Surviving the Game as a Barbarian chapter 233

233 Tuesday New Age (3)

A study with a faint smell of old books.

A nervous young man is posting a report in front of a middle-aged man wearing glasses.

“As a result of the final analysis, it is presumed that Belvev Ruingenes installed the magic circle and Lyranne Vivian activated it.”

“Does that mean they are both in the city?”

“Yes. It is presumed that Noark’s Guard Barrier is functioning properly, so it is most likely within Rafdonia as well.”

“I mean, one camouflage is an asshole.”

“They are fucking bastards. Then we will report the casualty statistics compiled this morning.

The young man also reported the total amount of damage in this incident with a sad voice.

However, the middle-aged man only listened without inspiration.

“Yeah, a lot of them died.”

70% of the explorers above the 4th floor died.

It is said that the only survivors were the 1,600 or so explorers who were discarded and the reactionaries who did not enter the labyrinth in the first place.

In fact, massive damage equivalent to a dimensional collapse.

“I’d rather be fine.”

The Prime Minister of Rafdonia, the Marquis of Tercerion, grinned as if it was flowing out of one ear.

At this, the young man tilted his head.

“Yes?”

“It is nothing. I have something to think about, then go see it.”

“… … Rest, Father.”

“In the palace, by position.”

“Yes, sir.”

Soon after, the man waved his hands, and the young man bowed politely and left the study.

‘I’m going to have to contact the horse tower soon.’

The man got up and went to the window.

Due to today’s event, users were busy moving everywhere.

🤩🤩🤩🤩

When the window was wide open, a strong wind blew in.

The sun was warm and the sky was clear without a single cloud.

“Your Majesty the King will like it.”

It was the perfect day to start a new era.

***

Zodiacal Carnon.

A special area where commoners cannot even enter without permission.

“Oh, is that the royal palace!!”

As you enter through the huge gate with the royal pattern on it, you will see a road that stretches all the way to the royal palace.

A lot of petals scattered on the floor.

On the roadside, you can see crowds of people gathered as if watching a parade.

Of course, there are few nobles.

Even if it is called the royal capital, which is called a noble city, after all, 90% of the population is made up of workers who go to work or stay here.

“Wow! It’s a parade of heroes!”

“Sprinkle the petals!”

I don’t know how much he was paid as a part-timer, but such users hung out along the roadside and warmly welcomed us.

how long has it passed

“Im here. Were there any inconveniences along the way?”

Soon the carriage stopped in front of the outer wall of the royal palace.

Not just the ones we rode, but hundreds of other wagons as well.

“Then get off.”

“Oh, wait! Take a breather, okay?”

Are you getting nervous now?

After all, it is said that this is the first time he has come to the Yellow Capital.

“… … Tell me when you’re ready.”

“Ugh, it seems to have happened.”

As I got out of the carriage, I saw familiar faces.

Survivors who crossed the death line together during the last tragedy.

However, since there was a distance from each other, whenever they met, they only greeted each other with their eyes.

“This is Perth, the guide for the heroes today. Come here. I will see you.”

We simply checked our identity in front of the castle gate and followed our guide into the palace.

The official name is the Palace of Glory.

A palace used for banquets or to receive guests for royal ceremonies.

“Rain, Bjorn… … .”

True to the name of the royal palace, Ainar stared at me as if he was stunned by the splendid interior.

Hell, he’s always like this in weird places.

“Straighten your shoulders. I’m here as a guest, isn’t it strange if you do that?”

“… Oh, I got it!”

“Come this way.”

Following the guide, we arrived at a private reception room measuring about 20 pyeong.

“It is an honor to have these heroes.”

As soon as I entered, the maids came to me and set my hair or arranged my untidy clothes for me.

In the meantime, our dedicated guide also gave us some simple etiquette and the order of the banquet today.

how long has it been like that

“Mr. Yandel!”

“Oh, you’re dressed up like that, can’t everyone recognize you?”

Raven and Abman, who had arrived 10 minutes early, came to our waiting room.

They, too, were dressed differently than usual.

Raven in a captain’s traditional dress dragged to the ground and Uncle Bear in a neat suit.

“Hey, isn’t it a little awkward?”

Uncle Bear scratched his cheek with a bewildered expression.

It is said that he came dressed up with the help of his wife, but here he wore a flag and changed clothes.

I wish there were some that fit the size, but… … .

