Surviving as a Barbarian in the Game - Episode 495

495declaration of war (6)

A declaration of war that has been endured for over 10 years.

“……!!!”

“……!!!”

The wizards, the citizens who filled the square, and the knights of Mozlan all gaped and widened their eyes..

‘'What did I just hear?' Those kind of faces.

The old wizard, who had a similar expression, finally came to his senses and opened his mouth..

“······That's too heavy to be a joke..”

Just kidding…….

Well, the rule is that when you experience something shocking, you first deny it..

I didn't bother to answer and waited for a while..

Even barbarians need time to think..

For about 3 seconds.

“······me, war!!”

The moment a warrior shouted out loud.

From this point onwards, strong shouts follow..

“It's war.!!”

“Everyone take up your weapons!!”

“Behel—rayaaaaaaaa!!”

As more than a thousand warriors shouted in unison, the group of wizards guarding the front of the magic tower visibly faltered..

It's not that I don't understand.

Although it is absurd to compare the combat power of a wizard and a warrior based on their size,…….

But that doesn't mean there aren't any visual effects..

“Wow wow!”

“right! right! right! right! right! right! right!”

The muscular barbarians, with an average height of 2m 10, form a huge army and look as if they will attack at any moment, so it would be strange not to flinch..

“gaffer.”

I asked, taking a big step toward the group of over a hundred wizards..

“Does it still sound like a joke??”

“…….”

The old wizard gave no reply with a blank expression, as if he was dreaming..

Well, people say.

plod.

Just as I was about to take one more step.

“Hey, Baron Yandel! You can't do this.!”

Mozlan's knight came running with excitement..

For a moment he was mesmerized by the maddening heat radiating from the warriors, and he seemed to have realized his role, albeit belatedly..

“Oh, it's war! How about we calm down and talk first? Wow, even considering the royal family.……!”

Even though I was excited, the wording wasn't bad..

If he had made a threatening statement, such as asking if the royal family would stay quiet, the atmosphere would have become more hostile..

“Talk…….”

“Yes, yes! I'm sure we'll be able to find common ground through conversation! Aren't the Magic Tower and Barbarians both one of the pillars that maintain this city? Please at least think of this city……!”

When the driver pleaded with me to buy some time, I pretended to think about it and then nodded..

“good night!”

“Is it really true?!”

Yes, I think this is the end of the show of force..

I really had no intention of attacking the magic tower like this..

The situation has already caught the attention of the entire city..

If you attack here recklessly, only the barbarians will become villains..

Yeah, I mean…….

“Llewin Pastholm of the Egatil School!”

I started calling people's names one by one..

“Lurendel Lungonerd of the Hulbent School! Odwig Vertef of the Ultus School! Elenel Dwainein of the Order of Galatyr!”

When I called out the names of the wizards belonging to the Magic Tower, saying I wanted to talk, the citizens listened intently, wondering what the situation was..

“Tols Ellin of the Ebound School! Ukla Trazig of the Ornstalt school! Wiltom's school…….”

So, I clearly mentioned the names of a total of 21 wizards one by one and then asked the old wizard..

“Old man, do you know who these people are??”

“Of course. Most of them are young, great wizards who will lead the next era..”

“No, you're wrong.”

I shook my head and said firmly.

“These are! They are wizards who have requested the heart of a barbarian from traitors in the black market.!”

In any war, cause is important..

“ah! So the barbarians entered the magic tower.……!”

“They say they rescued slaves from the black market. I guess they got that information then.!”

The citizens who were watching nodded, finally realizing why I had come to the Magic Tower. Some people were convinced that if it were him, he would have protested..

but…….

‘If this was going to be the end of it, I wouldn't have come..’

Appetizers are just appetizers, they can never be the main dish..

“Master Lurendel Galinbarat of the Triten School.”

I asked, mentioning one more person's name..

“Do you know who this person is??”

“…….”

The old wizard made no reply, like a person receiving advice from a lawyer..

Well, that doesn't mean the truth will change..

“He is the one who commissioned the traitors in the black market. you want my heart.”

I dropped the bomb without any regrets.

“……!!”

“……!!”

This was a completely different problem from simply requesting to save the heart of a barbarian..

the heart of a specific living person.

This request was practically no different from an assassination request..

“……Lord Güln, if this is true, then not only his head will be held responsible, but the Tower will also be held responsible..”

Mozlan's knight, who had been wondering what he could do to stop me the whole time, changed his expression and threatened the old man..

That's because Mozlan is not a knight of wizards..

The group called Mozlan itself was established to protect the authority of the ‘nobles’..

“…Nothing has been confirmed yet. But I promise. If such an incident occurred, it would be investigated strictly under the principles of the Magic Tower..”

