Episode 22
One
Today definitely went off without a hitch. Most of the time, only low-level large monsters came out, and that was enough to solve without Siwoo or Jimin stepping out.
Nevertheless, Jimin stood at the forefront and killed the monster. It doesn’t seem to be a reason to develop the sense of responsibility and leadership of the squad leader.
Her sword drew a different trajectory than usual, and it seemed like she was practicing the sword Siu showed me yesterday. Fortunately, I seem to have gained something.
Thanks to Jimin’s performance, we were able to quickly reach our destination, and now all we have to do is return. Before that, I decided to take a break for about an hour.
There were many places to lean on because it was in a forest with trees the size of a high-rise apartment building. Siu sat down in a place away from the squad members, but not too far away.
“Would you like some water?”
“… no. are you okay.”
“How about chocolate?”
“are you okay.”
However, despite his efforts, there was a person who sneakily approached him like a squirrel.
Siwoo gritted his teeth and tried not to look at her. He was sitting and she was standing, so I wouldn’t be able to see her face if I turned my head, but I didn’t even look that way.
are you okay.
it’s okay.
No.
Despite the continuous questioning, no affirmation came out of Siwoo’s mouth, and Yoojung did not go easily despite the consistent attitude of short answers.
‘… What is this, really?’
Siu’s head was pounding. In fact, her shocking confession from earlier still lingers in my head.
It seemed that ‘I’m a virgin~’ was automatically played at the end of her words, and the word ‘virgin~’ seemed to be automatically added before each word.
There is no escaping the bondage of the maidens of hell.
As it turns out, isn’t her ‘I’m a virgin’ a kind of mental curse? I even think about it.
“hmm… . There is rice flour, too.”
“… … … .”
What’s even crazier is that each and every one of her proposals accurately snipes at his taste. Although he rejects all of them, Siwoo originally liked sweet things, and after being possessed, he relieves his stress with sweet food.
mixed grain powder… … . I almost nodded my head inadvertently at the appearance of my favorite drink. It’s been a while since I didn’t eat the prototype because it didn’t suit my taste, and it was annoying to prepare the ingredients and wash the dishes.
His ex-lover often made it for him, who was bothered by his picky taste. In the process, the memories that were created by roasting and frying came back to him from time to time and made him feel nostalgic.
And that, of course, was now.
“hang on!”
“No, wait.”
Noticing the reaction different from before, Yu-jeong blinked and ran away. It was clear that he had gone to pick it up.
I regret that I hesitated for a moment. Even the prototype doesn’t suit my taste, so there’s no way it won’t suit my taste just because someone else gave it a ride.
“Umm, where did you go?”
Yu-jeong was unpacking all her luggage to find rice flour. You can’t eat this
Siwoo rubbed his forehead while watching Yoojung take out all the items from his subspace pocket.
yes, what just eat it once
“busy?”
Then, Yoo Ji-min approached.
“Can you look at the sword?”
At the carefully asked question, Siu nodded and got up from his seat.
It was because he couldn’t miss the golden opportunity to build a good impression, and he seemed very eager to hold the sword tightly. Jimin took the lead as if he was excited.
It’s probably because there’s a place you’ve been looking at. He might have accepted it, but looking at the location, it seems that he was expecting quite a bit.
Satisfied with his generous choice, Siwoo tried to take a step back, but looked back.
… … It wasn’t a store of any kind, but I could see Yoo-jeong, who was still taking out things.
It’s a little sorry, but the relationship with Yoo Ji-min is more important. Siwoo thought that he should go and eat rice flour later.
After giving an autograph to Woojin, who is always in sight, he followed Jimin.

“how is it?”
“Good?”
Siu was genuinely impressed.
The swordsmanship, which spontaneously expressed the inspiration that came to his mind, had been made into his own before he knew it. I can’t say it’s perfect, but the overall framework is definitely in place. Having built the skeleton, the inside will soon be filled.
Yoo Ji-min laughed out loud, and Si-woo admired again. Indeed, not only the talent, but also the appearance was the leading role. It is a smile that goes well with her white skin and innocent appearance.
This one suited her much better than the provocative smile she showed at the selection test.
However, Siwoo’s interest was more in her swordsmanship than that.
