Travel to another world and become a monster messenger

(The cause of the incident...is that the king proposed to perform a ritual to summon to another world.)

This was a real surprise. Of course, the four disagreed and tried to dissuade this stupid idea, but it was not adopted, especially since Esther was already extremely angry.

This is only natural, because the ritual of summoning another world requires a lot of magic power from the magician, and also requires sacrifice.

In order to prevent his men from dying in vain, Esther tried to use magic in front of the king. Nelson was surprised but did not stop him. If Esther had not done so, he would have certainly started to rage.

However, Esther's magic was interrupted just before it was released.

Someone used the Sealing Magic Tool. The users were the magicians under Esther. And this magic tool turned out to be a masterpiece developed by Esther himself.

In addition, a magical tool for blocking the action was also put into effect at the same time, and the four people were captured without any chance and were thrown into the dungeon according to the king's order.

Esther couldn't hide her shock. She felt guilty that she had used the magic tool she had made to catch thieves.

(Maybe, those magicians want to help Esther?)

As Nelson was being taken away, he secretly glanced at the faces of the magicians who were using the sealing magic tools. Their expressions were indeed reassuring smiles. It was as if they were saying, "Leave the rest to us."

(Ester really has good subordinates. It's not something that ordinary people can do to express their wish not to implicate their superiors.)

What would happen to his knights? Would they protect their leader like they did, not wanting to be implicated?

Although he absolutely did not want that to happen, he also felt somewhat happy. Nelson said with a sigh, feeling mixed emotions.

"Well, anyway...it seems that the summoning ritual to another world can no longer be stopped."

"That's right. My magic can't be used in this cell either." Esther said weakly while trying to cast magic on the wall. However, the magic was dissipated in an instant.

All the cells were set with magic barriers, and the developer of these barriers was Esther herself. In the final analysis, she was trapped by the magic she created.

There was nothing Esther could do. And, in this situation, no one could blame her. Obviously, no one could have predicted this situation.

Of course, when they were locked in the cell, their weapons were completely confiscated, so the only way to escape was to unlock the cell normally.

As for who holds the key to the cell—

“No one has the key except the one who is performing the ritual.”

"This only shows that the king has become very cautious. He has been busy for a long time preparing for this day."

Nelson and Esther sighed. Rick did the same, and he fell to the ground from his sitting position with his back against the wall.

"It seems that we have to stay here until this is over. Let's take this opportunity to have a good rest." Hearing what Rick said, Fana's face twisted a little: "...Brother, you are really shameless. You can actually relax in a place like this..."

"I want to relax because I've been so nervous lately."

Then the conversation stopped and a few minutes passed quietly.

There was the sound of the wind and birdsong, and what sounded like soldiers in the distance, but they were normal, everyday sounds, nothing special.

It was hard to believe that there would be a large-scale ceremony going on. The fact that they were being held like this seemed particularly unnatural in the silence, and this was a common thought in the minds of the four people.

“I… still can’t believe it.”

Fana suddenly whispered: "I didn't expect that I would have a younger sister..."

Her voice trembled slightly, and she sounded like she was crying. This was enough to see how complicated her emotions were. This was not surprising either. She was suddenly told that she had a half-sister.

If this was a secret of a noble or a king she had known for a long time, she might be able to accept it. After all, it was not uncommon for the royal family to have concubines and illegitimate children. Considering the issue of succession and maintaining the royal bloodline, some people thought it was reasonable to prepare concubines.

However, this time the situation was completely different. The girl was a blood relative of the king, and until recently, even the king himself was completely unaware of this.

For Fana, the news that the mature and steady girl at the facility she visited regularly turned out to be her half-sister, the girl named Alyssa, who Fana was very close to, was a huge blow to her.

"I... have been questioning myself. Why have I always cared about that facility? Maybe..." Fana looked up at the sky with tears in her eyes: "Maybe it was God who made me and my sister meet. I really hope... that I could have found her earlier and helped her earlier."

Fana's sobbing echoed in the dungeon. Naturally, Rick, Nelson, Esther, and the soldier who had been sitting silently at the entrance to the ground all showed painful expressions.

Alisha became the medium of the summoning ritual. Her life could not be saved. This realization made endless regrets well up in her heart.

If you did that, if you did that. The what-ifs kept coming and going, bringing new tears with them.

"When it's all over, we have to build a tomb for her." Nelson's whisper made Esther and Rick open their eyes.

"Yes. Although we can't do it openly, it should be okay to make it secretly."

"Yes, as her brother, I have to leave something behind. I also have to consider the children in those facilities..."

The moment Rick said this, Nelson remembered something: "Speaking of those kids, I met that monster user a few days ago."

"Is it Xu Zhen and the others?" Fana asked while wiping her tears. Nelson slightly straightened his body leaning against the wall.

"Unfortunately, I just chatted with him briefly at the city gate. How should I put it..." Nelson's mind flashed with the scene of Xu Zhen looking up at him.

"The look in his eyes is strange. It's hard to describe... It seems that it's not just because he is easily approached by monsters..."

“I understand. I felt the same way the last time I saw him.” Fana murmured under her breath, recalling the facilities she had visited with him.

That was the first time she saw a monster getting so close to someone. She couldn't help but wonder how a monster could get so close to her.

Xu Zhen said that if you travel with monsters, you will feel this way. But Fana still has doubts about this.

Is he hiding some rare ability, or is it simply because he is focused on becoming a monster user that he can reach this realm?

Or maybe Xu Zhen has both. In any case, Fana's opinion on the monster user has definitely changed.

"There is also a possibility of a monster user. I decided to reopen this possibility." Fana announced, her voice gradually regaining its calmness.
