I Returned, But My Power is the Same

I looked back just in case. I wondered if Colonel Pencemer was doing the work behind the scenes.

But Colonel Pencemer was nowhere to be seen.

If it had been in the first place, there would be no way I would not have felt a presence.

So how the hell did it really happen?

🥺🥺🥺🥺

My previous attack, where there was still a wave, was still biting the mutant Bastins like wild beasts.

Fragmented mana pierced their torso here and there.

head explodes

flanks are split

limbs are cut off

Screams filled the room.

It was after the gate was broken right away.

The surroundings were full of the debris.

The cracked ground was restored to its original state as if it had been so.

No, it wasn't split in the first place.

The wave was so large that it was mistaken for a momentary split.

“Chur hoo hoo!”

“Chur hoo!”

“Chur hoo hoo hoo!”

Other than that, there were still some good Bastins, but at least it was less than a tenth of what it was just before.

This is a piece of cake.

Scratch!

Scratch!

With the doubts behind me, I grabbed the Bastangs.

As the gate was removed, the poison blizzard disappeared as well, so there was no more obstructing the view.

All I had to do was put my mind to swinging the sword.

[Critical Hit!]

And a reminder that pops up.

This in itself is not surprising.

Critical hits used to pop up often.

However… …

[Critical Hit!]

[Critical Hit!]

[Critical Hit!]

[Critical Hit!]

[Critical Hit!]

[Critical Hit!]

It's never popped up so often.

It just pops up when you attack. Not an exaggeration, really.

“Feng!”

“Cuckoo!”

The Bastangs died in seconds.

No matter where he attacked, the power of Geomgang was so great that he could not stand it.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

The last time he blew a sword wind again.

The previous situation was repeated again.

There was a wave so big that it looked like the ground was twisting, and it swept them away.

Even a reed in front of the wind will not bend that far.

“… … Hmm."

I scratched the back of my head and looked at the situation.

good.

Either way, it means you're stronger.

However, I keep questioning why I became stronger and what kind of power it is.

The sword and the body combine to create an explosive power.

that something new is reacting to him.

I don't know, but I'm sure it's because of the notification, but like I said, there's no way to know.

It was then that I heard a voice behind me.

“Major Choi!”

“Major Choi!”

"manager!"

Colonel Pencemer and his crew.

Fortunately, everyone was fine.

Still, I asked if I didn't know.

“Are you okay?”

“We are all fine. Are you okay?”

“Yes, I am fine.”

He's fine, but his whole body is full of scars.

The tired look is also evident.

If the gate removal had been delayed a little, it might have been four months.

Whoa, that's good.

As I breathe a sigh of relief, strange gazes are all at me.

“What is this… … .”

“It wasn’t enough to break the gate… … Did you catch all these bassins by yourself?”

"Wow… … .”

broken gate.

And the enormous corpses of Bastin all around me and around me.

If I saw myself, I would have reacted like that.

“Um, yes.”

I would like to explain how, but there is no other way.

because.

I don't know either.

So I was just telling you what was going on.

“I tried to open the road with a sword and remove the gate, but the gate was also removed.”

“The gate… … Is it a black wind?”

"Yes."

Troops widen their eyes.

It's a face you can't believe.

Only the Black Wing team members were nodding their heads, saying, ‘If our team leader is enough!’

“I saw it.”

Colonel Pencemer, who was silently listening, said a word.

“I didn't see the gate removed, but she did see the power of the last wind of the sword. With that power, even the gate would have been able to make it like that.”

“Huh, such a nonsensical thing.”

“Major Choi… … You are really stronger than you can imagine. I didn't get a medal for nothing."

“Are you going to get this again this time?”

The crew members then nod their heads and stick out their tongues.

The Black Wing team members pounded on his chest, saying that our team leader was like this.

Captain Yeong So-jin was looking at me and gave me a characteristic seal applause.

“Let’s get our seats in order first.”

"Yep!"

Variant Bastangs and poison blizzards that generate infinitely.

As the unexpected happened, there may be some other pitfalls lurking.

You have to confirm that.

“Nothing wrong!”

“There is nothing wrong with this one!”

Fortunately, no further problems occurred.

This is completely cleared up.

I was finally able to breathe.

“After a break, we start again! And Major Choi wants to talk to me for a moment.”

* * *

“Good job, Major Choi. Very well done.”

Colonel Pencemer said nothing.

All that was said was good.

But from my point of view, it has more meaning than any other words.

What could be better than what you hear from the commander who leads the unit.

I was just as proud as when I received the medal.

“Hey, I’m sorry. I should have seen Major Choi fight like that.”

“When I get back to the camp, I have to tell the other members of the unit about this. Everyone will be very surprised.”

“How could Major Choi have such power at his age? What's the secret?”

That evening, on the way to the camp.

The troops kept talking about what had happened earlier.

The Black Wing team members did particularly well.

He said that he would show off to everyone in the neighborhood when he returned to Korea, and acted almost as if he were worshiping me.

big.

Somehow my head hurts.

But there was something else that puzzled me the most.

