Chapter 42

Episode 42 The Wizard and the Barbarian (2)

Duk-

After the communication is cut off.

There was silence in her lab for a while.

Well, I wouldn’t have expected it at all.

At first, I was going to extort some money, but how did I know that I would suddenly have to pay five million stones.

‘Everyone here lacks imagination.’

In fact, it wasn’t that there was no way for her to win the argument.

If you asked the same question to any of the 9th grade explorers who make a living every day, the answer would have come back.

There would never have been such a breakdown of the argument.

However, the one she communicated with was an explorer who seemed capable at first glance.

‘If you’re a teacher, you’re talking about a master, but a person who gets to know someone like that in private can’t be an ordinary explorer.’

This served as a decisive defeat.

So now it’s time to take the fruit—

“Chuckling! A barbarian who can defeat a wizard with words. You’re more of a friend than I’ve ever heard.”

The one who opened the door without knocking and entered was a white-haired old man with wrinkled skin.

However, there is no place where the waist is bent, and it is not a characteristic that it looks very correct compared to its age.

Even though I was taken aback by the sudden intervention, I was able to infer the identity of this old man right away.

“Ah, I didn’t introduce myself. As for the old lady, I’m the teacher of the lady you just rang.”

“Oh, I didn’t cry!”

Raven’s master.

In other words, the master of the giant school Artemion, who independently uses as many as five floors in the Mage Tower.

In a way, he could be said to be as big as the regional head we met earlier, or in some ways even worse.

“Anyway, I heard the conversation between the two of you.”

“Yes? Did you hear? I’m sure the soundproofing magic is working—” ”

Ah, that would have to be reinforced a little more. No wonder there were so many blanks in the formula.”

Looking at the way he speaks, it seems as if he is looking at the elderly in the neighborhood, but since a position is a position, it somehow intimidates me.

There are things I did to a disciple who seemed to cherish it at first glance.

“Haa, you completely destroyed my magic circle. It would have been difficult even if you were a master to destroy it without me noticing… Why did you go that far and overhear it?”

The old man chuckled.

“Your youngest student brought a man for the first time. It’s a long time since he brought a living barbarian, wouldn’t you be curious?”

But something was strange about it.

“Are you alive?”

As I muttered involuntarily, the old man laughed heartily again.

“Cuckold! Most of them come dead! Or just a heart delivered!”

“……?”

“Facebook. It’s a joke. It’s a joke!”

Oh, I see.

Is this really a wizard joke?

Since I am also a barbarian who knows how to read the atmosphere quite a bit, I responded with a big smile instead of a straight face.

“Ha ha ha! I want to break your head!”

AKA Bavarian Joke.

“…what what?”

But why aren’t you laughing?

oh i didn’t do that

“Ha ha ha! It was a joke!”

No matter what bullshit you say, all you have to do is say it’s a joke, right?

“Then make a face and smile. Old man!”

“What old man…?”

“Oh, that was a joke too! Ha ha ha!”

“…….”

In response to my joke, the old man frowned as if he was uncomfortable with the artemion school master.

When I checked the side, Raven opened his mouth as if he couldn’t believe this situation.

“…Yandel-san, are you crazy?”

Is this a polite expression or is it just double-judgement?

I’m confused because I mixed honorifics…

‘I just made a mistake.’

Certainly, seeing him do this, I think I was a bit overdone just now.

Is it natural?

He made such a crazy joke in front of the head of a school in the Mage Tower on the subject of a fucking barbarian.

“Haa… I should have noticed when I saw the guild doing that…”

It was a little unfair though.

It sounds like an excuse, but in front of a barbarian who came back from the dead this morning, you joke about a dead barbarian or something?

“Because I was sensitive, I think I took a defensive attitude without even realizing it. I apologize if I offended you.”

It was a detailed explanation after a long time, but Raven shouted as if he was not praying.

“What a defensive attitude that is!”

“The best defense is offense.”

