Surviving the Game as a Barbarian chapter 192

192 episodes bifron (2)

Rafdonia.

At one time, it was only one estate, but after the end of the world, survivors from all over the continent gathered and became the only fortress in the world that was transformed into the last home of mankind.

The citadel was made up of 14 district cities.

First of all, Area 1 Ecliptic Karnon.

It is the residence of the royal family, as well as the aristocracy and the established elite. The biggest feature is that the commoners cannot even enter if they do not get the right to enter.

Zone 2-5 Commelby.

It is a commercial area often referred to as a free market.

It is located on the outskirts of the Yellow Capital, and all the shops with good sales and professionals who can be called artisans are concentrated here.

Area 7-13 Ravigion.

It occupies the largest area of the city and is home to as much as 70% of the city’s population.

A common feature is that there is a dimensional square where portals are opened every month in each area.

Finally, Area 14 Bifron.

The case is different in many ways from the 6th district gnome tree, which has been classified as a special district since the city was designed.

It originally belonged to ‘Ravigion’, but now it is designated as a no-traffic area, and now even the Dimensional Square has disappeared.

Drooling-!

The gates there open.

To put in one more prisoner.

“What are you doing? Don’t come in.”

“… … Is that the end?”

“Have you already heard the explanation? It doesn’t matter what you do, as long as you’re not trying to escape.”

The knight who brought me here turned his back on whether he wanted to be here any longer.

Koo!

Before long, the gates closed, and only then did I turn my back and check the surroundings.

“It’s a prison camp… … .”

As a place with such a nickname, the atmosphere was different from other ordinary urban districts.

If District 7, where I live, is left unattended for over a hundred years, will it just change to this feeling?

The old buildings were in a state of disrepair with no maintenance, and the exterior walls are full of dirt and graffiti.

Distance is also not much different.

Waste materials are piled up randomly.

‘Zep, do I have to spend 20 days here?’

I was just standing still in front of the castle gate, so I walked blindly.

I could feel the gaze of the borders everywhere.

It was the gaze from the residents of this district, who wore shabby clothes with their skinny bodies exposed with bare bones.

No, should I call him a prisoner?

eating.

There was some laughter.

What would it be like if it was Lee Han-soo, a modern 21st century man?

Obviously, the gaze alone would have shrunk.

It was because his eyes were full of greed beyond excluding strangers. He must have been in a hurry to find a place to hide without saying a word.

However… … .

“What are you twisting?”

I am now a barbarian of this era armed with heavy armor and a muscular body that is over 2 meters tall.

Even if dozens of people attack me like that, I am confident that I can turn them into watermelon porridge in a matter of minutes.

“Behel—la ah ah ah ah ah!!!”

With such confidence, I burst into [Feral Eruption], and the residents who were hiding and watching me started walking down the road with their eyes covered as if they had seen a ghost.

“Okay! I don’t eat it!!”

When I saw it, I smiled exaggeratedly and continued on my way.

“I, the author suddenly made a sound… … .”

“… … He’s the one who came all the way here, so he’s probably not a normal person.”

“He’s crazy. I’d rather not get too close.”

Those words were heard faintly from everywhere.

It was just the reaction I was hoping for.

It’s a specification that flies get tangled up and annoyed for nothing.

‘Well, that’s why I feel like I’m in the beginner’s field.’

It was a place called lawless zone, so I was very worried.

No, it was Misha to be exact.

But now I am convinced.

A lawless zone is a place where people who are strong are inherently weak, and in some cases it can be more comfortable than a society where laws exist.

‘I can think of it as just taking a good rest.’

Barbarian’s body, sensitive to Providence, had already noticed.

I don’t think there will be much inconvenience to me here.

*

It was time to walk around and look around.

“excuse me. New uncle!”

A boy about ten years old stood in front of me.

I immediately asked for confirmation.

“Did you follow me from the gate?”

“no? Did you just see it?”

“But how did you know I was a newbie?”

“I saw it for the first time today. As soon as someone like you arrives, rumors circulate.”

An answer that is understandable enough when you look at the people around you.

“Tell me your business.”

He said with his voice conscious of his surroundings.

However, perhaps the little boy is on the strong side, he didn’t avoid my gaze and said what he had to say again and again.

“On the first day, you still haven’t found a place to sleep, haven’t you? I’ll guide you. After all, I’m a native here born and raised.”

Simply put, it means that you will be a guide.

Of course, it won’t be free.

He wouldn’t have stood up in front of a giant barbarian with the courage to do only volunteer work.

