Bjorn Yandel the Barbarian

Episode 711

Special Force (2)

There may be a traitor among the noble families.

This isn’t just a saying, it’s the truth.

They say you can know the depth of ten feet of water, but not the heart of a person. It is not surprising that among the many noble families that number in the thousands, one or two may have different thoughts.

“I really want to become a Marquis?”

“Yes, maybe the Marquis was involved.”

Oh, of course, that was just a remark.

The Marquis is not crazy, and he is essentially acting as the king’s proxy and the number one authority in the kingdom, so why is he joining hands with those guys?

I think the possibility is extremely low.

‘Hmm… But maybe it’s not like it doesn’t exist at all?’

Honestly, I don’t think it’s completely impossible.

Marquis, is there one or two things that are suspicious about that guy?

The guy has a secret.

So, I’m going to take this opportunity to look through the house.

“Uh… Okay, can I go to the bathroom for a moment?”

Oh my, I can tell just by looking at the kid that he’s trying to get in touch with me because he’s behind me…

“No way”

“Ha, but it’s really urgent.”

“Is going to the bathroom more urgent than saving this country?”

“······”

As expected, when the name of the ‘country’ is sold, Mumu cannot refute it.

“Wrap it in your pants”

“······”

With that, the words that he was going to the bathroom disappeared.

However, since there were signs that Mumu was about to deviate, I also prepared something in advance.

“Raven·”

“yes?”

“I heard there is also a spell that emits interference waves to prevent contact with the outside world. Is that possible while moving?”

“Unless you have an auxiliary magic tool, you can’t go that wide. About a 3m radius?”

“What if we don’t need to block things coming from the outside, and only block things going from the inside out?”

“Well, then I guess I can write a little more broadly.”

Oh, really?

“Do it now. This mission is top secret.”

After that, Raven immediately used magic, and Mumu, who had lost his way to contact the outside world, smiled awkwardly with a very stiff expression.

“What are you splitting up by yourself? Let’s go quickly.”

After checking the security of the special forces, we headed straight to the Marquis’ mansion.

But if it’s just a show, should I just call it a show?

Even though I didn’t tell him to do it separately, Raven moved right next to Mumu.

“Wouldn’t it be better to go next to Baron Yandel?”

“No? I’m comfortable here. Why would you want me to go there?”

“······”

Hey, you should just give up and follow me. You’re still being stubborn to the end.

Usually, those kinds of kids don’t live long.

That’s true, what lizard would give up on its tail without any regrets?

“······”

As the silence grew quiet, the other members began to murmur.

The content was very simple.

“Is it really okay for this to happen?”

“Then you try to stop it.”

“But… doesn’t the Baron have a point? Since it’s a unit created by the Prime Minister, you don’t have to worry about the aftermath—·”

“No, what are you talking about! I’m on my way to raid His Excellency’s residence right now!”

“Oh, right, that’s right. That’s right…”

“···If this goes wrong, won’t we all be dragged to court?”

They were feeling very resistant to the idea of ​​raiding the house of the Marquis, who was practically the number one man in Lapdonia.

but····

“Let’s go anyway. What can we do?”

“···That’s true too·”

They knew that the law was far away, but the Barbarians were close, so they only whispered among themselves and expressed their anxiety without taking action.

“I… Baron Yandel, what are you doing here…?”

After arriving at the writer’s house,

The butler of the writer’s house, who had become completely familiar to me, looked at me and expressed his doubts.

“I have not received any word from Your Majesty the Marquis, but unless you have made an appointment—”

“Today I did not come to Bjorn Yandell.”

“···yes?”

“Today, I came here as the leader of the ‘Special Search Unit’ belonging to the Military Command.”

When I revealed my new identity that I had acquired today, the butler looked even more confused.

Yeah, I guess so.

From the beginning, I didn’t even know what kind of group the ‘Special Search Team’ was…

“What on earth is the special search team doing here…?”

As a butler, you would never have imagined it.

Living as the butler of a writer who has the power to make even a tiger lie down flat when he blows his nose, he must have lacked imagination.

“The reason we came here is simple.

“······”

“Let me search for a moment.”

“···yes?”

After saying that, the butler ignored the questions and went inside.

Well, although there were times when the members hesitated and couldn’t easily take their steps…

“What are you guys doing? Why don’t you go in quickly?”

“···yes·”

When I looked back, the agents followed me so quickly that I was scared.

Of course, the soldiers of the Marquis, who at first seemed to be wondering what was going on, also stood in our way with an awkward posture.

But is it because there was a record of causing trouble here last time?

“That… me, Your Excellency the Baron?”

“Hey, you can’t do that here.”

“If His Majesty the Marquis knows this fact······”

Soldiers who try to resolve the situation through dialogue rather than actively using force to stop me.

Well, if it could be resolved with words, you wouldn’t have come.

“I am Bjorn Jandel, the leader of the Special Search Unit under the Military Command! Everyone, get out of the way! If you block our path or interfere with what we are trying to do, you will be considered a traitor in collusion with the Noarks and will be punished!”

When I, who had trespassed, instead of being intimidated by the name of the Marquis, stood up strongly, even the butler, including the soldiers, looked confused.

Did something really happen?

So what did I come to know?

At that time, everyone was standing there with that exact feeling, unable to do anything.

‘There are indeed smart guys out there.’

Among the soldiers, some with exceptional judgment rushed at me.

“This is the residence of Marquis Terselion, the prime minister of this country!”

“It is my duty to protect this mansion.”

“Wow!!”

Of course, as soon as they rushed in, I hit them with a hammer and they all passed out.

You might wonder why you even bothered to do this if you were going to be treated so badly, but I held them in high regard.

That’s true, isn’t it?

If you can’t stop it anyway, it’s better to fight and pass out.

