Mission in another world with my transformed best friend

"Both of you, in this world... I entrust the matter of the hero to you."

……

"Bah, bah~"

Spitting out a mouthful of mud and sand, Wang Kai slowly opened his eyes. His blurry vision hadn't focused yet, and the bones in his body felt like they were falling apart, pulling at his muscles and nerves. The excruciating pain forced him to close his eyes again and open his mouth wide to try to scream to relieve the pain, but his spasming tongue stretched out very long, making him look exactly like a mangy dog ​​lying on the ground in a dying state.

Five full minutes later, Wang Kai finally came to his senses. His broken body still had no strength at all. He couldn't even blink, let alone turn over. At that moment, however, he reflexively uttered a few words: "Basic Healing Technique".

With a sudden flash of blue light on his body, a warm current carrying the pulse of life gathered from all directions, thoroughly enveloping Wang Kai from head to toe. The pain in his body immediately lessened considerably, and he was finally able to sit up from his previous dead-dog state.

What the hell is going on?!

As the pain subsided, his brain cells began to function normally. Wang Kai sat up and looked at the lush green trees in front of him, the ridgeline behind them, and the grass beneath him. This undoubtedly told him that he was in a deep, seemingly endless forest.

"What's going on? Still dreaming? All we remember last night is drinking... drinking way too much. The last thing we remember is having a drinking contest with our buddies at a roadside barbecue stand, and then, then we just blacked out..."

Wait, what's that thing in his right hand? It's small and soft. Following the direction, Wang Kai's eyes widened. In his hand was a small, delicate, white hand. Following the hand, he saw a girl who looked like she was fast asleep lying quietly beside him.

Wang Kai was stunned for a moment, initially thinking it was a hallucination. He closed his eyes and cleared his mind. He was almost sober now, so it shouldn't affect his vision...

Slowly, Wang Kai opened his eyes again, and this time, as his vision gradually focused, he saw that there was indeed a young girl lying beside him, and every detail of the girl's body became increasingly clear.

Well, her face still had a touch of childishness, making her look about fifteen or sixteen years old. The smoothness of her fair skin was better than any photo editing software could achieve. Her shoulder-length blonde hair looked a little messy, with a few strands even covering her face, but it couldn't hide the power of the term "beautiful girl" at all.

Furthermore, the blonde girl was wearing a loose white robe, the fabric of which was stained with a little mud and embroidered with some incomprehensible striped patterns. What was also quite noticeable was that she was tightly gripping a wooden stick that looked like a magic staff in her other hand.

Upon seeing this, the nearly dead "gamer cells" in Wang Kai's mind began to "resurrect"...

After all, anyone who has played a few RPG games like "Dragon Quest" or "Sorcerer and Sword" should know that this classic image of a blonde girl with an exotic style, wearing a white robe and holding a staff, is almost always associated with professions like "magician" or "sage" in the game.

However, a very "reliable" answer popped into Wang Kai's mind, which seemed quite plausible given the current situation.

"Is this some kind of cosplay venue that I accidentally wandered into while drunk? Who brought such a beautiful girl to pose with me? Where are the photographer, scriptwriter, and lighting technician? Are they hiding nearby playing 'candid photography'? They just left me alone with such a highly realistic 'magic girl' without even revealing the script beforehand. If I act according to my own wishes, don't blame me if some indescribable scenes happen next."

As Wang Kai's mind wandered, he noticed that he was also wearing wrist guards or similar protective gear on his arms, which puzzled him. He then focused his attention back on himself.

Below her neck was a breastplate and below that was a chainmail. A dagger and a short sword hung from a belt that encircled her waist.

These "props" don't need to be touched; the heavy feel of them on your body and the metallic sheen they reflect clearly indicate that they are not cosplay props, but genuine items!

Wait, let me sort this out a bit more, it's a bit confusing right now.

Wang Kai's last memory before waking up was definitely the moment when he and his best friend were drinking until they blacked out...

Upon opening my eyes, I was greeted by a scene that seamlessly blended elements of magic and sword-themed RPG games, presented in a first-person perspective. Could this be...?

As those "childhood gaming memories" began to assault his brain cells, accelerating the "reincarnation" process, another "reliable" hypothesis immediately formed in Wang Kai's mind.

