I Returned, But My Power is the Same

A wave reminiscent of a flame and wrapped around your hand.

It was definitely Mana.

“Huh.”

Involuntarily I let out a groan from my mouth.

Pulling out mana

“Wait, did you succeed?”

“Wow… how did you already…”

“Unbelievable, really…”

The trainees are buzzing.

There were even people who came in front of me to see if they couldn't believe it.

So were the instructors.

He looks at me and the mana I've created, as if in absurdity.

What the hell happened?

Somewhat predictable.

Bone characteristics.

And various other buffs and titles.

Maybe it's their influence.

But nonetheless.

It can't be this fast.

At that moment, Lieutenant Young So-jin's eyes met.

She was looking at me and clapping her seals.

‘Congratulations, Dojin-ah!’

‘Thank you, Vice-Captain.’

Yes, Lieutenant Young Sojin.

There was the influence of Lieutenant Young So-jin.

I definitely improved a lot while taking private tutoring.

As well as being able to focus mana in one place.

I'll really have to pay it back later.

The senior instructor came over with a smile.

“I didn’t know that there would be trainees who succeeded during the training period. Amazing.”

"Hahaha. I was surprised too.”

It really is.

I was shocked and still my heart was pounding.

“Can you try again?”

"Yep."

In the middle of digging an eye, the flame extinguished without even a mouse or a bird.

He rotated mana in his body again.

And I concentrated that mana on my palm as before.

Kwak!

In the next moment, mana rose again on her palm.

burning brighter than before.

I know.

Yes, the density is blurry and the size is small.

But it's meaningful that you did it anyway.

Finally, the senior instructor explains the reason.

“If you apply it, you can put it on a weapon like an enchantment. try harder I think you can do it.”

And as long as you have enough concentration and size, you can develop them as much as you want.

After that, it was good.

He clenched his fists tightly.

next day.

After the theoretical training was completed the previous day, the practical training began in earnest.

“You all remember what we did on the first day? I formed a squad and took turns leading the squad one by one. I will do it again from now on.”

The composition of the squad went as it was on the first day.

I was in squad one.

“Nice to meet you, guys.”

Lieutenant Young So-jin will be the instructor of our squad.

From tutors to instructors.

What windfall is this?

“Let’s do well, Dojin-ah.”

"Yep!"

I said goodbye and stood right there.

It was in front of the vehicle.

“The situation within the jurisdiction. Each squad should move quickly.”

As soon as the senior instructor runs out of words, the trainees rush into the vehicle.

I already had a seat.

First of all, each instructor in charge gave a demonstration.

“Move quickly!”A picture I saw every day in the army.

But at that time, he didn't pay attention to every single illness.

If you go, go, if you shoot, shoot, if you go, cut.

I just followed orders.

So now, all the lines and actions of Second Lieutenant Young So-jin are unfamiliar.

Whoa.

no rush to think

You just have to do what you learned in theory, and what Lieutenant Young So-jin tells you from now on.

“We divide into three groups and figure out the locations of the monsters first.”

"Yes!"

“And it is important to catch, but more importantly not to get hurt. Keep that in mind.”

In a certain dungeon I ran and ran and arrived.

Upon entering, Lieutenant Young So-jin gives instructions to each trainee.

Then, until I emphasized the part about safety.

This is a scene I've seen countless times, but the thought that I have to do it gives me a headache.

Also, the practice is different.

"attack!"

As soon as the locations of the monsters were identified, they immediately attacked.

On the first day, it was Junggu Heating because they couldn't even figure out where to start, let alone figuring out where to hit, but now it's different.

Each moves in unison.

“Part 1 covers Group 2!”

"Yes!"

“Group 3 is support shooting!”

Not only stabbing and cutting with a sword, but also escorting and supporting fire.

It was perfect.

What would have happened if the trainee, not Lieutenant Young So-jin, gave instructions?

nothing to see

It must have been a mess like the first day.

But there is still plenty of time.

You just have to learn and practice one by one.

“Next, trainee Choi Do-jin takes on the role of the squad leader.”

"Yes!"

late afternoon.

Finally, I also got the role of squad leader.

The sun was setting, but my heart was burning more than ever.

“Divided into four groups, groups 1-3 remove gates and monsters, and group 4 waits in the rear.”

You don't need to wait.

The more you do it all at once, the faster you finish it.

However, conducting is not just about finishing quickly.

citizen safety.

Additional gates in case.

You also have to take care of your surroundings.

“Attack from this side!”

"Yes!"

“Group 2 is coming back sideways!”

"Yes!"

The trainees move according to my instructions.

I had this experience before returning.

Because I was the squad leader.

But at that time, it was only a guide at best.

But now we fight.

Not just one or two monsters, but the whole gate.

The feeling is new.

and...

Whoops!

It's fun to watch the gates collapse under my instructions.

It's a different pleasure from when stats or skills go up.

I want to continue to feel this pleasure in the future.

***

There is so much to learn and it is overflowing.

Mana and squad tactics were, of course, rituals, spirit, shooting, first aid, basic military, Dokdo, and so on.

Of course, I learned a lot when I was a soldier.

But then and now is different.

Mana alone is at most seniority in the unit, but here we are training to take it out of the body altogether.

Still, it was mostly doable.

Especially since the shooting has been polished so much before returning.

The problem was then.

Platoon tactical training.

major tactical training.

command guidance.

and forward command training.

His hair was so white that he was about to explode.

So the sound came out again.

“How did the deputy commander learn all this?”

“If you do, it’s a silver soybean. And Dojin, you have a short learning period. Rather, it’s great to be able to do this.”

“Hmm.”

