Bjorn Yandel the Barbarian

Episode 43 The Wizard and the Barbarian (3)

“Oh! Bjorn, son of Yandel!”

As soon as I left the magic tower, the place I headed was the barbarians-only accommodation.

But is it two months later?

More than half of the familiar faces had disappeared, and new barbarians were filling the void.

I heard that it is an unspoken tradition to leave this place as soon as money is earned…

‘Perhaps many of the invisible ones have died this time.’

Since he was born as a barbarian, this may be his fate.

Unlike the fairies who were constantly pulling them from above, once they came out to the city, it was the way of the barbarians to do it alone somehow.

“Is Einar inside?”

“Einar left for the Holy Land as soon as morning came!”

I thought it would be like that for some reason.

I came out of the labyrinth and didn’t show my face for two days, so I came right away, but in the end, I guess it was a waste of time.

“Oh, did you hear the news?”

“What about that news?”

“The Barbarian of freedom! Didn’t you know that the whole city is in an uproar because of him?”

Instinctively, my body flinched.

“…I had no idea. Do you even know the name?”

“Well? I don’t know! Oddly enough, that was not known at all!”

But fortunately, it seems that the guild also made my name anonymous.

“Anyway, I’m just proud to have such a person out of my own people! Isn’t it amazing that he single-handedly defeated hundreds of people and confidently cleared himself of the guild’s false accusations?”

“…Knocked out hundreds of people?”

I swear it never happened.

All I did was grab the daughter of the district chief and whine.

But the rumors have already spread like this?

I’m already worried about the future, but

……. Guild guys aren’t stupid.’

“I’ll be back tomorrow morning, so will you tell me when Einar comes back?”

“I will!”

Soon I turned around and headed for the inn where I was staying.

But what kind of situation is this?

“Hey, you…! Weren’t you dead?”

As soon as he saw me, the inn owner freaked out as if he had seen a ghost.

It wasn’t even a bad analogy.

It was because I was able to hear the confession that I left the room thinking I was dead without having to probe deeply.

“What did you do with my luggage inside?”

“I’ve cleaned it all up…….”

“You must have paid for it three days in advance, right?”

The innkeeper’s face began to turn white as the voice became irritated without even realizing it.

‘I can’t beat this—’

No, wait.

Since when did I start thinking like this?

My body flinched at the belated feeling of incongruity.

‘…Maybe it was from the first day.’

Actually, looking back, everything was a little strange.

As soon as I opened my eyes, my mind was calm even though a person’s head had been blown off.

It was the same when he committed his first murder in the labyrinth.

I thought it was something I had to do, but the process was so easy.

It wasn’t even a gradual change.

From the day I woke up in this body, I was radical and simple ignorant like the barbarians.

‘That’ll be the same if you look at it today.’

jailbreaking?

Of course, I came to the same conclusion after thinking about it, but there was no hesitation to the extent of being strange.

It was in the same context that he had an argument with an old man in the Mage Tower.

Are you angry because you heard something you don’t want to hear?

Lee Han-soo, a 29-year-old office worker, would never have done such a thing.

He wasn’t timid, but he wasn’t arrogant either. He was the kind of person who had a lot of doubts, so he observed everything for a long time and put it into practice.

‘But what about now?’

Until now, it was considered only a change that occurred in a special environment.

But the feeling of incongruity is growing.

‘Are you sure.’

Soon I was convinced.

As if the instincts engraved in this ignorant body spontaneously spring out every time they engage in battle.

My psyche has also changed.

No, rather than change, it would be more correct to call it harmony.

“So why don’t you say you’re sorry! Please stop staring at me!”

Having finished my thoughts, I sighed.

I have changed.

It’s strange that I’ve noticed it now, but it’s for sure.

But what do you mean?

‘If you want to survive here, it’s better this way.’

I decided to think of it as best I could.

Well, it’s a barbarian instinct. You’ll have to manage it a little more carefully in the future.

“…If you give me 30,000 stones, I’ll just skip it.”

Therefore, I was very offended by the innkeeper’s behavior, but I decided to end it with a suitable reward.

When it comes to missing luggage, the most expensive thing was the clothes I bought for 2500 stones…….

The biggest thing I wanted to do was to rest during the argument time.

“30,000 stones! I’ve sold a few junk things so far—”

“Didn’t you say you threw it away?”

“…….”

“If you’re not going to give it to me, tell me. I’ll tell everyone here what I’ve been through.”

