Novel from https://noblemtl.net

Mozlan’s work was swift and swift.

“Kuk, I’m a great wizard… Yes? who are you… … ?”

“That’s right, let’s go get it.”

The knights grabbed Dwalky’s head, checked his face, and quickly restrained his arms.

“Hey, what are you doing over there? … .”

The drunken dwarf also came to his senses and tried to figure out the situation, but to no avail.

“You don’t need to know.”

“Ha, but… … .”

“Are you dissatisfied with our way?”

If you nod your head, it seems to be dragging you along.

I covered the dwarf’s mouth and answered instead.

“none.”

“… Are you a little Balkan? Unwise a barbarian.”

The tone and eyes that are difficult to hear as compliments.

As soon as they left the pub with the drunken Dwalkie, the dwarf started to fuss.

“Bjorn! They must be doing something wrong. He, that friend would never have done such a thing!”

It’s definitely not wrong.

An insult to the nobility?

I don’t know if it’s a pseudonym. To be honest, it is difficult for me to understand the offense of insult.

but… … .

“We have to help!”

What should I do to save my comrades who have been taken away by public authorities?

I closed my eyes.

“Hikurod, Ji, calm down. Bjorn has an answer for that!”

Whoo, I was just going to rest today… … .

Why is this happening again?

***

Before I could do anything, I needed to get a clear picture of the situation.

That’s because we don’t have any information yet.

I don’t even know if they insulted the real nobles, or if they just misunderstood, or who framed them.

So, I left the pub and headed to where Mozlan’s office is located.

However… … .

“Wait until the investigation is officially closed.”

Even within the game, the closed and arrogant Mozlans did not give any information.

So I went to Shabin.

“He was taken away by Mozlan… … ? I’ll take a look. I can’t guarantee you’ll figure something out, but… … .”

“That was enough. Thank you.”

“no.”

Since Shabin is still a civil servant, he decided that it would be easier to access information than an explorer on the ground.

“… … Will you be alive?”

“Hikurod! I know you’re worried, but please stop making noises and stay still!”

“Oh, I see.”

It was a time of waiting for Shabin’s reply and waiting all day in front of the Mozlan office building.

“Uh, huh? Isn’t that a Dwalkie?”

“Looks right.”

Dwalky, with his shoulders drooping, came out through the front door. Contrary to the dwarf’s worries, there seemed to be no signs of torture or any injuries.

“you! Are you okay? How did the investigation go? Oh, so that means I’ve got something wrong, doesn’t it? Yes, I knew it!”

“ah… that is… … .”

For some reason, Dwalky just bows his head without being happy or happy when he sees us.

“… … Let’s change seats. Then I will tell you everything.”

Once, he moved to his seat according to Dwalky’s will.

A tavern in the form of a room that was often visited during labyrinth-related meetings. After a few snacks and the beer he ordered, Dwalky opened his mouth in a sad voice.

“I guess… I think I’ll have to leave the team.”

After Erwen and Ainar, this is already the third kind of speech I hear.

The dwarf flagged

“No, what are you talking about! Tell me more!”

“that is… … .”

Dwalkie, who had a shaky tail, let out a long breath.

“It would be ridiculous to come and hide now. In fact, there is something I have not revealed to you until now.”

“You didn’t tell me?”

“My brother… Baron Martoan.”

“What?”

“So, are you really saying you are a noble?”

Everyone, including Misha, opened their mouths in shock, but Dwalkie kept her eyes closed and continued speaking.

“About half of that. Because I am the child of the former Baron Martoin and the maid in the mansion.”

illegitimate son of a noble family.

It is not a very unfamiliar kind of story to me, who has been exposed to many extreme dramas in modern times.

In fact, the development since then has not changed much.

“Because he was the richest man in the family, he was adopted as soon as he was born by the third younger brother of the baroness, adoptive father Tirva. Of course, it was just a formality, but it was my mother who actually raised me.”

Still, the baron regularly sent me money, and thanks to that, I was able to learn magic and grow up prosperous.

A complicated family history continued just by listening.

The dwarf didn’t seem to have the time to wait slowly.

“So what does that have to do with leaving the team?”

“A year ago, my father, Baron Martoin, passed away. And my second brother took his place.”

“Hmm, not the first?”

Rottmiller’s question in the middle.