“First, let’s just take the course, because we can go to the Lee Soo-man unit and keep learning.”

"all right."

“Or Do Jin-ah.”

Lieutenant Young So-jin said as if he had remembered something.

“Would you like to go to the army and take it?”

“What are you talking about?”

“My tutoring.”

“Huh, no. Even here, even at the base, the deputy platoon commander's time cannot be taken away.”

"Nope. I'm fine."

Lieutenant Young So-jin smiles brightly.

“Are you having fun? I thought I'd let you know."

“Great...”

"how? Would you like to take it?”

Of course, you should get it.

As I said before, even if I bow down and bow down, I have to ask for a favor.

He nodded his head sharply.

“Yeah… if you would…”

"okay. I'll let you know when I have time."

"thank you...!"

I made a promise at this moment.

Even if I don't know about other people, I promise to be loyal to Lieutenant Young So-jin for the rest of my life no matter what happens.

After that, he continued his education.

8 weeks already.

Except for going out a few times in the middle, I've only been here the whole time.

Because of that, Seong Da-kyung had to part with life for a while.

# Dakyung: I miss you... I miss you... I miss you...

# Me: Be patient. Now it's all over.

# Dakyung: Hee ... I can't stand it ㅠㅠ

Text or phone calls were the only means of meeting.

Oh, and there's also a video call.

# Dakyung: Show me your face!!!

# Me: I'm having a bit of trouble right now.

# Dakyung: Huh? Are you 19? Are you still training?

# Me: No, I'm taking tutoring.

# Dakyung: Tutoring?

Ah.

I didn't say anything to Seong Da-kyung.

# Me: The deputy platoon leader personally informs me. I'm getting too hard

# Dakyung: Deputy platoon leader?

# Me: Uh.

# Dakyung: ...it's annoying.

# Me: You're the deputy platoon leader. different from other women.

# Dakyung: ...

# Me: Well, I'm just talking about education. And it's funny to say that to the deputy platoon leader in the first place.

# Dakyung: ...ha.

# Me: Why?

# Dakyung: ...No.

have.

there is something

I felt that the two of them were like that because of their arms crossed, but there is definitely something there.

Just as I was about to ask, another text message came to Seong Da-kyung.

# Dakyung: You are kind. Do private tutoring. There really is no one like our deputy commander. Very angelic, angel. A great angel who will never come back to the world again. I'm thrilled, really.

uh, what?

Did I just misunderstand?

Yes, and even if Seong Da-kyung is talking about a woman, there is no reason for the deputy commander to do that.

After all, he's like an angel.

# Me: Right? There is no one like the deputy commander.

# Dakyung: ...

# Me: Huh? Why else?

# Dakyung: No. done. let's have another baby

I'm sorry, but I think we'll have to talk about other things later.

Because the break time is over.

# Me: I'm done with my break. Do it later.# Dakyung: ...

# I'm going.

At the end, ... must have been lost while texting for a while, maybe.

Shrugging his shoulders, he faced Lieutenant Young So-jin again.

long education.

Finally, the end was coming.

It had been 11 weeks since I enlisted.

“I will do a final check.”

As it was a final inspection, it was not grandiose.

I was just repeating what I had done so far.

“Okay, that’s how we go.”

It was something we did every day except for theory training for 11 weeks, so everyone did well.

I was particularly praised.

“The trainee Dojin Choi is very good.”

It was natural.

This is because, not to mention shooting, there are a lot of things that have been done about physical training and combat ability.

However, so was his leadership ability.

“Aren’t you also very good at commanding?”

Leadership ability has nothing to do with what you have raised in the past.

It's only coming out of my head.

But even there, I'm sure you'll hear it's great.

The head turns automatically.

To the person who made me this way.

‘Thanks to the deputy commander!’

'Nope. what i Dojin, you worked hard.’

He did the same when he showed mana, and this time he throws the ball at me.

right.

I worked really hard too.

I kept thinking and thinking until just before I went to bed.

But would it have been possible if there was no one by my side to point out and inform me one by one?

never.

It would never have been possible.

So Lieutenant Young So-jin is the number one contributor.

for me to become like this

‘I will definitely repay this favor. Just say anything!’

‘Anything?’

'Yes.'

'Then I'll have to think about it.'

The moment we had been waiting for while we were talking with each other had finally come.

time to end education.

“The trainees worked really hard during that time.”

"thank you!"

“I have nothing to be thankful for. Be thankful for yourself. To all of you who have been running for a long time.”

"no! Thanks to the instructors too!”

It's not just polite to say thank you.

I am also very grateful to the teachers.

He was well informed and well informed, but even if he made a mistake, he calmly corrected the mistake rather than scolding him.

Compared to a human like Lieutenant Kwak Sang-gi, he is truly a good man.

Oh, and by the way, Lieutenant Kwak Sang-gi is also rising to the rank of captain soon.

Although he has a character like a fucking asshole, he is definitely a guy with skills.

He sees already he rises to Captain.

He's rather happy for me.

As a company commander rather than a platoon commander, he will probably have fewer encounters.

While I was thinking about something else, the car arrived.

It wasn't a dungeon, it was a vehicle going to the unit.

with our troops.

“Hey, Choi Do-jin! It was a lot of hard work.”

"nice! Congratulations."

As soon as I returned to the unit, I received congratulations from the unit members.

He passed the promotion test and already got it, but he is a bit embarrassed to take it again.

But I think it means a bit more this time.

Did you finish all 11 weeks of training?

Rather, it is because from now on, he will become an official second lieutenant.

salary.

Classes.

BOQ.

and to the position.

With that formal envoy that changes everything.

That is, it is commissioned.
