Chapter 1011 – Ep.1009 Smith, a Black Company in Another World
The last time we communicated was three months ago.
“Wait a minute.”
Before I could respond to Millia’s answer, Siron, who had been listening to our story in silence, intervened and said.
“After listening to what she said, that woman, Ardel… No, un…”
“”…””
When Siron suddenly stuttered due to the issue of Ardel’s title, the wives’ eyes suddenly turned to me.
“Wouldn’t it be okay if I called her sister?”
In fact, she is similar in age to Amela, so she calls her sister. But it seems that Siron had different thoughts.
“The other sisters were virgins like me. But Ardel… You have two more daughters in Ardella… Something is wrong.”
“Uhm…”
After listening to it, I understood Siron’s feelings.
Without having to go far, the only people who called Siran their sister were Amela and Nemea. The rest were calling Ardel by the same honorific title as she had just given her.
“Anyway, I think there’s something wrong with Ardel. Is that right?”
At Siron’s question, the wives’ eyes turned to me again.
“Not sure yet. “When I stopped by the temple, one of the popes from the coalition side said something that bothered me.”
“What did you say?”
“I heard there was a Holy Knight who escaped here safely a few days ago. It seems that the paladin had information related to Ardel. Of course, this is not certain either. Anyway, they said Ardel is in quite a difficult situation right now.”
“Ha, that really sounds like nonsense…”
Shiron roughly brushed his bangs and said, resting his chin on the table.
“If her mom or aunts were involved… It may not be a difficult situation, but a dangerous situation.”
It was just as Siron said.
It is none other than Ardel, the fifth star among the Ten Demon Stars.
Considering that the above are Ravel, Ellis, Siran, and Vizelin, all of whom are Siran’s sisters, it was safe to say that, in fact, other than those sisters, there was no one on this continent who could do anything to Ardel.
The problem is that the sisters mentioned above have now all turned into enemies.
“Stir~”
In a moment of silence, Nyaho carefully raised his hand and asked for the right to speak.
“Uh, why?”
“First of all, I don’t think it’s something Shiron is worried about.”
“Why?”
“If it is true that among the people Siron is worried about, there is no way that a paladin could come out alive.”
“I agree with my cat.”
After drinking her water and coming to her senses, Amela gently scratched Nyaho’s chin and continued.
“Even if it turns out that one of those monsters was involved, there’s no need to worry about that ice witch Ardel right now.”
“Ugh~ Ma, that’s right…” Even if that’s true, there must be a reason why the Holy Knight was sent alive… Nyahaan~”
“Oh my.”
As her hand scratched her chin, Amela scratched her cheek with an embarrassed expression and continued what Nya Ho could not say.
“Like you said, this guy was saved for a reason, right? And the reason is.”
Amela’s finger, which was scratching Nyaho’s chin, pointed at me.
“It must be you.”
“For sure.”
I also agreed with that, so I nodded my head once and spoke to Beneo, who was still standing.
“So, Beneo? Please take a seat first.”
“… I understand.”
When she gave up her job as a knight and brought Drake in El as her severance pay, she was talking about Ardel as simply a business relationship, but she seemed to have built up a lot of affection, knowingly or unknowingly, as she had known him for a long time.
“Milia.”
“Yes. “Father.”
While we were talking, her expression and voice seemed to have calmed down a bit, perhaps because she had managed to control her emotions.
“Where was she when she was last contacted by Ardel?”
“It was the capital.”
“Capital?”
“Yes. Talk to King Vittorio IV so that La-Rocha and the people your husband has collected can freely roam the kingdom… Um, threats? Anyway, that’s why he was staying in the capital.”
“Ugh, rather than just having a conversation among ourselves, I think it would be better to bring the driver who ran away and listen to his story.”
Nyaho came back to his senses after being spread out and cautiously participated in the conversation.
“We may not be able to trust everything the Paladin says, but at least there will be some truth mixed in, so we must filter it out and listen carefully. Of course.”
Nyaho looked at me and curled the corners of her eyes seductively.
“If the opponent is a female, it will be impossible for her to stand up to the West, no matter who she is.”
“Well, that’s right.”
