Bjorn Yandel the Barbarian

Episode 120 Dark clouds (4)

An office with a heavy scent of wood.

Nile Urban, the 7th region leader of the Explorers Guild, smiled.

It’s because I remembered something my daughter said a while ago.

[I don’t intend to live the rest of my life as my father’s doll.]

The first time the prison break happened.

He noticed his daughter’s disturbing movements.

That’s because there was no reason for the branch manager and the two of them to be alone.

I couldn’t help but investigate this in earnest and found out that my daughter was secretly establishing a position within the guild.

‘A woman has a woman’s life.’

It was quite plausible for a one-time rebellion.

Even though I thought it was a headache, I felt happy inside at the thought that it was my daughter.

But…

‘I told you to be careful with your breathing.’

Even such ambition can be viewed as cute because the target is his daughter.

‘It looks like he chose my daughter after all.’

Bjorn Yandel.

A barbarian who made up his mind to correct his habit one day, but has grown tremendously in a short period of time.

The branch manager tried to contact him today.

I still don’t know what my daughter intends to do with the barbarian. However, it became clear that the branch manager had passed on to his daughter.

That fact made me very uncomfortable.

‘You dare to rebel against me.’

It’s not like I can’t understand why the branch manager made that choice.

He’s already out of sight, and he’s already decided who to take his place when he takes off his clothes. Since he knew that too, he must have tried to grab at least a rotten rope.

However, understanding and forgiveness are completely different words.

‘I’ll have to deal with both of them this time.’

Niall Urbans sipped tea and his eyes lit up.

Originally, the barbarian was intended to be left alone.

I shuddered when I thought of the humiliation at that time, but I had built my own position in a few months.

There was no reason to increase one enemy.

But now things have changed.

There must have been a reason why the smart daughter was trying to contact the barbarian.

‘…Besides, strangely, it keeps bothering me.’

Nile Urbans made a decision.

If there is something that bothers you, just remove it.

before turning it into a bigger problem later.

Kwa Kwa Kwa Aang-!

How long has it been since you left the Explorers Guild?

On the way back to the lodging, the dry sky thunders and rain pours down.

‘Nimiral.’

Dark clouds covered the sky at some point.

I was just about to get hit and go, but thinking it might be a shower, I entered a nearby restaurant.

It was time to eat a meal anyway, so I decided to watch the progress for a while while eating.

“The meal you ordered is here.”

Grilled meat and pumpkin stew and rye bread.

The inside is quite warm and reassuringly warm, but somehow it feels lacking.

It’s not like I went to a cheap restaurant that costs 300 stone per meal like before.

‘Certainly… Misha cooks the meat well.’

I ordered an additional bottle of rum, thinking that when I go out tomorrow, I will buy some meat and have it grilled.

I was thinking of killing time until the rain stopped, or at least calmed down a bit.

I have to go back anyway so Misha won’t be there either.

‘Ah, is he still going to be there because of the rain?’

As I drink alone with the sound of rain as a snack, my thoughts run wild.

It seems like not long ago when I ate stone bread while being careful of goblin traps, but it’s already been half a year.

‘Pajeon makgeolli…isn’t there a place that sells it?’

The thought of wanting to go home has faded a lot.

I just got used to everything.

The creaky bed, the small single room with one bathroom, and the daily life of laughing and chatting with colleagues while drinking cheap beer.

‘I’ve changed a lot too.’

I could do it all day if I had to point out the shittiest things about this world. But if you ask me if I’ve never been happy with that…

At first, my goal was to survive, but I felt the joy of being a gamer as I grew up.

It wasn’t bad to flirt with colleagues and laugh and talk.

It felt a bit awkward.

‘If I hadn’t been called here, I’d probably still be playing games alone in the corner of the room.’

Lee Han-soo, a 29-year-old office worker, had an extremely narrow relationship. Of course, there were no complaints or inconveniences.

I was steadily preparing for my retirement, and I was able to live alone without relying on others.

