Bjorn Yandel the Barbarian

The eye patch that gives off a mysterious atmosphere, and the tattoos all over the body.

It’s just that the body is young, but once you look at the outside, it looks like a plausible shaman.

It’s just…

“Stop it and sit down and take off your top. Little warrior.”

When I see him deliberately lowering his youthful voice and speaking his lines in an acting tone, I wake up. That eye color is actually fine, but isn’t it because he’s wearing an eyepatch?

Swoop.

I thought it was unreliable, but once I sat down and took off my clothes, the baby shaman suddenly put a hand on my shoulder.

And…

“You’ve already captured the spirit of the Undead in your body.”

The sorcerer, who at once figured out the route I had taken, lowered his hand to my chest and groped like a pervert.

“Then let’s see how far we’ve reached the extreme.”

A voice that seems to have the mindset of how much I would have done if I tried.

It didn’t take long for the voice to change.

Swoop.

The hand gesture that started from the shoulder descended to the chest, and then headed toward the side where the lats are located.

It is the place where I received the 3rd step of immortal imprinting.

The origin of the first engraving specialization.

“Hehe, you chose the spirit of the wild.”

I got [Wild Eruption] here.

If you’re a tank, you need to have skills to raise your threat level, right?

“You look young, but you’ve already accepted the spirit, so you’ve put a lot of effort—”

The shaman, who had been talking in an admirable tone, stiffened in shock. Before I knew it, my hand was going over the lat and over the back.

At this time, I seriously contemplated whether to slap him in the face.

Everything is fine, but if you do this, your face gets closer.

Her posture is like she’s holding me in front of me.

Swoop.

Soon, the shaman’s hand climbed up his back and reached the nape of his neck.

“Oh, it’s already been pierced to the yeongmaek? Quite a bit—”

4th level imprint that increased mental and spiritual power levels.

The hand ran down the back of my neck and back to the front plate, reaching the area where my heart was.

“…Even the qi veins were opened?”

Seeing that a panicked voice came out, it seems that he thought he would go back after hearing the Marquis’ explanation.

Something suddenly bothered me, so I forcibly removed the shaman’s hand.

“What are you doing! The noble ritual of reading your path now—”

No, so that’s a waste of time?

“Stop groping about spirit veins, energy veins, and so on. We’ve finished imprinting even the soul of the weapon.”

“If it’s Mugu’s soul… He even opened draft beer…?”

When he heard that he had completed the 6th level imprint, the shaman flinched once.

Did you just think that it was too insignificant?

“Ah, do you know? To engrave the next seal, a very precious offering is needed—” ”

Ah, if it’s the soul of the deceased, I’ve already brought it, so don’t worry.”

“…….”

I don’t know why a warrior and not a shaman had to lead the carving ceremony, but this should have given him all the information he needed to carve his mark.

“That’s enough of the conversation, so why don’t we start soon?”

Saying that, I laid down on the bed that seemed to have been prepared for me.

No matter how long I waited, the procedure did not start.

“What is a shaman doing?”

“…Wait a moment. Time to focus and catch your breath before starting the ritual—”

What is concentration?

Simply put, it just makes you nervous.

As soon as I sensed a sense of incongruity, I stood up.

And I let the doubts I had come out of my mouth.

I really hope that’s not the case.

“Shaman, you can’t believe……”

“…….”

“Have you never done a higher imprint?”

“……There were no warriors who wanted to receive it, but I learned all the ways to do it.”

As I write this, I suddenly feel anxious.

***

I felt as if I had become a young shaman’s textbook for learning experience, but I had no other choice.

It’s like asking him to call his grandfather’s shaman.

Rather, since he doesn’t recognize me, I think that it would be better to receive it from him.

Besides, isn’t his name a formal shaman?

Engraving will do just fine.

I thought so.

Until the first needle pricked my skin.

“Aagh!”

“……!”

“Quaaaaaagh!”

“……?”

“Are you tilting your head? Shit, you’re weird, didn’t you stab me?”

“…That’s not so!”

“No—”

“It’s going well, so stay put!”

hooked

“Quaaaaaaagh!”

