Bjorn Yandel the Barbarian

Episode 600 Third Record (3)

What should I say about the current situation?

First of all, it is definitely not a status abnormality such as ‘fear’ or ‘frenzy’.

But it is by no means in perfect condition.

Exciting-!

Something feels uncomfortable in my chest.

“What what! “I don’t think I’ll at least hit you with that.”

“Hey, shut up. “Just think for a moment.”

A feeling as if the filter of consciousness had disappeared.

Impulsive thoughts keep coming out of my mouth before I can control them.

“Sorry. Erwen. “I didn’t mean to scare you.”

“Oh no! “I’m not scared!”

“…not eating.”

I guess I have to apologize just now, right? I only thought about that for a moment, but my mouth immediately opened.

So what is the cause of this phenomenon?

‘It’s definitely a field effect.’

The details of the effect are unknown.

However, it is highly likely that it is a mental type depuff….

“Does it get stronger as time passes?”

Well, I guess so.

Because I was fine when I first came here.

As time passed after our conversation at the starting point, my mental state became more and more strange.

And…

“This old man was similar.”

“…Ha grandpa?”

“Oh sorry. “I only think about it internally.”

“What on earth are you thinking? “Why did you suddenly hit your head with your hammer and what did you just say?”

Oh, it’s so annoying, it keeps buzzing.

“I’ll tell you, so be quiet.”

I felt like I wanted to just hit it with a hammer and start over, but I was patient enough to resist it.

“Something is wrong with my head. “I keep having strong urges and it gets worse as time goes by.”

“What do you mean by impulse?”

“It changes every time.”

“You can at least give an example—.”

“Right now I feel like bashing your head in.”

When I answered briefly, Gahyun got scared and took a step back.

And then he looked like he realized something.

“Then that’s why he hit his head with a hammer earlier… !”

“right. “I wonder if things will get better then.”

Actually, that method worked quite well.

Because I came to my senses and was able to reflect on myself.

And in that sense….

“But for some reason, it seems like you’re having the same problem with your head? ”

“…Me?”

Gahyun seemed oblivious, like an innocent person, but in my opinion, she was almost 100% innocent. It

‘s true that Gahyun was a bit of an eccentric old man, but he wasn’t the kind of person who would cross the line like this Even when there was friction in the past, didn’t you think rationally and then apologize?

“Erwen, you seem to be fine… You tell me. In your eyes, is that old man normal now?”

“…no. Weird.”

“I heard that’s true?”

“…It certainly seems like something has changed emotionally.”

Soon, Erwen joined in, and even Gahyun pretended not to win and admitted.

“It’s not enough to call it a problem. “It’s not like I have the urge to hit someone like the Baron did!”

Well, I’m glad if that’s the case.

If you get angry and raise your voice like that, I can’t trust you even if I try.

“Anyway, it’s clear that we’re in trouble. Count Archbishop. Are you Are you guys okay?”

Afterwards, they checked the condition of the two, and although it was difficult to say that they were normal, they responded that it was not at a level that could be seen on the outside. “Hmm, then is it just a difference in mental strength?”

The village chief is a monster who has lived for thousands of years, and the archbishop is a devout religious person, so it wouldn’t be surprising if he had a stronger mentality than me. But… ‘

The strength of the debuff may be slightly different for each role.’

The basis for the hypothesis is Erwen.

Erwen, who played the role of ‘witch’, was the only one among us who did not receive a debuff.

“…I guess we should move quickly.”

In response to my muttering to myself, Gahyun once again tried to tell me something else.

“Are you in a hurry? “Do you really mean to leave this matter alone and just continue our journey?”

“okay.”

There is no other way in the first place.

You won’t get better by sitting still, so it’s best to proceed as quickly as possible.

“This is truly unbelievable! “What are you going to do if someone loses? “their temper and attack you from behind?”

“Don’t worry. “It’s not like there’s no solution at all.”

Please note that there was no need for verification.

“Why are you suddenly… hammering during a conversation…?”

Oh, that?

“When I saw your voice getting louder, it seemed like you had lost your temper.”

“….”

“Oh, seeing as you’ve become quiet, I guess your senses have returned.”

“….”

You can control the person who ruins it.

***

One day, two days, three days, four days….

We continued down the road along the canyon.

Unlike the Great Demon World on the 5th floor, monsters of at least level 4 or higher appeared here, but the battle itself was not very difficult, my blow was fatal even to high-level monsters.

Suddenly!

Needless to say, the village chief’s fighting power that brought out dazzling auras was great.

In addition, Gahyun’s ancient magic and even Erwen helped in the battle by beguiling the monsters and turning them into minions, so the battle itself was so easy that it became frustrating.

Yes, the battle is.

“Control is decreasing.”

There was no conversation on the journey along the canyon path toward the bottomless pit.

This was a rule that took effect yesterday.

All chatting except for strategy-related conversations is prohibited.

“….”

“….”

Isn’ t there a saying that it is a seed?

In other words, it means that if you don’t say anything, there will be no trouble…

“…How long are you going to do this ridiculous thing?”

As with everything in the world, reactionary elements who were dissatisfied with the rules existed here too.

Well, it wasn’t a big issue to worry about.

“baron! “In my opinion, this doesn’t help at all—.”

“Use it.”

The wizard frowns and immediately comes to his senses as soon as he lifts the hammer.