He had asked for feedback in the first place, and his talent did not stop at simply creating swordsmanship.
“Try to start eating again.”
“huh.”
He said as snowflakes bloomed from her sword cutting through the air again.
“wait for a sec. stop it Don’t move.”
“It stopped.”
Siu took out the plum sword, took the same posture as her, and then opened the next herb ceremony briefly. After repeating it three times, he spoke again.
“The key to thinking about this herb is softness.”
Recalling his feelings at that time as much as possible, he continued.
The softness of moonlight falling on leaves, the movement of snowflakes fluttering in the wind, and the swaying reeds have the elasticity to eventually return to their original place.
Words and sentences that are difficult to understand bite the tail. He spoke incoherently about the influence of his inspiration and the fragmentary scenes he recalled at the time.
‘understanding… … Do you want to?’
Siwoo also knew that his speaking skills were terrible. Even when I said that, I wanted to know what this meant.
It was natural because he brought out the words without any processing for explanation. However, it was for the best.
He doesn’t even know the terminology for swordsmanship, but he doesn’t have the talent to compile works and even talk about dog rice cakes. If it’s the other way around, I don’t know.
I thought it would be better to say what I felt than to take out and add things for no reason.
Fortunately, Jimin listened earnestly, resting his chin on his fist.
Occasionally he nodded his head and blinked his eyes.
“With that in mind, I started eating like this.”
Jimin, who is trying to take and interpret the garbage-like combination of voices seriously, felt burdened and embarrassed for nothing, so he swung his sword.
Originally, he only tried to show appropriate words and demonstrations, but Siwoo, feeling embarrassed, swung his sword as best he could before he knew it.
“Then, like this here… … .”
“That’s good, but I prefer this… .”
“Being flexible means being tough at the same time. It’s more like strength or strength than weakness… .”
“Then, this isn’t focused on defense, but it’s about letting go and looking at the counterattack angle… .”
After that, discussions on swordsmanship continued like this and that. A serious discussion about the sword was a different experience for Siu as well.
Siwoo, who suddenly checked the time, ended the conversation, and Jimin bowed his head deeply and expressed his gratitude.
“thank you. really really.”
“no… It’s not quite like that.”
Siwoo, feeling extremely burdened, tried to get her up, but stayed still, not wanting to mislead her with an unnecessary touch.
With 10 minutes left until the end of the break, Siwoo went back to where he was resting. thud-! I spotted the platoon commander walking by.
“Oh, f*ck.”
“Uh, huh?”
Jimin looked at him with a sudden curse. Although the impression was a little rough, the kind and enthusiastic man was nowhere to be found.
A couple of my Chinese characters were drawn between my eyebrows, and my eyes were full of annoyance and annoyance.
Jimin looked at the platoon commander who was expected to be the cause.
It was a bit annoying, but the self-proclaimed senior who gave me tips on searching, the characteristics of monsters, and practical combat tips—at first, he told me to call him oppa—was walking like an asura.
And the two of them were burning hostility towards each other.
Wasn’t it trouble-free because of what happened on the first day of the unit’s arrival? Jimin tilted his head.
On the other hand, Siwoo seemed to know what that bastard was thinking as soon as he confirmed that the platoon commander’s eyes had turned.
‘You’re sick.’
The two men and women disappeared and came out of the shadowy place. In the original world, it’s a trivial situation that you wouldn’t care about, but here, most of them have one meaning in common.
That fact came to my mind later.
A rabid dog that had been deprived of the food he had worked so hard for arrived in front of him.
“The cadets have now left the squad without reporting to their superiors.”
I came here scattering my momentum as if I was going to hit it at any moment, but I opened my mouth with a growl. It would have been more comfortable if I had hit him, but he still verbally pressured me to see if there was a jjamba.
Siwoo frowned and scratched his brow.
Leaving the squad without reporting is half right and half wrong. Obviously, he gave Woojin his autograph. There was no way Woojin, who was quick-witted, would not have reported it.
saying that
“Face-to-face reporting is essential. Are cadets morons who don’t even know the basics?”
oh sh*t
Siu quickly lowered his head and covered his expression.
People can sometimes curse just by looking at their eyes and facial expressions, and Siwoo’s impression is that just by looking at it, ‘Aang? What are you trying to do?’ Now the expression… … Maybe it’s a pad lip?
