Bjorn Yandel the Barbarian

Episode 115 Reunion (3)

Afternoon of the 9th day.

「You have entered the 3rd floor Pilgrim’s Path.」

After searching around the northernmost part of the Land of the Dead for over a day, we found a portal and reached the 3rd floor.

‘…Next time, I shouldn’t come in without a searcher.’

We judged that the two of us could reach the 3rd floor by taking the route to the Land of the Dead, but…….

But the absence of a searcher played a big role.

If he hadn’t secretly followed a group of explorers who happened to be passing by, he would still be wandering around.

“Eh, I feel bad whenever I come here.”

Anyway, after such hardships, we arrived at the jet-black estuary.

This is the starting point when taking the Land of the Dead route, and it is a field characterized by shallow ditches that flow in dozens of directions.

Oh, by the way, the smell of the gutter is a bonus.

“Then go.”

Since there was no searcher, we continued to look at the compass and move in the ‘northeast’ direction.

As I was doing that, I quickly reached a dead end.

In other words, now I have to dip my feet in that black river and cross it.

“…can’t you carry it?’

Tsk, just to go somewhere comfortably.

“…only this time.”

“Wow! really? Thank you!”

I carry Misha on my shoulder and cross the river.

The width is about 5m and the water is just below the knee.

Carefully crossing the river so as not to fall, the wet ground continues forward like a road

. .

_

_

_

_ A level 8 monster.

For reference, it uses something like a harpoon as a weapon.

It may look funny because of its small size, but because it is an object with high agility, there are many explorers who get caught off guard and go to the goal in an instant.

The skill is also a bit annoying.

‘… plaguy.’

These guys aren’t compatible with me.

My mace has the power to even blow off Deathfind’s head in one shot, but… if I

can’t hit it, it’s

meaningless .

A Frogman who leaps and easily dodges my mace. I

immediately dashed and hit him with his shield, but it didn’t mean anything.

“The attack was missed by [Rotten Slime].”

The shield touched his body, but there was a dull sound Instead, a Frogman that slides as if sliding.

[Gel-Gel!]

Is it fun?

Nimiral.

These guys have absolute evasion correction only for blunt weapons, so they were tricky enemies for me regardless of their rank.

Well, there was no problem with Misha.

” ! Step out of the way!” Misha

, who laughed at me being fooled by the Frogman ,

took out his sword and started a sword dance

.

It’s because it’s a freezing test.

[Geack?!]

Not enough cuts on the thighs, so the lower body

freezes. Plump.

The frog kid, who had been running around, collapsed on the floor.

“Wait a minute, Misha!”

“Huh?”

“I’ll do it.

” -!

After that, it seems like the stress is relieved.

Originally, catching monsters with magic was the norm, but the level difference was so great that the battle wasn’t too difficult.

[ Ger-Gel!]

[Gerruk!

[22 : 57]

I checked the time and started looking for a place to camp. Fatigue is exhaustion, but this is a place where you are forced to take a break at a

set time

.

Don’t get kicked.”

After exploring the surroundings for about 30 minutes, a resting point appeared. Unlike the dingy estuary, it was a muddy mound that was not soggy and reddish. It seems that all nearby explorers have already gathered, about 30 people have already arrived at the point

. ‘I came late , so

all the good places inside were taken away.’

Reluctantly, I settled down by the water’s edge, where the smell of the gutter was direct. The soil wasn’t damp, so the water wouldn’t fill up until here. I dried my wet legs first before laying down a blanket, and the river level began to rise quickly

.

[00 : 00]

Okay, it’s midnight now, so it won’t get any hotter here. Since this condition will last for the next 6 hours, I put Misha to bed first. There were a lot of people around, so there were a lot of people around, and there were several teams taking a break without setting a watch, but

… ” I met Hans a few days ago

, so

let’s be careful.”

It was the time when I was rummaging through my backpack to fill my stomach while

snacking on snacks. Cheer up my friend! Was there a tree that couldn’t be felled by taking ten shots?”

