The Otherworld Conquest Method of a Reincarnated Porter Chapter 77 Part 1

Aisha and Karen’s Ability

　Chirp, chirp, chirp.

*Jiggle, jiggle* The breasts of the woman shaking her hips on top of me sway. She is a woman I paid for yesterday whose name I don’t even know, but I can’t help but find the wrinkles on her face and the sagging of her breasts, which are appropriate for her age, lovely. When she was young, she must have been quite the beauty with a nice figure. She told me that her husband was old, but I wonder if she had been bought off by him or something.

「Ahn, haan, aahn, ahn, haan, aaaaaaah~」

From the way she shakes her hips, I don’t think she is an amateur. As the woman climaxes, I ejaculate into her vagina for the second time and end it there. Any more would probably be too much for her.

I put the woman, who is breathing heavily, on the bed and get ready to go. Today is the first day of my contract with Aisha and Karen. I don’t know what they usually eat, so I buy a little more bread, fruit, and dried meat than usual. I arrive at the front of the labyrinth, but it looks like they haven’t arrived yet. After waiting for about five minutes, they came.

「My bad. Did we make you, the client, wait?」

「No problem. I also have just arrived.」

「Fufufu, look what we have here, so you know how to treat a woman.」

「…..」

Aisha is talkative, but Karen is unsociable. As expected, she seems to hate the idea of Aisha spending the night with me. That was a mistake, I guess. It’s not like I really want to sleep with Aisha or anything, after all.

Both Aisha and Karen are clad in light equipment and carrying sledgehammers on their shoulders. They are slightly dull reddish-bronze in color. Those seem to be sledgehammers made of red iron, although the purity seems low.

「So, what are we going to do? What stratum are we heading to?」

「Third stratum. I’ve already completed the map up to the second stratum, after all.」

I show her the map as I talk to her.

「You’re really making a map? But why?」

「I told you, didn’t I? That it’s my hobby. I like to explore the labyrinth, you see.」

「Then, is it also true that you beat some puppets?」

「But of course, duh. Huh, don’t tell me, did you think I was lying?」

「Well, I’m about half-convinced, I guess. After all, the porters in this town usually hide behind the adventurers and do nothing but carry the baggage, after all.」

「Well, considering the puppet’s attack power, that’s an obvious choice, I guess.」

Aisha talks a lot, but Karen doesn’t talk at all. Well, as long as she does her job properly, that is good enough, though.

「All right, let’s get going then.」

The three of us stand in the line heading into the labyrinth. I pay the guards for the three of us and step into the labyrinth. The entrance is crowded as usual.

「Wow, you paid for three of us, huh?」

「Yeah, you’re going into the labyrinth at my request, so it’s only natural, no?」

「That’s true, but it wasn’t written in the contract, no?」

Come to think of it, she is right. However, I believe it was written that I am responsible for all expenses related to the labyrinth exploration, so there is no problem. Either way, not only is it not that big of a sum, it puts Aisha in a good mood, so let’s take it as a fine play on my part. But in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, I guess we should write in the contract who is responsible for the entrance fee.

「Well, the entrance fee to the labyrinth was established only recently, so the slave merchant probably didn’t know that. The viscount’s term of office is also coming up, so he’s trying to suck our money off in every way he can, but I hope he’ll give us a break.」

Apparently, there are various circumstances surrounding Viscount Melnard. I am also curious about the fact that he imposes a city entry tax on adventurers. Let’s ask them about those circumstances after we deepen our relationships a little more.

We enter the labyrinth and head to the third stratum, where I make a map as we make our way through it. There are few monsters, especially around the stairs, so we proceed deeper as we chat.

「Have you two ever tried to look for the way to the eleventh stratum?」

「We have, of course. After all, it is a job worth a hundred large gold coins. The tenth stratum has been dug up all over the place, and is full of holes, you know? Well, they will immediately be closed, though.」

I see, but there is no guarantee that the way to the eleventh stratum is on the tenth, you know?  At any rate, for now, I have to concentrate on mapping this labyrinth.

