Bjorn Yandel the Barbarian

Episode 596 RPG (4)

Sometimes that happens when playing games.

A pattern designed not to fight blindly but to resolve the issue by satisfying other specific conditions.

“Hmm… ”

Actually, if I think about it, it wouldn’t have been that difficult if the goal was to endure.

Because Hamsik did not have a single powerful skill.

In some cases, the casting time was long, so there was enough time to prepare.

But in the meantime.

‘It’s a buff that increases regeneration as you get injured.’

This mercenary’s body is specialized for holding on.

Even Erwen, who would have been out of power originally, used the [Chaos Circuit] to do his part to the fullest.

‘Something feels empty…’

I worked hard to catch it, but all I had to do was hold on.

I felt like I was wasting my strength by struggling in vain, but I decided to think positively.

‘Oh, but if you can catch it, it’s right to catch it.’

Cancer My judgment is not wrong.

What’s wrong with something that can be overcome just by holding on?

No, in fact, that makes it even more positive.

When a standard method works, there is always an additional reward.

Just like this.

[Really… I just wanted to help—.]

“Hamsik.”

[…Speak, mortal.]

Hamsik, who had never treated me like a human being, saying I had no right to ask questions, learned courtesy.

If we had endured and endured and this guy showed mercy, the change would never have occurred.

Maybe he just threw in one item and left without a proper explanation.

Well, that won’t happen anymore.

“I know you didn’t mean it with bad intentions, so say something now. “So what on earth is this?”

[If you feed that human girl, it will be a great help in your future journey.]

“Don’t talk vaguely about help or anything, but properly.”

First of all, I knew it was a spirit medicine, but I couldn’t give Erwen something whose identity I didn’t know, so I didn’t just ignore it and asked a lot of questions.

The efficacy of the elixir revealed by Hamsik was simple. If you eat this

, you’ll be able to gain a little bit of control over the ‘

outcasts’… so not only will you not be attacked by ‘monsters’?

[But keep in mind. [It won’t work for people with high spiritual abilities like me.]

Hamsik, who gave the words of advice seriously, gets up and heads toward the wall.

“Where are you going?”

[Now that I have received the answer I wanted, the business between us is over—.”

“Not yet?”

[…?]

Are you trying to steal my hidden piece reward?

After suppressing them like this, it would be a loss to just let them go. Of course, I don’t think Hamsik is hiding anything more material…

but the reward doesn’t necessarily have to be material.

Every piece of information I get from here is so valuable to me.

And in that sense.

“Who the hell are you? “You too are monsters… So you are the ones who were abandoned?”

Begin asking questions in earnest.

[…In the eyes of a mortal, it must be so.]

“Don’t answer vaguely, be clear.”

[…Yes. To be exact, they are ‘those who were abandoned.’]

“Those who were abandoned…?”

[We first gave up our faith, and by doing so we were able to escape bondage and remain independent beings.] The

abandoned and the abandoned.

After listening to the story, the difference between the two was simple.

‘Does intelligence exist or not?’

Goblins, Koblets, Orcs were among the ‘abandoned ones’.

Unlike ordinary monsters, they have achieved civilization and live in villages in forests or mountains.

Sometimes we interact with humans.

[But I understand that today has come. That there are things that cannot be thrown away no matter how much you want to throw them away.] “

…What do you mean by that?”

[I said the power would not work on those with higher spiritual powers, but don’t worry. They will never be hostile to that human girl. [Just like I did today…]

Something you can’t throw away even if you want to.

It wasn’t the answer to that question, but I moved on without tackling it.

There was something I needed to check first.

“Hamsik.”

[Speak, mortal.]

Looking at Hamsik, who did not even flinch at the name I gave him, I asked carefully.

“I’m asking just in case… is she an earth witch?”

[Witch?]

Hamsik shook his head resolutely, as if he had heard a strange sound.

However, that did not mean that Erwen was not an earth witch.

[That human girl is not a witch or anything.]

I was convinced by Hamsik’s next words.

[Just… a poor child born to a cruel fate.]

This crack.

The base really was an earth witch….

***

Each crack has a story.

Even when playing the game, you can tell that there is a backstory through various concepts or dialogues, but the reason I became convinced was the conversation with the vampire man.

A bloody castle where corpse golems and vampires appeared.

The place I visited countless times while playing games was a space created based on someone’s life.

