Bjorn Yandel the Barbarian

Episode 140 Awakening (3)

[Swing].

Unlike other skills, it is a skill that does not require intense imaging because it is just a strong swing.

Whoo-!

This skill did not even have common effects such as light falling on the weapon or a gust of wind blowing out.

When I was playing the game, I was a little dissatisfied with this part.

Skills tend to get fancy and have cool names the higher they go, so why is this skill the only one like this?

I realized the answer today.

‘The ogre was also efficient.’

In reality, it’s not helpful to have effects like that. It would be like exposing only my information to an enemy who is only visible and has a lot of knowledge.

Rather, this is practical.

And as if to prove it.

「Regal Vagos cast [Dark Veil].」

He uses a defense-type skill.

Exactly on what basis this decision was made is unknown.

Maybe you thought that this was enough.

So, he might have decided that it was more reasonable to stick a sword into a vital place while maintaining distance rather than backing down.

But…

Kwajijik!

The 4th grade skill, [Dark Veil], is shattered as soon as it touches my mace without lasting even one second.

It was natural.

Even though it may not have such grandiose names as [Earth Tremor] or [Incarnation’s Fury], [Swing] is an attack skill that belongs to the upper tier even at level 3.

“……!”

Only then did he realize the situation and twist his body.

If that’s the case, you should have avoided it in the first place.

Poo-!

It wasn’t the top of the head that I was aiming for, but my mace succeeded in landing it on his shoulder.

A guy who hurriedly widened the distance with a short moan.

Tadat.

The dislocated shoulder is drooping to the point of deformity.

He quickly puts the sword in his mouth and moves his free hand into his pocket.

Maybe it’s a subspace.

What you want to take out must be a potion.

‘Who do you see as an idiot?’

I have no intention of giving myself time to recover.

“Dwalky! Use voice control.”

First of all, since a person is the opponent, I turned on the team voice and ran towards him.

And quickly placed the order.

“Hikurod Rotmiller! You two protect Dwalki. Misha, you stay close behind me!”

Of course, there is no time to speak at length right away, so first, take the basic formation again.

He instructed the details step by step.

Fortunately, the colleagues accepted their respective missions without any further comment.

It started with Dwalkie.

Whoo-!

The moment he evaded my mace with Minka-like movements.

Curse magic seeps into his body.

「Rioll Warb Dwalki cast 9th grade curse magic [Slowdown].」

In fact, it is safe to say that Dwalkie can do enough for one person with just this.

To put it bluntly, that guy is specialized in agility.

“Something like worms…!”

He did not hide his anger and showed full force.

From [Advanced Acceleration] to [Afterimage], which is a rank 5 integer.

The agility value would have increased instantaneously.

Tadat-!

Perhaps because of her reduced cognitive ability, her eyes feel sore just by following her movements.

‘The stat correction took a slowdown, but this much.’

I thought of him as a monster again, but I calmly did what I had to do.

‘Seeing that his arm isn’t getting better, it doesn’t seem like there are any regeneration type essences or number items.’

Narrow the number of cases based on newly acquired information.

And I focus on the role assigned to me.

Oh, of course, my role is simple.

Slow-! Kakak puuk!

The middle of the aisle is blocked, and it is excitingly beaten.

“Abandon the thought of dying gracefully.”

He blows cold arsenic at me.

Certainly, it was impossible to dodge or avoid it with my agility level because it displayed all its strength. Blocking Akze’s longsword with a shield would have been virtually meaningless.

So it’s just the result of the body.

Chii Iik-!

In an instant, the entire body is ovulated, and acidic blood flows out through the open skin.

Because of the disappearance of the vampire essence, there was nothing better than leaving it alone like before.

But this is also not a problem.

When have your teeth been intact to chew and swallow your enemies?

Clink!

Rotmiller, who was holding back the enemy with a crossbow, checked my condition in real time and threw a potion from the [Treasure Warehouse].

「The body is regenerated due to the recovery (medium) effect.」

A so-called barbarian introductory mode.

‘It’s been a while since I’ve done this.’

Unlike me, who was full of strange emotions, the young emotion in his eyes was distrust.

Just by checking my expression, did he realize that I wasn’t completely incapable of pain?

He mumbles like it’s absurd.

“……Crazy bastard.”

Even though he must have been in and out of the labyrinth for a long time, he hadn’t encountered a bastard like me yet.