The old wizard made vague promises like a snake, and Mozlan was unable to say anything..

We acknowledge the seriousness of the issue, but take a step back since we do not have the authority to make a judgment on the spot..

Of course, in my case there was no need for that..

“Magic Tower is suspected of having an affair with black market traitors. So your research is unreliable..”

“……Regardless of the Baron's trust, this is our authority. Besides, there is no evidence yet.?”

“It's evidence…….”

Yeah, I expected it to come out that way..

I took out the secret secret of a time-honored barbarian..

“I swear.”

“……?”

“Bjorn, the leader of the Barbarian tribe and the son of Baron Yandel of the Kingdom of Lafdonia, swears in the name of the royal family and, by extension, the tribe! Everything I said here today is true.!”

It's just a fake promise.

But that was enough.

To persuade all the crowds present here,.

“You must be quite confident to make a declaration in front of everyone..”

“Then the Baron must have lied.?”

“You dirty wizards! How dare you try to harm Baron Yandel?!”

“Quickly bring in the criminal and punish him.!”

The heroic achievements I have left behind so far. Name value. Furthermore, the honest impression and goodwill left on the city. And the combination of the reasons mentioned above moves public opinion..

“Lord Gürn, since the Baron has said this, you too must explain..”

“Didn't I tell you? We will investigate on our own..”

“It's free, but do you really have to do it? If I call them right away and ask, it will be over..”

“…….”

“I guarantee that Mozlan will be given the authority to investigate the wizards in the Tower by this evening. A plot to assassinate a noble is such a serious matter. you really want it?”

The moment investigation authority is given to Mozlan, the Magic Tower will be thoroughly investigated by public authorities..

There will be quite a few dirty corners among them..

However, the decision made by the old wizard was rejection..

“We appreciate your consideration, but we'll take care of that, so you don't have to worry..”

“You're trying to take a difficult path. All you have to do is call them and ask, but why can't you do that easy thing?.”

“…….”

The old wizard exercised his right to remain silent in response to the knight's words, and thus all public opinion was resolved..

Because silence sometimes provides a clearer answer than anything else.

“Dirty magic tower bastards! I knew that!”

“Are you planning to protect the person who dared to harm the Baron?!”

It is clear that the Magic Tower is an evil force, and the barbarians' anger is justified..

If that old man had promised to call the wizards I mentioned here, accuse them of their crimes, and punish them, things wouldn't have ended up like this.…….

‘I guess they'll decide that if they just get through today, they can somehow get it over with, whether it's lobbying or something..’

Thanks to that response, I was able to go one step further..

“Proud subjects of this city who believe in fair opportunity and pursue justice, listen up.!”

As I screamed loudly, the crowd that had been throwing criticism at the magic tower kept their mouths shut..

A political enemy better than ever to instigate.

“The magicians of the corrupted magic tower have no intention of admitting their sins! They're still in a hurry to protect their family! All you have to do is call them while they are resting in the lab and verify them, but the proof is that they are refusing that easy task! Isn't that so??”

“That's right!”

Let us once again remind you that this is justice..

“They will probably destroy the evidence as soon as they return and return with shamelessly fabricated results. It's obvious even without looking. Because we have seen such scenes too many times. Isn't that so??”

“That's right—!!”

It awakens the anger that ordinary people inevitably have..

And at the same time.

“But I no longer intend to helplessly watch by such sins..”

tell them.

I will carry that old anger and move forward instead..

“I, Bjorn, son of Yandel,!”

With my name on my name.

“I promise you! The justice of this city, established under the royal laws of Supreme Lapdonia, will be established once again today.!”

As soon as the oath is sworn, the excited citizens burst into enthusiastic cheers..

“Wowaaaaaaaa!!

Okay, I think the atmosphere is ripe at this point..

If there are civilians mixed in, even wizards won't be able to respond properly..

Okay, the board is now ready..

thus…….

“Phew…….”

Take a long breath, take a deep breath, and then shout with all your might..

“Turn it around!!”

Haven't you been patient and patient since the war with the fairies?.

It was time to remind this city that had forgotten what kind of race barbarians were..

“Behel—laaaaaaa!!”

we don't say anything.

***

Alex Halo, Deputy Chief of the 3rd Magic Army.

After finishing his regular report today, he secretly glanced sideways at his superior before leaving the office..

Neatly ironed uniform despite excessive work.

Blue eyes full of fatigue, but still full of gunfire.

A small hand holding a pen…….

“what are you doing? I'm not going out?”

Before he even flinched at his superior's words, he quickly opened his mouth as if making an excuse..

“Choi, it seems like you've been reading the newspaper a lot lately..”

“ah… This one?”

In fact, there were several copies of newspapers from various companies piled up on the boss's desk..

