episode_0406

“Susan.”

“···Why!”

“Do you think I’m mentally ill?”

“···What?”

Susan, who was holding a barbell that weighed more than her own weight, glared at me with bloodshot eyes.

ah.

I asked the wrong question.

“No. Do you think I have different values from other people?”

“···Are you making fun of me――?!”

Susan growls as if she wants to chew it.

No, I was just asking, right?

“I’m just curious.”

“You――! crazy···! You’re a sadist! Than La Quilo! Plus—! You idiot!!!”

“A. That’s not it.”

“A crazy person doesn’t know that he’s crazy.”

“So. What on earth were you thinking when you bullied Director Yang?”

Ali and Bessie, who were sitting on top of me, who was upside down, were giggling and muttering to each other.

It was only after everything was over that Director Yang Yang woke up, and of course he had no choice but to be reprimanded.

It was natural for them to give me this crazy attitude because I exercised my right to remain silent.

Every day is a cold war, and a high-ranking official from an enemy country comes to see the trainees.

Even if I somehow knew the contents, the trainee engineer left the instructor and left, so of course it was inevitable that things would turn upside down.

At that moment, the training director, who had been somewhere, was walking this way with another person.

He had a black wooden box in his hand, and in his other hand he had a wad of paper and a fancy fountain pen.

‘Who is it?’

“···Military police?”

“Wake up—!”

Bessie jumped up from above me and saluted so fiercely that the wind could be heard.

Ali, who was smirking, also stands up and salutes like a sword.

“Representative of apprentice engineer.”

“Yes.”

“The head of the military police came in person for the interrogation. Be sure to respond to the interrogation faithfully.”

“Okay.”

I had my head down so I could only see my feet, but that was a good thing.

Because I was a little disappointed.

You called the military police right away? And the head of the military police?

There were three intertwined circles drawn on the forearm, and three brace-shaped strings stretched underneath them to support them.

Three circles are a pedestal.

It is said that it takes about 10 years to obtain that one won.

In other words, it is a sign that he has served in the military for more than 30 years.

If you were caught by someone like that, you could go straight to jail, let alone get an article.

“···Is that him?”

“Yes.”

It was like looking at a monkey at a zoo.

“I will take you with me.”

“I will accompany you.”

The military police commander shakes his head.

“It’s okay if you do the interrogation alone. Because it’s convenient. And, you know what I brought, right?”

“Okay.”

The military police commander was a human being.

A person full of wrinkles not only on his face but also in his eyes.

He accepted the salutes from Ali and Bessie, made a cursory gesture, and then came straight in front of me.

“Representative of apprentice engineer, Gigi.”

I quickly stood up from my seat.

You should never be photographed by someone like that.

People who observe people as if they were animals usually have excellent observation skills.

“Don’t be too nervous. Hasn’t it been decided that you committed a crime now?”

The military police commander smiled and motioned with his chin as if asking me to follow him, and started walking ahead.

‘Come to your senses.’

As I walked along, I almost missed the weight and temperature of Bessie and Ali in my boat.

“Representative of apprentice engineer.”

“Yes.”

“Does the apprentice knight representative know what kind of person Callisto Luna is?”

Callisto Luna.

It was an unknown woman.

“It was my first time seeing him. I know the last name Luna, but I don’t know anyone named Callisto.”

“That elf is Diana’s agent.”

Diana’s agent?

The military police commander glanced at my face and smiled.

“There’s no way Drekkar, who had the upper hand, would build such a big wall for no reason, right? I should have chased them all down and killed them all, but I couldn’t defy Diana’s agent, so I built this wall.”

I’ve heard of it.

I’ve heard that, but… that woman was Diana’s agent?

“The Drekkar Alliance has long been frightened of the seas controlled by Diana’s agents. A-in is helpless in front of Hae-soo. And there was a dragon more powerful than that seawater.”

It was just as the military police commander said.

There is nothing they can do about Hae-soo.

This is impossible unless you have gunpowder weapons.

“But is it causing seawater in Yunaira? Preparing to invade North Korea? And, the decision-maker who could commit such a thing secretly crossed the Great Wall in search of an apprentice knight?”

Even though my head is cool, it is boiling hot.

The situation has gone astray.

“Observers are unconscious without a rat or a bird, and the trainee engineer who spoke with them is exercising his right to remain silent… Do you understand why I came here?”

The military police commander was still looking at me with emotionless eyes, as if he was reading a Korean language book.

“Yes.”

“In that case, I believe you will cooperate obediently. But…”

Sweet!

The military police commander opened the small wooden box he brought with him.

“Because I don’t know, will you understand?”

Inside the open wood box, my best friend, the Crystal of Truth, was sparkling in the moonlight.

······I guess there is no law that says you have to die.

How much time has passed?

“How can this be?”

Captain Hyeonbyeong smiled and shook his head.

My best friend leaves my hand and goes into the wooden box that the military police commander brought with him.

bye. You were my best friend.

