Travel to another world and become a monster messenger

“She has changed. From a humble little girl who always walked behind, she has become a reliable big sister who can walk side by side and take care of others.”

Bridget closed her eyes and nodded with emotion. She sounded happy. She had been worried about Alicia. Without Russell and the others, she might not be able to do anything.

So, Brigitte was very surprised to see her today.

Alicia's expression was more vivid than ever, and her speech was clearer than ever. She herself did not seem to be aware of this, it was a very natural behavior.

Alicia has changed. She has grown up without even realizing it. And it is the new friends who have brought about this change that is even more surprising.

"Hello, Bridget?"

"Hmm? Oh, sorry, what did you say?"

Brigitte came back to her senses from her deep emotion. Alicia narrowed her eyes suspiciously.

“No, I didn’t say anything…Are you okay?”

“It’s okay! I’m still full of energy today.”

At least here, Brigitte tried to cover up the past and began to speak with a hint of mockery: "But I am relieved. I thought it was love's escape, but it seems not."

"Ah, well, don't say anything casually!" Alicia immediately denied it with a blush, while Bridget smiled and waved her hands.

"Don't be shy. Maybe that's your first love, Alicia? If that's the case, then it's a destined reunion, oh my." Bridget swayed her waist, in high spirits.

Although Alicia should have been very panicked, she sighed deeply as if extremely helpless and said: "Brigid, I have to make it clear that Xu Zhen has nothing to do with that boy. At least, he could not have been in the Kingdom of Sforia." Alicia said this very clearly.

This is not a misunderstanding or concealment. He is a being from another world. If this fact is made clear, this topic will soon be over.

But since it wasn't him, he couldn't tell her in detail. After all, even if he did, he wouldn't necessarily be believed. Alicia hoped that this would make the other party back down.

“Oh, is that so?” Bridget on the other hand was surprised by this unexpected development.

She showed no tough attitude nor any sign of concealment. It seemed that her own prediction was wrong. But even so, Brigitte was very concerned about some things about Xu Zhen.

"Well...but I do feel the rhythm of the fairy tribe in that child..."

At that moment, the surrounding sounds seemed to disappear completely.

Alicia doubted her ears. What had Brigitte just said? She wanted to deny it outright. But Alicia couldn't deny Brigitte's words. For some reason, she knew there was something credible in Brigitte's words.

"Is that what you sensed through your ability, Bridget?"

"Well, yes. He looks human, maybe a half-elf." Bridget answered easily.

People are sometimes born with special physical characteristics, regardless of race. Brigitte was one of them, and as her old friend, Alicia knew this very well. So although it was hard to believe, it was undeniable, which made her even more confused.

"…I just want to confirm, Bridget, are you sure?"

"I don't think I'm mistaken. Alicia, you know that I can only sense the rhythm of the fairies. Because of this, I don't want to make a mistake."

"Uh-huh……"

“If the child was purely human, I wouldn’t be able to feel his rhythm. But I do. Isn’t that obvious?”

Alicia was speechless. Although she had many thoughts in her mind, she had no idea where to start. The story itself was actually very simple, it just revealed the fact that Xu Zhen had the blood of the fairy clan.

It's just part of a small puzzle, just enough to keep in the back of your mind.

But Alicia connects it to a memory from ten years ago, so her thinking becomes more complicated. Of course, no one knows this, including her.

"…However, my ability cannot be said to be absolutely accurate. It is possible that I misunderstood his rhythm. I cannot completely deny that this may be a misunderstanding."

Sensing Alicia's extreme confusion, Bridget tried to cover it up with a bright tone. However, her expression did not change as she continued.

"Besides, even if what I said is right, we don't know if the child is really the boy, right? There's no point in complicating this topic any further, maybe it's better not to care about it?"

"...Yes, well, that's true...ah!" Alicia replied weakly, and suddenly seemed to realize something. Then her expression suddenly changed, and she glared at Brigitte with some resentment.

"It's you, Bridget. You made this topic complicated!"

"...Ah, really? That's it?"

"Well, at least this time I can be sure it's you!"

After hearing what Alicia said, Bridget recalled that it was indeed because of her excited joke at the beginning. Bridget's expression gradually became stiff, and finally she smiled bitterly.

“Haha, sorry sorry. I’m just going to disappear before things get any weirder. I have other chores to take care of.”

“Ah, wait, Bridget?”

"Wait a minute!"

Brigitte started running from there and disappeared into the crowd. Alicia was left standing there, unable to move for the time being.

"Hey--Alicia--!"

Alicia was shocked when she heard the voice. She turned around and saw Xu Zhen and the monsters approaching.

"It looks like your conversation is over... What's wrong? Why is your face red?" Xu Zhen asked as if spying on her. Alicia seemed a little flustered: "Nothing, nothing..."

"Hmm... is that so?" Although Xu Zhen felt that something must have happened, he thought that even if he asked now, he would only be evaded, so he decided not to delve into it for the time being.

"Okay, let's go quickly. We're about to enter the Kingdom of Sforia!" Xu Zhen regained his spirit, turned towards the checkpoint, an excited smile on his face.

Looking at Xu Zhen and the monsters walking out happily, Alicia felt that the haze in her heart was gradually dissipating.

(…Don’t worry about it now…Is it okay?)

Thinking of this, Alicia smiled and ran towards Xu Zhen and the others.
