Chapter 1214 – Ep.1212 Smith, a Black Company in Another World
Wait a moment to stand there while receiving Ardel’s stinging glare.
“Excuse me…”
Aria hastily picked up her clothes and, without even resolving her embarrassment, came to us and stood with her head down.
I had already been caught, and the only thing I could do was talk freely, so I gently pulled the towel in Aria’s hand.
“Uh, well, over there… ?”
“Stay still.”
After taking the towel from her, I began to gently massage and wipe Aria’s head, which was dripping with water.
Like a cat touched by a completely unfamiliar person, Aria tensed so much when I started wiping her head that she straightened her back and stiffened like a finely carved stone statue.
“Have you calmed down?”
“Yes, yes…” .”
It wasn’t like someone was trying to kidnap her, but Aria’s voice was very quiet and cautious, like that of an old man who was about to run out of breath.
“So now, would you like to tell me what happened? Because we need to know the situation so Ardel and I can deal with it.”
“Well, uh, how about…” … ?”
Finally, as she opened her mouth to tell me what had happened, Aria suddenly raised her head, raising her eyebrows slightly. She then blinked, looking back and forth between Ardel standing in front and me standing behind her.
“What’s wrong?”
“No, uh, just…” … ?”
“Just now?”
Was there something?
Let me look at Ardel with a question in mind, saying, ‘Do you know why you are doing that?’
Ardel let out a small sigh, then walked over to me and kissed my cheek.
“… ?!”
Aria’s eyes grew even bigger, as if she had seen something that she could not see in the world.
Ardel said, looking at Aria with her characteristic indifferent eyes.
“He is your new father.”
“Uh, eh, ah?”
Only then did I realize where Aria had broken down. She probably did it because she felt comfortable calling Ardel by her first name.
‘What did you say two years ago…’ … ?’
Was it your mother-in-law?
I think she was called Ardel.
To be honest, the period was so short that I don’t remember her very well.
More than anything, she didn’t know what to call her, but from now on, she hasn’t been called that anymore.
“B-but… ? Oh, brother… Her sister’s… ?”
“He is also Ardella’s husband.”
“To… ?”
Aria’s face became even more confused.
“Polygamy is common, so why are you so surprised?”
“That’s right, that’s right, but…” …”
“Sharing your daughter’s boyfriend is quite common among nobles.”
“That too, but… Not everyone else… To my mother… Kwak?!”
Ardel took the towel from her hands and pressed it so hard that she almost crushed Arya’s head.
“She must have felt lighter now that Ardella and I were away from her place. “Why are you talking back to me now about what you did well?”
This is not possible.
If it had been a private conversation between mother and daughter a little while ago, it had now turned into a public conversation, judging by Ardel’s clearly changed tone of voice.
Of course, if I intervene, Ardel will also give in…
‘Why?’
It’s not that I hate Aria, but Ardel was more important to me than her, so I decided to stay calm for Ardel’s authority.
“Aria.”
“Huh! Omg! Yes, yes!!”
As her narrowed, cold gaze fell on me, Aria lowered her barely raised head and shook her shoulders slightly.
Come to think of it, Ardella had a hard time with Ardelle at the same time, until she and her body came together in Ardelle’s bedroom that day two years ago.
Not to mention twins.
“I would have told you to focus on strengthening your capabilities to the best of your ability.”
“Sorry… “I do.”
“If I apologize for something I have already done, does anything change?”
“Oh, no…”
It’s heavy.
Despite being the most adorable youngest daughter, I felt like I was repeating the scene two years ago when Ardel was yelling at her twin when all the leaders were gathered together, seeing Ardel pressuring her and not giving her any affection from her family.
“Did I give birth to you as a stutterer?”
“No… !!”
At this point, the thought that I came here for no reason began to creep into my head. But since it was impossible to come and leave now, I decided to just take a look at Aria’s breasts, which were buttoned loosely and opened up so that her inner skin was clearly visible.
“Now let me briefly explain what happened.”
“Frozen… Together with Lord Arua, he led his troops and went to the desert to investigate! The purpose was to find rare gems brought by monsters and another colony of rare plants growing in the desert!”
“The current inflow alone would be enough to accumulate wealth.”
“…”
“Continue.”
“On the second day… I fell into a sandy swamp. Although he was slow, he was unable to escape on his own, and when his body was half buried, he was discovered and rescued by the natives.”
From what I heard up to this point, it sounded like I wasn’t caught in a trap made by the natives, but was really unlucky and almost died in a sand hell, but was saved by a desert tribe that happened to pass by.
“We were rescued one by one, but in the process, all of them were disarmed and captured. In return for their rescue, they asked for preserved food that could feed two hundred people for five months.”
