Bjorn Yandel the Barbarian

Episode 11 2nd floor (1)

[There is a possibility that it has been divided into two by now. If you see a barbarian using a one-handed hammer and shield, don’t approach him recklessly and wait for support.] The

impression spreads.

It’s not detailed, but it doesn’t mean much.

I don’t think there are any other barbarians who use shields other than me.

“Mister……”

Erwen looks up at me with anxious eyes.

I could clearly see what he was thinking, and he smiled.

“Don’t worry. I won’t throw it away.”

Already I have decided to help Erwen.

The reason is simple.

From the beginning, I loved helping people in trouble.

If that is to my advantage.

“As I said before, I have nine loot and you have one. Do you understand?”

“Of course. I will definitely repay the favor.”

It’s a grace…….

“Yes, be sure to pay it back.”

If you’re willing to give it to me, there’s no reason not to take it. I won’t expect too much.

“Yes, it is……”

Seeing Erwen clenching her fists with determined eyes, I tightened the laces of my boots and finished my preparations to move.

“Then what are you going to do now?”

“First, move through the outskirts. Summon the spirits again. We’ll talk about the rest as we go.”

“yes.”

As I walked through the darkness using a fist-sized flame as a lantern, I confirmed a few more things.

“How long exactly can a spirit be summoned?”

“If it’s enough to light up the surroundings, it can last for 10 hours.”

“When will you recover again?”

“I’ll take a break for about two hours.”

“Right.”

Things are much better than I thought.

If everything goes according to plan, we will escape their pursuit without much risk.

Then I will see the return of the risk equal to the risk I took this time.

“mister.”

While I was organizing my thoughts for a while, Erwen spoke to me.

“May I ask where you’re going now?”

oh i didn’t say that

“It’s on the second floor.”

“yes……?”

don’t make that face Because you heard it right.

“We go to the second floor.”

“Are you and me alone?”

“Yes, just you and me.”

In fact, rather than not having a choice, it was something I had been thinking about before. On the first floor, moving the two of them only reduced their income, but

on the second floor, things would be different.

“Hey… Oh man? The second floor is completely different from the first floor. You know that, right…?”

“Know.”

On the first floor, three or four monsters increased to 15, and other mutants and even higher-level monsters appeared.

“But it will be fine if we only work in the beginning. You and I have a really good compatibility.”

“Am I with my uncle?”

I don’t know what surprises you, but melee tanks and ranged dealers have a good combination.

It was for that reason that I had been thinking about going upstairs with Erwen earlier. If it was there, even if you split the magic stones in half, your income would increase significantly.

But with no means to get past the darkness, I scrapped this idea. “Ah, no matter how much I think about it

, it seems like I’m avoiding the goblin and going into the orc’s lair…”

Well, judging from this reaction, even if I made a known offer, it seems like it would have been rejected like a knife…

The situation is different.

“Then is there any other way? As you know, they are all over the first floor.”

Erwen was motivated to go to the second floor, and he was able to raise the ratio to 9:1 by taking advantage of that gap.

Of course, that didn’t mean that the decision wasn’t entirely without an emotional factor.

[I’ll give 10,000 stones an extra chance to be the first to enjoy it for those who catch the Fairy Year.]

I hate these guys.

No, it’s more like a feeling of disgust beyond dislike.

By the way, you can get a reward that is greater than the risk while feeding these guys, and you can get the self-satisfaction of doing someone good?

Isn’t this the essence of efficiency?

“I’ll give you a chance to choose. What are you going to do?”

“I’ll go…”

Erwen wept and nodded with a mustard-eating expression. Apparently, the communication I just heard from the message stone played a decisive role…

Nice timing.

“Then let’s move on.”

“…By the way, do you know the way to the second floor?”

“I don’t know exactly.”

“yes?”

“But don’t worry. If you keep moving north, you’ll come out someday.”

It’s not wishful thinking, it really is.

If you follow the darkness and go in one direction, a portal will come out somehow. This darkness is like a passage pointing to the upper floors.

It’s a maze-like structure, so you have to get lost.

This much is worth bearing.

“It’s a goblin trap!”

As I was walking, I saw a trap.

It was much later than I thought. If it was originally, it should have come out earlier.

…Could there be few goblins in a place where there is no light? Like in the game?

If that’s the case, somehow my heart feels tight.

How unlucky I was to fall into the darkness from the start and meet the goblins right away.

“I’ll deal with you! You’re resting!”

Seeing this as an opportunity to appeal, Erwen stepped out in front of me.

“I’m telling you just in case, but don’t use spirits.”

“…of course!”

Erwen approached the trap with a look too flustered to be natural.

And…

“Greuk!”

The moment the goblin jumped out, I shot an arrow that had been hung on the string in advance from a very close distance.

hook-!

Oh, so that’s what Legolas looks like.

The workmanship is much better than expected. His body movements are also very agile.

“how is it?”

After killing the goblins, Erwen looked at me with a proud face.

“If it was usual, you would have used the spirit, right?”

“Yes…….”

“Well done. Looking at the archery, the fairy must have been hit.”

Erwen looked embarrassed and happy. Is it good to be recognized like that? To be honest, there were some things that I turned around a little bit.

Not in skill, but in character.

“But I will do the battles from now on. It would be best to save arrows as much as possible.”

“Oh, can I just pick it up again and use it? There’s no need to pull it out.”

