Bjorn Yandel the Barbarian

Episode 522 Giant Island (1)

60 newbie explorers who came down to the first basement floor.

They were taken aback for a moment when they saw us alive and well, but soon came to their senses and came to introduce us.

“Baron Yandel, you are really alive. It’s an honor to meet you. I am the leader of the Armin Exploration Corps, Mule Armin.”

Although they do not belong to the four major clans, they are well-known and well-reviewed Armin Exploration Team.

It is famous for only exploring during the war.

“Magnon Nias. I am leading the Einferial Clan.”

Einferial, these are the first names I’ve ever heard of.

“I am Bjorn, the son of Yandel.”

Unlike us who entered Jung-gu Heating, the number of people in this episode is divided into two groups.

Mule Armin asked me cautiously.

“But… Aren’t you surprised to see us, Baron?”

“I guessed to some extent that time passes outside.”

“… yes?”

Mule Armin flinched and glanced at his comrades behind me.

Do you think there are players among my colleagues?

He quickly continued talking before his suspicions grew.

“I got a clue like that during my exploration.”

That’s not actually wrong.

Now that I think about it, I could have inferred enough from the village chief.

“ah… … .”

“But how did you know we were alive?”

The one answering my question was Magnon Nias, an explorer who seemed to be in his late thirties.

“Even the baron knows about the gathering of demons. Information about this place has been transmitted to the city through it.”

But why is the nuance of this bastard talking like this?

You treat me like I’m on the same level Do nobles look funny?

As I was looking at it, Mule Armin noticed and quickly opened his mouth.

“yes. However, since the source is the source, everyone still notices that it is long. However, everyone is acknowledging the possibility itself. Baron.”

“Right.”

Okay, if this is the case, it seems that the groundwork for avoiding suspicion of evil spirits has been laid.

At this point, I started doing research.

“But you guys are pretty too, aren’t you? You already found a way to open the portal.”

“It’s nothing compared to Baron Yandel. There were several clues from demons. When I think of the connection between the ancient language found on the stele and the sculpture temple, I wondered.”

“Then are your two clans cooperative?”

“It’s temporary, but for now.”

No, he’s really very short.

how do i cook this?

As I was thinking about that, Mule Armin willingly intervened this time as well.

“We met at the Sculpture Temple, so we decided to open the portal by combining the pieces we collected together because we were running out of time.”

“Oh, for reference, there are two of us. It was one interest.”

“… … yes. you’re right. So, we coordinated the number of people accordingly.”

Somehow, the number of people fell just right at 40 people and 20 people.

There was such an inside story.

“Okay, now that we’re done talking, can we get some information about this place? Since it’s a new class, I thought I’d listen to it before I go on a full-scale exploration.”

Ha, seriously, why is this bastard so rude?

If you treat them with a smile, don’t nobles look like nobles?

“You speak as if you are receiving a loan.”

When I lowered my voice, he just glanced at me and changed his tone.

“Nothing like that… … . only… Until we find a way to escape, we will run into each other often, whether we like it or not, so we meant to communicate.”

“okay?”

“Am, our existence will be of great help to Baron Yandel as well. Isn’t the Anabada Clan short on people?”

We haven’t had a long conversation, but I’m done judging this guy.

“On the other hand, our Ainferial clan is smaller than the four major clans, but we take pride in not being inferior to them. Next month, the members who couldn’t join this time will follow suit.”

Even if this bastard is next to him, he will only get in the way.

As soon as I had that thought, I immediately cut off and opened my mouth.

“Not required.”

“……?”

“I don’t need your help, so do it on your own.”

When I said it clearly, he flinched and stared at me.

And did you realize that my words were sincere?

“… I’m afraid you’re making a stupid choice. What if we find a way out first?”

“Looking at it, I don’t think that’s the case.”

“… You will regret it.”

“Oh, most of the guys who said that are gone.”

“her!”

The guy, who snorted as if he wasn’t praying, soon gathered all the members together and began to prepare for departure.

“really… Can I send it that way?”

Mule Armin expresses concern after seeing the situation.

“Ah, it’s definitely a bit too much to spend like this.”

I nodded as if I agreed, and called the guy who was about to leave immediately.

“wait for a sec.”

“… her! Have you changed your mind now?”

“Okay, come here.”

When I called out with a snap of my fingers, the boy obediently came to me even though he had a displeased expression on his face. And if he has something to say, he looks at me as if telling me to come on… … .

Poo-!

Since there was no time for each other, I quickly hit the back of the head.

“evil!!”

I expected it after seeing how shiny my hair was, but the taste wasn’t bad either.

“Hey, what are you doing!!”

“Oh, I just wanted to hit one so I hit it.”

“… … … what?”

Hearing my answer, the guy looked blank, but it wasn’t my concern.

so what can you do

Nothing but snorting and staring, right?

“This is the whole point. Then go on your way.”

“…….”

“Are there any problems?”

“… … After all, rumors are unbelievable.”

After that, as if he didn’t want to get entangled with me, he quickly took the members and left as if he was running away.

As I was giggling and laughing while watching that scene, Mule Armin asked me.

“… Why did you do that?”

Oh, that?

“I don’t think there will be a chance if it’s not now.”

“No chance?”

I just shrugged.

You can’t meet the guy who left behind, can you?

***

The one who left is the one who left, so there is nothing to regret.

