Bjorn Yandel the Barbarian

Chapter 301

Episode 301 Evil Spirit (5)

“Beyond! I only watched from behind, but it was still a fun adventure! See you later when I get a chance!”

“……okay.”

After a short farewell, Carlton’s group went out of the rift. So now it’s our turn to focus on what we need to do.

“Let’s go. You don’t know what else there is!”

“……Are you going to wander around looking for it?”

No, I thought I’d find just what I wanted by pretending to wander around recklessly.

“Follow me. Here are some things I know.”

oh if so

I followed Amelia, an experienced person, and left the boss room and moved in the reverse order.

And I found two hidden elements.

‘Earth Fragment’ that increases Earth Resistance and Physical Resistance by 1.

A ‘Book of Souls’ that gives 3 extra experience points.

For reference, Amelia came before and ate all of them, so I ate them all, and with that, the exploration of the Hidden Peace in the White Temple was over.

That’s all the spirit medicine was.

For the rest, you have to use ‘distortion’ magic, but you can take them out and sell them.

‘Then, since I’ve packed everything I need to pack……’

“Amelia Why don’t you leave right away instead of leaving?”

“why?”

“Honestly, it’s because I’m tired after sleeping for 3 hours every day. Why don’t you just take a good night’s sleep here?”

“…….”

At my suggestion, Amelia looked at me with disapproving eyes.

It was obvious what he was thinking.

A lot of time has passed and the labyrinth is closing tomorrow, so he must be asking if he should rest now.

‘Tsk I’ve already achieved my goal a long time ago, but I’m so greedy.’

However, whining is not my style, so I gave a reasonable reason to take a break.

“My head is complicated, so I need some time.”

“Ah…”

Amelia then put on an expression of realization and soon accepted my request without regret.

“Okay. Then I’ll rest and then go out. Tell me whenever you’re ready.”

No matter what I do, my heart is warm in this way.

“Thank you, Amelia.”

“…just rest.”

Soon after, Amelia took out her sleeping bag and lay down on the floor, and I took a seat about 3m away from Amelia.

And the clean-up began in earnest.

‘Let’s see…….’

The experience gained from the first kill in the White Temple is 156.

And if you add 1 bonus to kill higher variants, 3 bonus to kill guardians, and 3 to each other, the total is 163

. There is still a long way to go.

But…

‘If I do well, I’ll be able to take up to level 7 in the mid-to-late 6th floor.’

It cannot be denied that the character is getting closer to completion.

I also ate the Demon Grinder this time.

‘How am I supposed to take this…’

It was the time when I was thinking.

“Yandel I have something I want to ask you.”

“Ah! You mean that number item

?

uh isn’t that

I was worried about what to do if they asked me to do N bread.

“You… don’t want to change?”

“What are you talking about?”

“Yandel Zarku, your father.”

Oh that…….

Jeop I didn’t think of it as much as I could on purpose.

“Maybe we can save it.”

“Except that he died when he was young, for some reason, and we don’t even know when exactly he died, so how can he be saved?”

“If you want, I can go up to the city and help—”

“Okay.”

I cut off Amelia and said firmly.

“That’s not what I want.”

“……why?”

Amelia asked with sincere curiosity.

Well, from his point of view, I must have seemed strange.

Because I don’t know that I’m a demon.

And…

“If it was only going to turn into something like that, it would have turned into what we met here.”

The future doesn’t change.

Of course, Amelia seems to have felt that fact to some extent.

However, the weight must be different from me, who received a definite answer from Auril Gavis and even confirmed the cause and effect of Raven and Dwalki.

“It doesn’t change? What does that mean?”

Amelia jumped up and asked.

I thought about it for a while and then honestly said it.

About trying to change Dwalkie and Raven’s future, but all failed.

“That can’t be……”

Amelia, who heard me, bit her lips and tried to deny it, and I just asked calmly.

“Amelia, didn’t you vaguely know?”

“Did you know…?”

“Or what was it? Your surprise when you saw the name of ‘Nivelles Enze’ or the look you gave me when I came wearing this helmet.”

“That’s……”

“Didn’t you know? That the past doesn’t change no matter what we do. No, rather, things went that way because of us.”

“…….”

Amelia made no reply.

I just clenched my fists and endured something.

It was only after a moment of silence that his mouth opened again.

“…So you’re giving up? You might be able to save your family, but you don’t even try.”

The way he spoke was the same as usual, but there was a hint of aggression in his voice.

Is that why?

I also came out a little crookedly.

“Anyway, he’s a father I’ve never seen before.”

“In other words, you don’t have enough affection for that?”

“……okay.”

“Right.”

Amelia clicked her tongue as she spoke in agreement.

It seemed like I was disappointed.

Ha, did I just not want to mention this topic?

They seem to have gotten a little closer lately, but they all screwed up.

“…….”

“…….”

After that, we took a break without exchanging a word.

And maybe an hour or five passed?

I woke up from a deep sleep and said let’s just go outside. He decided that it would be more convenient to go out and do something than to lie on a cushion of thorns like this.

But…

“Can I drop by there for a moment?”

“as you please.”

After returning to the boss room to take the portal, I approached the cabin behind it.

It was simple curiosity.

In the game, I couldn’t enter because it was just a feature, but…

‘Oh, the door opens too.’

Squeaking, I entered the cabin and glanced around.

And it felt very familiar.

One bookcase, dining table, carpet stove.

The interior was nothing special.

An ordinary cabin that anyone can imagine.

It’s just the size, structure, and arrangement of furniture.

‘It’s exactly the same as there…?’

A place came to mind without looking around in detail.

The only safe zone that exists in the Witch’s Forest on the 3rd floor.

Witch’s Hut.