Erwen bent down and returned with a magic stone and an arrow. The arrow was intact with no broken spots.

“…Right.”

feel sorry for the people

In the game, arrows were consumables that disappeared after one shot. Although I could carry a thousand rounds in each compartment instead.

“Come here!”

Erwen held out a small hand.

“Take it! I have one when you have nine, right? I’ll work hard from now on! Then I’ll be able to earn a little too, right? I promised to buy something for my younger brother when I get back!”

Uh ah um…….

“Yes, work hard…”

What is it? Are you turning it around?

***

A voice comes out from the message stone, which has been quiet for a while, when you are moving north quickly while catching goblins from time to time in the dark.

[This is an additional message. Hearts Young, who was beaten by a fairy, said he would raise the bounty to 20,000 stones. It doesn’t matter if they’re alive or dead.]

It means there are them around 300m away.

Perhaps instinctively, Erwen secretly clung to me.

“Don’t worry. No one will use a torch to find us.”

“Is that right?”

“okay.”

In fact, it’s close to certainty.

This was what I felt as I kept eavesdropping on the conversation with the message stone, but they were no different from a group of city officials.

It didn’t seem like it was going to come together that well.

Presumably, at best, it would have served as a convenient community for each other. In the first place, the first floor is a place where you can’t work with more than 5 people.

[I’m thinking of moving to another area to hunt razor wolves. Is there anyone I can move with? Delivery is unnecessary.]

[I’m tired, so I’m looking for someone to rest with. Come to the pond next to the big rock. There is no need for transmission.]

As I actually moved to this place, I heard these communications everywhere. There are people who don’t care too much about whether or not to put a bounty on them.

But I didn’t relax.

It’s not that things got tangled, it’s because things went smoothly according to plan.

Damn it…….

It’s about this time when something bad is about to happen to me, but the silence makes me anxious.

“mister!”

what.

“There’s a ghoul!”

Can’t you see? As I tilted my head, Erwen moved the flame forward.

…Your eyes are really good.

Only then did the shape of a ghoul come into my eyes.

Rotten skin and empty eyelids, sharp and long nails reminiscent of claws, and even the fact that he walks on four legs with a body similar to a human.

It is the same as the illustration seen on the loading screen.

But the problem is…

‘Why are ghouls here?’

On the first floor, the monsters that appear change based on the north, south, east, and west. And ghouls appear in the western area.

Did you get lost and come to the borderline?

Well, maybe. I headed north, but when I came to a dead end, I would go round and round.

We’ll think about this later.

“…Am I fighting alone this time too?”

When fighting the goblins, Erwen, who was full of enthusiasm, showed signs of disliking it.

Is it scary because it’s the first monster you’ve ever met?

He also has a very special corner.

“I’ll take the lead. You just have to pay attention to the one in the back.”

“yes!”

After sharing the rough strategy, I went out slowly.

The number of ghouls blocking the aisle was three in total, all in a puppy sitting position.

Turbuck.

Even though I got pretty close, there was no movement.

Hmm, in the game, you have to go first when you approach a certain range, but is this the same as the game?

Turbuck.

As I cautiously took another step, three ghouls attacked at the same time.

“Grrrrrrr!”

The sound it makes is similar to that of a goblin.

Is it because it’s a 9th grade monster? You don’t have a personality.

“Huh!”

Rather than backing away, he took a step closer and struck the head of the ghoul in the lead with a hammer.

It’s called Hammer Smash.

Kwajik-!

As soon as one of the ghouls was crushed, an arrow shot from behind and hit another ghoul.

hooked!

He seems to really like his eyebrows.

Then, after pushing back the ghoul with his shield, he finished it off with a hammer smash, and the battle was over.

“You have killed the ghoul. EXP +1”

The battle ended in an instant, but I had a short time to recover.

In terms of combat power, ghouls were superior to goblins.

It was much stronger and faster.

Well, goblins do have traps, but…

those bastards are idiots.

…assuming there is light around, of course.

“Still, this one is much better than the goblins.”

“yes? Why?”

“Because it takes time to catch goblins.” As

long as you don’t get pushed back in an all-out battle, hunting ghouls seems to be more efficient than goblins in many ways.

At least you’ve set one trap and you won’t get stuck nearby. Attack first

until you get close . “Next time, it would be more efficient

to start by killing one with an arrow first.”

“Yes. I’d better do that.”

After briefly sharing my future battle plan, I collected the magic stones that had fallen on the floor and put them in my pocket.

“That mister…?”

“What’s going on?

” ”

Oh, I see.”

We continued down the aisle.

***

My prediction that it was near the border was correct.

Ghouls and goblins alternated for a while, then continued north, only goblins again. [22 : 47]

The point where the car on the 3rd day started to come to an end before I

knew it .

After taking a break for about 4 hours on the way, we continued heading north and found

a dark red line drawn on the floor . ”

Oh

, bloodstains? I don’t think it’s a goblin, but who could it be?”

…For some reason, I felt like the owner knew it.

So I followed it and found a piece of bread that had fallen. At regular intervals,

I continued to follow the bloodstain with confidence.

“Hey, earlier . It seems like you haven’t said anything since…”

10 minutes.

“Are you angry with me at all?”

30 minutes.

“Yes? Mr.

“Okay, I was wrong! I don’t know what it is!”

There was a portal within reach of my nose if I fell face down.
