Bjorn Yandel the Barbarian - Chapter 129
Episode 129 Karlstein (3)
The head of the Carlstein family invited me to his mansion.
I heard that it has been going on for about three months.
If so, what could be the reason?
The first thing that came to mind was this.
‘curiosity.’
I just wanted to meet my daughter’s colleague, me.
If Misha was accepted as a member of the family, it was quite possible.
After meeting him, I thought it was possible to develop a situation where he asked me to let go of my daughter if I was unreliable. It seemed that most of the family’s offspring were doing explorer activities comfortably in large clans with connections.
But…
[I just need to be patient a little longer.]
As it turned out, Misha’s situation was still the same.
Author Abi kept the fact that Misha had awakened a secret and did not even try to improve Misha’s position in the family.
The moment you realize this.
I felt a shady malice from this mansion.
The malice that was directed not only towards Misha but towards me as well.
‘They called me here knowing that it was at this point……’
What is the purpose of the family head?
And it was very clear what he had chosen as the means.
‘He was a much crazier bastard than I’ve heard.’
Gaju wants something from me.
However, instead of politely setting up a negotiating table, we created this kind of place.
Perhaps this was the calculation.
Bjorn, the son of the little Balkan Yandel.
A warrior who did not abandon his comrades even from the hierarchical lord.
A barbarian who might be in a romantic relationship with that colleague.
If I, who is known to the public as such, saw this, I would have thought it would be easier to control. Because the only thing that could change Misha’s current situation was the family head.
But based on that, I judged.
‘You’re a day-eating bastard who takes advantage of even your daughter without hesitation. If you look down on her once, there’s no answer.’
Plan A is not enough.
If you finish here, you’ll just be an ordinary barbarian.
That’s why…….
turbug.
I take a step forward and stare at my brother.
He wasn’t scared at all when he saw me.
I just laugh like it’s not worth it.
“He’s a guy who never gets satisfied.”
He seemed to think I was babbling for something else.
If you look at it, I don’t think there’s anything wrong with it.
“Rain Bjorn…! That’s not working!!”
Misha hurriedly grabbed my wrist and I stopped.
I really had no intention of hitting this guy.
He is not a servant of the mansion, but one of his direct blood relatives.
Doing so with ignorance will become a weakness.
thus.
“Behel—laaaaaaa!!”
It roared so loudly that it could be heard from anywhere in the mansion.
My older brother frowned at my actions.
“What is this?”
“I just felt like doing it!”
“……Crazy bastard.”
No matter what he said, my shout became a catalyst and brought the people of the mansion together.
Employees who put down their work at the end of the corridor connected to the first floor and looked around.
Looking towards the second floor, I saw young men and women wearing high-quality everyday clothes.
‘Are you Misha’s brother?’
I don’t know, but they were looking down with curious eyes.
‘Anyway, as a spectator and witness, that’s enough.’
The stage must have been prepared. I finished the ignorant barbarian mode and talked to my brother.
“Talon Karlstein.”
“It’s not Talon, it’s Talon.”
“You pay attention to the little things unbecoming a man.”
“…It’s okay, what do you want to say?”
If you don’t want to discuss manliness with me, he asks the main point.
I asked straight forward.
“Why is Misha being treated this way within the family?”
“As I said before, it’s a family matter—”
“Is it because Misha is half penniless? You’re a direct blood relative, but you couldn’t even sign a contract with the soul tree?”
For a moment I was taken aback by my words.
He smiled and looked at Misha.
It was a look of contempt, wondering if he had confided all of that to this guy.
“There’s nothing to hide because you know. Yes, what you say is true. So stop paying attention to our family’s affairs.”
The guy’s words about not caring were quite reasonable.
Except for us barbarians, there is a culture that values bloodlines.
It was natural for them to treat Misha as a stranger.
If he had inherited the family head’s blood, there would have been nothing he couldn’t do to make a contract with the soul number.
There really isn’t a single drop of blood involved.
It seems that his mother, who was his fourth wife, had no children other than Misha.
But…
“What if that was your misunderstanding?”
The truth doesn’t matter.
The important thing now is that Misha has already awakened and can use this fact as a useful card.
“If Misha makes a contract with the Soul Tree, will you apologize for what you’ve done and accept her as a member?”
“I’m twenty-five, and there’s no way that’s going to happen—”
“Answer me. If you answer this, I won’t make a fuss anymore.”
My older brother sighed, touched his forehead, and opened his mouth in an annoyed voice.
“Okay, I’ll do as much as I can for an apology.”
“Are you accepting me as a member?”
“It’s the same.”
An older brother who answers without worrying about whether he thinks it can never happen.
I smiled and nodded my head.
“That’s all right.”
“Is it okay…?”
He asked in an anxious voice at my attitude.
Instead of answering, I shifted my gaze to Misha.
Well, my role is over now.
“Show me Misha.”
“Uh uh…?”
Mischa is taken aback when she suddenly becomes the center of attention. As soon as our eyes met, Misha lowered her head and murmured.
“But my father…….”
I wondered why he hadn’t come out yet.
But that’s why Misha has to give her strength.
Revealing this fact in front of everyone would mean that one of the family heads’ cards would disappear.
