Bjorn Yandel the Barbarian

As soon as I turn on the computer, a cheerful beep greets me.

“Note……?”

When I hurriedly checked my note box, a note with an unverified mark appeared at the top.

The sending time is just a few seconds from now.

I mean they sent me a note as soon as the community opened…….

clack clack.

Once I opened the message, I checked it.

[Sender: Ghost master.]

[I’d like to talk to you for a moment.]

One short line.

Below that, only the name and password of the secret chat room were written.

“Hmm……”

What should I do?

If you accept that invitation now, Lee Baek-ho will be waiting for you.

I was a little worried, but it didn’t take long to make a decision.

‘…I can finish it quickly. I wonder what he called me for.’

Maybe a conversation with the GM will give you a clue that will help you deal with Lee Baek-ho.

Yeah, why don’t you be a little late?

If that’s the case, will Lee Baek-ho just leave?

“It’s been a while. Mr. Investigator.”

Soon after entering the chat room, a white man with the nickname ‘Elfnunalove’ stands up to greet me.

I immediately sat down on the sofa without answering the greeting.

“So what happened this time?”

“I released Ben as the lion asked, but where did you meet Baekho?”

A bet of condescension.

“Did you call me just to talk about that?”

“No, it can’t be.”

Soon after, GM sat down on the sofa and continued talking.

“I heard an interesting story at the round table last time. Didn’t ‘Elfnuna’ say that you have already entered this world?”

It was also because of this.

I was proud of the idea that the bait I had sprinkled on worked well, but I tried to maintain a serious expression.

“however?”

“I’ll ask you directly. Is ‘Elfnuna’ you?”

Even as a barbarian who likes the main topic, it was a bit embarrassing question.

I didn’t know you could ask such a stupid question.

“Well, why should I answer?”

When I said it smirkingly, GM responded immediately.

“Because I was the one who unwrapped Baekho’s ban. Do you really think I would have granted such a request for my own comfort?”

To say that I wasn’t scared, I can still remember the cold sweat I had at that time.

But it wouldn’t be a made-up word at all.

“You have what I need, and I also have what you need.”

Give and take.

The GM also had a wish for me, so I gave Lee Baek-ho a card called Ben.

As the saying goes, keep your enemies closer than your allies.

It would have been regrettable for the GM to give up the information I provided at the round table. I would have wanted to listen to the request and watch it.

‘But in the midst of that, as soon as ‘Elfnuna’ was mentioned, he called me right away…’

At this point, my curiosity grows even more.

“Please answer me if you want to keep the current relationship. Is ‘Elfnuna’ you?”

Why is GM so obsessed with ‘Elfnuna’?

I mentioned the nickname at the round table because I wanted to clear up these questions.

That’s why…….

“Before I answer, I ask one thing first.”

I asked.

Of course, if you ask me openly, you don’t seem to know too much, so I turn around as much as I can like an investigator.

“Do you believe what the old man said?”

It was kind of floating.

I’ve had conversations with newbie GMs in past eras.

[I’m not sure, but I think I know who the person who said the last thing was.] [

He was very famous in the Stone Iven community… He’s also someone I respected a lot.]

At the time, the GM mistook me for Gavis , I said that.

Therefore, I reasoned that the GM’s obsession with Elf-sister might be because he believed Aurlil Gavis.

But…

“There is no reason not to believe it. At least the recorder’s story was true.”

A very strange answer came back.

‘Recording stone…?’

It was the first word I heard.

***

What is the Recording Stone?

‘Is it like the legacy of the great sage, like the debris of the record that was blown away in the past?’

I didn’t know it, but I got the feeling that it was important information.

A key that might solve all my doubts.

But I didn’t show it off and listened to the story in silence.

“As expected, there is no one but him. If not him, who else can clear the original difficulty?”

Maybe because I didn’t know about the scorer’s table, GM’s story sounded like something was missing.

But at least one thing was known.

