Surviving as a Barbarian in the Game - Episode 97
97angry barbarian trophy (4)
[When using [Wild Eruption], the threat level increases..
However, at this time, the threat value does not give a ‘provocation’ judgment to non-monsters..
As Dwalki said the other day,.
[Umm… Wow, it was a very strange feeling. My head knows there's no danger, but my body seems to be telling me I need to run away.…….]
A timid person cowers in fear.
A brave man actually shows his will to win..
So what about this guy?.
“Haha!”
The answer was the latter.
For a moment, the guy flinched at the shout he spat out in front of his face, but he immediately came to his senses and swung his sword..
If I had a shield in my left hand like usual, I could have just flicked it away.…….
‘It won't be much different now..’
That's it anyway.
The tanker's body in orbit exists solely to block enemy attacks..
Sreuk.
Move one hand removed from the ax to the path where the sword is swung..
At the same time, a dull sound follows..
kagak-
The look in the eyes of the guy who thought he had won based on that sound raises doubts..
Actually, I guess you were curious..
Sharp cutlery and bare arms.
When will I ever hear a sound like this when the two touch each other??
“……?”
The focus moves with the light hoping for an answer..
His gaze arrives at its destination..
“Don't you understand??”
He nodded blankly at my question..
Why did his sword cut through the skin, but not the bone?.
There are many reasons..
Bone strength, physical resistance, naturally large and strong skeleton, increased physical stats through [Wild Eruption], etc..
On the contrary, if he had cut off my wrist in one go, that would have been even more ridiculous..
but…….
‘There is no need to tell you in detail..’
Because I am a barbarian.
“you—”
One word is enough.
“weak.”
It was a very cringy line after spitting it out, but the effect was significant..
As if he had received the greatest insult, he pulled out the sword stuck in his arm..
It was a bad choice.
Wow-!
Fresh blood sprays as the blade is pulled out..
Cheeeeeeeek-!
The sound of corrosion that follows.
and…….
“Wow!!!!”
moaning in pain.
“a mean move…….”
What do you say, I just stayed still.
I was sure there was something wrong with his head, so I reached out and grabbed the guy by the hair..
Well, if you run away, it'll be a pain in the ass.?
“Wow!”
The blood to the brain is blocked and the fish begins to struggle..
It was as if the table had already been prepared..
If you twist just one corner, you will definitely die..
but…….
「Equipment has been unequipped.」
「Overall item level decreases by -495.」
Put down the weapon you were holding in your hand..
The reason is simple.
Kakakang!
A double-edged battle ax that the butler is said to have paid a lot of money to buy for today..
If you hit his head with this, you won't even be able to make an excuse that you didn't intend to kill him.…….
‘I promised.’
I made a promise to knight Samdori.
I will definitely get rid of the problem with your head when I see you later..
so that…….
Wow.
With a fist the size of a watermelon,
I hit my temple with all my might..
Whoa whoa—!!!
If you have a problem with your head.
“Behel—laaaaaaa!!!!”
All you have to do is get rid of your hair..
Yes, a barbarian would definitely think so..
Or not.
***
silence.
Dim or no sound in the surrounding area.
That situation lasts for a while..
“…….”
It was a very strange sight..
It's a place where so many people gather.
Even when the festival was in full swing.
How often do hundreds of people remain silent and create silence without any tacit agreement??
“Poetry, where is the new building?!!”
The silence came to an end when a knight rushed out carrying a horse with a half-crushed head..
So I also approached the referee..
“Don't I have to tell you who's the winner??”
The referee looked embarrassed at my question and then shouted to the crowd..
“Wow, the winner is Baron Martoin's Bjorn Yandel.!”
At first, I thought they were discriminating against me for being a barbarian..
But looking at the crowd's reaction, it doesn't seem like that is the case..
“Wow!”
“Barbarian! Barbarian is the best!”
“This is my first time experiencing such an exciting duel! I feel like my stomach is empty.!”
“But, that knight is not dead.?”
“You are so cruel. Please touch here. Can you feel your heart pounding??”
“Uh, uh… … Yeah, I can feel it…….”
“How many people die during a duel? And at that level, the priest will treat you well..”
Rather, the reaction was even hotter than the first duel..
“Behel—laaaaaaa!!”