Unlike this world where colleagues are forced.

‘Seeing that I’m thinking like this… I guess I’ve become attached to it too.’

I took a sip of the rum, which had an unnecessarily sweet aftertaste.

Dwalkie Rotmiller dwarf.

When I think of these three, my taste buds get bitter.

‘If I want to go to the upper floors, I’ll have no choice but to form a new team.’

Starting from the 5th floor, the current members are not enough.

Should I say that the growth limit is clearly visible?

First of all, Dwalki has a serious problem that he is not from the Mage Tower, and his magical power is naturally low.

‘I’m learning new magic right now, but it can be said that I can hardly use 6th grade spells.’

Not to mention Rotmiller.

It is only necessary to find the way on the lower floors, but on the upper floors, a high level of combat power is required even for seekers.

That’s because the maximum number of people in a party is five.

‘I don’t know if that man awakens as a guide. Otherwise, the 4th floor would be the limit.’

Of course, unlike these two, the dwarf would be able to play an active role in the upper floors as long as the equipment is well matched.

But you don’t have to have two tanks on your team.

‘……If Misha’s specs go up a bit, I’ll have to form a new team.’

Actually, it was something I had been thinking about for a long time, but I finally made up my mind.

The troll war that took place this time had a big effect.

I will keep going upstairs and that goal cannot be achieved with them.

It may seem harsh, but it is also a decision for them.

The upper floors are teeming with monsters worse than trolls.

It’s better not to expect a repeat of being lucky enough to survive like this time—

“Yandel?”

uh what is this all of a sudden

I turned my head at the sound of calling me, and there was someone I didn’t expect at all.

Mr Bear.

No, so…

“Urakburak?”

“…It’s Urikfried. If it’s difficult to pronounce, you can just call him Abman.”

“Then do it that way.”

The macho-looking Mr. Bear sat across from me without asking permission, perhaps to pay for his face.

It’s something I usually do often, so I didn’t feel particularly offended.

“I didn’t expect you to come as a guest.”

“customer?”

“Oh, I didn’t mention that. This is my wife’s shop.”

It’s the boss…….

I didn’t know about it, but it wasn’t something to be surprised or surprised. If you are a level 5 explorer, you should have enough money to open a shop.

If you are surprised, you should be surprised in another part.

“Did the guy with a wife go into the labyrinth alone?”

“It’s because the store is in the red these days. Shouldn’t I also work hard to earn?”

well then i have nothing to say

It’s not something I’m fussing over.

“Anyway, it’s a strange coincidence that you’re the owner of the place you came to escape from the rain.”

“It’s a coincidence that’s not enough to say it’s amazing. Thanks to you, I’m confident, Bjorn Yandel.”

“Are you sure?”

Mr. Bear replied as if it was nothing.

“Will you put me on your team?”

huh? What else is this?

***

Do you suddenly want to be accepted as a colleague?

It was an unexpected topic, but after hearing it, I was convinced. From Mr. Bear’s point of view, I was a proven explorer.

“If you can save someone you don’t know in that situation, you won’t hit the back of the head.”

Although he asked for 5 million stones, it seemed good that he saved himself by using even the finest potions in the cracks that were blocked from the outside world.

‘……This is what happens again.’

Tank support summons and strong ranged physical damage.

It was clear that Mr. Bear would do his part without difficulty even on the 5th floor or higher.

But…

“I must have misunderstood something. I only went in separately this time, but there is a fixed team.”

I roundly declined his offer.

For the time being, I plan to be at a Dwalkie party, but I can’t leave out other people to include this man.

Unexpectedly, Mr. Bear nodded meekly.

“If that’s the case. We’ll talk about what we talked about today later when the seat is vacant or you leave the team.”

“Is the seat empty?”

“You know what I mean?”

With Mr. Bear’s meaningful eyes, the colleague’s case came to an end. After that, we had a brief conversation about when to pay back the 5 million stones.

