Bjorn Yandel the Barbarian

In other words, early in the morning the very next day after joining the expedition sent by the royal family and arriving at the library.

Baba busy night! Baba busy night! Pararala pararala night-!

The wake-up trumpets played by military musicians reverberate throughout the library, announcing the arrival of morning.

Ha, why do you think the military is the same here and there?

‘If I say…, Baekho will get angry.’

It’s not that I don’t go to the training center for the public interest.

Anyway, the sound of the trumpet woke everyone up in an instant, with no time wasted idly.

As soon as this trumpet sounded, the day’s work began.

“It’s rationing!”

As soon as the campsite was organized, I got up early, stood in line in front of the cooks who prepared breakfast, received a meal, and inhaled it within a short time of 30 minutes.

and….

“There is a meeting in the morning, so each commander please participate.”

There was time for top-level officials to gather, discuss plans for the day, and brief the set plans.

I listened with my ears perked up to see if there was anything special, but nothing particularly important.

‘It’s just that today, like yesterday, we’re just hunting.’

Of course, there are differences in details.

Yesterday, I smashed the door and prevented restoration and summoned it at a crazy speed, but since the monster level has increased, I will proceed with the attack in the normal way this time.

Of course, wizards will also participate in the battle.

“Now then, let’s start our mission energetically today!”

I wondered if it would be necessary to gather all of them and hold a meeting, but in fact, this must be the characteristic of the military.

Being bound by formalities may sometimes work inefficiently, but sometimes the process can prevent unexpected accidents.

“To each position!”

After that, each group stood in their position as delivered, and the attack on the library resumed again.

“Today too, each battle group takes turns watching one.”

“Because it works.”

Over 200 people.

Of course, having them all join the battle is tantamount to killing chickens with a cow knife.

Therefore, what Jerome adopted was the shift work system.

“Pause! Teams 1 and 2 exchange duties with Team 3 and Temporary Team 4!”

When the time comes, Teams 1 and 2, who were guarding the stone gate, step aside, and Teams 3 and 4, who were picking out books from the bookshelf, take their place.

And the 1st and 2nd groups carry books on our behalf and recover the consumed physical strength and resources.

‘Today too, Kaislan and Parav will continue to cross each other.’

For reference, these two belong to Group 1.

After that, we eat separately.

Well, Raven is in the 3rd group, so it’s a little better, but…

Since he’s a wizard, he stays far behind, so it’s almost like we don’t run into each other during missions.

‘…After all, I can only talk about the oracle at night.’

While working hard as a gear that moves the group like that, I saw a colleague who was chatting with the knights from the Exploration Army before I knew it.

“Ha ha ha! Do not lie! How can mages and the like defeat warriors like us!”

“That’s why it’s even more humiliating! Who would have known that someone would lose a one-on-one duel to a wizard?”

“So when did that happen?”

“A month ago! However, since Bomb Sword would have been here, it would be natural for him not to know. It’s a famous story in the social world.”

No, when did he become so close?

The more you look at it, the more it can’t be an amazing affinity. In fact, it is also helpful for me.

“What kind of stories do you enjoy so much?”

“Ah… I, Baron! sorry. Focus on the mission—.”

“I didn’t mean to apologize.”

“yes…?”

“Aren’t we all the same warriors? I’m curious too. A knight who lost to a wizard, who the hell is that idiot?”

When I sneaked up and expressed my desire to participate in Nogari, the knight, who had been watching for a while, started laughing and talking excitedly.

And did it stand out a lot?

Other knights belonging to group 3 also came around to us and began to eavesdrop on the conversation, and occasionally participated in the nogari by adding chuimsae or correcting incorrect information.

‘Well, it can’t be fun to run a factory like this just for these guys.’

Even the knights who were having a hard time with me, perhaps because of the title of baron, asked if I felt a little closeness when I showed my easy-going appearance.

“Um… By the way, Baron, there is something I want to ask you…”

“It’s okay, do it.”