“The tailcoats for the guests are all enchanted outfits.”

According to the guide, there seem to be thousands of magical clothes that can be worn regardless of body size.

‘Enchanting clothes.’

It’s a seemingly reasonable but absurd waste.

How often do guests without annual wedding dresses like us visit the royal palace.

“Then Raven, did you change your clothes here too?”

“No, am I wearing mine?”

“… … Right.”

Like a magician belonging to the upper class, she had at least one formal outfit like this.

“Wow, that’s pretty. How sweet is this?”

“uh… … . I do not know. Actually, it was a gift from Master before.”

“Ah really? Anyway, wearing those clothes makes me look like a fairy. Not that fairy, but an old fairy from a fairy tale book.”

“Are you talking about Fairy?”

“Ah, yes. That’s it.”

“Hmm, aren’t you kidding me for being short now?”

“No, it could be! Are you really pretty?”

Misha and Raven’s girl talk started at some point.

Me, Mister Bear and Ainar stepped back and had another conversation.

“Hey, Yandel. Have you heard of any more rewards? There’s a rank 4 Essence I’ve been wanting for a long time, but I was wondering if it’s possible.”

“Well, I haven’t heard of anything up to that point.”

“More than that, Bjorn, I’m hungry. When do you give me food?”

“If you can’t stand it, eat jerky.”

“Oh, have you brought anything?”

“Give me one. My mouth hurts.”

As we sat next to each other and chewed the beef jerky, the guide who had been away for a while came back.

“They say everything is ready to go in. Come on.”

The hallway outside the waiting room, crowded with people.

The guides lined them up in an orderly manner.

For reference, our location was the front center, with Melter Pend on the left and Uncle Kyle on the right.

“Oh, are you here?”

“You look good in clothes like that.”

“Come on, stand over here.”

… … oh, it’s embarrassing.

“Why am I in the middle?”

“Heh heh, isn’t it weird for someone else to stand up? Everyone gathered here saw only your back and followed you.”

Uh, um… … .

I have nothing to say when I say that, but this guy doesn’t tend to hit me too high.

So it was a car I was trying to say something.

“Looks like I’m going to start. Look ahead.”

Kyle looked straight ahead and said.

“Heroes enter!”

The door swung wide open with a loud shout.

Boo woo woo woo-!

A light performance that started with the sound of a loud trumpet.

“Come on.”

When Kyle urged him to step through the open door, many explorers followed.

thump, thump.

The space beyond the door was a hall with a rectangular structure.

It was spacious enough to accommodate thousands of people, and there was a red carpet all the way to the empty throne.

I continued walking along the carpet.

I was dying to walk without crutches, but I struggled for the pride of the barbarian.

thump, thump.

As they stepped forward, the knights drew their swords to pay their respects, and the priests blessed them with their holy power.

Oh, the nobles applauded from afar.

It’s too much of a treat for an explorer who has been a little over a year old.

I didn’t really feel good.

Maybe it’s the same for the other guys.

‘This is not a spectacle.”

Oh, is it a sight to behold?

fault.

As soon as they stopped walking, the explorers who followed them also stopped in a line.

It was different from the orderlyness of the soldiers.

Because I didn’t learn the formalities, the heat and heat don’t match properly, and the clothes are cluttered because of the heat in the middle.

But was that funny?

“Foot.”

A nobleman’s laughter was heard from afar.

And it spread more and more.

At the same time, there was the sound of something being crushed.

Awkward-

I turned my head slightly and looked behind me to see an explorer clenching his fists.

It was a warrior who dug a path in a cave with me.

Hell, when I broke the heads of monsters, I didn’t see anything like that.

‘I’m not as shy as I thought.’

Another aspect of the warriors I didn’t know back then.

Somehow, I didn’t like it.

That’s why, without me knowing, a shout broke out.

“Behel—raa!!”

A shout echoing in the vast space.

It wasn’t intentional, but the backshelter continued.

“Behel—raa!!”

It was a shout uttered by warriors who were addicted to our battle cry, including not many barbarians.

“These madmen even in the palace… … .”

Most of the explorers looked stunned or exhaled as if they were not praying.

The nobles, on the other hand, were a little different.

Did you think this was a promised performance?

The aristocrats, who seemed to be surprised for a moment, clapped and whistled.

‘They are really funny bastards too.’

It’s kind of funny, but the mood has improved.