This is my theory that I have cherished all my life since I was very young.

‘So what should I do to clean things up?’

Glancing at it, the old man was still standing there with blank eyes.

It was a time when I began to sincerely worry about my safety as the time of silence continued.

“Keep hee hee hee! This is a very good friend!”

The old man suddenly began to laugh.

I don’t know why, but I laughed along with the atmosphere.

“Ha ha ha ha ha!”

“Hehehehehehe! He’s a very funny friend!”

Just looking at the cancer, I can feel the old man’s smile as if he was forced to be bold, but…….

If I do well, I think I can get over it.

“Never mind! Nobu is different from the other jjomsaengs who are sensitive to every word.”

My lips are shaking as if I still have resentment left to say that, but…….

I don’t think I need to say this.

‘I can guess what kind of character he is.’

I have a feeling how to deal with it.

“Haha! What kind of barbarian blood are you? Old is an understatement! How cool are you to take our joke? I’ve never seen such a bold wizard in my life!”

Although few people have ever seen a wizard in the first place.

something to know

“Cheolkeol Nobu doesn’t have that kind of side, he does. For some reason, he seems to be able to relate to you!”

“I agree!”

For a while, the bloody air lingered.

Hahahoho Raven makes a ridiculous expression as he sees us start to laugh.

“Haa… what the hell is this situation?”

Well I’m not sure either.

And I’m pretty sure that old man doesn’t know what this is all about.

“I am Bjorn, son of Yandel! Great wizard! I want to know your name!”

“It’s Bjorn Yandel! I’ve only been hanging out with the little wizards, and seeing you makes me feel better! It’s nice to meet you. The old lady is Deian Tvehirion!”

For some reason, even the old man introduced himself in a loud voice.

However, the stiff veins on his neck made the viewer concerned about his health, but… Let’s

pretend we didn’t see it.

“Awesome! It’s a man’s voice!”

I am Yandel Bjorn.

He is a barbarian who knows how to live a social life to that extent.

***

“So what did I say to those little kids then—”

“Awesome!”

“Huh? No word yet—”

“That would be great!”

After a few minutes of a similar reception conversation.

The old man seemed to have come back to his senses after boasting about himself, and quietly returned to the main topic like a serpent.

“So, what are you thinking about Aru?”

“Aru?”

“Ah, it’s like a nickname for our youngest disciple.”

Did you take Aru from Arua Raven?

This kind of culture seems to be everywhere.

“Anyway, with those five million stones, if the old woman—”

“I can’t do something that didn’t exist.”

Social life mode for a while.

When I stopped talking with a straight face, the old man clicked his tongue.

“Eh, tsk, who said he wouldn’t give it to you? If it’s okay with you, the old lady would like to replace it with something else…”

Then the story will change again.

“Something?”

“This one.”

He put his hand inside the robe the old man was wearing and took out a box the size of his palm.

However, I was more interested in the robe he was wearing than the box.

‘Could it be that the robe itself has a subspace attached to it?’

Well, you won’t give it to me even if I ask for it?

“What? Go ahead and open it.”

I licked my lips and opened the box, revealing a ring inside.

“It’s an object named Frost Spirit Ring.”

“Is it the ring of the Frost Spirit?”

The old man continued to explain the ring further to my self-talk, but I didn’t have to listen carefully.

Because it was something I was familiar with.

“Even though it’s from the 9,000th generation, if you’re an explorer, you know. How precious are number items.”

Numbers item.

It can only be obtained from the Guardian of the Rift, and each one has its own special ability.

In fact, except for ‘crafting’ and ‘discovery’, the number item is the only way to obtain equipment in [Dungeon and Stone].

Of course, most of them are expensive regardless of the number.

But…

“You’re very lucky, too. Maybe if you didn’t like it, I’d never give you this—” ”

So, no one uses it.”

No.9425 Ring of the Frost Spirit.

