Anna took a look at the mission while Noel asked Shale, "I have a question. How do we inform you that we've finished the mission? I mean, there are missions that requires three months from traveling to the mission itself. Won't it be too much if we can't pick another mission in the meantime simply because the time limit has gone due?"

"The system doesn't work that way. Our request is usually connected to either paranormal activity or demons. So, the request itself is not from an average person. Hence, there is one big requirement to request our assistance." Shale raised two fingers before continuing.

"You're required to agree to write a proof of completion as well as a report to us. This way, we'll know that the request has been completed and you can turn in the proof of completion later."

Noel glanced at the catalog and realized that according to Shale, the report would allow the fort to take down the mission. And the proof of completion was the record of the person that completed the mission.

Now that he saw this, the places that were a bit far from the fort would have the instruction to meet a certain person. It seemed this person was the one responsible to the mission.

"Of course, to send the report as well as write the proof requires them to be someone wealthy. So, I'd like to ask you to not receive any money from them because the fort has received the compensation. If it's found that you're misusing your ability to extort them, the fort will send someone to punish you."

"I know that." Noel nodded with a serious face. He'd never do something like that.

"Lastly, they usually give you a place to stay and something to eat. Though, you may want to bring some money. It's easy for you to get your money. Just kill a demon in the forest and sell the crystal."

"Still, we can choose not to stay in the place they reserve for us, right?" Noel narrowed his eyes.

"There are many cases like that. So, you don't need to be worry about it. It's just they won't provide a free stay and meal." Shale confirmed. It seemed Noel had a trust issue. He had even thought the possibility of the sudden betrayal of the provider.

"That's enough." Noel thanked him for the explanation.

As if she was waiting for their talk to be over, Anna immediately handed the catalog and pointed at a mission. "I think this mission is good."

Noel furrowed his eyebrows while looking at the map provided in the book.

Mission: Bandit and Demon Suspicion.

Description: There is an indication that a bandit group is using the demon to destroy a village. Go to Sheikzel Village and meet the village chief to understand the situation.

Reward: 800 Contribution Points

Time Limit: 10 Days.

"This is a group mission." Noel furrowed his eyebrows. "With a rough calculation, we need around five days to reach that village…"

"Yes. So, how about doing the group mission first before the individual one?" Anna asked while adding inwardly, 'I can't let this bandit group go. It must be the Iron Bar Bandit. They were catching demons and releasing it to attack the villages so that they could raid the village without getting blamed for the attack.

'In the past, this method is passed down to other bandit groups, causing many devastation to villages. Well, I'm not sure about the details, but the fact that this mission is here means that the difficulty is not that high. I don't think the enemy is stronger than an Advanced Level Demon.'

Noel contemplated before agreeing to this mission. "Sure. I don't mind."

"Great." Anna smiled before choosing her own individual mission.

Noel picked a mission near the Master Blacksmith's location since he wanted to create an armor. Although it was three days away from the location, they were still within his expectation.

"I choose this mission then." Noel showed Shale the mission.

"Alright."

Mission: Demon Extermination

Description: A group of demons are spotted near the river and stopping the people from fishing. Please meet the village chief of Sothbame Village to get more information.

Reward: 200 Contribution Points

Time Limit: 30 Days

Shale recorded it first and said, "Alright. When are you planning to leave? You can go to the stable and get a horse. As long as the horse doesn't have any disability or die, you don't need to compensate. Although it's only for a while, I do have taught you horse riding. It shouldn't be a problem for you to ride a horse, right?"

"Yes, but I prefer to run to that place. Do you mind?" Noel asked.

"Huh?" The statement stunned both Anna and Shale as they looked at Noel dumbfoundedly.

Noel glanced at Anna and said, "If we're going on a mission, I want to run to reach there. I don't mind if you are riding the horse or even reach there earlier than me. I'm simply going to train while traveling."

"…" Anna was speechless. On one hand, she praised Noel for his dedication to get stronger. On the other hand, he looked like a fool who only had training in his mind.

Little did she know, Noel only thought about completing his training so that he got more bonus strength from the system.

"Well, that will put me in an awkward situation." Anna shook her head helplessly while pinching the bridge of her nose, troubled. "I should have expected something like this. Well, I don't mind running since I can focus on training too…"

"Are you sure? You don't need to do it with me. In fact, this is why I want the group mission to be the last."

"So I can just ride back home?"

"Yes."

"No. It's fine. I'll run together with you. If I need a ride, I can buy a horse in a nearby city."

"Are you sure about this? It will cost you a lot of money, no?"

"Do you think I'm a person with money trouble?"

"…" Noel shook his head.

"That's it. So, if I want to ride a horse, I can simply buy one on the way."

"Well, thank you for putting up with my stubbornness."

"Mhm." Anna nodded, not realizing that this was the first time Noel thanked her. She later regretted for getting too occupied with Noel's weirdness and forgot to tease him that time. Nonetheless, Anna agreed with the condition and asked Shale to record their missions.
