Surviving the Game as a Barbarian – 310



Episode 310: Round Table (4)

The earth witch is alive.

There are several reasons for recycling this information.

And the first of these is that it is possible to screw Auril Garvis who was looking forward to what information I would bring up.

Just like this.

“her….”

An old man who can’t even speak and only makes groaning noises with a look of bewilderment in his eyes.

That sight naturally warms her heart.

Well I didn’t bring out this information just for this purpose.

This is the second time.

This information is quite useful.

The source is me. How surprised were you when you first heard this?

It felt like it was a bit exaggerated and lacking in seasoning.

Unlike these guys I didn’t show it on the outside.

To put it simply it means it’s perfect for pretending to be there.

Sigh.

I slowly looked at the reactions of other members.

The reaction was uniform.

When I first heard it I thought ‘What do you mean?’ He had a face like this but later he realized the meaning and focused his attention towards one place.

The center of the round table where the jewels are placed.

Towards the place where the truth is contained.

“It’s green.”

Soon the gem glowed green.

“Then that means that what you say is true….”

“At least that’s what the author believes.”

I chuckled as I watched the members exclaim in exclamation.

Yes this should be enough to prove your qualifications.

‘Anyway you didn’t tell them about this right?’

This is the third effect.

By asking this question you can find out how much information Auril Gavis has shared with these members.

If Auril Gavis had been sharing this kind of advanced information with them without hesitation the light would not have come on like this.

‘Well I had a rough guess seeing that you didn’t even tell me the name.’

Oh by the way there is also a fourth reason.

The point is that information is shared with members.

After all there was no mention of the Earth Witch being alive in the game.

I interpreted that the old man the game creator was intentionally trying to hide this fact.

Therefore…

‘It’s best to expose the hiding of cancer.’

Now I feel like I have poisoned this group.

I don’t know yet how lethal this poison is or whether it will just end in a slight tingling sensation but…

‘Seeing the expression on his face that made him chew shit I think it was a success.’

As a result the four deceased people who participated in the rally learned the secret that Auril Gavis had wanted to hide.

There will definitely be a chain reaction somehow after this.

In a form that Auril Garvis would not have wanted.

“Surely the witch of the land was still alive. I guess I will have to research that as well in the future.”

“The royal family must have known about this and hid it. “Maybe I could become their enemy.”

The child-looking Annihilator pondered my words with studious eyes and the leader of Orculis’ eyes shined like a warrior who had acquired a good sword.

and….

“If the witch is really alive… where is she now?”

The woman repeated the same question I had asked Auril Gavis.

Well this woman is also really smart.

“What’s your name?”

The woman in the fancy dress frowned at my question.

And she said quietly.

“…Ravi.”

Ravi.

A name that you can’t even tell if it’s a surname or a given name.

No I’m not even sure if it’s his real name or a pseudonym in the first place.

Well I tried to find out later.

“But why are you asking that?”

The reason is obvious.

He’s the only one here whose name I don’t know.

Of course she couldn’t answer that way.

“For asking a foolish question.”

“…?”

“Is there any reason why I should answer your question?”

It was funny that he used an honorific expression towards them while also criticizing the master so he just treated them as if they were subordinates.

But maybe that made you a little angry?

“….”

Ravi chewed her lip and glared at me.

As someone with only one year of experience as an investigator I thought it was the perfect time to give them a carrot.

“but.”

“…?”

“If you say something interesting I might give you the answer you want.”

Ravi pauses at my arrogant words and nods her head as if she understands.

Then she closed her eyes and opened them for a long time and looked at me.

“You want us to prove it too. great.”

There was a competitive spirit in her glaring eyes.

It was a somewhat expected reaction.

Well these are elites gathered by the Master so how high can they be? If you hear something like this from a mysterious man you met for the first time it’s natural to get angry.

“….”

Moreover other than that woman other members also looked slightly stimulated after hearing what I said.

Okay then I guess that’s enough for the rice cake….

‘huh?’

Suddenly I felt eyes on her so I turned her head and saw Auryl Gavis staring at me.

‘What on earth is this guy doing?’ With just these eyes.

***

The order of the meeting starts with me and goes clockwise.

