Travel to another world and become a monster messenger

Sergio said this in a serious manner, which made Xu Zhen stunned. He looked up at Lim and the Forest Guardian lying quietly in his arms, felt a slight movement, and then raised his head again.

"——Okay." Xu Zhen answered firmly, and Sergio nodded with satisfaction.

Then, Xu Zhen led the monsters into the house, but Dorothy had some questions in her mind: "I'm sorry, there's only one thing. The monster in your arms..."

Xu Zhen heard Dorothy's words and looked down. Lim and the forest guardian were sleeping comfortably inside. Because he already knew Lim's situation, Xu Zhen guessed that she might be asking about the forest guardian.

“This is the Forest Guardian. I just tamed it.”

“Is that so…huh!?”

Just as he nodded to show his understanding, Dorothy's scream resounded throughout the room. Although he was surprised, Xu Zhen showed a confused expression.

"Be quiet. These guys will be woken up!"

"Ah, sorry...wait, isn't this the point? Forest Guardian, isn't this the guardian of our village..."

"Yes, but what does it matter?" Xu Zhen answered impatiently, but Dorothy was stunned. While she was wondering what was going on, Sergio sighed and said he would take care of it, so Xu Zhen and his party walked into the room.

I heard Dorothy's panicked voice behind me: "Oh, what should I do... I don't think there's any need to panic like that."

"Don't worry about it. It's best not to think about it." Xu Zhen muttered, and Lati yawned and replied: "...That's right."

Although thinking so, Xu Zhen still smiled bitterly.

------------

In the southeastern forest, many wild monsters have gone berserk.

Now that night has fallen, the monsters' eyes are flashing a terrifying red light. Even adventurers of a certain level can't help but want to stop.

However, none of the adventurers showed any sign of retreating.

Many indeed hesitated for a moment, but once they decided to fight, their fear disappeared, and they defeated the monsters with shouts of courage and determination.

The sounds of the monsters were replaced by the dull thud of swords swinging, the explosion of magic, and the shouts of the adventurers.

Of course, Alicia and Courtney with Cece are no exception.

“Wow! —!”

As Oliver shouted, he swung his sword and cut the wild monster in half. This was a truly fierce momentum. Even long-time companions like Alicia and Jill couldn't help but be attracted by this momentum.

(Oliver is really impressive.)

(He wants to rescue Russell himself.)

Alicia and Jill had the same thought at almost the same time. Although they didn't have the same momentum as Oliver, they were undoubtedly more involved than usual.

It was true that a little carelessness could mean the risk of life, but more importantly, they all had a strong desire to save Russell.

Because they had been together for a long time. Because they recognized him as a leader. As a partner, they had to handle the commotion properly. These were all valid reasons, but they were not the most important ones.

Because Russell was in danger, they had to save him. It was that simple. It was beyond logic. Of course, they wouldn't have such thoughts about a complete stranger. It was the deep friendship accumulated over the years that drove them.

Looking at Alicia and the others' performance, Courtney was surprised and envious at the same time.

He had not yet formed such a deep relationship with anyone. Although he had friends like Xu Zhen, it was still far from the depth of the four people like Alicia. He gritted his teeth and thought.

Then, Courtney realized again how upset she was.

It has been nearly half a year since I met Xu Zhen. Since then, they have traveled together for about two months. But it is still far from enough. Compared with the time they have spent together in years, it is nothing.

They had spent different amounts of time together. There was no point in being anxious. He thought he understood this. But he couldn't control his emotions. The power contained in the magic was also stronger because of this, which was natural in a sense.

"ha!"

Courtney waved her hands, releasing wind magic that blew away a forest bear that was larger than usual, which made Cece unable to hide her surprise.

"So strong! Courtney you are really strong!"

“Oh, it’s not working yet.”

“Don’t be modest, please.”

Although Courtney's answer was from the heart, it was clear that Cece didn't get it. Realizing that correction was useless, Courtney could only smile bitterly.

Then, Ceci stepped out and began to work magic: "I want to work hard too... Now it's time to show the results of my training!"

The huge fire magic cast by Cece engulfed the approaching monster.

Practice at the training ground made her more stable and stronger than ever. What was once a little dangerous became reliable and significantly stronger. It was obvious that she had practiced hard at the training ground, and Courtney couldn't help but be shocked.

"That's amazing... you've reached this level."

“It is also thanks to the help of other magicians. I am really grateful to them.”

Said Cece, smiling as she was surrounded by flames. She was no longer the panicking type. She was now able to control her magic quite well and was full of confidence. She was undoubtedly a true mage.

Seeing this, Courtney couldn't help but push harder.

(I have to work harder too... I need to get stronger!)

Suddenly, a wild monster jumped out. Courtney was not surprised at all, and performed wind magic with full momentum as if taking a new step.

The monster that was blown away collided with the new monster that jumped out, and then there was silence. The monster was approaching Alicia, and Alicia gently raised her hand to express her gratitude to Courtney.

Courtney smiled and nodded in response, and then there was a rustling in the bushes. Courtney was about to deal with another monster when a figure suddenly jumped out.

"Ha ha!"

A disheveled young adventurer fell to his knees, panting. Courtney opened his eyes wide and hurried over to the young man.

"How are you?"

"Ah, ah... not bad."

It seemed that he finally decided that he had escaped to a safe place, and the young man smiled. Then Cece came running with herbs, and Alicia and the other two also arrived. After treating the wound, Courtney asked about the young man's condition.

“Are there such powerful monsters over there?”

“No! That’s…Russell!”

The moment this shout was uttered, the five people's eyes widened in unison.

"The others were also defeated! They were completely unable to resist! They were no longer human or monsters! They were demons without blood or tears!!"
