Surviving as a Barbarian in the Game - Episode 129
129Tue Karlstein (3)
The head of the Karlstein family invited me to his mansion..
From what I heard, it has been going on for about three months now..
So what is the reason??
The first thing that came to mind was this.
‘curiosity.’
I just wanted to meet my daughter's colleague, me..
It is quite possible if Misha is accepted as a member of the family..
After meeting her, I realized that if she found me unsatisfactory, it was possible to ask her to let go of her daughter. It seemed that most of the family's children were comfortably working as explorers in large clans with good connections..
but…….
[Well, I just need to hold on a little longer..]
It turned out that Misha's situation was still the same..
Author Aviran kept Misha's awakening a secret and did not even try to improve Misha's position in the family..
The moment I realized this fact.
I felt a dark malevolence coming from this mansion..
The malice was not only directed at Misha, but also at me..
‘You knew it was this bad, but you called me here.…….’
What is the purpose of the family home?.
And what was chosen as the means was very clear to me..
‘He was even crazier than I heard..’
The matriarch wants something from me..
But instead of politely setting up a negotiating table, we created this.
It was probably calculated like this.
Bjorn, son of Little Balkan Yandel.
A warrior who did not abandon his comrades even from hierarchical monarchs..
A barbarian who may be in a romantic relationship with that colleague..
If the public saw me like this, I would have thought it would be easy to control. Because the only person who could change Misha's current situation was the matriarch..
However, based on this, I decided.
‘You're a bastard who doesn't hesitate to use even your daughter. If you look down on me once, there will be no answer..’
Plan A is not enough.
If you end up here, you'll just end up as an ordinary barbarian..
so that…….
plod.
I take a step forward and stare at my brother..
He wasn't scared at all when he saw me..
I just laugh like it's absurd.
“This guy is never satisfied..”
He seemed to think I was just begging for something else..
Well, if you think about it, it’s not really wrong..
“Rain, Bjorn… … ! That didn't work!!”
Misha hurriedly grabbed my wrist, and I stopped..
Because I really didn't mean to beat this guy..
This guy is not an employee of the mansion, but one of the direct blood relatives..
If you attack with ignorance, it will actually become a weakness..
thus.
“Behel—laaaaa!!”
Let out a loud shout so that it can be heard anywhere in the mansion..
My brother frowned at my actions like that..
“What is this??”
“I just felt like doing that.!”
“……crazy guy.”
No matter what he said, my shout became a catalyst and gathered everyone in the mansion..
1Employees at the end of the hallway connecting the floors leave their work and look around..
As I quietly look towards the second floor, I notice young men and women wearing good quality everyday clothes..
‘Is he Misha's brother??’
I don't know, but they were looking down with interesting eyes..
‘Anyway, that's enough for spectators and witnesses..’
The stage must have been set, so I finished the ignorant barbarian mode and spoke to my brother..
“Talon Karlstein.”
“It's not Talon, it's Tailon.”
“You're unmanly and concerned about trivial things..”
“……Okay, what do you want to say??”
Does he want to discuss manhood with me? He asks me to get to the point..
I asked a direct question.
“Why is Misha treated like this within the family??”
“Like I said before, it's a family affair—”
“Is it because Misha is half a penny? Although she is a direct blood relative, she has not been able to contract with the number of souls.?”
For a moment I was taken aback by my words.
He smiled and looked at Misha..
It was a look of disdain as to why I even told this guy in detail..
“Since you know, there's nothing to hide. Yes, what you say is true. So stop paying attention to my family’s circumstances..”
The guy's words to pay no mind were quite reasonable..
Except for us barbarians, everyone has a culture that values bloodlines..
It was natural for them to treat Misha like a stranger..
If I had inherited the blood of the head of the family, I would never have been unable to contract with a soul tree..
There really wasn't a drop of blood involved..
His mother, who was his fourth wife, appears to have had no children other than Misha..
but…….
“What if it was a misunderstanding on your part??”
the truth doesn't matter.
The important thing now is that Misha has already awakened, and this fact can be used as a useful card..
“If Misha signs a contract with the Soul Beast, will he apologize for what he has done so far and accept him as a member??”
“I turned 25, there's no way something like that could happen.—”
“Answer me. If you just answer this, I won't make a fuss anymore..”
My brother sighed, touched his forehead, and opened his mouth in an annoyed voice..
“Okay, I'll give you as many apples as I want..”
“Accepting it as a member?”
“It's the same too.”
The guy who answers without even thinking about it, probably because he thinks it can never be like that..
I smiled and nodded..
“That's it then.”
“I can't believe it's done……?”
He asked back in an uneasy voice at my attitude..
Instead of answering, I shifted my gaze to Misha..
Well, now my role is over.
“Misha, show me.”
“Uh, uh……?”
When Misha suddenly becomes the center of attention, she panics and looks around at her surroundings. As soon as her eyes met mine, Misha lowered her head and muttered..
“However, my father…….”
I was wondering why he hasn't come out yet, and as expected, it seems like the head of the family has silenced him..
But that's why Misha needs to give strength..
Revealing this fact in front of everyone would mean losing one piece of the family's hand..
“Don't worry. nothing will happen.”
“……Yo, I won't forgive you.”
“Then what is it? Say you did something wrong. Because that's what families do..”
“Bjorn, maybe even you could be wrong..”
“That's right. It's not that scary.”
To him, he's a heavenly father, but to me, he's just the leader of the beastman tribe..
It is also divided into five.
“What's so scary? Family isn't everything in life. I've lived just fine without that..”
Soon, I picked my ears and spoke, and Misha laughed as if it was ridiculous..