“I heard that you challenged Baron Kipriot to a duel during the victory ceremony. What exactly happened?”

“Oh, that? No big deal. Isn’t that some kind of goblin chewing me up from behind? I wanted to hit him with one, but he couldn’t do that, so he challenged me to a duel.”

“Ha ha… is that true? Baron Kypriot must have been very embarrassed.”

“It’s self-employed. There are too many people in the aristocratic family who don’t know much. The obvious truth that if a guy who has nothing has no choice but to mess around, he has no choice but to be beaten.”

A cool joke that only a titled aristocrat of the same position as them can do. The knights nodded, saying that they were right, as if they did not like it.

“Well… when did they ever do something tough?”

“There are quite a few people who don’t know the obvious story that they are safe because people like us protect them…”

Still, the knights passively participate in the gossip, as if to keep the line. However, the more I unraveled the story and continued to make cool remarks, the more I could clearly see that I was getting vicarious satisfaction and raising the corners of my mouth.

‘Okay, I think I’ve had enough of this.’

Even after that, I diligently solved the mystery throughout my shift, and that’s how I made friends with the knights belonging to the exploration force.

“The baron… you are more than a rumor. ah! Absolutely no bad meaning! I didn’t know you were such an easy-going and fun person…”

“haha! What are you making excuses for? Aren’t we already friends!”

“Chi, you mean friend! Whoops, don’t do that! If the commander hears it, he’ll be very angry!”

“Then you can do it as a comrade.”

“Comrades…yes, if it’s comrades…”

“Then I will ask for your back in case of danger.”

“…Trust us, Baron!”

Getting to know people always helps.

***

That night I spent the day peeling nogari with the knights.

After asking his colleagues to prepare for camp, he headed to the campsite of the 1st group where Sven Farab belongs.

Then, after seeking understanding from the people belonging to the church with him, he called him out.

“I wish I could tell you what I couldn’t tell you yesterday.”

“Ah… ah, I mean…”

“The trust you received. What was the contents of the oracle?”

Hearing the word ‘trust’, the guy flinched and looked around, then took a deep breath after confirming that the conversation here was sweet so that no one else could hear it.

And I lowered my voice and installed insurance.

“That… let me first tell you that this may all be my mistake…”

“You said you were sure about yesterday?”

“If you answer yes or no, you belong to that side, but… I wonder if this is different from what I believe myself to be, and what others see….

oh, blow up

“I get it. I’ll make the judgement, so you tell me what’s going on.”

“If you say so…”

Soon, the guy who had closed his eyes for a long time, as if to hold his heart, opened his eyes again and slowly opened his mouth.

“When I was in the city, I had a dream.”

“dream?”

“It’s hard to say, but… I heard a very divine voice. And I knew it naturally. That the owner of that voice… is her.”

“If she is, is she referring to Les Atlas?”

“Yes that’s right.”

A goddess appeared in a dream.

It is questionable why this guy firmly believed that it was an ‘Oracle’, but he decided to listen to the rest of the story in silence.

“So what did she say?”

“He showed me a scene from the future, saying that I had work to do in the future.”

Precognitive dream.

A form of oracle that is most commonly received by saints and women who have received revelations from God.

On that day, Parav said he saw a scene.

“It was the scene where the Archbishop told me to join the Exploration Army.”

That precognitive dream came true the very next day.

And thanks to that, I was convinced that this dream was not simply a dog dream, but that it was really an oracle.

“and?”

“That’s… that’s it.”

“what?”

“He said he would reappear when the time was right, and he told me to stay ready.”

To put it simply, the main quest means to throw it after entering the labyrinth with the exploration group…

To be honest, I didn’t understand.

“…But why did you pretend to have a stomach upset and try to run away? I heard you even received an oracle?”

“Uh, that’s…”

After hesitating for a long time, he closed his eyes and replied.

“An oracle…! It must be something dangerous!”

“…what?”

His head went blank for a moment, but he didn’t care and opened up to himself.

