He opened the bag with the huge bear head and raised it in his hand, saying to everyone, “Look, the murderer who killed many of our compatriots is finally dead!”

When everyone saw the huge bear head in his hand, many people in the crowd cried.

Originally, Mark wanted to leave the village as soon as possible, but under such circumstances, there was no way to stop them.

Looking at these people who were crying with joy and a few who were covering their faces, Mark could only bring the carriage driver to the side.

“I’ll rest for a while. You can wake me up at noon!”

The carriage driver nodded happily, then rushed to the villagers and cheered.

Originally, Mark thought that a simple celebration would be enough. He did not expect this banquet to continue until late at night.

The next morning, he left the village with a large basket of local produce.

When he returned to the city, the sun was about to set. The carriage driver sent Mark to the entrance of the dormitory before waving at him to leave.

Mark, who was carrying a backpack, had a large basket of various local products and returned to his residence with the dried bear head.

He had just reached the entrance to the courtyard when Senforia appeared beside him.

Mark turned and glanced at her. She was dressed in light combat clothes and seemed about to go on a mission.

“Hey, I’ve been waiting for you for a few days. I didn’t expect you to stay out for three days!”

Wait for me?

Mark was very confused, “Why are you waiting for me?”

Senforia took out a bounty scroll and placed it in front of him, “I recently accepted a high reward mission!”

“It involves fighting a group of monsters, but I just entered the academy yesterday and can’t find any teammates.”

“The only person I know is you, so I would like to ask you to complete this mission with me!”

Mark carefully looked at the bounty scroll in her hand and realized that this was an A+ mission!

However, the reward was abnormally generous, causing Mark, who lacked money, to be tempted.

Taking advantage of Mark’s daze, Senforia reached out with her other hand and took out a fruit from the basket in front of him.

She wiped it on her clothes and chewed on it.

“Wow! It’s delicious. Where did you bring this back?”

“I didn’t expect to be able to eat such delicious mountain fruits here!”

After regaining his senses, Mark looked down at the fruit in her hand and replied, “This was given to me by the villagers when I came back from a mission in Gwei Village!”

“You can bring some over if you like. I can’t finish so many.”

Senforia put away the bounty scroll, took a few fruits from him, and put them in her bag.

Then, she asked, “How about it? I’ll give you half of this mission’s reward.”

“Are you interested?”

Mark did not reply. He opened the door and led her into his house.

After putting down everything in his hand, he replied, “To be honest, this mission reward is very tempting!”

“But I’m not short of money now, so I don’t want to go.”

With that, he washed a few fruits at the sink not far from the living room, cleaned the skin, and placed the cut fruits into a bowl.

Carrying this bowl, Mark went to the living room and placed it on the coffee table.

“I’m sorry, I haven’t been in this room for long. I don’t even know where the teacups are!”

“I saw that you especially liked this kind of fruit, so I picked a few different types. The taste is similar to a mountain fruit. I hope you like it!”

Senforia had always thought that Mark lived in a poor village and had not thought of him as being so polite.

As she ate the fruit, she began to think. How could she trick Mark into doing this mission?

Seeing Senforia’s expression, Mark most likely guessed that he had to go this time. He sat on the soft sofa and stared blankly for a few seconds.

He asked Senforia, who was still thinking of a solution, “How long do you think it will take for the two of us to complete this mission?”

Hearing this, Senforia immediately sat up and thought for a moment, “About four days. We can rush back on the day school begins!”

“Alright, alright, I’ll go with you!”

“Otherwise, you will not leave my room easily today.”

Hearing Mark’s words, Senforia smiled, revealing her white teeth.

“Then let’s go? I’ve already prepared the carriage!”

“Alright, before we leave, let’s go to the guild first. I want to submit my mission first!”

With that, Mark stood up and went to the kitchen sink. He placed the basket of unwashed fruits into the kitchen’s storage box.

With the bear head in hand, he led Senforia to her carriage and headed for the guild.

After submitting the mission, before the receptionist at the counter could say anything to Mark, Senforia pulled him into the car.

Senforia drove the carriage as they headed east towards the Gut Mountains that Mark had come from.

Late at night, they finally reached the Gut Mountains, and Mark had fallen asleep because he had been running around recently.

After the carriage stopped, Mark sat up and got out.

Glancing around, he found that they were already in the middle of the Gut Mountain Range.

In the grass around the desolate land, if one looked carefully, they could see countless shining eyes of wild beasts.

Seeing this scene, Mark frowned. He did not expect Senforia to directly drive the carriage into the midst of the monsters.

“Senforia!” Just as he was about to shout at her, the greedy magical beasts in the surrounding wilderness surrounded her.

Before they could get close, Mark had already completed his support magic.

He pulled out the sword at his waist and carefully used his magic to cover a distance of more than ten meters.

At the same time, he was also observing the movements of Senforia not far away!

Her voice quickly came from nearby, “I’m really sorry! I was too excited and forgot to rest before entering!”

Hearing this, Mark roughly knew her adventurer level. She had just entered the industry!

What confused him was why such a rookie could receive such a dangerous reward!

At this moment, there was no time for Mark to think about this. The surrounding magical beasts had already entered his attack range.

Because the aura that Mark emitted was too great, these wild creatures were afraid and came up to test him one by one.

At this moment, Mark showed no mercy. He decisively killed whoever came close.

But soon, something felt amiss!

More and more magical beasts surrounded them. There were already three layers inside and three layers outside, completely enveloping the two of them.