The Frost Spirit Ring, which only drops from cracks below the 3rd floor, has only one unique ability.

For reference, it is not an ability that is helpful in battle, but seals one of the essences absorbed by the wearer.

Of course, the stats are applied as is, and only the skills are sealed…

‘In that case, removing the essence from the temple is cheaper.’

Think about it.

Increasing the level becomes astronomically difficult.

However, if you wear this ring, all of the essential skills you have acquired will become inoperable.

It’s like losing one skill slot.

Rather than wearing this ring, future-minded explorers would choose to erase the essence from the temple and take a new one.

“But it must be a very useful thing for you, isn’t it?”

Well definitely not like that.

In the beginning, stats are more important than skill combinations. In addition, even if the skill of the corpse golem is poor, the stat value itself is a fairly high integer.

‘It’s not a bad item considering the fact that you can use the skill again if you remove the ring at any time. Just by itself.’

I finished the calculation in my mind.

In fact, I didn’t even think about rejecting it from the beginning.

Yes, the abilities just listed were only a tiny fraction of the true value of this ring.

‘Looking at how many times I’ve tried it, but no mention of it… I guess you really don’t know about that event?’

Wizards are the best intellectuals in this worldview.

However, in ‘Blood Citadel’, Raven was convinced when he saw that he did not know how to obtain ‘Tears of the Goddess’ hidden under the stone statue.

Even so, they are all newbies in my eyes.

In any game, there is no existence that is as easy to cheat as a newbie.

“What are you so worried about? To be honest, this ring isn’t worth five million stones. But it’s not something you can get just because you want to.”

“I see.”

I nodded as if I agreed.

Even in the game, the auction house price was only about 1.5 million stones, but there were no items for sale, so I only got this ring less than once out of ten. ‘But how

did you get this precious thing like this?’

In the first place, I didn’t expect to receive all five million stones.

In fact, that old man took it out with the intention of handing over something useless and sending it.

He’s probably laughing at me, saying that I’m a stupid barbarian on the inside.

” Got it. Use it well.”

Well, is that the same for me, sir?

“Think of it as an old lady’s gift.”

Looking at the old man with a friendly

smile, I

thought S~eaʀᴄh the nôᴠel Fire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

“Mr. Yandel, it’s a bit like today, isn’t it? After going through that much, you must be tired, so let’s meet again in two days and talk about the

rest

?

”

“I’m sorry, Master, it’s because of me…”

“That’s okay, it wasn’t sold anyway. That barbarian guy will be quite upset if he finds out how much that ring costs later.”

“…Is that so?” Fortunately, it doesn’t

seem like he’s particularly upset about Bjorn

he brought .

“But why did you do that earlier?”

Today, the teacher’s attitude was very heterogeneous.

He hates rude people. He

never disparaged his fellow mages by calling them short-lived.

“Oh, if that’s the case, there’s one thing to check.”

“Confirmation? ”

“You don’t need to know that,”

she said with a brusque expression.

This made it clear that there was some intention in adjusting Bjorn’s tension,

but … It’s because there is no way to know.

“Anyway, he’s an unusual guy. It’s so unique that I can’t help but look forward to it. I hope I’m right…”

“Are you going to keep doing that? If you’re going to tell me, would you just let me know!”

“I’ll tell you later when the time is right. Oh, when the time comes, I’ll write a detailed account of what happened with that barbarian and post it to me.”

“You won’t tell me why?”

“I’ll tell you when it’s clear.”

Soon after, her teacher smiled politely as usual and left the lab.

Looking at the empty seat, I felt uncomfortable for some reason.

‘What the hell is Master thinking?’

I wondered if I had brought Bjorn here for no reason.

It was because I remembered that the words of those whom the teacher had such an interest in were not all good

.

Thinking of him who destroyed the guild with the body of a 9th grade explorer, she felt uneasy for some reason

.

A guild and a magic tower are distinctly different.

They are not a group that can be swung by a single barbarian