“I’m sorry. I’m so sorry for getting excited again for a moment because of this damn curse. “This will never happen again…” ”

“This is the only time it’s going to be a warning.”

“…I understand. “Be careful.”

Is it because I really got punched yesterday?

The speed at which the gun starts spinning in your eyes is fast.

But still, aggressive words came out of my mouth first.

“It’s not about being careful, it’s about doing well. All you have to do is just shut up. “Is it really that difficult?”

“Um… uncle… ?”

“…I’m a little excited too. “I will keep my mouth shut from now on.”

Huh… This is why chatting is prohibited.

In an impulsive and sensitive situation like now, it’s best to just not have any stimulation.

‘It’s going to spin, really.’

I feel like I’m going crazy because it’s so hard.

I wonder if aggression is expressed even if the concentration is lost even for a moment.

It makes me wonder how the village chief and the archbishop can stay so fine.

To be honest, even though the village chief said so, the archbishop didn’t seem like a very mentally great person.

“Mister! It’s that flower over there!”

“It was my turn this time, right?”

The moment Erwen pointed to a place, I rushed over in a huff, plucked a flower blooming at the edge of the cliff, and stuffed it into my mouth. The reason is simple.

“It slightly increases control.”

This flower relieves symptoms of insanity when consumed.

For your information, the discoverer was me.

Wherever I went, I saw something suspicious, so I fed it to Gahyun.

“…You’re having a hard time, aren’t you ?”

“…I am grateful, but if possible, do not talk to me. “It doesn’t sound good at all in its current state.”

“Ah… I’m sorry.”

Come to think of it, Erwen is also quite amazing.

Before I erased my essence, every moment would have been similar to who I am now.

“uh? “Everyone, stop for a moment!”

At that time, Gahyun shouted loudly and stopped us.

“Below! “Can’t you hear something down there?”

“I wonder if I’m even hearing hallucinations now…”

I sighed and lifted the hammer slightly, but the village chief stopped me.

“Put down the Baron’s hammer for a moment. “What Sir Vesillus said is true.”

What did you really hear?

I glanced at Erwen for confirmation, but Erwen just shook her head.

It looks like he couldn’t hear anything because his stats were lowered…

“Try to concentrate. Then the Baron will be able to hear it too.”

As I closed my eyes and focused on the sound as the village chief spoke, I faintly could hear the sound through the wind passing by my ears.

[Come here…]

Something was calling me like a whisper.

“Something has finally come out.”

It may be a scary situation for some people, but it felt very welcome to me right now.

After all, how many days have you been suffering?

Please, I want to clear this chapter and leave here as soon as possible.

“What are you going to do?”

“Of course I have to check what’s there.”

This time, Gahyun did not object to what I said.

Well, I guess that old man also wants this situation to end quickly.

“Follow me carefully.”

Afterwards, as the speed increases, the noise coming from below gradually becomes more distinct.

[That’s right….]

[Come here….]

[You have a very pretty soul.]

I don’t like the fact that I have to move on as if I’m possessed while hearing such explicit lines, but I can’t help it.

Whether it’s a mid-boss or a real boss, once you catch it, nothing will happen…

“By the way, the Baron…”

Then someone spoke to me.

“Have you ever thought of serving something else than the spirit of your ancestors?”

Surprisingly, it was the Archbishop who spoke, not Gahyun.

For some reason, I couldn’t help but laugh.

“Hehe…”

I thought he was holding on well so far, but is this old man also slowly reaching his limit?

“You know that trying to proselytize barbarians is a very rude thing to do, right?”

“….”

“But since the situation is the same, there is no need to make excuses. “I wasn’t that angry.”

Since he was a model grandpa who had never been in trouble, I just tried to play it cool.

However, despite my efforts, the archbishop just looked at me with an unpleasant smile on his lips.

Is that why?

“…?”

It was late to notice the change.

‘The voice…’

No words come out.

Should I call it a feeling of being blocked in the middle, like something is blocking the inside of my jaw?

As I quickly checked my surroundings, I quickly realized that the problem was not just me.

“….”

“….”

Even though the surroundings are quiet, it is so quiet.

It’s not just because of the rule against small talk.

The sound of breathing and footsteps.

You can’t even hear the sound of the wind blowing from below throughout the journey.

[This way…]

Complete silence where nothing can be heard except an unidentified voice.

It was the moment when I accurately recognized this.

Cooung—! Cooung—! Cooung—!

I feel a vibration in my toes along with a short chant.

The vibrations coming from the bottom of the cliff were getting louder.

“…!”

“…!”

When I looked around, everyone was just standing there with their mouths gaping.

It seems like they are saying something, but it is difficult to understand.

First, I approached the edge of the cliff and looked down.

Kuung-!

In the endless darkness.

There is nothing to see yet.

But…

coo!

Before long, ‘it’ emerged from the darkness.

It was climbing up the cliff, looking up at me with creepy eyes.

‘Uh…’

As soon as my eyes met it, my body became as hard as stone.

I didn’t understand at all.

Kuung-!

Definitely before entering here.

Kuung-!

The wizards who inspected the portal in detail would have said that there must be a crack beyond the portal…

「The character has entered the range of [Unspoken Spirit].」

「All essence skills are sealed.」

「[Giantization] It ends.」

Why does a hierarchical monarch appear here?
