Chapter 243
Episode 243 Turning point (3)
The moment the body of the prospective marquis leaned toward Bjorn Yandel, a man watching the situation from afar laughed.
‘The rumors were true.’
Even the word maniac is not enough.
Doing such tricks in front of the chancellor?
‘Maybe he believes that the chancellor and other nobles won’t blame him.’
Well, looking at it, there was nothing I couldn’t understand.
An aristocrat soon-to-be marquis and an explorer-turned-barbarian now holding the title of baronet.
Not only was the difference obvious…
Due to the nature of the territorial aristocratic society, more outright bullying was frequent, and it was implicitly tolerated.
It’s kind of tame.
But…
‘Still, I’ll have to recognize the boldness.’
The reserve marquis is not a knight.
I just ate a few essences to create an intimidating appearance.
But to challenge the explorer who is known to have won against the corpse collector in a hand-to-hand fight
…….
Belatedly, the man remembered that Bjorn Yandel was suffering from the aftereffects of the last battle.
Did the miasma infiltrate the brain?
At the last consolation banquet, it was said that I was sweating profusely just by walking normally.
Maybe the Marquis did something like that too.
‘……It’ll just make me feel better.’
Soon, the man frowned at the future that came to mind.
Aristocratic malice hidden in splendor.
A hero who suffers humiliation in front of everyone.
It wasn’t a scene I wanted to see on a long outing—
“Huh?”
The man tilted his head.
This is due to completely unexpected results.
Despite the tricks of the prospective marquis, the barbarian’s body did not budge.
‘……How much has it recovered already?’
Great.
That was when I was thinking about it.
The barbarian’s shoulder muscles, which could not be concealed by clothes made of cloth, twitched.
and that moment.
“Ah!!”
A reserve marquis who fell backwards as if a reaction had come.
“…….”
Even the music stopped and silence came.
I didn’t understand at all.
‘…You’re pushing the marquis out here?!’
An act you would never do if you thought about taking care of yourself.
For some reason, the man whose empathy level went up became even more dizzy.
It was a pleasure to see that his physical condition had improved and he had not been subjected to low-level manipulation, but…
‘I should have just pretended not to know.’
If it was a man, I’d rather be ‘haha, did your legs loosen up? I’ll have to get some exercise’ and then I’ll turn around later.
Because there is no risk that way.
Well, if it was a barbarian, it was a barbarian-like act.
‘……If he was real, he wouldn’t have done it this way.’
So, are you also a native barbarian?
The man was disappointed, but kept an eye on the situation.
Still, it was something I didn’t know.
This may also be one big picture…….
even if it’s not him.
Isn’t Bjorn Yandel the one who is suspected of being a player because of his outstanding growth?
‘Let’s watch for now.’
It was a time when I was giving strength to my eyes with such a heart.
“Bjorn, son of Yandel.”
The chancellor called out the barbarian’s name in a troubled voice.
That too was already known.
As well as the actions of the prospective marquis, how this barbarian responded to them.
‘Then, how will I overcome this situation?’
The man did not let go of his expectations for a reversal until the end and waited for the barbarian’s mouth to open.
It didn’t take long.
Soon, the barbarian shouted as if it was unfair.
“…I didn’t do anything wrong!”
A protest without any logical defense, like a child in a crowd.
“It’s real! I was there and he just used me to roll forward!”
They even go so far as to openly attribute the responsibility to the marquis.
The man was somewhat disillusioned.
“Marquis! Tell me too! I just felt like doing forward rolls!”
Within the community, Yandel experiencers who said that Bjorn Yandel couldn’t be a player came to mind.
Only then did I understand what they were saying.
‘Is this the modern man…?’
The man’s eyes grew cold as he looked at the barbarian.
***
The awarding ceremony is over.
To be honest, I don’t really remember how it went.
I was bored.
The Prime Minister made a speech with all sorts of rhetoric that existed in the world, and with the words, “I am conferring titles on behalf of the royal family,” I became a full-fledged aristocrat of this country.
And the banquet began.
‘Nimiral.’
It’s different from the previous condolences.
At that time, many nobles made friends with me or came to me out of curiosity, but…
“…….”
