Travel to another world and become a monster messenger

Even so, it was understandable that she was surprised when she saw such an unreasonable scene up close. Next to her, Alicia was looking at Lati with a blank expression.

The little goblin kept eating food that was too much for her.

“Latti…Is it okay to eat so much?”

"(It's totally fine. You can even eat more!)" Letty answered Alicia's question, but with her mouth full of food, she of course couldn't understand what she said.

In any case, this situation didn't seem normal. Alicia thought it might be because the transformation had consumed a lot of her energy.

"Having said that, fainting is really frustrating. In this case, I have to return to my original intention and retrain my will and strength!" Oliver shouted while pounding the ground in frustration. Jill stared at him with a cold look.

"Exercise is good, but I don't want to see you do what you did last time again."

"What happened last time?" Oliver seemed a little confused. Jill took a deep breath and said impatiently: "...You were seriously injured because of your recklessness, which caused our team activities to be suspended for a while. Have you forgotten?"

"Oh...well, of course I remember! Of course I remember!" Oliver said with cold sweat.

Jill sighed again: "I want you to explain why you were silent for so long just now."

“It’s not a big deal. If you pay too much attention to it, you will lose your hair in the future.”

“Before you say whose fault it is, you should at least choose the right words!” Jill raised her voice, and Russell tried to comfort her with a wry smile: “Okay, okay. Oliver is back to normal now. Let’s let him go today.”

"Really...Russell, you are always too tolerant! Generally speaking..." Jill was about to continue speaking, but Russell interrupted her with a gentle voice: "Maybe you are all tired because of the battle. Tonight, you should rest early."

Jill's anger quickly subsided. She lost her momentum because of Russell's interruption. She apologized to Oliver perfunctorily, then stood up and left, saying that she was going to take a walk and do some reconnaissance.

Xu Zhen watched their interaction and thought to himself, this is really troublesome. Then, the night became lively, and gradually, everyone prepared to rest.

Melnie cast a magical barrier around the square to ensure that wild monsters would not attack everyone, so that they could sleep peacefully.

This is a special magic that only the court magician can use. Russell and his friends benefited a lot from it. Daglas also sighed that the court magician was indeed extraordinary.

Within a few minutes, Russell and the other four were fast asleep, and Douglas also fell asleep while sitting with his luggage on his back. It was obvious that everyone was exhausted.

Xu Zhen sat cross-legged in front of the campfire, looking at the flickering flames in a daze. He looked around and saw three monsters sleeping comfortably, and couldn't help but smile.

"Xu Zhen, can I talk to you?" Melnie was still awake. She walked softly to Xu Zhen and sat down. "Xu Zhen, you should still be on the mission, right?"

"Yes. I want to return to the guild early tomorrow morning. I have met the requirements to complete the mission."

"Then it seems that there is no big problem. However, Xu Zhen, I suggest that you leave the capital of Santono as soon as possible after completing the task."

Hearing this, Xu Zhen couldn't help but widen his eyes, wondering what she was suddenly saying. He felt like he was suddenly blamed and couldn't react for a while.

Melnie also realized that she had spoken too suddenly, so she softened her expression: "I'm sorry for scaring you so suddenly. But what I said just now was not a joke. I think it's best for you to leave the capital."

This time, she spoke in a gentle tone, and explained to Xu Zhen word by word. Xu Zhen finally understood what she wanted to say, and asked again: "You said I'd better leave immediately... Is there something wrong?"

Under the light of the bonfire, Melnie nodded in response to Xu Zhen's question: "Because of this incident, I don't want to involve you anymore. Although things have calmed down for the time being, once Sylvia wakes up, I honestly don't know what will happen."

"Ah..." Xu Zhen thought, this is indeed possible. He roughly learned about what happened from Alicia, and realized that this matter has become too troublesome.

The important thing is that Sylvia's rampage had a cause, and the evil magic only added fuel to the flames. It did avoid the worst outcome, but it did not fundamentally solve the problem.

"For the next period of time, the palace may be very noisy because of Sylvia's matter. I guess they won't even have time to pay attention to Xu Zhen and the others."

Melnie looked apologetic, but Xu Zhen didn't care. Lati and the others were safe, so he had nothing to complain about. After thinking about it, he had no reason to stay in the capital for a long time, and even felt that this was a good time, so he made a decision quickly.

"Okay. Then I'll prepare and probably leave from the capital tomorrow. No need to apologize or thank me." Xu Zhen said to Melnie calmly. His answer was so concise that Melnie couldn't help but widen her eyes.

He didn't look perfunctory, nor did he misunderstand anything. Xu Zhen really didn't care, and he accepted Melnie's advice without hesitation, which was the best proof.

Melnie was confused, but she still felt that this was a relieved answer. Driven by her inner emotions, she bowed to Xu Zhen with a smile: "I'm really sorry, and thank you very much." She didn't even realize that there were tears in her eyes.

Xu Zhen didn't know why she was crying, and felt a little helpless. He simply accepted the proposal. If this situation is investigated further, it may cause trouble. Xu Zhen thought so in his heart, trying to find the right words to respond.

"Uh, that... I just really hate trouble. Don't take it to heart." Xu Zhen tried his best to answer with a smile, but his expression was a little stiff.

Xu Zhen tried hard to find the right words, but he didn't find any, and he didn't have the time to recall them.

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

After spending a night in the southern forest, Xu Zhen and his companions returned to the capital of Santono. After saying goodbye to Russell and his companions, Daglas, and Melnie, they first went to the Adventurer's Guild. Although it was early in the morning, the guild was already crowded.

When he walked to the counter, the receptionist spoke to him in surprise: "Mr. Xu Zhen, are you okay? I heard that you had trouble in the southern forest..."

"Well, finally..."

Apparently, what happened yesterday had already reached the guild. Seeing Xu Zhen, the receptionist breathed a sigh of relief and accepted his mission completion report.