However, when I pointed this out, my boss, who was always confident, averted his eyes..

As if embarrassed.

“just… It's a hobby. Wouldn’t it be frustrating to be stuck here every day? I know what's going on in the world.”

“…okay.”

That's not to say that the newspapers on my superior's desk had the same content every time. No, not exactly the content, but the main character of the article was the same..

“I heard it's noisy these days. This time, Baron Yandel was named on the Stone of Fame.?”

“That's right. When I first met him, it was just a joke, but now he has truly become a 'great warrior'..”

A voice that seems somewhat lonely.

Alex tilted his head at this..

“Aren't you happy? Isn't Baron Yandel also a former colleague of the vice-captain?.”

“Former colleague... I mean…….”

“ah…….”

Alex, who realized his mistake late, remained silent..

And as I looked at my superior looking down at the newspaper with vague eyes, I felt an inexplicable feeling of discomfort..

A subordinate who can't do his job properly1.

It was an expression that I could never create..

“…….”

“…….”

As if recalling past memories, the superior looked out the window with his chin resting in silence, and Alex stared blankly at the superior's profile..

How long did that time last?.

“Vice-captain! This is an emergency dispatch order.……!”

The office door burst open and a member entered..

The superior came to his senses as if he had never done that before, got up, and took his outer clothes..

He had no choice but to do that too..

Because the 3rd Magic Army is not the Ministry of Public Security or Mozlan, which is in charge of public security. An emergency dispatch order to the military directly under the royal family.?

This means that something more than a simple riot has occurred in the city..

“Tell me in detail.”

As she went out to the parade ground where the assembly order had been issued, she asked her subordinates various questions and soon finished understanding the situation. The situation was clear enough to be summarized in one sentence..

Baron Yandel is leading his tribe members toward the Magic Tower..

“There has been no collision yet, but it is reported that it is certain that the path leads to the Magic Tower..”

“Why? There must be a reason why he did that..”

“Checking. However, as the armed group of more than 1,000 people is moving, it seems that the National Security Agency has requested support from the military..”

“okay…….”

As expected from a military group, all the troops of the corps gathered at the parade ground within a few minutes after the emergency call was issued, and as soon as they gathered, they boarded a carriage and headed to the military platform..

“Vice-captain, does this seem like a really big problem? It seems that our corps was not the only one that received an order to dispatch..”

Excluding their corps, numerous military carriages are lined up on the road leading to the platform..

However, the superior did not respond to Alex's words..

I just bite my nails, which I normally wouldn't, with anxious eyes..

“that person… What kind of accident are you going to cause this time?…….”

Alex saw his boss's signs of anxiety and spoke as positively as he could..

Baron Yandel is a smart man..

Also, since he has a lot of responsibilities, he must have just gone to the Magic Tower to demonstrate his force..

You won't have to worry too much..

He wasn't just offering comforting words, he was truly saying what he was thinking, but his superior's anxious expression showed no signs of abating..

“……Alex. I think I'm mistaken, but it's not Baron Yandel I'm worried about..”

“yes… … ? Ha, but it's still a magic tower, isn't it?.”

Alex didn't understand at all..

Because he was also from the Magic Tower, he knew better than anyone else the power and power of the Magic Tower..

But what is she so worried about?.

Just as she was harboring such questions, her mouth opened again..

“Remember what happened to the Explorers Guild back in the day because of that guy??”

“Oh, you mean that false accusation case?…….”

“yes. At that time, a large-scale escape occurred and the entire guild branch was destroyed. The local mayor was caught off guard by that and lost the next election..”

“still… Guild and Magic Tower are different.”

If you look at the entire explorer guild, you wouldn't know..

Compared to the entire Magic Tower, the guild is like a hole-in-the-wall store..

but…….

“me too… I once thought so... … . A guild and a magic tower are completely different. They're not the type of group that can be swayed by a single barbarian.…….”

“now… Are you saying no??”

Raven nodded without any hesitation..

“yes. Because that person is no longer just another barbarian. He was a barbarian who had only been two months old when he took over. But what about now??”

Alex couldn't say anything..

Now, many years later, he has become the leader of a tribe and a baron of a kingdom..

“More than anything… I know him well..”

“……?”

“Alex, trust me. Once the person has done it, it is not reckless, no matter how reckless it may seem..”

Of course, even with those words, Alex still didn't understand. However, it was not polite to keep contradicting his superior's words, so he kept quiet..

Drurk, drool.

The carriage was moving quickly down the road and eventually arrived at the military platform..

support, support-!

New information arrived via message stone.

[It's a collision, collision situation. Baron Yandel and the barbarian warriors have entered the inside of the magic tower! Please apply quickly!]

Despite the shocking report, the superior just let out a long sigh..

As if I was mentally preparing.
