Bjorn Yandel the Barbarian

[It is also a bit suspicious that they targeted two areas at the same time. It’s a wonder how long you can survive if you only target one…]

[There’s even a Biffron between Areas 7 and 13, so Mercury will be much more difficult.]

[…That’s right. Really, why did that happen? Is there some purpose to Bifron?]

We couldn’t know the details, but at the time, we guessed that there might be some hidden meaning to the movement.

And the guess was correct.

Just like this.

“…!”

An embarrassed expression that could not be hidden the moment Biffron was mentioned.

“…I don’t know what you’re saying all of a sudden.”

It was too late to try to fix things like that.

Because my feelings have already turned into conviction.

“I think it’ll be okay even if you don’t get out of the way.”

I cut him off and said,

After all, the correct answer has already been found, right?

I don’t know what on earth these guys are hiding in Biflon.

“Because we’re going to Biffron.”

As long as you do the opposite of what the enemy wants, you will eat half of it.

“….”

Looking at the guy who suddenly seemed to be thinking a lot about my remarks, I realized that there was no difference between having a conversation or confronting him.

It was like that just a moment ago.

If it hadn’t been for a surprise attack at an unexpected time, we wouldn’t have gotten this much of a response.

“….”

The silence becomes longer.

Why do you suddenly want to go to Biflon?

It seems like there was some strange misunderstanding about me.

There was no such excuse at all.

The guy just looked at me quietly from afar and didn’t say anything.

It seemed like he was choosing over and over again in his head, rather than hastily saying anything.

Well, it’s already too late.

“So, I’m going to turn around from now on, but you still won’t catch me?”

As I said this with a grin, the vice-captain muttered quietly.

“I heard it was clever, but I didn’t expect it to be like this.”

Well, if you think about it that way, I am like that too.

I just said he was Orculis’ second-in-command. I’ve never heard of a position like this.

“So what is the answer?”

When asked with great enthusiasm, the vice-captain immediately answered as if snorting.

“Do as you please. Are you going to Biffron? Then head there. “We will not stop you.”

…This must be a bluff, right?

That suspicion comes to mind first, but it does not lead to certainty.

Because we always have to keep all possibilities open.

In fact, they were just confused by the word ‘Bifron’ earlier, so if we head there, there might not be any trouble for them.

‘Ha… they’re playing psychological warfare here again.’

My head hurts.

There hasn’t been a single physical argument yet, but I could feel it just by talking.

That guy is not a soft enemy.

“From now on, it’s your choice.”

“….”

“Now what should we do?”

The vice-captain suddenly returned to his calm tone of voice.

Did you think you had regained the initiative that had been taken away?

In reality, when all the options were open, I started to get confused and had a hard time choosing just one.

But…

“Please make the right choice. “Doesn’t the fate of many people depend on your choice?”

Barbarians have no choice.

No matter how difficult or dangerous it may seem, if they feel that something has to be done, they do it without hesitation.

Oh, of course, I’m used to situations where there are no options.

“What do you keep saying? “It’s loud and loud.”

He speaks clearly while looking at the vice-captain who narrows his eyes as if he is having difficulty understanding the content.

“What are the choices? Didn’t I say it earlier? “We’re going to Biffron.”

That guy probably didn’t know.

From the moment they tried to separate me in front of people, the option of climbing over the castle wall disappeared from me.

‘How can I just get out of this condition?’

The basic base is evil spirits.

During the Ice Rock expedition, he killed the Rose Knights and made nothing of it, and most recently, there are circumstances in which he even attempted to steal the royal family’s property.

If I give the royal family a reason to investigate us in this state, I will be in a more dangerous situation than going to Bifron.

So….

“Anyway, it’s good that it doesn’t stop you. Goodbye. “We’ll just go.”

“….”

“You’re not going to change your mind now, are you?”

When I shrugged my shoulders and asked, the vice-captain responded in a tone that nothing was wrong.

“Is that possible? “I always keep my words.”

“Oh, you’re more masculine than you look?”

“More than it looks…?”

“haha! “It’s unmanly to worry about such trivial things!”

“….”

“Then will you please disappear from my sight now? “I was going to turn around and go to Biffron, but I thought it would be awkward if you guys did that.”

As I spoke in a low voice, the vice-captain took a moment to organize his thoughts before shouting.

“All troops! Move back to the walls!”

The Noark forces that were confronting us muttered as if they did not understand the vice-captain’s instructions, but did not disobey the vice-captain’s orders.

“They’re really leaving…”

As I watched them leave and return to the castle wall, I remembered the vice-captain’s last expression.

The face of the guy who was looking at me before turning his back seemed to be laughing at me and also seemed to be happy.

And is it because we saw it together?

“…Are you really planning to go to Biffron?”

Amelia asks me as if she is worried.

“…is this a good choice? Rather, it seems like they are luring us in that direction…”

Versil also cautiously expressed concern.

