The balance of Geralt's bounty was funded by Baron Ham's territory, and after Eliza marries King Aivelle, the king's gift money would cover this expenditure.
Having received his due pay, Geralt prepared to continue his career as a Demon Hunter, traveling the continent to take commissions and hunt monsters.
He rode on his horse Carrot through the cold wind, departing from Ham.
Lann, however, showed no intention of parting ways with him.
"What do you want?" Geralt raised his head and tilted his gaze toward the bear cub beside him. "Two Demon Hunters taking jobs together only happens when one is an apprentice. It's simply not profitable. Although we get along fairly well, don't expect me to lose money by traveling with you."
Lann was already half a head taller than Geralt, while Bopai was also slightly taller than Carrot.
Overall, now both on horseback, Lann's shoulder was level with Geralt's forehead.
"Profit is a minor concern," Lann smiled humbly.
