9 Rebirth
When he heard the system's reply, he doesn't know whether to laugh or cry right now.
-----
[Rebirth] Host reverts back to level 1 but with improved physique, attributes, unlocks Demon skills, and system upgrade. The system will now be 10% faster in creating skills. The Host will keep his current stats and skills retaining their levels.
*Warning! The host will experience immense pain as you undergo this procedure. The system bids you good luck and don't die.*
--------
"Reverts me back to level 1? Are you shitting me system? Will I have to undergo this procedure again in the future? Damn it, my Levels."
[Host must not worry. This will only happen again when you reached level 200,300,400...all the way to 900. Level 900 is your last [Rebirth].]
[If for example host has reached level 200, you will revert to level 100. Meaning, each [Rebirth] will drop you 100 levels so host can calm yourself.] the system further explained.
"Whew, so it's like the private RPG servers I played back then. I thought I'll be stuck in a loop and always be level 1 or something." finally sighed in relief.
"System, how long is this going to happen?" he asked the system back.
[Host will be out of commission for 3-5 days. Host also needs to be in a remote location to prevent any unwanted attention should you invoke a phenomenon during your [Rebirth].]
"Well I guess I'll go find a secluded place after I reached the capital. Maybe go to some forbidden areas here on Midgard when I read some maps or books there."
"Now to check my total earnings on this hunt.Hehe."
he system showed that he earned 12,795 SCP, 4 million gold, and he unlocked 2 more slots in skill creation. Now with a total of 9 slots he began thinking of skills again, this time his trump cards.

Now all his creation slots are taken, he's now left with 7,085 SCP. Satisfied of what he had done he returns to sleep.
Unbeknownst to him, the Princess and Fatty Lin felt the magical disturbance of the fight despite being kilometers away. Their magic sensory managed to detect it. Their innate ability as an elf really comes in handy.
"Should we send someone now to check the place Princess? I think the fight is already over." Fatty Lin nervously asked.
"No, not now. There might be other people attracted to the fight and we might get in trouble if we are spotted. Do it tomorrow morning instead. We will continue to rest here for the night." ordered the Princess.
"Yes your highness." bowed Fatty Lin.
-----
The next morning.
"Iefyr, what have you guys found out?" Fatty Lin asked the mercenary leader.
"Sir we searched the whole area, we found no dead bodies. We all think is safe to cross the forest since there are no traps along the way." Iefyr replied.
"Very well, tell everyone it's time to move. Let's go around it just to be safe."
"Yes sir!."
Fatty Lin went back inside the carriage and informed the princess about the group's findings.
"Princess, what do you think of these? Everything around was destroyed. They also found a mound of rocks signifies that it was a summoned Earth Golem."
"To take down a big Earth Golem is no easy feat. You also said that there is earth everywhere. You know that Earth Golems can regenerate their lost parts when they are in the ground. There are three ways to kill it; One, It was lifted above and away from the ground to stop its regeneration ability and destroyed it midair. Two it was destroyed by a powerful magic that can destroy it faster than it can regenerate. Or three, the summoner was killed and the golem collapse."
"We can remove the third possibility because killing the caster while inside and protected by the golem is near impossible to achieve. The protection around the caster is the greatest as it is also the core of the golem."
"Yes you are right Princess. But the most peculiar thing about the report is that the golem parts are either sliced or smashed to pieces. It must be a really great fight between masters."
"Yes and since it involves Masters, let's put that at the back of our minds for now. We still haven't arrived at the Empire's capital. Order them to make haste. I don't want to miss the deadline of the enrollment."
"Ah! The enrollment on that academy. Pardon me Princess, but we Elves are the best at magic. I don't understand why you want to enroll in a human academy. We also had the best schools back at Lundvǫllr. We Elves prided ourselves as the best magical race in all MIdgard."
"Yes we are, but only here at Midgard. We are still average compared to other beings in the Nine Realms in talks of Magic and the Humans might overtake us sooner or later as well. Our people that ascended to Alfheim still can't beat the Dark Elves despite our years of knowledge in the field."
"Also remember that Humans were the first creature to appear in Midgard since the creation of the Nine Realms. They might be late in learning magic, but they progress fast in developing them. Thank goodness that they allowed us Elves to study there despite our overwhelming pride as a race that is best in Magic. It's now time to lower down our pride because we don't know when we will get destroyed just because of our hubris."
"I understand. Thank you Princess for your wisdom. It will help me understand humans more in the future because of this conversation."
"Nah. It's fine. Let's just focus on our trip. We don't want any unnecessary delays as we are now tight on schedule."
-----
Finally six days later. They arrived at a huge gate with high towers at both ends. Numerous guards at the walls from wizards to magical warriors, and at the distance Mage towers can be seen.
People are in line at the gate for inspections. While waiting, Nemesis peaked outside and saw all of it.
"Ahh finally, Burðrheimr. The birth lands of humans, the center of Midgard." Nemesis exclaimed.