‘Somehow I got rave reviews.’

Of course, the answer is Mace.

Whoo!

As he nimbly dodges, the dwarf continues to support.

“Hikurod Murad cast [Lightning].”

“Hikurod Murad cast [Discharge].”

An electric orb that was exquisitely shot when it floated into the air.

He stepped on the wall and jumped again to avoid it.

But it wasn’t too bad.

In the first place, this is not the true role of a dwarf.

There were only three things I asked the dwarf to do.

“What do you think will change if the worms gather?”

Use ‘Light Discharge’ to assist from a distance.

Protect Dwalki in case of an unexpected situation.

And…

「The Regal Vagos cast [Horror Imprint].」

Use the item according to the timing.

「Hikurod Murad used the [Guardian’s Wrist Guards].」

The ability of Nightmare, a 4th grade monster, [Horror Imprint].

A skill that temporarily instills strong fear in the enemy and returns it as a body value equal to the size.

「It pushes back enemies strongly and temporarily becomes immune to all harmful effects applied to allies.」

Before the skill can be used properly, a gust of wind blows and your mind is refreshed.

As expected, ‘Guardian of Balance’ was not released.

That’s not a detrimental effect.

“Behel—laaaaa!”

He rushes towards the one pushed back, using [Wild Eruption] as well.

And take down the mace.

Whoo-!

[Swing] was not used.

Because it is clear that I will avoid it anyway.

Tadat-!

The guy who twists his body sideways and swings his sword at me.

But at that time, Misha, who was sitting close behind me, aims for his side.

Fu-wook!

The blade was shallow but surely dug into the skin.

He flinched and immediately aimed at Misha, but Misha quickly moved and hid behind me.

‘nice.’

Moves exactly as I expected.

The guy gritted his teeth and chanted.

“You climb without even knowing the subject.”

Looking at the rave reviews again, it seems fortunate that there are no other problems with my tactics.

Therefore, the status quo was maintained.

「The body is regenerated due to the (medium) recovery effect.」

I took on the role of a meat shield.

Dwalki Rotmiller Dwarf is a ranged support.

And Misha’s getting electrocuted or avoiding my attacks, etc. Whenever there is a gap, it pops out and stabs the sword.

Kakak seokkeok puuk!

Damage that builds up steadily as the battle drags on.

“You guys don’t even think about going back alive.”

After all, he also used essences and other number items unknown to the city.

But nothing changed.

The frequency of using potions increased, but it was not enough to turn the tide of battle.

Only the mouth survives.

‘……Anyway, it was level 9 after all.’

Its nine essences have been revealed.

There was only one known level 3 essence, which was the end.

Well, when it comes to level 3, it’s not something that can be easily obtained even on the 9th floor, so is it natural?

“Bjorn! And that shiny blade is right!!”

Slowly, I sensed that the time had come for a match.

After about 30 minutes of battle, all the cards he had were confirmed. It is also possible for him to step back for a while and come back with the priest.

That’s why…

‘Now.’

Now that the battle has become longer and you have gotten used to the current situation.

“……!”

Dash with all your might and stretch out your hand.

Tadat.

He backed away a bit and opened up some distance.

It wasn’t much different from the psychopath of the example.

If you want to get used to it, move only as much as you need.

Is this a habit only for the strong?

Thank you very much.

「The character has cast [Giant].」

Arms lengthened accordingly as the body grew.

Without letting go, I grabbed his neck.

“……!”

There was an urgency to see on his face for the first time.

Well, you probably didn’t know that [Giantness] existed, because I hadn’t been using it all this time.

It feels like all the hard work has been paid off.

‘It’s a red light.’

A red jewel was emitting light from his traffic light ring.

Therefore,

I raised my mace and cried out impatiently.

“Behel—laaaaaaaa!!!”

for just one chance.

A number of conversions that have been waiting for the time in silence.

From today, that will be my super special move.

It’s called a wild eruption, and as much as you can in a gigantic state whose stats have been blown up—

‘swing.’

I hit the mace at the guy’s head with all my might. I had the certainty that if I hit this one shot, everything would be over.

so I could see

“Naundez Aunzo.”

All the changes that took place the moment his lips opened.

“The character’s soul power is insufficient

.

”

In addition, the eye level drops in an instant and the field of view narrows.

Quaang!

Mace swung normally and hit the floor.

“Kehehe.”

