Smith， a Black Company in Another World 93

Chapter 93 – Ep.93 Smith, a Black Company in Another World

“For a mock war, the atmosphere is quite scary.”

In an atmosphere that was extremely cruel, a clear, isolated voice instantly colored the surroundings.

The cold sweat on my back stopped, and my pounding heart gradually regained its normal heart rate.

“Cernax.”
“… Yes.”

Kernax’s voice, which had risen in pitch, regained its usual calm.

“Was it during a mock battle?”
“Ah-“
“Haha, of course! You saw it right away. We were just moving our formation to have a mock battle similar to the real one. Sure.”

It wasn’t enough that the bitch dared to cut off Kernax’s words, so she started whining and telling lies.

“Who are you?”
“Ah!! The introduction is late. My name is Rania Biorin, the eldest daughter of Viscount Biorin. “Please feel free to call me Rania.”
“Of course. “Rania.”
“Yes.”
“If you cut my knight off one more time, I will rip out your tongue, so be careful.”
“…”

The air around me became heavy.
But my heart was light.
It was very savory.

“Cernax.”
“Yes. “This is my first time hearing about a mock battle.”
“Right. “Then what is the reason for this confrontation?”
“That…”

Kernax calmly explained the events that occurred after arriving here, without leaving out a single detail.

“Hmm. “I guess that’s why those marks on the carriage were made.”
“That’s right.”
“This is so absurd.”

There was a mix of laughter here and there, as if it was genuinely ridiculous.

“Is the Viscount’s second daughter here?”
“… “I am Renia Biorin, the second daughter.”
“Who hit you?”
“… “I let my guard down for a moment while training.”
“What. I’ll move on to that. Okay. From what I heard, the person in charge here is the second daughter, Renia. She was told that you were in charge. But looking at the current situation, I feel like I didn’t receive the message well. “I’ll give you a chance to explain.”
“That is…”

Her poor younger daughter, Leni Ara, who was believed to have been slapped by a young woman, tried hard to hide her trembling voice and explained the situation slowly and clearly to the point that it was a pity for everyone who heard her.

The situation was like this.

Originally, Bunjojal’s eldest daughter, Rania, should have been fighting a battle for her territory in another city and cleaning up after it. However, as if something had suddenly blown up in her, the other party who had applied for the land transfer suddenly paid compensation and inherited the land deposit.

This person, Jojal, who had nothing to do, arrived in Bazelan with her soldiers, citing the reason that she was helping her second daughter, Renia, instead of staying in the city.

“Right. By the way, Renia.”
“Yes.”
“The eldest daughter came to support her, but why did she ask why that thing was acting as her head, and why does she keep talking nonsense?”
“Well, that…” .”
“The person in charge officially appointed by your father, Viscount Biorin, is clearly you, Rhenia. “Am I wrong?”
“No, ah, no…” You’re right.”
“The person in charge here is still Renia. She is you Am I right?”
“… You’re right.”
“Good night. Then, the last question. I heard that our side warned us that the carriage was a symbol of the family. Nevertheless, that thing dared to damage the carriage and mobilized soldiers to try to tear it down, right? Do you admit that this is true? “If there is a lie, tell me now.”
“… Everything, everything is true.”

The atmosphere became even heavier.

“Bellanis.”
“Yes. “Captain.”
“Cut off one of its legs and kill all the rest.”
“Yes.”

Sreung-!!

A sharp sound was heard.

“Everyone, don’t move!! Lord Ardella!!”

Her second daughter urgently called Mistress Ardella.
I could clearly feel the urgency and nervousness in his voice.

“I admit that Rania and her soldiers committed a crime. But it’s so… This is too excessive. The fact that this is not the County of Filoria, but our Viscounty of Viorin… Please consider it.”
“This decision was made after taking everything into consideration. “Bellanis.”

As Lady Ardella called out to Lord Belanis, the sharp sound of swords being pulled out all at once was heard nearby.

“Heek?!”
“Please save me!!”
“We were just following orders!!”