"manager."

“Yes, deputy chief.”

“Aren’t you becoming a world star instead of a superstar?”

“… … no."

“No. You’ve already received a medal.”

“… … Ha, why are you even doing that to the deputy chief?”

“Why not? That’s true.”

Captain Young So-jin chuckles as he speaks.

“But you need to know one thing.”

"what?"

“I’m laughing, but I’m not joking.”

“Aww.”

“It’s true.”

To be honest, I can't say that Captain Young So-jin's words are completely wrong.

Literally because it's true.

But even so, to be called a world star is a bit too much.

Coughing for nothing, I said this time.

“But the deputy chief wasn’t easy either.”

"What?"

“You played an active part in this White Field Conquest.”

“Hey, what have I done?”

Captain Young So-jin immediately waved his hand.

For some reason, the cheeks are also slightly raised.

Are you right?

Just this.

“A lot. You're a captain, but you're catching monsters as much as the majors."

“That’s because the troops are doing well.”

“Even if the unit members do it well, the people who can’t do it can’t. And you mentioned medals, didn’t the deputy team leader also receive one?”

“Because I received it together with the members of the unit.”

“Oh, it’s meaningless because we got it together, right?”

“It’s not like that!”

“Then is it meaningful?”

“Everything, of course, makes sense! very!"

“So. So the deputy chief is the same as me.”

Captain Young So-jin shuts her mouth just then.

Whoa, it's finally out.

Of course, I didn't mean to get out of the world star or whatever.

This is also true.

Captain Young So-jin is also active in this White Field Conquest.

“Anyway, good luck in the future, Deputy Chief.”

Haha smiled and reached out to Captain Young So-jin.

Captain Young So-jin said, ‘Yes, the mean leader.’ and took his hand.

The sun was setting even more.

A campsite appears in the distance.

* * *

The increasing difficulty was evident just by looking at the period of subjugation.

Area 7 conquered all of them in a fortnight, but only half of Area 14 was conquered during the same period.

Even the size of the land was much smaller in Area 14.The situation was no different in other areas.

The same goes for the main unit.

The damage was also quite large.

In each district, the number of wounded was one after another, and the total number of 10,000 people fell to 7,000 in an instant.

Treatment would increase the number of operating personnel, but there were many who were not.

It will be completely out of the conquest.

“Colonel Pencemer is playing a big role.”

"thank you."

“The same goes for the crew members.”

“We will continue to do well.”

“Yes, yes.”

In that respect, our unit was greatly praised.

This is because the first 70 people were the same.

Of course there were injuries.

However, most of the potions were enough to drink well.

“Not many notices left! Go ahead!”

"Yes!"

He drove the momentum and even robbed District 14.

Numerous monsters and traps have attacked us, but even boss monsters appeared there, but we could not stop our troops.

Not to mention their skills, their morale has gone up tremendously.

Hunters become stronger as they fight.

It was the moment when I realized that.

"done! it's over."

“After all, it’s only been a month.”

After another full month, we finally made Area 14 ours.

After that, the 8th to 13th areas were cleaned up, leaving only six areas left.

Areas 15-20.

There are more ways to go than there are to go.

But that doesn't mean much.

If I did, I would have conquered Area 14 faster than Area 7.

“From Area 15, all but a few units move together with the main unit.”

The difficulty also changed the tactics drastically.

Instead of a small-scale battle for each unit, as Lieutenant General Alitef said, the entire unit moved together and a large-scale battle took place.

It wasn't just because of the difficulty.

“As a result of the investigation by the selection team, a large-scale monster unit is formed in Area 15. If you move separately, you will be crushed individually.”

The monsters also had a large scale.

When you are nervous, you can expect something.

It was the first time that such a large-scale battle was held since the operation to retake Jeju Island.

No, compared to the Jeju Island recapture operation, it was a small battle.

Because the number of people differs by several thousand people.

# Father: How are you?

# Me: Yes, I'm fine.

# Mother: Where are you injured?

# Me: You know, me. it doesn't hurt Do not worry.

Before the conquest of Area 15, I texted my family.

It would be nice to do it over the phone, but communication did not work well due to an abnormal air current.

# Seong Da-kyung: You have to be careful! got it?

# Me: Uh. I'll go back to normal.

He also texted Seong Da-kyung, reassuring worried family members.

Due to communication problems, the reply went away after a few minutes, but luckily we were able to finish the conversation.

By the way, it's already been a month and a half since we've been apart.

I was so frantic that I couldn't even think about Seong Da-kyung for a long time.

I wonder if this is what it means to say that when the body is distant, the mind also becomes distant... … I immediately shook my head.

There's no need to be so negative for nothing.

I just ended the call and sat down. Speaking of seating, there is only one sleeping bag in the tent.

This is the moment I miss the extra bed on the very first day.

But you only need to finish the conquest.

If you finish the conquest, you can sleep not only in an extra bed, but in the best bed in a 5-star hotel.

She closed her eyes as she pictured that day.

Because the conquest of Area 15 will start from tomorrow.