The same goes for the White Temple and the Doppelganger Forest.

‘It’s a crack created based on a witch’s story…’ I have

a strong intuition that this is the most important starting point among all the explorations I’ve done so far, and it’s stuck in my mind.

Also, the contents of the ‘Golden Book’ that I read in Hamsik’s room suddenly come to mind.

Once upon a time, a brother and sister lived happily in a rural village. However, when my older brother left the village to become a wizard, my younger brother was greatly saddened.

To summarize, it is a diary-type content that can be written in three lines.

‘Maybe this is also a witch’s story.’

Perhaps through this exploration, we will be able to learn more about the witch and uncover the secrets of the labyrinth.

With that in mind, I spent a long time pouring out questions to Hamsik.

[Stop.]

Hamsik suddenly flashes a sharp look in his eyes and shouts.

“…stop?”

Do you think we are friends because you smile at me?

At the moment when I was really thinking about what kind of attitude I should take when dealing with Ham Sik in the future, Ham Sik seemed to have sensed this and shouted as if making an excuse.

[That’s not it…! The imperial army is coming!]

“The imperial army…?”

[Don’t even think about confronting me! No matter how much you do, you have no chance against so many enemies.]

Hmm… Is that so?

Even if I say it like that, it doesn’t feel real, but Hamsik continued his persuasive words in an earnest tone.

[You may be fine, but what about that human girl? Do you think you can defend yourself against that large number?]

It was definitely not wrong logic.

In fact, Erwen had not yet recovered from the aftereffects of using [Chaos Circuit].

“We should hurry and get out of the cave.”

[It will probably be difficult. Because everything is already surrounded on all sides…]

“Is this true, Erwen?”

“I don’t know. Because my physical condition is not normal….”

[If I hadn’t used up all my strength while dealing with you, I would have noticed it a long time ago…]

Hamsik recited with emotion.

I know he was upset, but it was a line I couldn’t just ignore.

“Are you saying this is all my fault now?”

[Isn’t that what you’re saying is finding the person responsible! Okay, come here quickly!]

“Huh?”

[There is only one way to get out of this cave safely!]

Hamsik, who led me to the center of the cave, waved his hand and a portal was created.

Huuuuuuung-!

Just by looking at it, you can see that the portal is very unstable and shaking.

“If I go in here, where do I come out?”

[I can not know. But… it’s probably not where you wanted to go.]

Hmm, was there another route other than passing through the cave using the compass?

I’m still not sure if it’s a positive event or the opposite But

…

“What are you going to do, uncle?”

“Let’s get started. “I don’t think he will harm us.”

There was no other choice.

If Erwen, who is in sunfish mode, gets seriously injured, there will be no way to control it.

As soon as we reached an agreement and was walking towards the portal, Hamsik called me.

[Mercenary.]

“…?”

[Please take care of that child.]

I wondered what he was going to say.

“I guess so. Even if you don’t say anything.”

I smiled and entered the portal, holding Erwen’s hand tightly.

And….

‘Is it now phase 3?’

When I open my eyes in anticipation of what will happen next.

「Special conditions – the misaligned journey is met.」

「The character moves to the great square.」

A square where thousands of people gathered.

“Kill it!!”

“God’s condemnation on the evil witch…!!”

We were kneeling on the gallows.

***

Let’s first summarize the situation.

He stands on a gallows with his limbs bound.

‘Has all the equipment been stolen? ‘You’ll be able to find it, right?’

The equipment I worked so hard to root for has disappeared everywhere, and instead I am covered in a piece of cloth that looks like mat.

Oh, and next to him is Erwen in a similar state.

For some reason, it has grown a little more than before.

“Oh man…!”

He now looks like he is about ten to twelve years old.

A noble man standing between me and Erwen, who was bound, began to recite our sins.

Starting from plotting a rebellion, killing nobles, massacre, arson, etc.

There was only “We seek the death penalty for this evil witch and her follower, Bjorn Yandel, who has wreaked havoc on the world for over 10 years.

”

Over 10 years.

‘Does that much have passed since we left the cave?’

Perhaps the crimes the nobleman spoke about also happened in the past 10 years.

‘But Erwen is still too young to say that?’

There are still questions, but I’ll pass this for now.

“What should I do, uncle?”

“Calm down. “Because I’m thinking about it.”

