Bjorn Yandel the Barbarian

Yeah, the other one lost the second round.

For some reason, he gave off the feeling that he had lost on purpose.

‘After all, one guy couldn’t do physical therapy.’

Anyway, there was no need to aim for the head, so as soon as the duel started, I smashed the sword with a double-edged axe.

But did he not want to lose to the savage?

“Oh, not yet!”

The opponent showed his will to continue the duel with his bare hands even after losing his sword. So I threw away my ax and ran and broke my spine.

“The winner is Bjorn Yandel of Baron Martoain!”

It was a bloodless victory, but the reaction of the crowd was not bad.

“Waaaaaa!!”

“Knight Crusher, Bjorn, the son of the little Vulcan Yandel!!”

Apparently, the sight of a person being folded in half was quite irritating to them as well.

The impression was not much different from the baron.

As soon as he returned to the barracks, the baron asked questions with wide eyes.

“Dude, do you know that? It gave me goosebumps! Where did you learn to throw a person in the air and then catch him on your knees?”

Well, if I have to answer, I saw it in a cartoon before.

I knew for the first time today that this was physically possible.

Nothing is truly impossible for a barbarian.

“I’m going to take a little break until the next match.”

“Huh? Oh, I see.”

After asking the baron for his understanding, I closed my eyes for a while.

It’s not that I’m sleepy…

‘Is there only one left?’

My heart started pounding as the high ground was right in front of me.

***

The long-awaited finals have begun.

“Sir Albatross of Count Ferdehild and Bjorn Yandel of Baron Martoan, please stand!”

The opponent was an apprentice knight under the command of Count Ferdehild, who was the host of the banquet and who had invited me to participate in the tournament…

I wonder if it was an afterthought.

The duel itself wasn’t much of a concern.

Yes, I finished understanding the opponent while watching the previous game.

“Nice to meet you.”

A gigantic knight holding a huge greatsword and bowing briefly.

Looking at him, I smiled.

‘I think I know what the Count’s personality is like.’

A knight is different from an explorer.

To them, essence is nothing more than a means to assist swordsmanship. Therefore, most of them tended to choose essences related to body values, but the combination of essences differed from family to family.

After systematic research, a few effective combinations have been solidified as standard, but…

because there is such a thing as a ‘concept’ in a character.

‘The Orc Warrior, Giant Golem and Cyclops…….’

The opponent is a typical strength knight.

Perhaps because he had the fuse in mind, he placed more weight on physical resistance than regeneration, and used a high level of muscle strength to match a full set of armor made of titanium, a second-level material.

It’s practically a walking tank.

‘I’ve been spending a lot of money on apprentice knights.’

While guessing the taste of the Count, he is once again surprised by his wealth.

Two 6’s in one 7’s.

I must have bought and fed the essence in a test tube, but how much did it cost?

‘If you add the equipment you’re wearing, you’ll be far beyond the level of an explorer on the third floor.’

Suddenly, I think that the Count may not have even considered my chances of winning.

To that extent, the level of this guy was unrivaled.

Most of the participants were level 2 and only had level 7 as an integer.

“Where did you leave your gear and be naked?”

Anyway, right before the duel started, while we were facing each other’s weapons, the other person asked a question.

Unlike the previous duel, I looked puzzled as I climbed up with only an axe.

I answered briefly.

“Because it’s uncomfortable.”

It’s not meant to be insulting, it’s the truth.

Heavy plate boots, excessively designed helmet belt, shoulder guards, etc. It’s hard to expect defensive power, but shouldn’t it interfere with movement?

“I guess so. But wearing something like that would be difficult to fight like usual.”

Fortunately, the other person listened without misinterpreting what I said.

But that was all.

“I was worried that it would end too easily, but I feel relieved because it seems like he’s taking it seriously.”

That relaxed expression and way of speaking must be an expression of confidence that no matter what I do, it will be me who wins.

I didn’t feel the need to continue talking.

“That’s good.”

If the other person is vigilant, it will be rather welcome.

Seruk.

Remove the weapon and open the distance.

This was the same for opponents.

When the distance between them was about 15m, the referee raised the flag up.

That means we can attack each other now.

“Come.”

The opponent takes a jockeying ceremony and snaps his sword.

Looking at it, it seems that the scenario he is hoping for is drawn in his head.

A barbarian who showed overwhelming force enough to earn the new title of ‘Knight Crusher’.

A true knight who gracefully and gracefully wins victory against such barbarians.

The cheers of the crowd and the recognition of the master.

A rosy future unfolds like a solid road.

food.

You can feel how easy this guy lived.

Whether my predictions were right or not.

If you want something, you should be more earnest.

You should always keep in mind not how well things can work out when they go well, but the opposite.

‘Still, seeing that he was so careless, it was good that he hid it until the end.’

Tournament organized by Count.

“Behel—laaaaaaaaaaaaa!!”

I used that combo for the first time.

***

「The character has cast [Giant].」

「The character’s physique grows, and the threat and body values increase in proportion to the size.」 「

The character uses [Wild Eruption].」

「The character temporarily ‘s threat level increases by 3 times, and the body level increases in proportion to the level.”

***

[Giantness] and [Beast Eruption].

When these two skills are used together, the threat level rises tremendously. And in proportion to that, the body value also increases dramatically.

There is a downside that the duration of [Wild Eruption] only lasts 30 seconds…

but what can I say?

At least in the meantime, I can feel the crazy mulberry taste.

‘I didn’t know that it would end so pointlessly.’

Is it a side effect of the excessive increase in the threat level?

The level of intimidation and the level of intimidation worked regardless of the subject’s personality.

“Uh uh uh…….”

An overwhelming sense of fear to the enemy.

bang! bang! bang! bang!

