I Became the Hero of the Warrior Party

12 – Episode 11: Dark Barbarian Bandits – 4

Fear is relative.

While there are people who are afraid of supernatural beings such as ghosts, zombies, and monsters that often appear in the media,

Some fear more realistic horrors, such as a serial killer or waking up at dawn to find cockroaches crawling all over their bodies.

In my case, it was the latter.

Ever since I was young, I have believed that no matter how frightening a movie or painting is, it cannot compare to the horror of reality.

And, my thoughts were indeed correct.

If you had to choose between a ghost and a barbarian in front of you, you would want to lick the toes of the ghost and choose the ghost.

***

When I came to my senses, I was thrown into a huge room with my hands tied.

Next to me, I saw Rin with a troubled expression on her face, and Kyoko, who was afraid and maybe a little weepy.

“eww…”

Unable to hold my brittle head, I leaned against the wall and began to assess the situation.

Yeah, I foolishly gave her some distance.

A fist weighing approximately 0.3 tons hit the back of my head and I fell unconscious.

“Chop…! Chop… woke up…!”

“Is Joo Hyuk okay? Since I hadn’t woken up earlier, I was worried that something was wrong.”

Kyoko, who found me when I opened my eyes, spoke urgently.

Rin, who was looking at me with a worried expression, asked if I was okay.

“… We’re screwed, right?”

I wanted to deny this reality.

Unfortunately, none of them denied it.

“I am so afraid…”

“What do we mean now?”

They were muttering with anxious expressions on their faces.

I, too, was sitting in a daze in a state of despair in the current bleak situation.

“ah!”

In an instant, Kevin’s face came to mind.

Yes, Kevin’s party will still be here.

They’ll find out that we’re not at the confluence and they’ll come to get us.

It’s a bit unreliable, but unlike us, Kevin and the others aren’t pros with multiple battle experiences.

The only thing to look out for now was Kevin.

Dozens of minutes of waiting so impatiently.

The thick iron door started to open with a squeaking sound.

I couldn’t hide my joy as I cheered at Kevin’s appearance outside the door.

lived

Having firmly believed that I could get out of here intact, I was thrilled.

“Miss Kevin! to help…”

However, my expectations, which had been filled with fleeting hope when I saw Kevin open the door and entered, were shattered when I saw him tied up.

“sorry. We got caught too.”

You useless bastard!

Rather than holding on to vain hopes, I felt it was time to hope that I would not die painfully.

“Go in, Piggy.”

One of the members following me kicked Kevin, Velia, and Fermi and pushed them roughly into the side of me. Kevin looked around to see if he was trying to find a way out of the current situation.

Then, the floor began to vibrate lightly.

The vibration grew louder and eventually, as we reached the door, an even greater shock was felt through the ground.

“See you Unnya!”

An indescribably gigantic woman who was twice the size of the member who had captured Kevin entered the room with a thud.

The leader of the thieves, who clearly defied the laws of physics, began to scan the room, wondering how he could walk around that body.

“Smellers and mouse bitches have not been afraid to enter someone else’s house, it’s Piggy.”

The voice of the leader, called Unnya, was full of pressure, as if it was weighing down the world with its weight.

“yes? who is this Isn’t it Fermi that smells of honor?”

The leader’s gaze stopped in front of Fermi.

Fermi was in tears and seemed to be overcome with great fear.

“Don’t worry, Piggy. I will give you a chance to atone for your sins with the generosity of a barbarian.”

The leader gave Fermi a meaningful smile.

“I’ll have to do that, Piggy.”

A green light began to linger in the director’s hand as he slowly approached Fermi.

“No, no! As much as that…!”

“Fermi, it seems that the smell is firmly stained. Don’t worry Piggy. Through mental training, I will make you an honorable barbarian again. Go to that sniffer and prove your barbarian innocence, Piggy.”

Seeing him, Fermi was frightened.

She twisted her body desperately avoiding the captain, but because of the restraints of the members in the room, she faced the green light as it was.

The leader said to Fermi that he would make him a barbarian again.

Then he put his green-tinted hand on Fermi’s head.

“i, giyano, deseu, ung, chya-!”

In spite of Fermi’s terrible screams, the leader began to recite the spell.

With each syllable of an ancient incantation, Fermi was screaming.

And when the incantation ended, Fermi’s screams died down.

When the member who seemed to have waited released Fermi’s restraints, she began to walk slowly towards Kevin, who was looking at the scene with a surprised look.

“Isn’t that anchovy hogu Kevin?”

“Pe, Mr. Fermi…?”

Kevin stuttered in embarrassment at Fermi’s embarrassed tone.