First, I comfort Erwen and then continue my thoughts.

But fortunately, there was time.

I thought the nobleman who was reciting his guilt would be executed immediately after coming down, but that wasn’t the case.

“This is a message from His. Majesty the Emperor!”

A knight fully armed with shining armor comes up next, opens a scroll as if conveying the king’s command, and begins to recite the story contained within. “

Subjects of the Empire! What a long time! What a difficult time it was! With the appearance of the evil witch, the world turned into hell…”

Words of congratulations and self-praise uttered in a louder voice, amplified by magic.

It was a time when I opened one ear and roughly listened to the contents while trying to figure out a way to escape.

Tuk-tuk.

Someone gently taps my shoulder, where my limbs are bound. Instead of a stiff neck, I moved only my eyes to see that a man with a familiar face was standing there. “It’s

been a while, Yandel.”

“You…?”

“I guess you remember me. “I only saw it once, on that day, ten years ago.”

Even if it was dozens of years ago, from my perspective, it was only a few hours ago.

It was the mercenary who moved with me in Chapter 1.

Unlike when I was still young, my face was full of wrinkles and my hair was gray.

“You haven’t changed since that day. So young. “Is that a power you gained by becoming a witch’s follower?”

“Let’s leave it at that.”

“I was really surprised when I first heard your name. Could it be that you are a follower of the witch who threw this world into chaos…? “To be honest, I wasn’t sure until I saw it here in person .”

“….”

“Do you know? “I poured all my money into being here today, just for one day.”

“…Why did you do that?”

The guy didn’t answer my question.

“After you left, you joined the imperial army. “The rough lives of mercenaries and soldiers were similar, but I was finally able to settle down.”

“….”

“I met a woman full of passion, got married, and had children. It was a truly happy time. “Ten years was a long enough time to change my entire life, but at the same time, it “It was too short.”

The guy’s voice, which started out calmly, became more intense as the story progressed.

“Do you know? There is nothing for me now. “We lost everything when Fortress Nelbus fell to the monster army.”

…nimiral.

“Did you get the answer? “Why did I come here?”

I know it wasn’t me who did it, but it was still stressful to face such clear malicious intent from the front.

“They say that sometimes there are criminals who survive because the rope is cut, but don’t worry.”

“….”

“Because I checked it properly several times.”

As if he had finished everything he wanted to say, he stepped back and did not speak again.

And how long has it been?

“Oh man? I think the end is approaching…”

Even if no one told me, I knew that that moment was right around the corner.

The heated roar of the crowd.

‘…what should I do with this?’

Thinking that if it stays like this, it will break, I try to apply so much force that my veins will burst, but there is no sign of the rope breaking.

‘Isn’t this… too unreasonable?’

At first, I thought there was a helpful NPC talking to me from behind, but that wasn’t the case.

So are you really going to die like this?

Or if you die, you wake up again and continue to the next chapter?

I couldn’t figure it out.

The only truth I know is that this is not a reason to give up.

“Aaaaaaaaa!!!”

Resist by drawing out all the power in your body.

Still, it wasn’t enough to cut the rope.

But…

crackling –

the rope became slightly loose.

Gaining hope, I shook my whole body back and forth as much as I felt loose.

“…Stop!”

A soldier came over to stop me from going on a rampage.

…It was that guy from earlier.

Wow!

Using the loose space, I hit the guy’s head with my forehead.

“…uh? Aaaaaaaaaaaah!”

A man falling from a high gallows.

“Kill! Kill it! “Kill me now!”

“Waaaaaa!!”

The crowd becomes more violent and shouts at the incident that occurred on the gallows.

Either way, I struggled to escape.

And…

“Haa…”

At that time, the knight who was reading the king’s message sighed heavily.

A small sigh echoes throughout “Well, it looks like preparations are just in time.

”

Only then did I recognize it.

This voice is very familiar to my ears.

“Sir Ervan was found dead…!”

“What? Then who is the author over there…!”

“Stop it!!”

Soon, the knights from below come up the stairs, shouting urgently.

And that moment.

“Let’s begin.”

Light bursts from the floor of the plaza that accommodates thousands of people.

Soo much!!

A very large magic circle the size of which I have never seen before in my life.

The man with his back turned to the halo took off his helmet roughly and threw it away.

“Come on. Do you know how much we suffered because of you?”

He was the village chief.
