Bjorn Yandel the Barbarian

An uninvited guest who broke through the locked door.

“…….”

There were two options.

The first is to get angry with ‘words’ while asking why he sneaked in.

And the second one…

“… I hope you came prepared to die.”

To be angry with ‘whole body’.

As an ordinary barbarian, he didn’t have to think long about what the right attitude would be to treat an uninvited guest.

Kwak-Ak –

Put more strength into the hand that gripped the uninvited guest’s neck.

Is this a normal reaction?

A barbarian dealing with an ‘assassin’.

“Did the Marquis order you to kill me?”

“……Kike!”

At my question, the guy desperately let out a sound.

“…That’s…! Let’s talk about it for a minute—”

It’s obvious what you’re talking about.

I guess he didn’t mean to kill.

In fact, that would be true.

When I opened my eyes, I wasn’t even holding a weapon.

If he really wanted to kill me, the Marquis had many better cards than this.

I do not deny that fact.

But…

“I have no conversations with the guy who tried to kill me.”

But after hearing that, you can’t play the game, can you?

so get some sleep

You will receive the reward for this work from your father.

Kwak-

Ak- I put more power into my grip and block even the slightest space where sound leaks out, then put on a piece of equipment like this and put a fist into the abdomen of the guy who didn’t come.

Poo-!

His back curled up like a shrimp with a moderate sense of impact.

“Cheuk-!”

Oh, don’t you pass out after being hit by this?

Then one more.

Poo-!

“Cheuk-!”

Still, it’s because he’s a knight, so he’s holding up well.

Should I blow off the jawline too?

When I tried to change the hitting point upwards with that thought.

“Keep it off-!”

He pulled out a knife from his waist as if he felt a threat to his life.

A knife similar in size to the dagger I usually use to cut and eat beef jerky. However, the size of the sword in the knight’s hand is meaningless.

Woo-woo-!

A blue aura that instantly increases in size using a sword as a medium.

Whiik-!

Soon, the dagger that emitted an aura rushes like lightning and aims at my wrist. It seems that he decided to cut off the whole thing because he couldn’t free his hand from his neck…

It’s not something I can’t understand.

Most of the knights were a tribe that lived with the mindset that if they got in the way, just cut them down.

「The character has cast [Iron Fortress]」 「The effect of [Evolutionary

Envelope

] is increased by 1.5 times」

But…

Kagak-

The aura that gets stuck on the bones after painstakingly slicing through the skin.

“……!”

The guy’s eyes widened.

His expression was no different from the blood knight he had encountered on the Dark Continent the other day.

why the heck isn’t it beige?

These bastards, who must have eaten raw all their lives using auras, do not easily understand this phenomenon.

Of course, it’s not something I’d care about.

“I thought you were hiding a weapon.”

An arm with blood dripping from the gaping skin.

However, I didn’t move and said while still holding on to his neck.

“As expected, you’re an assassin.”

The boy shook his head violently and couldn’t deny it.

No, I tried to do that, but failed.

It’s because his strength level wasn’t enough to shake the neck in my hand.

I just opened my eyes that were already wide open.

Whoo-!

Until the moment when a huge fist crushes the bones in his face.

Kwajik-

So let’s go.

***

Grabbing the drooping marquise’s son by the back of his neck, he ran out of the room.

Unfortunately, there is a problem here.

‘What should I do to meet the Marquis?’

I don’t know where the Marquis is.

That’s why it’s hard to wake him up and ask him.

drip drip

I want to meet the Marquis before the wound on Ha’s wrist heals naturally

.

Isn’t there a saying that if your body is good, your head doesn’t have to suffer.

‘I’ll take care of it once I go out.’

The place I am currently staying is an annex located to the east of the main building.

Walk down the empty hallway and head towards the stairs.

The servants who had been seen everywhere until entering the room were nowhere to be seen.

It means that access was blocked in advance before sending my son.

‘Well, the first floor is still fine.’

The entrance lobby on the 1st floor is brightly lit even at night.

