Surviving as a Barbarian in the Game - Episode 454
454Hwa Barbarian Revolution (3)
When people come together, it becomes an organization..
Even if it's only four people.
When we gathered together four administrative staff and started to distribute backlogged work, they divided up the roles according to their specialties..
Oh, of course Shavin Emoor's contribution was great..
“Mary, please take on the task of organizing and calculating the data going forward. Right now, we just need to deal with the past data left behind by the former elders first..”
“……Well, can I do it? When I looked at the remaining material, I noticed that it was in a random format with no format, and the text was difficult to read.…….”
“I could. I will help you a lot.”
“yes…….”
Mary Jayna in Statistics and Information Resources.
“Mr. Ramden, please prepare for the coming-of-age ceremony that will be held in two days..”
“Oh, coming of age ceremony.……?”
“It may be an unfamiliar task, but since it is a small-scale event, you will be able to do it. If you don’t know anything or have any questions, please ask Pnellin. Pnellin, can you help me??”
“iced coffee! Of course! Just trust me!”
“……What do you do after the preparations for the coming of age ceremony are over??”
“Once you have the statistical data, create a budget. On a monthly basis, not a yearly basis.”
“…I understand.”
Shepherd Lambden of Financial Planning and Management.
“Mr. Anderson... I know it without you saying it?”
“yes… … . The land.…….”
“From what I could see, there was nothing prepared. First, go to the forest and take a survey. Since they say they will build a new road later, they are allowing us to leave the land that will be used as a road empty. ah! We also need to leave land where children can grow up in the future. We need to build a new childcare facility.”
“…Isn’t it practically urban planning! Is it okay for me to do such an important thing??”
“I've given you permission, but what can't you do? Besides, I'm not asking you to manage the entire sacred site right away. Since you are selling land starting from the outskirts, you just need to take care of that area for now..”
“……I'll try it.”
Rick Anderson of Road Transport and Urban Development.
“Right now, the work is simply divided, but in the future, when new personnel come in, it will function as one department. Then you will become the head of a department..”
Of course, Shavin Emour will be the commissioner..
Ah, was this the source of that mysterious motivation??
I don't know, but Shavin Emoor's mercenary skills were quite impressive even to me. Not only was it not enough to complete the organizational reorganization that started from scratch in an instant, but it also provided motivation.?
‘You're doing a lot better than I thought.…….’
In the past, I was a girl who visited dessert shops whenever I had time..
I never would have guessed that this side was hidden..
It was a time when I was witnessing with my own eyes the moment when the Barbarian administrative agency was born..
“excuse me…….”
Mary Jaina of Statistics raised her hand cautiously..
“When do you get off work?……?”
Shavin glanced at me instead of answering..
I guess this is not at your discretion..
From today on, working time is like gold, so I quickly answered the question..
“Why do you leave work??”
“…yes?”
“Are you idiots? If you work at night, your salary is double.!”
“……?”
When the administrators who could not accept my words became stone-like, Shavin Emoor explained my words at length..
“It's a busy time. It's not like I haven't worked overtime. Fortunately, they say you will be paid more for the amount of work you do, so let's all suffer together for the time being. We've all had enough rest, so being this busy isn't that bad.?”
“……yes.”
This is how the Barbarians roll today too..

After the administrative staff began their work, I headed to the tent of the former tribal leader..
There was something I didn't ask about last time..
“Yandel's son Biyo—”
“He is the tribal leader.
“………Yes, chieftain. What's going on??”
I made up my mind and got to the point..
“I want to know about the Balkans.”
“Ah, the owner of your first nickname..”
Balkan, Cagureas son of Shalik.
A tribal hero who died 21 years ago at the age of 55..
Actually, it was only recently that I found out his real name..
Until then, I thought he was already dead and I didn't really investigate..
“…So what are you curious about??”
“All about the Balkans.”
“This is going to be a long story again. Sit or lie down, it's up to you..”
The tribal leader sighed as if he was annoyed, but answered the questions I asked faithfully..