“Those who failed to return are hostages until food is brought to them.”
“… “Yes.”
Aria, who was already completely discouraged, could not help but lower her head and lowered her body as if she was about to fall face down.
‘It’s really no big deal.’
The requirement is not 2,000 people, but only preserved food to feed 200 people for 5 months.
There are more than 5,000 soldiers residing in the fortress.
The food procured is procured by expensive wagons with a preservation spell at the top of the black line, so it can be said that there is virtually no expiration date.
Not a month, but 15 days.
Even if we subtract just that amount of food for a few days, the needs of the natives would easily be met.
It was really nothing special compared to what I had experienced to the point where I thought this way, but the reason why Aria, who had come into the bedroom with Ardel, had an ecstatic expression on her face was probably because she had tarnished the family Ardel had built.
It would have been better if we had fought a fierce battle.
I almost lost all my precious knights and soldiers in the natural disaster I encountered due to lack of research and lack of awareness of the dangers of the desert. Even if it were me, I would have been speechless because I had nothing to say.
“Pathetic.”
“…”
I thought it was a little harmful, but unfortunately, it seemed that Aria was not included in the scope of the harm.
“The location is.”
“The direction is… “I remember.”
“I will leave as soon as the food is ready, so go back and rest until then.”
“Yes…”
Aria left her place without raising her head until the moment she left.
“Ha…”
As soon as Aria left, Ardel let out a deep sigh and threw the towel in her hand into her basket.
“You didn’t look good.”
“Specifically? Rather, it was nice because it reminded me of the old days.”
“I mean, I don’t like that.”
“Ouch.”
Ar Del, who was staring at Aria coldly, pouted his lips at me and playfully pinched my side.
‘It would be right not to get involved in this.’
Just looking at how she treated Aria a moment ago and how she treated me now, it was difficult for her to shake the thought that Ardel was treating Aria more like a woman she was acquainted with than her daughter.
“Go back first and rest. “I will send you the mold along with the meal.”
“I’m having a hard time.”
“If you think so, how about cheering him up?”
In response to her actions, I gently hugged her waist and lightly kissed her lips.
“See you later.”
Ardel, feeling much better, kissed the bridge of my nose and left her place first.
Left alone, I looked around for a moment, cleaned up the mess, went out, and returned to the bedroom.
“Judging by the expression on his face, it doesn’t seem like it was a big deal.”
“Yes.”
After returning to the bedroom, I briefly explained the situation to Rihina.
“It’s really no big deal.”
There was nothing else to do until the preparations were over, so like Ardel said, I spent some time sitting on the sofa with Lihina and Ingrim on either side of me, touching their soft bodies.
Take a moment to enjoy the unique soft touch that only women can feel.
Knock. Knock. Knock.
Someone knocked on the bedroom door.
Because I had heard from Ardel in advance, I could easily tell who was behind the door without having to hear the voice.
So, I got up and opened the door myself.
“… ?”
“It’s been a long time.”
When I opened the door, a woman of similar size to Kalm, but much more mature, raised her head and made eye contact with me.
“Are you Smith?”
“Yes. “I am.”
“Huh.”
Mold lifted her up onto her tiptoes and stretched out her hands.
“Before, it still reached the solar plexus.”
Her skin is so fair that it’s hard to believe that she works in a blacksmith shop pounding iron all day long.
Of course, her skin is not as white as other women, but even that only makes her healthy beauty stand out.
Tuk-tuk.
“… ?”
Mold, who was looking up to me, suddenly tapped my groin with her rough hand.
“It’s not like he just got bigger. She might actually die now.”
Her world, her serious face, her pants, her mine, her secret weapon that might be hidden beyond that, as I was looking at her, her smile came out for no reason, and I knew that it was rude of her. Even so, I lifted her up.
“What!!”
Instead, instead of holding her like a child, take her position a step further and sit her on your shoulder.
“Uhm. “Is this the air above?”
As she was about to get upset, she immediately put on a satisfied expression and naturally put one of her arms around my head.
“Is that the mother of the elf I saw back then? “They look alike.”
As soon as Mold, who was looking around on her shoulder, saw Lihina’s face sitting on her sofa, she mentioned me.
“It looks like you and my daughter are in a relationship.”
“I don’t remember having a separate conversation, but it’s not like we don’t know each other. Anyway, everyone is hungry, so let’s go get something to eat.”
She lightly patted my head and urged me to walk, then quietly lowered her upper body and whispered to me.
“You can see me separately later.”
It was a secret whisper that seemed to have a purpose separate from Ardel’s request.