“…wouldn’t it be better to let us use our inn for that amount?”

“hate.”

I have no intention of using an inn like this in the future.

Even if stealing the things of a dead explorer is like that, isn’t it moral to wait at least until the promised date?

“Please keep your promise not to tell anyone after that.”

“Of course.”

Afterwards, after earning 30,000 stones of extra income, I headed to the inn that I had been eyeing before.

The average meal cost per night was twice as expensive, but

it was worth it.

‘Looks like he’s living a little more now.’

First of all, the room was 1.5 times larger than before.

It had a window and even had a private bathtub in the bathroom.

It’s a bonus that it’s much closer to the dimension square.

After scrubbing my body for about an hour to wash off the filth accumulated in the labyrinth, I threw myself on the bed.

It was fluffy.

In fact, it makes me wonder if people live for this short-lived happiness.

But was that so?

Suddenly, starting from the labyrinth and returning to the city, the things I experienced unfolded in my head like a panorama.

“Sir.”

Why is it so hard to get a good rest?

***

As soon as the morning was bright, I went into any open clothing store and bought everyday clothes.

And headed to the barbarian-only accommodation.

“Bjorn!! Where did you disappear to!”

“Something happened. I’m sorry for worrying you.”

“Worry? What are you talking about! There’s no way you could do something like that! Even if Bjorn is thrown into hell, he will survive and come back!”

Yes, I am that kind of image to you.

Well, I also like this much better than the clumsy new wave drama.

Since it was a pre-ceremony for each other, we moved to a nearby restaurant.

“Oh, did you hear that?”

As soon as I sat down and ordered the menu, Einar started asking questions.

I wasn’t surprised this time because I expected it in my heart.

“Oh you mean the barbarian of freedom?”

“Huh? A barbarian of freedom? What the hell are you talking about?”

uh didn’t you ask that?

“…It’s nothing. So what were you trying to say?”

“ah!”

Returning to the original story, Einar bent down and lowered his voice.

“I heard this from the Elder… Someone stole the Noble Phantasm from the Creation!”

“The Noble Phantasm of Genesis?”

I was heartily excited.

Genesis Noble Phantasm means six treasures.

For reference, in the game, six races were divided into dwarves, barbarians, fairies, beasts, dragons, and humans.

And the problem is…

‘I can’t enter the last floor without it!’

The Treasure of Creation is a key item in [Dungeon and Stone].

Ending… To be honest, I don’t even know if there really is such a thing, but to open the ‘Abyss Door’, you have to collect all six Noble Phantasms.

But is that gone?

“Who the hell did such a big deal?”

“I don’t know about that. It’s just that it was stolen on the day we had our coming-of-age ceremony. The elder said that maybe other races might be in a similar situation.”

“…Right.”

It felt like someone hit me hard on the back of the head with a hammer, but I finished my meal without expressing much.

‘Sir, do I have to live here for the rest of my life?’

In a way, it was as if the most hopeful option had just disappeared.

But in the first place, it would take at least several years for the Noble Phantasm to become meaningful to me.

‘…It’s probably not something to think about since I haven’t even been to the third floor yet.’

In the end, what I have to do is still there.

To be strong enough to choose as many options as possible when the moment comes when you have to make a choice someday.

Besides, don’t you know?

If so, the thief who stole the Noble Phantasm will soon be caught.

“By the way, Einar, is today’s time okay?”

“It’s okay. I decided not to go to the Holy Land today.”

“Good.”

After a brief meal, I headed to the commercial district with Ainar.

“Is this Commelby! It’s the first time I’ve been here! There are so many people!”

Come Melby.

District 2 to District 5 surrounding the ecliptic Karnon in the form of a belt are called so.

Many people call it the free market.

As such, it is the most active commercial activity in the city. Lapdonia’s middle class lives here, and many artisans and shops are concentrated here.

This is the place where Erwen and I stopped by the other day.

‘By the way, is he going to be well?’

Erwen came to mind belatedly.

When I met her, she always came first to the inn I stayed at.

But now that I came out of the inn this time…

It’s been quite difficult to meet them again.

I couldn’t even remember the exact location of the fairy-only accommodation I’d been to before.

‘It’s not like you can’t find something if you’re looking for it…’

I wonder if that’s even necessary.

After all, as long as her sister is alive and well, there will be no reason to go into the labyrinth together.

‘If there’s a connection, we’ll meet again.’