“But… you know, she—”

“They’re all sleeping, so be quiet?”

“Ahaha! sorry! I’ll be careful from now on!”

A familiar voice came from afar.

And was it before she went to sleep?

Misha, who had been rolling in a blanket, jumped up and stood up. “Is this Hikuro’s

voice …?”

I don’t think I heard it wrong…….

How can there be all these coincidences?

***

It’s not common to meet someone you know in a labyrinth.

First of all, each floor is incredibly wide, and even if the light is turned on because of the darkness inside the labyrinth It’s because the visibility distance is less than 10m.

Well, it’s a ‘clan’ that is divided into several parties and goes upstairs by meeting in such a way as to gather from what floor to what time, but

… It’s a line.’

Surprisingly, the dwarf was the owner of the voice, and

Dwalki and Rotmiller were next to him.

“Hikurod? Hikuro is right?”

“…Misha? Bjorn? what! Why are you guys here!”

“Wow, it’s clear that our team is connected by fate!”

What is the probability of going in separately without any promises and meeting again by chance?

“What about the request? Didn’t you say you were making a request? How do we do that?”

The dwarf questioned the moment before we both admired the amazing coincidence.

Well, it must have felt something strange. We were

the ones who entered the labyrinth separately to request an escort

.

Oh, if that’s the case, I’ve already finished it.”

“You finished it?”

“I had business on the first floor. As the labyrinth closed, the client went back to the city first.”

“Oh, that’s right?”

The dwarf nodded without a doubt whether it was an acceptable reason.

Now it was our turn to ask the question.

“Then why are you here? ? Didn’t I say it would only be on the 2nd floor?”

As far as I know, the three of them were supposed to do a simple collection request in the rocky desert.

But why did the 3rd floor come to the jet-black estuary connected to the land of the dead?

“Ah, that’s it. It’s because the stone golem’s inner core came out earlier than expected. I’m here to take on one more request, just in case.”

But if you had assumed the third floor from the beginning, I think you should have told me in advance…

“Hahaha! If I did, I wouldn’t have stopped you from doing it!”

Well, that’s right.

The combination of 1 tanker, 1 mage, and 1 searcher is a little unstable.

“…So what kind of request is it?”

“It’s a collection request again. All you have to do is get two eyes from the Frogman Shaman. Would you like to meet me here?”

“How much is the completion fee?”

“It’s 2 million stones. Of course, if you guys join, the money will be divided into 5 equal parts.”

400,000 stones per person is not bad. If you sell other by-products

other than eyeballs, your income will increase.

There remains the question of whether or not we can break the ……..

well, it’s all down to luck.

“Yes.”

After meeting Hans, I agreed because I was nervous about traveling alone. If the request ends early, maybe we can propose to go to the 4th floor

together

. If you talk more here, you’ll get hit with a knife.” There

were glares between the other teams who were taking a break,

so I stopped talking and went to rest.

This is an advantage of having a large number of people.

Nighttime is shorter and more time to sleep. After

[06: 00],

time passed and as the morning of the 10th day dawned, the depth of the river went down and we also left the resting point.

Then we went around He went on a hunt and devoted himself to hunting.

‘There must be at least one seeker.

I feel it again, but the explorer was a position that improved the quality of life in the labyrinth.

“If you go that way, there is a river

,

so come here. ” ” Hmm, it’s going to be

a bummer again……”

Within four hours, we killed another shaman, and we ate our appetites.

The corpse disappeared without leaving anything behind

. The downside is that

if ‘Distortion’ magic is used on a monster, there is an extremely low probability that the corpse of the monster can be acquired intact……. but

since essence and magic stones do not drop.

It’s daunting.’

There are more things that require by-products of monsters as you go to the latter half,

such as equipment or

consumable production

. .Let’s think about that at that time. If you have money, you can supply it by entrusting it to the exchange or a request.’

Anyway, the combat has become easier as much as the movement has become easier.

Rotmiller’s arrow, Dwalki’s magic,

and Misha’s ice

blade .

