Travel to another world and become a monster messenger

Although it was troublesome, he did not intend to remain silent and let them destroy the house. More importantly, he had people like Xu Zhen who needed protection behind him.

When Kuler made up his mind, the man with the red turban asked, "Before we do anything, I want to ask you something. Old man... were you really the court magician of this country?"

"Ah, yes. So what?"

"Is that so? Then I'd like to search your house. Maybe there's some magic-related treasure hidden inside."

"If we find some secret book or something, we will make a fortune!" the prickly man shouted excitedly.

Kuler looked at him with a helpless expression and said, "Although I can understand why you would have such an idea, there is no such thing as a secret book. Is there really a magician among you? If not, then this is a waste of resources."

"Humph! Even if we don't need it, we won't have trouble finding a trade partner."

"It's all about money, plain and simple."

Kuler sighed helplessly. Magic-related props are usually very valuable. There are many collectors and researchers who are eager to get these things.

Although being associated with the thieves would likely attract negative attention once the fact is made public, many people still try to contact them. Perhaps it's because people can't resist their desires.

"Okay, enough small talk. Now, let's talk with strength!"

The thieves picked up their weapons again and licked their lips. Facing the nervous Xu Zhen and the others, Kuler said with a smile: "Stand back a little. I have to teach those thugs a lesson now."

"Then I'll come too! Although I'm just a beginner mage, I can still help!"

“Pikki—!”

As Courtney and Slagic prepared to move forward, Culler shook his head. “Those guys are targeting you, Courtney, and you too. You two should just stand back. It’ll make it easier for me.”

“…Okay, I understand.”

“Piki…”

Although they felt helpless, Courtney and Slakic had to lower their heads. The moment Culler faced forward again, the man with the red headband shouted loudly: "Let's go!!"

The three thieves ran with their weapons in hand. Facing this situation, Xu Zhen and the others were full of tension, but Kuler remained calm: "First, let's try it out."

Kuler slowly raised his right hand and fired a fireball. The fireball hit the man with pointed hair with precise control, followed by a huge explosion. The man instantly turned into a charred state.

“Wow, is this grandpa’s magic?”

"Hahaha! That was just a warm-up, the real show is yet to come!" Kulair quickly fired another fireball, this time bigger and faster than before, blowing the bald man away.

“Wow!?”

"What! Are you kidding me? How could I lose to an old man?"

"Just give up. You'll end up like those two, too, understand?"

There was a ball of fire in Kuler's right hand, ready to throw at any time. This was his intention. The man with the red headband no longer had a smile on his face, and his wild expression just now seemed fake.

"What's wrong with this old man? He casts spells directly without chanting. Is this considered cheating... Is he a monster?"

"Oh, how rude." Kuler threw a fireball with a dull voice. With an explosion, the man with the red headband turned into a charred state and rolled to the ground struggling in pain.

Seeing this scene, Xu Zhen and the others showed surprised expressions: "Hey, Courtney. Does magic have to be chanted to be activated?"

"That's usually the case. However, some skilled practitioners who have undergone rigorous training can perform magic directly without chanting. Mr. Culler must be one of them."

This meant that Kuler's strength was quite remarkable. In fact, he easily dealt with three thieves and seemed to have plenty of strength left. There was no sign of him losing.

Kuler stopped casting magic for a moment and appealed to the thieves: "It is meaningless to continue fighting. You are not so stupid as to not see the difference in strength between you and me. Retreating is also part of the battle!"

“What a joke! If we run away now, how are we going to explain to the leader who gave us the chance!” The man with the red headband shouted, and the other two also stood up.

"Ah, yes...it is indeed so!"

"I almost gave up. It turns out that you are the only leader who is not good enough!"

"Please try harder! I will use my willpower to complete this task!"

“Ohhhh!”

The three of them united again, their morale high. Seeing this, Kuler sighed. No matter how you look at it, they have no strategy at all, and they obviously want to rely on momentum to get through this difficult time.

If that had changed the outcome, there wouldn't have been any trouble. Fighting with thugs is different. Do they realize that, or don't they?

