Bjorn Yandel the Barbarian

Amelia looked at me as if trying to understand my intentions. However, he continued with a somewhat bitter voice, as if he had not found another intention in the end.

“I am… a plunderer.”

“It’s natural since I’m from Noark. But I know better that they’re different in nature.”

In fact, Amelia sent me and Einar alive when we first met.

It’s the same when we meet in the sewer.

The dwarf, Rotmiller Misha, and even Dwalki.

Not only me, the ‘Barbarian’, but everyone else, while feeding the precious ‘Lethe’s Blessing’, came up with a different method.

so that.

“My information is also registered with the Explorers’ Guild. Of course, the royal family will know—”

I cut Amelia’s words firmly.

“It’s enough to create a new status.”

“It’s not as easy as it sounds. If I’m next to you, a nobleman, I’m sure there will be people trying to figure out my identity—”

Ugh, there’s a lot of talk today

.

“Something like that… there’s no way that’s going to happen, so I’m saying it now. At that time, if we insist on it, we’ll get into trouble—” ”

That’s insurance.”

“insurance……?”

“Okay, I’ll take care of whether it works or not, so you just have to answer.”

An either/or choice made up of ‘yes’ and ‘no’.

As I tidied up the situation, Amelia hesitated for a moment before sighing.

“Haa why do you always trouble me…”

“So what’s the answer?”

“Okay. If I could be by your side, there would be no problem…”

Amelia sighed and averted her gaze.

But wouldn’t he like his unconscious behavior?

Swoop.

Amelia looked up and said, looking me in the eye.

“Then I will be your colleague.”

Quest accomplished.

***

Quest Name: Save my sister!

Goal: Survival of my sister (0/1) Resolving the status problem (0/1)

Reward: Recruitment ticket for Amelia Laneways (SSR)

Hmm, I guess it’s roughly like this.

As I was neatly organizing this quest, Amelia took the bottle from the table and gulped it down.

“I heard you don’t drink because you’re not drunk?”

“I’m thirsty.”

Oh, really.

But it’s very macho to say such things while drinking alcohol.

Took.

Amelia put down the bottle and frowned.

Seeing this, I couldn’t stand it and asked.

“Are you not good at drinking?”

“How does this taste delicious?”

“No, I just checked. I don’t really like alcohol either.”

They say that if you go through a lot of hard work, it becomes like a sweet drink, so I asked just in case. I think I’ve been through enough adversity, but it’s still just that.

“……Stop talking nonsense and get to the point.”

Saying that, Amelia sat down on the other side.

“You said you wanted to hear about Nibelz Enche? Tell me. I might think of another way if I hear your opinion.”

“good night.”

“Oh, and one more thing. I’ll tell you in advance, but I’ll become your colleague only when I keep all the promises you made earlier. Do you understand?”

“But I didn’t ask you to join the clan, not a colleague?”

“Ah uh…”

Amelia flinched at my words.

“That’s… that’s for sure. I… I really thought that was what it meant. Correct me if the two of them are different—” ”

Okay, now that I think it’s better to be a comrade than a clanmate.”

“……Did you just make fun of me?”

quick-witted

“No way.”

Amelia looked at me suspiciously, but couldn’t say anything because there was no confirmation.

So, it’s time to turn the topic.

“Quickly say something. Everything I don’t know about, including Nibelz Enze.”

When we got back to the main topic, Amelia erased her playfulness and began to talk while recalling her memories.

“Nivellez Enze was the name of the man who saved my life that day. ‘Iron Mask’ was his nickname at Noark.”

“It was too.”

First of all, the part that was long was clear.

I am this woman’s lifesaver.

Hehe, somehow, from the day I came down to Noark wearing an iron mask, for some reason, he only became attached to me.

“So I kept thinking about whether I should tell you this. I came here to change the past, but the more I struggled, the more it seemed like everything was going as planned.”

“Right.”

I didn’t need long words because I’ve already experienced it once.