No one is around now.
Baron Martoang, as well as the count who tried to promote an arranged marriage, are watching from afar.
A totally different treatment from the marquises and viscounts over there surrounded by many nobles.
Well, it’s not that I don’t understand.
Because I was properly stamped by the Marquis for this incident.
‘Haha, it’s because of a strange bastard.’
Now that this has happened, I comfortably hold a piece of meat in my hand and tear it apart, recalling what happened earlier.
[Bjorn, son of Yandel.]
How to overcome the situation where even the chancellor looks at him as if rebuking him.
The answer I gave then was this.
An ignorant barbarian mode that always came to me when I was in trouble and helped me a lot.
[…I didn’t do anything wrong!]
Everyone who knows should know that the marquis is to blame anyway.
I just decided to go out boldly.
In the first place, political lines don’t suit a barbarian that well.
[It’s real! I was there, but he just used me to roll forward!]
As expected, the chancellor didn’t say anything to my words.
[……Rolling forward?]
These are the guys who used to only hold pens at their desks.
No matter how smart or improvised you are, you are inexperienced in this kind of conversation.
[marquis! tell me too! I just felt like doing forward rolls!]
Even the nobles who accepted my actions as a challenge changed their attitude as the Ignorance Barbarian Mode continued.
I realized.
Literally, barbarians are a completely different race.
[……Tell Kariot Kudo. Is that true?]
Soon after, the chancellor looked at the marquis with a cold gaze and said, and the marquis replied in a fright.
[How could that be! That barbarian dared to push me without even knowing the subject—]
[Stop.]
[…?]
Seeing the marquis bewildered at the end of his speech, the chancellor just stared at him with a hearty smile without saying anything.
Unspoken pressure not to make things big.
[Yes… that’s right…]
In the end, the marquis had no choice but to admit that he wanted to roll forward.
Yes, that action also meant that the prime minister raised my hand in this case.
More than aristocrats, he had that level of attention.
‘…This man, the prime minister, is also uncomfortable with something.’
Anyway, so or not.
The conferment ceremony resumed as if nothing had happened, and it ended with the essences decided two days ago delivered to me in a luxurious box.
And now.
‘Should I just go back…’
Sitting alone at the wide round table eating meat, the desire to return home began to boil.
‘Well then, let’s eat one more plate and go.’
After making my decision, I asked the servants at each table to bring me another plate full of meat.
how long has it been like that
‘huh?’
When I turned my gaze to the approaching person, I saw a man, not the meat platter I was waiting for.
“Haha, nice to meet you, Baron Yandel.”
The first aristocrat who approached first at this banquet where he was thoroughly bullied.
As soon as our eyes met, the barbarian’s intuition spoke.
something suspicious
No……
“I am Hans of Baron Ifreia.”
this man is dangerous
***
Hans Eifreia.
In short, Hans I.
“…You’re more reticent than I thought, aren’t you?”
As the youngest member of the baron family, he did not have a title, but he was still breathless.
A ‘Hans’ with aristocratic traits?
Isn’t this the type of Hans I’ve never seen before!
“I am Bjorn, the son of Yandel.”
After making a rough statement, he said he was busy and was about to leave.
But then.
“Hehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehe is Baroness Yandel.”
The meat platter I ordered in advance arrived.
The waitress brought me a pile of meat on three plates, probably considering my appetite today.
“……thanks.”
Words of gratitude came out without my knowledge.
But what else is this?
“This is the first time…”
The servant stared at me with a thrilled expression somewhere.
“I’ve never heard anything like that while doing this job…”
Ha real noble bastards.
Soon after, the servant stood up behind me and waited for the next request, asking me to tell him anything he wanted me to do.
‘……I just wanted to go.’
For some reason, I think it will hurt you unintentionally.
So I grabbed the meat with one hand.
“You’re still eating. If it’s not rude, would it be all right if I listen to you?”
An ordinary aristocrat would have readily granted such a request, or would have turned it down and turned it down.
But I am a barbarian in this city.
“That’s a bit inconvenient.”
He said that he was uncomfortable.
