BXBX NOVEL Chapter 504
It is not a well-thought-out statement that anyone can understand, nor is it a trust built up over a long period of time.
It’s the expression.
“This is…something oh misunderstood…!”
Even if you say it with a face like that, it’s not convincing.
“I tried it once, but it must have been real human blood.”
Occasionally, there are professional liars who even control the momentary movement of facial muscles, but fortunately, this opponent was not that type.
“…That’s why this… is a misunderstanding—!”
“Tell me. I’ll listen.”
When the name was called, Versil pretended to be on her own and activated the verification magic.
But…
“…This man seems to be stronger than he looks.”
Unfortunately, the magic failed.
If your Exorcism and Spirit levels reach a certain level, this magic won’t work.
Well, it’s not that I don’t understand.
It’s a small and medium-sized clan that I haven’t even heard of with 20 members, but the name is the leader, so I’m sure it’s at a certain level.
“What should I do?”
what to do
There is no reason to insist on one witness in the yard anyway.
“Try it to him.”
Soon, when he pointed at the archer, who had a weak impression, Versil cast his magic again.
“It worked.”
Yeah, just looking at it, I knew it would work for him.
“You there.”
“…Yes Baron…”
“You tell me. What happened here?”
After receiving the question, the archer’s face turned white, and he glanced at me alternately with the leader.
“Uh… that’s…”
It was his turn to lift the whip.
“Seeing that you can’t speak properly, it seems that saying that there was a misunderstanding was a lie after all?”
As he lowered his voice coldly, the captain pursed his lips and nodded.
“Jason, it’s okay, tell me.”
“Yes, I understand.”
The archer, who was busy keeping an eye on him, opened his mouth when the captain gave permission.
Listening to the circumstances, the words that there was a misunderstanding were not completely made up.
To sum it up, these guys were right to have found this place.
However, soon after, a team of six explorers appeared, and the incident began there.
“Did they covet your achievements?”
“It’s not like that…”
“Don’t be fooled, just say it.”
“That’s…”
It would have been better if they hadn’t seen anything, but the group of explorers noticed that these clans had discovered something.
Or at least they thought so.
So, fearing that the information would be leaked out, they captured a group of explorers.
“Then there was an accident.”
“What if it’s an accident?”
“The other side rebelled violently and killed one of us first…”
A battle took place from this point on, and the group of explorers ended up in a dark cave.
“A corpse?”
“……After removing the equipment, I used a solution to remove all of them.”
I see. Somehow, it seemed to have that peculiar smell.
“What I’ve said so far is true. Believe me. They hurt us first—”
what is he saying
“If they were captured without incident, did you intend to let them go without doing anything?”
“That’s…”
The archer himself couldn’t speak any more, as if he knew that it was a lie.
Then, this time, the silent leader stepped forward.
“So what’s wrong with that?”
“huh?”
“Do you think it would be different with those six guys? If it were us who were lacking in numbers, it would have been us who were deprived of achievements and died.”
What do you want to say
Well, it wasn’t a nonsense at all.
But…
“It’s just the difference. No one can blame us. Even if it’s you, Baron Yandel!”
He fearlessly lays out his logic in front of me.
“Then it won’t be a problem if I kill you all here? No one will blame us.”
When I accepted it with the same logic, he opened his eyes wide in disbelief.
“If you do that, your reputation will—!”
“Why are you going to become a ghost and spread rumors?”
“……!”
Gradually, he seemed to have realized.
That Bjorn, the son of the giant Yandel, is not as noble as rumors have it.
“Anyway, the story ends here.”
At this point, the conversation was over and the meeting was held.
There was only one agenda for the meeting.
“What do you think should be done with these guys?
“I am the one who kills.”
Starting with Erwen, who gave his opinion without hesitation, each member gave his opinion.
“What about you, Misha?”
“Well… Wouldn’t it be better to kill him…? I’d like to…”
“I’m of the same opinion as Mr. Karlstein.”
Misha and Versil were on the side of killing, while Auyen and Einar were on the side of saving.
And…
“I’m the one who wants to keep alive.”
Unexpectedly, I voted for Amelia to save.
So this time I couldn’t help but ask.
“Why?”
“If you want to punish them, it’s a reasonable procedure to leave it to the guild.”
what is this…?
I really didn’t expect such a model student word to come out of his mouth.
As I stared blankly, Amelia averted her gaze.
“And…”
“…?”
“I thought that would be good for you.”
“……what?”
“It’s just my opinion, don’t listen too much.”
“No, that’s not it. You think it’ll be good for me? What does that mean?”
When asked seriously, Amelia thought about it for a while, but then gave an answer.
“Listen without being offended by Yandel. You are in a very unstable state right now.”
“……Unstable condition?”
“Have they harmed you so far? Or did they try to kill you? No. Actually, even if we send them back alive, they won’t pose any threat to you. But now you’re looking for a reason to kill them.”
looking for a reason
They don’t see me as some kind of psycho barbarian.
