“So, are you saying that is the blessing of a servant who is nowhere to be found?”

    “Yes.”

    After finishing my explanation to Isabel, I waved my hand at Anne, who was looking at me from a distance.

    “Come and see.”

    It was a necessary verification.

    Whether Isabel can contact Anne or not.

    Anne, who was starting to approach Anne, and Isabelle, who was looking at Anne with anxiety, looked similar to each other.

    “There is something I need to check.”

    “What?”

    “Would you please shake hands with each other?”

    The two women furrowed their brows and glared at me.

    I’m not asking you to apologize.

    “Why?”

    “You don’t just do it. Please activate the power and shake Anne’s hand so that she doesn’t touch anything.”

    Isabelle and Anne look at me strangely.

    However, Isabel reluctantly reached out her hand first at my urging, and Anne slowly took Isabelle’s hand.

    Soon, Anne looks at me in astonishment.

    ‘Gotcha.’

    “Thank you for your cooperation.”

    “···No.”

    I didn’t want to respond to the gaze demanding an explanation.

    I’ll just get the main point out and pass it on in a blur.

    “Isabel. You will have to climb over the wall into the sand tomorrow or tomorrow.”

    “Yes? Wow, why is the colon wall suddenly so big?”

    “I plan to reveal that in a place where everyone can hear. First of all, I want you to follow me over the wall.”

    “···Me?”

    “Yes. Just in case, we need someone with tracking and stealth skills like you.”

    “Of course, I can help you if you need it!”

    He seemed to be happy that I recognized him, but he looked embarrassed.

    “I hope you keep things about Anne a secret as well.”

    “Yes. I will.”

    “Thank you.” “Thank you.”

    Anne’s head bowed awkwardly towards Isabelle, and then straight towards me.

    “I’ll just go. Because it’s meal time soon.”

    ‘How many times have I seen you pick up and eat food in the kitchen?’

    It seemed that Anne was uncomfortable with Isabel.

    “Yes. Please take a look.”

    “I’ll stop by again later~.”

    Here, like other counties, skipping meals is not tolerated.

    Soon the apprentice knights will wake up and start eating.

    ‘Let’s try our luck at mealtime.’

    * * * * * *

    “What I’m talking about from now on is confidential information, so you must not disclose it to anyone.”

    “What?”

    The eyes of the apprentice knights, who were filling their hungry stomachs, turned towards us.

    Some people wrinkle their eyebrows, while others turn their gaze to the food tray as if they don’t care.

    “We are raising seawater in Yunaira.”

    “What kind of nonsense is this all of a sudden?”

    “Concentrate. Because this is a story that depends on your life.”

    I didn’t want to say this.

    The tone, which was uncomfortable to listen to, finally made the trainee knights fixate on me.

    “Diana’s representative confronted the training director under the protection of a basilisk.”

    “Diana’s agent?”

    “Yunaira The head of the elves. Callisto Luna. Yunaira’s main character.”

    “If you don’t want to die, there’s no way you’ll come here. There’s no way you can get over the Great Wall unless you’re immortal in the first place, right?”

    Hume poured liquid nitrogen on the topic.

    Thanks to this, no one seemed to believe it and the group started eating again.

    Well, if you don’t want to believe it, there’s nothing you can do.

    “Yunaira Elf’s magic was explained before, right? The white wolf took notice of it. The power to communicate with animals and give orders.”

    “But what about that?”

    “This is not such a light matter. The reason why the Drekkar Alliance, which won the Great War, cut off its territory and built a great wall was because it was afraid of the sea.”

    Now I can feel the interested eyes and emotions.

    “How did you know that a high-ranking official from Yunaira had visited, and why did you reveal it to us, saying it was confidential? Why did you come to the training principal in the first place?”

    “I’ll explain it to you one by one. Diana’s representative is more of a servant than a high-ranking person. Even her personal actions can be seen as Diana’s will. So maybe they didn’t want the rumor to spread.”

    What kind of bullshit is this?

    “They gave us information. The white wolf is sending Diana’s chosen people into battle.”

    “Did you know that Diana is a servant for animals?”

    “Bork-type… Most seawater that is not bug-type seawater has intelligence equivalent to that of a human.”

    “Hae-soo is a non-human with at least the intelligence of a monkey. I will hunt Ain like I would hunt a rabbit.”

    Amilla’s eyes narrow.

    “Why are you saying that? What do you want to say in conclusion?”

    “I want to teach you how to deal with Hae-soo.”

    “Just let me know.”

    “How to deal with it directly, right in front of your eyes.”

    Coober’s brow furrowed.

    “···In front of your eyes?”

    “I will cross the sand and large wall tomorrow or tomorrow.”

    “What?!” “Why are you saying that now?!” “Don’t say nonsense!”

    The reactions of the apprentice knights were varied.

    Some are surprised, some are excited, some are reluctant, and some are scared.

    “If the opponent is at sea level, you can use gunpowder on this side, right?”

    As always, it was Kailish who calmly expressed his opinion.

    “People don’t fight with rabbits. Don’t hunt. Likewise, the sea water will hunt us. In burrows, in water, on trees. In the dark.”

    Kailish, who understands the meaning, nods and agrees.

    Was it because Kailish asked an appropriately plausible question that made me lose my temper?

    The apprentice knights were just looking at each other.

