Surviving the Game as a Barbarian – 15



Episode 15: Return (2)

“Persy? Persie!”

The leader urgently called someone’s name.

Of course there was no answer.

The instructions I gave Erwen were to shoot and kill the crossbowman first.

“What on earth did you do?”

Only then did the leader ask me.

But at the same time I was watching behind me not at myself to see if I was expecting anything.

This was a very big mistake.

I hate people who ask questions with a set answer.

A lot of that too.

Smash!

The moment when the leader’s gaze briefly turned to the bushes.

Without hesitation I dashed forward and swung my shield.

Huh!

Unfortunately I couldn’t feel the taste.

If I were a goblin I would have become the light of the world and disappeared.

“Ilis! “Now!”

When the leader called his name the samurai dashed towards me and performed a horizontal cut in a stern manner.

Kakak!

There is a sound of sparks flying from the shield.

What is this shock? I almost lost my shield.

However despite being surprised I instead rushed towards the three.

This is to divert attention and give Erwen a clearer opportunity.

however….

Huh!

Another smash misses.

Is it because he’s a second-floor explorer?

As I was dealing with them for the first time the short reach of the shield was particularly annoying.

But the more I thought about it the more I shortened the distance and swung my shield aggressively.

Then I heard the sound I had been waiting for.

Whiiiiiiiit!

Erwen’s support fire has finally begun.

However the arrow fired did not hit the forehead neck leg or arm. This is because the bastard with a sword and shield blocked it with his shield.

“I will block the arrows! “Don’t worry about it just deal with the barbarian!”

For some reason I didn’t attack him alone.

Have you decided to focus solely on arrows?

After all humans are too picky compared to goblins.

bang!

The leader who had been blocking the samurai’s blow with his shield slyly swung his sword and aimed at my left arm.

Suddenly!

Fortunately I reacted in time so it wasn’t too bad.

There was a cut but it didn’t mean much because my arm was already damaged and it didn’t really hurt because it was paralyzing poison.

“Such a monster…”

The leader muttered as he saw me not even flinching even though my arm was cut.

Damn where is my excuse? It’s not cool.

Cursing under his breath he pushed aside his shield and used his force to throw the samurai away.

At that time support fire was fired once again.

Whiiiiiiiit!

The sniper’s location had recently changed so it was in a completely different direction than before but the distance wasn’t easy.

Percussion!

Muldae once again blocks the arrow with his shield.

What kind of outfielder is he? When Ji tries to target another kid he throws his body to block it.

The car was starting to get upset over the war situation that showed no signs of progress.

Grumble!

Like a hedgehog the shield with the arrow stuck in it begins to burn quickly.

“Fuck!”

Unable to bear the heat Muldae threw the shield with his own hand.

Sorry our archer is a spirit archer.

That’s why you should have used a full plate shield like me you bastard!

Hehehe!

When the annoying shield disappeared Erwen also fired an arrow again without hesitation.

“Aaaahhh!”

The spot that was hit was Muldae’s shoulder.

Soon he even lost the sword he was holding and turned into a useless bastard.

“Ilis! “I’ll take care of the fairy bitch!”

Only then did the leader understand the situation and ran to the bushes leaving me in the hands of the samurai.

It’s already too late to catch it.

Shit….

It seems I have no choice but to trust Erwen.

“Stop giving up Barbarian.”

The samurai steps back and speaks majestically.

After all this is why humans suck.

Where are you faking? It’s clear that their intention is to buy time until the leader comes.

Tadat!

As I dash forward and use Smash the samurai’s expression crumples.

“Why are you scared alone?”

“You are not alone!”

I asked a question to the samurai but he stood up and said the answer.

In his left hand he holds the one-handed sword that he missed earlier.

however….

Huh!

Is it because I’m right-handed? The cutting of the knife is really bad.

You handled a shield with such great skill why are you so mean?

puck!

I neatly dodged Muldae’s attack by taking a step back and hit Muldae’s Murpak with my foot.

The blood in his neck rose and he screamed.

“Aaaahhh!”

Oh I didn’t know it would break like that.

He fell to the floor holding the bone protruding from his shoulder with both hands.

I wanted to use this opportunity to finish off the battle but unfortunately it was canceled thanks to the samurai.

Kakak!

A heaviness that you can’t get used to no matter how many times you block it.

Why does he hang out with these idiots?

Is there any story?

I don’t know but that will be the biggest mistake of this bastard’s life.

Huh!

When I use the smash the samurai is accustomed to dodge it by widening the distance.

Immediately I threw away my shield and dashed once more extending my hand.

It’s called… Reaching out while pretending to smash.

I don’t even bother to give it a name anymore. It’s not even fun.

“Oops!”

The look on the samurai’s face as he was grabbed by the back of his neck was bewildering.

“I guess this was unexpected?”

I pulled the samurai with all my strength.

Then instead of using his motionless left arm he bit the samurai’s neck with his mouth—

Tdduk!

I ripped it off.

“Ah ah ah….”

The samurai couldn’t even scream.

With blank eyes he covered his throat with both hands blood pouring out like a fountain and took a step back…

I suddenly fell to the floor.

“mister!”

Did you handle that one on your own?

As soon as the battle was over Erwen emerged from the bushes panting.

“mister?”

I spit out the meat in my mouth onto the floor and wiped my mouth with my arm.

Damn it’s so corrupt.

***

The difficult battle is over.

Was I the only one who felt that way?

Fortunately Erwen seemed to be as fine as when they parted ways probably because the battle ended before they even got to close range.

In comparison I was a complete rag.