At some point, the guy who got out of my grasp vomited up bloody vomit. And while I was watching this, I only thought of one thing.

this damn bastard

What have you been doing?

The answer came quickly.

‘Nimiral.’

A unique skill that all dragon races are born with.

It was known that he could never use it because of the ‘dragon’s curse’.

「Regal Vagos cast [Dragon Word: Soul Silence].」

It was the Dragon Word.

***

‘Guardians of Balance’.

This field effect equalizes the sum of the basic stats.

But in the meantime, you have to fight one-on-one.

One level 4 essence was sealed.

The Akzee Longsword, which was the most difficult, came up with a strategy thanks to the ogre essence, and he generously used various consumable items obtained from the hidden room.

And even a special move aimed at the decisive timing.

Even a ninth-floor explorer thought that this was enough to defeat them.

very pitifully.

Despair can come to anyone at any time.

In short, getting a rare disease at a young age when he was in full swing. It’s like having an accident while you’re on your way to play and leaving someone important to you.

There was also a big fire in the house of a relative who was living on top of it.

My mother, who said she would be with me tomorrow, suddenly disappeared.

All of these things can happen in real life.

without any notice.

whether it’s raining or sunny.

Unknowingly.

It has the quality of going to someone.

just like this moment

“Two.”

The guy spits bloody spit on the floor.

And pick up the Akje longsword that fell on the ground.

Just…….

Pachichichit-!

As if rejecting his touch, sparks flew from the sword.

The guy frowned and forcibly drew the sword and put it into the subspace.

And…….

turbug.

It slowly walked towards us.

I lifted the mace with difficulty.

The mace, which had felt as light as a feather a moment ago, was as heavy as an iron bar.

Turbuck.

Information about this phenomenon popped into my head without a lot to wrap my head around.

「The character has fallen into a state of soul exhaustion.」

Soul exhaustion.

Abnormal condition that occurs when soul power drops to 0%.

I can count on my hands the number of times I’ve been caught by this in-game. Even if you use your skills wildly, your soul power will not drop to 0%.

“All stats temporarily decrease by 70%.”

I realized.

“Is everyone suddenly quiet?”

New Plan A is a failure.

And the cost…

Well, you’ll find out by now.

Poo-!

The new type is greatly pushed back by his kicking.

Although I blocked it with both arms, the shock resonated to my bones.

“Bjorn…!”

Misha hurriedly brandished a knife and rushed at it, but it was too short to reach him.

Like a martial arts master, he wrapped his arm around Misha’s wrist and stole the sword.

And…

“a piece of crap.”

He kicked Misha in the stomach and blew it far away.

A crossbow shot by Rotmiller just in time?

Before reaching it, it was cut by the sword and split in two.

“Just because of these little things…”

he murmurs coldly as he looks at us.

I got goosebumps at that word and my heart beat wildly as if it was out of order.

However, in the midst of this, as usual, the head combined the given clues.

“Perhaps you don’t know.”

The guy isn’t even in good shape.

I vomited blood earlier. Anyway, if he was 100%, my arm should have been broken.

From what I can see, it seems that I am in a situation where I can’t even use a sword.

“How many times have I put myself on the ground right now?”

There are many positive aspects.

But even so, it won’t compare to us.

“Miss Misha! Come to your senses!”

I heard a crying voice from behind, and he took one more step towards me.

“Don’t expect a barbarian to die. Even death won’t be able to save you.”

It’s not just a scare comment.

I know what the only level 3 essence he has is.

Turbuck –

The situation is hopeless indeed.

What should I do?

At this rate, it would be difficult to escape.

It was at that moment that my head was filled with only those thoughts.

「Leol Warb Dwalki cast the 8th grade offensive magic [Ice Spear].」 An

ice spear with the same power as before is fired.

two of them too.

With the ‘orbit adjustment’ completed.

Fish Woo Woo!

The guy hurriedly twisted his body.

And I barely pushed the other one away with my sword and avoided it. Normally, I would have blocked it with [Dark Veil] or easily smashed it with my sword.

It was so hard to block the magic.

“……!”

In this I realized

I don’t understand why I didn’t think of this right away, but…

Wizards don’t use soul power.

In other words, the debuff caused by soul exhaustion did not occur.

That’s what it means.

“Yeah, I’ll have to kill you first.”

Dwalki must be protected.

“Everyone, wake up!!!”

if you want to live
