Surviving as a Barbarian in the Game - Episode 479
479angry big fish (2)
Two warriors and one archer.
and…….
‘Is the boy with a bare body a psychic??’
Well, it will be.
Wizards who have a lot to lose usually don't participate in things like this..
Needless to say, the priest.
‘Anyway, with this combination, you can loot the first floor at this level.…….’
My heart hurts.
How helpless did our baby barbarians feel?.
Although I cannot even dare to judge that feeling,.
“…….”
At least I can convey that feeling to those guys..
“Smile?”
One of the guys frowned..
However, judging by the nuance, it doesn't seem like he is doubting my identity. Should I just say that it seems like they are laughing at an innocent barbarian who doesn't know how scary the world is??
“Hey! Surely the heart is special? These guys are very fearless. Scary head.”
For now, I decided to match it..
thus…….
Sigh.
Then, as if he had sensed something strange, he took a step back and glanced at Einar, who was sleeping on the bare floor..
Drurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr! Drurrrrr…….
How long is he going to pretend to sleep?.
Tuk-tuk.
When I hit Einar's back with my toe to indicate that it was okay to get up, Einar immediately got up in surprise..
“……Wow! What, what?!”
The reaction is too realistic to be called acting..
‘…You were really asleep.’
Even though I didn't feel like I was popular, how could I continue to sleep when we were talking so close together??
I don't know, but the situation isn't that bad.
That's right too.
“uh? What, what! You guys!”
How can I not be fooled by this??
“iced coffee! You, you guys……!”
Of course, Aanar seemed to have realized the identity of the uninvited guests, so I quickly stopped talking..
“be careful.”
To be precise, it means to watch your mouth, not your body..
“Ah, I got it.…….”
Einar was behind me holding a weapon, and I also raised my iron greatsword and glanced at them as if on guard..
The guys were laughing and warming up as if it was funny..
“Just ask one thing. Are you looters??”
They didn't even respond to my question..
“Brother, let’s finish it quickly before anyone sees it, right? It seemed like the guild could smell it too..”
Well, it seems like they're treating me like someone who's already dead..
Okay, just try the first bread..
From then on, it's all up to me.—.
“wait for a sec! That barbarian... It looks kind of familiar... … . Where is it? Where did you see it?……?”
Suddenly, the hunchbacked crossbowman looked at me and narrowed his eyes..
Did you really recognize me??
If this happens, we have no choice but to go to plan B.—.
“What and where do you see it? They all look similar. Maybe that’s why it looks familiar..”
Just in time, appropriate support fire followed..
“Hmm, it doesn't feel that way.…….”
Bow Jab's unique survival instinct was admirable, but unfortunately, the melee classes seemed to have a greater say within the team..
“Think about it later. First of all, let's get this sorted out from here..”
That's the policy.
“Hehehehe.”
They grinned and narrowed the siege..
and…….
Tuk.
The moment my back touched the wall while I was stepping back.
The guy on the left quickly swung his long sword..
Huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu-!
Pagoneum with appropriate momentum.
However, I just looked at the long sword aimed at my neck. But did that make it look like I couldn't even react to the surprise attack?.
“…….”
The corners of the prosecutor’s eyes are bent..
Well, it didn't take long for embarrassment to appear on his face..
Kakak-
A long sword blocked by skin without even making a scratch..
“…Uh oh?”
Yes, looking at that expression, it seems like all the patience I've waited until now has been rewarded..
Sigh.
I held the blade with my bare hand, as if handling a bug stuck to my body..
and…….
“……uh!”
Pulled using wrist snap.
A prosecutor who is helpless with the basics of not letting go of his weapon..
Wow-
I quickly stretched out my other hand and grabbed the hair..
Then, a guy right next to me aimed a double-edged ax at my hand. I don't know what the situation was, but it seems like he decided that he had to save his comrades.…….
Kakak-
Yeah, it's not easy to make the right decision in a split second..
“Einar.”
As soon as my permission was given, Einar swung his sword..
The target is the warrior who hit my arm with an axe.
Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!
As soon as the swords collide, an explosion occurs, and the body of the warrior holding the ax scatters blood and scatters into dozens of pieces..
“……artillery, wide sword!”
The psychic shouted as if starting a game..
That was the magician's will..
Kwaaaaang-!
A magician who was torn to pieces without even being able to resist..
On the other hand, there was also someone who made the right decision..
Tadat.
Perhaps because of his position, or because he intuitively felt a sense of danger, he was a crossbowman who kept his distance from us..
“……Rain, Bjorn Yandel!”
The crossbow man must have already realized who I am, and as soon as one of his colleagues exploded, he turned his back and ran away..
but…….
「The character casted [Transcendence].」
I'm going to run away.
「Character casted [Eye of the Storm].」
Is that okay?.
***
patter.
As soon as I twist the hair branch I was holding, my body goes limp..
As I relax my hands, the prosecutor with his neck bent falls to the floor with a heavy sound..
I lowered my head and looked down.
“…Yes, please save me. I am different from these guys. Oh, I just happened to fall for these guys’ trick. Well, I said don't do this! Really!”
The crossbow man, the only survivor, was begging me for his life with his head on the floor..
Sigh.
Einar raised his sword as if he was hesitating, and the crossbowman was scared and screamed..
“Well, I have some information.!”
Hmm?
“information?”
I slightly raised my hand to stop Einar..