“No matter what anyone says, it’s impossible without him.”

A GM’s beliefs are similar to those of a fanatic.

The eyes of my aunt, who had fallen for pseudoscience, were just like that.

“…….”

As the person responsible for that belief, for some reason, a physiological awkwardness came first.

It was time to make a quick decision.

“Now then, tell me. Master Lion, are you really an ‘Elfnuna’?”

A question that has already been repeated several times.

I was quite worried.

If that blind faith and liking were not acting, at least I could use them. Maybe I can put the GM in as my colleague.

“I am not him.”

But in the end, the decision I made was this.

It would be a lie if I said I didn’t like the information about the record table and the various foundations that GM has built over a long period of time…

‘Yes, this is right.’

At least I decided that it was right to answer that question after researching what a ‘recording stone’ was. Most irreversible mistakes are caused by ignorance.

[You must not open the door to the abyss.]

……What the witch said at that time kept bothering me.

“…Is that so.”

Fortunately, GM readily agreed and moved on.

I wanted to point out and ask if there was some basis for asking.

It just seemed like something I had been thinking about.

“Then tell me about ‘Elfnuna’. Where is he now? What kind of—”

In response to the ensuing questions, I cut it off.

“That’s rude.”

“……yes?”

“Your honest answer to the first question was a courtesy for keeping your promise to me.”

To put it simply, this means that the reward for solving Lee Baek-ho’s ban ends here.

“…….”

Looking at the GM with a bewildered expression, my conscience was stabbed quite a bit, but I couldn’t help it.

Isn’t it strange that you say you don’t know here?

Cancer At times like this, it’s best to just use the concept and move on.

“If you want my favor, do yours too.”

“…So you’re saying that you have to pay for it.”

The rules of the lions that have been handed down from the round table.

“But… isn’t this too unfair?”

As expected, dissatisfaction came out of GM’s mouth.

But what are you going to do?

“I took the risk and solved Lee Baek-ho’s ben. However, it ended with just one question—”

“I was looking at the wrong person.”

“……?”

“Do you really think so? That information about ‘him’ is of equal value to undoing Lee Baek-ho’s ban in just a few seconds?”

“That’s…”

The GM became dumb as it was, and the conversation ended with this.

“If you understand, let’s go.”

After saying that, I left the chat room in a hurry.

***

Lee Han-soo’s room, which came back after finishing eating and running like that.

“Whoa…….”

After sighing, I checked the chat room by manipulating the mouse.

[Long live Korea’s independence] – 2 people are online.

Two people……

One must be Lee Baek-ho and the other Hyeon-byeol.

Fortunately, it seemed that I didn’t leave just because I came right away.

‘Let’s organize our thoughts for a moment and then go in.’

Leaning back in my chair, I recalled the conversation I had just had with the GM.

[There is no reason not to believe it. At least the story of the recorder’s stone was true.]

Nothing is certain yet, but the reason Lee Baek-ho cares about Elf-sister may have something to do with the recorder’s stone.

‘…if it’s possible, I’ll try it with Lee Baek-ho this time.’

Okay, good thing I went to the GM first.

After finishing organizing my thoughts, I clicked the mouse and entered the chat room.

“……I can’t even say it! If Hansoo hyung finds out, I’ll die!”

“If only the two of us know, how will Hansoo oppa know—”

Two people sitting on a sofa in front of a fireplace and having a suspicious conversation. I was watching for a while because I wanted something, but unfortunately I noticed it from the other side.

“Hee!”

Lee Baek-ho is startled as if he had seen a ghost.

“…….”

Hyeonbyeol, who was next to me, also flinched and looked at me with the expression he had when he made a mistake.

“What are you guys doing?”

At my question, Lee Baek-ho jumped up and ran to me, and hurriedly made excuses.

“Hyung! I didn’t do anything wrong! Sister Hyeonbyeol asked me to tell her who I was, so I just said no!”