“So, a person who receives a servant’s blessing becomes like a servant’s private army.”

The military police commander stood up from the tree stump with a bright smile.

I explained to him the inner workings of a servant.

How they give orders to their agents and blessed ones, what is the bewilderment of those who receive them and what is the sense of time of servants.

Of course, I added lies to my advantage.

“I think I finally understand why people who receive a servant’s blessing are exempt from military service.”

yes. So, is it the duty of a priest to serve in the military?

“······.”

Cognitive dissonance was intense.

This was a different sound.

“······Aren’t only priests exempt from military service?”

“Ah, a Horusian might not know. All those who have received the servant’s blessing are exempt.”

Are you exempt?

If that were the case, wouldn’t Jean and Isabelle have had to enlist in the first place?

Common sense tells us that there is no way for someone exempt from military service to become a professional soldier.

Moreover, this is a time when tensions between the two coalitions are at their peak.

‘Why on earth did those two enlist?’

“Apprentice engineer. Originally, he would have been sent to prison without asking, but at the request of the training director, he brought this expensive item.”

Benign intestine?

Just like the military police, I had just lost my temper after seeing what happened today.

“Thank you.”

“Thanks should go to the training director, not me.”

The military police commander was excited.

As if he was looking forward to returning.

···What did you get? Clearly something was received.

What did you get?

no way···.

“Yes. I would like to thank you.”

“Yes! Let’s go back now.”

You didn’t put it back in the trash that you threw away, right?

* * * * * *

Before I knew it, the world was colored in blue pastel shades.

“I tried using the Crystal of Truth, but there was nothing wrong with it. I don’t think there’s any need to leave records other than the source of information about seawater.”

The head of the training camp looked at me with indifferent yet sharp eyes, then turned his gaze back to the head of the military police.

“···Thank you for your help.”

“No, no, no. I’ll go in first, so work hard.”

It is difficult to tell whether it is a hand greeting or a wave.

Just like that, the head of the military police walked away with the gaze of the head of the training camp on his back, and soon the head of the training camp’s gaze fell on me.

“Representative of apprentice engineer.”

“Yes.”

“Go in and sleep.”

He looks dissatisfied with something.

Of course, I also had something to say to this person.

“Thank you. I have something I would like to suggest to the director of training.”

“What?”

“I also have great expertise in saltwater hunting. Since I know how to avoid and prevent it, I would like to catch seawater to use as teaching material.”

“I cannot allow it.”

I thought so.

But it had to be done.

“Those children have already died hundreds of times just to me. I know what those underprivileged children will go through on the battlefield.”

“There are things you can only know on the battlefield. In that respect, those children are worse than soldiers. You may be ignored and not respected because you don’t know anything.”

“I just hope that the children who join the military and my classmates can finish their military service safely.”

Director Yang Sung closed his mouth.

I guess so.

I know better about Unity Line.

It is a place that, twisted by the grudges of war and ruin, tries to open a meat restaurant and eat people raw, and its weakness of not being able to develop civilization is gradually being solved with magic tools.

Even if you are afraid of being stabbed, if there is a guarantee and compensation that you will survive, there are many people who can get stabbed.

I knew for sure what Precious Blood was because I had killed hundreds of people based on it.

“It cannot continue like this. Those who can be saved must be saved.”

“···You resemble a hundred-year knight.”

Lexi?

“···Hundred Year Knight?”

“Okay. He didn’t even care about military law. But it was always right. He always sacrificed himself for the soldiers.”

Why did such a person raise Yunaira today?

The nostalgic director’s unfocused eyes focused on me again.

“But you are not a centennial knight.”

···.

“For me, physical training has no meaning.”

“I have no idea. I’ll give you a pass to go out, so just do it on the weekend.”

ah. Well, if that’s the case.

This is also quite a bit of a concession.

“Thank you for your permission.”

“Also, I also accompany you.”

Director Yang’s eyes were filled with a sense of duty.

‘This person is trying to learn from me.’

I thought he was a great person.

There is nothing more difficult than studying when you are older.

“Yes.”

If so, you should let me know.

Because it’s easier to show gratitude through action rather than saying thank you.

* * * * * *

“How on earth…!”

“Aren’t you hiding something from me too? I also have a secret that I’m hiding.”

A second command was given.

Form a squad with a designated person and five other people, and take down the other squad.

Of course, it doesn’t apply to me.

“Haa···.”

My heart is so anxious.

So much.

To begin with, the apprentice engineer is physically perfect.

It was the spirit that had to be armed.

Breaking your spirit is more difficult than anything else.

If you were to draw the same score from all armies, it would be rolled at the training camp.

To perfect the mind, not the body.

The mind is different from the body.

Once you make a large bowl, it almost never gets smaller.

From now on, I had to cut down the apprentice knights to a level that would shatter their spirit.

“What on earth are you doing? Same number? Does training seem like a joke?”

“Yes?”

The power of Dantalian bloomed.

