Waking up the next day it was time for Marcus and Lilia to leave, as Marcus needed to get back to the capital to participate in the kingdom's tournament and hopefully win the valuable rewards being offered.
"On behalf of the village I thank you once again Irene and Lilia for all you have done for us even when you did not have to." The village chief said with gratitude in his eyes.
"It was no problem; I was just returning your kindness so think nothing of it. Also, should you ever need anything from me, just send a letter to the address I gave you and I will come as fast as I can."
After saying their goodbyes to the entire village Marcus and Lilia climbed up onto their carriage that was being pulled by Blitz, and with one last look at the people gathered to see them off, began their journey back to the kingdom's capital.