And the fact that face-to-face reporting was impossible was because of the platoon commander. If I had been there in the first place, I wouldn’t have just watched the two fall apart.
I already guessed, but the platoon leader just didn’t like Si-woo and just needed an opportunity.
On the first day, he was beaten and embarrassed, and this time, his pride must have been scratched by the loss of the woman he was spitting on.
At that time, Yoo Ji-min, who had noticed, stepped out.
The first cause was himself, but the screams were only directed at Siwoo. It’s not as good as Jin Hyun-min, but she’s also on the righteous side, and above all, Si-woo helped her without any cost.
“Platoon commander, it’s my fault. Cadet Lee Si-woo asked me for a favor-”
“Where’s the boss interfering with what he’s saying!”
However, the platoon commander exploded when she interrupted the conversation.
He is a platoon leader whose brain is covered with scenes of Siwoo and Yoo Ji-min rolling on the dirt floor. Her remarks, which seemed to support him, were enough to cut off his rational line at any moment.
Jimin’s body stiffened.
That’s right, a platoon leader level in front units would be at least a mid- to upper-middle class hero, but it’s no wonder that the stiffness comes because he was squarely hit with that momentum from the front without filtering.
It was numb, but Siu was fine. Even with the Minotaur’s work, he was free. Unless he’s a dragon or a balrog, you can’t put him into a state abnormality with a roar.
The platoon commander started shouting in a fit of rage, and the mana wavered by emotion appeared in a haze.
Jimin was almost taken aback by the roar on his face. There could be a permanent drop in her abilities, so Siwoo grabbed her wrist and moved it to the back to cover her.
[The ‘purity’ of Ᏹ?@*?’s soul calms the ‘fear’ of the opponent it touches.]
[The ‘purity’ of Ᏹ?@*?’s soul calms the ‘convulsions’ of the opponent it touches.]
[An opponent touched by the ‘purity’ of Ᏹ?@*?’s soul gradually resists the abnormal status ‘panic’.]
It was meant to act as a shield against momentum, and to rid her of panic. The problem was, the platoon commander was still keeping his eyes open.
Kim Moon-ho, who was pouring out his anger like a volcano erupting, was silent. The pupils, which had been burning with jealousy and insults, became empty.
He looked expressionless for a moment, but Siwoo felt chills running down his spine.
Ding Ding Ding Ding, the alarm bell rings. The warning I felt when I was ambushed by the Blur and tested by the Hulk Doctor is speaking again.
Right Now.
dodge back
Immediately, Siwoo pushed Jimin and threw himself.
bang-!!
“It feels good. unlucky.”
The sword was embedded in the place where Siu had been. It was only for a moment, but Siwoo could see the sword fall from above.
A sword that fell so fast that you could barely see its shape.
The sword stuck in the floor was slowly pulled out and began to float around Kim Moon-ho. I couldn’t believe it when I saw the sword falling from the sky.
Shiu smiled dejectedly and said.
“Cheonilmun?”
“Are you surprised?”
Honestly, a lot.
I’m feeling f*cked up.
Platoon commanders are generally said to be mid- to upper-middle level heroes, but this is a case where the one in front of you goes beyond that general rule.
It is ambiguous to evaluate the heroes from the forces of the Five Bangs, ranging from the low class to the high class used in the world.
To take the Cheonilmun in front of me as an example, most of the abilities are extremely focused on individual competition. There are no common synergy skills, and you cannot receive buffs just because your senses change.
Optimized only for solo raids and interpersonal battles. Even though it activates a powerful effect in a situation where it has to be put into the battlefield alone.
And unfortunately, Siwoo was put in a situation where the powerful effect was activated.
I can’t tell you the truth of it. If you find out that you were scared, you will only die after being trampled on.
“I was surprised. I just found out that the prestigious Cheonilmun also produces garbage.”
“I lived only with my mouth. Say whatever you want.”
bang-!!
The sword that was floating in the air rushed at him. I was able to defend it thanks to my concentration on eyesight, but the difference in level was reduced with just that one collision.
The situation was different from when he fought the Minotaur. Contempt does not apply to humans, and there is no strategy.
However, Siwoo had a means to solve this situation in one shot.
