Chapter 208
Episode 208:
The great warrior is glaring at me.
Even though he is not a master, he exudes an aura similar to that of Count Warrug.
Just by looking at it, you can see how strong he is, but that doesn’t make him a master.
It’s just a similar energy, but there’s something fundamentally different about it.
It only makes your body tingle, but cannot break your will like the masters.
His level is top notch.
Although weaker than the Master.
‘Stronger than me.’
Well, even so, if you fight together with Reems, you can win.
By the way, the threat is too harsh.
‘Think about how I can kill you…’
The provocation was quite a severe provocation, so I flinched.
He exuded not only his words but also his energy.
‘I wonder how it is that everyone is so anxious that they can’t show off themselves.’
They say they exude energy in order to understand the other person, but perhaps because I’ve experienced it so many times, I felt irritated rather than heartbroken.
I really need to get stronger quickly, but I’m doing such a ridiculous thing because it makes me look weak.
When I become stronger, I won’t have to face threats like that.
“I know that the great warrior is strong.”
I spoke to him who was still losing his momentum.
I calmly received the momentum and also exuded the momentum.
“Hmm…”
The Daejeon’s brow furrowed as if a stone had been thrown into a calm lake.
The momentum rising in my body was pushing his momentum away.
“…!”
The Daejeon’s face hardened.
His momentum disappeared.
To be precise, I was swallowed up by my momentum and attacked him.
I smiled brightly and lost my momentum.
“So why did you call me?”
I changed my mind.
In the current atmosphere, it seemed like time would just drag on, let alone get to the main topic.
Daejeon said, still not making an impression.
“I’m trying to get help.”
“Help?”
He nods.
Help.
I had no idea what they could ask of me since they were in the South and had no need to worry.
Their ideology was that if you need something, fight for it.
It was quite surprising that he used the word ‘help’ because they rushed in like crazy people to get everything if they needed something.
If I hadn’t heard it myself, I would have thought he was lying.
“You seem surprised that I asked for help.”
“It’s even weirder that I’m not surprised when I know what you guys are like.”
“That’s straightforward.”
I shrugged my shoulders.
I didn’t tell them who they were.
It’s true, but what should I do?
But he nodded, as if he didn’t feel bad about it.
“yes. Anyone who knows us will find it hard to believe that we are asking for help.”
He looks at me as if he understands.
And he keeps saying something different.
I felt like the story would go downhill if I left it like that, so I got straight to the point.
“You know. “The chief has become a master.”
Are all the people here really so clueless?
What would I do if I didn’t know?
“Yeah, I know.”
“Then the story will be quick. I intend to drive out the chieftain.”
“…yes?”
I was dazed for a moment.
Who drives out whom? Is driving out the right word that I know?
I looked at his face to see if I had misheard.
“…crazy.”
He was very calm.
In the first place, it must be strange for someone to make a joke to me, who is just like a stranger.
So you said you meant it, but why?
I couldn’t understand it at all.
‘Why do you feel sorry for him when he is treated enviously even among barbarians?’
Daejeon Temple.
Among barbarians, the word ‘Great Warrior’ has great power.
A being that even the chief cannot treat lightly.
A warrior respected by barbarians.
A warrior who participated in a thousand battles.
Great warriors are treated second only to chieftains, and barbarians ask their opinions before going to war.
To that extent, Daejeon Temple receives great treatment.
To the point where I don’t even think about this.
‘To begin with, they are crazy about battles and treat power like a burden.’
They consider going to war an honorable act.
Conversely, not being able to go to war was a disgrace.
Those who do not have to go to war are cripples with arms or legs cut off, elderly people who are too old to even move, children, and women.
Except them, all barbarians participate in the war.
They don’t need power.
Because it was like a title that naturally followed while fighting a war.
Jeonsajang and Daejeonsa.
That’s exactly the title they want; they don’t want power like chieftain or tribal leader.
Chiefs and tribal leaders could not go to war if they wanted to.
Chiefs and tribal leaders are those who are responsible for the entire barbarian people.
‘The biggest reason is that power is divided among them.’
Daejeonsa is respected by everyone.
In other words, there were people who believed in and followed the Daejeonsa more than the chieftain.
There are five great warriors among the barbarians.
Excluding the barbarians who follow the chief, the forces are divided into five.
The reason they can stick together now is because they have a chief.
The chieftain is the strongest warrior among all barbarians.
The chieftain changed every year through a warrior’s duel, and now that the chieftain has become a master, his position as chieftain can be seen as confirmed until another master appears.
