Travel to another world and become a monster messenger

Chapter 167 The Truth (2)

Then, Xu Zhen touched his cheek, looking troubled: "But... I was suddenly told that I am from this world. To be honest, I really can't accept it."

"That's understandable. Normally, you would deny such a ridiculous claim and it wouldn't be surprising at all."

"Hmm. Now that I think about it, Xu Zhen is really quite calm."

Under the attention of Latti and Sergio, Xu Zhen felt inexplicably embarrassed.

“I’m actually still quite shocked. Isn’t this normal?”

"If it were me, I would probably be so surprised that I would be speechless, just like when I listened to my father's story in the Kingdom of Santono." Courtney said with a wry smile, recalling the events of a few months ago.

Hearing this, Xu Zhen was still puzzled. He sighed and tilted his head and said, "Is that so?"

When the conversation came to an end, Sergio began to talk about Xu Zhen's parents.

Leo is the father, a half-human and half-elf. Salia is the pure human mother. This means Xu Zhen is one-quarter elven.

Unlike mixed-race people like Alicia, whose one-quarter bloodline has appearance characteristics that are completely inclined towards one race, Xu Zhen looks more like a human, and you can't tell at first glance.

What if he was born with an elven bent and had long ears on Earth?

Such a thought flashed through Xu Zhen’s mind.

"Among people with elven blood, very few are born with very strong physiques. Xu Zhen is likely one of them."

"You said before that you've never had a cold."

After hearing what Sergio and Lati said, Xu Zhen sighed in his heart, "So that's how it is."

He doesn't get sick, and if he gets hurt, he can recover quickly without any sequelae. If all this is due to the special physique brought by the elven bloodline, then this statement is very reasonable.

"By the way, in addition to being physically strong, there are also some people who can sense the blood of the elves, or can only judge whether they have magical powers. Because there are many different physical conditions, it is extremely difficult to have a comprehensive understanding."

Xu Zhen and the others couldn't hide their surprise when they heard this for the first time. Courtney asked: "But if this is the case, the special physique of the elves should be more famous, right? This is the first time I heard that the elves have a special physique."

"It's not surprising that special physiques haven't become a hot topic. Such traits are usually not very practical, so even the elves themselves mostly just regard them as natural additions."

Xu Zhen felt that there was some truth in this statement.

What's the point of knowing blood relations? There is actually no practical application. The fact that quarter blood is so common shows that they don't mind mixing with other races.

As for whether it has magic power, you can find out by going to the guild, there is no need to find someone to test it. Obviously, as Sergio said, these are just extra little extras.

"Come to think of it, Master, your physique seems to be really good."

“I think so too. Even in some harsh natural environments, you might be able to survive.”

"It's like he was born to be a monster user."

Latti, Sergio and Courtney all looked at him, and Xu Zhen didn't know what to do.

Neither his strong physique nor his ability as a monster user was something he had intentionally acquired. If anything, it could only be described as a clever overlap of fate and chance.

Xu Zhen thought so, but he didn't seem to realize that this was the amazing thing that Sergio and the others were talking about.

"By the way, Xu Zhen's mother, Salia, is also a monster user. Xu Zhen is likely to have inherited her mother's abilities strongly. She is the kind of person who follows her own path regardless of the flow of people around her."

"That's very much like the master's style." After hearing what Lati said, Xu Zhen couldn't reply, but just scratched his head uncomfortably. Sergio looked at him with a smile.

(Well, in fact, his face is also very similar to Salia. When I first met him in Panna Forest, even I was surprised. When I saw the child with the monster, I thought I saw Salia for a moment.)

He couldn't help but yell that time, which was a small black history in Sergio's mind. As the patriarch, he always believed that he should always remain calm and composed.

While this could also be used as an excuse to maintain a cool image, it doesn't matter right now.

(He looks too much like me… not exactly the same, but too similar. And from Xu Zhen, I even feel the aura of Leo and Salia. I really can't think that they have no relationship. Who would have thought that he is the missing son…)

When Xu Zhen returned to this world and even came to this place, Sergio couldn't help but feel a certain kind of fate pulling him. It was as if the gods - or a higher being - had guided Xu Zhen.

Although there was no concrete basis for this, just a dream-filled idea, Sergio couldn't help but feel that it was very likely.

"Well, in that case, I'll just talk about Leo and Salia... Xu Zhen's parents."

This was just a spur-of-the-moment proposal, but Xu Zhen and the others showed great interest. Seeing this, Sergio was in a good mood, and he recalled the past passionately and began to tell the story in a calm tone.