Even though no one was watching, one servant who was waiting with an upright posture sincerely found me and screamed.

“Kyaaah-!”

What is a biometric alarm like?

“What a fuss!”

At the sound of the servant’s screams, the tightly closed gate opened wide, and the knights who were on guard at night entered the room.

The total number is four.

“Leechen Shuitz…! What are you doing! Who’s the guy caught in your hand!”

Unfortunately, they did not recognize the young master.

Um, did you not want to hit me in the face?

“Looking at the thread on his belt, he seems to be one of our marquess.”

“No matter how much you say you’re a guest of the Marquis, it looks like you’ll be safe even after doing this!”

“Quickly put him down and surrender!”

As many as four knights surrounded me, spraying aura on their swords.

A typical explorer would have sweat dripping down his back and shaking his hands and feet.

They probably know best about that kind of situation.

So, it must be something like that.

“I’ll tell you one last time. Please surrender and wait for the Marquis’ disposition.”

“What if you don’t like it?”

“…the only thing I can do is exercise my skills.”

“Yes? Try it then.”

When I answered with a shrug of my shoulders at the words that were almost like a final notification, the guys frowned.

As if I had made a foolish choice.

Took.

I dropped my son, who was holding onto the floor, and lifted the demon grinder I had taken out of the subspace.

and that moment.

Tadat.

The four knights, who exchanged signals with glances at each other, attacked from all sides at once.

Thank you very much.

cooong.

A whirlpool that bloomed as soon as you hit the ground with your foot.

「The character has cast [Eye of the Storm].」

I deliberately did not associate it with [Transcendence].

In a battle with many, the normal state is much more effective.

Whii-i-i-i-!

The guys who entered within a radius of 5m are swept away by the strong wind and pulled towards me.

Of course, even in the midst of that, they swung their swords.

As always, the knight’s blow easily passed through the heavy armor worn on the body and cut through flesh and bone without resistance.

“Aaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!”

However, I ignored the defense and swung the Demon Grinder again and again.

Diltan is a normal Dilgyo method as a barbarian.

Assuming that they exchange each other equally.

In the end, I am convinced that the one who benefits is me.

Whit.

The guy who rushed in from the front slashed his sword.

However, I did not distribute my moves between blocking and dodging. The blade is stuck down to the

collarbone,

no matter how hard it was.

Kwajik-!

He paid it back by driving a hammer through his temple.

and that moment.

Suddenly –

the guy who rushed in from the left side cut my ankle.

‘It touches the Achilles tendon in a mean way.’

I almost lost my center of gravity for a moment, but my tendon wasn’t seriously damaged.

Therefore…….

Ji profit.

I quickly balanced on my other foot and kicked it in the face like a soccer ball.

Aaaaaang-!

The one who flies far away and locks herself in the pillars of the mansion.

Then there was a dull impact sound from behind.

Kak-!

Yes, you were stabbed, not cut.

「75% damage reduction rate from penetrating wounds.」

Somehow, I didn’t even feel the pain.

“What the heck are you…”

What is this again.

I am opening my mouth to say something in this situation.

Kwajik-!

He turned around and blew his chin with his elbow.

There is only one guy left like that.

“Aww!”

He was slashing my throat with his hideous golden aura, as if to avenge his colleague.

‘My throat is sensitive.’

This time, there was nothing that would consume a lot of movement, so I raised my left arm and blocked it with my shield.

And…

“…Keah!”

He vigorously kicked the stomach with his foot.

Shaaaaaaa.

It was just at that time that the vortex died down as its duration expired.

“…….”

The hall became quiet before I knew it.

They exchanged each other fairly evenly, but it was clear who the winner of the deal was.

Except for some scratches, this one was perfectly fine, while the other was already crawling on the floor.

“Keouuk…!”

There are still two remaining conscious.

I don’t know who kicked it last, but I thought the guy who hit the temple in anger might have died.

‘Did I use a defense before getting hit?’

Still, the knight’s gait as he staggered toward the open gate, as if the damage to his head had been considerable, looked pitiful.

“Give support…….”

