The Hunter System
Chapter 218 - Taking the Quest
As the entire army from the neighboring village had been killed, the troops from the village where Mina came from finally returned to the fortress with a triumphant cheer.
Know if the identity of the slayer will be exposed from the gift that must have been sent automatically to the house of the slaughterer, the villagers who had been in the battle area finally went around the village to find a house that must have been 'flooded with gifts'.
"We will soon find out who has killed all enemy forces" said one of the Mages who had received suspicious looks from his colleagues.
He was the strongest Mage among all the Mages who fought from the top of the fortress.
'Why don't they trust me? Why would I hide my power if I did it?'
.........
Unlike the fighters of different races, some fighters of the human race, especially Ronald Stewart and Wang Zhu Ming, could already guess who the perpetrators of the massacre were.
Aside from Mina confessing, they know that Mina and Alvin are two humans who have just come to this planet.
The magic that left the entire enemy army dead had never been seen before. Other than a new person, there could be no old person who would bother to hide such great magic for a long period of time.
"Uncle, I saw it from the top of the fortress... Is that them? Two guys just sent here?" whispered Steven Stewart, Ronald's nephew, who died with the middle-aged man in the trap of Chris Maxwell.
Ronald nodded slowly.
"Where are they? Has anyone seen them?" zhu Ming asked his comrades who came from the human world.
"Liu Gong saw them" said Mira Ahn, Ronald's former personal assistant.
Zhu Ming looked around. "And where's Liu Gong?"
"He told me he was going to follow them" said Jester Bailey. He was a healer who died with Wang Zhu Ming in the trap of Chris Maxwell.
"Do you have a need with him?" ask Ronald.
"We must bring him into our group" Zhu Ming said.

Arriving inside the tower, Mina read through the quest on the notice board before finally going to the mini bar guarded by a beautiful elf figure.
While talking to the elf, Mina flipped through a book that was in front of her.
Alvin looked at the surprised expression of the female elves as Mina pointed several times at the quest book sheets that the female elves gave her.
They seemed to be arguing small and only stopped after another elf came and showed a metal slab the size of a picture book on the female elf.
Although there was not a single word of their chat that Alvin could understand, but the sight was very entertaining.
Alvin almost laughed as he saw the two female elves' eyes widen after staring at the metal slab.
"What is Mina's achievement after taking out all the enemies from other villages?" alvin thought, guessing the contents of the plate.
.........
After putting some of the quest plates into the leather bag, Mina left the bar and approached Alvin who was standing near the main door of the tower.
On his way, Alvin sees Mina suddenly stopping her footsteps for a few seconds before continuing to walk towards him.
"Is there a problem?"
"With them?"
"You suddenly stopped for a moment."
"The vision that was sent to my head just ended, I'm just kind of surprised."
"That vision's been sent since?"
Mina grunts violently.
"Yes. There is so much information about this planet that goes into my head incessantly. Until I can throw up."
Sighs...
"If it happens to me maybe I'll go crazy."
Mina smiled. "Then don't be dead."
"..."
"Let's go back to my house. We'll rest before morning."
Alvin frowned, astonished at the word 'rest' that Mina had just said. "You need a break?"
"..."
"You want to ambush that guy here?" Mina asked back.
Alvin finally understood what Mina meant behind her words. "Let's talk to her all right."
Alvin also noticed that there was a man who had been watching Mina since the man walked past her near the main door.
From the look in his eyes, the man looked so sad.
......................
"Do you know him?" ask Alvin on the way.
Alvin and Mina always spoke in a very low tone when around other creatures.
This was done in order to keep the secret of Alvin who could not speak the language of the planet because all beings spoke only one language except in a team battle.
"I don't remember. Maybe he's been dead long enough."
"But he seems to know you in his last life."
Mina grunts.
"He had too many friends in his youth."
"Are you not?"
"I began to meet a lot of people at the age of 40."
Alvin.
"You want me to slap?"
"...No."
"You yourself probably wouldn't have a friend if you were still an F rank hunter."
Alvin smiled bitterly. What Mina said was most likely to happen if she was still what she used to be.
......................
The two fell silent for quite a while after almost arriving at Mina's house.
Many villagers crowded around the simple house, like witnessing something that attracted attention.
Mina then spoke to the people who had their backs on them, and the men gave her a way.
"What's this?" alvin asked as soon as they arrived in the middle of the crowd.
There are a lot of wooden boxes there. The boxes were neatly arranged from a rocky path all the way into the fence of Mina's modest house.
"Gift from killing those people earlier," Mina said with a flat expression.
"Wouldn't this much food go stale?"
Mina laughed, making all the creatures that were swarming around her house startled and turned to her almost simultaneously.
That's when they realize that Mina is a fighter who makes troops from neighboring villages destroyed.
Some beings immediately greeted and invited Mina to shake hands.
Among them are creatures who were initially accused of having hidden powers. He then spoke to his accusers and saw the accusers apologizing to the Mage who was from the orc race.
Mina then spoke to the villagers who crowded the street in front of her house while pointing towards the food cribs.
Alvin saw the change in their expressions from being initially shocked to being very surprised, until finally happiness emanated from their expressions and gestures.
Then, very neatly, the villagers began to come forward and take the boxes that were along the road in front of the fence of Mina's house.
One creature takes only one box, nothing more than that. They also bowed her body to Mina as a thank you before taking her crib away.
'So in this world is the only food they are looking for? They seemed very happy just by receiving a box of food.'
Alvin recalled, on Earth people will only expand like those creatures when receiving large amounts of money.