Originally, did the imprint of the spirit hurt this much?

I thought I was going crazy when I did it before, but I don’t think it was to this extent.

Pooh-!

Time passes slowly, and the pain that has become clearer follows the time when the brain is pickled.

How long has it been since then?

“It’s all over…”

The moment when the sorcerer, clearly exhausted, finally uttered the long-awaited words.

「Step 7 of Immortal Imprint has been activated.」

An alien energy permeates the body that seemed to have no energy left.

It’s a slightly different feeling from eating essence and raising your stats.

Looking at this, it seems that the imprinting itself is done properly, but…….

「A special ability, ‘recovery power’, is created.」

Restorative power is a stat similar to muscle mass.

If muscle mass increases the total strength stat by 1% per 1, restoration power compensates all healing and regeneration effects in proportion to the value.

Well, it’s not like muscle strength, so it’s hard to feel right away, but…

[Physical value increases by +120.]

There must have been a significant stat increase in terms of numbers.

Because special abilities that cannot be obtained with integers are proportional to the number of main abilities.

Do you think my strength level will be around 120?

“Khehehehehehehe ……”

A great reward that was worth the time of hardship.

As I was splitting the threads, forgetting the pain, the shaman next to me let out a strange exclamation.

“…It’s the first time he laughs even after having his new soul engraved on his body.”

“That’s probably because you’re inexperienced. Warriors usually laugh when they’re having a hard time.”

“That’s not true…! How many warriors would I have—”

How much would I have done if I had been imprinted for 2 years and 6 months without me.

“Oh yes, good job.”

Gradually, energy was returning to his body, so he raised his body from lying down.

Even when the surroundings were full of candles, the curtains were closed, so I didn’t know it, but it became night before I knew it.

‘I said it might be late, so I won’t worry.’

Shaman, I will return to the Holy Land on my own, whether today or tomorrow morning.

In front of me, the servant who guided me earlier was waiting.

But why is your expression like that?

As if scared of something…

“I… are you okay?”

Ah, if you were in front of me, you would have heard all my screams. You wouldn’t even know the story of the engraving, so you’d wonder what he was doing inside.

“Okay, I’m about to go back now, can I just leave?”

A question filled with expectations, asking if you could prepare a wagon like when you came.

At this, the servant cautiously opened his mouth.

“The Marquis of Shuitz wants to see you.”

“The Marquis…?”

When I unknowingly left out the honorific and asked again, the servant looked sick as if he had done something wrong.

Couldn’t he just point it out in front of the customer?

“Yes, the ‘Marquis’ is waiting for you. Please go quickly.”

A servant who puts an accent on his title of honor and takes the lead in leading me somewhere.

I should be careful in front of others.

Because you can’t outing a barbarian yet.

Awesome profit.

The place they arrived soon was the study of the Marquis.

When I entered, the Marquis took his eyes off the papers, glanced at me, sent the servant back, and greeted me only after the door was completely closed.

“How did the engraving go well? Baron Yandel.”

“Thanks. But why did you call me again?”

I was tired, so I immediately got to the point, but the Marquis, as always, did not blame the rudeness.

just make it the way i want it.

“I have something to inform you right away.”

The Marquis gets to the point without even showing off his displeasure.

But does this man really know?

The more kind he shows, the more wary he is rather than trustworthy.

“It’s something to inform… what is it?”

“The first is that the persuasion of the people you wanted to recruit has ended.”

The Marquis then said that the wizard was able to recruit the person I designated, and the priest expressed his refusal, so the supernatural magician he had marked as Plan B joined.

If I had become a priestess, I would have had many options.

“Anyway, since you said it was the first, there must be a second?”

“That’s right. Actually, it’s in front of me. It’s enough to be delivered in writing later.”

“I’m curious, so tell me.”

“We decided to have a meeting with the heads of each team tomorrow.

“……Tomorrow so suddenly?”

“Isn’t the labyrinth opening soon? There’s been a lot of talk that even if you can’t go on a big operation right away, you have to finish organizing the system. Is there any problem?”

“No, no. Like you said, it’s better to end these things early. So how do you decide on a commander?”