“I think there’s a misunderstanding, Emily. I’m not—”
“Wasn’t it really?”
It really wasn’t.
I had to answer that, but for some reason my mouth didn’t come out the moment I saw Amelia’s eyes.
Those eyes weren’t blaming me.
It was just a look of deep concern.
“… Coincidentally, there are three who want to kill and three who want to save.”
Amelia said soon.
“What’s left of Yandel is your choice.”
what should i do
***
Kill them or save them.
I never thought that I would be so serious about this problem.
And maybe… that’s why.
Amelia’s putting the brakes on like this.
Because I was really worried about ‘Lee Han-soo’, who had fought for several years in the body of a warrior.
“An archer.”
“…yes?”
I asked him one last thing.
“Has any of your colleagues, including you, had experience with looting?”
“…No. We… are not that clan. This time, it’s just… everyone was blinded by greed and lost their senses for a moment.”
“It’s true.”
yes that’s right
“You Bersil, take these guys’ testimony again accurately and put it in a crystal ball for record. Emily, you rummage through your belongings and find the victim’s ID card. Oh, and besides that, pack everything that you can present to the guild as evidence.”
“That means…….”
“I’ll leave it up to the guild to decide whether or not to regard these guys as looters.”
It was just annoying and cumbersome.
That thought still lingered in my head, but once I had made my decision, everything went smoothly.
“Until the labyrinth is closed, don’t make any other accidents. The guild will also thoroughly investigate this exploration.”
“…of course!”
Okay, so this is the end of this problem.
“But what was in it?”
“There is a tombstone.”
“zeolite?”
I think it would be quicker to see for yourself.
While Amelia and Versil were digging up testimony and evidence, I approached the wall and looked through the cracks.
Just looking at the arm, it wasn’t the right size for me.
‘I’m not discriminating against barbarians.’
After thinking for a while, I hit the wall with a hammer.
Aaaaaang-! Hooded-!
Fragments that coolly smashed and fell.
After hitting the rim a few more times with a hammer, the wall completely collapsed and a path appeared.
And…
“Ohhh! It looks exactly like the portal tombstone!”
“How amazing.”
“Is it like a portal opening when you touch it?”
A single tombstone erected beyond the passage about 10 meters long. I immediately approached and put my hand on it, but there was no portal opening or anything.
‘Somehow, I thought I found it so easily. There are some special conditions, right?’
Still, it seemed like I had come to the right place.
Originally, there was no secret space like this in the crystal cave on the first floor.
‘Even the broken walls aren’t being restored.’
This is why the basis of the search for hidden peace is destruction.
Other things play, but if only one part doesn’t play, there is a high probability that that is the correct answer.
“Did you find out anything?”
“Not yet.”
“Right.”
Afterwards, as I was looking around the tombstone with my teammates, Amelia and Versil also joined.
It seems that the testimony and evidence collection is over.
Therefore, I let them go.
“Are you saying we’re going to go on like this?”
“Okay. Like I said earlier, don’t buy and hit.”
Even though he put on a confused expression, he took his clanmates and left, and only then did Versil speak cautiously.
“Is it really okay to send it like that? The information might spread.”
That’s right.
Actually, that’s why I wondered if it would be neat to kill them all.
But…
“It doesn’t matter.”
“You don’t mind?”
“Isn’t it a place that only those guys could find before the 3rd day. They seem to have misunderstood that they made a great discovery…
“That too… I guess so.”
“So, stop thinking about that problem and come and take a look? I want to use magic detection to see if there’s anything hidden.”
“yes.”
Since then, he has finished basic exploration with various methods, including magic, but unfortunately, there was no result.
But…
“Mr. Yandel, I think you’d better do this. There’s nothing to be found here—”
“Bjorn! Something is written here!”
A clue was found in a completely unexpected place.
As Einar dug up the ground around the tombstone, the words hidden under the tombstone appeared…
“I found it well.”
“Whoops . A highly trained warrior’s intuition is no different from magic. This is one of the reasons why barbarians are a superior race.”
“…….”
Ignoring Einar’s nonsense, I sat down and read the text.
“It’s an ancient language…….”
“It’s okay. Because I can read it.”
“The ancient language…?” Oh
, did you not tell them?
The world is always show-and-prove
.
One star, one sun, one moon.”
“Everyone on this land looking down is the same.”
“Because I will look up at you.”
As soon as the interpretation was over, Versil and Erwen’s expressions became strange.
“Mr. Yandel . This……”
“That’s what you heard there!”
“Yes.”
These are the words written on the witch statue at that time.
Unfortunately, Einar doesn’t seem to remember.
“… Huh? did you hear then? What are you talking about?”
“There is such a thing.”
Afterwards, we dug deeper under the tombstone, but nothing came out. At this point, we restored the digging site and went
out .
It was noticed that it became a headache, but it was difficult for me to sympathize.
Why can’t there be no clues?
‘One star, one sun, one moon.’ “From
now
on, we’re going to the second floor.
