Bjorn Yandel the Barbarian

Chapter 285



Chapter 285

Episode 285 Cause and Effect (1)

The sea with strong waves.

“Bjorn! Is Bjorn still there?”

“Yes. It’s time to come soon……”

Arua Raven stared at one place with the ‘coordinate transmitter’ tightly held in his hand. Like everyone on board this ship right now, an inexplicable feeling of anxiety was rising.

Bjorn Yandel.

Their leader, a barbarian left alone in front of a level 3 monster to buy time to escape.

“Something must be wrong. I have to go get it!”

“No! Didn’t you listen to Mr. Yandel? You told me not to come near you.”

“He always says that and does whatever he wants! That’s it. I’ll just do whatever I want now!”

“But how are you going? Mr. Yandel is fighting over there under the sea!”

“That’s…”

Misha blurted out.

Raven, who had raised his voice emotionally, chewed his lips and opened his mouth a little generously.

“Watch it. Mr. Yandel will surely come back intact.”

“Sorry for shouting.”

“No. I feel the same way.”

“Are you feeling the same way?”

To Misha’s question, Raven answered with a moment’s gap.

“……It’s a colleague.”

“Oh yeah… that’s right.”

There was an awkward silence after that.

All the while, the eyes of everyone on the boat stayed at the end of the road they had passed.

That was when about 5 more minutes had passed.

The ship that had dropped anchor and was anchored on the sea rocked greatly.

“The radish is draining!”

As if there was a flood, the rising sea level was lowering in real time.

“What, what? Bjorn is still there? Could it be… that he failed?”

“I don’t think so! If Stormgus was alive, there would be another storm!”

“Well then…”

“Yes! Mr. Yandel killed Stormgus!”

Raven shouted out in joy, and so did Misha.

“Ah, you crazy barbarian!! You said you were just holding on, what the hell were you doing down there!”

Contrary to what he said, Misha’s face was filled with only bright relief.

“Patsuran-san, turn the boat quickly!”

“That’s right!”

Raven hurriedly turned the boat around and headed for the island.

That was when

Flash-!

A white light shimmered and disappeared on the surface of the water like thunder from under the sea.

“What was the bar just like?”

“Ho, I’m sure there’s something wrong…?”

The eyes of the entire party, including the priestess, focused on Raven.

……It’s not like you know everything just because you’re a wizard.

“I don’t know either…….”

Where was the labyrinth like that?

There are more things we don’t know than what we know.

In the first place, this was the first time I had even seen Stormgush in person.

“…….”

Within time, the water level went down and gradually appeared from the center of the island, which was the most elevated area.

But the person he was looking for was nowhere to be found.

“Where did you disappear to? What are these devices here?”

The only thing left in the center of the island is the woman named Amelia and Bjorn’s equipment.

“There’s a nail here. Seeing that the rope is also tangled up, it’s clear that the old man was here a while ago…

“Then wait a minute, what is the equipment…? What is the equipment? There must be no reason to take off the equipment…” A

scene full of contradictions.

“…Let’s search the surroundings first. If it had been swept away by the water, it wouldn’t have gone far.”

Raven’s mind was complicated as well, but he gave the instructions as calmly as possible.

Didn’t Bjorn also tell you before?

When he’s not around, you have to be the leader.

“Here! More equipment! It’s the necklace Bjorn was wearing!”

“W Here’s your underwear!”

After that, the group scattered and started searching.

In the meantime, the water level continued to drop, and the island returned to its original state.

But…

“why…why is it nowhere to be found?”

Even after searching all over the island, Bjorn could not be found.

What the hell happened here?

I don’t know anything right now, but Raven said firmly.

“I wonder if Yandel is…”

“Mr. Urikfried, don’t say anything strange. I’m sure that person will be alive.”

To spit out positive words even if there is no basis.

Yes, the barbarian said that is what a leader is supposed to do.

So…

“From the circumstances, it’s clear that the two of us defeated Stormgush. We had the spirit to drive in nails to keep from being washed away. It may have been pushed down. Let’s go around and look for it.”

Afterwards, Raven took Patzran’s boat and searched all the nearby islands. In the process, there was a lot of speculation and sometimes quarrels.

But not everyone gave up hope.

Time passed like that……

“……I’ll meet you in the city.”

In the end, the labyrinth was closed without finding Bjorn.

Shaaaaaa-!

The light of the labyrinth announcing the return.

After returning to the city, Raven looked at the secluded dimension plaza and found a barbarian.

No one was immediately visible.

I went to the checkpoint to see if I had moved before I found it, but it was the same here.

“Bjorn? Was he in the plaza? The staff said there weren’t any explorers who passed earlier.”

“……I couldn’t find it in the plaza.”

Raven waited tirelessly with his colleagues who had arrived at the checkpoint first.

But even when the explorers all passed the checkpoint and left the plaza empty.

“…….”

Bjorn did not appear.

Despite the fact that they should have been able to meet here if they were still alive, no matter where they were in the labyrinth.

“Hey… Now it’s almost time to close the checkpoint.”

I didn’t show up until the staff started to notice.

It meant only one thing.

However, no one could easily put those words into their mouths.

“…….”

It was the time when such a heavy silence fell.

Einar, his only kinsman and warrior, uttered a short chant.

“Yes, Bjorn is dead.”

It was time to face reality.

***

There is a saying that even mountains and rivers change in 10 years.

But at least not here.

Even if the rivers and mountains change, it would have changed twice, but this city has not changed much.

