The Otherworld Conquest Method of a Reincarnated Porter Chapter 96 Part 1

Goal

「Sei the Porter, I hereby banish you from my party, the Jet-Black Sword.」

What, I’m banished?! Damn, I knew that all along. That as a Porter, I would be a liability on the front lines of battle. But until this day, when I dived into the labyrinth of Rotos, I had learned the art of medicine manufacturing, polished my combat skills, and believed that I would not be inferior to any other adventurer. However, is it not enough? With me being a Porter. Can’t I reach it? The heights of a bronze-rank adventurer───

◇ ◇ ◇

　Chirp, chirp, chirp.

「Anyaa, nyaa, nyaa, Sei-nyan, it feels so good. Anyanyanyanya~」

At the same time as Niinya reaches climax, I release my second cum into her vagina. It has been a week since I returned to Magt from Astoma in Lambert’s territory, but with no drive to do any adventurer or porter works, I have spent most of the day at the inn.

Getting into mid-October, the weather is starting to get a little chilly. Soaking in the pleasure and satisfaction after ejaculating, I lay down on the bed with Niinya in my arms, stroking her. I don’t feel like doing anything today either. I guess I will just doze off until noon.

「Sei-nyan, don’t worry. I will protect you when I get my Job. Until then, you can just take it easy.」

I have not told her that I had gone and let Mireia die at Astoma, but Niinya, sensing from my attitude that something had happened, is concerned about me. For me to get comforted by a girl who is only twelve years old, I can’t help but despise the fact that I am mentally immature. I hold Niinya in the bed and stroke her head. Not only her hair, but the fur all over her whole body is soft and pleasant to the touch. Niinya truly is so pleasant to hold.

As I casually take a look at the back of Niinya’s hand, I notice that there is a scar on her knuckles. For the past few days, Niinya has been getting a wound on the same spot, and I have been healing it with my healing magic over and over again. She told me that injuries are common in fights between beastfolks, but after the case with Mireia, I can’t help but worry that the fight would escalate and turn into a battle to the death.

「Niinya, show me your hands.」

I activate my healing magic and completely heal Niinya’s healing injuries. With this, everything is good.

「Sei-nyan. It’s warm. Thank you.」

「Keep the fighting in moderation, okay? Don’t make me worry too much.」

「Don’t worry. I may look like this, but I’m on the stronger sides among the beastfolks. Besides, I’m a fast runner, so if things get dangerous, I’ll run away immediately. Be at ease.」

I believe your ability to run away is more important than your ability to fight. There is no need to fight an opponent you can’t beat. There are also some monsters, like the Crimson Bear, that can run at terrifying speeds, so you can never be overconfident.

「I have plans, so I’m going out. You should just take it easy, Sei-nyan.」

Niinya has been going out somewhere a lot these past few days. I worry that she is doing something dangerous, but I don’t want to be that overprotective or meddle with her private life too much.

「That’s right, Niinya, I have something nice for you.」

From my storage, I take out the magic gauntlet I found in the hidden room of the puppet labyrinth. I will probably never use it, and it probably has enough defensive power to protect Niinya’s fist in a fight. According to Ziquis, the magic blacksmith, it even has a little offensive power.

「Wanya, are you sure about it? But I can’t accept such incredible-looking gauntlet.」

「It’s fine. It’s something I have no use for, after all. Besides, we’ll form a party together, no? I’ll be sad if you get hurt before then, Niinya.」

「Ugh, this is my first time receiving a gift. It makes me so happy. I’ll treasure it forever. Thank you, Sei-nyan.」

Niinya is so happy that she is half crying as she puts on the gauntlet on her hand.

「Unya?!」

At that moment, the slightly large gauntlet emits a faint light and transforms to the perfect size for Niinya’s fist. As Ziquis had said, a labyrinth-born protective item seems to transform to the size of the person who equips it for the first time.

「That’s a magic gauntlet I found in the labyrinth. It has simply transformed to the size of your fist, Niinya, the first person to equip it.」

「For you to give me such a precious thing. Ugh, Sei-nyan, thank you so much.」

Niinya leaves the room while rubbing her cheek against the gauntlet. The moment I am left alone in the room, I am immediately assailed with loneliness. In the past, it would have been only natural for me to be alone, but after living together with Mireia, I will feel ill at ease whenever I am alone. What to do in such a situation? These past few days, I have been spending my time drinking since the morning.

When I go to the tavern on the first floor, all the other customers have finished breakfast and left, and I seem to be the only one there. I sit down at the counter.

「Old man, give me some wine.」

「…..」

The man behind the counter puts a glass of wine in front of me in silence. I chug it down and empty the wooden glass in one go. I am by no means fond of drinking or a strong drinker, but it seems that the more I drink, the stronger I become. I thought drowning in alcohol would allow me to forget about Mireia, but instead I am reminded of her and end up becoming sentimental.

「Damn it, damn it. Old man, one more glass.」

「Give it a break, will you?」

At that moment, I hear a woman’s voice coming from behind me. This voice, it must be Soara. I guess I will have some fun with Soara until Niinya comes back.

I get up from my seat, approach Soara, and run my hands over her large, shapely ass. She is a nice woman who arouses men’s lust not only with her chest, but also her ass.

「Stop, please don’t touch me.」

Soara violently flicks my hand away from her and looks at me with cold eyes. She appears to be somewhat angry, but I am sure she will shut up if I push her down on the bed.

「What the hell, let me do it. You said you wouldn’t even mind bearing my children, didn’t you?」

「Hmph, if it were the you from back then, then sure. But the current you don’t even go on any adventures, doing nothing but drink and wander around aimlessly, no? I suppose I was greatly mistaken about you. Don’t you ever touch me again.」

「What a thing to say when you don’t even know how I’m feeling.」

「How could I even know how you’re feeling? I don’t know what happened to you on your journey, but if you aren’t prepared to get hurt, you shouldn’t have become an adventurer in the first place.」

What Soara says is right. Adventurers dying is an everyday occurrence, so if you are sad about every single death, you won’t be able to go on with your life. However, thus far, I had always thought that the death of adventurers was someone else’s problem. I never thought that Mireia would….

「Together with this kind of a man, I’m sure Niinya will lead nothing but an unhappy life. You see, saying that she wants to help you in your adventures, Niinya has been going into the labyrinth to train, but since all you do is drink since the morning, I guess all of it will be for naught.」

「What, the labyrinth, you say?! Niinya is Jobless, you know? You didn’t stop her?」

「The person in question says she is doing it with full awareness of the risk, so there’s nothing I can do to stop her, is there? Unlike a certain someone, Niinya is prepared for it, after all.」

I see, the reason for the scars on Niinya’s knuckles over the past few days is not because she is getting into a fight, but because she has been diving into the labyrinth and fighting monsters. She must have been fighting with her bare hands, without a job and without proper equipment, talk about reckless. I too had dived in the labyrinth when I was twelve years old, but I was well equipped and surrounded by escort knights.

I guess Niinya and I are on a completely different level in our resolve to dive into the labyrinth, as expected. Damn it, I am in no place to talk big to her, like telling her to stop because it is dangerous.
