I Returned, But My Power is the Same

Chapter 51

Chapter 51 trot

“No, this is what it is…”

“Go first.”

Seong Da-kyung grabs my arm.

I swallowed my saliva and walked out of the hall.

Gradually the light is getting brighter.

Then I came into the aisle.

I immediately apologized.

“I’m sorry, Dakyung-san…”

“it’s okay. It was like reaching out to go with me.”

“It is, but…”

The last time I touched my thigh on the bus, I thought I could somehow do it.

But now it’s different.

It’s because you’re touching a very sensitive area.

“sorry···”

Seong Da-kyung said as she looked at me repeatedly apologizing.

“Suddenly I remember those words.”

“What do you mean…?”

“I hope you are not sorry.”

“Uh… that…”

“Yes, that’s what Dojin-san told me.”

“…”

Seong Da-kyung pulls me back again.

“If I leave that hall alone for nothing, something might happen. Get out of here.”

Whoa.

okay.

let’s get out

I walked out the aisle upside down with Seong Da-kyung.

Officers will be seen soon.

“what? Why did you come back?”

“There is a hall inside, but it is dark.”

“Isn’t there some equipment for the blackout?”

“It doesn’t matter if the flow of mana is blocked or not.”

“okay? I’ll have to deal with that one separately. I’m taking a break. There is nowhere else to go.”

“all right.”

Somehow, I took a break.

Seong Da-kyung takes off his battle helmet and removes a pin from the side of his bangs.

It’s a bit tangled with sweat.

However, there is no separate mirror and the head is pressed, so it doesn’t seem to work well.

I keep plugging and unplugging and repeating.

“Mr. Dojin.”

“Yes.”

“Can I put this in here?”

Seong Da-kyung holds her bangs with one hand, and he hands me a pin.

what can’t

If you bow in your heart right now, you can also bow.

I was handed the pin right away.

And I put the pin where Seong Da-kyung grabbed it.

“That’s Okay.”

“thank you.”

“no.”

a non-trivial conversation.

not a big deal.

But the seat is a bit uncomfortable because of work.

“I···”

I feel like I should talk again, so I open his mouth, but Seong Da-kyung suddenly stares at me.

“Mr. Dojin.”

“Yes.”“Are you still sorry about what happened earlier?”

“Last time, I felt it at the hospital… Do you have any kind of skill to see inside your heart?”

“It’s just like in the hospital. It’s all written on my face.”

“What is written this time…?”

“Even if it wasn’t intentional, I’m so sorry for touching sensitive areas anyway. I’m so sorry I’m going crazy That’s right.”

“It looks like you have a real heart-breaking skill…”

“Just don’t worry about it.”

Seong Da-kyung said with a smile.

“And in a situation where it suddenly goes black and the flow of mana is cut off, you might run away without me knowing.

“…”

“The one who caught me on the bus last time, the one who blocked the rock, and the one I took care of today, I get a lot of help from Dojin.”

“Ah, but today…”

“Anyway, you know? You don’t have to worry about it.”

Seong Da-kyung said so and left.

Looks like he’s going to the bathroom.

know.

I mean, you just said that to make me feel comfortable.

‘Thank you.’

“Everyone worked hard. I won’t be going to the trap dungeon for a while.”

17 o’clock.

The removal of the trap dungeon, which has been going on for several days since last week, has been completed.

It was a difficult journey for me in many ways… Anyway, I think it ended well.

As a result, nothing happens.

“The main weapon training will be held from tomorrow, so please know that.”

“Yes!”

“Okay, I want you to return to the dormitory.”

The main weapon training is one of the easiest of the many trainings.

This is because there is no need to move anywhere or catch monsters, literally just wield the main weapon.

So, as soon as the seniors came up to the dormitory, they talked about going this week easily.

But soon the news like a blue sky came flying in.

“Guys, this Friday, our squad will be in the 5th squad.”

5 waiting.

The abbreviation of the 5-minute combat standby unit.

It is one of the things that soldiers avoid the most, not to mention changing clothes, and not being able to even wash themselves at will.

It suddenly flew into our squad.

Okay, now I remember.

“What do you mean by that…?”

“Did you know that this 5th standby is operated by squads, not platoons? Originally, the 2nd platoon and 1st squad were supposed to join, but the deputy platoon leader suddenly took a sick leave.”

“…”

A fact that everyone knows at this moment, but no one says.

Of course, that’s the part that makes sense.

But the vacancy was filled by our squad…

‘You messed up with our deputy platoon leader, huh?’

what to do

After all, the Hunter army is the army.

“Can you do it?”

“Yes!”

“Aren’t voices and expressions so different from each other?”

They all have dark faces.

like a thick cloud of darkness.

But, as I remember, this 5th stand-by remains a very interesting memory for the squad members.

The reason was coming out of Lieutenant Young So-jin’s mouth.

“Ah, this 5th wait will be done with the other company squad just like when we cleared the trap dungeon. I think it’s necessary to try to match this and that because of the battalion tactics training.”

“Where would you like to be together…?”

“It’s 3rd Company, 1st Platoon, 1st Squad. Somehow, after the trap dungeon, we got together again.”

“Huh!”

“What is it, everyone’s expressions suddenly change?”

“Hahaha! no!”

I say no, but it has to be.

This is because it means that you will continue to hang out with the female hunters for a week during the 5th waiting period.

even···

“The building will be shared. It was already built because it was called the 5th dormitory in the company headquarters.”

