How a Black-Haired Barbarian Survived the Labyrinth in Another World-Chapter 29: Shouldn’t the porter Barbaroi be allowed to pursue the Labyrinth’s food?
Clang!
The inn door opened and Darmon came in. He was holding a basket with bread, dried meat, and cheese.
“The other inns are all the same. It’s a total mess.”
He grumbled and came in, locking eyes with the knights.
“Darmon! It’s been a while.”
The knight commander, who was quite drunk, smiled and waved.
“Cain.”
The knight commander’s name was Cain.
“I said I wasn’t doing business today.”
“I came to see you. When else would I see you again?”
“Do you want to have dinner and go?”
Cain got up from his seat.
“No. We have work tomorrow too, so we have to go home early.”
“Okay.”
“Let’s go. It’s nice to see you again after such a long time. Darmon.”
Cain left the inn with the drunk knights.
Darmon approached the counter and placed the basket on it.
“Why are you drunk?”
“A man named Cain fed me.”
Darmon clicked his tongue at Jung Yu-shin.
“I can’t eat dinner. Go up and sleep.”
“Yes. Sorry.”
Jung Yu-shin went up to the second floor and threw himself on the bed in his room.
He brushed the hair stuck to his forehead and looked up at the dark ceiling.
“Teacher Mi-on’s panties...”
He closed his eyes.
“You envious brat.”
Jung Yu-shin fell asleep after thinking about whether or not to tell Mi-on.
* * *
The earthquake lasted for five days.
People on the streets were anxious.
Not only government offices in the city, but also stores and associations were closed.
The orphan academy and the swordsmanship association in the temple were also closed for safety reasons.
Darmon’s inn was no exception, so no guests came except for guests who had nowhere to go.
Everyone was crouching and anxious.
However, Jeong Yu-shin silently trained his body.
He does what he can.
A determination he has engraved in his heart since he fell into another world.
He caught Darmon, who was doing nothing, and asked him persistently about the monsters.
He dug into their characteristics, habits, and even behavior patterns, and remembered and reviewed them again.
He carried three sacks of flour in the yard, doing squats and running, regardless of whether there was an earthquake or not.
He constantly cast Sacred Weapon until his magic power ran out.
When his magic power ran out, he gritted his teeth and swung his sword until he was exhausted.
He constantly tried to recall what he had learned and make it his own.
Bap-ddong-dan.
He just eats, poops, and trains.
It was five days when his determination was revealed in action.
The training that started at dawn didn't end until evening.
The sunset spread across the yard.
Jung Yu-shin put his sword back in its scabbard and sat down.
His entire body was soaked in sweat.
“Whew. Whoosh.”
As he was catching his breath, someone called out from behind him.
“You’re working hard? Barbaroi.”
It was Karin.
“What’s going on?”
He answered without looking back. He heard footsteps and Karin’s voice got closer.
“The maze closure order has been lifted.”
‘It’s come.’
He turned his head and Karin’s face was so close that it was burdensome.
Karin’s nose wrinkled and he stepped back.
“Here, a towel.”
“Thank you.”
As a result of training all day, his entire body was soaked in sweat.
Jung Yu-shin unconsciously tried to take off his top, but then suddenly came to his senses.
“Go in first. I’ll wipe off my sweat and go in.”
“Just do it. It’s Barbaro. Weren’t you just going to take off your shirt? Are you embarrassed?”
Karin snickered.
Jung Yu-shin frowned.
He was annoyed at how he was being so relaxed, thinking he was stronger than him.
“Yes. If you want to see it, go ahead and see it.”
Jung Yu-shin took off his shirt and wiped every nook and cranny with a towel.
The white towel passed over his six-pack abs, his firm chest, and his armpits.
Karin watched the scene quietly.
Like a trainee watching a famous chef cook.
Gulp.
Karin’s Adam’s apple moved.
She stopped after wiping herself dry and putting on her shirt.
‘It’s uncomfortable.’
There were spare clothes on the second floor.
She had to pass through the kitchen and the inn’s dining room, but it was difficult to do so while naked. There were still a few guests in the inn.
When Jung Yu-shin stopped, Karin asked.
“Why...why?”
“I have to go get some clothes, but it’s a bit difficult to go naked.”
“Really? I’ll go. Where on the second floor?”
Jung Yu-shin explained which room she was staying in.
Karin nodded and held out her hand.
“Give me a shirt and a towel.”
“Yes?”
“Don’t you have a laundry basket? I’ll put it in for you while I’m there.”
“I do have one.”
Jung Yu-shin hesitated.
“I can do this much. I hired you.”
“Is that so? Here.”
He handed Karin the sweaty shirt and towel.
“Wait a minute. Okay?”
“Yes. Ah! Over there.”
Karin ran without even listening to Jung Yu-shin’s answer.
She tried to tell him that the laundry basket was under the bed, but Karin had already disappeared.
