Surviving the Game as a Barbarian – 440
by Jessie@AFNCC
Episode 440 Giant Step (2)
The green light that flickered for a moment had long since faded away but a heavy silence followed.
“….”
“….”
A reaction like a student being scolded by a scary teacher.
Seeing grown adults doing something like that might make me feel sad but for some reason seeing that just makes me even more annoyed.
‘If I had known this would happen I would have just stayed home and slept.’
Everyone is so into it.
How much have you neglected the supply of information?
I didn’t come here with my tired body just to hear this kind of story.
‘Ah I’m so sleepy I’m really going to die….’
Maybe I’m sensitive because of fatigue.
No it definitely will.
If I were in a sane state I wouldn’t have been this irritated or become this emotional just because I was irritated.
Tuk-tuk.
I feel a little more worried.
Should we finish now before we waste more time?
Well I’m a little disappointed about that….
Tuk.
After finishing my thoughts I slowly opened my mouth.
“One more time.”
Okay let’s take one more lap.
You never know what will come out right?
“I’ll give you a chance.”
As I said that and looked around the members who made eye contact started flinching and looking at each other.
It was satisfying in many ways.

If this kind of atmosphere is created members are more likely to bring out information they have been cherishing…
‘Luckily no one pointed it out.’
Very naturally my turn was skipped.
‘It all looked like garbage.’ With one comment I could eat a whole wheel raw.
‘I’m sure you’re a little annoyed thinking about it like this.’
With that in mind I waited for the car for a while.
One of the members who was exchanging glances took the first step forward carrying a gun.
“…Then let’s do this lap in reverse order. Fishit.”
Even in this situation the clown looks at me while letting out his signature laugh.
Still I was quite excited.
I could sense some determination in his voice.
The reason I took the first turn was probably because I was somewhat confident.
“But before we start….”
Soon the clown looked around at the members and said.
“I hope no one wants to eat it raw this time.”
At first I thought he was sniping at me but I quickly realized that wasn’t the case.
Now the clown was giving a warning.
I will also take out what I cherish so you should do the same.
“….”
Unfortunately no member responded to the warning.
However did you take that silence as an affirmation?
Soon the clown placed his hand on the jewel.
and….
“In Noark plans are being made to invade the city.”
As soon as the green light comes on.
“…!”
The members’ pupils which were hidden behind masks widen greatly. I was so tired that I couldn’t react but I wasn’t that surprised.
That’s right….
“Invasion of the city?”
I’m not talking about a war in a labyrinth but a city invasion.
Doesn’t this mean that those who went outside are planning to invade Lapdonia?
“…Why?”
The fox asked the clown without hiding his confusion.
“I heard it’s fine outside? “Is there a need for the Noark faction to go that far?”
It’s a reasonable question and something I’ve been thinking about as well.
It’s the same as going outside without a hitch and then entering the labyrinth to gain strength…
Invasion of the city this time?

‘…Isn’t it such a nice situation outside? Or is there a reason why the royal family must be brought down?’
There are many questionable parts but the clown was reluctant to answer them.
“Well… my turn is over? Fishit.”
Yes this is enough to get through one turn.
Afterwards the clown glanced at me and put his back against the chair as if he had finished his turn.
It’s the queen’s turn to return.
“….”
Even though it was her turn the queen remained silent for a moment.
An atmosphere that seems to be worrying somewhere.
The clown sensed this and quickly shouted without wasting time.
“What are you worrying about? “You’re not planning on just skipping this time right?”
“…I was just thinking about it for a moment.”
The Queen answered curtly and immediately placed her hand on her jewel. One way or another the clown’s remarks turned her off.
‘Nice assist.’
As she waited giving the clown a compliment sticker in her heart the queen soon opened her mouth.
“This is one piece of information that I was able to confirm for sure only recently.”
But what on earth am I going to say with this long introduction?
“The Master of the Round Table is Auril Gavis.”
…what?
***
Master of the Round Table.
He is the one who created a secret meeting by recruiting promising players.
Actually I was thinking about it.
I wondered if the old man I saw once was Auril Gavis.
The beginning of doubt was in a past era.
[If you want to add the rules you mentioned you’ll probably need to give it more authority.]
I built a system similar to the round table with the old guy about 22 years ago.
Of course it’s only suspicious up to this point but there’s a good chance that it’s just a coincidence. You don’t need a special idea it’s something anyone can do.
What was really odd was the other part.
‘We do the same things to each other.’
Auril Gavis created this spiritual world and implicitly helped gather promising talent and help them grow well.
Just like the Master did at this round table.
“What do you mean? “He is… Auril Gavis?”
The fox who had seemed to follow the Master from the beginning had a mental breakdown and muttered but the Queen’s answer did not change.
“That’s literally it.”
“So he’s the one who brought us to this world…?”
“According to what we checked yes.”
Perhaps because he knew that the GM was behind the queen the fox couldn’t even throw another word of negativity and kept his mouth shut.
Soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow
As soon as her green light went out the Queen took her hand from her jewels and glanced at her jester. And she gave me a look as if asking how she was.
She was kind of funny.
I think my pride was quite hurt when I saw that he was looking at the clown before me…
‘These two somehow have good synergy.’
Okay from now on we should keep fighting whenever we get the chance.
‘The Master of the Round Table is Auril Gabisra….’
Although I secretly expected it it was a bit shocking.
But I decided to think about this old man properly later.
He’s tired now and his head isn’t working very well.
‘First of all let’s make sure we input properly today so we don’t forget…’
While the goal was being set again the situation was organized and attention was focused on the next person.
“Fox it’s your turn now.”
The third turn has already been reached.
Is it because the previous two pieces of information were so shocking?
His head was blank but his concentration was better than before.
‘Yes this is a round table.’
Is it really necessary to stimulate people when they become slack?
I touched a little bit and some good information came out.
Oh that’s why foxes shouldn’t blurt out expedition information…
‘There must be something else besides…’
As I was watching the fox with half worry and half anticipation the fox soon brought out information. It was information related to the large-scale clan boycott that had been mentioned before and perhaps no one knew about it and the gem was given a green light.
but….
“Mr. Fox are you kidding me?”
“…If things continue like this I don’t think I will be able to continue participating in these rallies from now on.”
The clown and the queen who had been fighting back and forth joined forces this time to object and in the end the fox had to try one more time.
It was such a pity.
“Illya Adnus the leader of the Explorers’ Guild sent Sejak in the hope that this royal expedition will fail.”
If it weren’t for this situation no information related to the expedition would have been mentioned.
Tsk… does this mean that you are self-employed?
‘Well this doesn’t have much of an impact.’
Still I decided to think positively.
There is no guarantee that the guild leader is our ally in the first place.
Additionally if information is made public like this other members may obtain new information while conducting research.
‘Hmm… maybe I mentioned that with that in mind.’
I let go of my regrets and focused on observing the members’ eyes.
The clown said ‘Guild leader?’ It felt like it was happening but the queen wasn’t sure.
The goblin glanced at the fox as if concerned…
“Lord Ardners… Sejak…?”
A deer antler presumed to belong to the royal family reacted a little harshly.
Yeah it looks like you guys didn’t know about it at all.
“Well first of all the green light came on…”
Crescent Moon who had been quiet throughout the second lap noticed and started crying. It meant that there was anyone who could raise an objection.
but….
“Pisit I don’t know. “It’s still not enough but…”
“Because the information mentioned above was actually information that others did not know.”
The fox’s turn ended with the feeling that he had barely made the minimum cut by using two pieces of information.
So now the problem is goblins?
“…Now it’s my turn.”
I just hope you don’t say anything weird.
“Why are you so nervous? Fishit. “No one here expects anything from you.”
“well. “Isn’t that just your opinion as a clown?”
“Queen Fishit you seem different?”
“…If you look closely at squirrels in the winter you’ll find at least one acorn hidden in their cheeks.”
A murmur that you can’t tell if it’s a compliment or a criticism.
To this the goblin who was walking around answered in a strange voice.
“Uh… thank you…?”
It seemed like he decided to accept it as a compliment.
“Pisit is this person clueless or just clueless? “Okay let’s do it quickly right?”
“Ah yes… an oracle… an oracle came down—”
“…Is this an oracle again? “Why does the Leatlasian goddess have so much to say?”
“This is not our church but an oracle handed down from the Tobera Church!”
“Hmm? Toberakyo?”
“yes! Toberanism. “I don’t know if you know but it’s famous as a place where trusts aren’t used often—”
“There’s no need for small talk so how about we quickly tell you about the contents of the trust?”
At the clown’s urging the goblin sighed and got straight to the point.
“The wise man of eternal life has returned.”
Very short one-line information.
The green light came on but the response was not good.
“…is that the end?”
“Yes… that’s what it was about.”
The clown laughed as if it were absurd and the queen asked an additional question.
“Were there any notes interpreted by cardinals or high priests? “I think that would be helpful in judging the value of the information.”
“…there was none. In the first place… I was only able to hear the contents of the trust…”
A hint of confusion was evident in the goblin’s voice.
For some reason this situation seemed unexpected.
Actually this wheel is a bit special.
Normally if it was a trust it was a free pass no matter what the content was.
‘…Let me help you.’
If you just leave it alone you never know what information it will reveal.
After making that decision she immediately interrupted the clown and joined the conversation.
“Pisit. I think everyone thinks it’s a little lacking so why not try again with something else—”
“He is a wise man of eternal life….”
“……yes?”
A modification that only I can do at this meeting.
By name…
“So he came back….”
Sujajaryu (雄獅子流).
Type 5 is judged to be enjoyable.
“That’s interesting.”
I say so so what are you going to do?
“…!!”
[Dungeon & Stone] is definitely a team game.