To be honest, I’ve been through a lot lately, and my memories of Erwen have faded a lot.

It wasn’t even that deep a relationship in the first place.

“Oh! Look at Bjorn over there! People are eating clouds on skewers!”

what? Do you have cotton candy?

I was curious inside, so I bought one, tasted it, and passed it on to Einar’s mouth.

By the way, it was real cotton candy.

“I can’t believe it! Are all humans geniuses? To make food like this!”

“Stop admiring it and follow me.”

“Don’t leave them alone! You can’t go home alone!”

After that, I accelerated and arrived at my destination in no time.

A courtesy innocence shop that previously disposed of equipment.

I disposed of all the equipment that was the cause of being imprisoned, as well as my own equipment that had turned into scrap metal.

Selling price is about 800,000 stones. I haven’t

disposed of ‘that thing’ I got right

before coming out of the rift yet…

“Einar, here is yours.”

“Can I give you this much? Thanks to that, I even ate the essence…”

“Don’t be shy and accept it. Because it’s a fair price.”

For reference, the ratio is 8:2 as promised.

Still, among the fellow barbarians, he must have earned the most this time.

“I promised. If you follow me, I will make you a lot of money.”

“But 300,000 stones! Aren’t there too many! If this is the case, how many cloud snacks are there from

earlier!” It seems that cotton candy has been upgraded to another monetary unit of Einar. ”

Anyway, I’m getting hungry.”

Maybe it’s because ‘Appetite +9’ is attached to the essence of the corpse golem. ?The hunger cycle seems to come much sooner.

“Already? It hasn’t even been 3 hours yet!”

“So you’re not going?”

“Of course I’m going! I’ll buy you meat today!”

After quickly disposing of the equipment, we stopped at a nearby restaurant to have a meal.

And the car was about to leave again.

“Thank you, Bjorn.”

Einar said, staring straight

into my eyes. Although there was sauce on it, even one look in his eyes was serious, unlike usual.

When he does this, I feel more awkward for no reason.

“It’s okay. Like I said before—”

“I’m not talking about money.”

Huh? Then what are you talking about? “I just…

just wanted to say thank you for treating me normally like you used to

. ”

Einar’s expression was too serious for Ki,

so I watched her silently, and she struggled to open her mouth,

“That… As you know, my appearance hasn’t changed a bit. Others avoid me, perhaps because they don’t think I’m a warrior.”

“That’s—”

“Even these days, wherever I go, humans keep coming and flirting with me! It never happened before…!”

I thought it was a serious concern for her, who certainly has pride as a warrior.

To be honest, I don’t sympathize much, but that’s

probably because my nature is different from that of a barbarian.

Nar shouted in an exasperated voice,

“Bjorn! Be honest! Have I become that ugly?”

…What?

“I’ve made up my mind! Bjorn! I can’t enter the labyrinth with you from now on!”

No, wait.

Why is the conclusion like that?

***

I’m drinking a lukewarm beer.

Sitting alone on the first floor of the inn I’m staying at

.

How can beer be so tasteless?

I think I picked the wrong inn.

The food is pretty good, but the owner couldn’t pour the alcohol like

this .

At

the same time, the conversation with Einar during the day came to mind in my head.

After her bomb declaration, we continued a long conversation, but the result did not change.

“You are alone again.”

Einar left

. [ In

fact… Yesterday, I received an offer from the elder to become the successor.]

The elder of the holy land

.

And today, she made a decision.

To learn swordsmanship in earnest under the elder.

[If you go into the labyrinth anyway, isn’t it a day here?]

I asked.

Just one day a month.

Wouldn’t it be okay to leave one day empty and enter the labyrinth together?

Einar is in trouble . [I want to do that too,

but… I heard that there is a special training method, so you can’t step out of the holy ground for six months.] If it’s a

special training, is that so

? Go.

I knew what a great opportunity this would be. [

I ‘m not going to ask you to wait. It’s the same as saying to accept it unconditionally when the time comes.

.In

this exploration, she succumbed to the force of the plunderer and had to swear an oath.

Also, how was it in the rift?

Wizards and dwarves, even me, who were my motives, were active, and she was helpless.

‘Actually, that was decisive. I guess. The reason for this decision.’ Maybe he didn’t know, but his

changed

appearance was only enough to

push him

on the back

. Do I need to find a colleague?’

This time, I tried to prepare slowly while taking a break.

Why do the quests not stop every day?