Jung Yu-shin crossed her arms and admired the setting sun.
And.
Ten minutes passed.
‘What is this?’
It would have been a 5-minute walk, but Karin hadn’t come back yet.
‘Should I go?’
‘I brought some clothes here.’
Karin came out into the yard with new clothes.
Her hair was disheveled, as if something urgent had happened, and her shirt was slightly soaked with sweat, revealing her red bra.
‘Yes. Thank you.’
She put on the clothes Karin gave her.
‘I checked the supplies while I was up there. I only collected the ‘necessary’ things. Good job.’
‘Ah. So that’s why you’re late.’
Jung Yu-shin nodded and agreed.
“Right. Let’s go to the restaurant first.”
“Yes.”
I could see Karin’s back as she walked ahead.
Her tail was languidly swinging from side to side.
Her buttocks wrapped in leather pants were strangely swaying.
Darmon, Jung Yu-shin, and Karin sat down at the table.
“Karin, is the labyrinth closure order really over?”
“Yes. But the situation has changed a bit. The closure order is being lifted with restrictions. The announcement will be made tomorrow. The formation of the labyrinth investigation team will be the day after.”
“That’s fast.”
“The discussion has already ended up up there. So...”
Karin paused and paused for a moment.
“The results of the analysis of the testimonies of the explorers who survived the labyrinth have come out.”
Jung Yu-shin and Darmon were quietly looking at Karin’s mouth.
“A new monster has appeared in the labyrinth.”
The silence fell.
Karin continued.
“I heard that new monsters have appeared in each layer. The earthquakes that have occurred these past few days are a reaction to that. I heard that the new monsters are driving out the old ones. Up.”
“Up?”
“Shallower layers.”
“Can monsters move between layers?”
“Yeah. It’s rare. Didn’t you know?”
The battle with the Hobgoblin Warrior flashed through my mind.
That’s right.
I thought the world was being cruel, but there was a reason.
“How can they move up?”
“There’s an abyssal energy rising from under the labyrinth. When it fills up a layer, a portal is randomly created in that layer. They say that if you enter there, you go up.”
Jeong Yu-shin stroked his chin.
“But why do you say ‘driving them out’? Isn’t it just moving randomly?”
“Demons avoid portals unless they’re in a really dire situation. I don’t know why.”
In addition, Jeong Yu-shin had a mountain of questions he wanted to ask.
But he held back.
In two days, he would enter the labyrinth. He didn’t want to ask about everything leisurely and make his head spin.
So he decided to ask only the most necessary questions.
“How far does our party go?”
Karin laughed.
“10th floor. And straighten up. You’re a porter.”
‘That’s right.’
He scratched his head in embarrassment.
‘Yeah. I’ll eat it raw while I’m at it.’
After finishing a few conversations, Karin got up from her seat..
“Ska, I’ll see you in two days.”
“Yes. Karin-sama.”
Karin left the inn.
Jung Yu-shin parted ways with Darmon and went up to his room on the second floor.
When he opened the door and entered the room, a strange scent tickled his nose.
A sticky, thick smell.
Suddenly, memories from his childhood came to mind.
[Mom! Why is the blanket wet and long?]
Young Jung Yu-shin pointed to the blanket hanging on the drying rack.
[Yu...Yu-shin. That... That’s right.]
His mother was embarrassed and tried to cover it up.
[Sniff sniff. Ugh! A strange smell!]
Young Jung Yu-shin covered his nose and stepped back.

[Yu...Yu-shin!! Don’t smell it! Ebi!]
His father gently grabbed Jung Yu-shin’s shoulder.
[Yu-shin, women. If you feel good...]
[Yeobot!!]
Her mother hurriedly ran over and patted her father on the back.
Jung Yu-shin shook her head to break her thoughts.
She must have lost her mind for a moment due to a vague memory.
Hmm.
No way?
Oh no way.
Jung Yu-shin went near the bed and touched the blanket.
It wasn't damp at all.
Was it a mistake?
She opened the window slightly to ventilate the room, then threw herself onto the bed.
Karin must have stayed in the room for too long because the pillow and blanket smelled.
The evening spring breeze blew in through the cracks in the window and lingered around the room.
She didn't feel like lifting a finger because she had been practicing all day.
She moved slowly on the bed, took off her pants, and threw them on the floor. She didn't feel like putting them in the laundry basket.
'I have to change my pants tomorrow.'
She closed her eyes in her panties.
Jung Yu-shin fell asleep.
Two days passed.
The labyrinth closure order was partially lifted and an investigation team was formed.
5 teams of high-ranking explorer parties.
20 teams of lieutenant explorer parties.
The party that Jung Yu-shin entered as a porter was a lieutenant explorer party.
They left the inn early in the morning and arrived in front of the labyrinth.
‘Are we going again?’
Jung Yu-shin raised his head and looked up at the huge stone monument.
