Chapter 1217 – Ep.1215 Smith, a Black Company in Another World
The originally unfavorable atmosphere became irreparably solidified when the helmet-wearing woman, who seemed to be the leader of the indigenous women, was thrown into a sandy swamp.
No, I thought so.
‘Write it…’ …’
The native women did not even pay attention to the leader stuck in the sand swamp, but were only looking at me like someone possessed by something.
A burdensome level of attention and attention that I haven’t felt in a long time.
It was a look that reminded me of the first time I went up to an auction held in Mallingta.
‘It seems like it’s worse than before.’
Their eyes were flashing as if they were going to attack me at any moment.
If Ardel had not been standing next to me, I would have ended up buried in the soft graves of women’s milk.
‘Now that I think about it, it doesn’t seem that bad.’
In the past, I would have been dried out, but if it were me now, I was confident that I could easily get rid of the number of people there in half a day.
Anyway, I had no intention of continuing like this, so I lightly grabbed Ardel’s buttocks, who had hit the head of an unknown woman over there.
I flinch.
Ardel was radiating life beyond her hostility. When I grabbed her buttocks, her body trembled lightly, and she looked at me with her soft eyes as if she had never done that before.
“Please lighten the mood.”
“It’s not difficult, but before that.”
Ardel grabbed her hood that I had taken off and put it back on my head.
“It’s because of you that they can’t come to their senses, so stay like this even if you’re frustrated.”
“Yes.”
Ardel playfully tapped me on the bridge of the nose and flicked her hand again towards the women who were still looking this way with their stern faces.
Damn bad ───!!
Bright blue ice flowers blooming at the feet of indigenous women.
“”… !!””
In the sudden cold that struck, the native women shivered and looked at the ice flowers that had bloomed beneath their feet.
‘It’s always amazing to see.’
The ice flower that Ardel bloomed was ice with special properties that would not have been green in a normal way. At least as far as I know, the only thing that could melt Ardel’s ice was the intense flames emitted by Amela.
Physical destruction is another story, but in the first place, it is only possible for those who have entered the transcendental world like Siran.
Match! Match! Mate!
When I clapped my hands loudly, the eyes of the women, who began to tremble without being able to escape from the cold coming from below, focused on me again.
“Nothing else, I want to receive your help──”
“Help!”
“Me too!”
“I raised my hand first!!”
“”…””
Even before I could finish speaking, they were shaking and raising their hands above their heads, offering to help each other.
Since I also have a conscience, I thought I would give a generous reward if I could help. But it looks like the case they want has already been decided.
Anyway, although the process was a little strange, the result was what I wanted, so I decided to move first.
“The more, the better, so instead of fighting with that, I want you to take care of the fallen people over there and move to your tribe.”
“Guide!”
“Guest!”
“Strong male!!”
When I briefly listened to the fight earlier, there didn’t seem to be any major problems with language skills. However, in that short period of time, everyone’s speech organs seemed to have been damaged, and like true natives, they only shouted short answers and took care of the fainting woman.
‘What. Was it something you could jump over?’
I was standing still and shivering and thought they were trapped in the ice flowers, but they jumped over the ice flowers and moved in perfect order, as if they had forgotten the existence of the ice flowers.
Of course, they were able to escape because Ardel was careful not to get hurt, but thanks to this, I was able to see how much they were afraid of Ardel’s existence.
“Man! Get in here!”
“Right! The man went comfortably──”
“Shut up.”
The native women, who had been chatting with great excitement, fell silent at Ardel’s cold voice as if they had never done that before.
Then he gently stretched out his arms and held me in his arms like a princess.
“I will follow you on my own, so go.”
“”…””
Her face looked like she wanted to say something, but it seemed like Ardel didn’t have the courage to stand up to her, so they looked at her hesitantly and set off, leading the desert drake they had brought with her.
“No, why bother walking when there is an easier way?!”
“You bitch, please keep your mouth shut.”
Nuit is running around with regret as she sees the raft following the drake, and Ingrim is shaking her head as she looks at Nuit pitifully.
‘I wonder if someone is a goddess.’
I really have no clue.
Look at how I’m grumbling to Ingrim right now, not even knowing that Ardel and Lihina are glaring at me.
“Let’s go.”
“Yes.”
As Ardel, holding me, started, Lihina also took her steps, and naturally Nuit was tied up by Lihina’s rope.
“What?!”
Unlike the wise Ingrim, he lost his balance and fell, and had time to become familiar with the desert with his whole body until he arrived at the native tribe.
**
I must have run for about an hour at the same pace as the indigenous women.
“Is there life in this hellish place?!”
Lihina, who had moved to Ardel’s side behind her, shouted with great emotion as she pointed to her oasis that had begun to appear in the distance.
It was like that. Their tribe was formed around an oasis.
“The warriors are back!”
“We are here!!”