“Don’t worry. Nothing will happen.”
“……I won’t forgive you.”
“Then what about it? Say it’s wrong. Originally, family members do that.”
“Bjorn, maybe even you could be wrong.”
“That’s right. It’s not that scary.”
He’s like heavenly father to him, but to me he’s just the leader of the beastmen.
It is also divided into five.
“What’s so scary about it? Family isn’t everything in life. I’ve lived well without it.”
Soon after, I cleared my ears and said, and Misha laughed as if it was ridiculous.
“That’s you! No, that’s okay. What’s the use of this?”
“Yeah, just ignore the little things. It’s good for your mental health.”
“Ugh, I don’t even know anymore. What’s right.”
Okay, at this point, I think the persuasion is complete.
“Misha Karlstein, just do whatever you want for once.
I didn’t say any more after that.
Time passed at the end, and Misha raised her head and slowly looked around.
Would this situation have been interesting?
Many people were just watching from afar.
gulp.
Misha swallowed.
And it was at that very moment that he opened his mouth as if he were reflecting on his decision.
“I—”
A cold voice filled the expansive house.
At this, Misha was hardened like a stone, and when she came to her senses, a middle-aged man was standing in front of her.
“Everyone go away.”
At the words of the man, no one opened their mouth and left the seat.
The air that sank heavily as if it was being pressed down at some point.
The man’s gaze turns to me.
There wasn’t a word of introduction, but I knew who this guy was.
‘Yes, this guy is that crazy bastard.’
Albrenive Karlstein.
The head of the Carlstein family who has served as the chief of the Jeokmyo Tribe for generations.
“Thank you for accepting my invitation, Bjorn, son of Yandel.”
“Thank you for inviting me, Karlstein.”
In the middle of the lobby on the first floor, where everyone had disappeared, we exchanged formal greetings.
“Haha, you’re more polite than I thought, aren’t you?”
He smiled and approached me.
And instead of a handshake, he patted my shoulder as if he were dealing with someone below.
But what is this again?
「The character is put into a [fear] state by the [Nightmare Lord].」
His body stiffens as if he has met his natural enemy.
In addition, a tingling sensation blooms in the brain that I felt every time I went to and from the boundary of life and death. It was like he knew for the first time why Misha was so afraid of his father.
That was when
“But why did you do that? Out of manners.”
The householder suppresses his laughter and whispers.
I felt like a dog.
I know in my head that this is the power of skill, but my body doesn’t follow my words.
A feeling as if the sensory organs were damaged.
Of course, that time wasn’t long.
“The character’s exorcism is above a certain level.”
“The character’s fighting spirit is above a certain level.”
“The character’s mental strength is above a certain level.”
“[Fear] is canceled.
” .
“Look—”
I immediately took the babbling man’s arm off his shoulder.
“……?”
A furrowed brow as if he couldn’t understand.
Well, if I had anticipated this situation, I wouldn’t have said such an idiot like I just did.
“Why are you touching other people’s bodies?”
I threw the arm I was holding onto and said.
“Without manners.”
When the words that come are good, the words that go are good.
***
“That’s interesting.”
After a moment of silence, the head of state spoke.
It gave me goosebumps to say something like that without smiling at my mouth or eyes, but…
You can’t lose in a battle of strength.
“Your taste is unique. I’m not having fun at all.”
He responded calmly and grabbed Misha’s hand, which was as hard as a stone statue. At this, the head of
the household moved to Misha.
“Ah, father…”
I didn’t know.”
“That’s not it…”
“Okay, you’re not important anyway.
” Missha, who was trying to explain something, interrupted and stared at me.
.”
Don’t talk about it.
He said he
was planning to show me how Misha was treated there. As I stared at him without reply
, the family head continued. “I refuse.
”
“Why do I have to wait?”
Giving
time is foolish.
I
had no choice but to come out because of Missha, but this situation wouldn’t be in his plan.
Organize your thoughts first . “If you have something to say
, do
it
here.”
Did you not expect to be called
a
beastman
?
I was a little surprised, but it was still much weaker than the fox mask.
Well, it was a spiritual world.
The difference would be from the output. To
stop fooling around, the family owner asked with sincere curiosity.
“Are you really afraid of death? Wasn’t it?”
It sounded like a really useless question.
Aren’t you afraid of death?
How could such a person exist in this world?
“Well, I’m not sure about that. You don’t seem to be afraid.”
This is true.
That the family head was an explorer on the 8th floor in the past? That’s why,
in fact, if I fight with me, I’ll be crushed?
So
what
? Is it possible?”
I just asked again this time.
It was as absurd as that.
Killing me?
And me, the most promising talent among the barbarians recently?
In the middle of the prisoner’s holy land where I was invited? Immediately
after that, the fairy who had been there ten years ago Because the war with
the barbarians is such a race.
“What? Hahahahaha!!” Gajoo tried to pretend to be cool, but I
could
see deep anger inside
.
It must be frustrating.
You did. I never thought he
would be such a clever guy.”
“Thank you for the compliment, but I think I’m going to get hungry, so answer me. What do
you have to say to me?” I know you used it.”
Then all the questions were
answered
.