Maybe it’s because he’s a knight, but he has a sense of work.

I was quite impressed with that sense of responsibility, but I didn’t want to get too far away from it, so I pulled it with [Transcendence] and [Vortex], and then put honey chestnuts on its head to stun it.

‘Then we can ask him where the Marquis is…’

Soon after, I crouched down and pulled the head of the knight who had been kicked in the stomach earlier to make him look at me.

“I have a question—”

“Tweet!

……Did this bastard go round?

Bloody phlegm was always in the position to spit out, so I felt very dirty, but I held back and asked again.

“Where is the Marquis?

“Eventually you will follow me too.”

no, who killed him?

It’s absurd, but I don’t think he’ll answer that he’s asking, seeing as he’s spitting out curse words with eyes that have already given up.

Therefore…

Quaang-!

After putting a chestnut on the top of his head, he continued to worry.

‘What should I do anyway? Why don’t you go outside?’

Well, I guess there are wizards out there.

In the first place, I don’t want to grow more work here.

It would be nice to be able to share a private conversation only with the Marquis, but

would I rather just wait until my son wakes up?

Swoop.

As many thoughts passed through my mind, I felt a presence through the wide open gate.

I just raised my head to check the spot and slowly stood up.

“……You don’t need to go looking for it.”

The Marquis was there.

***

The Marquis was wearing the same everyday clothes as when he saw him during the day.

It means you didn’t go to bed.

Well, it could have been that I was awake because I was busy with work, but…….

Well, what about the truth?

I think it’s reasonable to think that it appeared after waiting for cancer alone.

As well as the swarming troops beside him.

Swoop.

As I stood up, the woman next to the Marquis put her hand on the handle of the sword.

“It’s okay, so you can stay.”

“…yes.”

An escort who, at the direction of the Marquis, immediately let go of the sword.

I watched the escort closely.

First off, that woman wasn’t a knight.

That’s because Aurors are the exclusive property of humans.

‘The dragon race.’

After confirming that her pupils had the characteristics of a dragon race, I turned my attention to the equipment.

And…

‘Nimiral.’

The escort realized what kind of sword was on his waist.

‘No. 19 Iggenis Demon Dragon Sword.’

A transmutation longsword that greatly amplifies physical damage and can convert physical damage to magic damage depending on the situation.

Now that the exorcism setting has not been completed, it is safe to say that sword is my counter weapon.

‘I’ve never heard of a guy like this…….’

If equipment follows skills, he must be one of the strongest players in this city. In the first place, it is safe to say that no one is weak among the dragon race.

“…….”

A brief moment of silence arose as we were examining the situation.

The first to speak was the Marquis.

“Would you like to move for a while?”

“How can I trust you?”

“Hmm, then let me just clean them up.”

After a slight nod of the head, the Marquis winked at him, and the knights next to him collected their comrades and went back.

And…

“Let everyone get out of the mansion except for Miss Labyen.”

The Marquis took all of his troops away from the mansion.

The only thing left now is the dragon woman next to him.

The Marquis didn’t hesitate to say my real name even though there was a Dragon race escort in place.

“Baron Yandel.”

“…….”

“I know why you did this. You must have misunderstood.”

Misunderstanding……

But from the point of view of the Marquis, it must have been absurd.

I’m not an evil spirit, so even if I woke up midway, I wouldn’t have known that the situation would develop this way.

Even in the middle of his mansion.

Of course, I have no reason to be considerate of such a situation.

“I sent an assassin at night and misunderstood. You have a thick face.”

“So that’s a misunderstanding. I just wanted to confirm whether you’re a demon or not.”

“……An evil spirit?”

I had guessed the Marquis’ intentions for a long time, but pretended not to know.

Oh, is it natural to mix irritation here?

“…Are you saying you suspected me of being an evil spirit?”

A question that clearly revealed hostility.

At this, the Marquis nodded his head gravely.

“Isn’t it better to be sure of everything? As you’ve probably heard, demons are dragged to meetings every fifteen days. And during that time, you’re completely defenseless. I swear, I’ve been meaning to check whether you’re awake or not.”