Then Hans I’s eyes narrowed.
“Hmm, that’s a little different from what I’ve heard.”
Some meaningful words and eyes.
So I asked.
“Is it different?”
“Ah, such a slip of the tongue. I just thought it was not someone who would be uncomfortable with such a thing.”
what is this kid?
The youngest member of a baron family without a title, he is strangely relaxed.
Also, his name is Hans.
‘……Why did you approach me?’
Looks like I need to think about it.
After a moment of thought, I spoke naturally.
“You should eat a plate too. It’s a bit uncomfortable for me to eat alone.”
“Aha, that’s what it meant.”
At my words, Hans I ordered the food he wanted from the servant.
The time just the two of us was born like that.
“Nice to meet you. I was bored because I was still alone.”
I held out my hand holding the meat to him without even wiping it, and Hans I held my hand while hesitating for a moment.
With a disliked face.
‘It’s more suspicious because it’s like this.’
What is the reason to stick to this place, even shaking hands with juicy hands?
I opened my mouth to find out.
It was big enough that there would be no discomfort even if the pieces of meat he was chewing bounced on his face.
“Yes! Hans Eifreia? I liked it! Let’s be close!!”
“…….”
“Why don’t you want to be friends?”
When I asked him, he smiled awkwardly as he removed the pieces of meat from his face one by one with his hands
. …..”
“Haha, I like it!”
The meal he ordered arrived soon after, and we ate together and chatted.
Congrats on getting the title.
The weather is nice today.
Most of them are like that. It was small talk, and at some point Hans I didn’t even touch the plate.
That’s right, the pieces of meat that flew out of my mouth all went into his plate.
“Why aren’t you eating?
”
“Hmm, it’s inconvenient for me to eat alone…”
A word meaning to take it out quickly if there is a purpose or turn it off.
If so, how will this guy react?
The answer was really simple
. I’ll get out of the way.”
Hans I rose from his seat without hesitation.
Then…
“Have a nice meal.”
He
immediately kicked off the seat and left.
Did you really just want to get to know each other?
“…….”
I just left, so I felt more uncomfortable this way.
***
Early evening when the day started to fade
. I got out and got on the carriage heading home.
Didn’t I meet Hans?
I have no idea what kind of incident I will get involved in in this place full of nobles.
‘Let’s start with the essence.’
As soon as I came out of the palace, I asked for permission from Keplow, who started escorting me closely again, and opened a test tube bottle
.
Corpse Golem Orc Hero Manticore.
The circumstances in which they ate the essence were all different, but in the end, they all took the essence after breaking the test tube.
Either way, it can’t be recycled.
Huh.
Put your nose to the entrance of the test tube and take a deep breath. Existing essence is absorbed into the body like smoke.
「The character’s soul is permeated with the ‘Essence of Bayon’.」
Level 3 monster Bayon.
There was only one reason for choosing this guy in the end.
In fact, right now, ‘Vol-Herchan’ It’s more advantageous to take the essence and prepare for it and increase combat power, but…
Because the difficulty of obtaining it is greatly different
. ‘
Bol-Herchan is a cluster entity, and it is easy to meet when you go to the field, while ‘Bayon’ is difficult to meet, and the characteristics of the field that comes out are also very
difficult .
There’s no such significant difference.’
In addition, considering the effects of the following spirit imprints, this is a more reasonable choice:
“Soul power increases by +100.”
“Soul regeneration increases by +30.”
“Muscle power increases by +25.
” …..」
「…….」
Fullness that seems to rise from the depths of my heart. New
vitality conveyed by small physical stats. ‘
It
‘s late today, so I can only go to the training ground tomorrow.’
Feeling sorry for not being able to use the newly acquired power right away, I closed my eyes again.
How long
had
passed
since then
?
I can feel it!”
Keplow, a human-born knight with a talent for magical powers unlike the barbarians, shouted.
And…….
“You have to get off!”
There was a huge explosion and all sides were wrapped in flames.
Qua Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
In a moment, a wagon.
Piiiii Iii-!
The cries of the knights have been heard between the tinnitus who began to hover in the ear.
”
Assassin! The assassin came !!”
