“They said she solved the monster wave.”

“Yes, I heard the news and rushed to see you.”

The monster wave that had been troubling soldiers for months has been resolved.

Surprisingly, the person who played a major role in eliminating the monster wave was a student sent from the academy, and the nobles expressed their admiration for the incredible adventurous spirit of Commander Thalia, who approved this work.

And news that the monster wave was over was also delivered to political enemies who were targeting Commander Thalia.

They were frowning in a situation where they should naturally be cheering.

“You have a strong heart. I have no choice but to admit this. “What a woman.”

I’m angry, but I have to admit what I have to admit.

Bringing in academy students to solve monster waves.

It was a solution they could not have imagined.

“I don’t know why they approved such an operation if it fails. Well, it was successful in the end.”

Sakalan spoke while looking at the man who looked uncomfortable.

“Even though I put pressure on her to get results quickly, she never wavered.”

I didn’t scold Commander Thalia because I didn’t know about the dangers of the monster wave in politics.

In order to shake her up, he deliberately put pressure on her to solve the monster wave.

By making things rush, they show loopholes.

“I’m so sick of it. “She is like a monster who cannot see through anything.”

It’s a bad relationship that’s been going on for a really long time.

“He was always ahead of me and took all the glory.”

She showed strength in a crisis.

In a crisis that seemed like it would be the end, he showed unbelievable abilities, survived and gained fame.

“Well, among the people I called this time was her daughter.”

The man nodded at Sakalan’s words.

“Are you saying she raised her children well?”

I couldn’t understand how a woman who must have been busy on the front lines could even care about her children’s education.

Even though you put all your effort into your child, he ends up doing absolutely pathetic things.

‘Fucking unlucky bitch…’

She is a woman who cannot help but curse.

Don’t you have all the luck on your own?

“I thought this was a definite opportunity. “Use… If this happens, wouldn’t it be right to revise the plan?”

Sakalan asked the man while showing a characteristic habit of squinting one eye.

He said, shaking his head.

“I have no intention of quitting like this. “Once you start, you have to see to the end.”

How long are we going to be patient?

I missed the opportunity to create a big weakness, but I had no intention of just sitting here and doing nothing.

“Would it have a big effect if I did it now?”

“Just because the monster wave is over doesn’t mean all the monsters are dead. Rather, this will be an opportunity to create more victims. Are you afraid? “Because you couldn’t hit her when she was at her weakest?”

“no. “I was sick and tired of waiting for the opportunity to arise.”

Sakalan actually smiled at the man’s provocation, asking if he was afraid of attacking Commander Thalia.

All of those who had supported so far collapsed without even being able to properly attack Commander Thalia.

There was also a guy who was so scared that he would only talk.

It would be better for Sakalan to commit the crime in such a passionate manner.

“If you keep what you promised, I will help you until the end.”

“Is there anything I can’t protect?”

“ha ha ha! “It feels refreshing to meet someone I can communicate with.”

When I was dealing with Commander Thalia, I felt stuffy and uncomfortable, as if my chest was clogged, but after holding hands with this man, I felt refreshed and just talking to him made me feel better.

In fact, it was strange that thinking about the privileges this man would provide her made her feel bad.

“You just have to follow the plan. “I don’t want anything more from you.”

“Of course it is possible to twist and hold an object. “Nothing goes where I don’t give permission.”

What the man and Sakalan were planning was to control the amount of supplies that should be provided to the soldiers.

If it had occurred while the monster wave was in full swing, it could have been a more lethal attack.

However, the monster wave was cleared faster than expected, so Sakalan had no choice but to quench his appetite with disappointment.

“It’s a shame to think about it again. “If we had started earlier, it would have been a fatal move.”

“Just because the monster wave is over doesn’t mean all threats are over. “The remaining monsters are probably causing trouble.”

They will also be in trouble if an unexpected event suddenly occurs while they are clearing up the aftermath of the monster wave.

“Let’s burn it so they can’t say anything.”

“No problem. “Please just leave it to me.”

When the supply of advanced equipment and disposable scrolls to fight monsters runs out, what kind of coping skills will Commander Thalia show?

All supplies entering the military were under his control.

If Sakalan decides not to provide goods, all merchants under him must follow his wishes.

“Please stop it. “I will believe it.”

However, since I couldn’t not give them something for no reason, I needed to come up with an excuse.

And the excuse was to explode a large, intact production plant.

Sakalan, who shook hands with the man, stood up.

I was very upset because I was going to lose a huge amount of money, but I decided to hold on to it because I thought about the profits I would gain in the future.

Furthermore, they planned to steal as much of the items inside the factory as possible before burning it down.

‘I wonder if I should go this far, but what can I do? I can’t go down the same path with that woman.’

He was the one who rejected all the hands that were extended to him.

In order to survive, you have to get rid of your enemies and take care of your side.

There was a need to make it clear how bitter and severe the cost of rejecting Sakalan was.

The thought of seeing the woman kneeling beneath him in regret sent a thrill of pleasure through his entire body.

＊ ＊ ＊

The monster wave is over.

Baine’s barrier succeeded in maintaining it until almost all the monsters inside were annihilated.

This would not have been possible if Fran had not restored his stamina from time to time.