“It is clear that it is troublesome even if it is not dangerous. That, I also heard that intuition.”

Huh, what kind of guy is this?

Because of this, he must have kept the trust.

The moment it became known to the outside world, everyone in the church would have rolled this guy here and there to protect the oracle.

‘A paladin did that for that reason?’

It’s absurd, but if you think about it differently, I’m grateful. You didn’t honestly tell me what you were hiding from other people.

‘Loyalty… pass.’

“Um… then can I stop now? It’s because I’m still watching you from the other side.”

Soon after, the guy looked at the group on the church side and said.

In fact, he was looking at this place from the other side, but rather than a stinging glance, he clearly showed a worried expression.

Would he be as sweet as seeing a child left at the water’s edge?

‘That’s how the church treats them…’

“i get it. If you have another dream later, tell me right away.”

“I will.”

“Have a good night.”

“yes. Even the baron.”

After talking with Parab, I returned to the camp and slept.

However, today, for some reason, I couldn’t sleep easily.

‘It’s an oracle…’

There was nothing special about what I heard from him today.

Just like the guy who struggled somehow not to enter the labyrinth.

Something big is coming.

That intuition stuck strong.

So there was only one thing I could do.

Be prepared to not be swept away whether a tidal wave or a typhoon blows.

‘I wanted to save it and use it as much as possible…’

There’s nothing you can do about it.

Eventually, I made a decision under a blanket at night.

‘The essence of Bellarios.’

I must eat it as soon as possible.

***

111th day after entering the labyrinth.

The attack on the library has already progressed to this extent, and we have entered the section where level 3 monsters are pouring out.

‘It only took 5 days to get here.’

It’s new, but I can feel the power of the royal family.

knights, wizards, priests.

Should I say that the value itself is meaningless when you select and select talented people from among those precious occupational groups and create an army?

‘I could have just run to the village chief’s island at this rate.’

At first, I didn’t know how proper they were as a group, so I objected, but now that I think about it, I should have gone straight to the village chief and caught the village chief.

Even if the village chief had the essence of his human days intact, he would be helpless in front of an armed group like this.

“Baron! They say there’s a book featuring Bellarios!”

While I was thinking about this and that over lunch, good news came to me.

It was the third article who delivered the news.

I asked you to tell me when I found Bellarios.

“Is that the book you’re holding in your arms?”

“yes! As soon as I found it, I took it apart and brought it back!”

“thanks.”

“Thank you. Aren’t we comrades-in-arms!”

The result that I was able to get thanks to hard work on the good impression work.

The knight who took out the book and brought it to me gave it back with the utmost sincerity that a barbarian could show.

and….

Swoop.

When the ink on the tip of a fountain pen that changes color by the minute turns green. I quickly painted over the picture of Bellarios drawn in the book and looked for Commander Jerome St. Red.

“Hmm, do you mean I want to catch only the 4th group?”

“It’s the essence we need. Would you have decided to acknowledge ownership of things you acquired on your own?”

“It certainly is. Do you really need to? It’s a waste of time, so catch it with the other groups. Oh, of course I’ll give you the integers. If it comes out.”

Perhaps he thought the possibility of the essence dropping was low, and Jerome went beyond readily agreeing and decided to help with the hunt.

thus….

“I will summon you!”

As it is, I summoned Bellarios with the tuft.

“Take it!”

The smooth scales of Bellarios that appeared through the stone gates were quickly raged by the knights and archers, and within less than a minute after the start of the battle, he turned into light and disappeared.

Shaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!

A large magic stone.

And leaving only the essence.

“I never thought the essence… would really come out. huh? Where are you going, Baron? Ah, no way… needing essence…!”

“Yes, it was me.”

Leaving Jerome, who looked somewhat bewildered, I quickly ran and absorbed the essence.

“[Bellarios’ essence] permeates the character’s soul.”

Yes, you can finally eat this too.

“Behel—l!!!”

The day when Shield Baba was completed was not far off.