Dwalky continued speaking in an open voice.

“exactly. the second son That is the problem.”

“I don’t understand, why is that a problem… … ?”

“After my ex-baron passed away, many people died. From the first older brother to the many other collaterals… … .”

Those words were enough.

Baron Martouan’s bloody power struggle is to figure out the cause of this case.

“It was the second brother who sent Mozlan.”

“exactly. Perhaps a warning, live as quietly as you have always been.”

“But now?”

“I think being an explorer bothered me. I’ve been learning a lot of magic lately… … There are famous people on the team, so he must have been concerned.”

Ah, uh, um… … .

Are you blaming me here?

To be honest, I don’t think this is a leap, but… … .

I summarized Dwalky’s words briefly.

“Anyway, does that mean that you can’t go into the labyrinth anymore because the second brother is afraid?”

“You… I don’t think there is any way to turn around and say anything. no wrong but… Whatever my will, it would have been the same.”

“What do you mean?”

“They took away permission to enter my labyrinth instead of punishing them for insulting the nobility.”

Simply put, it means that even if you want to be together, there is no way to do that.

“Bjorn, is there something wrong with this?”

The earnest eyes of the dwarfs, including Misha, turned to me.

I quietly closed my eyes.

And rather than looking for the answer to a problem that could not be answered, I thought about what day it is today.

‘Huh, I’m in a bit of a headache.’

Nine days left until the next labyrinth opens.

Will he be able to find a new mate before that?

I don’t really go anywhere easily.

***

“For now, let’s think about this issue individually and then we’ll meet again tomorrow to talk.”

“Yeah, you can’t think of the right number right away. That’s right.”

I ended up disbanding after making an appointment the next day.

The dwarf and Dwalkie seem to have decided to have a drink in a quiet place, and Rottmiller returns home.

By the way, I decided to head to the library.

“Eh? Are you going to the library?”

“I had a business with the librarian at that time.”

“… … At this late hour?”

“If you go quickly, we will arrive before closing.”

“I see… … Ho, would you like me to go with you?”

What is it, boy?

“Okay, you go and rest.”

“No, there’s nothing I can do about it when I go back… … .”

“Why don’t you do anything? If you have time, swing your sword one more time. Didn’t you play the whole thing today?”

After sending Misha who insisted on persistently following me, I hurriedly headed to the library.

Originally, I was supposed to take a good rest today and go tomorrow… … .

Things have changed a bit.

***

“In Par City… … .”

Upon arriving at the library, the dormant librarian is mechanically enchanted and flinched.

“you are… … .”

“Come to think of it, I never made a formal name for it. Bjorn, son of Yandel.”

“… Of course I know that.”

Well, that would be it.

Anyway, there was silence for a while after that conversation.

I mean, there’s something wrong with him.

“… It’s closing time soon, are you going to go in?”

“No, I didn’t come to read the book today.”

“… then?”

How should I describe my situation?

After thinking for a while, like a barbarian, I went straight to the point.

“Ragna Ritaniel Peprok.”

“You can call it abbreviated as it is convenient for you.”

“Ragna, what rank are you a wizard?”

I asked a cool question, but there was no answer for a long time.

Those eyes that look like there are all sorts of rude people out there.

Seriously, Raven also got angry when she was asked such a question.

“I will ask you this. Why are you suddenly curious about that?”

Ragna calmly asks the reason, whether he is a milder type than Raven.

So I answered without hiding.

“Something happened that the wizard on the team was unable to enter the labyrinth. So, what is it like to take a break from work as a librarian and go into the labyrinth together—”

“Rejection.”

Yes, yes, that’s a refusal.

At the resolute voice, I cleared my regrets.

“Right. If your grade is so low that you can’t enter the labyrinth, there’s nothing you can do about it.”

“… When did I say that?”

“Then you have enough skills.”

Realizing that Ragna, who was furious, was talking about, he made an absurd expression on his face.

“you… Maybe I’m curious about that?”

“… what are you talking about? Anyway, the story ends here. If you don’t like it, there’s nothing you can do.”

I turned the topic.

“So what was it? Shavin Emour, I heard you would have prepared something for me when she came here.”

“… I beg your pardon? Ready for you?”

She raised her eyebrows as if it was the first time she had ever heard it, but put her forehead on it as if she understood it too late.

