Travel to another world and become a monster messenger

“Courtney?”

"Ah? Wow, Xu Zhen?"

"What's wrong? You look dazed..."

"...ah, this, um, that..." Courtney was obviously hesitant, and Xu Zhen was confused: "Um, where is the old man?"

"My father has already returned to the hotel. He asked me to say hello to you."

"Really? Then it's almost time for us to go to dinner..."

"Ah, Xu Zhen!" Courtney's almost screaming call interrupted Xu Zhen's words. There was a look of despair in his expression, which made people feel what had happened.

When Xu Zhen was about to ask, Courtney hesitated and said, "Um... I have something I want to talk to you about..."

"What is it? You don't have to be shy..."

"It's an important matter. If I may, I would like to say it somewhere else."

“Oh, okay, let’s go.”

After answering almost subconsciously, Xu Zhen took Courtney out of the guild. The streets were very lively as night fell. Some people were eating skewers and drinking. Adventurers were telling each other heroic stories, and there was laughter everywhere.

Therefore, Xu Zhen felt that their mood was out of tune with the surroundings. Courtney rejected the proposal of "talking while eating". She was obviously very distressed, and Xu Zhen felt that she couldn't just leave it alone.

They finally found a quiet square with few people and sat on a bench in the corner. Lati and other friends looked at Courtney with concern. Xu Zhen said, "It's quiet here and convenient for chatting. So, what happened?"

"Well, actually..." Courtney lowered her head with a painful expression, and revealed to Xu Zhen and the others: "I...may have to say goodbye to Xu Zhen and the others here..."

Courtney's confession stunned Xu Zhen and the other three monsters, and they opened their eyes wide without saying a word. The cold wind stung their skin, and the surrounding grass and trees swayed gently in the wind.

The story goes back to noon.

After Xu Zhen and his team went on their first mission, Courtney and his father Malgili sat at a table in a corner of the guild and chatted. Although Courtney happily celebrated their reunion after several years, he was surprised when he heard the news revealed by Malgili.

"What, remarriage?"

"Oh, yes. She is an elven mage. We have been a team together since two years ago."

Courtney was speechless for a moment. The sudden news of having a new mother was really beyond his expectations. However, it was obvious from Malgili's serious expression that this was no joke.

Courtney had many questions she wanted to ask, but she couldn't say them. Malgili seemed to notice this, smiled slightly, and spoke again.

"There was no special opportunity. It just happened naturally without me noticing. I do feel a little sorry for telling you this all of a sudden. It's almost like betraying your late mother."

"No, this kind of thing... I have almost no memory of my mother..."

"Really? No wonder. You were only four years old then... Ten years really went by in a flash."

Malgili seemed to be reminiscing about the past, with a gentle look in his eyes. This side of him was completely different from the majesty he had shown before, revealing the image of a gentle father.

“Looking back, I’ve been neglecting you. It may be too late to say it now, but I’m really sorry.”

Courtney lowered his head and shook his head silently. At least he didn't reject his father. Malgili felt very fortunate when he thought of this.

At this time, Malgili told Courtney the purpose of his meeting: "I want to introduce you to your new mother. Also, I hope you can go to the Kingdom of Sforia with me..."

"Ah, she didn't come with us?"

“That was the plan, but she had something urgent to do. She was sorry she couldn’t see you.”

"is that so?"

"Yeah. After all, she is also a mage. She was very happy to know that she would have a son who is also a mage. I also told her that you are an orc, but she said she didn't mind it."

Courtney felt something well up in her, she wasn't sure if it was happiness or temporary relief, but the unhappiness and uneasiness with the new mother was almost non-existent.

"So, your new mother will love you too. I think you can rest assured. I'm considering moving your base to the Kingdom of Sforia, which should be the most suitable environment for a magician like you."