Somehow it seemed like that.

When I saw Hyeon-byeol with the meaning of “Is it true?” Hyeon-byeol avoided my eyes and glared at Lee Baek-ho.

“…As expected, Mr. Baek-ho Lee was a person you couldn’t relate to?”

A voice that seems to speak only the truth without emotion.

“Haha sister! It’s not like that—”

“Why am I Baekho Lee’s older sister?”

“Yes? Just call me that before—.”

“Does Lee Baek-ho look the same now as before?”

“…….”

Every time he said something, Hyeonbyeol cut it like a knife and let out a sharp voice.

‘……Well, I did keep a secret from Hyunbyeol.” At

the moment I was about to step out and sort things out.

‘No, wait a minute.’ I

suddenly had that thought.

Why do I have to defend him?

Because I’m in trouble while trying to kill or save each other, a bastard who literally made a ‘boom’ sound and bounced off

?

Recalling the futility, anger and humiliation I felt that day, I made up my mind:

“Hyeonbyeol.” A voice

that resonated

as low as coldly sinking emotions

.

“I’m out for a while. I have something to talk about with him. Let’s do it again later.”

“Okay…….”

Hyunbyeol also left the chat room without saying anything, perhaps because he had committed a crime.

And…….

“…….”

“…….”

In the chat room where only the two of them were left, there was an awkward atmosphere for a while.

In that state, Baekho Lee opened his mouth first

.

I didn’t.

Did you get angry? Is this

what you’re talking about here? “Okay, tell me the conclusion.” ”

……

?

” .. No, it’s Misha…….”

Lee Baek-ho scratched his neck with a cheeky face.

However, far from making it seem funny, it only makes me more wary.

That’s right , I know.

In fact, how calculated judgments you make.

This appearance you see now is all intentional.

“That’s what I’ve been thinking about…….”

“…….”

“Surprise! In the end, that Lee Baek-ho decided to give it back! wow! clap clap clap! It’s a slope!”

Is this guy really crazy?

“…….”

Though he was just straight-faced at the judgment that he was swept away by the atmosphere the moment he accepted it, Lee Baek-ho didn’t care and continued his unique tension.

“How is it, hyung? Do you understand my sincerity now? Was it really a joke back then? Joke Joke! Just Kidding!”

“…….”

“I Cha-am! Are you still mad? now let go of it yes? You have to look nationally! In a big way!”

“Haa……”

Finally, an unbearable sigh came out of my mouth.

“Uh! sighed! did it happen? Are you upset now? yes? Right?”

“Why did you mean that by sighing?”

“Ah, you’re doing that again for nothing.”

“…….”

Come to think of it, I’ve always been weak against this type.

I don’t know if I can put a fist in my mouth “Stop talking nonsense .

So when are you going to return it?”

“Any time. Shall we send it tomorrow?”

“Oh. send it right away Don’t tell me what happened with you and me. Can you?”

“Yes. In the first place, when you hear the news about hyung, you would say that you will go straight to him?”

“You… how can you not speak that way?”

“Yeah? Why?”

“…….”

“Hehe, I got it. I won’t. Don’t be angry. Hyung.”

“Haa…….”

I tried my best not to get involved in this atmosphere,

but it wasn’t easy.

‘It would have been embarrassing if I said I couldn’t return it.’

“Then, are you done talking about Misha? Can we talk now?”

“Next?”

“Yes! I heard that if you send Misha the other day, you’ll do what I ask for?”

“You said you heard it.”

“That’s it. What’s your brother to lose?”

“That’s up to me to decide. So tell me. What exactly can you do for me if I help you break through the 10th floor?”

“A lot. I’ve already done that.”

“……?”

When I sent a glance to tell him not to drag on, Lee Baek-ho opened his mouth with a proud face.

“The Marquis of Tercerion.”

“Prime Minister?

” Bastard, I can’t touch you anymore.”

……What are you talking about again?