“For some unavoidable reason, you have again encountered an enemy who knows your methods. Do you respond to it the same way as before? It worked before, so it will work this time, so what do you think? Do you not think that the other person will learn?”

“···No.”

“Yes. There are no idiots on the battlefield who cannot think. This is a clear misjudgment. Everyone on the front line is risking their lives. If you leave like that, someone will die. Even if you don’t die, keep in mind that someone’s precious daughter or son could die because of your mannerisms.”

Isabel is staring at me with wide eyes.

Don’t look at me like that.

Because it’s true.

No matter how strong you are, if you get stabbed and hit, you die.

That’s the same for me too.

“···Yes.”

“If you understand, go down and get some physical training. You have no right to say anything to Jean.”

How many apprentice knights did he swear at?

More than half of them were reluctant or showed an uncooperative attitude towards me, who had turned me into a child.

Who wouldn’t be angry if they were told to do the right thing by their training camp classmates in the first place?

Anyone pays.

But there were people who understood that.

The results will appear on the Rhine. I couldn’t carry everyone.

Because I am not a siren looking down from the sky.

In that case, I must definitely protect those who have come into my arms.

Sherry, Coober, Amilla, Susan, Jean, Isabelle, Laila and Kailish.

They came into my arms.

However, Isabelle was unique.

He couldn’t understand the situation and gave me a strange look.

“···Are you upset because you lost to me?”

‘······Why can’t I read the mood?’

I’ve felt it since I was teasing Laquilo, but I’m really bad at reading the mood compared to other people.

“It’s not like that.”

Isabelle seemed to need a little more grinding.

This rat-like training had pushed many of the apprentice knights, except Isabel, to their limits.

Rather than splitting sides, I was spitting out harsh words and sending them all down the mountain.

Food to eat yourself.

Food that needs to be sent down and evaluated.

The tension that I couldn’t let go for days just to move 0.2 to 0.4 seconds faster.

My viciousness is not allowing me to pick up deer droppings and eat them.

Everything came as a stress to the trainee drivers.

And then… the salt shortage started to come.

I didn’t know that when I was on Earth, I was in trouble because I ate salty food.

What happens when a person lacks salt?

The body reacts really sensitively to salt.

I try my best not to excrete it, but if I start to sweat, I’m in trouble.

‘It’s even worse in the blazingly hot South.’

Your blood pressure drops, and you start to become dehydrated even if you drink water.

A person begins to dry out, and muscles cannot function properly and cramp.

The body begins to make frantic demands on the brain.

─Eat salt.

It may be absurd, but it really is your body that commands you.

It’s as if you’re thirsty, and your brain is telling you to get salt wherever you can.

Soon, my eyes start to go to things that appear to have no salt at all.

But where the gaze goes, there is salt.

Even humans on Earth, who are the foundation of this world in the first place, obtain 90% of their salt from the ground.

The same goes for animals.

Living organisms know where salt is located in their genes based on knowledge accumulated over hundreds of millions of years.

For example, meat eating or fratricide.

If you eat human blood, it is blinding.

However, those who lack salt sometimes kill people and drink their blood.

Even if you don’t know it, your body knows it.

That there is salt in the blood.

How to obtain salt and water was what I was taught.

If you eat meat, you don’t have to worry about salt, but thanks to Hosott’s developed sense of smell, the traces are spread far and wide.

Because of this, there are times when I am forced to become a vegetarian.

How to get rock salt, salt hidden in the bones or horns of animals discarded after predation.

Salt-rich animal organ parts and insects.

How to choose salt-rich rock salt, dissolve it in water, and drink it.

Burning wood to obtain wood salt, boiling rotten wood to brew it, etc.

If there is one that has dozed off, it may try to eat the person as its instinct tells it to do.

─For example, like now.

When I searched for feelings of being weighed down by stress, this is what happened.

“Get out of here you bastard!!!”

Hume was licking Susan’s cleavage.

There are animals like that.

It is said that thousands of butterflies sit on the elephant’s back and lick the salt in order to eat the salt from the elephant’s skin.

‘So Susan is the elephant and Hume is the butterfly?’

Susan definitely looks like an elephant.

Now that I’ve tasted it, I might reveal it soon.

There was a need to stop it before that happened.

“Hume. You’re done, you little beast. Should I go down and be castrated?”

Hume glared at me, widened his eyes, and showed his fangs.

It has truly become a beast.

“Susan. Are you hurt anywhere?”

“I don’t know! Do something with that bastard!”

It looks like there are no injuries.

Pop!

I fired a crossbow at Susan.

“Ah!”

Susan looked at me with blank eyes, as if she had been betrayed.

“Go down. Just wait a moment.”

Susan’s top is torn.

I was covering my breasts, but I couldn’t do that all the way down.

Moreover, Hume was so excited that he even pulled out his fingernails.

He took off his outer garment and wrapped it around his hands.

How to fight against sharp objects with outerwear.

“Hume, let’s get it right first.”
