Bjorn Yandel the Barbarian

Chapter 704

“By any chance… what kind of material are you talking about?”

“Oh, there’s a list of the remaining ingredients here. Would you like to take a look?”

“Okay, I’ll take a look.”

Afterwards, when GM handed over the notebook, Liris Marrone, who had raised her hand, took it and read it for a while before nodding.

“Then I don’t have to worry about the ingredients?”

“Huh? Is that true?”

“Yes. I knew in advance that the magic circle was broken, so I took as many as I could with me when I left. The only thing missing from the items listed was Pompura’s spores.

If you need spores because of the magic stabilization property, you can replace them with Lafion’s Wind Crystals, right?”

“Yes, yes! That’s right! It just has to be a wind crystal!”

Oh, I didn’t expect this. I heard that they could start working on restoring the magic circle right now.

However, the problem is that… ‘What should I do?’ The number of choices has increased, but it is not easy to decide what to choose.

Well, it doesn’t feel safe even though it’s a city. I know why Baekho Lee tried to return to the city as soon as possible.

[Once the preparations made on Noark’s side are complete, we will advance to the imperial capital Karnon and kill the king of Lapdonia.]

Whether Baekho Lee is in the city or not, some kind of ‘event’ will happen. ‘I said it would be a year later, more than nine months ago.’

I think there are about 3 months left from now. Anyway, because of those things, even if I were to go back, it wouldn’t be easy to make the choice to go to the city.

But…’But that doesn’t mean I’m reluctant to stay here…’In some ways, the outside of the walls feels more dangerous than the city itself.

A dangerous monster that could kill thousands of people without being able to do anything to Noark could appear outside the walls.

Or should I go into the city? In the end, I have to choose between these two options…

“How long will it take if we start the restoration of Havellion’s magic circle right away?”

“It won’t take long. It’s already been a long time and natural recovery has progressed considerably.”

“Tell me the exact time.”

“I can finish it within a week.”

Hmm, that’s right.

“Then let’s get started right away. If you need help from Bersil or Marone, feel free to ask for help anytime.”

“Yes, I understand.”

However, he ordered that the magic circle restoration work begin immediately. He decided that it was right to fix the magic circle for now, whether heading to the city or staying outside the walls.

“Then, we’ll end the meeting here for today, so everyone can rest freely!”

It was earlier than expected, but we finished the meeting in a hurry. And that’s understandable, since we had already narrowed down our options to two.

There was one person I had to talk to first before deciding which one to choose.

“Sven Parab”

A knight from the Church of Atlas and a goblin mask.

“Yes···? I didn’t do anything?”

As soon as I call his name and approach him, he starts defending himself out of habit. When I see him like this, I wonder what kind of guy he is.

Surprisingly, this guy has one very unique special ability:

“Don’t worry, I’m not here to blame you.”

“Then… is it because of ‘that’?”

“Yeah, do you still have that ‘feeling’?”

Sven Parav has an ‘intuition’ ability that is close to ‘precognition’. Of course, it is not an unconditional intuition ability.

This guy can sense the ‘future crisis’ he’s experiencing with near-magical accuracy. What about this time?

“I… I don’t know yet. Nothing has been activated yet…”

“···Is that so·”

“If I ever feel anything like that, I will run over and tell you right away.”

“Okay, I got it.”

I feel a bit relieved that I can’t rely on my intuition to help me make a choice, but I also feel a bit relieved. ‘Not yet…’

Well, at least not yet. When the things written in that record happen. ***

One day, two days, three days, four days… Time passes quickly and it is exactly the 7th day from that day…

“It’s all over. Now, if we just activate the magic circle, we can return to the city right away.”

News came from GM that the magic circle restoration was complete. By the way, the GM’s expression when he delivered the news was extremely agitated.

I guess I’m just thrilled that I can finally return after this long journey…

“Yes…? What do you mean?”

“Just as I heard, we are not going back to the city right away.”

“···yes?”

As the one who dragged GM, who had been living like a reclusive loner, out of the castle walls, I would be lying if I said I didn’t feel sorry, but I couldn’t help it.

“If you don’t go back… what are you going to do?”

“Stay here and wait”

“Can you tell me why?”

“I can’t say yet. I’ll answer when I get more certainty.”

I continued to ‘wait’ without even properly explaining the reason. One day, two days, three days… One week, two weeks, three weeks… It was really a boring time where I just ‘waited’ without doing anything.

For me, those times felt like the calm before the storm. I could feel it intuitively, even if not as accurately as Sven Parab.

Thump – even tomorrow, right now · Ss …

Swaaa …

As if the end of the world is near, dark clouds gather together to form a huge cloud.

“I wonder if it’s going to rain?”

“···I don’t think that’s the case······”

“Does anyone know anything about climate change?”

The surroundings became noisy in an instant due to such a sudden change. I looked for one person among the members who came out of the barracks. Sven Parab.

It wasn’t that hard to find him. I opened the barracks and went in, and saw him shivering with the blanket over his head as if he had a cold.

I knew it as soon as I saw it

“I, Baron···”

Finally, Sven Parab’s ‘intuition’ kicked in. But the problem is…

“Hey, I have to get out of here…! Oh no… Where should I go if I get out of here…? There’s nowhere to run to…?”

I think this is the first time I’ve seen this guy in such a mental state.

“Speak calmly. What do you mean, ‘there is no place to run to?’”

“I’m going to die! Even if I stay here…! Even if I leave here and head to the city…!”