“…so?”

“Confirmation is complete. You are not a demon.”

At that, I took a deep breath.

Isn’t that the biggest goal among the reasons for doing this job?

“Then why did you send your son?”

“That’s… because I thought it wouldn’t be a problem even if you woke up.”

“More details.”

“First of all, I didn’t know you would make such a fuss. And secondly, I thought he would be able to cope with the situation well.”

To put it simply, it means that I thought that if it was my son’s level, he would be able to subdue me even in the event of an unfortunate incident.

“Didn’t you think that I could die on the spot? He must be your only son?”

“It only grows weaker if it’s wrapped around inside.”

Yes, that’s your educational policy.

There are some parts that are a little doubtful, but now I’m somewhat convinced.

“Okay then, if the misunderstanding is resolved—”

“Just because the misunderstanding is resolved doesn’t mean the resentment will go away. Not all misunderstandings have been resolved in the first place.”

“……?”

When I stopped talking, the Marquis looked at me with a frown.

Do you think I won’t be able to say anything then?

“Do you see this wound?”

I held out the wound on my already half-healed wrist so that I could see it clearly.

“It’s a wound caused by your son’s naemi attacking me earlier.”

“……A surprise attack?”

“I was trying to talk, but he brandished a knife first.”

“It was natural for you to misunderstand that such a thing had happened. I will firmly warn him.”

“What about my damage?”

I didn’t just stop at my wrists, but also held out the injuries I had suffered while fighting the four knights earlier.

It was a very minor injury compared to the knights who had been beaten.

However, the Marquis gave me the answer I was looking for even though she let out a blank laugh.

“It was our mistake, so let’s find an agreement that you’ll be satisfied with.”

Okay, this would be a decent reward.

“Then, would you like to talk about the second condition that I was going to tell you tomorrow morning?”

“good night.”

When I nodded, the Yongin escort next to me naturally pulled out a chair from the subspace.

A chair that looks expensive and is as comfortable as it looks.

Heh, did you put a chair like that in the subordinate space?

What nobles are…

“I’m getting older and I’m getting less comfortable. Oh, do you need a place to sit too?”

“Not required.”

“I’m glad that’s the case.”

“So what’s the second condition?”

There was no reason to have a longer conversation, so we got straight to the point.

If the first thing I asked for in return for my status was to go to war.

What was the second one?

“Before I talk about that, I want to confirm one more thing.”

The Marquis smirkingly avoided answering and exercised the right to ask questions.

Ha, it’s okay to say I don’t like it here.

“Try it.”

After permission was granted, the Marquis made a rather unexpected introduction.

“My son is also a son, but the four knights you dealt with earlier belonged to the very talented axis within the family.”

did you?

It all boils down before I even see the skill, so even if I say that, it doesn’t feel real.

“so?”

“I want you to ask straight forward.”

Soon after, the Marquis asked me.

“How strong are you?”

It was a bit of an odd question, but it made sense when you think about it.

Just because I was a marquis, he couldn’t have known my exact skills.

He must have only intended to use my reputation for war.

“Hmm, since there is no answer, it must have been a difficult question?”

“Not at all.”

It is more accurate to say that it is an ambiguous question rather than a difficult question.

How would you describe the strength of a person?

As relative as time is, it needs a comparison target, just like a person’s strength.

For example…

“That woman.”

As I stared at the Dragon race escort, the Marquis gave a slightly surprised look.

“Does that mean you can be confident of winning against Miss Labyen?”

I shook my head.

“no.”

It’s kind of like winning.

I didn’t even actually fight.

It’s too early to be sure.

However, when the Marquis asked about my fighting ability, I answered without hesitation.

“Enough to pierce her and break your head.”

Would this be a satisfactory answer?

Probably.

“…….”

The body of the Marquis, who was always relaxed even in front of me, had a slight trembling.

“…You’re more crazy than I’ve heard.”

Looking at the rave reviews coming out of the escort’s mouth like this.
