Travel to another world and become a monster messenger

After a brief pause, Xu Zhen replied emotionlessly: "Well, I'm not interested."

Because he was almost unaware, his reaction was a little slow. Although this answer was casual, it was not a lie. He didn't know the purpose of the question, but Xu Zhen didn't care about it for the time being, and decided to ask what he had always wanted to ask.

"Besides that, Courtney, why are you there? And what exactly is that monster..."

The monster had a rounded, simplified appearance similar to that of a white cat. Xu Zhen had always been concerned about the true identity of the monster.

However, Courtney frowned, looked at the monster and replied: "I'm not sure... I saw the child being caught by the thief and felt sorry for him..."

“Hey, is Courtney also a thief?”

“Yeah, I was caught. And I was put in this.”

Courtney raised his left arm, which was covered with a bracelet. The design of the bracelet was quite ominous, and it was not something he liked at all. If it was a cursed item, he would accept it immediately without hesitation.

Feeling a little chill, Xu Zhen frowned slightly and asked, "What is that?"

"That's a magic-sealing bracelet. I'm a magician. Still a novice though. The bracelet on my right hand is proof." As she spoke, Courtney showed the bracelet, which was a simple green design without any decoration.

"I see. It's a guild card that proves your identity as a magician. It's beyond doubt."

“What is a Guild Card?”

"This is a card obtained after registering with the Adventurer's Guild in each capital. Normally, it will be worn on the wrist of the registrant as a bracelet, and it also serves to prevent loss."

After Culler answered this, Xu Zhen looked at Courtney's bracelet with interest: "So, this is something very important? It would be very troublesome if it was lost, right?"

“Yeah. For adventurers, it’s proof of identity. But in reality, the worry of losing or stealing is almost non-existent.”

“Eh, why?”

Xu Zhen tilted his head, and Courtney stared at his bracelet and said, "It is said that this bracelet is infused with special magic. Even if this arm is cut off, the bracelet will disappear at that moment. It cannot be copied, and it can be said to be a unique card in the world. In short, it has no value except to the person himself."

“Hey, that looks like something a thief would target.”

When Xu Zhen said this, Kuler responded with a wry smile: "That's just how it looks. This is also common sense in this world. However, I don't quite understand why this logic works."

As he said this, Kuler raised his hands in surrender, but Xu Zhen did not continue to ask questions.

Although he was somewhat concerned, he didn't really want to know. So Xu Zhen accepted this explanation for the time being.

At this time, Culler turned his interest to Courtney's bracelet: "However, it is a rare case for an orc to become a magician."

"Oh, is that so?" Xu Zhen tilted his head, and Culler nodded. At that moment, although Courtney's expression was a little gloomy, no one around noticed it.

"Orcs are usually born with physical talents. If we use adventurers as an analogy, they are like swordsmen or fighters. However, there are also orcs who are born with magical powers, but in this case, they almost all have the blood of elves or demons."

"In short, it is very rare for a pure orc like me to have only magical talents."

Culler continued, and Courtney added with a wry smile. Xu Zhen felt a little self-mockery and became somewhat interested in Courtney's appearance.

Just as I was about to ask, Lati spoke first: "By the way, can I take off that bracelet?"

“Well, it can’t be taken off at all. It’s like a rather special bracelet.”

“Let me see.”

Culler touched the bracelet that Courtney was wearing. Suddenly, a light green light overflowed and the bracelet was surrounded by light. After a few seconds, with a snap, the bracelet broke into pieces and disappeared.

"...What, it's taken off? Wait, isn't it shattered?" Faced with this sudden situation, Xu Zhen was completely confused. Lati, Slakic and Courtney were also confused.

Courtney looked back at his wrist and then at Culler, his mouth agape. He was so shaken that he couldn't speak smoothly.

Despite this, he still took a deep breath and asked Culler: "Why? Um... who are you?"

"Shackles like these are nothing to me. The former court mage's power has not yet declined."

Courtney opened his eyes wide in surprise, jumped off the bed and asked Culler: "You, you are the court magician? So, you are Lord Culler?"

"It is me, my name is Culler..."

"As expected! Well, I have always admired you!"