Then was there a glimpse of hope?.
He put a condition on it..
“……Instead, I swear that if I tell you, I will save your life... Please do it.”
“I swear…….”
He's a funny guy.
As I was quietly smiling, Einar raised his voice in indignation..
“Bjorn! It's better to just kill this guy.!”
“stop. calm down.”
“…….”
“good. I swear. If I think the information you gave me is of value, I will let you live..”
I coolly swore.
However, the expression on the crossbow man’s face when he heard the answer he wanted was very strange..
He looks like he's wondering whether he can believe this or not.?
Still, the crossbow man's decision was over quickly..
“Boo, I'm sure this story would be of value to you, Baron.…….”
I guess they decided that someone like me would never break an oath.…….
“Okay, just say it..”
When I urged him on, the crossbow man could not hide his tension and slowly opened his mouth..
“Yes, they are wizards.…….”
Wizard?
Why did the wizard suddenly.
I gave him a look that told me to quickly get to the point, and he continued talking..
“Some wizards... We are placing requests on the black market. I'll pay you more, so bring me the heart of the barbarian.…….”
“Hmm…….”
What is that.
“Is that all??”
“……yes?”
When I answered harshly, the crossbowman's face hardened..
But so what??
It wasn't really worth talking about..
Not only is there no explanation as to who the wizard who placed the request is, but even if you know who it is, if there is no evidence, there is no way to punish it from the outside..
“If this is all—.”
Just slowly relax now..
As I was about to say that, he cut me off and shouted..
“more! There's more, Baron.!”
“……?”
“Ah, on the black market… There is also a request for the Baron's heart.…….”
“……what?”
Surprised, I asked for more details..
The reward for this request is a whopping 2 billion stones..
The client is unknown?
“It's a black market…….”
As I was lost in thought, he noticed me and started appealing to me..
“……I… How do you feel? I wonder if this amount of help was helpful to the Baron.……?”
Oh, that?
It was definitely useful talk..
This was the first time I heard this information as I have no connection at all..
I plan to do some research when I return to the city later..
but…….
“No, not at all. Well then, let’s slowly relax now..”
They say it’s not me, so what are you going to do??
“This is different from a promise—.”
What are you saying, this bastard?.
Kuuk.
When I put my foot on the guy's head and pressed it down, the crossbow man started twisting his body as if he was in pain..
There was no particular sympathy..
The same was true for the guilt of breaking an oath..
“Promises are made with people..”
After saying those words, I gave strength to my feet..
Kwasik-
After I finished clearing out every last one, I took their equipment and backpacks and put them in sub-space..
It may not be much, but it would be perfect to put it in the barbarian public treasury and use it for barbarian sprouts.—.
Puuk.
……huh?
I heard an eerie sound next to me, so I turned my head and saw Einar holding the great sword in reverse, slashing at the corpse..
“What are you doing, Einar?……?”
“Can't you see it? These guys are ripping out my heart..”
“……?”
“Shouldn’t I let you know? If they want our heart, they have to risk theirs too..”
hmm…….
Do you want to say that one punishes all??
“I'll finish it soon, so don't worry about it..”
After saying that, Einar cut out the hearts of two relatively healthy corpses and laid them out on the rocks as if they were exhibiting works of art..
“Okay, that's it. Let's go. Bjorn. Aren’t you going to kill more of the other guys too? I think I can act better now.!”
If you look closely, he’s really scary too..
***
4Day 1, Day 5, Day 6…….
Even after successfully completing my first fishing trip, time passed quickly..
The days of endlessly wandering around the crystal cave, even saving time to sleep..
Over time, our fishing became more sophisticated..
He added details by smearing goblin blood on his body, and carried the grade 9 magic stones he had collected in his pocket..
It would have been nice if there were a lot of scars here, but that wasn't realistically possible..
A wound like that regenerates in less than a minute..
Anyway, perhaps my efforts were effective, and I was able to find and kill another group of similar-looking marauders before the end of the fifth day..
For your information, these guys were more cautious than the previous guys and secretly followed us and observed us.…….
“Shit.”
What's wrong with calling it good news?.
Four fresh hearts were found in these guys' backpacks..
We already finished one before we met..
“……Einar, calm down. I'm going to try my hand at this problem as soon as I get back..”
“…….”
“So let's go. Everyone will be waiting.”
“i get it…….”
After calming Einar down, we headed to the center where our colleagues would be waiting..
“mister!”
Erwen must have sensed my presence from far away and came to meet me..
First, we followed Erwen to the cave where the monument was, then turned on the voice control magic and had a conversation..
“Emily, did anything special happen??”
“It couldn't have been there. What you feared happened.”
“If that's what I was worried about…….”
“There are people watching us nearby..”
Yeah, that's right…….
“What should I do? If they are sent by Count Alminus, summoning a hierarchical monarch like this could be very dangerous..”
Bersil gives advice with a serious expression..
However, I grinned..
“Don't worry too much. Because it's within the expected range..”
“……You expected it.?”
Oh, you even applied to the guild for a subjugation, saying where to hunt??
It's strange that we can't predict this level of checks..
‘Besides, it's not 'something I was worried about'..’
To put it bluntly, it's close to 'what I expected'.
When Bersil asked me about my future plans, I gave a straight answer..
“The hierarchical monarch will be summoned as scheduled..”
A big fish took the bait.
