Chapter 918 – Ep.916 Smith, a Black Company in Another World
The party that went to find information in the direction of Goldias Kingdom returned only when the rain began to weaken little by little.
“How was it?”
“Don’t even say anything. “There was no such thing as a complete mess.”
Marvius said in annoyance that he could have used a cleansing spell, but he dared to ask me to bring a towel and wipe his head.
“It is said that the capital was completely overthrown by those cultists, but a new dynasty was also established, and one year would be enough time to establish some foundation.”
“So?”
“They say that as the news spreads that the empire has collapsed, stabbings are happening every day throughout the kingdom.”
“A stabbing?”
“Okay. “These idiots rose up to take advantage of the chaos and take care of their own interests at a time when their combined efforts were not enough.”
Marvius clenched his small fists as if he was very upset.
“Now, take a slow breath~ If you get too angry, it’s not good for your health.”
“… Phew.”
Only after repeating his breathing in and out a few times after me did Marvius regain his composure.
“Anyway, that place is in trouble because of the civil war, right?”
“Okay. “It seems like the King faction is having a hard time just guarding the area around the capital.”
“What about the demons?”
“Didn’t the temple remove Goldia’s feet once because he was a pet mummy in the first place? So he didn’t even enter that way.”
“Okay.”
It is truly ironic that the invasion of demons was avoided because there were no temples and priests.
“If that’s all true, then Goldias is definitely safe.”
“Okay. It will be safe. Instead, finding food will be tricky.”
This is a country where food is scarce because the temperature is always close to freezing regardless of the season.
However, it is said that they invade neighboring territories and stab people every day, so of course they must be controlling the food supply.
Basically, a soldier will fight several times better if his stomach is full than if he is provided with good weapons.
“You can’t rob strict people, so it’s Jetua’s decision.”
“If the risks are similar, it is right to choose the one that is a little closer.”
Although I was the one who made the final decision, the other people gathered in the tent also nodded in agreement.
“Oh, speaking of which, how is the food situation?”
“If you eat sparingly, you can last ten days.”
“That won’t work.”
We’re not really in need of money, so what’s the point of saving food?
Of course, depending on the situation in Jetua Kingdom, where we depart tomorrow, a situation may arise where we need to save money, but in my personal opinion, I believe that the probability of that happening is extremely low.
“Even if it’s a bit of a stretch, let’s set up camp near the city tomorrow. May?”
“Yes. Near the city, I confirmed.”
The guy pricked up his black ears and moved to a corner and started looking at the map.
“We’re leaving early in the morning, so let’s disperse.”
Rita and Melbourne got up first and started organizing my tent, which was used as a meeting place, and as a signal, they got up one by one and left the tent.
‘I feel more at ease here than in a place that is needlessly large.’
Needless to say, the prefabricated mansion prepared by Giselle and the wizards was very wonderful. However, I thought it would be too inefficient for only a few women to use the large building, so I gave it to the wizard and the rest of the group that followed me.
It’s already a forced march, so if you rest comfortably, you’ll be less dissatisfied.
Well, wizards are willing to jump into fire as long as they have a mimic case.
In any case, the prefabricated houses were used once every three days in three shifts, and the satisfaction level of the knights and the children who were former knights and current servants was very high.
“Do you need anything else?”
“Uh, it’s okay. “You must be tired in Melbourne too, so go and rest.”
“Yes. Well then, see you tomorrow.”
[Rest in peace. ]
Melbourne and Rita exit the tent.
“Is it your turn today?”
“Why are you dissatisfied?”
“No way.”
As she took off her robe, hung it on her chair, and sat down on the bed, Genoa, who was left alone, turned the light on the magic lantern that had been hung on the stand to its lowest setting and came towards me.
“It’s so soft.”
“Kick, tickle.”
I laid down with Genoa on the bed, which wasn’t very soft but was good enough for the two of us to lie down on.
“… “I never thought the day would come when I would actually find horns uncomfortable.”
“Are you uncomfortable with the horns that are the pride and pride of the Minotaur people? “Should I tell you everything when I meet the chief?”
“What.”
“Kitchen.”
It was a thought that occurred to me recently, but before I knew it, my side had become their public property.
**
Wow ──!!
Last night, it seemed like it would stop for a bit.
“One group, check your surroundings again to make sure you haven’t missed anything, and the rest unpack.”
In the rain that was falling so hard that he couldn’t see an inch in front of him, Melbourne skillfully led his team with only one hand and quickly set up a camp.
“Because it rains a lot, there is this disadvantage.”
“Unlike snow, footprints on the soft dirt floor are not easily erased.”
I was just muttering to myself, but I turned my head when I heard Mariel’s voice coming from behind.
“Little Master, I think you like fruit wine a little more.”
“Because the current beer is too bland. “It doesn’t have a refreshing feel, but if it’s equally refreshing, it’s better to have a strong taste.”