While watching, Rotmiller expressed his doubts, but this was not a problem either.

[Frozen condensation] or [Ice crushing] are not skills that stand out that much.

“Oh, that? The number of souls has evolved this time!”

Misha, who answered naturally as I told her in advance.

“Hot, is that really true? At this rate, I can be promoted to 6th grade?”

“Miss Misha! Congratulations!”

Everyone knew that Misha had signed a contract with an ice-type soul tree,

so no one doubted it

. I mean stabbed.’

But what can I do?

I have to accept it. It’s

my fate as a person who lives as an evil spirit.

“It looks like the Rotmiller’s water is rising… Are you okay?”

“The safe zone is right next to you, so don’t worry.

” The water rose, but thanks to Rotmiller, who memorized all the nearby terrain ,

we filled up the time to hunt until the end, and then moved to camp

. Right now?”

“I think that’s how it is.”

As soon as we resumed the exploration, we hunted the shaman

we encountered.

It seems that we are lucky on our journey because

we have sheep !” From my point of view, this is not because of Misha, but because of that friend, Bjorn. That friend gets lucky?”

Dwalki and the dwarf’s plan, anyway.

In just two days, I got the shaman’s corpse.

Hmm, is it a bit too much to say I’ve got it yet?

“Umm, but what should I do with this?

” . I’ll use magic first.”

First, Dwalki used ‘preservation’ magic to prevent the corpse from decomposing.

But that was the end.

It’s impossible to put the whole corpse in a bag.

“Misha, you use a knife, so you’re good at things like this . Will you?”

“What are you talking about, you dwarf! I’ve never done anything like this before! Rather, what should you do? I heard you requested a stone golem?”

“That’s… the stone golem was just a matter of taking out the inner core…”

Even if all the other by-products were discarded and only the eyeballs were dug out, dismantling work would be necessary.

And All were inexperienced in this kind of work,

except for Rottmiller, the all-rounder

. I’ll do it.”

Soon after, Rotmiller sighed and skillfully dismembered the shaman’s corpse with a carving knife.

Did you do this often when you were on the ‘Collection Team’ before?

“As expected, Rotmiller, you’re the best!”

“Oh, I feel the same way… Ugh, I’ll be looking somewhere else for a while…” I

wonder if it’s been 30 minutes?

“Then what do we do now?”

The

3rd floor pilgrim’s road is closed after the 15th car. In other words, there are still three days left.

I said as if I had waited.

“The request is over, go to the 4th floor How about going?”

“Um, sure… It’s a pity to finish on the 3rd floor when the whole team has gathered after a long time…”

“Rottmiller, what do you think? Do you think we can get to the 4th floor in a short time?”

Rotmiller closed his eyes as if he needed time.

Well, to get to the portal in the center of the Witch’s Forest through several areas within three days, he must have a lot of thoughts

. I think it’s possible.” It

was a bit strange.

Originally, the plan was to break the rift, catch monsters, and return to the city.

‘As expected, it never goes as planned.’

Somehow, I ended up going to the 4th floor.

***

The three-day journey that followed was harder than I thought.

First of all, the time I slept was drastically reduced, and I invested the entire remaining time only in moving.

Even moving was at the alert level… As the days passed, the faces of my comrades grew tired,

but I was still able to achieve my goal.

“The character has entered a special area”

”

Field effect – The witch’s forest is granted.

” The Witch’s Forest.

When I first came here, Misha and I went through all sorts of hardships, but

there was nothing to be afraid of as long as Rotmiller was

there .

Connecting each other’s bodies with ropes, they quickly run through the witch’s forest.

And how long has it passed?

[20:31]

A little over three hours remain until the third floor is closed

.

Standing in front of a huge tower located in the center of the forest of “A colorful portal located in front of a huge door that looks like the entrance of the tower.

“Let’s go in now!”

It was the moment we waited for the color to change in preparation for an accident and entered at the same time.

“Oh mister?!”

From afar A faintly familiar voice was heard.