"It's my honor." Kuler smiled bitterly, obviously a little uncomfortable, but Courtney didn't notice and continued, "Ever since I became a magician, I have always wanted to meet you. I heard that you lived in seclusion in the mountains of the Kingdom of Shuter, so I crossed the border from the Kingdom of Santono and embarked on a journey..."

"Did you get caught by a thief on the way?"

"Unfortunately, that's the truth." Courtney smiled bitterly with red cheeks. Culler opened his eyes and said, "You still managed to escape."

"I'm lucky. I didn't expect it to be that easy though..."

"In short, the most important thing is that you are safe."

Faced with Courtney's surprise, Culler hesitated but ended the topic. He thought he would not be asked these questions again.

He briefly thought that Courtney might be one of the thieves, but he quickly laughed it off. He didn't think Courtney would deliberately wear a magic control ring and put on such an exaggerated disguise.

At this moment, Xu Zhen raised his right hand and asked a question: "That... is the court magician something so great?"

In response to Xu Zhen's question, Courtney opened his mouth wide and said excitedly, "You, don't you know? That is the magician of the royal palaces of various countries. It can be said to be the highest level of magician. That court magician!?"

"Oh, really? I don't know."

Although somewhat surprised, Xu Zhen still answered casually. But Courtney was speechless for a moment. He seemed to be questioning, is there anyone who doesn't know this well-known thing?

Looking at their expressions, Kuler smiled bitterly and interrupted: "This is a good opportunity. Let's talk briefly about the court magician."

Hearing this, Xu Zhen and Lati both showed interested expressions and looked at Culler; while Courtney also looked at Xu Zhen and the others with an expression of disbelief.

"First of all, the meaning of the title of Court Magician is, as Courtney said just now, it belongs to the royal palaces of various countries and can be said to be the highest title among magicians."

"Wow, Grandpa, you were so awesome back then."

"Hahaha, that was a long time ago. Now I'm just an old grandfather living in seclusion." Kuler responded to the surprised Xu Zhen with a pleasant smile, and then continued to explain.

"Although I haven't explained it in detail yet, I think you may not know that I was originally an adventurer and also worked as a magician. I used to be very noisy and caused a lot of trouble to the people around me."

Kuler closed his eyes and nodded nostalgically: "But because of this, I also accumulated a lot of merit. One day, I received an invitation to the palace."

"So, you became the court magician?" Facing Xu Zhen's curious question, Kulair nodded slowly.

Xu Zhen was surprised to learn that Culler was an outstanding magician in the Age of Adventurers. Courtney's eyes sparkled as if he had seen a god, which made Culler smile bitterly.

"Court magicians are not only able to cast powerful magic. They can also control some special magic that ordinary magicians cannot handle. For example, they can sense what kind of abilities the other party has hidden."

As he spoke, Kuler made another pot of hot tea. The cup he handed over was emitting warm steam. By the way, Lati also had a special little teacup. It was made by Kuler himself and was very delicate.

At this time, Lati seemed to remember something: "Master, is it because of the power of the court magician that you can see through the magician's ability?"

"Yes. With the help of special magic. Although I haven't used it for a long time, my perception ability has not been completely dulled."

By the way, since he resigned as the court magician, Kuler has never used this ability again. Despite this, he was able to successfully read Xu Zhen's qualifications with ease, which was also unexpected.

At the same time, this also makes him more confident that although he is called a grandfather, he is not completely old yet.

However, he seemed to have lost his confidence during his seclusion. If my past self saw this, he would definitely sigh, feel sad, and even want to beat him up. Culler couldn't help but smile bitterly.

When identifying Xu Zhen's ability, he actually thought about this and smiled bitterly. And Lati tilted his head curiously, which was just an unknown secret.

“Since you once held such a high title, you must have lived a very luxurious life, right?”

“No, I’m not that extreme.”

The moment Xu Zhen said this, Kulair's expression turned gloomy.

"Luxury? No, I don't even have time to move freely. Status and fame are just flashy things, I have deeply experienced this. Of course, this may also be because the environment in my time was worse than it is now."

Culler spoke seriously, and it was clear that he was not lying. Courtney was shocked. She didn't expect to hear such words from someone she respected.
