Surviving the Game as a Barbarian - Surviving the Game as a Barbarian chapter 20

20 Rafdonia (4)

“Good work. Then go.”

“Good-bye!”

Erwen was prepared to leave quickly, without even saying a word.

It seems that the half-day study of abilities seemed to be quite difficult… … .

“Then I will come again!”

coming again?

Oh, I didn’t say that.

“Now I don’t have to take the time to come here.”

“Yeah?”

what are you surprised

This is normal.

you are not my colleague

“It will take some time for you to get used to your new ability. It would be better to spend more profitable time until the labyrinth is opened.”

Strictly speaking, it’s all about me.

Yesterday, I set a new goal.

The goal is to become a middle-class explorer and enter the 6th floor.

So there is much work to be done going forward.

First of all, I need to use 1.4 million stones to grow myself.

If possible, I would also like to receive professional fighting training. I haven’t been able to fully utilize the performance of this monstrous body yet.

In addition, you should acquire common sense and knowledge by reading books, and you should have time to wander around the city as much as possible and adjust to the price and culture.

In short, there is no reason to flirt with Erwen unless you have a business.

“exactly! Well, is that so?”

“I think you said you had a younger brother, but let’s meet and spend time together. You will have to go back into the labyrinth in three weeks.”

“yes… … .”

Erwen nodded with a sullen face.

Is it because I was his first colleague?

He seems to have some strange fantasies to me. To be honest, I can barely predict what kind of fantasy it will be.

But how to make the original business relationship last.

“I plan to stay here forever, so if something goes wrong, you can come here without any hesitation. I will help as much as I can.”

“Uh, really?”

“Aren’t we comrades?”

“Hehe, it is! I know!”

As soon as he threw a carrot, Erwen also left with a satisfied face.

Well, it’s still easy to handle.

After all, he decided to keep his friendship with Erwen.

It must also be some kind of relationship.

No matter how difficult the blood relationship, delay can be acquired.

Maybe it will help someday.

“… Are you too snob?”

Well, then what is it?

It’s not the time to hide.

After a quick shower, I went out and went straight to the library again. And I read the books for about five or six hours after being enchanted by the gist librarian I had seen the day before.

‘Isn’t there a house that sells something like soup?’

It’s a little late, but for lunch, we went to a cheap looking restaurant and stuffed mulgun stew with a few slices of bread.

The price is 450 stones.

It seems like it would be more cost-effective to have meals at a ryokan.

“This is Bjorn, son of Yandel, the greatest warrior!”

After eating, we visited the Angry Rhinoceros Inn where Ainar was staying.

Surprisingly, it was infested with barbarians.

“Are you sure you want to stay here too? Well thought! This place only takes 300 stones a day!”

What, 300 stones?

Surprised by the unbelievable price, I looked into it a bit, and there was a reason.

As soon as you enter the room with 5 narrow beds, the thick sweat that has matured for several days pierces your nose.

“Are five people sharing a room?”

“not! Ten warriors together!”

“… But only five beds?”

“You can set a time and take turns sleeping!”

It’s not really cheap, it’s just that several people paid for it.

Seriously, these guys have been earning 3,000 or 40,000 stones at most, so they probably didn’t have a choice.

“But what’s going on here?”

“We are looking for Penelin’s third daughter, Ainar.”

“If it’s Ainar, Penelin’s second daughter, I went out in the morning!”

She was also the second daughter.

Don’t change it in the end.

Anyway, after waiting for about an hour, Ainar returned from going out.

“Bjorn son of Yandel? Did something happen?”

Because each other is a barbarian, he said it outright.

“I want to fight with you.”

“Are you talking about Dalian?”

“Yes.”

Now I need training.

In the labyrinth, I accomplished more than any other barbarian, but pure combat skills alone will make me no match for them.

“It’s a little strange.”

Ainar tilted his head.

I don’t think it’s because it’s a difficult request… … .

“If that’s the case, wouldn’t it be enough to just go out to the vacant lot without having to ask?”

opening?

Soon Ainar led me out through the back door of the inn.

Barbarians, who were already in their thirteen, gathered there, waving their fists and rolling on the floor, sweating.

Well, maybe even blood.

“Ha ha ha ha! Your fist just got pretty heavy!”

“So are you!”

Somehow, it has been noisy outside since before.

These are just normal things for them.

The fairies were chattering and talking about the spirit’s voice.

While smiling bitterly at the barbarians who were fighting viciously as if they had met an enemy, Ainar asked.

“Is there any reason why the other person is only me?”

In fact, it is not.

I just thought that Ainar would grant my request. But now, if I say no, it would seem strange.

“Because it’s the only sword I use.”

“Do you want to learn how to fight a swordsman?”

“Yes.”

“If that’s the reason, I know. I have to go study writing in the morning, so if I come during this time, I will treat you as many times as you want.”

In other words, the schedule is empty from 5pm.

From now on, I will visit here every day.

“Are you going to start today?”

“Of course.”

After waiting for a while, Ainar went back to his room and came back with his sword.

“Einar and Bjorn face off!”