Although the building is the same, the dormitory is of course different, but that alone has a lot of meaning for the soldiers.

Originally, the building was completely different, so unless it is a special event, you can hardly see it.

“all right!”

“Know your mission in advance.”

“Yes!”

“It was the first time I knew today that your voice was this loud.”

Lieutenant Young So-jin shakes her head as if she can’t be defeated.

Of course, everyone will take it seriously once it starts.

However, when I am not on patrol or on patrol, I will try to get along with the female hunters somehow while I am waiting in the dormitory.

The squad leader raised his hand for a moment and asked.

“But what about Kim Oh-cheol? I know he’s coming back on Thursday from the Military Training College.”

“You will participate normally. The company commander also instructed that.”

“Ah, is that so? all right.”

“Then everyone rest.”

“Yes! Loyalty!”

“Loyalty.”

Even after Lieutenant Young So-jin left, the dormitory was in full swing.

From what to play with the female hunters, to inevitably trying to seduce one of them, there were all kinds of strange things going on.

Then, the story of Kim Oh-cheol came up again.

“I’m more curious about whether Kim Oh-cheol will play the 5th squad or not.”

“Like what?”

“Additional punishment. It is said that he is returning from military training and receiving it.”

“Oh, that’s right. What additional punishment do you want to receive?”

“Isn’t the pay cut or something like that?”

“Only executives get pay cuts.”

“Then are you sober?”

“If you look at the fact that you have to participate in the 5th waiting period, you have to get probation before you can get it. And in the first place, his demeanor is too weak.”

“So what do you think of Sgt. Lee Dae-yong?”

“I think I’ll take it a little harder.”

“A little louder?”

“Is it a loss of promotion? for a year.”

“Isn’t a year too long?”

“Considering what he did, a year is rather short. The deputy platoon commander and Dojini were even trapped in a double dungeon because of the random explosion.”

“It is, though.”

“I don’t know, the results will come soon. I’m coming back this Thursday.”

I am very curious too.

What kind of additional punishment will Oh-cheol Kim receive?

***

The next day, Tuesday.

The main weapon training was held yesterday as predicted.

As soon as the day started, the platoon members gathered at the central training ground with swords.

“Each one learns and trains swordsmanship.”

“Yes!”

Originally, they had separate battles or virtual battles using simulations, but today they seem to only be doing swordsmanship.

It’s convenient for soldiers.

Because I only had to swing the sword as I learned.

‘Now that I have acquired the skill of the iron wall, I have to get one for swordsmanship as well.’

He had already acquired a skill called the standard of swordsmanship.

A grade of B alone.

But, I want to be more greedy.

‘It’s not enough to be this strong. You have to be stronger for a while. To achieve what I want.’

I got out of my thoughts and swung my sword in earnest.

Basic public swordsmanship.

It is not familiar to the body, so it is possible to reproduce every angle of each movement.

Of course.It’s because we’ve been doing it every day from before the return to the time after the return.

👌👌👌👌

The sword cuts through the air without rest.

Sweat drips down his forehead.

The hand holding the sword trembled slightly.

But I kept swinging my sword.

‘Before the regression, I couldn’t because I wanted to do it, but it’s different now, isn’t it?’

Bone characteristics.

muscle strengthening skills.

In addition, numerous hidden pieces completely changed my body.

The sweat you shed like this is no longer in vain.

“I will finish training in 15 minutes.”

“Yes!”

So the day went by.

My body was more tired than when I went into a dungeon and caught monsters.

He swung his sword like crazy.

There were, of course, achievements.

[Swordsmanship standard skill proficiency increases!]

The mastery of the standard skill of swordsmanship has risen several times.

The rate of climb was a bit slow because of the rank, but where did it rise?

It was just that time to finish the training with satisfaction.

Tiling!

[The will to swordsmanship is very high.][The blessing for learning swordsmanship for a long period of time is granted.]

He tilted his head when he saw the first notice, and then immediately nodded when he saw the second.

10 years before the return.

The crab wielding the sword for a long time was combined with something like the strength of the bone to create a blessing.

‘What kind of blessing are you giving?’

I swallowed a gulp and focused on the next reminder.

and opened his mouth wide.

[Permanent buff “Infinite Swordsmanship” is applied.][The increase in skill proficiency related to swordsmanship is increased.]

In a nutshell, it means that even if you practice swordsmanship in the same way, your proficiency will increase even if you only have this buff.

Plus, it’s permanent.

After a while, I picked up the sword again.

And I personally experienced the effect of the Infinite Swordsmanship buff.

The results were huge.

[Swordsmanship standard skill proficiency increases!][Swordsmanship standard skill proficiency increases!][Swordsmanship standard skill proficiency increases!][The mastery of the standard skill of swordsmanship increases!][Swordsmanship standard skill proficiency increases!]

Until recently, it was fortunate that only one notification popped up, but now there are as many as five.

‘···!’

I couldn’t hide my excitement for a while.

***

That evening.

While thinking about the Infinite Swordsmanship buff and humming Lulullala, someone suddenly opened the door of the dormitory and entered.

“Hey hey, guys! Breaking news, breaking news!”

was the squad leader.

I’m not a person who usually makes a fuss, and there’s even the word breaking news behind me, so the squad members’ attention was focused at once.

“What is going on?”

“Additional punishment for Kim Oh-cheol has been issued!”

“Oh, how are you?”