Is this some unknown, groundbreaking first-person RPG game—a "drunken dream version"? Or a 4D extreme graphics version? They even have touch controls? If we weren't middle-aged men approaching thirty in the 21st century, we might actually believe it.

Wait a minute, whether it's a dream or a game, we need to advance the events to reach the final conclusion. As for the surroundings, the only clue is this blonde beauty next to us.

Wang Kai leaned down slightly and reached out with his other hand to gently touch the girl's delicate face, but she didn't react. Seeing this, he could only "change his finger to his palm," adding a little more force, and patted the girl's pink face...

"Yeah~"

After a shy murmur, the girl's eyebrows twitched a few times, and her long eyelashes slowly opened her eyelids. But before her eyelids were even halfway open, they closed again in an instant. This was almost exactly the same reaction Wang Kai had when he woke up and was in excruciating pain all over his body, turning into a mangy dog ​​on the verge of death.

After a period of convulsions, the girl suddenly opened her mouth, and a scream that resounded through the sky echoed outwards.

"Oh my god, it hurts so much! Who beat me up while I was sleeping? Step forward and admit it, or I promise I won't kill you!"

Wow, that heavenly voice perfectly matches that face, but something about what she said sounds a bit strange...

Soon, the girl took a few deep breaths, and the first thing she saw when she opened her eyes was Wang Kai's strange face with an unreadable expression.

After a second or two of eye contact, the girl didn't say anything more. Her petite body immediately used her waist as a support point to do a half-spin on the ground, and then she aimed one of her shoes at the other person's face and delivered a solid kick.

You can't fight city hall. The seemingly slender girl's kick to the face was swift, accurate, and ruthless. Even after the pain, Wang Kai leaned back with a silly grin on his face.

"Ouch, it hurts like hell! You bastard, you did this, didn't you..."

The girl stood up while cursing, using the staff she was holding as a crutch. She stood up unsteadily, then stepped on Wang Kai's chest and said warily.

"Who are you, kid? Trying to rob me last night while I was drunk... My goodness, you've got guts! Wearing medieval armor to rob people these days is pretty trendy, like something out of a movie? No... even short videos don't have this kind of script. If you want to copy America's zero-dollar shopping trend, at least wear a bulletproof vest, or even carry a toy gun for the show to be entertaining. Hey, this sword looks kind of interesting, watch this..."

As the girl spoke, she casually bent down and drew the short sword from Wang Kai's waist, weighing it in her small hands for a few moments...

"Wow, it's quite heavy, and the replica is pretty accurate..."

After saying that, the girl turned the sword tip and thrust it several times towards Wang Kai's chest, immediately producing several metallic clanging sounds as the breastplate and sword tip collided.

He was kicked squarely in the face, and before he could react, a jade-like foot pressed down on his chest, preventing him from standing up. After Wang Kai figured out what had just happened, he saw a sword poking and prodding at his chest. He was so frightened that he almost lost his mind, broke out in a cold sweat, and immediately cried out.

"Stop! Someone's killing someone! Someone's killing someone!"

"Hmph, so cowardly yet you try to rob someone?"

After the girl realized that the short sword in her hand was genuine, she stopped, fearing that something might go wrong. She looked around, her brows furrowed, and she asked a question.

"Robbery, where are your accomplices? Are you alone?"

"What accomplices!?"

"Are you kidding me? Do you want me to stab you a few more times? If you didn't have accomplices, how could you have brought me all the way to this remote mountain forest to rob and kidnap me?! And what about that guy I was drinking with last night? Didn't you guys do anything to him?!"

"What drinking buddy? I don't understand which buddy you're talking about!"

"It's my best friend, a fat guy named Wang Kai, nicknamed Wang Ergou, who's almost thirty and still single. This guy can't hold his liquor but tries to act tough, even though he's a total couch potato. Now look what's happened, he's drunk but can't go home, and he's been targeted by a petty thief like you. Didn't expect me to sober up so quickly, did you! Tell me honestly, where are all my best friends?"

Wang Kai was stunned. If it weren't for the fact that the violent girl in front of him had included his name and nickname in her words, and even private information such as his body fat percentage and how many years he had been single, he would have wondered if there was something wrong with his hearing. Before his brain cells had fully absorbed the information, he could only open his mouth and reply word by word.

"Are you talking about me? I am Wang Kai..."
