Travel to another world and become a monster messenger

"...To be honest, we have no right to criticize others."

Maquis muttered, and Glenn started laughing as well.

"Indeed. He must be in hell now, hating us to the core."

Glenn looked up at the blue sky and whispered with a wry smile, his voice sounding as if he was trying his best to hold back something that was leaking from his eyes.

Maquis noticed this, of course, but he felt almost the same way himself, so he said nothing.

Then, somehow, he blurted out what he had been thinking about Glenn.

“Hey, Glenn. You’re probably thinking “Why didn’t you stop it then?” Right? Or “You’re no longer qualified to be an adventurer” or something like that?”

“…Am I that obvious?”

"We've been together for so long, I can feel it. I hope you're not mistaken."

“Really… Sorry.”

“No need to apologize.”

Machis said, smiling at Glenn's apology.

Obviously, his tone was "nothing can be done about it", and he was not holding back like Glenn just now. Machis's eyes moved from the parade to Glenn.

"By the way, what should we do next? We don't even have a captain anymore."

"Yeah... Honestly, I don't have any idea. I feel like my chest is hollowed out and I can't cheer up... That's how it feels."

"Glenn, you look pretty depressed... well, I feel the same way."

Indeed, Machis' voice was less lively than before. It was obvious that the loss of Adan was a huge blow to them.

The fact that the guy who was always causing trouble would never appear in front of them again made them feel heavy.

Machis understood Glenn's words and replied in his usual relaxed tone: "Then, let's take a break for a while and suspend team activities. I'll just take a few missions and earn some pocket money."

“Thank you, Machis. I really appreciate it.”

"It's okay, you're welcome. But rather than that, let's go to the guild first. We need to have a good talk with the guild leader..."

"Well... let's go."

The two of them squeezed through the crowd and walked towards the Adventurer's Guild. Although they smiled, the lonely atmosphere could not be eliminated.

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

As Xu Zhen and his party continued to move toward the western border, an interesting thing happened.

“Ha~~~~~!!”

While looking up at the sky, Foreo absorbed the magic energy in the atmosphere with his small hands. Although his body glowed, the light soon disappeared.

It was obvious that he was trying to transform into something, but failed every time. Xu Zhen and his companions were also watching quietly from the side, although they were a little worried when they saw him keep failing.

"Foreo, are you practicing transformation?"

"Well, almost."

“What are you trying to become?”

“It looks difficult, I guess.”

Xu Zhen and Lati had a brief conversation, and the other monsters stopped playing and looked at Foreo in unison.

As if he was completely unaware that everyone was watching him, Foreo continued to practice with all his heart. No matter how many times he failed, he would not give up, and this firm will seemed to be transmitted to everyone.

"Have you heard anything from Foreo?"

Xu Zhen asked Luo Puer and others, and they all shook their heads. Obviously no one knew what happened. Lati also seemed to be unaware and tilted her head with a worried expression.

"Then we can only ask him directly."

Xu Zhen muttered to himself. At this moment, Fuleo failed again and sat on the ground tiredly. Furling to the ground and looking up at the blue sky, Fuleo was frustrated. Xu Zhen walked forward, his voice full of concern.

"Foreo, are you all right?"

"fine……"

Although he slightly avoided her gaze, Fureo still answered. Xu Zhen smiled bitterly and sat down.

"What are you trying to become? Tell us if you can." Xu Zhen asked. Fuleo still had his back to him and did not answer. Lati and the other monsters ran over.

Then Foreo stood up -

"……dragon."

He whispered softly. The other monsters were a little surprised, but Xu Zhen seemed to understand something immediately.

"Dragon... Hey, is it the one where Dion was sitting?"

"Um……"

Foreo nodded and looked up at the sky again.

Not long ago, Foreo saw Dion riding on a dragon's back and was greatly attracted to him. He wanted to become a dragon and fly under the clear blue sky.

Originally able to transform into a beast, he has grown over the past year and a half. He has grown to the point where he can carry Xu Zhen and his group on his back while running. Therefore, Foreo believes that he has the potential to become a dragon.

However, no matter how long he practiced, Foreo could not transform into a dragon. Although he could gather magic power, he always failed at the critical moment when he tried to use magic to change his form.

After learning about Foreo's situation, Latti made a guess: "Perhaps Foreo's own magic power is not enough."

Xu Zhen continued: "Even though he is capable of becoming a large beast, maybe he doesn't have the magic power required to become a dragon?"

“It is very likely that…”

Lati gently touched the depressed Foreo's head and nodded: "But in this case, I think the current situation is very serious. Although the amount of magic power can be increased through training, to become a monster like a dragon..."

"It seems that there is no other choice but to increase magic power through other methods. Although I think it is not easy to simply increase magic power..."

"Actually, there is." Xu Zhen narrowed his eyes slightly at Lati's straightforward answer: "...Even if there is, if the method is very dangerous, I don't want him to try it."

"It's okay. All you need to do is take in the fruit or water that contains the magical power."

“Is that all we need? It sounds too simple…”

In response to Xu Zhen's doubts, Lati smiled bitterly: "Well, but the prerequisite is to get those fruits or water that host magic power."

"So, is it hard to get it?"

"...Yes. And to generate enough magic power to transform into a dragon, you may need to obtain a more powerful magic object..." Lati lowered her head and said. The other monsters also sighed, as if they thought the situation was very serious.

It is believed that food or water that hosts magic cannot be artificially produced and can only grow naturally. However, the environmental conditions are very harsh and it is very difficult to find them.

By the way, for objects that do not host magic power, they are just ordinary fruits or water. No matter how much you eat, it will not have any effect. Just like multiplying any number by zero, the answer will be zero.
