Smith， a Black Company in Another World 3

Chapter 3 – Ep.3 Smith, a Black Company in Another World

The city of Mallingta is a thriving place, similar to a small or medium-sized city in modern times. It is especially crowded with people because the east has facilities related to magic and the west has temples.

“It seems bigger than when I was there before. Did they expand again?”

I opened the door and went inside to meet Vizelin, a master of living magic and owner of the massive building before her eyes.

“Welcome~”
“Hello.”

If Ms. Bizelin, who remains in the form of a girl, grows up to become a mature woman, wouldn’t she look like this?

Mr. Bizelin’s assistant, Ms. Shio Lin, who had such a striking resemblance to her, greeted her brightly, hugging her now voluptuous breasts.

I also smiled and greeted him politely.

“What’s going on?”
“It’s no different because I suddenly had to leave the city. “Would you please tell Bizelin that I won’t be able to return for a few days?”
“Oh, you’re leaving the city? “If it’s not rude, is it okay if I ask why?”
“Uh… “I’m a little embarrassed too, but someone reported discovering a new labyrinth and asked me to investigate whether it was true or not.”
“Hmm~ I see. “But I will tell this to Master.”
“Thank you. “By the way, where did Bizelin go?”
“No. I’m having a brief conversation above with someone who came out of the temple. I think he will come down soon, so you can have a cup of tea with me and wait. Hohoho~”
“Thank you for your kind words, but it looks like there are people waiting, so I think I’ll have to go now.”
“I was joking too. Then, please be careful. No matter what happens, just think about your own safety, Mr. Smith. “Did you know?”
“Hehe, of course.”

No matter what anyone says, my life comes first.

With that, I left Mr. Bizelin’s building with lighter steps and ran toward the east gate.

“Three punishment. But how do I know who is who?”

When I arrived at the east gate, I realized that it would not be easy to find adventurers to join me in the crowd of people buzzing like a swarm of ants.

If I at least knew the personal information of the adventurer who was the leader, I would try running around a bit more, but unfortunately I heard nothing about him.

“You bastard. “Didn’t you just tell me to pick and eat it?”

I was even more angry because it was a plausible enough development.

“Big, Smith of the Adventurer’s Guild?”
“Oh, yes.”

At the sound of clanking iron, she put pressure on her shoulder and turned her head, and there stood a blunt beauty wearing silver greaves made of iron.

“Oh, sorry. Have you ever obstructed traffic? “I’ll go somewhere else right away.”
“No. “It’s not like that, so just calm down, Smith.”

When I saw the appearance of a beautiful woman wearing the silver greaves worn by the security forces of Mallingta City, I was very nervous, wondering if I might be captured, but the blunt beauty calmed me down.

“Big. “Are there any adventurers who decided to join us today?”
“Uh… Do you know any adventurers looking for me? “We formed an investigation team to find out whether there was a newly discovered labyrinth, and I had to participate in it.”
“Ah, I guess you’re right. Can you see the carriage over there? “The guys in that carriage were waiting for someone from the guild to be dispatched.”
“And!! Thank you!!”
“Ah, ah, no…”

I was so grateful to her that I grabbed the beauty’s gauntleted hand and gave it a small shake.

If I went back thinking it was a waste of money, I would have been really screwed.

“Hmm… But Smith.”
“Oh, yes.”

Seeing him blush slightly and call my name, I let go of his hand and took a polite stance again.

The beauty looked slightly disappointed for a moment, but then continued with what she had been saying.

“I just wanted to ask again if I heard something wrong. Is it really true that you are going out to investigate the labyrinth?”
“Yes. I am correct. “I was a little embarrassed too, but since I was a decent receptionist, they told me to go.”
“Okay. Right. I understand. “Then I have work to do, so I’ll pray for you to arrive safely.”
“Hehe, thank you.”

I bowed her head slightly and the beauty nodded once with a satisfied look on her face and returned to her original position.

-No, Captain!! What are you going to do if you set up a good atmosphere and then just show up without even saying you can have a drink later?!
-Ugh, so I didn’t say I was going? What do you want from your 30-year-old wife?
-Si, you’re noisy, you bitches!!

They seemed to be shaking because they were talking quietly, but perhaps because they had good voices, it reached my ears.

Thanks to this, she learned that the blunt-faced beauty whose hand I had held and shook earlier was the head of the city’s security guard.

Next time I see you again, I’ll have to flatter you even more politely.

With that in mind, I walked towards the location the guard captain told me about, and at a glance, I saw that she was alone, a female adventurer wearing light armor on her body that was equivalent to that of a guard, and started talking to me as if she had been waiting.

“Mr. Smith, are you by any chance the guild employee who decided to go to investigate the labyrinth?”
“Yes. It just so happened that it happened that way. “Am I very late?”
“No. “I didn’t even notice how time passed by just talking among ourselves.”

What. Are you going to turn it around?

“By the way, you don’t have any luggage?”
“Yes. They told me to just go without taking anything else. To be honest, I’m still a little embarrassed. “They came early in the morning and suddenly pushed me away.”
“Haha. I understand. Well, according to what the reporter said, the labyrinth is about a day away from here, so we will take care of everything like food and sleeping. “Let’s get on the carriage first.”

I quietly got into the carriage without saying anything.

