Travel to another world and become a monster messenger

"No. If that were the case, I would have taken action a long time ago."

“…That’s true.”

Sergio thought as he spoke, and then came up with a hypothesis: "So, this means... you were also set up?"

"It may be. Lesak used me to lure you, the elder, away from the village. So now he may..."

“They may have sneaked into the village. We need to go back quickly.”

"Yes." Jacklen nodded, and the moment he and Sergio turned their heads together - the bushes moved. Then a shadow jumped out.

“Gurgle…Gurgle!”

A killer wolf jumped out of the bushes and stared at Jacklun and the others. As if that was a signal, the other wild monsters gathered and appeared together.

A few seconds after turning around, the road was completely blocked. From the red light in the eyes of these monsters, it was easy to imagine that it was the dark power of Lesak that was driving them.

Jacklan tensed his body and a drop of cold sweat appeared on his cheek.

"Have all the monsters come out to greet us here? It was so quiet just now."

"It seems we have been completely fooled."

Sergio chuckled and gathered magic power in his hands.

"It doesn't look like there are any large monsters, but this number... is enough to stop us."

"And we are quite far from the village. It is almost impossible to return immediately."

“But we have no choice. To get back to the village as soon as possible!”

"Yes!"

Jacklun answered with a tense expression, and the two of them quickly rushed towards the monster, as if they wanted to dissipate the heavy anxiety in their actions.

After returning to the Elf Village, Xu Zhen and his companions were welcomed by Alicia and others. Amid the discussions of the surrounding adventurers, a figure ran towards Xu Zhen.

"Gulu!"

"Oh, you're back. Lim is refreshed too, that's great."

Xu Zhen happily picked up Lim who was running towards him. At the same time, Oliver took over Russell's body from the young swordsman and walked over with him on his back.

"Xu Zhen, thank you for saving our leader. I'll talk about etiquette later."

"It's okay, it's nothing." Xu Zhen replied immediately, and Oliver showed an embarrassed smile.

"It's not enough to just say thank you. You have to be serious. Anyway, thank you." Oliver said, and Jill ran over: "There is a place over there where he can rest. Let's take him there."

“Okay, sorry.”

After watching Oliver and Jill carrying Russell away, the young swordsman walked up to Xu Zhen and the others and said, "I'll leave first. I'm going to support Greg."

“Thank you. You helped us a lot.”

“It’s okay. Bye.”

The young swordsman accepted Xu Zhen's thanks and left with a shy smile. Then Alicia came over and said, "But, it's really great that you are all safe. I never thought I could really defeat Russell."

"Thanks to Foreo."

"Yes. Without it, I'm afraid we would still fail."

Latti's words were recognized by everyone, and Xu Zhen turned his gaze to Foreo who was sleeping peacefully in his arms.

Although he is worried about the serious injuries he received in the battle with Russell, according to Lati, Foreo's magic power is gradually recovering and he should be fine as long as he continues to rest.

Lim noticed the situation of Fureo, stared at it for a moment, and then gently placed her hand on it.

“Gurgle…”

A faint green light flowed from Lim's body into Foreo's body.

“Is this… magic?”

"Hmm. I think it was Lim who sent it."

Courtney and Alicia were talking in surprise, and the light on Lim gradually faded. When the light completely disappeared, Lati tried to touch Foreo's body and showed a surprised expression.

“It’s amazing. I’m more stable now than before. I feel totally fine.”

"Really? Thank you, Lim."

"Gurgle!" Lim smiled at Xu Zhen, and it also barked happily. Then the group walked towards Sergio's mansion.

They talked again about the battle with Russell and what Slakic is doing, and Courtney and others also understood Slakic's absence.

A trace of worry flashed through Xu Zhen's mind, but he didn't think Sergio would easily fall into danger.

After that, they decided to rest as soon as they got home. Then, the moment they arrived at the mansion -

"Hey! Adventurers who can move, assemble! There are more monsters!" An adventurer ran around the village and shouted.

Upon hearing the news, Alicia and Courtney looked at each other, nodded solemnly, and then turned to Xu Zhen and the others.

"Xu Zhen and the others are resting in the house. Let's go and take a look."

"The monsters are tired after the battle. Let them rest."

Xu Zhen and Lati looked at each other, then glanced at Foreo in his arms, and finally nodded to Alicia and the others: "Okay, that's it. Please."

Hearing this, Courtney and Alicia also smiled with relief.

"Well, let's go."

"Let's go~"

Alicia and Courtney turned and walked towards the entrance of the village where the adventurers gathered. Xu Zhen, who stayed behind, led the monsters into the house.

Dorothy seemed to be helping with the cooking, so the room was emptier than usual. Although there was a soldier waiting at the door, it was a little unusual that there was no one in the old elder's room.

"Why aren't any of the servants here? It feels a bit strange."

"It seems that everyone has been called to help with cooking."

This was what the soldier had told them before, sighing. Although there might be spies watching, there was no need for him to stay here, he complained.

Afterwards, Xu Zhen and the others walked towards the empty restaurant. Lati felt hungry after the transformation, so they took some fruit, washed it with water and ate it. Sure enough, even here, Lati's amazing appetite after the transformation was also revealed.

Xu Zhen couldn't help but sigh in admiration at how her small body could eat so much.

“Phew, my stomach is full.”

"That's good."

This is not surprising. Xu Zhen said as he finished drinking the water in the cup.

“I feel a little sleepy.”

“Gu…”

Loppel and Lati collapsed on the table. It was natural for them to feel tired after such a big battle. Xu Zhen and the monsters came to the room where they stayed in the village.
