Surviving the Game as a Barbarian – 344



Episode 344 Comeback (3)

[The investigator has no record of accessing Ghostbusters for 2 years and 6 months.]

He was quite embarrassed when he first heard that but when he thought about it he saw no reason to be too afraid.

At least this one thing was certain.

‘At most I would have been caught using the nickname ‘Elfnunna’.’

That’s because even Auril Gavis was unable to dig up the details of reality in the spiritual world.

But GM who took over half of it can do it?

This is ridiculous.

Instead the problem is that if the community knows the nickname they can beat Ben up…

This is not a big problem if you think about it differently.

‘It’s not like he has a disease that will kill him if he doesn’t participate in community activities.’

On the other hand if I take a low stance I have a lot to lose.

At that moment that woman will decide that this is my weakness.

[Where on earth have you been disappearing all this time?]

From now on more explicit questions will be directed at me. If you just avoid this question it will only be a matter of time before the investigator’s mask comes off.

So that’s right.

‘The best defense is offense.’

Believing in that belief I decided to flip a coin.

After all wasn’t the GM who had a record of slashing Lee Baek-ho and almost getting scolded for a goal?

There is a saying that nuclear weapons are a deterrent to war.

Rather it was decided that boldly inflating the body even more might be the only solution.

Well I’m not sure what the result will be yet…

‘You’ll find out soon enough.’

Soon I looked around.

“….”

“….”

A quiet silence where even the sound of breathing stops.

In it everyone’s eyes were focused on one place.

The place where the jewel that determines truth and lies is placed on the round table.

However I looked elsewhere than at jewelry.

Soul Queens.

The GM’s colleague participated in the round table wearing the queen mask.

Her eyes which had always been relaxed were agitated.

‘Why on earth did this happen?’ Filled with such questions. As if he never expected things to turn out like this.

“…Uh uh huh.”

Her mouth wanted to say something but she couldn’t put anything together and just let out a broken sound.

The situation was similar with her hands instead of her mouth.

“Uh huh…?”

The outstretched hand stayed in the air for a moment as if it needed to be blocked and then fell down helplessly.

I know this too.

That nothing can stop it with a gesture like this.

The water has already been spilled.

Ssaaaaaa-!

The jewel glowed green for a short period of time as if enjoying the attention.

And the short silence came to an end.

“GM… this magic engineer…?”

“Now wait a minute… my brain can’t keep up. How can that person be an evil spirit… or even a GM?”

“…Fishit it was worth waiting for Mr. Susa for over two years. “It was such a secret from the beginning.”

The chaotic atmosphere continued as members each spoke out.

There was something worth listening to in the murmur.

“More than that I’m surprised by the Queen. There has been speculation that it might be from the management but…”

Yes somehow I felt like talking about access records in front of everyone.

There was no reason to hide it all at once.

It seemed that the Queen’s identity had also been revealed to some extent during my absence. Hmm considering this woman’s personality does it mean that it wasn’t revealed but was revealed on purpose?

Of course that’s not what’s important right now.

No matter what people around me said I still only stared at one place.

“I can handle it….”

The Soul Queens who were standing with their hands on the table and their heads bowed were glaring at me.

However it didn’t feel particularly harsh.

The reason is very simple.

“Can you handle it…?”

I had to stutter like that.

Who would be scared after hearing that?

“I don’t know how you found out but after doing something like this—”

I said interrupting her.

“I heard there’s no reason to be afraid.”

“…?”

“You’re shaking.”

“…!”

The Soul Queen quickly turned her head and looked at her hands.

My hands were shaking violently like a person suffering from tremor.

Ok.

Soon she grabbed her trembling wrist with her other hand and glared at me again. And then she took a deep breath as if she had made up her mind.

“Yes that’s how it will come out. “I’ll do it first this time.”

She placed her hand on her jewels which were placed on her seat and she said that anyone who will not participate in this round should leave.

Naturally there were no members left in this situation.

and….

“The investigator is Bjorn Yandel.”

Before long the jewels began to shine.

***

1. The Chinese name is Elfnunna.

2. Elfnunna has not logged into the community for 2 years and 6 months and the same goes for the investigator.

3. Therefore the investigator is Bjorn Yandel.

She must have been 100% certain of this fact as it was a conclusion she arrived at through due process.

At least until I enter this round table today.

Ssaaaaaa-

The jewels brought out light in an atmosphere that was not only tense but also sharp enough to cut one’s skin if one were not careful.

“…It’s red.”

As expected the green light did not come on.

Because this gem is not an item that determines ‘facts’.

It seems like the Soul Queens wanted to give me a punch… but since there is a gap in my trust this is nothing more than a meaningless struggle.

‘But the problem is that this woman doesn’t seem to have lost her mind so much that she doesn’t even know this simple thing.’

Then what was the reason for the pointless struggle?

The answer was found through the goblin’s question.

“Hey Bjorn Yandel is dead isn’t he? Mr. Susa is alive and in front of me… But why are you asking such a question…”

“There are many questions about his death. “Not even his colleagues saw him die in person.”

The possibility that Bjorn Yandel is alive.

This woman had that in mind when she said these words.

Well she lacked faith so she got a red light.

“Fishit but with that guess you would have known that the red light would come on right?”

“…I won’t answer that part.”

The Soul Queens said that and took their gaze away from me.

It occurred to me only then that maybe what I just said was just speculation.

No it definitely would have been like that.

Looking back I realized that this woman was only looking at me even at the moment her jewel light came on.

‘… Ha in that situation she tried to turn it around. Is there really no way to get over this easily?’

Although I was worried about what kind of judgment this woman would make upon seeing my reaction I did not show it.