Well to put it simply…

“I guess it’s my turn now?”

Second in line is the old man sitting to my left.

Therefore I also pricked up my ears.

In this place full of people I have to spit out information that half of them don’t know?

Definitely useful information—

“Then tell me.”

Soon Auril Gavis brought out information.

“The witch of Miss Ravi’s land is where everyone’s wishes go.”

Hey you clever old man.

It was information I was planning to use next turn.

‘Well I guess he said it first because he expected it.’

She most likely saw me using information and using a trick and decided that she had to solve this first so that she could check my real hand.

Soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow

Of course the light that comes on is green.

As is customary members each muttered their thoughts.

“This is where hope goes….”

“Does this mean a labyrinth?”

“There is room for interpretation but in some ways it could be referring to the outside of the castle walls.”

Hmm it’s not like there was anything I could pin point about as these guys.

“Okay we can talk about it later so let’s continue first.”

The conversation was resolved by Auril Gavis and the rally resumed.

The next person in line was a middle-aged man.

So the name is…

‘Cagureas.’

Yes that was the name.

Amelia also said it was her first time hearing that name.

Maybe it’s a pseudonym.

“Haha this is my first time doing something like this so I’m not sure what to say.”

“Take it easy. By now you probably have one. “It’s an important story that others don’t know about.”

“That’s right….”

Kagureas a middle-aged man with sturdy muscles looked at us as if he was wondering if he could say that here and then sighed.

“There is a Master so I can’t just talk about it and ignore it so I’ll just do it.”

“Try it.”

“There is a portal in the basement of the palace.”

What…?

Soon when the green light came on questions came out of everyone’s mouths except Auril Gavis.

“A portal? “Is it connected to the labyrinth?”

There was no reason to answer since the turn had already passed but Kagureas shrugged his shoulders and answered.

“I found it by chance so I’m not sure but I don’t think it’s a portal connected to the labyrinth.”

“This… is very interesting.”

“Then where on earth did the portal lead…?”

As he muttered in a tone like that of an old scholar of destruction the gazes of the four men and women naturally moved.

In the direction of me and Auril Gavis.

“….”

“….”

Everyone kept their mouths shut and didn’t say anything but the wind in their eyes was very clear.

You all know right?

The eyes of those who yearn for answers with countless questions they have encountered while living as investigators.

“…hehe.”

Auril Gavis just laughed.

And I…

“….”

He remained silent and did not move as if he had always been like that.

It is something I have learned over and over again through experience.

If you keep doing this you’ll be more than halfway there.

The name is Susajaryu (雄獅子流).

Rule 2: Stay still.

Oh of course while I was eating the second meal I worked hard to organize my thoughts.

‘It’s a secret related to the royal palace… He may be a member of the royal family’s faction.’

Cagureas.

What kind of person is this man?

Since he doesn’t know anything like the leader or destruction scholar he actually becomes more interested.

But wouldn’t it be nice to see the time of silence pass by so meaninglessly?

“If you do that now it’s my turn.”

The destruction scholar who was so lucky pulled out the information right away without any further delay.

“The principle of circulation in the labyrinth is vitality.”

As soon as he heard it a question mark was drawn in his mind.

But wasn’t it just me?

“…Lord Ruingenes could you speak a little more simply? “Unlike you we are ignorant of magic.”

“I’m glad it’s easy.”

The destruction scholar added further explanation to Cagureas’ request.

“Contrary to popular belief the labyrinth is not maintained by magic. “Resources are needed to keep the cycle going like it is now.”

To me it sounded like an alien language.

Did a woman named Ravi also have experience in magic?

“…It means that that resource is life force.”

She said as if she understood and the Doom Scholar nodded her head.

“But what does that mean? “I don’t think anyone here would be curious about the principles of the labyrinth.”

Kagureas spoke as if he was somehow displeased.

Actually I felt the same way.

After all he knows that and writes it somewhere—

“Tsk it’s annoying.”

The Doom Scholar clicked his tongue and Kagureas clamped his mouth shut.

It was like a muscular man staring at a kid but it wasn’t an unbelievable sight to see in person.

Even though that Annihilator looked like a kid he gave off an aura that was hard to mess with.