But….

‘What kind of bait is that?’

I guess I understand when I see the expression on his face at the end.

I shook off any remaining hesitation and turned my back towards the opposite direction of the castle wall.

“What are you doing! Follow me quickly! “We are heading to Biffron from now on!”

Even if you don’t know what it is, you will find out when you go there.

What on earth is hidden there that makes them so disgusted by the idea that we are going?

***

Roland Vanozant, vice-captain of Orculis.

He looked down at the empty castle wall and laughed as if it was absurd.

“…You really went.”

While he was mumbling, a woman dressed in alluring clothes came up to him.

“Vice-captain, are you okay? “Even if I send them away without really doing anything.”

Lyrane Vivian.

A woman who was once a promising magic tower talent, but became a warlock through repeated research and experiments on forbidden magic.

He said that even before he came into contact with black magic, he had a cruel hand and temperament, which caused a lot of talk, but in his view, that temper only got worse as it got worse, not lessened.

That unique sense of playfulness, too.

“You were embarrassed because he just left, right?”

“….”

“Hey, you just look embarrassed, why? “You always pretended to be smart, but I guess you never thought you would go?”

Banozant He didn’t like this type of person.

No, if I were to be specific, it belonged to the axis of hatred.

But…

‘Because it’s still useful.’

He answered, looking at the woman with a kind smile on his lips.

“Hehe, how can a person know everything? But seeing you say that, it seems like Miss Vivien had something to say?”

“no? What do you expect? “They even said they would send me back to the city, but I don’t think they would make that decision there.”

“….”

“But shouldn’t we follow along now? “If something goes wrong when we go to Bifron, it would be a big problem for us, right?”

Banozant also shook his head bitterly at those words.

Although she gives off a frivolous vibe, Vivien is by no means a stupid woman.

As she said, it was never a positive thing for an unpredictable person like Baron Yandel to enter Vifron.

“But it’s actually more dangerous to follow now. If you completely empty the walls, even the royal family will notice. “It is not time to give up District 7 yet.”

“But isn’t it a bit much to pretend that nothing happened and let me go?”

Vivien said sarcastically. Banozant just smiled carelessly.

“That’s right. “I also regret it.”

“Oh, so it seems like I’m bullying you. Are you just curious? “Why on earth did our smart vice-captain oppa do that?”

In the end, he reluctantly gave the answer to the persistent question as if he was trying to get an answer somehow.

“Miss Vivien, ordinary people cannot make such drastic choices in such a state. “It’s even more so when you have so much to lose.”

This wasn’t something I said in a haphazard way to get over the situation.

He has seen countless people and seen the process of making choices countless times.

No, I actually observed it.

That is why the nickname ‘Maan’ was created.

Most people think he got that nickname because of his special abilities…

but it just happened that the circumstances were right.

Actually, when I first got my tinnitus, I didn’t have that kind of ability.

He was good at reading other people’s thoughts from a young age.

But…

“Wow, now that I see our vice-captain oppa, I see he was really clueless, huh?”

Despite such a serious answer, Vivian only sneered, and Vanozant also frowned, not hiding his displeasure.

Then, did I feel like I had crossed a line a little?

“I heard that’s what normal people do.”

“….”

“But Bjorn Yandel is not an ordinary person, is he?”

Vivian, who spoke quickly, shrugged her shoulders and left, and Vanozant quietly laughed.

“He’s not an ordinary person…”

The first time he got to know ‘Bjorn Jandel’ was when he earned the title of baronet for his exploits in the Battle of Goblin Forest.

At that time, I just thought that someone special had appeared.

To be honest, at the time, I was just lucky and it wasn’t something to be wary of.

But what about now?

In the end, Bjorn Yandel grew into one of the most prominent figures in the kingdom.

Also….

‘I don’t even know how many times it has been already.’

For some reason, Bjorn Yandel keeps bumping into him.

The same goes for Dragon Slayer Regal Vagos.

How surprised I was to hear that the person he met in the maze after regaining his memories was Bjorn Yandel.

At that time, even before he gained fame and was awarded a title.

‘Is it a bad relationship…?’

Although he is not a superstitious person, he had a hunch.

Bjorn Jandel will continue to be a major obstacle in the future.

“I have to report to the leader first.”

After quickly gathering his thoughts, he used the communication method to convey this news to the leader in District 13.

And after the report was over, I looked at the empty castle walls and remembered the conversation with the dragon slayer.

[Hmm, tell me about Bjorn Yandel?]

As he was a rapidly growing explorer, he received various information from the dragon slayer who regained his memories.

Among them, there was also something like this.

[…Ah, vice-captain. One last thing.]

At the time, I heard the advice and passed it on, thinking it didn’t say anything.

[If possible, it’s best not to talk to him at all.]

I felt like I knew a little bit now.

[The moment you start talking, everything will go his way. Without you even knowing.]

Why did you say that then?