But did she become more confident when I was quiet?

“…Anyway the red light came on so I have to do it again.”

The Soul Queens glanced at me casually saying that they would retry.

and….

“I can always prevent the investigator from setting foot on the Ghostbusters.”

She got the green light by spitting out information confirming that she was from the management team.

The behavior was roughly within the expected range.

I said I could handle it but at best that’s the only penalty I can give.

Unlike me.

“I wish you wouldn’t do something like that. “Oh I can’t do it anyway.”

“…What do you mean?”

“Why would they leave me alone if I was deported in the first place? I’m from Noark which you all hate so much. “Didn’t you just leave it here because you were curious about this information?”

“…What does that have to do with that?”

“I guess Fish Sit is the right answer? In any case for that reason it means that Mr. Susa should not be expelled. “I don’t know what this person will say next and…”

The clown said clearly.

“You shouldn’t do anything you can’t handle right?”

“…something you can’t handle?”

“yes. “He knew GM’s identity so why should he suffer?”

It was a word that scratched my itch.

Well if you say these words yourself doesn’t it seem like something is missing?

If you step up like this you can save face.

It’s similar to the fact that there’s always a stooge like this next to the Iljin.

“….”

As I turned my gaze away from the queen who couldn’t refute anything and kept her mouth shut I made eye contact with the clown.

The guy was smiling.

‘Did you do well?’

With just these eyes.

***

Would I have thought that this was roughly enough to repay the sorrow of the past?

“Pisit. “What I’m saying is it’s not something I can mess around with.”

After finishing everything he had to say the clown continued speaking in a refreshing voice.

“Anyway if we go back in reverse order will it be my turn this time?”

The second lap resumed in earnest.

From the beginning there was a story that couldn’t be skipped over.

“It just so happens that we’re talking about Bjorn Yandel that guy who will kill you… He may not actually be an evil spirit.”

huh?

“Because it was Baekho Lee who spread the rumor that he was an evil spirit.”

…Lee Baek-ho?

He revealed my identity?

As I was inwardly shocked Deer Antler casually spewed out even more shocking information.

“The first source would have been that woman Mischa Karlstein?”

…huh? Misha?

“Isn’t that what it is? “That woman is now one of Lee Baek-ho’s colleagues.”

No what does this mean?

Why is Misha Lee Baek-ho’s colleague?

“Pisit fortunately the green light came on. “She thought that everyone didn’t know that the enemy Miao woman had become Lee Baek-ho’s colleague.”

Information that was difficult for her to accept was being fed to her in real time making her feel dizzy but she held on without showing any signs of it determined not to show it.

In that state the next turn came.

“…It’s not easy after all.”

The goblin who received a red light twice for spitting out war-related information succeeded in getting a green light on the third try.

It was information about the internal circumstances of the Leatlas Church.

This was not surprising as he always had a habit of selling out his church when he was cornered.

“Now it’s me again.”

It’s the crescent moon’s turn again.

As the story about Erwen came out earlier I became interested but unfortunately the information that came out was so-so.

This is because it was information related to the war.

The deer antlers that came next were all the same.

“Pisit it looks like the royal family has properly drawn the sword this time.”

I think it was quite important information since the clown always laughed at deer antlers like that but for me right now the war was a good story.

Scattered colleagues.

Clearing the false accusation(?) of evil spirits etc.

Because there is a lot of homework to complete first.

In that sense I was at least interested in the fox’s information.

Or should I say I’m worried?

“A few months ago a double number was obtained at the Alminus Central Exchange. An unidentified woman is said to have borrowed a large amount of money using it as collateral and her repayment date is just around the corner. Maybe she’ll see it on the exchange auction house soon.”

Surely… it’s not about my demon crusher is it?

Yeah probably not.

That kind Amelia couldn’t possibly do that right?

“….”

As I was struggling to rationalize I suddenly felt that people’s eyes were focused on me.

‘Oh it’s already my turn.’

Since she had decided what to say there was no need to worry now.

I slowly looked through each person one by one.

Everyone was looking forward to seeing what I would say.

Except for one person.

“….”

Perhaps because of what had happened in front of them the Soul Queens seemed more anxious than expected.

Are you the type of person who has high self-esteem but is more timid than you think?

‘Anyway I think this is enough of the moxibustion.’

After knocking the chair twice without much meaning I looked at the Soul Queens.

“I asked if I could handle it.”

Now it’s my turn to answer that question.

No strictly speaking it was a moment to ask back.

You are like that.

As the clown once said.

Are you really ready to handle it?

Gulp.

The moment the queen’s thin neck twitched I continued speaking without hesitation.

“The queen’s nickname is Soul Queens.”

As soon as the words were finished all members’ eyes focused on the jewel.

At this I burst into laughter without realizing it.

People aren’t finished talking yet.

“And the real name of Soul Queens is….”

Actually I don’t know either.

However as I looked at her she intentionally blurted out her words.

If there is no response ‘I’ll put it off for fun later.’ The decision was made to say the same thing and pretend to be merciful.

“Hoo.”

As I paused once more the interest in the members’ eyes grew even stronger.

The best among them was the clown.

Well he had been greatly embarrassed by this woman in the past.

“It would be nice if they weren’t the type of magic engineer who only sticks to the magic tower. Because then it’s hard to kill. Pississit….”

With the clown’s creepy laughter the Soul Queens’ neck flinched once more.

Knock knock.

I pounded the chair senselessly one more time.

And that moment.

“…Stop that!”

The words she wanted flowed from her mouth.

“Please stop… at least revealing my identity here…”

Tsk that would have happened a long time ago.