“Don’t talk to me, Piggy. I thought you wouldn’t know that I was forcibly instilling false fantasies in order to make me stop being a noble barbarian and make me smell of honor.”

“Miss Fermi! What the heck does that mean…”

Towards Kevin who was screaming earnestly, Fermi was sending contemptuous eyes.

“Isn’t the reason you lied to me every day that you loved me with that sinister gaze was to make me the possession of a smelly person? For Kevin, who is ignorant of the smell, barbarian mental training is perfect, Piggy.”

“Please… Mr. Fermi… wake up!”

“Don’t call me by my name carelessly, Piggy.”

Fermi smiled mockingly at Kevin, who had a desperate expression on his face.

“Meeting Unya was a fateful encounter that connected me and the barbarian Piggy…”

Fermi, who now speaks a language that is no different from the other members here, was muttering with an expression overflowing with madness.

“Before I became a barbarian, every day was a dream, Piggy!”

Kevin, who was staggering as if he had received a great shock, soon lost consciousness and fell to the floor.

“f*ck.”

“Shit… how to do this… so frightening…”

In a terrible situation that unfolded in a short time, Kyoko hid herself behind my back and was trembling.

Of course, I was also trembling.

This place is hell.

It was clear that the bottom of the bottomless pit could not even go down further.

“Welcome back, Piggy.”

“Thank you, sister.”

Fermi got down on one knee and bowed his head to the leader.

The captain smiled contentedly.

“By the way, Fermi, why does the barbarian captain look so insignificant? You can’t believe you didn’t eat 15 meals a day properly, Piggy.”

“I’m sorry Unni…”

“Go right now and eat Hubba Hubba, Piggy.”

“Okay!”

Fermi hurriedly left the place.

“Well then, I will have to dispose of the rest of them.”

After Fermi left the room, the leader slowly began to scan our faces.

Rin was somehow avoiding her gaze as she brought her face closer, while Kyoko was trembling as she closed her eyes tightly.

And finally, my turn came.

Please, like them, I hoped they would just pass by.

please just pass by please.

Even though I prayed earnestly, this f*cking world didn’t answer my prayers,

“Oh, this smell is a pretty usable face. i liked it Take this bottle to my bed, Piggy.”

f*ck.

I felt as if all my energy was draining from my body at the fear beyond my limit.

It would have been less terrible if he had just said that he would kill him. No, what did I do wrong that threw me into this terrible hell?

One member was trying to drag me out of my mind.

It was then.

“Keuk!”

The member who was forcibly dragging me fell to the floor with a scream.

“What is Piggy!!”

When the startled leader and the rest of us, confused by the sudden situation, looked in that direction, Mr. Fermi, who should have left the room, was standing there.

With Warhammer dripping with blood.

“How did this happen…”

“In the first place… I didn’t get brainwashed from the start! I was just acting to save everyone!”

“It’s a lie! That brainwashing magic is high-level magic…!”

“I don’t know about you, but if you have love, you can endure that much with your mental strength!”

Fermi, who had been grinning at the collapsed Kevin, shouted at the leader, who had an expression of disbelief.

“Joo Hyuk! Get this!”

Fermi pushed me the Warhammer he had.

“My, it smells… Calm down, Piggy. Do you really think you can defeat me with that flimsy weapon? It’s obvious that this is impossible, so don’t go through unnecessary trouble and throw it away, Piggy.”

The leader clearly looked bewildered.

I bent down and started lifting the warhammer from the floor.

It must have been a heavy weight for me with average strength, but I began to exert dozens of times the strength of a human being pushed to the limit.

Rin and Kyoko were looking at me curiously.

“This guy looks stupid but somehow cool wwwwwww”

“For Ju-hyeok, who seemed powerless, to lift such a large weapon… I dare not ignore the power of a small countryman…”

Leaving aside their chattering words, I took a deep breath.

In an instant, an idea started to pop into my head.

It really came to my mind so suddenly, I should have been embarrassed, but I wasn’t shaken.

I just focused on the evil standing in front of me.

Heroic Destruction [勇士滅惡]

Until all evil in the world is gone, I will destroy evil as a hero.

Even if it is compulsory, it is the responsibility of the person who has been given the name of a hero.

Relax your body and focus on the cold feeling of iron on your fingertips.

What you wield is justice, not a weapon for killing.

I began to mutter the name of the skill that had been playing in my head.

It rebukes evil, and also rebukes the world tainted by evil.

rebuke [罵]

go to scold [喝]

“Maegal-!”

I smashed the captain’s head hard with my warhammer.