The same place where the Lord of Chaos was summoned after resting with Misha in the past and offering human firewood.

“The search is on your mind, but when we searched there before, there was no such thing as Gabrielius’ arrangement.”

At Amelia’s words to come out quickly, I checked only the books on the bookshelf and came out.

Oh, all the books were blank.

The titles were written in an ancient language and I couldn’t read them.

Um, if you bring Raven in later, maybe you’ll find something?

“If you’re ready, go out.”

“Oh, in case you don’t know, I’ll go first.”

“…….”

Soon the two of us stood in front of the portal.

Now riding it will take you back to where you were when you first entered the rift.

Turbuck.

As a tanker, I stepped into the portal first.

Shaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

The light from the portal wrapped around my body and my eyes flashed.

And slowly, his eyesight returned.

But what the hell is this?

“Whoa! Did you finally come out!”

A group of explorers stood in front of him.

As if waiting for us.

“Yeah, the number item is out—”

Me and a group of explorers looked at each other at the same time and flinched.

“What is it? An iron mask?”

A team of explorers from ‘Beck’, who was a member of the castle lord’s faction.

“Hey, how amazing is this? I didn’t think it was you who met these three guys inside.”

“Three guys…?”

I unconsciously moved my head to follow Beck’s gaze and then froze.

Beep beep.

For some reason, I kept hearing tinnitus in my ears.

***

What is this?

My head went blank for an instant, but my brain recognized and analyzed the visual information coming in in real time.

Carlton Drake.

Amberne Berta Garcia.

And Jarku’s third son, Yandel.

The bodies of the three who went through the portal a few hours ago are lying on the floor.

No, it’s not just these three.

There are two more corpses.

I guessed who it was.

[It’s a big deal! Remud and Hans couldn’t come in!!]

It’s probably the two of them who were waiting outside.

If so, how did this happen?

“……Byon.”

Amelia, who came out after me, grasped the situation and grabbed my wrist with her hand.

Are you putting up with sudden actions?

Well, I think so, but…….

Beep- Beep-

Oh, it’s noisy.

I closed my eyes for a long time trying to find reason somehow.

Everything in front of my eyes was the same.

“Seeing that we met only for the second time during this expedition, it must be a relationship!”

Beck laughed and rose from the body of the corpse that had been sitting like a chair.

Amelia asked Beck.

“…why are you guys here?”

“Well, as soon as the rift opens, I’m walking around and I see these two guys here.”

Beck said, tapping the corpses presumably Lemud and Hans with his feet.

“Once I grabbed it and asked, I heard that only three of my colleagues went inside? So after waiting all this time, these three came out.”

Beck shrugged off what happened next, and Amelia didn’t ask further.

Because that was obvious.

After killing these three, you must have gathered only the necessary information.

Things like the Guardian dropping the ‘Numbers Item’ at the end.

Beep Beep –

Amelia and Beck are talking about something.

It was so noisy that I couldn’t hear it very well.

So I just blankly thought.

[Ah, is it a little difficult for humans? Just feel free to call me Yandel Jarku!]

I knew I was going to die.

But I didn’t know that it was because of me.

‘If I hadn’t.’

Yandel Jarku must have entered the rift with all of his teammates.

Therefore, the remaining comrades would not have been found waiting in front of them.

As a result

he…

no they wouldn’t have died.

I would have continued on my journey.

And if you do well

……. A child of my blood and hers—]

Yandel Jarku could have seen the child grow. Or, perhaps, as adults, they might have entered a labyrinth together.

‘If it wasn’t for me.’

There would have been no evil spirit dwelling in Bjorn Yandel’s body.

Beep beep.

Tinnitus gets worse

It was a kind of protection mechanism.

To be able to turn a little away from the voice resounding inside me.

An echo for cowards.

Kwak.

Obviously, you’re putting all your strength into your hands, but blood collects in your head.

Beep-

‘if it wasn’t for me.’

Dwalki is not dead.

Even if he became an explorer later, he wouldn’t have gone to that dangerous place on the 4th floor.

Beep-.

‘If I hadn’t come.’

Dwalki’s love may have come true.

One day, they might have met as colleagues by chance and become a relationship where they heal each other.

‘I…’

Maybe.

If the.

yes if not

Beep-.

Not my ears, but my head is tingling.

“But why is that friend so silent when he leaves?”

“Beyonce.”

Like homework that has been put off all along.

Emotions are just emotions.

“Calm down Beyonce.”

Numerous emotions that I threw away in a corner of my heart and turned away come over me at the same time.

I had to do something.

I know it would be hypocritical to say it for someone else, so for myself.

I opened my mouth that had been closed.

“Amelia.”

Her real name, not a pseudonym, Emily.

Was that enough to understand the situation?

“The lord of the castle forces. Be patient.”

The force Amelia exerts by holding my wrist becomes stronger.

Of course it didn’t make any sense.

Turbuck.

you’re a nerd

“Beyon…”

Beck grinned as he shrugged off Amelia and stepped forward.

“Whoops, the iron mask must have been angry. Where did I ask for it? I just meant to see what we got. Didn’t we wait a long time too?”

I couldn’t hear the conversation they were having, but I could understand it in context.

Yes, I’m curious about this, right?

clap.

I took out the hammer I had put in the subspace.

No.87 Crawl’s Demon Grinder.

“Hammer? One of the number items…”

Beck muttered something, then blurted out his words.

And he changed his expression.

“Now wait. Can I take a closer look? I wonder if it’s something I know.”

“Yes.”

I took a step forward, and Beck took a cautious step too.

And when it’s just the right distance.

“That thing really is! Did it really come from inside?”

“okay.”

I’m glad your curiosity has been resolved.

Poo-!

then die now