“Didn’t I tell you. I’m going to do judo. All five teams will want to play the role of commander as all five teams have back boats.”

“Simply put, it’s an idea to collect them and make them decide among themselves.”

“I’m sure it’ll be sorted out. So will it be all right?”

“Don’t worry. I don’t want to roll under a stuffy guy either.”

A special unit on a dangerous mission?

I’d rather do it than watch some troll bastard sit in the expedition leader’s seat and do nonsense.

Well, if you have the right person, it wouldn’t be bad to just suck honey comfortably from behind.

“So where are we meeting tomorrow?”

“I’ve invited them to my family home. We’ll have lunch together tomorrow.”

It’s lunch tomorrow…….

It’s a place anyway, but it’s annoying to come back.

“Can I sleep here?”

“Of course. If you want, I’ll help you contact the mansion right away. She’ll be worried.”

“Ah, I’ll ask for that part.”

After that, after talking for about 30 more minutes, with the help of the Marquis, he contacted Erwen and Amelia at home through the District 7 Magic Tower branch.

After that, I went into the room where I stayed the last day, washed up, and got ready to sleep.

Fuuk-

A bed of an aristocratic family that was incomparably softer than our bed.

As I always do on the day I finished engraving, I fell asleep as soon as I lay down. .

Rumbling-!!

I bet the strange guy won’t come to visit me again in the middle of the night.

***

The next morning,

I had a face-to-face meeting for lunch, but I got up early because I had to prepare for the Marquis’s face, and I got up early to get dressed up with the help of the servants. ” It ‘s been a long time

since I’ve

worn something like this…

It’s not bad.”

“I look in the mirror and look pretty good to myself.

Is it because my physique has shrunk?

I don’t feel as pressured as before.

“Wait

a little longer.

” Didn’t I come?”

I was able to finish the preparations early as I stayed overnight at the mansion, but I continued to wait in my room.

I wondered if I could just wait at the banquet hall, but in an aristocratic house, aristocrats have dignity?

Even at the time of entry, It seems that there is a battle of nerves.

“Now let’s go. Everyone is waiting.”

Well, there is no reason not to follow the Marquis’ words, so I waited until the time was right and moved to the banquet hall with the

Marquis .

Servants who open up.

“Meet the Marquis of Tercerion.”

“I didn’t know that the Prime Minister would also attend the dinner.

” I truly consider it an honor.”

Soon after the Marquis arrived, all four men and women who had arrived earlier stood up and took a bow

. Considering your reputation, you may not be equipped enough, but please enjoy yourself comfortably.”

Saying so, the marquis went to the top table and sat down.

As I had previously heard, I sat in the seat immediately to the right of the marquis

. ..

“Bring the food.”

While the servants filled the table, the Marquis induced an introduction time as if he were a

blind date arranger. How about it?”

“Yes, can I start with that?’

The first to step out was the man sitting in front of me.

“Everyone is younger than me and doesn’t seem to have any nobles, so I’ll speak a little more comfortably.”

Caught neatly handed over to a well-dressed livery.

Embroidered check pattern on top.

So his name is…

“Call me Melend Kaislan.”

Ah, I remembered what the Marquis told me yesterday.

He was the youngest son of Count Kaislan and a veteran knight who entered the military early and earned many majors, right?

He said he was the youngest son, but he was over 40 years old and married at a young age, so he has several children.

“I’ve been in the military for decades, and thanks to that, I’ve won battles. But command must be a different area from combat. I’ve seen countless talented people lose their lives senselessly and fleetingly by incompetent superiors.”

The guy who got up to make a statement first and then started a lengthy self-PR session.

“I don’t mean to disrespect you guys, but if any of us have to stand in a position of responsibility, I don’t think there’s anyone better than me.”

Surely it’s because he’s an old man with a lot of years of experience?

I’m giving a military-style speech, and I can already feel how inflexible I am.

And it wasn’t just me.

“…Oops, wasn’t it a place where you could simply say aloud? This would make the person next to you feel burdened.”

The dwarf lady next to him laughed softly and turned him around to stand up.