“I have put some equipment that I haven’t used yet on the exchange, so I’ll be able to give it to you on the promised date.”

Looking at the inside of the store where only flies fly, my heart feels heavy, but…

The conversation ended with 5 million stones to be exchanged for collateral by meeting again here in 10 days.

“Then see you then.”

“Wear this and go. It will suit you too.”

It didn’t look like the rain would stop even if I waited longer, so I borrowed a raincoat from Mr. Bear and headed to the inn.

Shootaaaaaaaaaaaaa –

heavy rain as if some kind of typhoon came.

After running through the strangely deserted streets, I soon arrived at the inn.

But what else is this?

“Oh, Bjorn is here? Here’s your guest.”

“Aaaaaaaaaaaaa! Mister…!!”

An unexpected encounter was waiting for me, like raindrops on a sunny day.

***

Since that incident 10 years ago, I have lived in moderation in many things.

So I thought I was confident in being patient.

At least until today.

“If you coveted someone else’s, wouldn’t you deserve to be punished?”

Erwen froze at the thought that had come out of his mouth without even realizing it.

“Hmm? You… you’re tougher than I thought, right?”

Fortunately, the other side didn’t seem to notice the true meaning of what

I just said… ‘What the hell did I say…’

Strictly speaking, it wasn’t stolen either.

Uncle is not a thing.

Also, it was she herself who made the choice to leave her uncle’s side and be with her sister.

But what is this feeling?

hard.

Strangely, hostility springs up.

Can I win if I fight?

There is myself who inadvertently thinks like that and takes care of the other person.

“Come to think of it, we don’t even know each other’s names. I’m Mischa Karlstein.”

“……Erwen Fornacci di Tercia.”

“Wow, your name is pretty too… Nice to meet you, Erwen.”

“Yes……”

I received a handshake while hiding my reluctance.

And we sat and talked.

I have no desire to get close to her, but I have a question for you.

“Mr. Karlstein, are you dating anyone?”

“Fellowship… don’t say anything strange. Bjorn and I

are just colleagues!” “Hmm, I see.”

For some reason, I felt like my anger was

waning

.

sorry. You said that you washed together earlier, so I was mistaken.”

“What do you mean by washing together? I just rented a bathroom for a while.”

“You must be renting a bathroom in an alien man’s room,

so the dorm is very far from here

?” ”

At that, Erwen’s eyebrows curled.

It may not be the old man, but it was clear that this woman had sly thoughts.

Enough to use such a vulgar trick.

” So, how do you know Bjorn?”

Maybe he wanted to divert the topic from himself?

This time, the other side asked a question.

Erwen answered honestly.

“I was a colleague with the man.”

“Ehh? mister……? Bjorn is still only 20 years old…”

“Ah, it’s like a nickname between me and the man, so you don’t have to worry about it.”

“A nickname…?”

“Do you have any problems? ?”

He tilted his head casually, and the beast woman smiled awkwardly.

“No. problem? I guess it could be Nyaha!”

His mouth was smiling, but his tail was wagging the bedspread as if he was in a bad mood.

Seeing that, Erwen felt a strange sense of victory.

Until an unexpected counterattack continued.

“Your uncle and I are a bit special. . First of all, he was my first mate, and my first returner was—”

“Heh, but isn’t that only meaningful to you?”

“…Yes?

” I’ve never heard anything about it. Nyaha!”

The beast woman smiled brightly and thrust a dagger into her heart. Erwen couldn’t hide her embarrassment at the sudden change in attitude.

But instinctively, she knew one thing.

“You said Erwen, right? It’s not like you can’t see what you’re doing if you want to see it as cute. By the way… I wouldn’t be annoyed if you showed such hostility and treat people like idiots, right?”

Misha Karlstein.

It was only natural that I felt hostility as soon as I saw this woman.

“Um, but thanks for one thing. Thanks to you, I don’t think I’ll get confused anymore.”

“Hey, don’t you get confused?”

“Well, don’t you already know what I mean?”

This woman is an enemy