“Can I explain for you?”

“as you please.”

Ravi opened her mouth on behalf of the ruin scholar who seemed to be sulking somewhere.

“The raw material of the magic stone is vitality which means that the labyrinth is maintained through vitality. If I understand correctly… everything changes.”

“What does that mean?”

“Humanity was rebuilt and this city was not maintained because of the discovery of the Labyrinth.”

Ravi said.

“The labyrinth was able to be maintained because of this city.”

The back of my head felt tingly.

No wait a minute….

Is it true? Obviously if that’s what I said…

“…The explorers who died in the labyrinth were essentially fuel. “The royal family must have known about that fact.”

Perhaps because he was thinking the same thing as me the leader just happened to say out loud the conclusion I had drawn up in my head.

and….

“Well that’s what I understand.”

Lavi shrugged her shoulders and glanced at the Doom Scholar.

“First of all there is no doubt that the resource that maintains the cycle of the labyrinth is life force. “Doubts about the royal family are reasonable doubts that can be derived through this.”

“I guess so….”

“Okay then is that okay? “I think it might be worth the vague information that there is an unidentified portal under the royal family.”

Kagureas laughed with an embarrassed expression at the Annihilator’s sharp words.

“Haha don’t be angry. “People like me have no way of understanding unless everything is explained.”

…is this person a barbarian?

There is a sense of familiarity with him from his speaking style but it is difficult to determine his race.

That’s the type that leaks among explorers.

“Now is it Ravi’s turn?”

Auril Gavis’ words drew attention to the woman.

I was a little excited too.

Not only was the information from the previous two people very interesting but this woman took the brunt of my provocation earlier.

Even if she doesn’t push my nose she probably wants to prove that she’s just as pushy.

“It’s my turn.”

Soon she opened her mouth.

And she brought out information that was completely unexpected.

“The primordial dragon is dead. “You may not know but it was more than 10 years ago.”

It was absurd.

He spoke with such a solemn face that I thought he was spitting out some great information.

‘Just this?’

I almost snorted but a green light came out of the gem.

Of course Auril Gavis would have known so this meant that the other three people were hearing this story for the first time.

“…I see. “For some reason the Yongin people have been quiet recently.”

“I guess there was a story like that.”

“It’s a shame that the man who passed through the age of immortality died.”

The trio seemed convinced as if they had heard a secret story that was hard to hear.

At first it seemed strange but when I thought about it it made sense.

It was only after the new Primordial Dragon was elected that it became known that the dragon slayer Regal Vagos killed the Primordial Dragon and stole the clan’s treasured sword.

‘So it’s roughly around this time…?’

He didn’t study history so I don’t remember the exact year but I think he did.

‘I didn’t know that it was kept secret so thoroughly that even these people didn’t know.’

I licked my lips with regret.

But couldn’t you see me like that?

“Do you think this is an interesting story?”

“well.”

I don’t even know why they reacted that way to the fact that the Yongin tribe leader died in the first place.

I don’t understand why he’s acting like this.

Isn’t the preceding information much more valuable to anyone?

So I just spoke honestly.

“I don’t think it’s particularly valuable.”

“…That is incomprehensible.”

Ravi glared at me as if her pride had been hurt.

There was also a ray of doubt mixed in her eyes.

He must be wondering if I’m acting intentionally to ignore him.

‘No if you’re going to stretch out bring something more fun.’

For the sake of quality information it was necessary to kill the spirit at this point.

thus….

‘Is it time to bring out the third meal?’

She said tapping the chair senselessly.

“It’s not my turn but I’ll do it one more time in advance.”

“What does that mean—”

Ugh how dare the investigator say that.

If I did well I might be able to pass the turn for free so I spoke right away without any room for interference.

“The person who killed the Primordial Dragon is a dragon named Regal Vagos.”

“…uh?”

The woman who was about to say something stopped and was shocked.

And she took some time off.

Soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow

The green light on the gem came on.

“….”

“….”

A silence that is all too familiar to me.

In it I looked at Ravi and said.

As if giving a kind explanation to a bug crawling on the ground.

“How did you understand it?”

The name is Susajaryu (雄獅子流).

Rule 3: Contempt of the weak.