“What is the pay?”

“Give me 100 stones.”

A small amount of money that makes you wonder if you missed one.

“good night. Please guide me.”

After coolly agreeing, the little boy took the lead, saying that he would take him to the best place in the area.

I followed the little boy and asked him this and that.

I read a few books about Bifron in the library, but it would be arrogant to know everything about this place.

First of all, out of personal curiosity.

“Are you born here?”

“yes.”

“What about your parents?”

“He is dead.”

“It’s not, were your parents born here like you?”

The little boy didn’t want to answer, but he had no choice but to kneel in front of the capital.

“Give me 100 more stones.”

“… … only mother I heard that your father was from outside.”

“For what crime?”

“… … Possession and distribution of inappropriate books. I’m sure I’ll ask again, so I’ll tell you in advance, but it was a book about whether the royal family’s taxes were justified.”

“He was a thinker.”

It wasn’t that surprising.

Bifron’s nickname ‘camp’ was derived from the expulsion of those who spread negative words to the royal family.

So many complaints?

Then, try living in a place out of your reach.

It was roughly the expulsion of this logic, but from the point of view of the royal family, it was a very clever move.

It can prove the legitimacy of the royal family more clearly than anything else while driving out the reactionaries.

That’s a lot more than hanging.

“How old are you?”

“I am eleven years old.”

“I can go out in three years.”

“If the credentials are successful.”

I tilted my head.

“Credentials? I heard you can go out when you turn 14?”

“You only heard half right. Relief is only available to very few people who have demonstrated talent in any field. I said in a certain field, but in fact, most of them aim at explorers. It’s a lot easier, and I draw a lot… … .”

“Are you also aiming for the explorer side?”

“no. I am a student.”

Scholar… … .

Somehow, he spoke so coherently, it seems that he did not let go of learning even in this environment.

“Are you an explorer? How did you come here?”

Soon the little boy asked me a question too.

It seems that he felt that it was not fair to answer only himself.

“I’ll tell you if you say you get 100 less stones.”

“It’s not that much money… … .”

“It is an explorer who does not lose even a small amount of money.”

“Oh, you mean explorers right?”

It’s too cute of a prank to be said that it happened.

However, the little boy quickly continued speaking, wondering if he thought that he could be harmed by me too late.

“like. I’ll take less. So please tell me why you are here.”

“I have made a minor mistake in the city. He said he only lived here for 20 days and then came.”

“Twenty days… … .”

Was it an infinitely short period of time for him who grew up here all his life?

The little boy was silent for a moment, biting his lips.

And I asked one more thing.

“What grade was your uncle?”

Personal information you don’t want to give much answer to.

“Isn’t that the question? 100 stones. So, answer any questions you may have in the future.”

Like a cowardly adult, he resolutely dismissed it and changed the topic.

Bifron’s prices, social structure, etc. These are the kinds of topics that cannot be experienced with books alone.

The little boy answered every question like a native without much difficulty, but there was one that was a little impressive.

the source of food.

“The royal family gives you food every month?”

“yes. Yes, the powerful guys take everything and use it like power.”

It’s a group of thugs that the kid is talking about.

Since we were born as human beings, there is no choice but to create up and down on the floor.

Another part caught my attention.

“The more you think about it, the more contradictory it is.”

“yes?”

“It is nothing.”

For some reason, I am a little more interested in Bifron.

Does it feel like there’s something more interesting hidden in one of the city areas that used to be fine in the game like this?

“Arrived.”

After talking a bit more and walking down the street, we arrived at the inn the kid was talking about.

The first floor is a pub and the second floor is a lodging, a type of shop that can be found anywhere in the city.

Do you think these stores are usually occupied by thugs?

‘They said it was the best place.’

With a grin, I opened the door of the inn, which seemed to be infested with insects, and went inside.

little profit.

Surprisingly, there were quite a few people inside.

Novel from https://noblemtl.com

Men and women of strong physique who wear shabby clothes and drink alcohol.

with daughter.

As the rusted paper shook with a blunt sound, everyone in the room turned their attention to me.

The emotions in his gaze were varied.

vigilant, perplexed, curious, greedy.

I ignored it for a moment and went to the counter.

“Master, how much is it for a night here?”

“Fifty stones.”

Again, the price seems to be missing one 0 this time.

“One meal?”

“250 stones.”

“250 stones… … .”

From my point of view, both are like a penny, but when I actually experienced it, I felt a difference with the outside world.

The cost of food is five times higher than the cost of housing.