“But didn’t you say you wouldn’t give up? That’s it. Talk to me. When was the last time you met me and Nibelz Enze?” “I don’t know the exact date. However, if I remember correctly, it will be about three weeks from now. The place

is introspection. ”

did.

No matter what I asked, Amelia told me honestly, without being wary or looking at me like before.

In a way, the first perfect communication.

Oh, of course, that didn’t mean that the answer would come straight away.

“Any more questions?”

“No, I think I heard everything I heard.”

“Okay then…”

“I’m sorry. To be honest, I’m not sure yet. I’ll think about it some more.”

“Is that so…”

When I replied that I didn’t think of anything, Amelia looked sad, but didn’t say anything.

“Well, you probably don’t immediately come up with a number.”

“Sounds like you didn’t expect it at all.”

“…Strange guy. If he really did, he wouldn’t have said this to you.”

“Hmm, so you believe me?”

“…to some extent.”

“To what extent?”

As soon as I heard it, I ate and laughed.

Normally, it would have been considered a snarky answer, but perhaps it was because Amelia was the one who said it, I was somehow proud.

isn’t that

I just listen to my parents’ compliments with a grain of salt, but when someone who is usually picky gives a favorable review, I feel like I’m recognized somewhere.

“Anyway, if there are no more questions, it’s my turn now.”

“huh?”

“What are you surprised about?

“Oh, I see. Try it. What are you so curious about?”

“What exact conversation did you have with Auril Gavis?

I thought questions about the world I lived in would come up, but they didn’t.

He really has no useless curiosity.

Well, I guess that would be convenient for me.

“Actually, all you might be curious about is what I said earlier. But if you’re curious, I’ll tell you from the beginning. When I woke up, the place I was in was a mansion that made me feel very déjà vu. ….”

“It’s okay, so try it. There’s still a lot of night left.”

“Uh…… Then I understand.”

After that, I told everything about what happened in the spiritual world I visited last month.

As a result, the names of giants were also mentioned.

Leader of Orcules.

Annihilator Belbev Ruingenes.

And an unidentified man called ‘Kagureas’.

“Kagureas? It’s the first time I’ve heard a name like that.”

Unfortunately, Amelia knew nothing about the man.

Well, it’s two different people, although the case was a little different.

“The leader of Orculis was there… There were rumors that it might be an evil spirit, but to think it was true. So, are you from the same place as the leader?”

“That’s not it either. Not all demons come from the same dimension.”

“Is it the same for the Annihilator?”

“Probably so. It was just around this time that people from our hometown started being brought in.”

“I see… Thanks to that, I heard an amazing secret story. I don’t know about the leader, but there wasn’t even a rumor that the old Ruin Genes was an evil spirit.”

“In that sense, I’m asking, can you hear a little bit about the two of them?”

“I don’t know much, but if you want to.”

This time, though, it was Amelia who removed the insurance before spitting out the information. There were a lot more useful things than I thought.

well i didn’t know much

There’s not much information spread outside the leader or the ruin scholar.

It was inevitable that there would be a difference in common sense from Amelia, who was a native of Noark and had many contacts with Orculis.

“So you will be called there on the 15th again?”

“Probably so. He said at the end that he would settle the equity issue, but I’m a little curious about how it turned out. Oh, is there anything you want to ask him? Then, when I’m called later, I’ll ask you.”

“……Think about it.”

After that, there was nothing more to talk about, so I gave up and lay down on the bed. Perhaps it was because I stayed up most of the night, the day felt particularly long.

But after lying down, did you have any more questions?

“What kind of world was the world you were in?”

Unusually, Amelia asked me questions like this and that, and I answered them one by one.

Democracy science car and airplane missile.

Every time he said something, he needed an explanation, so it was long, but it wasn’t boring or annoying.

It was the first time that it had ever happened.

To have shared this with someone in this body.

Unlike usual, when he had to think twice about every word he said, because he had to hide his identity as a demon, there was no need to do that in his conversation with Amelia.

how much time had passed

“It was quite an interesting story. Most people knew about it, though.”

“What? Did you know? How?”

“Because there are many demons who have revealed their true identities in Noark. As you spend your time there, you will hear stories about this and that.”