Therefore, I focused on the remaining ones.

“Did you say Mul Armin?”

“Yes, Baron.”

“Let’s call it Mule.”

“I am honored. Baron.”

“So what are your plans for the future?”

“ah… I have something to tell the baron about that.”

“to me?”

I wanted to talk about something, but when I heard it, it was the story of the post that was posted on the community. The story about being trapped on an island and waiting for someone to come to the rescue.

“Seeing that I met the baron like this, it must be true that I was trapped on an island. So, I want to go there first.”

“The reason is?”

“Because the person who needs to be saved needs to be saved. Besides, it’s a place with no information anyway, so wouldn’t it be better than wandering aimlessly?”

“Well, that too.”

Mul was the exact opposite of that guy earlier.

I know it even though I haven’t had a long conversation.

That guy is pretty trustworthy.

“if… Can you hear me if there’s anything I need to be careful about here? I know it’s rude, but it will be a great help to protect the members who trusted me and followed me. Oh, and of course I will give you a reward.”

“What is the case?”

I smiled and told only two pieces of information in advance.

“If you see an island, take a good look at it. Last time I got close, I saw Tol-Lapupa floating around.”

“If it’s Tol-Lapupa… Aren’t they first-class monsters?”

“okay. It’s only him that’s been confirmed, but we can’t be relieved.”

“… To think that there could be more level 1 monsters, it was a truly dangerous area.”

Myul’s expression darkened after hearing the existence of a first-class monster.

“However, what is more dangerous than a first-class monster is ‘rainy season’.”

“It’s raining… … ?”

“On the 14th day, the rain of monsters fell from the sky, continuing until the 21st day. So we have to somehow find a place to hide in the meantime.”

When I told him the level of the monsters that appeared during the rainy season, Muel’s complexion turned white.

“That there would be no chance… That’s what it meant.”

“okay. Then we’ll leave, so take care of yourself.”

“yes?”

Muel was taken aback by the sudden farewell declaration, but I didn’t answer and turned around and headed for my colleagues.

Originally, I had to get my mind off of this.

One step, two steps, three steps… … .

‘Well, at this point, it’s about time to grab hold of it.’

why don’t you catch

Could it be that only 1st grade monsters and rain weren’t enough?

‘Sir, if this is the case, am I supposed to go the way I make a proposal first?’

The moment when such a thought just bloomed.

“That baron… … !”

Mule grabbed me from behind, and I turned slowly backwards with a confused expression.

“What is it?”

“that is… … .”

“Tell me quickly. Because I don’t have time.”

“… How about joining forces with the baron?”

Exactly what I wanted.

However, I casually looked up and down the mule.

“Hmm… … . with you?”

“yes. We will never let anything become a nuisance. Command will also be handed over to the baron.”

Having said that, Müll expressed that he had a lot of experience in this kind of exploration, as the ‘Armin Exploration Team’ had a small number of elites and professionally searched for Gabrillius’ arrangements.

It was all known information.

Yeah, like I said before, they’re quite famous.

That too in a very good way.

“The offer isn’t bad, but how do you distribute it?”

Soon after, when I cut off the realistic part and mentioned it, Mule pondered for a while before replying.

“The baron came here first, and he knows more, so I won’t be greedy.”

“Exactly in numbers.”

“I will not claim ownership of Maseok at all. Instead, please allow half for multiple exploration income, including integers.”

Heh heh, look at this guy.

No matter how good a person looks, an explorer is an explorer, right?

“Instead of dividing magic stones exactly in half, the share of exploration income including integers is 30%. Of course, we have priority.”

“In exchange for lowering the stake to 20%, can we get rid of the priority?”

“That doesn’t work.”

When I flatly refused, Mul’s eyebrows narrowed.

In fact, it seems that he is deeply troubled by the conditions that are different from slave contracts… … .

At this point, it was time to apply the final oil.

“Mul Armin, what remains is your choice. But keep this one thing in mind.”

I looked into the boy’s eyes and said.

“I, Yandel’s son, Bjorn, will never give up on my comrades under any circumstances.”

This one was really 100% pure sincerity.

But did that sincerity reach him?

“… … I will accept that condition.”

There were 20 high-class slaves.

***

Joining the Armin Exploration Team was a great harvest for me, so that the days spent on the rocky island did not feel wasted at all.

Should I say that the more I knew, the more true it was?

Four level 3 explorers.

4th grade twelve.

Three wizards in one priest.

A manpower composed of such a luxurious composition that it would not be understood that he had accepted the conditions that were tantamount to a slave contract.

‘I don’t think I’ll be able to get the 2nd rank once I get my hands and feet together.’

After the power check, we exchanged greetings with each member of the Armin Exploration Team.

“I am Bjorn, the son of Yandel. He wishes you well.”

“Tah, this is Charlotte Amblot, the wizard of the exploration team… … !”

“is it? I need to eat better. Have some beef jerky here.”

“Go, thank you!”

“Yes, what is your name?”

“B, this is Brian Amblot… … .”

“Amblot?”

“ah… … ! Charlotte is my sister.”

“Oh, both being explorers, that’s great! Then what’s your name there?”

“Ah, I… … .”

It took quite a bit of time to make a full statement, but it was worth it.

‘It’s a good sign.’

Fortunately, Hans was not hiding.