After giving the service and a few cheers, I got off the stage and headed to the barracks..
Not where the Baron would be waiting…….
The barracks where Silmosegi was taken for treatment..
“Yes, yes you! where is this!”
As soon as I entered the barracks, shouts of displeasure erupted..
It belongs to the remaining two of the three knights..
Without even responding, I approached the priest who was treating me..
“is he dead?”
“…There will be no danger to your life..”
Even as the priest answered, he glanced at me with an unfavorable gaze..
“Couldn’t you have taken matters into your own hands a little bit?.”
I was a little offended that a follower of God spoke like that, but I had enough excuses..
“I never thought it would be like this for me.”
“……?”
“Isn’t this an article! I just put down the ax and hit it with my fist! But how do I know that he will faint in one hit??”
At my confident answer, the knight Samdori blushed with shame, and the priest opened his mouth as if it was absurd..
“faint… What do you mean? It was a serious injury that caused brain fluid to ooze out, but I fainted.—”
“If I lived, wouldn't I faint?!”
A choice of words that even Einar, who taught me about the life of a barbarian, would give up on..
Soon the priest kept his mouth shut..
I decided that there was no point in talking..
“…….”
An awkward silence began to fill the barracks..
I thought about just leaving, but Silmosagi came to her senses just then..
“Uh, uh… Where am I……?”
You're muttering with blank eyes.
The divine power unleashed by the high-ranking priest had already completely healed the crushed head, but it was not an all-purpose cheat..
“I was definitely going up to the battlefield.…….”
Hearing his muttering, the priest explained the situation..
There was a major earthquake and my brain was seriously injured there..
But I was treated quickly, so if I give it time, my memories will come back..
“Well, I see. thank you for your help—”
The guy who was thanking the priest for his kind briefing froze when he saw me..
“yes why are you here…….”
A look closer to fear than embarrassment.
It was a little questionable.
He said he lost his memories during the duel. How could he react like this??
“Hmm, I really don’t remember a thing.?”
“Oh, it doesn't fly. So, please leave.”
Well, it doesn't sound like you're lying.…….
Still, since I'm here, I'll have to check things out before I go..
“If you do one thing, I'll leave right away..”
“……?”
“It's nothing special, just repeat what I sing..”
I told him exactly what he had said to me before and asked him to repeat it..
“Well, if I just do that, they’ll let me go?……?”
“Of course.”
When I nodded, the little girl swallowed her saliva..
And he repeated exactly what I said..
But…….
“Well, it got that name in the first place because it was so small... … . Uh, ugh…….”
Suddenly, he trembles like an aspen and holds his head..
“iced coffee… … ! Oh, I remember……!”
As I recalled the past, temporarily lost memories seemed to return..
“Good. keep trying.”
At my continued urging, the thread stiffened like a stone statue and started to fight..
“Well, stop… My, I did everything wrong. So please…….”
Apologizing??
An attitude I couldn't have imagined if it were him in the past..
I breathed a sigh of relief..
“Fortunately, the problem in my head seems to have disappeared..”
“yes. So, please leave now. The patient needs rest.”
“That's right.”
Hearing the priest's words, I left the barracks without any regrets..
“W, I'm going to get out of here. Uh, we need to run away quickly.……!”
A faint commotion was heard from beyond the barracks..
After listening to it, it finally felt real..
I am neither a doctor nor a priest with divine powers..
I'm just a barbarian living in this barbaric world..
But, so what?.
‘As expected, the Barbarian is a fraud..’
Just today.
I solved a problem that even a fuse couldn't fix..
***
“Good job! I really didn't expect it to end so quickly... … . But where did you go??”
When I returned to the waiting barracks, the Baron greeted me..
When I told him that I was curious about the condition of the silkworm and came to see it, he chuckled..
“You too are very special. How dare you attack so mercilessly while caring about such things?.”
To say without mercy is a bit harsh..
“If it were a labyrinth, I would have hit it with an axe..”
“Well, that's probably true…….”
“To be honest, I didn't know it would be this weak. I thought I would be strong because my body is slow..”
An answer I prepared in advance in case something happens..
For some reason, the Baron burst out laughing..
“So, what could be wrong with you? It's because they didn't practice properly..”
“But is it okay to keep doing this? Even though they are apprentice knights, aren’t they also nobles?.”
