Why do you think I met the Master?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I answer arrogantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because I don’t even know who the Master is.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That’s… a strange question. You’re a newbie who joined a year after the Master disappeared, wouldn’t it be natural to think that?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That’s probably why Fox tried to test you and got screwed over.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Fox Mask turns her head away in shame as the Clown mutters as if to himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘It seems like the Master refers to the founder of this gathering.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As I’m piecing together the information and trying to understand, Crescent Moon continues,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ahem, anyway, not only that, but you seem to know a lot about this place for a first-timer.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hmm, that’s not thanks to the Master, but to Lee Baekho.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wait, who the hell is that guy?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I make a mental note to gradually find out about Lee Baekho and end my thoughts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So can we get an answer to the question?

Alright.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crescent Moon cleanly lets go of his curiosity and steps back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If I seemed like a pushover, he would have definitely pestered me with questions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Anyway, leaving aside the Master, how about we get started?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Clown, who seems less interested in the Master’s whereabouts compared to the other three, wraps up the conversation and signals the start of the meeting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’m glad I knew the rules beforehand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If I had asked such a question here, my mysterious image would have been shattered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then I’ll go first.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The first turn goes to the Clown who initiated the conversation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The King of Lafdonia's illness has worsened.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A red light illuminates the jewel embedded in the center of the round table.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It means that the information is true and that more than half of the people gathered here know about it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Worsened?

Pathetic.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Clown glances at the Fox and Crescent Moon and then subtly looks at me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘You understand what I mean, right?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That kind of meaning seems to be embedded in his gaze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…………”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I just stay silent again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because I'll at least be in the middle ground then.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The captain of the Rose Knights died yesterday. How about this?

What is it?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Wouldn’t it be shameless to ask for that too? Anyway, it’s the next turn… huh?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crescent Moon, who was about to naturally pass the turn, freezes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s because the jewel emits a red light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unlike before, where anonymity was maintained, it’s easy to guess who already knew the information.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because the previous two made it obvious that they didn’t know.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Crescent Moon, don’t be too disappointed. Most people wouldn’t know what you’re talking about, you know?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crescent Moon sighs as the Clown offers words of comfort.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Until now, I just had to worry about Clown not knowing, but now there’s one more…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I shrug.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who told him to share something that you can learn just by playing the game?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You can just tell us about the hidden piece.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That is… it’s still a secret.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hoo, then you’ll inevitably be banned today—”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Haha, what are you talking about? I was just saying that it’s embarrassing because I have to reveal my hand.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crescent Moon sighs and then reveals new information.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“They say the fairies have found traces of the ‘Sacred Relic Thief’.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although the jewel emits a green light, the Fox narrows her eyes and raises an objection.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Traces? Isn’t that too vague?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Information about the ‘Sacred Relic Thief’, which had no leads until now. This alone is highly classified information.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hmm, fine. I’ll admit it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Crescent Moon, as expected, you were a fairy, weren’t you?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crescent Moon’s turn ends as the Fox, who raised the objection, backs down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And all eyes turn to me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Antler is still there, it’s naturally my turn since we’re going clockwise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘I’m getting nervous.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Is it because of their expectant gazes?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I feel pressured even though I’ve chosen some useful information to share during my turn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it’s all information they already know, it will be embarrassing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘I should just start with something I’m sure about.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I want to maintain my mysterious image as much as possible, so I select information that would be difficult for others to know.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If you kill a Demonic Halfling with three people, an essence is guaranteed to drop.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As expected, the jewel on the table emits a green light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…Kill a Demonic Halfling with three people?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why are they surprised about that part?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s easy to do it with three people on cheat mode, isn’t it?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘It’s even an easy monster to defeat…’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I can’t understand it at all.\u003C\u002Fp>",2741,"2026-06-05T19:32:49.064Z",1,"novelbin.me","1af219866351a2f0cfe4dc5429e82c231236362f8812ec6e520c4b1fa2f55c50","surviving-the-game-as-a-barbarian-chapter-126","surviving-the-game-as-a-barbarian-chapter-124",807,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fsurviving-the-game-as-a-barbarian-cover.jpg"]