Gorgeous royal palaces, countless gazes from nobles that are hard to see, awkward tailcoats, etc. The explorers, who were uncomfortable with this place, regained their leisure a little.

‘Cancer, this is what it’s like to be all brazen explorers. How did you come back alive from there?’

As he looked at him with satisfaction, Kyle smirked next to him.

“Didn’t you say If not for you, who will stand in front of this?”

Well, maybe that’s right.

If not a barbarian, who would do this?

“Hey, Jeongsuk! Please be quiet! Sir Ageni Rotten Tercerion, Prime Minister of Rafdonia, is here!”

In such a heated atmosphere, Jaesang appeared.

***

He looks like he’s in his early 50’s.

A good impression on clean hair.

The Prime Minister, who somehow reminds me of the headmaster, stood in front of an empty throne and began his speech.

Let’s start with a light joke.

“Haha, sorry. i guess i’m too late Please don’t be too angry with the heroes. It’s not a good day.”

Naturally, the speech that led to the discussion of the weather was connected to the next topic like flowing water again.

There wasn’t really anything grand about it.

He recites our hard work one by one, mourning, and explaining to the nobles the reason for calling us this time.

“They have done things that the knights of the royal family, let alone famous clans, could not. Without them, we probably still wouldn’t know what happened there.”

It was brought back to life with the information of Noark.

Nominally, this was our merit.

That’s right, can’t we just say openly that we’re giving carrots to suppress the backlash of the explorers?

“Therefore, I, Ageni Rotten Tercerion, on behalf of His Majesty the bedridden King, commend him for his work!”

After the long speech, the Prime Minister arranged the rewards according to the merits of the explorers.

First, give all the survivors 10 million stones and access to the Imperial Karnon, and there will be additional rewards depending on their performance?

By the way, we came first in the order of announcement… …

“Come out, Melter Pend, the leader of the Nartell clan.”

The first was a melter.

“You made a great contribution to winning the battle in the Goblin Forest by defeating the Blue Mane, a criminal from the Blue Rang tribe.”

The Minister mentions the achievements in detail whether the information collection has already been completed.

“I will open the Gintama Report to you. You can choose one essence and one object of your choice. Also, I will give you a bounty of 25 million stones.”

“thank you.”

Novel from https://noblemtl.com

Melter Pend obtained a ticket to the Treasure Vault, which contains a Grade 4 Essence and equipment of equal value.

‘… … Can I look forward to my turn?’

In fact, in terms of achievement among the three of us, Melter is the lowest. Considering everything I was able to kill the wolf in the first place, it was possible because I knocked down the corpse collector.

‘after… … .’

Unfortunately, next was Uncle Kyle.

“Iron mage, Sir Kyle Fevrosk, come forward.”

“See you after a long time, Jaesang.”

“Forgive me for coming to see you now because I’ve been busy with government affairs.”

There were three things Kyle said that the Prime Minister said.

Using their wisdom, the expedition suggested a way to survive.

Defeating Berzac with a scalpel teleport.

And time-consuming and damaging the Doommaster in the Battle of the Goblin Forest.

“You wanted permission to study long-forbidden magic, didn’t you? As of today, you are the proud royal mage of the Rafdonia royal family.”

“You won’t know how happy these words are to me. Thank you so much.”

Kyle was promoted to a royal mage.

It gave me the opportunity to learn and master all kinds of magic to my heart’s content.

“Come out, the warrior of the Barbarian clan, Bjorn son of Yandel.”

Finally it was my turn.

But is it because it’s a completely different case from Melter and Kyle, who were originally famous?

The prime minister stared at me as if tearing it apart, and recited my merits one by one.

“Your merit is like this.”

“With a noble will, we stopped internal strife and allowed more knights to return to their families.”

“Being an example by fighting bravely more than anyone on the most dangerous front lines.”

“It was to buy time from Berzac as a bait for the explorers to survive.”

“The decisive contribution to victory by driving Abed Necrapeto, the cursed soul of another world.”

When I say this, it seems like nothing really happened.

It was the car I was thinking about.

“I cannot express the hard work you have done to this extent. But nevertheless, on behalf of the royal family, I commend you for your work!”

“… … .”

“I will open the Golden Marriage Report to you. You can choose any Essence or Item you want, and you will be rewarded with a 50 million stone bounty. In addition!”

Jaesang continued to speak.

“I will grant you the title of baron.”

… … huh?