There was only one thing that was certain, and that was that if they continued like this, these three would just be doing the same thing over and over again.

"What an unrepentant bunch of guys... In that case, how about using this next time!" Kulair launched a huge fireball into the sky.

Obviously this was not an attack against those three people. They opened their eyes wide in surprise because of this unexpected development. However, the next moment, the red-turbaned man's expression suddenly changed from serious to a smug smile.

"Right now! The magic has failed!"

They shouted excitedly, and the three of them approached Kuler together. At this moment, the huge fireball launched into the air split and spread like a firework, pouring down violently and mercilessly.

The fireball hit the ground and caused an explosion, and the three were sucked in one after another. The flat-headed man was blown away by the shock wave of the explosion and bumped into the bald man. The red-turbaned man was burned on his butt by the flames and rolled around in panic.

This scene was like a scene from hell. The explosion storm was so fierce that Xu Zhen and others behind him were also frustrated. At this time, Xu Zhen discovered something that was worrying and asked Kuler carefully.

"Um, Grandpa, won't this cause a fire?"

“It’s okay! You see, there’s a small plain around the house. As long as you operate it well, there will be no problem!”

"That's good...but isn't this a bit too exaggerated?"

“The other side has weapons in their hands. If we don’t do this, we can’t ensure that we can repel them!”

Just hearing these words, one might feel that he has no choice. However, Culler's expression was as if he was enjoying the process of using magic to repel the thieves, revealing a pure boyish smile.

Xu Zhen thought about this and asked Kuler with a helpless expression: "...You really enjoy this situation, right?"

"What are you talking about! No matter who your opponent is, you can't take it lightly! In order to ensure that you defeat your opponent, it is only natural to challenge with all your strength!"

Xu Zhen couldn't refute this obviously righteous statement. However, for some reason, he still couldn't accept it. That look of enjoyment perfectly shattered his persuasiveness. The way he tried to get the other party to retreat just now was like an illusion.

"Wahahahaha! Thieves, taste my flames!" Kuler's smiling shout echoed all around.

Xu Zhen frowned and thought. No, he definitely enjoyed it.

Latti and Slakic also frowned, Fairy Ship waved her hands helplessly, looking confused, and Courtney stood there with her mouth open, dumbfounded.

This was not surprising. They had witnessed with their own eyes the unexpected side of the wizard they had always respected. At least they were lucky that they did not make a fuss.

On the other hand, the thieves had completely lost their will to fight. They realized that if they continued to fight, they would not be able to win now. Not only that, they even felt that their lives were in danger.

The bald man yelled at the red-turbaned man: "Hey! This is really bad!"

"There's no other way... Let's retreat!" The man with the red turban said as he started running. The other two followed him, running aimlessly.

"Damn it, remember this!"

“Don’t think you’ve won just like that!”

"Next time you come, I'll show you our true strength!"

The three thieves fled after leaving behind typical provocative lines. However——

"Hey, wait a minute!" Kuler hurriedly tried to stop them, but they ignored him and continued to run desperately.

Thanks to this, they didn't notice the cliff ahead and ended up falling headfirst.

“Waaaaaaaaa——!”

The screams of the three merged into one, echoing in the air. Finally, there was a splash of water, and the sound completely disappeared. Xu Zhen and others looked down carefully, only to see a rushing river below. The figures of the three people had disappeared without a trace.

"I told you before, you have to listen to me." Kuler said in a helpless tone. Xu Zhen could only smile bitterly: "No, I think they can't hear me anymore."

“I know.” Despite what Culler said, Latti once again stared at the rushing river and trembled as he said, “This river is really spectacular no matter when you see it. It’s incredible that the upper reaches are so calm.”

“Is that the only part that’s flat terrain?”

"Well, that's about it. Thanks to this, we can't get water from here. If we want to drink water, we have to go to the riverbank upstream."

“Is this where you help Courtney and the Fairy Ship?”

Hearing Lati's question, Culler nodded. Courtney, holding the fairy boat, came over and looked down at the turbulent river and said, "Now that we think about it, we might be really lucky. If we hadn't found this place, we might have been trapped in this rapids."