After all the cheating was eventually revealed by the big Mari El, the smaller one, that is, she who was now in control, no longer held her weight.
“Liri, Lulu!”
“”Yes!!””
As soon as I called their names, the twins came running in front of me through the rain.
“Are you ready?”
“Yes! “We practiced a lot by ourselves before going to bed yesterday!”
“Okay, you can do it well…” …”
“Don’t be too nervous. “It doesn’t matter if you make a mistake in the first place.”
The reason I called the twins was to go to a city a couple of hours away from here to get food.
It is said that they have joined hands with the demons and that many demons are freely roaming the city like adventurers, so it would be much less suspicious for the demon twins to purchase goods rather than a complete outsider.
For your information, the reason I go along with the simple task of procuring food is to serve as bait in an unexpected situation.
“Rita.”
[ Yes. Master. ]
Unlike her noisy twin, Rita didn’t make a single sound as she emerged from the rain like a mirage.
“What about May?”
“I have one too!”
May poked her head out from under Rita’s raincoat and made her presence known.
“Good. Then let’s go. “Master?”
“I just happened to want some snacks.”
She slightly opened her raincoat and took me in her arms, and Rita also held her twins on either side of her.
“Let’s hurry up a bit. “You have to come back before midnight so you’ll be less tired tomorrow.”
We quietly left the camp, with Rita holding May in the lead.
**
Tu-tu-tuk, tu-tu-tuk!!
Thick raindrops fell hard under the raincoat.
“… “I heard that the day I go is market day.”
“Looking at it like that, it would be difficult to find food even if we went in.”
“That’s what I’m saying.”
It really didn’t take long to get from the campground to the city.
However, when we arrived in front of the city, we had to stand in the heavy rain without crossing the tightly closed walls.
-Search thoroughly!!
-You can consider all bitches who do not cooperate as accomplices!!
-Check regularly to make sure there is no interruption in communication! If you miss it, we’re all dead!!
That was the reason for the sharp voices coming from beyond the outer walls.
When Melbourne talked about the second princess last night, I just thought it was something and moved on.
‘Fuck, how can Adari fit like this?’
To be exact, it seemed like a tip had come in that it was not the princess she wanted, but the priest she had been hiding.
Toouk.
“How is it?”
[ Buying things seemed impossible. ]
After looking inside, Rita’s answer made me sigh.
“Wouldn’t it be solved if we just catch the priest in question and hand him over?”
“… Yes?”
“That’s right. “They’re making such a fuss right now to find that priest who’s been hiding like a rat, so if you hand over what you’re looking for, everything will be resolved, right?”
“And.”
Even if you are small, is a teacher still a teacher?
In any case, we have to fight with the clergy in the end.
Unless you had no intention of seeing blood, it was an option with no reason to worry about it.
“Let’s do it now.”
“Puh, it’s nice to be cool.”
“Oh, before that, let’s go inside. “Standing in the rain is a bit much.”
It’s okay for me, but the twins, especially May, didn’t feel good about being in the rain for a long time, so we jumped over the castle wall and entered the city to find a place to get out of the rain, like a back alley or something else.
“Hehe, I guess I’ll live a little longer now.”
The place where we settled down was the stables of a quiet inn with no customers.
“But little master. “I’m all for catching them, but is there a way to find them?”
“Disciple. “I don’t know anything else, but a divine being can never run away from me.”
“Ah.”
Such a bastard.
There is something else to forget, but forgetting something so important for a moment.
“Puh, it’s okay, don’t worry about it.”
She smiled mischievously and headed towards her pile of hay.
“Master?”
“It certainly seems like a lot of time has passed.”
Phew!
Suddenly he thrust his insides into her haystack.
“Ugh, so cool… !!”
“You’re throwing away your dignity because you’re afraid of your life. If it had been in the past, you would have been accused of heresy.”
From there, a shabby-looking woman wearing a shabby robe was pulled out by Mariel.
‘… ?’
What. Something about this feels very familiar.
Common brown hair and freckles around his nose.
It was clearly the appearance of a woman I could not remember.
Still, why do I keep feeling familiar?
“… For a moment.”
“Why?”
“I need to check something.”
“Keheuk, kek!!”
The woman holding her hand struggled even harder, as if her breathing was getting tighter.
Of course, I was none of her business, so I walked up to the woman and stuck my hand inside her robe.
And the moment you move away from everything that gets in your way and grab the fruit hidden within.
“… !!”
This heavy feeling.
The incredibly soft texture and the elasticity that digs into her fingers as if she were swallowing them every time she kneads them.
A priest who is shorter than Siran but has larger breasts than Amela.
“Uh, Master?”
“Why.”
I said, clearly feeling the texture of the fruit filling my hands.
“… “It seems like someone I know.”