“From the beginning, my mouth was free, you asshole. What are you, you shouldn’t talk, excommunicated scum.”
“How did you know I was excommunicated?”
“You can’t control your emotions, so the outcome of swinging a sword at a cadet is obvious. What are you asking?”
bang-!!
The sword surges.
Blood splattered and the arm holding the sword trembled, but Siu did not stop provoking.
“You bastard.”
“A 10-year-old is a scumbag who lusts after a child.”
“Nikosam.”
I induced his attack and evaded it by rolling on the floor. The wounds increased, but he focused only on taking out the means.
At that time, Yoo Ji-min belatedly came to his senses and tried to help Si-woo. I picked up my sword and lowered my posture, but Siu shook his head slightly.
Even though Kim Moon-ho seems to be paying all his attention to Si-woo, Jimin is always within range. If he died after attacking, Siwoo had to take care of the vacancy of the leading role.
It’s still hard to die, but that can’t happen.
Fortunately, Jimin understood Siu’s small nod. It was also Jimin-like, who communicated with a nod of the head when he was in Sanseong Jiju.
He gritted his teeth and trembled with anger, but for now, he seemed to be patient.
And the reason why he tried to kill Siwoo first, leaving the child who had been defenseless until now, is obvious.
“f*ck, you disgusting bastard. you really.”
“The water has already been spilled, and you spilled it.”
“I was shaken by myself because I was full of lust, and when I fell over, it’s someone else’s fault.”
“Shut up.”
Fortunately.
bang-!
thump-!
pop-!
After endless provocations and feasts of wounds, he succeeded in taking out a small glass bottle.
Just in time, Kim Moon-ho’s attack stopped.
Siwoo looked at him, wondering if this bastard was up to something else, but was soon relieved.
That arrogant man was looking down at him with one corner of his mouth raised. He told me to do something, with a face that said it would be useless.
I thought I was lucky because I was caught by some pervert… , yes, you should be this lucky.
Siwoo opened the lid leisurely, appreciating the arrogance of that bastard and his incomparable talent.
“Thank you, asshole.”
And let it out in a sigh.
The hot heat warmed her body.
“You cheeky bastard. Do you think you can be anything because the kids are praising you?”
Unlike the previous answer, which responded with a short reply, the sentence becomes longer. It’s like giving a villain an end, as if he’s trying to leave an old saying.
“I will teach you one of the teachings of Cheonilmun. Realize that the world is wide and you are a frog in a well.”
Siwoo would have burst into tears if he could.
That the world is wide, I know better than anyone else in this world. The world you know is not even half of this world.
do you know the future of this world. Can you imagine the future if you do not know that the Republic of Korea will be overthrown or the existence of the great devil preparing for resurrection at Mt. Baekdu?
Siwoo is just funny.
“Jung Jung-jiwa. It suits you very well. This is my sincere advice as a senior, so keep it in mind.”
Anyway, there are so many words. Thanks for the time, though.
No, actually, it didn’t matter if he didn’t waste time on his own.
Doppelganger’s tears are instantaneous. No matter what the copied ability is, its effect does not change. Therefore, no application time is required after use.
“It’s all about what I’ve experienced. Please express your deep gratitude to me for teaching my juniors a lesson through the experience and pain of excommunication. And the price of teaching and advice is—”
The reason why Siwoo listened silently to the bullsh*t was because an unexpected message appeared. The same goes for overheating the body.
Now that I’ve roughly checked the contents, there’s no need to listen to that bullsh*t.
I blew out the momentum.
“Your life instead——— huh?”
The air fell heavy.
Siwoo said with a giggle to Kim Moon-ho, who stood tall.
“Did you say Jung Jung-ji?”
A frog in the well? No one in the world can say that to me. Who dares to experience the front and back of the world you live in?
“I’ll give it back to you literally.”
Kim Moon-ho couldn’t answer anything.
What was reflected in his eyes was not a cadet, but a monster bigger than a mountain.
A hemp that disappeared over 100 years ago, taking away the arms and eyes of sword master Kim Cheol-jin.
The worst existence recorded in human history by destroying North Korea.
His name is the rest of destruction, and his origin is the master of the labyrinth in mythology.
The breath of the thunder star king spreads down here.
He just had to hold his breath to live.