Also, if Ariando and Shine had not acted quickly to clear out the monsters, the time Baine had to maintain the barrier would have been much longer.

It’s just that each of them did their job as more than two people, and because of that, they were able to finish the operation successfully.

The soldiers who had looked at the children with crooked eyes when they first arrived disappeared.

Now, it is full of people who want to talk to the children at least a word.

“How did you become so strong?”

“You said you would enlist next year, right? When you come in, won’t you come to our unit? “I can be really nice to you.”

There were also many people who wanted to take their children.

However, the children smiled moderately and declined the attention.

“Whoa, there’s so much attention that it’s quite a burden.”

“The treatment has changed so much that I’m having a hard time getting used to it.”

It was strange that I wasn’t interested after seeing such amazing skills.

I wanted to send the children back to the academy right away, but I didn’t know that the monster wave would end so quickly, so I couldn’t go back because the dispatch date didn’t end.

Instead, the military was doing its best to ensure that the children could rest comfortably.

Now, no one has complained about the comfort of the children.

The kids had done too much of what needed to be done.

“Vine.”

“yes?”

“Would you like to talk for a moment?”

“yes.”

The kids didn’t question my decision to just take Vine with them.

This is because we all know that you are having a hard time being caught between Baine and the Commander.

There was a need to restore the relationship between the Commander and Baine before the children returned to the academy.

However, the situation was becoming complicated as we learned that Baine preferred to keep his distance from the Commander.

“Did you call me because of your mother?”

“uh? “Oh, right.”

When Baine answered his question, he pouted his lips.

“It’s so strange.”

“You think it’s strange?”

“yes. “When I look at your actions, it seems like you have a duty to restore my relationship with my mother.”

I saw it very accurately.

To raise the SSS stat, Baine must reconcile with Commander Thalia and get along well.

If you notice, can’t you just make up and get along?

There was a lot I wanted to say, but I held it back.

“Isn’t that okay?”

“It’s too much. There is no reason for the boss to be like this between my mother and me. Anyone who sees me will think that the boss is my father. Or are you two really up to something?”

“Uh huh, that sounds like a big problem. “That doesn’t happen.”

My mom’s side got my daughter and me involved, and the daughter is getting her mom and me involved.

“Well, the boss was always like that, right? He saves Fran, solves Shine’s difficult situation, and accepts Ariando’s immature behavior. “What you do to me is the same as what you do to other children.”

It’s true that he saved Franc.

In fact, it also solved the difficult situation of Shine, who was on the verge of losing support from his family due to his growth stopping.

It is also true that I followed Ariando’s immature runaway from home and made it okay.

As I listed all the things I did one by one, I realized that I had done so many things.

“that’s right. Same goes for you. Am I a little too lazy? “I want you to be like the other kids who are doing well.”

I’ve become a big-headed guy who doesn’t even know what to do, but what can I do?

There is no other way to explain my situation than this.

“He pretends not to be like that and is sweet, but he acts harsh and worries about us every day. If you act like this, Fran will hate you later, right? “They say a man who is friendly to everyone is not a good husband.”

“Is there any way that she will like me as an old person in 10 years? Now I’m just saying it because I’m young. Don’t talk strangely. Are you really not going to talk to the commander?”

“Even if we talk, it will end up like last time. “It’s better to just not do it.”

Baine was still refusing to talk to Commander Thalia.

This is why I am delirious.

I thought we were almost there, but who would have thought that Vine would refuse to talk?

“You can’t live your whole life without talking to your mother.”

“Until now, we haven’t talked. Rather, it’s awkward because the conversation is different.”

“ah.”

Commander, what the hell… .

I dried my face and sighed deeply.

I can’t help but blame the commander for this part.

If he had shown even a little bit of his love for his children, things wouldn’t have ended up like this.

“Maybe your mother won’t think anything of it? “Isn’t the boss encouraging my mother for no reason?”

“That’s absolutely not true.”

The reason I came to visit Baine today was because the Commander urged me to do so.

In fact, Commander Thalia tried to visit Baine as soon as Operation Monster Wave was over.

This is because I have an impatient personality where I have to cut something when I pull out a knife.

But I desperately tried to stop it.

As Baine said, it seemed like conversation would lead to a fight.

Both people needed to meet when they were ready to talk.

You won’t be able to have an honest conversation with one person’s one-sided coercion.

“I know that Commander Thalia is awkward and difficult to talk to.”

Because of what happened with Baine, I had to confront the commander more than I expected.

Commander Thalia is definitely not a person who is good at dealing with people.

“But the reason I’m asking you to talk is because you’re misunderstanding something.”

“What are you doing wrong?”

“A misunderstanding that the Commander doesn’t care about you.”

“I know. “My mother cares about me.”

no.

Vine doesn’t know yet.

“No, he cares for you more than you can imagine. “But you took the wrong direction.”

“Wrong direction?”

“okay. “You want to be recognized by the commander, but the commander wants to protect you even now.”

“???”

That gap will result in the separation between mother and daughter.

“That’s why I need to tell you clearly. “What are your thoughts and what do you want to show in the future?”

Isn’t it called a different dream?

They are a mother and daughter who look at the same thing in the same situation but have different thoughts.

therefore.

“Please, let’s talk about it and solve it, because I think people watching will die of frustration.”

Before you regret it later when the situation arises.