“Since I had just completed my coming-of-age ceremony, Vulkan had been a famous warrior within the tribe. Actually, I didn't have much interest in the tribe, but since I was the strongest in the tribe,.”
“How strong was it??”
“I'm no match for the person I am now.”
Well, with that kind of wording, I think it would be correct to say that I was stronger than I am now..
“Some say he was 'humanized' because he rarely interacted with other warriors, but the Vulcan I saw was a warrior like no other. He only cared about getting stronger.”
“Wasn’t everyone like that back then??”
“Hahaha! That's right. Those days were truly amazing! Unlike now, there were hundreds of explorers exploring the 9th floor beyond the 8th floor. All six races advanced toward the abyss as if competing, and it was common for the Noble Phantasm of Creation to be passed on to the warrior who approached the front line. Vulcan was one of those warriors..”
The golden generation that older explorers sometimes speak of even today..
“But in the end, most of the top explorers were wiped out due to dimensional collapse.?”
Titana Akurava was part of that generation..
She experienced the tragedy firsthand and survived..
Perhaps that is why, even as time has passed, they continue to ask the royal family for the truth about the dimensional collapse and demand strict management..
“It was a terrible disaster. Well, it has nothing to do with the death of Balkan..”
“Why did the Balkans die??”
“No one knows why. Because he and his companions all went into the labyrinth and never came back..”
“I see. Even the Noble Phantasm of Creation was reborn in a sacred place, so no one would have any doubts..”
“Do you think he might be alive?”
“You might have been in a similar situation to me..”
“Puhahaha! For a warrior, doubt is a skill..”
The former tribal leader seemed to feel that my opinion was absurd, but he did not criticize me or try to change my mind..
“Anyway, I heard that our tribe was not the only group of creation treasures that returned at that time..”
“her… I never thought you would know that too. The noble spirit is truly amazing..”
The source was Lee Baek-ho, but there was no reason to explain, so I just asked again..
“Which tribe was it??”
“They were fairies and dwarves..”
“That's right…….”
Afterwards, on the day of my coming-of-age ceremony, I asked if all six races knew anything about the Noble Phantasm of Creation that was stolen at the same time, but unfortunately I did not receive the answer I wanted..
“Well, I don't know anything about the whereabouts of the Noble Phantasm of Creation..”
Tsk, I was wondering if you knew anything else..
“ah! Now that I think about it, I guess I should tell you too. There was a strange thing related to the Treasure of Creation..”
“amazing thing?”
“While the former tribal leader was away, someone left a letter behind. It was a letter containing a prophecy that a holy war would occur in the future and that someone would steal the Noble Phantasm of Creation on March 1, 153..”
ah… that……….
While I was irritated without realizing it, the former tribal leader continued speaking in a very excited voice..
“Isn’t it amazing? It's clear that the ancestral spirits helped us! The shaman said so too!”
I don't know about the shaman, but since the topic came up, I also asked something I was curious about..
“But how did it happen that you received such a letter??”
At first, I thought that was what happened because I ignored the letter. However, now I see that the barbarians were also clearly aware of the letter..
If so, what was the cause??
The truth I heard from the mouth of the former tribal leader was this:.
“At first, I think I thought the letter was a joke. You probably thought the young warriors were playing a prank. However, later, when the Holy Relic War actually broke out, the former tribal leader seems to have thought that something was unusual..”
Okay, let’s say it can last until the Holy Relic War..
“Then what about the Noble Phantasm of Creation? If you knew, why did you get robbed??”
“I don't know. We were clearly well prepared, but when we let you into the city, all the warriors were down..”
“Did you share that letter with other races??”
“I didn't do anything like that..”
“why?”
“If I told you that an ancestral spirit gave me a revelation, would they believe me??”
Uh, that's right.
Afterwards, I asked the tribal leader what preparations he had made to prevent the theft of the Noble Phantasm of Creation, and the tribal leader explained in quite detail..
‘You were preparing really hard. I really didn't notice anything on the day of the coming of age ceremony..’
What on earth happened that day??
