"I'm sorry, you may be disappointed, but the reward for this mission is actually five gold coins per person, and all I can say is that the commissioners of the Miller Tavern are not familiar with the power of mountain trolls, and they think it's just a normal monster hunt, so there's no extra pay.

Hermione said as she glanced down at the reward recorded in the mission.

"Only 5 gold coins, so I'm curious why Miss Marlena took on this task, and the risk and reward are not equal. ”

Watson looked at Marlena suspiciously, he had thought that this task should be richly rewarded to make this demon hunter's disciple take a fancy to him.

"I don't care how much they give, this quest is just to improve my demon hunting level, I just need a certain part of the troll's body. ”

"It won't be ......"

After two years with his father, Watson's mind also deteriorated a little, and a woman's suggestion that he wanted a certain part of the troll's body immediately made him think about it.

"Can you please stop thinking of me as dirty as you do? I want the flesh and blood crystals in the hearts of trolls, which according to the books say can be used to improve the quality of wands. ”

"I see...... So, has Miss Marlena considered making some compensation to me, after all, the task that seems worthwhile to you is not of much benefit to me, so I hope to get some extra reward from you, as if I were doing you a favor?"

Although he is very hungry for the soul of a troll, of course Watson will not say it at this time, he can see that Marlena is determined to get what is in the heart of the troll, so now is naturally a good opportunity to rip off the money.

"A supper!"

"Huh?"

"I'll treat you to dinner, you can choose the place yourself!"

"Forget it...... I'll find out if there are any other tasks. ”

There was a feeling in Marina's words that it was Watson's honor to have dinner with her, but Watson said that she was thinking too much, and that although she was indeed beautiful, she was not to the point of being swoon, and that it was okay to take such a risk for a dinner.

"I was actually rejected, and the teacher clearly said that this trick was very useful......"

"Huh?"

Sensing Marina's squirming lips as if whispering something, Watson couldn't help but ask.

"Nothing, and what do you want?"

The rejection of her idea made a trace of panic flash in Marina's eyes, but it was immediately well covered up by a cold look.

"I don't need any pay, but I want you to help me in my future missions for the same free once, and of course I'll make sure that the mission I let you help with is not more difficult than the mountain troll is now more difficult for us, what do you think?"

Rather than asking for some gold coins, Watson wanted more than a promise that he might become a high-level mage in the future, which was worth more than a few gold coins.

"Okay, I promise you, but if this mission fails......"

"If it fails, then it's when I haven't said those things. ”

"It seems that your cooperation is going well, this is the location of the troll carjacking provided by Miller's Tavern and the mission scroll handed over by the Mercenary Guild, which of you holds it?"

Hermione pulled a map and a quest scroll from the folder and handed them to the two of them.

"You take it, and I'll leave it to you to find a location, and I'll only be in charge of fighting. ”

Watson reached out to take the map and was about to speak, when Marina said right behind him in a tone that made him feel weird.

"Okay, let me see...... The mountain trolls and the truckloads were located in a wasteland just outside the city of Wildas' East City, about ...... away It's a two-hour journey, and it looks like we'll have to go to the stables outside the city and rent two horses, or we'll have to work hard just to get there. ”

In fact, the target location is not too far from the East City District, but Watson considered that because it has not yet been developed, the road outside the city is not easy to walk, and the place where the truck was intercepted is not on the side of the main road, so there may be some places when you are in a hurry, you have to look at the map provided by Miller's Tavern to find the way, so he deliberately estimated the time to travel longer.

"You lead the way, I don't know where the stables are. ”

Although Marlena said this in a natural tone, Watson still gave her a strange look, but he didn't speak, and stood up from his chair and motioned for her to follow him.

"Marlena, you...... Guys, don't be angry, that's what I guessed. ”

Walking out of the guild and seeing that there was no one next to him, Watson suddenly asked his conjecture in a low voice, but immediately saw that a look of shame flashed on Marina's face.

"How do you know!"

"I know more than that, I think it should be your mentor who told you to be as indifferent as possible when you are out alone, right? Some of your flaws should also be hidden, otherwise you may be despised by others, and your indifferent appearance can increase your voice and the convincing power of your words......"

"You, how do you know......"

At this time, Marina's face could no longer hold back, and the cold expression on her face collapsed at once, and then she asked the same question again.

"It's very simple, because my mentor said the same thing to me when he taught me, and I know that your mentor must have taught you these things recently, I had the same problem as you when I first learned how to make a cold face, which is that my face will be a little stiff when it comes to covering up my flaws......"

"So you're like me, that's great, so I don't have to play anymore, it's so tiring. ”

The indifferent look that faded from the disguise and showed the original appearance of Marina's temperament suddenly changed dramatically, and the gap was like a poodle turning into a husky......

"Hey, you've changed a bit big, no wonder your mentor wants you to pretend to be indifferent, if you go out in ordinary clothes like this, no one will think that you are a knowledgeable mage and more like a pampered aristocratic lady. ”

While walking out of town, Watson reluctantly pulled back Marina, who was curiously looking at both sides of the street and running over to take a look from time to time, and suddenly regretted why he had exposed her before, it was better to let her go down so coldly, it would definitely save a lot of trouble.

Not far from the outskirts of Dongcheng District, there is a horse farm for horse rentals for travelers, and after paying the deposit, Watson picked one at random and then helped Marlena pick one, and then dragged her out of the horse farm when the latter complained that he had to pick a cute horse.