After walking for a while, I spot four small fist onis.

「This is a good opportunity. Let me show you my prowess.」

Putting the map into my storage, I take out my sword, channel some magical energy into it, and then use instant step to get close to them, where I launch a thrust at the neck of the first one and cut off the neck of the second one. Temporarily distancing myself with a backstep, I then close the distance with them again with instant step and send the heads of the remaining two flying.

The ranks of the small fist onis on this stratum range from 2 to 6. They are no match for the current me. I take out the magic stone, put away my sword, and take out the map.

「I see, I’m now convinced by your claim of having beat some puppets. If it’s swordsmanship, you’re better than me. Moreover, your sword is a mithril one, no? Talk about enviable. But you’re planning to complete the map, right? If you want to go to the deeper stratums, I recommend getting yourself a sledgehammer.」

「Ah, about that, I’ve already ordered one.」

「Ordered? Not a ready-made one, but a custom-made one? Looks like our client here is a very loaded man. What do you say? Care to take me, Karen, and one more person?」

「Big sis Aisha!」

「I’m just kidding, hahaha.」

Aisha has a frank personality and is easy to get along with. This is the first time I have heard Karen’s voice today, you know? I hope she could lower her vigilance a little more, though.

「There are a lot of adventurers on the third stratum, too, huh. Is it also the same on the lower stratums?」

「No, the number of adventurers starts to decrease around the sixth stratum. It takes time to get there and back, after all.」

「Are there adventurers who stay overnight to explore the labyrinth?」

「Yeah, adventurers who aim to subjugate the stratum lord and curious ones who look for the way to the eleventh stratum do.」

「Do you two have any problem with staying overnight in the labyrinth?」

「Umm~, well…」

「…..」

Both Aisha and Karen don’t seem to like the idea. They have kids, after all. But in order to make a map, I think there will be a need to stay in the labyrinth. I have to make them prepare themselves for that. After all, including the commission, I am paying more than one small gold coin per exploration. I won’t hold myself back on that.

As we proceed with our exploration, we finally encounter a puppet around noon. There are also five small fist onis.

「I’ll take care of the small fist onis first. It’d be hard to fight them with a sledgehammer, after all. Once I’m done, I’ll leave the puppet to you. I won’t take part in the battle. Attacking the puppet with a one-handed sword puts a little too much burden on my body, after all.」

「Understood.」

I channel magical energy into my sword and spend some time sending the heads of the small fist onis flying one by one. If I act cool here and end up suffering an attack from the puppet, I wouldn’t be able to stand it. Once I defeat all of the little fist onis, Aisha and Karen step forward. Channeling magical energy into their sledgehammers, they approach the puppet from both sides with instant step and launch an attack at its right and left legs respectively. *Bam, bam* Making a dull sound echo through the labyrinth, they break the puppet’s legs. Aisha destroys one leg with a single blow, and although Karen is unable to destroy the other leg, there is a large crack in it, and the puppet falls to its knees and is unable to stand up.

The two are used to this, and they temporarily distance themselves from the puppet, watching out for its attacks. As expected, even if it loses its legs, as long as it still has its arms that can unleash powerful attacks, the threat of the puppet remains the same. When Aisha and Karen destroy the arms, the puppet simply lies on the ground, helpless.

「Sei, do you want to finish it off?」

「No, go ahead and do it yourself.」

「Are you sure? You want the experience points, don’t you?」

「Well, it’s only rank 12, after all. Just do it.」

「Heh~.」

Aisha destroys the head and takes out the magic stone. I put the magic stone and the puppet into my storage.

「It looks like your storage capacity being 32 is also true, huh. Just who in the world are you? We already have kids, but seriously, I wonder if you’ll be kind enough to take us?」

「…..」

Karen glares at me with scary eyes. No, I didn’t say anything, okay? She is by no means a peak beauty, but Karen has a well-featured face, and is a pretty good-looking woman. It is a little tough to get a cold stare from her.