    “Director Yang Seong will accompany you. If you don’t want to participate, it’s okay to not participate. If you have any thoughts, please tell me now.”

    “Me.” “Me.”

    Jean and Isabelle raise their hands.

    Susan looked at the two in turn, then touched her temple.

    “···I’m going too.”

    Amilla was showing interest from the beginning and raised her hand, but it even started shaking.

    “I want to go too! Me too!”

    Kailish also raises his hand with a studious look in his eyes.

    “Me too.”

    To Coober.

    “···I’ll go too.”

    And… there was no more.

    “You must compile a list of people who will participate in hunting and report it. So come out now. Is there any more?”

    We expected voluntary participation, but no one comes forward, just looking at each other’s opinions. okay. I can’t help it. I rolled in the mountains for a month.

    For me it was everyday life, but for those kids it must have been extreme.

    It could not be forced on apprentice knights who needed to take a break.

    “I can’t help it.”

    I can’t help but be disgusted.

    But that doesn’t mean we can just wait.

    It can’t be helped.

    Of the 26 apprentice knights, only seven, including me, made it to the grand wall.

    * * * * * *

    Mosquito repellent, plenty of extra socks and boots, Ainbyul gloves, a multi-purpose sword and two hundred steel bolts that are not Moxie, snake venom antidote, roundworm medicine, beef jerky, etc…

    I had to pack a lot of things.

    The good news is that I can fill the water for drinking with my spirit.

    That alone was a really big advantage.

    The faces of the six apprentice knights who received the actual bolts were flushed.

    “You know to avoid fighting as much as possible, right? Follow the rules.”

    It’s really calm.

    I still remember the face and name of the first person I killed.

    I took each air gun, put it in my pocket, pressed the air pump, and loaded the air gun.

    Jean couldn’t take his eyes off the air rifle because it looked so amazing.

    “Is this… a sound like thunder? When catching an immortal.”

    “Yes. It’s a weapon for saltwater hunting. Because it is not a human weapon, its firepower is enormous.”

    It’s not as good as my arrow.

    At the word “immortal,” all the apprentice knights’ eyes turn to my weapon.

    But that was all.

    Sitting on a chair, I stepped on a pump that felt quite resistant, as if my feet were shaking, and drew the appearance of sea water on the parchment on the table.

    Coober must have been so distracted that he couldn’t take his eyes off my leg.

    “What about that?”

    “Commander Jungmun told me to draw sea water.”

    “Commander Jungmun?! Small role?!”

    “Yes.”

    The commander is a one-star in the Korean military.

    Ranks are divided into Hwan, Jwa, and Yeok, and each is divided into small, middle, and high ranks.

    It was none other than an executive who left after promising that if we kept quiet about the Immortal matter, he would promote us all to knights.

    “It will probably be used as a kind of textbook.”

    “······So, is that the infamous gunpowder weapon?”

    Jean looks at my weapon with a reluctant face.

    This is because of the numerous accidental explosions of the infamous nitroglycerin.

    “It’s not a gunpowder weapon. Don’t worry so much.”

    The explosive bolts available to seawater hunters with a license are famous for their low stability.

    There’s no one you can’t catch if you shoot it with that ‘No. 3’ gunpowder bolt, but wasn’t there someone who tried to shoot it at me right away and dropped it and exploded along with the building?

    ‘How can I carry this with my balls shaking?’

    Didn’t even the creator’s younger brother die in the explosion?

    With a bomb that explodes when shaken or impacted in the first place, who can take full advantage of its mobility?

    “···You draw well.”

    Isabel looks at the book with envy.

    I can’t believe you’re good at drawing after seeing this.

    “Not really.”

    On Pangea, painting was a noble hobby.

    When people draw, do they draw thousands or tens of thousands of pictures and refer to the Internet to hone their skills?

    But there is nothing like that here, pigments are expensive and paper is even more expensive.

    “This is my first time seeing you. What style of painting is this?”

    Well, it’s just a game illustration.

    “Wow, Haesoo looks so cool.”

    Jean bursts out in admiration.

    There are people who turn black like goats when they see the real thing.

    This is because just by howling, their bodies freeze at the cellular level due to the infrasound waves.

    Sigh…

    The sound of old hinges is particularly loud.

    The one who caught everyone’s attention was Bessie.

    Ali wanted to stay, but Bessie wanted us to follow.

    “Are you ready?”

    “Yes.”

    “Then let’s leave now.”

    Apprentice knights with eight-shot bolt cases hanging on their sides carried military uniforms with flushed expressions.

    Everyone crossed the colon wall under the guidance of Director Yang.

    The middle gate of the main wall was restored very neatly, as if it had been destroyed at some point.

    It’s such a thrill to pass by the place I destroyed again.

    As always, the soldiers were cutting down trees and weeding while cursing.

    All you need to do is spray salt water or Agent Orange.

    The army seems to be the army.

    ‘How can they do the same thing now as they did 10 years ago?’

    After finishing writing the document, the training director puts down his pen.

    “Are you done?”

    “Yes! Done!”

    Clap!

    A powerful salute steals my attention.

    “Take care!”

    The gatekeeper glances at the group from the corner of his eye as if they are stealing.

    “Good luck.”

    Everyone, not just the gatekeeper, looked at us carrying weapons, but interest soon waned.

    Because the weeds, which were stronger and more disgusting than the wheels, were softly swaying.

    And so the march toward the southeast began.