The soldiers’ screams of fear instantly consumed the surroundings.
It was at that time that it was turning into a place of confusion.

“Sogaju.”

Sir Beneo’s voice was heard clearly, calmly suppressing the loud screams of the soldiers.

“Please stop for a moment.”
“Sure.”

At Sir Beneo’s request, the surroundings instantly became quiet.

“If you have something to say, say it.”
“Let me borrow your ears for a moment.”
“I know.”

The sound of Lord Beneo’s iron boots sounded regularly and stopped at some point.
It seems that he has arrived at Ardella’s side.

“… “Is it true?”
“Yes. “If a situation like this happens, the head of the family told me to tell the truth to the head of the So family.”
“…”
“Then.”

The sound of iron boots was heard again, and the sound stopped with a ‘grrr.’ Sound.
I could see that the Bene Pentateuch had returned to its original position.
The atmosphere, which seemed like something terrible and confusing was going to happen, suddenly turned chaotic.

Here and there came the sounds of hiccups, gasps, or faint moans that sounded like crying in fear.

Everyone was waiting for Ardella to open her mouth.

“… “Renia.”
“Yes, yes!!”
“Disarm the soldiers and imprison them all.”
“Go… Thank you!!”

The second daughter, Renia, seemed to think that Lady Ardella might change her words again and asked, ‘What are you doing!! ‘Drop your weapons now and everyone kneel!!’ She shouted. She then ordered her soldiers to throw her into prison at her command.

“Rania.”
“Yes… “Yes.”

Unlike her younger daughter, who had regained her vitality, our eldest daughter Jojal responded to Lady Ardella’s call weakly, as if she was on the verge of falling.

“Come here.”
“…”

A moment of silence. And-

“Ugh… !!”

A word came out of the eldest daughter’s mouth along with the sound of something being kicked.

“Get up.”
“Yes, yes…” … Ugh… !!”
“Get up.”
“… “Big!!”
“Get up.”
“Save me…”
“Get up. “If you won’t, I’ll cut off all those unnecessary legs.”
“… Hehe.”

Along with her eldest daughter’s terrified screams, an unknown number of screams came from her eldest daughter’s mouth, and the noisy surroundings naturally quieted down.

“Ugh… Big… Yo, forgive me…”
“Renia.”
“… Yes.”
“Take care of it so that I can’t see it. “If you show yourself to me again before you leave the city, I will cut off your legs.”
“Yes. And… Thank you for looking into the situation.”
“Clean it up.”
“… “Take them to the annex.”

After the second daughter finished speaking, no one could be heard outside for a while.
All I could hear was someone’s footsteps constantly.

“… Huh.”

It was around this time that the sound of footsteps started to decrease.
Lady Ardella suddenly cleared her throat.
All right. The sound of horses’ hooves got closer little by little.
The sound of the horses’ hooves getting closer stopped.

“Adventurer Shiron… “What are you doing there?”
“… “I’m carrying out a request.”
“By any chance, who is that request protecting?”

Siron just nodded.

“And the person being protected is a man I know?”
“But.”
“… Haaaaa.”

Lady Ardella let out a very long sigh.

“… “It’s all over, so it’s okay to leave.”
“I was already planning to leave.”

Siron still answered Ardella crookedly.
Still, where is the constant respect?
Anyway, Siron got off the carriage first, so Mr. Na followed her.

The two people who got off the carriage looked at me and extended their hands.
No matter how much I thought about it, I was much bigger than the two of them, but I felt like I was being treated like a child.
Of course, that didn’t mean they didn’t hold hands.
I held their hands and got off the carriage.

“Hi.”

When I got off the carriage, I was almost instinctively startled.

This is because everyone was looking at me as the knights armed with silver armor and horses lined up next to Ardella.
No joke, it was so shiny that I thought I would go blind.

“Hmm. “It’s that outfit from last time.”
“Yes? Ah, yes. That’s right.”

I answered very politely towards Ardella, who was looking at me with his visor up, and nodded his head.