The other barbarians also stopped fighting and started to watch.

I came to learn, but I had no intention of losing in vain, so I grabbed the shield and raised the tension.

However, the result is… … .

“Then I will go!”

developed

Did it take you 3 minutes to lose your shield after just being slapped so damn hard?

He fights really well.

Still, it was a good time in many ways.

“Bjorn, son of Yandel, was not the greatest warrior of all time!!”

“Now Ainar is the greatest warrior ever!!”

“Wow!”

Except for these bastards.

***

How many more times have you been hit since then?

Soon the sky became dark.

“Are you going to do more? I also want to take a break.”

“not. Today’s Dalian will end here.”

The other barbarians had already left the vacant lot.

After much deliberation, I made a decision.

“Einar.”

“What’s going on?”

Ainar, who was walking towards the building while stretching his legs, stopped.

“Are you planning on going into the labyrinth alone again next time?”

“I guess so. Because I don’t have enough money to build a team. However, this time, if possible, I will try the second floor.”

Once again, I can feel how hardcore the barbarians live.

Compass and torch.

With these two things, you can advance to the second floor. But making money to buy consumables on the first entry, and going straight to the next floor with that money… … .

“Would it be difficult on my own?”

“Isn’t there a choice?”

no choice… … .

Perhaps, this is the reason why only humans were crowded on the lower floors.

These races, whose taxes are several times higher, can’t even pay their first-year taxes by working on the first and second floors.

It is clear from looking at the motive barbarians.

Didn’t the guy who earned the most earned more than 40,000 stones?

“If you are lucky, you may even be able to meet other people on the first floor and form a team.”

“Right.”

“So, what are you talking about?”

As the words seem to be getting longer, Ainar immediately asks the main point.

Like a barbarian, I spoke straight and straight.

“Ainar, would you like to be with me?”

“colleague?”

“I will bear the cost of setting up the team.”

I felt it after competing a few times today.

Ainar is strong.

Hearing what the people around me are saying, it seems that he is at the top of the class among the barbarians.

Above all else, he’s pretty smart.

“Thanks for the suggestion, but why?”

After all, you need a colleague.

It’s hard to find friends every night, and having a partner increases your profits.

However, Ainar not only has high combat power, but also has the advantage of not having to worry about betrayal due to the nature of the race.

Instead, the classes overlap, but… … .

Since Erwen is gone, Ainar is the best option I can choose.

Of course, there was no need for vulgar words.

“I just wanted to.”

“Right.”

Ainar nodded and immediately made a decision.

“good night. Entering the labyrinth with you, a clever warrior, would be something all warriors wish for.”

It’s a much more positive response than I thought.

Could this be a little more greedy?

“However, there are conditions.”

“Something?”

“Ratio I’ll have eight.”

“… … ?”

Ainar frowned at my abuse.

Could it be that you feel uncomfortable?

I opened my mouth again and continued the explanation.

“I don’t even pay the cost of forming a team. And I promise. At least the ratio will make you much more money than if you went into the labyrinth alone. Besides, I pay for all the other consumables—”

“Stop, no further explanation.”

“… … ?”

“The ratio is 8, so even if I say something difficult, I don’t understand it anyway. So let me know I trust you.”

“… Right.”

I had to admit that I had underestimated the barbarian race.

“I will take care of myself. Bjorn, son of Yandel.”

Ainar then came and slapped me on the back.

It was too heavy to be considered a favor, but… … .

Well, you better get used to it quickly.

“I’ll do my best.”

I have a reliable barbarian colleague.

***

the next morning.

I visited the Holy Land with Ainar.

The Holy Land is a kind of communal nurturing facility.

Barbarians who left for the city send their children here when they have children. Because they have to be warriors until the day they die, they can’t afford to raise children.

And the barbarians who left for the city as adults repeat this process again.

I don’t think it’s anything to worry about right now.

“Bjorn son of Yandel.”

Upon arrival, the chieftain comes out and greets us.

Shiba, this is why I didn’t want to come for a while… … .

“It is rare for a warrior who has left to come to visit. Have you come to learn to read like Fnelin’s second daughter, Ainar?”

Kongdak shook his head, calming his heart.

“Not like that. Chief, the reason I came to the Holy Land is different.”

“It’s something else… … .”

The chieftain looks at me with curious eyes.

Don’t be nervous.

Didn’t Ainar learn things like Barbarian’s way of speaking and calling him in advance?

You just have to make no mistakes.

“Tell me what it is.”

He took a deep breath and said calmly.

“I want to get a soul engraving.”

Different races have their own characteristics.

For example, fairies deal with spirits and dwarves deal with artifacts.

Barbarians have ‘Soul Engraving’.

It was a growth method that couldn’t be used in the beginning because it required a lot of money in the game… … .

Luckily, there was a huge amount of money over 1 million stones.

So, after much thought, I made a decision.

It’s still terrifying to stand in front of this fucking chieftain, but… … .

“To be precise, I want to receive the ‘immortal immortal engraving’.”

no doubt

This is the best way to spend your money.