At least I can keep my job.

Unlike those foolish guys,

“Uh uh····”

“uh····”

Every time I take a step forward, soldiers step back.

When I look at them, I suddenly have this thought:

I don’t know for sure, but I’m sure there will be dozens of unemployed people in the Marquisate after I leave.

Oh, of course it wasn’t my concern.

Where in the world can you find a job for life these days?

“I, I, I, I really came all the way into the house······”

The agents who followed me into the building were trembling, perhaps worried about what would happen next.

It was time for me to start exercising leadership.

“Don’t worry, I’ll take responsibility for everything. I’ll make sure that no one gets hurt.”

A hero who always keeps his word.

A warrior among warriors who doesn’t know how to lie at all.

Maybe because of that image, the expressions on the members’ faces have improved a little.

“From now on, there is only one thing you have to do. Follow me and search this house thoroughly to see if there is anything suspicious.”

“······”

“Come on, let’s find out! This isn’t an opportunity that comes every day!”

After a brief period of consolidation, the search of the house began in earnest.

Clang!

Smash the statue where the ‘Noarkin’ might be hiding with a hammer.

Ddukduk·

He violently tears down the picture frame where the ‘Noarkin’ might be hiding.

“Hmm, it’s not here either.”

“Is that… really okay?”

“It’s not like this is okay, this is how it’s supposed to be done. Searching is…”

The royal search party members who were lectured by the barbarian about what ‘search’ was were pale in the face, but maybe it was because I took the first bold step.

“Ah! I don’t know!”

“Tear it down! Since it’s a nobleman’s mansion, there’s bound to be at least one secret passageway!”

Like a baby bird growing up watching its mother bird

The search party members who followed me also threw away any thoughts of what would happen later and continued the search in my own way.

Quasi-

Clang·

Dddd …

The writer’s house quickly becomes a mess.

The butler who first welcomed me watched the search process with excitement as if he had been struck by lightning.

The reaction was really funny.

“Ugh! How much is that···!”

It starts with feeling like your money is disappearing.

“No! No! There’s nothing behind that frame, so don’t open it!”

“It looks even more suspicious. Hurry up and tear it off… Is it really gone?”

“AAAAAHH …

And then he bursts out in angry shouts.

“I’m finished… I’m finished…”

He seemed to have sensed his own future, so he lowered his head and muttered to himself····

“Hurry up, hurry up! I don’t have time to look at it in detail, so do it quickly!”

From now on, it was a fight against time.

Now that things have gotten to this point, the Marquis must have heard about what we are doing.

Yeah, so···

1st floor, 2nd floor, 3rd floor···

Burn the house of the Marquis of Tercerion to the ground faster and more accurately.

But is it because he knows that this is the precious house where the Marquis was born and raised, and where the Marquis’ grandfather was also born and raised?

‘this····’

Stress relief is no joke.

“Behel—raaaaaaaaaaaaa!”

He gets even more excited and breaks things, and when there is no one to see, he moves his hands faster than his eyes and stuffs expensive-looking things into his pockets.

How long has it been since the search continued?

“I finally found it.”

A space presumed to be the Marquis’ study.

I just tore off the bookshelf attached to the wall, and a secret iron door hidden inside was revealed.

“Yeah, I thought there would be a hidden room or something.”

“What are you going to do? It looks pretty solid.”

“What should I do?”

Is this the first or second time this has happened?

“The character is wearing No. 687 Siege Slayer”

After quickly switching to a swap weapon,

Kwaaaaang-!

Swing the sledgehammer at the iron gate, swinging it again and again.

However, the door was so thick that it only got dented every time I swung the hammer, but there was no sign of it breaking.

‘If things continue like this, it’ll probably take quite some time…’

What should I do?

While I was pondering this, one of our search party members stepped forward.

“Can I try that?”

Oh, come to think of it, there were quite a few knights among us.

“Try it”

As soon as they got out of the way, the knights began to cut through the iron gate, emitting auras.

The door, which was made of some unknown metal, was resistant to aura, but eventually it was cut little by little until the lock was cut off and the door was opened.

“It’s the Prime Minister’s secret space····”

I wonder what’s hidden under those stairs?

At that moment, as I was about to go down, my curiosity grew.

“Baron, I will not go in.”

“Me too, me too”

Our brave agents who worked hard to search the house are now retreating.

The reason was really simple:

“We also know that our lives are precious.”

“You have to know how not to see what you shouldn’t see in order to survive long.”

Well, that’s true.

From their perspective, this might feel like a life-or-death situation.

Because I’m trying to peek into the Marquis’ ‘secret’.

“Okay, then I’ll go and come back here alone.”

“···Yes? By yourself?”

Raven seemed to want to follow along, but I shook my head and stopped her.

On second thought, I thought it would be better for me to just quickly go and see this by myself.

thus····

“Come soon. If someone tries to come, just stop them.”

With those words, he headed down the stairs hidden behind the iron gate alone.

The stairs were not as deep as I thought, and soon a space large enough for people to live in appeared.

However, I didn’t know how to light a fire, so I took a candle out of my bag.

and····

Hwaruk-!

The stone room is brightly lit after activating the Bavarian Candle mode for the first time in a while.

I checked my surroundings and froze in shock.

Bookcases located on both sides of the wall

A small desk and chair for work.

If you just look at this, it looks like an ordinary secret study room(?), but····

“Wow, fuck····”

For the first time in a long time, I’ve been cursing out loud.

Even if there was a secret plan to kill me hidden here, it wouldn’t have been this bad, but I couldn’t help it.

Of course, on the bookshelf, on the desk, on the wall, and even on the ceiling where you have to look up.

“···What the heck is this?”

Pictures of a woman were stuck all over the place.

Just like a stalker’s room.