The cost of living is unimaginable in Lafdonia, where housing is extremely difficult.

“Tie up today and go.”

“How about a meal?”

“Give it right away.”

“It’s prepaid.”

Within minutes, including the room price, I paid 300 stones and sat down.

“Then I’ll just go. mister.”

“You haven’t received any money yet?”

“Oh right!”

I gave a thousand stones to the little boy who had an awsome expression.

“I don’t have any money to give back… … .”

“It’s changed, so come and sit next to me.”

“yes?”

“Talk to me until the meal is served.”

The little boy, who looked at me with strange eyes, put his thoughts together for a moment and sat down. And he answered every question I asked.

So time has passed

“This is the food I ordered.”

The food you’ve been waiting for has arrived.

A diet with no meat at all and all soups such as bread and Heoyeon soup.

“Then I will… … .”

I caught the little boy who was about to get up.

“Sit down.”

“yes? Obviously until the food comes out… … .”

Hey, does the barbarian look like a real asshole?

I put my life on the line and said it again with high pressure.

“Sit down.”

Feeling the heavy air, the little boy sat down on the road with his mouth shut.

I pretended not to, but I could feel it trembling from afar.

I scooped out a large spoonful of soup.

and… … .

“Eat.”

“yes?”

“Eat.”

“Go, thank you, but I’m not hungry… … .”

Yeah, that’s how it turns out, right?

“If you eat it, I will give you 10,000 stones.”

I made an offer the kid could never refuse.

So, what will this guy do?

The answer was really simple.

“… … Please, save me.”

Like a kid who was born and raised in a harsh environment, he was quick-witted.

***

There were two reasons why I was able to see through the little boy’s masterpiece.

[Did you follow me from the gate?]

[no? Did you just see it?]

First, the kid calmly answered a lie to the question asked for confirmation.

Well, that’s a lie, I did it so well, but… … .

Because I’m a bit confident in my memory.

From the moment the gates first opened, he had been hanging out nearby.

[Only 100 stones, please]

Second, they asked for money too conscientiously.

This is very strange.

Isn’t it normal for people to be full of thoughts about eating and drinking even if they only go to tourist spots? But this kid, let alone the innkeeper, didn’t want to rip me off.

Of course, it could be just a coincidence, but… … .

“… … Please, save me.”

Instead of eating, the kid knelt down.

It wasn’t surprising because it was what I had expected.

For a day or two, there was a lack of novelty in the work of these people.

‘Hey, if you’re going to hit someone in the back, why don’t you hit it a little off-putting?’

I got up, overturning the table that I wouldn’t eat.

Originally, I was trying to find out who the accomplice was, but… … .

Because it seems like it doesn’t need to be.

“Stop moving.”

He said looking at the people who were slowly walking towards the entrance door.

A friendly conversational attempt.

Unfortunately, the four men and women, including the owner, were rather busy escaping by increasing their speed.

“damn!”

“Bounce!!”

Looking at her back, I bit my tongue bitterly.

no, would that be it?

“Aww!”

Once I picked up the kid with one hand.

Then he quickly came out and, naturally, like a series of processes, [Giantization] was turned on and then [Leaped] high by kicking the ground.

aa-!

A body that crosses several tens of meters in an instant and hits the ground. The bodies of men and women that had bounced off the effect of [Rebound] floated in the air.

“Behel—la ah ah ah ah!!”

After writing [Feral Eruption], the four people couldn’t even get up and run away.

Kwajik.

All four of them broke one leg to prevent them from running away.

One hundred broad daylight.

It happened in the middle of the street, but I know something. After all, this is a lawless area.

There are no guards who will run to you just because you used this ability in the first place.

“Aww, ahhh!!!”

Did you wake up then?

Among the four, the man with the impression of a mouse shouted like a macro.

“Wow, we are part of the Western Union!”

If it’s the Western Union, it’s one of the four thugs that devoured Bifron.

Is the boss cub an explorer?

So the grade… … .

“Hey, if you let us go, I won’t retaliate for this—”

What did you say.

Kwajik.

It was noisy, so I crushed the other foot.

Then, did it get any worse?

“Wow, our boss is from a level 6 explorer!!”

While screaming in pain, he shouted the whale whale.

I couldn’t help but tilt my head.

“Our boss? What does that mean?”

When asked like a question, this time the guy tilted his head.

He looked like he couldn’t understand what he was saying. I smiled kindly, bent over and stroked the man’s head.

“From now on, your boss is me.”

Still, at least once, I wanted a subordinate.