Even though it was making a sound like a large monster and dashing, the knight was dazed and couldn’t move.

Just the moment you try to lower the ax down.

“Hee hee hee!”

The knight, who evaded by rolling on the floor, began to run away in a hurry.

However, it is impossible to escape forever from this narrow stage.

As if playing a boxing game, I skillfully drove him into the corner and reached out to catch him.

That was the moment.

“Come on outside!”

The guy ran outside and the finals ended without a proper fight.

‘It’s nice that I’m comfortable, but…’

The crowd’s reaction was cold.

Fortunately, there was no criticism directed at me, but the knight who showed dishonorable behavior was really sharp and booed.

“Ah no, I don’t know… I can do it again… if I do it all over again!”

He came up to the arena as if he came to his senses belatedly, but it was no different than touching a dead son’s bum.

“How far are you going to disgrace me?”

While demanding a change from the referee, he hung his head at the Count’s cold words.

“The winner is Bjorn Yandel of Baron Martoain!”

Jeop, didn’t I really shouldn’t use [Giant]?

I thought of that too late.

As a result, I won easily, but it was only to the extent that I felt uncomfortable.

‘Somehow, I seem to have touched the count’s planting…’

In fact, it was bad news for me, who was worried about the future rather than winning the tournament.

I would never have thought that the act of hiding all my strength until the end to eliminate even the slightest variable would lead to such a variable.

‘Shit, I didn’t expect you to run away like that.’

After that, you won’t do harm with this, right?

I was worried inside, but the Count only smiled cheerfully as he went up on stage and presented the winning prizes, the necklace and the trophy.

“Haha! Today’s work really impressed me.”

The Count, who couldn’t reach my shoulder, patted my forearm to encourage me. I couldn’t tell if he really didn’t hold a grudge or if he was acting.

It was a time when I was watching for a long time.

The Count recited so that only I could hear it.

“I’ll call you separately when you’re ready.”

“…Calling?”

“You don’t need to know the details. Until then, if other nobles call you, just ignore them. Okay?”

I didn’t understand what he was talking about, but I nodded my head.

That’s because I have that kind of eye.

‘With bloody eyes…’

If he said no, he was ready to do something.

Anyway, the long banquet came to an end with the conferment ceremony. Well, there were a lot of people who wanted to stay and enjoy their seats until dawn…

but it wasn’t Baron Martoang.

“You’re tired. Let’s go back soon.”

I went back to the mansion with the same number of people as I did and got all my equipment back. And I was paid for the hard work that I promised.

“You’ve had a really hard day. I’m sure you and my family’s name will be the talk of the town for the next few months. So if you ever get into trouble, don’t hesitate to come to me.”

The baron seemed to like me quite a bit.

Even if it’s just empty words, if you see me saying that.

‘Well, I’ve done this much, but it’s worth being happy.’

“Then let’s go. I’m tired too. I told you to prepare a wagon, so you can ride it.” “Thank you

! ”

It was past 2:00 am when I left Karnon, the ecliptic, and returned to my lodgings in Ravigion.

Even though I was tired…

‘Then let’s start.’

I sat down at the table, not on the bed,

and started the final settlement.

1 million stone as a labor fee as promised at the beginning.

2 million stone as a tournament participation fee.

1 million stone as an additional bonus when winning. 300,000 stone

as a reward for handing over the winning trophy to the baron. ‘

A total of 4.3 million stones in cash.’

Is it because a wealthy noble is a client?

I got a huge amount of money that is hard to believe as a daily wage.

Even this is not the end. It’s

a new nickname called knight crusher anyway.

“I didn’t expect to get this in the beginning… ..’

No.7777 Garphas’ necklace. In fact,

if you’re unlucky, you’ve got something you couldn’t get even if you

worked hard in Amman in the second half.

Luck is undeniable,

so I vowed again,

‘How many stacks of luck have you already accumulated?’

From now on, I really have to be careful about breathing.

***

The morning after the banquet,

one question is solved.

At least half of it.

‘What kind of letter is…….’

As soon as I woke up, the mail started arriving nonstop. .All of them were sent from nobles.

A letter asking if you could participate in a banquet.

For reference, the letter also contained a promise to pay ‘a certain amount of compensation’ when participating. It’s a

given, but I thought I could live for the rest of my life just by doing this in the future. It was about …

‘This is what the count said.’

“I’ll call you when I’m ready” is still meaningless, but I’m sure he meant to ignore the call of the nobles

.

Therefore, I wrote back the words of refusal.

That’s because if I chew silently, proud nobles might retaliate.

If I participate, I think I’ll get the count’s wrath.

‘What the hell is the count thinking?’

To be honest, I’m afraid of him the most.

He’s always treated me with a favorable attitude, but if these guys get sloppy once, their eyes will turn upside down. I didn’t

mind that his intentions were unclear in the first place.

A person like a count was only interested in a barbarian-born explorer. What’s the point of holding

‘The next time the community opens, let’s investigate the count.’

With the new quest engraved in my head, I hurriedly got ready to go out and headed to the

Mage’s

Tower .

The three-month promise with Raven is coming to an end.

Well, the purpose of today’s visit has nothing to do with it.

“How are you?”

When we arrived at Raven’s private laboratory, for some reason, she greeted us in a normal state from the morning wind.

“So today I Where is the senior who should help with the research?”

” That’s…”

Raven

blurted

out

A white-haired old man jumps out from behind.

The master of the Artemion school. Commonly

as the ‘ old man .

I guess.”

“I’m sorry. Master insisted so much…”

Yes, he was forced to change it.

As I glanced at him, the old man kindly laughed.

“Don’t be so nervous. It’s not such a grand experiment.

” You have to see it to know it. When I sent my gaze to explain

,
the old man

opened his mouth with a meaningful tone