As those who came with us approached with Drake in front, the women on the watchtower shouted loudly, and people from inside the house, which I did not know was made of hardened sand or what it was made of, came rushing out to greet them.
“Daejeonsa is injured!”
“Great, great warrior?!”
“Call the shaman!”
“Papa Laurent!!”
Except for the people carrying the food on the back of Drake, they quickly dispersed within the tribe.
‘It’s worth being afraid.’
The strongest warrior in the tribe was buried in the sand and fainted after a single blow.
Anyway, the atmosphere of the tribe, which was noisy for various reasons, hardened like a lie the moment Ardel, holding me, entered.
“It’s no big deal! Everyone, bring food with you!”
Fortunately, the woman who came with us was able to collect the tribesmen and send them away.
“I will guide you to the chief.”
“Ardel.”
“Yes.”
I got down from Ardel’s arms to walk myself.
“My dear! “I just want to take a shower?”
“Go with Ingrim.”
“Did you hear?! Let’s go quickly!”
“Tsk tsk.”
Ingrim looks pitifully at Nuit, who is busy trying to undo the rope tied to her waist. And the moment the rope was released.
“Huh?!”
Nuit seemed ready to run towards the oasis at any moment, but as soon as the rope was released, she jumped up, clutching her neck, then fell to the ground and desperately grabbed on to the rope that had been released.
“Huh, oh, oh!! W-what is it?! “This climate should not exist!!”
“It’s noisy.”
“Oh, no! Changed my mind… Huh?!”
“I’ll come back.”
“Oh, come back.”
“Kyaaaaa!!”
When Ingrim saw Nuit distressed, she said she didn’t want to go, so she grabbed Nuit by the back of the rope and dragged her mercilessly to her oasis.
“I want you to bring me to where we are later.”
“Ah, I understand. “We, the Skull Tribe, treat our guests with respect!”
“Please do me a favor. Then, ask the chief for guidance.”
“Huh!”
The woman I was talking to grabbed her lower abdomen and squirmed.
“You.”
“I think this is a bit unfair.”
“Still, please be careful.”
We were just having a normal conversation, but they told us to be careful here. It was a very difficult request.
“Please guide me.”
“Ta, follow me…” .”
She took us to the place where the largest tree in the oasis grew.
“Chief. “I brought a guest.”
Look at that.
Their language skills were very good.
-Come in.
Is this the age you can feel from your voice?
Of course, when it comes to age, Ardel and Rihina right next to her were also formidable, but since they are long-lived species and do not age, their age cannot be guessed at all by their voice or appearance, so this is out of the question.
“Just come in.”
A warrior from an unknown tribe invites us in, opening a wall made of hardened sand and a door made of animal bones and skin between them.
We followed her as she walked into her house where her chieftain lived.
“Hehe, you brought great guests.”
A middle-aged woman who appeared to be in her late 40s, and who must have been quite beautiful in her youth, sighed, spitting out her pipe in her mouth as soon as she saw Ardel who came in with me.
“When I heard that the person you were supposed to capture was white-haired, I wondered if you had come in person to set an example?”
“…”
Ardel did not answer the chief’s question.
I didn’t know if it was a question not worth answering, or if it was just an action to let people know that I was the master of our group.
“Chief. No. They came to lend a helping hand to our tribe──”
Taaak!
With a tremendous sound, the pipe held by the chief exploded above the head of the warrior who guided us.
“Stupid bitch. “If you said you were going to kill them all, you would have guided them well.”
“Hey, old lady… Kek!!”
“Tsk tsk.”
The chief hit the warrior on the top of his head with the pipe again, then sat down in a more comfortable position and continued speaking.
“Now that the Margrave himself has come, what can we do? “Go and achieve what you want.”
“That’s right.”
Ardel whispered in my ear and smiled faintly, as if waiting for the answer.
“… ?”
And at Ardel’s reaction, the chief’s eyes finally turned to me.
It seems Ardel’s presence was so strong that he went crazy and didn’t recognize me.
‘Now I know what they were aiming for.’
Ardel probably didn’t like the idea of me forming a relationship with the women of the tribe as a means of transaction. But unfortunately, my thoughts were a little different.
“Chief.”
“… Man?”
When I opened my mouth, the chief’s eyes widened slightly.
I guess I never thought he was a man.
So I ignored Ardel’s warning and took off the hood again.
“Huh… ?”
As soon as the chief saw my face, he dropped the pipe he was holding.
“You told Ardel to do what he wanted and go, but fortunately for you, I have business.”
“Yeah, that’s right… ?”
Unlike the warriors of the tribe who became excited as soon as they saw his face, the chief blinked his eyes with a look of pure surprise.
“I’m trying to make a fair deal, would you listen?”
“… “I’ll listen, but I don’t know if it will make any sense.”
The chief picked up the dropped pipe, took a big lick, and sighed softly.
“Things that have pairs…”
It was a sigh filled with many emotions.
