Senforia finished the entire plate of food and left the room satisfied.
After cleaning the dishes on the table, Mark sat back on the sofa and picked up the book on the table to continue reading.
Soon, it was late at night. Mark opened the last book.
This was a very strange book. There was no teaching content inside, but some legendary figures were introduced!
The title of the book was [Legendary Heroes].
Flipping to the first page, there were many heroic figures that had once appeared in the continent of Connors.
There were only a few pages in the catalog. When he turned the last page, Mark saw two familiar names.
At first, he thought that it was just a coincidence, but after flipping through it, he clearly saw a picture of his grandfather and father.
When the dragons of the Connors Continent flooded the lands, his grandfather had killed seven Calamity-grade Evil Dragons.
His father had killed the Demon King alone in the battle against the Demon Race more than ten years ago.
Seeing these contents, Mark finally understood why his father had not allowed him to use his surname!
If Mark used his family name now, it was very likely that he would attract a large number of enemies.
On the other hand, using this surname could allow Mark to obtain endless resources. This would make him unable to grow naturally!
Only at this moment did Mark understand his father’s good intentions.
“I see! I was wondering why Father had never mentioned anything about his past identity to me.”
Closing the book, Mark leaned back on the sofa and closed his eyes to rest for a while. Then, he fell asleep on the soft sofa.
At dawn, Mark woke up from the couch.
Opening his eyes, he looked at the clock on the wall and realized that it was 4:30 in the morning.
He quickly stood up and went to the bathroom. After cleaning up his appearance, he arrived at the backyard at five o’clock to train.
The intensity of the training was as usual. However, as the quality of his equipment improved significantly, his training was even more useful than before.
Although the current Mark could not sign a contract with a magical beast, his current physical toughness and magic power storage had already surpassed that of ordinary people.
Not far away, the elite guard saw that Mark was training on time and looked at him.
Because she had not slept the entire night, she did not use her peripheral vision and quickly attracted the attention of Mark, who was training.
“I’ve finally found you! I want to see who’s secretly observing me?”
Glancing at the nearby forest, Mark picked up the weapon he had placed nearby.
He chased after the dense forest.
When the Imperial Shadow Guard saw this scene, she could not help but be shocked by Mark. She had not expected this man to be so sensitive.
She had only taken a glance at him and he discovered her location!
Helpless, she could only jump away from the tree. Even so, she could still feel a pair of fierce beast eyes staring at her from behind!
“No way! I don’t have any animosity towards you. There’s no need to chase me like this!”
With that, she used the magic communication device at her waist to summon another guard to secretly protect the princess.
Then, she cast several support spells on herself and quickened her pace, preparing to shake off Mark.
However, she quickly discovered a problem. No matter how quickly she fled, she could not escape from the pursuit of the man behind her.
Under such circumstances, she could only choose to talk to this man!
Thinking of this, she turned around and stopped, waiting for Mark to come.
Mark, who was following behind, relied on his instincts to chase after her. He did not know if there was anyone ahead.
However, his sixth sense clearly told him which direction to go. This was also the reason why the Imperial Shadow Guard could not shake Mark off.
After a few minutes, Mark stopped, for he sensed danger in the trees ahead.
With his left hand, he unsheathed the short sword at his waist and placed his right hand on the hilt!
After locking onto the black figure in the tree, Mark immediately attacked, but after seeing that the other party did not seem to have any hostility, he relaxed and asked the person in the tree, “Who are you?”
“Ever since that time in the tavern, I have felt an unfamiliar gaze watching me.”
“Is that you?”
After hearing Mark’s words, the Shadow Guard on the tree was stunned. He had discovered it since the tavern!
Moreover, he had always sensed that she was observing him during this period of time!
‘What kind of monstrous senses does he have? No wonder I couldn’t escape after running for so long!’
The black-clothed Shadow Guard jumped down from the tree and stood in front of Mark. She explained, “Please put down the weapon in your hand!”
“I have no ill intentions!”
“Observing you was an accident. My main purpose was to protect Senforia!”
“I was guarding her as she slept this morning, but because you woke up very early, I looked over slightly.”
“I didn’t expect you to sense my existence!”
“As an elite, I’m very ashamed. I hope you can forget what happened today!”
After hearing the other party’s words, Mark could not help but feel awkward. So it was Senforia’s guard.
“So it’s a huge misunderstanding. I’m already familiar with your observation range, so please don’t worry, I’ll try to avoid you in the future!”
With that said, Mark turned and left the forest, returning to the backyard to continue training.
The Shadow Guard, who was about to leave, could not help but roll her eyes. This man actually said he was familiar with her observation range?
Was this something that could be easily detected?
It was already very difficult to locate her, much less identify the range!
This made her recall the monstrous man that she had met when she was young!
Within a certain range, that man could detect all gazes directed towards him.
This was not shocking enough. The most terrifying thing was that he could sense every emotion, hostility, and killing intent from these people!
At the time, she thought that it was just a joke. In the end, she got many people to do experiments.
Every time, that man would accurately pinpoint their location and describe the entire process!
Later, this man defeated the Demon King alone and became the strongest Legendary Hero!
The figure of Mark turning to leave made her think of that man, because the two of them looked quite alike!