“mister! “Drink this quickly.”

Erwen poured the potion on me as I knelt on the floor her tension melting away.

Gulp gulp….

She carefully emptied the bottle of potion feeling like she was drinking poison.

Erwen explains that although poison is poison it is better to drink it because the wound is not concentrated in one place.

Anyway is it because I emptied the entire bottle?

It was completely different from her usual feelings.

“Keuuuuuuuu.”

Something is boiling inside my intestines.

I felt pain as if small chestnuts were bouncing and rolling through my blood vessels and my skin was itchy so hot that I felt like I was going crazy.

That continued for over 10 minutes.

“…Cheer up uncle.”

Erwen wiped my sweaty body one by one with the previous handkerchief.

Is it because of poison? Or just because I’m dirty?

I don’t know but the white handkerchief turned completely black.

…I guess I’ll have to buy a new one later.

“It’s done. “It’s okay now.”

Feeling a little better I stood up with difficulty.

When I look down at my body I see scabs forming over the big and small cuts and stab wounds.

If I messed up one more bottle of potion this would disappear but I decided not to.

“This must be a bad place….”

What if it leaves a scar? I’m a barbarian.

“water.”

“yes yes! “Here.”

At one word Erwen quickly searched through her bag and took out her canteen.

I feel like I have become a boss.

As I drank the entire bottle my energy gradually began to return.

Was the water this delicious?

Suddenly the veins that had stood out all over her body subsided.

“Please take out the watch.”

With Erwen’s help I checked the time.

And it hardened.

[23:20]

Damn you don’t even give me time to rest.

There are only 40 minutes left until the 7th day ends.

If I don’t get down to the first floor by then I’ll have to spend three more days in this damn place.

“Take off Erwen’s clothes.”

“yes yes?”

No not you them.

Not having the energy to say anything she pointed at the corpses with her hand and Erwen loosened his hand from her front collar.

“No leave your clothes alone. “I don’t have time so I’ll just take the equipment and the magic stone bag backpack.”

“yes yes!”

Erwen also moved quickly as if he knew there was no time.

“Oh I’ll bring that red-haired guy and the crossbow guy!”

Yes be careful not to step on the trap.

While Erwen was away I took off the samurai’s gear.

Throw away the chest protector the sword that the samurai used and the wooden shield that has turned into charcoal…

After sorting out the equipment I made a rough estimate and chose only the ones that seemed expensive and rooted them.

And just as I was stuffing everything into my backpack Erwen arrived.

“eww….”

Carrying two backpacks seems quite heavy.

But sorry I can’t listen to it because there are three.

Soon I checked the time one more time.

[23:35]

There are only 25 minutes left now.

“Let’s run.”

“Are you sure you don’t mind? “You look exhausted…”

“Never mind.”

Erwen looked concerned but when she saw my expression she nodded and opened the way.

And so the marathon began.

“I will follow you somehow so increase your speed as much as possible to clear the way.”

“yes.”

I sent Erwen to the front first and continued to run controlling my pace.

My body feels strangely heavy perhaps because of mental fatigue.

No is it just because of these backpacks?

…Still I can’t throw it away. After all that hard work there should be compensation. Wouldn’t that be a just world?

“Huu huu huu….”

How long has it been like that?

Suddenly a portal appeared in the distance.

Erwen arrived first and was waiting for me in front.

Her expression filled with both cheering and pity was like the heroine of a youth cartoon.

Damn it feels like I’m going to be left alone.

Feeling anxious for some reason I gathered all the strength I had from breastfeeding and accelerated my walking.

and….

“Go in first!”

“Oh me too!”

As it was reality not a cartoon I boldly omitted the emotional hug and entered the portal.

Flash-!

The brilliance that erupted was the same as usual.

But for some reason I felt like the light was embracing me.

***

The feeling I had upon returning to the first floor was not much different from when I entered the second floor.

Feeling like something is being thrown out of the stomach.

“Kyaaa!”

Unfortunately the results were the same as then.

Isn’t it worse?

thud-!

While I was almost thrown by her hair Erwen landed safely this time.

…How on earth is that possible?

When it was thrown to the second floor it floated into the sky and made a parabola. This time if you hit it in baseball it was almost like a straight ball.

Damn it my bones are aching.

“This is kind of fun!”

Yes I guess so.

I think it would be funny to have a guy like me next to me.

“after….”

Relieving my stiff body I stood up and shook off the dust.

And I checked the time.

[23:58]

It’s so damn safe.

I don’t want to say I was lucky.

Then there will be too many things to blame heaven for.

If things go well it’s because of me. If things don’t go well it’s my fault.

Thinking like that and living your life is beneficial to your mental health.

“Thank you for your hard work uncle.”

“Yes you had a hard time too.”

We looked at each other for a moment and said goodbye.

Wait a minute I feel like I forgot something…

“Distribute the spoils!”

“Oh right! integer!”

Erwen and I shouted at the same time as if we had an idea.

“integer?”

“yes! “You asked me to promise you something earlier!”

Oh yeah there was that too.

Now I remembered what I had forgotten.

But there is no time to talk at length.

I quickly checked my watch again.

[23:59]

I looked at the second hand and saw that there were about 15 seconds left.

I quickly closed the watch and raised her head to look at Erwen.

So… what was his name?

I think it was black or something…

“Black whale! “Let’s meet at the Black Whale Tavern!”

“yes!”

Erwen nodded her head at my urgent shout.

I think you can rest assured now—

“The labyrinth has been closed.”

“The character moves to Lapdonia.”

Oh my gosh I forgot to mention the time.