He took in the entrance to the great labyrinth.
His heart trembled with tension and excitement.
“You’re here?”
When he turned around, Karin was standing there with his arms crossed.
Her hair was tied into a ponytail.
He was wearing black leather armor, two daggers were stuck in his sword belt, and a small crossbow was attached to his back.
Karin said a word when she saw Jung Yu-shin.
“Did you buy a good armor? Did you buy it with the money I gave you?”
“Yes.”
Jeong Yu-shin thought about yesterday for a moment.
He ran to Boron’s forge on the day the labyrinth closure order was lifted.
Next to Boron, who was lying down exhausted, was the light armor he had requested two weeks ago.
“It was a little late because of the earthquake, but it arrived on time.”
Instead of Boron, Einhofer spoke.
“And here.”
Einhofer held out a bottle containing black liquid.
“What is this?”
“High-grade blood oil. It prevents fat from sticking to your sword. It’s not enough in return for saving your life, but it’s the best I can give you now. I’ll pay you back slowly later.”
“Thank you. Please tell Boron I said hello.”
“Okay.”
He took the light armor and returned to the inn to check his supplies once more.
Just in case, I also brought blood oil and an anti-poison scroll.
Jung Yu-shin, who finished all the preparations and greeted Karin this morning.
While I was talking about this and that with Karin, people started to gather.
There were many races I had never seen before. There were lion beasts and large lizard beasts.
Among them, there was one person who really caught my eye.
Jung Yu-shin's eyes widened.
He found it.
A black-haired Barbaroi.
A height of over 2m.
All kinds of tattoos engraved on his vicious muscular body.
The black-haired man was standing with a double-edged axe as tall as himself.
A notorious outlaw in the labyrinth city.
If there was a hole, he was the embodiment of sexual desire that did not discriminate between men and women.
A vicious female hunter.
I had heard the bad words enough, but I had never seen his face, but /N_o_v_e_l_i_g_h_t/ now was my chance.
Jung Yu-shin stopped talking to Karin and observed Barbaroi more closely.
“Hmm. That guy.”
But when he actually looked at him, he just looked like a tall, muscular man.
Was it because he was looking from far away?
Jung Yu-shin tilted his head as he observed Barbaroi.
Then, Jung Yu-shin and the man’s eyes met.
The man grinned.
‘What is that?’
The man stuck out his thick tongue and licked his lips.
‘What the hell.’
It was a chill down his spine.
It was similar to the moment he first saw Seamus’s punch.
Jung Yu-shin instinctively grabbed the handle of his longsword. Anxiety rose up in his chest.
At that moment, someone suddenly appeared between Karin and Jung Yu-shin.
“Are you the porter?”
Jung Yu-shin barely managed to turn his head. A tall male elf was looking at Jung Yu-shin.
“Yes.”
“Roynel. Please take care of me.”
The elf held out his luggage. Jung Yu-shin took it and put it on his back.
A person wearing plate armor approached.
His face was covered by his helmet, so his gender and race could not be confirmed.
“Gilsian. Serves the spirit of light.”
Paladin.
He also took the luggage that Gilsian offered and put it on his back.
A middle-aged human male wearing a cloth suit.
“Ahiman. Mystic.”
He was a man with dark skin who looked like he was from the Middle East. Ahiman handed him the luggage.
Mystic.
‘Was there such a class?’
He swallowed his doubts. Judging by his blunt expression and tone of voice, it seemed like he would not give a kind answer even if he asked.
“Yes. Please take care of me.”
Jung Yu-shin greeted and packed Ahiman’s luggage.
Karin smiled and said.
“Do you know me?”
“Yes.”
Finally, he packed Karin’s luggage.
Carrying the luggage of four people on his back at once was not usually heavy.
Following Karin and Darmon’s advice, reducing his own luggage was the right answer.
Jung Yu-shin turned his head again and looked at Barbaroi, but Barbaroi was looking somewhere else.
“Attention!”
The blue-haired man in the front shouted.
“The plan was explained in advance, so there’s no need to talk any longer. Don’t be scared and don’t die! Let’s go!”
The blue-haired man entered the magic circle with his party.
The light flashed and the man and his party disappeared.
They entered the magic circle one by one, starting with the high-ranking explorers.
The line gradually shortened and it was Karin’s party’s turn.
“Let’s go!”
Karin shouted loudly.
With the paladin in the lead, Karin and the elf followed, and the mystic and Jung Yu-shin followed at the back.
They entered the magic circle and stood.
Jung Yu-shin took a deep breath. He forgot about the Barbaroi he had seen earlier.
He was fully prepared.
He gripped the longsword hilt that was fixed to his back again.
This was his third trip to the labyrinth.
He was the porter for the lieutenant explorer party, but he didn't let his guard down. Even when you're on the run, you need to be polite.
The labyrinth isn't an easy place.
The light flashed and he felt like he was floating in the sky.