“Maybe torture would be easier to endure?”
“Hmm, like Siron said, stabbing and hitting torture would be easier to endure.”
What is it, can I take this as a compliment?
It’s not that bad, but it’s not good either… I felt a very subtle feeling in the conversation of the women in the family who added strange nuance to Nyaho’s words and affirmed them.
“Hmm! “Milia?”
“Please speak. “Father.”
“I will do my best to find out about Ardel. But are things okay these days?”
“Thanks to you, it’s very peaceful there now. And it’s a bit disappointing that Aria and Arua have been motivating us, but somehow things are going well.”
The border fortress guarded by Ardel was a fortress built to block the monsters and desert people that came every cycle.
However, as I won the battle of pride against the King of the South and collected all the so-called great warriors, most of the monsters with a certain level of intelligence were all collected by me.
Thanks to this, monsters no longer attacked the fortress, and furthermore, the top of the Black Ship was caught in the middle, and their pockets were filled with rare gems and other valuable items that could only be found in the desert.
‘Now that I think about it, the timing was perfect.’
If that pig hadn’t appeared then, I wouldn’t have been able to melt Ardel’s butt, and maybe Beneo wouldn’t have been here either.
“That’s a good thing.”
“I think the same thing.”
“Haha… You may have a lot to say, but I will meet you again after listening to the paladin that the Alliance has sent. Then, let’s listen to all the words that have been stored up inside Millia.”
“Are you sure you don’t mind? “There’s a lot of stuff piled up.”
“As much as you want.”
I also knew my sins, so I had no intention of letting this go.
“Since my husband said so much, I will go back now.”
“Beneo.”
“… I understand.”
“I won’t decline. “I honestly didn’t have the confidence to walk all the way to the security post because I was stuck inside.”
“I will come back.”
Beneo and Milio left the kitchen first.
“So, when will the paladin be sent?”
“The Sith will be listening, so they will probably send someone to bring him back as quickly as possible.”
Maybe.
【What is probably? It’s quite unpleasant.】
‘It’s a joke. A joke.’
【It’s noisy. I sent Nemea, so if they have any ideas, they will give me an answer.】
‘I will wait patiently until then.’
After hearing Sis’s answer, she calmed down and spoke to her wives who were staring at her.
“I’ve summoned you seriously, but I have nothing more to say.”
“Okay? “Then can I go up?”
“Huh? Ah, uh. Go up and rest.”
“Kkkk. Sister? Let’s go.”
“Okay.”
Just like that, Siron and Kernax left the kitchen again.
“Tsk, I guess I should stop by the temple too.”
“A temple?”
“Uh. “I think I’ll have to move soon, so I’m going to take Gomtaeng out and warm up.”
“… “Don’t go too far.”
“I’ll figure it out.”
I quietly expressed my condolences to Adrian, and Amela left to catch Adrian, who was resting well.
“I’m going to go see May and see if there’s any other news.”
“I need to ask you a favor.”
“Hehe, don’t worry.”
Finally, let’s leave the kitchen until Nyaho. It’s me and Giena here. And only Rita, the subject of today’s training, remained.
“Rita.”
[Yes. Senior.
‘… ?’
Gienna, whose title had suddenly become senior, spoke to Rita.
“Go up and bring Melbourne. Even if I don’t tell you the location, I believe you can find it.”
[All right.
While giving her answer, Rita glanced in this direction, and when I didn’t say anything, she lowered her head slightly and walked away.
“Mr. Smith.”
“Uh.”
As I approached her, I spoke to her with a very serious expression.
“It’s not that I don’t know Beneo’s feelings, but I think his behavior today was very disrespectful and disrespectful to Mr. Smith.”
“That… Is that what happens?”
“You are too soft for us. Of course, I love that part too.”
No, if you suddenly come in…
“Hmm! So, so?”
“I was thinking about how to conduct education, and as punishment for this incident, let’s use Beneo as a teaching aid.”
“Kyobojae?”
After nodding her head once, he slipped his hand into her cleavage and took out the leash he had seen so many times before.
“Yes. Let us show her new protégés that even that Beneo becomes a well-trained female when you demand obedience.”
