Travel to another world and become a monster messenger

Finally, Xu Zhen and the others went to sleep after getting ready for tomorrow's departure. Ross left the room while saying that he had instructions to give to the fairies.

Eugrias, who stayed in the room, looked out the window and said, "It's so quiet... I didn't expect there was a fierce battle just now." She smiled as she watched the busy fairies moving around.

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

The next morning, Xu Zhen was walking in the corridor of the temple carrying a large backpack.

"Young man, can I bother you for a moment?"

"Well, is it okay?"

After being stopped by Ross, Xu Zhen stopped. Lati and the others were already waiting outside, leaving only Xu Zhen and Ross. It was obvious that he was the only one who was stopped, but why was it that Xu Zhen couldn't help but get nervous.

"No big deal, just something I want to confirm. Can I touch you for a moment? I'm not trying to do any magic."

"Uh... please."

Although he still had doubts in his heart, Xu Zhen still accepted Ross's words.

Ross placed his right hand on Xu Zhen's heart and closed his eyes. After a few seconds, Ross opened his eyes: "...I understand...the results are out..."

It seemed that the inspection was over. Although there was no sign of magic, he had obviously done something. Xu Zhen was still a little confused, so he asked Ross: "What is that?"

"Don't worry. Like I said, it's no big deal. That's all I have to do. Everyone is waiting for you. Go ahead."

"Oh, okay..." Xu Zhen shook his head in confusion and walked forward.

Ross stared at his back and sighed heavily.

(I just vaguely felt something... What on earth was going on? The boy showed exactly what I expected. Normally, this wouldn't be strange... But for that boy, it seemed completely different.)

Ross felt that it was hard to let go. Although he didn't have a specific bad premonition, it didn't feel good to leave such questions. He couldn't find the answer to these questions. He planned to find a time to discuss it with Euglias.

"Who is he? The boy named Xu Zhen..." With all the doubts running through his mind, Ross could only whisper to himself.

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

Xu Zhen and his companions said goodbye to Euglias, Ross and the fairies and set off. Euglias had arranged the exit of the forest into a straight road, so they expected to be able to get out of the forest in half a day.

"Goodbye!" Lati waved her hands and said goodbye to Euglias and the others. The fairies who saw them off also waved and cheered. Some of them even shed big tears.

The forest was very peaceful and comfortable. Although wild monsters appeared, they had no intention of attacking. Instead, they stood quietly and looked at them without vigilance, as if they were seeing Xu Zhen and the others off.

The fairies also treated this forest as their playground, and naturally, their words reached the ears of other monsters.

Maybe these monsters really saw Xu Zhen and his companions getting along well with Eugrias and the fairies, or heard related rumors. At least that's what Xu Zhen thought.

"Russell and the others...how are they doing now?" Alicia looked up with sidelong eyes and whispered to herself. She thought of her teammates after a long time. They had separated from each other since the capital of Saint-No, and it had been nearly a month without her noticing.

Alicia was surprised to realize that it was almost this time.

Including today, they have been in the forest for three days. The remaining three weeks will be spent traveling in the wilderness with Xu Zhen and his friends. In any case, it feels like time is passing very quickly.

Although there are monsters everywhere during the journey, safety is not always guaranteed. However, this experience seems to be very fulfilling. Although the scenery is monotonous, every day is lively and enjoyable. This is completely different from the time with Russell and others.

At the same time, she was sad that the relationship was coming to an end.

"Perhaps, they have returned to the Kingdom of Sforia? Or they are coming here to pick up the princess..."

"That's possible. We might bump into them along the way."

Xu Zhen and Lati's words made Alicia force a smile: "...Well, it is indeed possible." However, her smile was obviously a little forced.

Alicia knew that she was originally a teammate with Russell and the others, and that she was only with Xu Zhen and the others temporarily. Despite this, she was still very reluctant to part with this relationship - this period was about to end.

Alicia felt the same way.

“What would happen if we suddenly ran into Russell and the others?”

“Maybe we have to say goodbye, right? I’d feel a little lonely if that were the case.”

"Me too."

Xu Zhen's words made Lati nod in agreement, and Slakic and Lopul also showed frustrated expressions.

It turned out that Xu Zhen and the others, like Alicia, did not want to be separated from her. While Alicia was happy, Xu Zhen seemed to have thought of something.

"...Yeah, but since we're going to Sforia as well, can't we meet up soon at a guild or something like that?"

"Ah, now that you mention it, it is true."

Lettie clapped her hands in agreement, and Alicia nodded inwardly, feeling her heart gradually calm down.

(Yes, it doesn’t mean we will never see each other again.)

Feeling her steps become lighter, Alicia walked to Xu Zhen's side. They chatted with the monsters and laughed happily as they walked through the deep forest. A few hours later, Xu Zhen and his friends successfully reached the exit of the forest.

As soon as they stepped outside, they were hit by the hot air of the wilderness and they all frowned. This made them feel again how comfortable the air in the forest was.

They looked around but saw no other adventurers. They thought it was pointless to stay here and decided to head east.

"It seems that the way we came back this time was to return to the bifurcation point along the same route we came from."

“Yes, it was fast back then because I was riding on a killer tiger, but now it might take longer to walk.”

"If we can get to the bifurcation point today, why don't we rest early? After all, we have been going for two consecutive days, so we shouldn't try to be brave."

"agree."

"Yes."

After Xu Zhen and Lati answered, the group set off again. They did not encounter Russell and his group, nor were they attacked by monsters, and they arrived at the bifurcation point safely.