“In that sense, I’ll do the next one.”

hey look natural

In fact, I knew who this woman was as soon as I saw her, even without giving her name.

Aren’t female dwarf explorers of that age common?

“This is Titana Aquraba.”

Titana Aqurava.

She seems to have no intention of revealing her age, but everyone knows her age is 61.

Of course, she has a much younger body than humans of that age due to the nature of her race, which is maintained at an early age.

What does age matter to her?

“…Aqurava? Are you really Aqlava?”

Soon after she announced her name, the noble knight flinched and widened his eyes.

After all, she was such a famous explorer.

Shouldn’t it be legendary?

“Even if it’s me, I’m not big enough to tell a lie in front of the Marquis, right?”

“It’s… I guess. It’s just that amazing. I heard you retired ten years ago.”

In fact, I first heard about this woman from the Marquis.

He was a member of the legendary team that explored the ninth floor, but he had never appeared in public after retiring with the sudden disbandment of the team 10 years ago.

In a word, my generation is completely different.

“Hoho, somehow, I came out of the world like this again. So can I continue talking? Young knight?”

“…of course.”

Soon after, she shut up the intervening article and had her own PR time, just like the previous article.

“I’m sure there is no one who knows more about the labyrinth than me. The same goes for the providence between explorers. Wouldn’t this be enough?”

A short speech that exudes confidence in yourself.

But as soon as she sat down, another man stood up.

“Haha I didn’t expect to meet one of the seniors I admired like this. This time I’ll do it.”

He was a man with an air of lightness.

The characteristic is that he is in his early 160s and belongs to the slightly short axis among humans.

“I’m James Carla, vice-captain of the Sergtooth Clan.”

The vice-captain of Jagged Tooth, one of the super-large clans that has been reduced from a teenage clan to a four-generation clan over the past few years.

This guy also followed the previous precedent and appealed for his strengths for a long time.

As you are working in a large clan, you are quick to get the latest information, and you are confident in presenting a direction that satisfies everyone by synthesizing all opinions?

At first glance, it was an appeal aimed at old dwarves and stubborn knights, but there was no particular inspiration.

I just recalled the information I had seen in the papers one more time.

‘He was an archer, right?’

If there’s anything to remember, that’s it.

Soon after the vice-captain’s introduction, the paladin next to him stood up.

“I am Jun of the Heindel Church. I don’t have a last name I used in the world because I abandoned it.”

A short introduction that contrasts with the previous ones.

“…is that the end?”

When the knight asked again, the paladin clicked his tongue with a slightly dissatisfied look and continued talking.

“There is nothing as unstable and dangerous as a man’s will. Everything will be according to God’s will.”

“Unexpectedly, the Three Gods side seems to have no greed for this mission.”

“…….”

The knight said something and tried to trumpet the intention of the Three Gods side, but the paladin just chewed the words without replying.

And…

“Now… that’s all that’s left.”

At some point, it was my turn and interest gathered.

Everyone pretended not to, but they were showing deep curiosity.

I’m sure you’re curious

First of all, it must have been the first time he had seen him since he was the representative of the Marquis, the second person in the kingdom.

As there is no information, it will be a little wary.

profit.

I pushed the chair back and stood up, briefly saying my name.

“It’s Lichen Schuitz.”

There were frowns everywhere.

‘Is that all?’

Eyes that look just like this.

Even the Marquis was the same.

In the past, everyone was actively promoting themselves, but I must be wondering why I’m alone.

‘I’m going to rush. It’s out of shape.’

Like the guys before me, I had no intention of saying word by word.

If so, it’s obvious that everyone will listen to it with one ear anyway, but why?

Swoop.

Soon, I slowly looked around and met each other’s eyes.

“A knight and a nobleman.”

It starts with a soldier from an aristocratic family.

“A famous explorer.”

Next is the dwarf lady.

“It’s a clan.”

The third is the vice-captain.

“It’s God, it’s Nabal, it’s something.”

Finally, after looking down at the paladin, he cut it off and said.

“I don’t listen to those who are weaker than me.”

In general, the shorter the PR, the stronger it is.