Soon, other adventurers climbed onto the wagon with their luggage, and the leader, who was chatting excitedly with me last, gave the driver the order to start and got on the wagon.

The carriage passed through the security guard without any inspection, as if arrangements had been made in advance, and started running outside.

Growling.

Damn it.

Not long after the carriage started, my stomach started to fuss.

That’s right, by now it’s time to crumple up the roasted meat of an unknown animal that Amela made, but nothing goes into the stomach, so it seems like the stomach is very upset.

“It’s big, I don’t know if it will suit your taste, but would you like to eat this first?”
“I will accept it gratefully.”

I am Smith from the frontier desert. I left all my pride behind in the desert.

“It’s nice to see you eating well. And since we are going to be spending at least three days together, it would be nice to introduce ourselves briefly. My name is Dahlia. And this one…”

Against my will, Dahlia, the leader of this place and the one who handed me the beef jerky earlier, took turns briefly introducing the names and careers of the other adventurers.

I listened with one ear and just concentrated on chewing the beef jerky, which had been seasoned moderately with salt and pepper.

In any case, unless you are a silver-level adventurer, you will not be able to talk face-to-face, and it will not be common for you to be dispatched like today.

Roughly speaking, among the eight adventurers on the carriage, the only person to remember was the leader, Dahlia.

Surprisingly, Dahlia said that if he gained a little more experience, he would be able to take the silver level examination, so I figured it wouldn’t hurt to keep that in mind.

Additionally, when I heard that I might be in the same class as that fearsome Shiron, for some reason, my skin became whiter, my breasts looked a little bigger, and I started to look prettier.

Please note that this is not a sexual meaning, but rather an expression that is reassuring enough to protect the safety of my body.

In this world, it seems that the more beautiful a woman is, the stronger she is.

“We have to walk from here. Everyone get down!!”

While I was appeasing my hunger with beef jerky, the exciting carriage stopped near a forest and Dahlia quickly gathered her luggage and got off the carriage while giving instructions to the other adventurers.

I could only get out of the carriage after everyone had left.

“Good job. Oh, and please bring this letter to James.”
“Of course. “Then, thank you for your hard work.”

The female coachman, who was a bit mischievous, drove her carriage and disappeared towards Mallingta.

“According to the information provided by the reporter, monsters and beasts will appear from here, so Mr. Smith, please do not be too alarmed and just stay calm.”
“Yes.”

Honestly, I’m so hungry that I don’t even have the strength to open my mouth and sleep.

I just shut up, stood in the center of the women, and walked into the forest together under their protection.

Four trilogy, four trilogy.

Although I haven’t done anything since the training camp, I could at least know that the women surrounding me were observing their surroundings much better than me and my classmates at the time.

It’s inevitable that it’s common for people to lose their lives due to a moment’s mistake or carelessness here.

Rather, the deeper I got into the forest, the more I could feel my bladder tightening in real time, no joke.

Perhaps because I had been living in a safe city for a while, my skin felt tingly from the tension brought on by the sudden change in environment and the pressure emanating from the surroundings.

Growling-!!

“…”
“… “Puhup.”

Thrive. Such a clueless bastard.

“It’s a little early, but we’ll have a quick meal and then move on.”

Such a perceptive bastard.

**

Crack, crack!

After eating our first meal with my very sharp watch, we went deeper into the forest.

Fortunately, there were no attacks from monsters or beasts so far, and thanks to that, we were able to travel a greater distance than expected and find a place to sleep.

Well, the only way to sleep is to light a bonfire, set up a tent using tree branches, or wrap a blanket or cloth around your body.

“If I came across an animal, I would catch it and roast it, so I’m sorry for this.”
“No. “I didn’t prepare anything, but I got it like this, so what more can I ask?”
“Haha, Mr. Smith is a gentleman among gentlemen compared to the men from Mallingta. So… Would you like a drink of this?”

Dahlia handed over a small metal bottle along with lightly grilled beef jerky.

“What is this?”
“It’s nothing special, it’s cheap wine.”

Oh wow. Wine.

I was getting sick of always drinking bland beer, but I never thought I would be able to taste wine here.

“Then I will accept it without hesitation.”
“I have another bottle, so you can drink it all.”

I didn’t even have time to answer, so I quickly put a piece of beef jerky in my mouth and opened the bottle.

A sweet yet spicy scent entered my nose, and my mouth started watering, so I quickly placed my lips on the stem of the bottle and took a gulp.

“Puh-ha~!”

Unlike beer, which is extremely bland, the sweet yet bitter taste made me empty the bottle like drinking water.

“I’m glad it seemed like you got hit in the mouth.”
“It’s so delicious that it’s a shame to even compare it to the beer sold at the guild.”
“Haha, that’s right. “Because it contains drugs that are so expensive that they cannot be compared to cheap ones like that.”

At that moment, my eyeballs started rolling.

“Uh, uh… Uh?”
“Use it, fuck it. But I never thought I would drink it all… “I don’t know if this is going to work.”

I could tell something was very wrong, but I wasn’t really worried. All you have to do is keep your limbs intact and your life intact.

But as my consciousness drifted away, a sound that made me wake up reached my ears.

“Hehe, I heard that the ladies of the Kingdom of Philoren enjoy playing with men so much. I wonder how much it will sell for.”

My mind became dizzy.