The important thing here is that if a chieftain dies, the barbarians may become divided.
If the chieftain who was holding the center dies, they can no longer be held together.
You can just re-determine the chieftain.
‘I hate gaining power, but I also have strong pride.’
It’s okay to become a chief, but he doesn’t want to admit that he is weaker than others.
If that happens, a major war will break out between them.
‘There’s no way other tribes would just watch that.’
Because the chief knows that, he rarely goes to war.
When they step out, they need solid power.
Unless it’s something like swallowing a red hawk, they don’t come forward.
Anyway, that is why the great warriors who know this do not try to push out the chieftain.
This is because they receive treatment comparable to that of a chief without being pushed out.
I won’t even think about that now that the chief has become a master.
‘What are you thinking? There must be a reason. I’m not really doing this to push you away. Is there a need for a justification for war? In the first place, have they ever started a war with just cause?’
My head hurts.
Since the situation was different from what I expected, I tried to understand the current situation.
What on earth?
Are you really just trying to push the Chiefs out?
Why on earth?
He is truly a master. A man so strong that he seemed like a world superior to those who were already monsters was created.
Your confidence will grow.
That’s why he attacked the red hawk and was sure to win.
Now the only enemies left to them are Elves and Eastons.
Are these people who are crazy about war trying to eliminate the most reliable force in that war?
“It looks like your head is complicated.”
The Great Master looked at me and smiled.
A face that seems to know what I’m thinking.
“Think simply. I hate the chieftain. It would be good for you. “It’s an opportunity to deal with us who seemed like a nuisance.”
The Daejeon Temple looks at me intently, asking if it is so, but I cannot easily answer.
I had a strong feeling that I shouldn’t say anything wrong here.
If you do it wrong, you might end up in a bad place.
At least I need to know the reason.
“What is the reason?”
“What?”
“I don’t understand. Why are you trying to push out your chieftain? “Do you have any grudges?”
“resentment? There is no chieftain who enjoys war as much as the current chieftain. “I like him.”
He shook his head, wondering if that was possible.
I was even more dumbfounded by the answer.
It’s not like there’s any grudge, so I wonder why they’re doing this.
When I looked at his face, I saw that he was smiling as if he was thinking about the war.
So it became more confusing.
“But that’s the problem.”
“…?”
After laughing for a moment, his face hardens and he speaks.
The problem is that there are too many wars.
“What do you think of warriors?”
“….”
he asks.
I didn’t answer. I don’t think he’s asking for an answer.
I just quietly watched his actions.
“Warrior is a struggle. Struggle is what a warrior is all about, and he fights because he is a warrior.”
“….”
“Current Chief? good night. He is a great leader. Since he became Chief, we have made the greatest progress we have ever made. Is that all? For the first time, he took the step to becoming a master that he thought would never come again in his life. “He is our true leader… and an idol.”
“….”
The more I listened, the more I didn’t understand.
If it’s so good, why do you think like that?
“But while I was with him, a thought suddenly occurred to me. He tried to start a war every day. But I wonder what will be left for us when the war is over.”
“….”
“At this rate, we can trample on you bastards and even you.”
I got a little angry at the last word.
Yes, I know that their power has increased explosively.
But that doesn’t mean they can beat us.
They say they have a master, but Serion has multiple masters.
At the very least, it will end when the Grand Wizard, Count Millennium, steps forward.
They may have the advantage in a versus match, but it’s different in a multiplayer match.
If a wide-area magic falls from the sky, how will they block and deal with it?
The reason they have been able to endure until now is because proper power has not arrived in the south.
‘I can’t come down. ‘Because we have to be wary of other kingdoms and empires.’
Each and every one of them possesses legion-level strength. When they move, kingdoms and empires become alert.
The Mercenary King does not belong to one place, and Count Warrug has often come down to the south in the past, so he does not react much.
If Count Millennium moves, there will definitely be restrictions from other kingdoms.
“I don’t want the war to end. But the chieftain wants to conquer all the lands through war.”
“….”
“When the war ends, we can no longer exist.”
I felt like I knew a little bit now.
Why was he like this? He was worried now.
What should I do if the war ends because of the chieftain?
They exist because of war, and that war cannot disappear.
To put it simply, it can be said that this happened because of a difference of opinion with the chieftain.
“So you’re saying you need our power?”
“I guess you understand now.”
My head is pounding.
From my perspective, I couldn’t understand why they were doing something like this for just that reason.
They killed the Master because they didn’t want to lose their job.
‘They’re really crazy people.’
I sighed.