“Huh, are you really worried about the future? Then don't worry about it at all. Isn’t that what happened during the match??”
“But aren’t knights the family’s property? What if a noble, the title they swore allegiance to, harms me??”
“Uh huh, don't worry? In the first place, why would an apprentice rather than a formal knight participate in a game like this? Because even if I die, it won’t be a big problem..”
The Baron then assured him that no one would embarrass him over such a trivial matter, and that even if something like that were to happen, he would prevent it..
That was exactly what I wanted to hear.
“So, just focus on winning. I saw earlier that people were reacting well. The more you act, the more satisfied the Count who hosted the banquet will be..”
Well, if that's the case.
I feel like I can break all of their heads without worry..
I saw earlier that the priest's abilities were no joke..
“The winner is Lord Tilian of Viscount Henslevania.!”
Afterwards, I watched the duel with the Baron and waited for my turn. It was quite fun at first, but I soon lost interest..
Should I say that the way they fight is very similar??
I think I understand why people were so excited when it was my turn..
‘Is this because he is a noble even though he is a relative? There's no showmanship.’
I was a little tired, so I asked the Baron for permission and took a nap in the corner for a while..
How long has it been since then??
The butler very carefully woke me up..
“…Hey, hey, you, there's someone looking for you.”
“seeker?”
It was a bit sudden, but before the butler could ask anything, he finished what he wanted to say and disappeared..
So, I went out and checked it out..
But what is this again?.
‘Knight Samdori?’
Two of the three people in the example are standing.
Also, before I could even say what I was doing, a guy reached out to grab me by the collar..
I don't know the name.
He was a little clown who slandered me..
“This girl—!”
As I slowly stepped back and avoided his hand, the little clown stiffened as if embarrassed and continued speaking..
“Big, big. this guy! What on earth have you done to Lord Sylvania?!”
“Lord Sylvania?”
I picked my ears and tilted my head, and the guy got very angry..
“You don't even know the name of the person you dueled with?!”
After all, that was his name..
So, the name is…….
“line… Meria…….”
“It's Sylvania.!!”
“Yeah, is there something wrong with him??”
The two people started shaking at my question..
“That's what I mean... … ! As soon as the topic of you comes up, he loses his temper and starts a fuss.!”
“How can it be so vicious? No matter how much you hold a grudge, you can't put a person in that situation... … . You have no mercy or honor.?”
mercy and honor?
10Not something a bastard who said he would cut off my head in seconds would say..
I made a final diagnosis.
“…I never thought the situation would be this serious..”
Need quick problem solving.
***
“Hey, what are you doing here??”
The commotion ended with Baron Martohan sticking his head out beyond the barracks..
I wonder if he was stabbed, or the two people left the place as soon as they saw his face..
“…what were they?”
“It's no big deal.”
“Okay, anyway, come here. I had a great idea, but I was wondering if it was actually possible..”
Afterwards, I went back to the barracks and had a trivial conversation with the Baron to kill time, and before I knew it, the first round had ended..
And the quarterfinals tournament began..
But is this the ‘hero’s fate’ that the shaman was talking about??
“Lord Quartean by Baron Serpia and Bjorn Yandel by Baron Martohan, please take your seats.!”
Surprisingly, I faced one of the knights Samdori in the second round..
He was a guy with braggadocious traits..
“Don't expect it to be the same as before..”
Even though the duel has started, the guy is fluttering his mouth and saying something..
“I must say it myself, Lord Sylvania is the weakest among us.—”
It was actually easier than the first time.
Take advantage of the muttering and dash forward..
and…….
“Uh, uh……?”
The guy was so startled that he stretched out his hand and grabbed his head, regardless of whether he was swinging his sword or not..
A serious punch to the temple.
What a joke-!
Soon, the guy with the flesh and bones on his head crushed fell to the floor helplessly. This happened just 3 seconds after the duel started..
but…….
“Wow!”
“Next time, crush it like that too.!!”
“Knight crusher! It's a knight crusher.!!”
Even though the duel was over in an instant, the audience erupted in enthusiastic cheers..
It was truly ironic.
‘I can't believe you enjoy it so much while watching people's heads get smashed..’
Isn’t this how you don’t know who the barbarian is?.