“ha… Did you say that again?”

“Tell me so I can understand.”

“As I said in advance, please do not misunderstand.”

Ragna only confessed her heartfelt secrets until she heard my assurance that she would never misunderstand me.

“Shavin said that thanks to you, my position in the department has risen. So he asked me for his opinion, saying he wanted to reciprocate, and I… You said you like to read.”

“therefore?”

“That was all, and suddenly he mentioned what I owed and asked you to pay it back. So this isn’t what I’m giving you, it’s Shabin. Do you understand?”

“… … understood.”

To put it simply, you have prepared something for me.

I don’t know why he spends so much energy emphasizing that he’s not giving.

If it were me, I would have been sarcastic.

“Do you really understand correctly?”

“right. So what is the reward?”

“It’s a book.”

“… … book?”

As I tilted my head, Ragna closed her eyes and chanted a spell.

“Bierdo Parsitiv.”

When the spell is completed, a brilliant golden light shines through my body.

I think it was a little different from the usual Young Chang Eum.

“What is this?”

To my question, Ragna explained in detail, unlike usual.

It is said that there are high-security books in this library that do not respond to normal [Book Detection] magic.

“… I didn’t know it was hidden.”

“Originally, it was a privilege granted only to nobles or a few who were permitted.”

A secret library for the establishment of a kind.

It feels like I’ve received an unexpected gift, but I’m just so confused.

“Is it okay if you do that to me?”

“As long as you don’t go anywhere and talk, there shouldn’t be a problem. At first… I haven’t used this magic a few times since I took over as librarian.”

Ragna continued speaking in a slightly lonely voice.

“Who would be interested in this place?”

I mean, he’s curious about the story too.

***

Again, again.

An empty library with only the sound of shoes resounding in silence.

I am reading a book in it.

It was thanks to Ragna’s consideration.

[Then why did you come so late? Whoa, I see. Then, we will make it special only for today.]

When it was closing time, all users were kicked out, but Ragna allowed them to remain until the book was organized.

It felt a little strange.

Do I have to say that it feels like I’ve sneaked into an off-limits area?

Again, again.

I put down the book I was reading for a moment and glanced at Ragna.

‘I tried to organize it, but it’s all done by magic.’

Books that fall into an empty bookshelf every time you swipe the wand.

I suddenly wanted to know where it was and put it in… … .

Come to think of it, the books in this library didn’t need their place. If you use magic, it will find the book you want.

No, wait.

“Ragna.”

“Say it.”

“When we first met, didn’t I tell you to put all the books you’ve read in their original places?”

“I usually say that when I’m too lazy to explain in detail. Because it’s magic, there are a lot of people who ask uselessly.”

“… … Right.”

As a barbarian, it was a very hurtful word, but I read the books I had been re-reading without any fuss.

Is it because the book has a high security rating?

The content was definitely out of the question.

[Lafdonia Organization Chart]

Books dealing with public institutions in this city tell of a group that includes the secret police, i.e. demon hunters… … .

[World of Demons]

Some books even dealt with ‘Ghostbusters’ in depth.

By the way, in this book, the will of an agent who entered their own spiritual world and returned half-dead… … .

‘With a system like this, I wouldn’t be in any danger.’

Thanks to this, I was convinced that I could eat the pills in storage when the time came.

After that, it was time to focus on reading the book.

Just when I finished one book and was about to read the next one.

My hands stiffen as I read the title.

What is a crack gun report?

Isn’t this the name of the book Raven talked about earlier? I quickly opened the first page and checked the contents, and soon understood her attitude.

‘… … He deserves to be so obsessed.’

What kind of strategy should it be?

All the hidden pieces elements that I discovered through countless experiments and tricks are written down.

Although there were only four cracks in the description due to the physical limitations of the book… … .

‘It must be like a treasure to the people here.’

The contents are arranged so perfectly that even even me, I can’t see any parts to fill in the gaps.

Besides, is it well-maintained?

Contrary to Raven’s words that the book was written by an unknown person, the author’s name was also written on the last page.

“My name is Auril Gavis… … ?”

I read aloud involuntarily and became as hard as a stone statue.

‘Crazy, why is this bastard’s name popping up here all of a sudden?’

Auril Gavis.

It was the name of the game creator of [Dungeon and Stone].