“What about meals?”
“Not yet.”
“Right. “Renia.”
“…”

Lady Ardella called her second daughter, Renia, but Renia did not answer.
Everyone’s eyes were focused on Renia, but none other than Renia was staring blankly at my face.

When I looked closely, I saw that not only her second daughter, Renia, but also the soldiers and knights under her were staring at me blankly.

“Keuhum!!”

Kernax coughed with obvious displeasure.
Lenia’s dazed eyes widened and her face instantly turned red.

“S-sorry.”
“Done. “I’d rather just go inside, but what do you think?”
“Ah!! Yes, I told you to prepare a dinner party. Jenna!!”

As her second daughter shouted as if calling for someone, a short-haired woman jumped out from among her soldiers.

“Yes!!”
“Guide the soldiers to a place to rest and have a meal together.”
“All right!!”

A soldier named Jenna saluted and ran to our soldiers and asked, ‘Is there a centurion commander?’ And Lina came out confidently saying ‘It’s me.’

While the two were whispering something, their second daughter, Renia, continued.

“We have prepared a separate banquet hall for the knights. “I will tell you to build a barracks where you can rest before the dinner is over.”
“Don’t worry about this and take more care of the soldiers.”
“I will.”

Her second daughter bowed her head to Ardella.

“Well then, let’s go inside first. “Our drivers will be in charge of guiding the drivers.”
“Sure.”

Lady Ardella lightly got off the horse.

“Bellanis. Request.”
“Yes. “Captain.”

Sir Belanis, wearing a visor, walked over with a horse and grabbed the reins of the horse that Lady Ardella was riding.

After speaking, Ardella came towards me very naturally.
Lady Ardella glanced at Siron and Gienna who were on either side of me and then spoke.

“If it’s an escort, how about going backwards like an escort?”
“… “This is safer.”
“Depending on the situation, that can happen. “But it doesn’t seem necessary to be that close here.”
“Well. “Looking at the kids here rolling their eyes, it doesn’t seem very safe.”

Siron responded to Ardella’s words with a sharp reply.
The good news was that Ardella didn’t look that upset.
Additionally, Ardella’s knights didn’t seem to care much.

Rather, her second daughter, Lenia, who was preparing to guide her to the castle, and some people were watching the argument between the two with anxious faces.
By the way, some of those people include me.

“…”
“…”

Lady Ardella and Siron looked at each other in silence.
No, I think staring is a more appropriate expression.
Lady Ardella, who had been glaring at me for a while, suddenly extended her hand towards me.

I see Ardella’s hand held out to me and Ardella’s face. And even Siron’s face next to him. He had to turn his head a total of three times.

For your information, Ardella’s face was that uniquely grave face, and Siron’s eyebrows were already joined together in a V shape.
It was easy for anyone to see that he was really upset.

“My hands are empty.”
“…”

In front, Lady Ardella was waving her hands, and a very creepy sound began to come out of Shiron’s mouth next to her.

What.
I think I’ve been in this situation once before.
Ah. I remembered.
When I first saw Ardella at the temple, I was in a similar situation.
People grow up. But this damn situation also grew and came to me.

Everyone’s attention was focused.
Of course, considering Lady Ardella’s identity and position here, it was only right to hold Lady Ardella’s hand. But that didn’t work out.

It was at that time when I was in a dizzy state and was worrying over and over again.

Slurp.

“Uh?”

In an instant, my body rose into the air along with a heavy feeling in my lower back.

-Grunt.

Drake, who had been calm all this time, suddenly stood up, wrapped his tail around me, and lifted me up.

Everyone was momentarily taken aback.
But even though I was embarrassed, I praised Drake very much in my heart.

My body, floating in the air, slowly came down.
However, the location was a little strange.

“…”
“… ?”

I landed right next to Sir Beneo.
And that too in a very tight state.

Everyone’s eyes, including Ardella’s, turned to me and Sir Beneo.

“…”

Lord Beneo took a step to the side.

-Grunt.

Slurp.

Drake’s tail wrapped around my waist again and pulled me into Sir Beneo’s side.

“…”
“…”

An awkward silence continued for a while.