Now that I'm the tribal leader, I need to dig deep. If you have the Noble Phantasm of Creation, you can gain the upper hand in your relationship with Baekho Lee.…….
It's actually graduation equipment..
“By the way, what about the letter? Are there still any left? I would like to see it in person too.”
“well? I heard that a former tribal leader had it, but it didn't extend to me. I'm sure I lost it somewhere..”
“Right…….”
After telling the story about the disappearance of the letter I left in the past, I asked the last question..
“But what happened to the shaman? He asked his disciple and he said he was retired..”
“Ah, if it were a former shaman, he would have suffered a problem while being scolded and would have been lying down sick..”
“He said he was sick……?”
“To be precise, it is a state of being alive without any consciousness. I told him to kill me because he seemed hopeless, but my disciple looked after him very much, fearing that he might wake up at any moment. So I just said so..”
Hmm, I see..
“If all your questions are answered, leave now. I'm hungry after talking for a long time..”
“I get it.”
I could see in real time that the former tribal leader was losing interest in the conversation with me, so I quickly walked out without bothering him any further. And before leaving, I headed to the tent of the old shaman whose location I asked about..
Sigh.
The dark tent was filled with smoke from scented candles..
A fishy yet unpleasant scent.
Soon I walked to the bed where the old witch doctor was lying like a corpse..
and at that moment.
“……wealth, tribal leader?!”
A disciple shaman whom I had seen once before rolled back the tent and came in, looking at me and being scared..
“Oh no! There's still a lot left to learn, so don't kill yourself just because you're chomping at the food! Am I working hard?!!”
uh…….
I was just on my way so I came to say hello..
“request… … . Even though he is a dying old man, he is a precious teacher to me.……!”
In the end, I had no choice but to leave the tent as if I was being kicked out..
***
The appearance of Shavin's administrative corps gave me time to catch my breath, but even so, I had to keep moving without any time to rest until the last day..
I am the master of Baron Yandel, the head of the Anavada Clan, and the tribal leader of the Barbarians..
I was busy preparing for exploration, completing tribal quests, and finally getting scolded by Amelia for coming home..
‘Next month will be busier than this one……?’
Well, I guess so..
Next month, I have to participate in the meeting of Melves, a union of nobles of different races, and I have to sell the sacred land in earnest..
‘Is it fortunate that a meeting was held in Melves the day after the expedition?…….’
If the rally had been held this month, I would have had to take a day off to participate..
“Phew…….”
Thinking about the homework piling up every day makes me a little depressed, but what can I do? There are daily quests left, but it is inherently impossible to ignore them..
Actually, now I can't stop halfway..
“Tribal leader, everything is ready..”
As I was taking a moment to catch my breath in the tent, First Elder Einar came in and called me..
[20 : 58]
It's already time.
As I left the tent and started walking along with Einar, I was able to quickly reach the location..
Grumbling-!
A vacant lot in the middle of a lush forest.
What illuminates the dark night are not LED street lights, but flickering torches, and wherever you look from the north, south, east, and west, it is a place teeming with muscular barbarians.…….
plod.
The very place where I first opened my eyes in this world.
plod.
As soon as I entered the open space filled with various weapons, the eyes of the young warriors focused on me..
Eyes located somewhere between excitement and tension.
‘……Something feels strange.’
I looked around at the young warriors and shouted with all my might..
“Congratulations! Young warriors!”
Just like I heard that day in the forest.
“From today, you will leave the Holy Land and be reborn as true warriors.!”
no need for long words.
“Now, let's come out one by one and choose a weapon that suits you.!”
Oh, of course, unlike back then, one line was added..
“Leather boots and two bottles of potions are provided as standard.!”
Now it's time to move on to a new era.
“Behel—laaaaaaa!!!”
The young warriors are shouting whether they like the welfare system that started from this time..
I wasn't aiming for it, but thanks to you I was able to find it easily..
While everyone is yelling.
“…….”
A warrior who rolls his eyes with a stiff expression.
Chureup.
As soon as I found it, I licked my lips without realizing it..
‘This is 100%.’
It's newbie.