“I see…… No wait, then why did you ask me that again?”

“That’s…”

Amelia blurted out.

And the silence continued for a while.

“Are you asleep?”

“…….”

“Don’t pretend to sleep. I know you’re half asleep like a dolphin.”

“…….”

Is this Cheongchuleoram?

I didn’t know how to reverse one of the two ways to make people angry against me.

“……Are you really sleeping?”

“…….”

I’m so stupid now I’m even snoring.

haha really funny What is acting?

I don’t know, but after that I closed my eyes without speaking to you.

It was for a simple reason.

I didn’t want to disturb him if he had fallen asleep for the first time in a really long time.

“……Good night.”

I turned my back and lay down facing the wall and soon fell asleep.

***

Time passed quickly after that day.

No, is it a bit too fast?

To be honest, it was a very boring time.

Because I did not want to create a variable, I thoroughly refrained from going out, so I only killed time in the dorm all day.

Oh, that doesn’t mean it wasn’t a pointless time.

“Wash off Bayon.”

“Why can’t I go out?”

“……It smells.”

We talked all day long.

The topics were several.

Sometimes it was my hometown, sometimes it was memories of Amelia and her sister, and sometimes it was an episode in the labyrinth.

In any case, as I had a wide-ranging conversation, I learned more about the character Amelia.

Well, the biggest of them all would be finally hearing the details of the essence of Amelia’s possession.

‘Have you not been able to do proper team activities? I don’t understand why I could only go up to the 8th floor with that spec.’

Amelia’s specs were much better than I expected.

To be honest, without Akzee’s longsword or ‘Dragon Word’, it’s safe to say that he’s above the dragon slayer.

‘But not only combat, but also the talent of a guide.’

Based on this, he can perform the position of a seeker, and as an aura user, he is an extreme dealer who can quickly slice through monsters that are resistant to physical damage.

Instead, it has the downside of being weak…….

That’s the problem I just need to tank well in front.

“Oh right. How did you go out today?”

“As expected, the answer of refusal came back.”

After coming out of the shower, Amelia answered, wiping her hair with a towel.

It’s like this too.

“Hmm, it might have been a problem that I called too little……”

It was a failure to bring the Rain Wales sisters, who belonged to the other team’s ‘chasers’, by paying money.

“What about them? Do you think they’d change their mind if I gave them more money?”

“Well, I don’t know, but it’s better not to do it that way. If they find out that we’re obsessed with the two, they’ll go beyond being wary and try to take advantage of us with that.”

“That’s probably the case too. All the guys here are clever.”

“Still, we succeeded in taking a natural approach. Fortunately, they showed interest in us first.”

“If you’re interested?”

“He said he had no intention of joining their team.”

In a way, things were progressing according to our plan, but neither of us looked bright.

Yes, because all of this happened in the past.

“It just fits so well that it’s almost suffocating.”

Even in the original history, we enter that team.

And after experiencing this and that, about five months later, the incident occurs.

“So what are you going to do?”

“…I’ll join the team as planned. Even if it’s a bit cramped, that’s the best way to be around when the incident happened.”

“Okay? Then let’s do it that way.”

I didn’t really disagree or disagree.

No matter how much I think about it, it seems impossible to change the past in this way, but there is no other way to think of it.

For now, I decided to follow Amelia’s plan.

At least until a better plan comes to mind.

Yeah, so in that sense…….

[23:55]

I check the time one more time.

Looking at me like that, Amelia said.

“Ah, then, today is the day.”

“okay.”

I drank a glass of water and lay down on the bed.

“Have a good trip.”

Seeing off is very awkward again.

“We still have 5 minutes to go. It’s a very short time here anyway.”

“Oh, that’s right.”

After that, I passed the time with Amelia in trivial conversation.

Is it because of the Gavis that the opponent will awake?

Just a little bit nervous—

click.

At that moment, the second hand of the watch on the bedside table clicked and my eyes blurred.

‘The cider at that time was really good.’

Will you give it to me if I ask for it again?