“That's you! No, that's okay. What's the use of this??”
“Okay, just ignore the little things. it's good for your mental health.”
“Ugh, I don’t know anymore. What's right?.”
Okay, I think I'm done persuading you at this point..
“Misha Karlstein, just do what you want at least once. Isn’t there a colleague by your side to help you this time?.”
After that, I said no more..
Time passed at the end, and soon Misha raised his head and slowly looked around..
Was this situation quite interesting??
Many people were just watching from afar..
gulp.
Misha swallowed..
And it was at that moment that I opened my mouth as if to reflect on my decision..
“I am—”
A cold voice filled the spacious house..
At this, Misha stiffened like a stone, and when he came to his senses, a middle-aged man was standing in front of him..
“Everyone go away.”
At one word from the man, no one left the room without opening a word..
The air suddenly settled down so heavily that it felt like it was being crushed..
The man's eyes are on me..
There wasn't a word of introduction, but I knew who this guy was..
‘Yeah, this guy is that crazy bastard..’
Albreniv Karlstein.
The head of the Kalstein family who served as the tribal leader of the Red Miao tribe for generations..
“Thank you for accepting my invitation, Bjorn, son of Yandel..”
“Thank you for inviting me. Karlstein.”
We exchanged formal greetings in the middle of the first floor lobby, where everyone had disappeared..
“Haha, you're a more polite friend than I thought.?”
He came towards me with a friendly smile..
And instead of shaking hands, he patted me on the shoulder as if addressing someone below me..
But what is this again?.
「The character is put into a state of [fear] by the [Lord of Nightmares].」
My body stiffens as if I have met a natural enemy..
Additionally, a tingling sensation blooms in my brain that I felt every time I crossed the border between life and death. She seemed to know for the first time why Misha was so afraid of her father..
It was that time.
“But why did you do that? out of habit.”
The head of the house stops laughing and whispers..
I felt like such a dog.
My head knows that this is the power of the skill, but my body doesn't obey..
It feels like my sense organs are broken..
Of course it wasn't long.
「The character's magic power is above a certain level..」
「The character's fighting spirit is above a certain level..」
「The character's mental strength is above a certain level..」
「[[Fear] is out of state.」
Hehehe, it's finally released..
“Look—”
I immediately took the arm of the guy who was talking in an arrogant voice from my shoulder..
“……?”
A frowning eyebrow as if you don’t understand.
Well, if I had expected this situation, I wouldn't have said such an asshole thing just now..
“Why do you touch other people’s bodies??”
I said, throwing the arm I was holding to the side..
“Oh, without any habit.”
If the words that come are good, then the words that go are also good..
***
“That's fun.”
After a moment of silence, the matriarch spoke.
It gave me goosebumps to hear him say something like that without smiling.…….
How you can't lose in a battle of momentum.
“You have unique tastes. I'm having no fun at all.”
I tried my best to respond calmly and grabbed Misha's hand, which was as stiff as a stone statue..
As a result, the gaze of the family head also shifted to Misha..
“Ah, father…….”
“I never thought you would rebel against me.”
“Well, it's not that.…….”
“It's okay, you're not important anyway.”
The matriarch cuts off Misha, who was trying to make an excuse, and stares at me..
“Originally, I had planned to talk after having lunch together..”
It's a shame to talk.
He said he was planning to show me how Misha was treated there..
As I stared at him without replying, the head of the family continued speaking..
“I refuse.”
“what?”
1The head of the family shows a distorted expression in response to the answer without even a second of hesitation..
I just said nopaku.
“why should i wait?”
Giving time is foolish..
First of all, he had no choice but to come out because of Misha, but this situation probably wasn't in his plan..
I guess I'll just organize my thoughts and sing again..
“If you have something to say, say it here.”
“……Even for a barbarian, this is a bit rude..”
“It was you who called that barbarian, beastman..”
Didn't he expect that he would be called a beastman rather than a name or a status as a tribal leader or head of the family??
The matriarch’s expression hardens, and a murderous spirit radiates out..
Not a description, really..
‘……This also happens in real life?’
I was a little surprised, but it was still much weaker than the fox mask..
Well, it was a spiritual world..
There will be a difference in the output..
After picking his ears to tell him not to mess around, the head of the house asked as if he was genuinely curious..
“Are you really not afraid of death??”
It was a really useless question to me..
Aren’t you afraid of death??
Could there be such a person in this world?.
“Well, I'm not sure about that. You don't seem to be very scared..”
This is sincere.
The head of the family was an explorer on the 8th floor in the past.?
So the truth is, if you stick with me, I'll be a total wreck.?
So what?.
If you kill me, our tribal leader won't just sit still..
“can you kill me?”
I just asked outright this time.
It was that ridiculous..
kill me?
And that's me, the most promising talent among the Barbarians these days.?
In the middle of the sacred place of the beastman I was invited to.?
Immediately, the war with the fairies that happened ten years ago is repeated..
Because barbarians are that kind of race..
“what? Hahahahaha!!”
The head of the family tried to act cool and smiled, but I could see deep anger inside..
Well, it must be frustrating.
I don't want to admit it for the sake of face, but what I said is true..
I'm just going to break it down and pass it on..
“It was natural for things to go wrong. Who would have thought he was such a clever guy.”
“I appreciate the compliment, but I think I'm starting to get hungry, so please reply. what do you have to say to me?”
The matriarch just looked at me for a moment as if gathering her thoughts, then opened her mouth..
“I know you used that stuff..”
Only then did all my questions become clear..
Frost Spirit Ring.
After all, this is why they started this damn thing..