Like the street in front of this checkpoint where I am now.

“Dad! Here! Here!”

“Ramirion, I’m glad you came back safely this time. Come on, go home. I’ve prepared something you like.”

Acquaintances or family members of the explorers who filled the checkpoint.

Even the buildings around it haven’t changed much.

There is only a slight difference in the signs hanging on the first floor of the building.

‘Originally there was a bar there, not a general store.’

It was a time when the difference between the past and the present was a bit strange, so I looked around to see if there was anything else.

A woman clung to the side.

It was Amelia.

“Oh come.”

“I made you wait. Were there any problems during the inspection?”

“As you said, I handed over my ID and exchanged magic stones.”

“Really? That’s good. Then let’s move on.”

“Where are you going?”

“First of all, from the clothing store.”

After meeting Amelia, I went to a nearby clothing store to buy clothes. And I got a lodging in District 7, which was my usual living area.

“After washing, come to my room. Let’s talk for a while.”

First, I went into the bathroom, wiped myself off, put on my new clothes, and headed to Amelia’s room.

Fortunately, the door opened right after I washed everything.

“What are you talking about?”

I asked as I sat down on the bed, and Amelia wiped her hair and sat down on a chair at the table across from me.

“I have one thing to check for you.”

“Try it.”

“Are you… thinking of going back?”

I was wondering what you were asking.

What are you talking about?

“Of course. I’ll go back no matter what.”

“Hmm, is that so?”

“Did you really think I would want to stay?”

“I thought that might be the case. You must have realized that you have now returned to the past.

“What does that have to do with it?”

“……This is 20 years ago. I don’t know about you, but if you take advantage of this time difference, you might live a much more comfortable life than before.” ”

I see.

” Barbarian, I don’t think

you’re feeling it yet, but the opportunity you have now is—”

Amelia cut off before it got any longer

. ”

No. ”

If I stay here, it’s just a penalty that my equipment, barely earned aristocratic status, and all of my precious colleagues I’ve worked hard to raise are all gone back to nothing. As for me, there’s no reason to

stay

. So don’t say any more about this part. If it wasn’t for you in the first place, I wouldn’t have gotten involved in this.”

“…I’m sorry about that part .”

I apologized for

being late .

there is a separate If you were planning on staying here, I wouldn’t tell you.”

Somehow, I felt full of scrutiny.

“Stop looking around and tell me

in your heart.” “I want you to help me while I’m staying in the past.”

I’ve never answered properly, so now please help me…….

Isn’t this looking at me a bit too much? “So

what do I get?”

“I’ll help you go back.”

You mean help?”

“…There is one way to do it.”

“Tell

me .” But…

“Use the record fragment stone once more.”

Amelia meekly told me what the method was,

but I didn’t understand it right away.

“The record fragment stone? It must have disappeared when I came here……”

I hesitated in the middle of spitting out my question.

“Ah…….”

It must not have disappeared at all.

This is the world 20 years ago.

“Yes, I am The writing is gone, but there is still one more left. At this time, the lord of the castle of Noark must be keeping it.”

I suddenly thought of the Genesis Noble Phantasm.

According to this theory, doesn’t it mean that the ‘Genesis Noble Phantasm’, the key item stolen from the last floor in the present time, also exists

? How is it going? Is there a way to clear it?’

There was such curiosity, but it was quickly dismissed.

First of all, even if you only care about going back to the

original time zone, it’s not enough…

Given that Amelia and I went through a time shift and were dropped on Farune Island, the opposite is likely to be the case.

It’s impossible to go back from here.

“…….”

Oh, my thoughts suddenly went elsewhere.

When I came to my senses, Amelia had stopped talking and was staring at me.

Poor Barbarian might not be able to concentrate.

“I can hear you, so tell me.”

“……The rest will be done after hearing your answer.”

Ha, it comes out like this, right?

At first I thought it was cheesy, but there was only one answer I could give. The plan to go back by

rewriting the ‘record fragment’ sounded the most plausible…

In order to get the item, Amelia’s help from Noark is essential.

I don’t even know where Seongju keeps it.

“Okay, so tell me. How can I help you?”

After my consent was rejected, Amelia put on a slightly strange expression.

He didn’t seem happy just by looking at it.

Or rather, should I say that he looks upset somewhere?

“Is something wrong?”

“…No. Because what he said couldn’t be true.”

“Is that him?”

He asked, but Amelia kept her mouth shut.

And after a while, he calmed down and started talking slowly. It was quite a long story, and when it was over, I finally found out.

A woman named Amelia Laneways.

What was the past that I wanted to change so much.

***

The next day when there was a long story.

“I may not be able to come because I am busy for a while.

Amelia left the room completely.

If you become a criminal, is there a shadowy scout who sneaks up on you and offers a helping hand and tries to recruit you as Noark?

He said he was planning to contact them.

Well, whether it’s me or them, going to Noark is an urgent priority if we want to achieve our goals.

‘I didn’t know that I would go all the way to Noark.’

Anyway, the period Amelia said was about three weeks.

They say they stop by midway and tell you the progress, so if something changes in your plan, you can listen to it then.

‘What should I do now?’

My body itches from being left alone in my room.

Maybe it’s my curiosity as a gamer.

Isn’t this the world 20 years ago?

‘Shall we take a look?’

As soon as I had that thought, I put on my clothes and left the inn. Even though Amelia repeatedly told me not to get into trouble and just breathe… ‘Honestly, how can I put up with

this?’

Could there be something special?
