Isabelle, who returned to the officers’ quarters, had a rather gloomy look on her face.

    “Did I do something wrong?”

    When Isabel was told not to be respectful to the supply officer, she absurdly objected, saying that she did not understand.

    We fought for over 30 minutes making such ridiculous claims, and this is the result.

    Even the first impressions of the non-commissioned officers were ruined.

    “Ask Jean while eating.”

    I’ll be clapping and laughing.

    Isabel raises her head and looks straight into my eyes.

    “···How long are you going to do this?”

    “? What did I do?”

    “You keep doing that! Ever since that woman started blowing strange air!”

    His face was covered and covered, but he seemed angry.

    Maybe it’s because I had a crappy day, but now I’m even showing signs of paranoia.

    “The county is a hierarchical society. If a father treats his children with respect, isn’t it natural to question them and stop them from doing so?”

    “No…!”

    “If you want to be respected, go on vacation and take off your military uniform and rank badge from your chest.”

    “······!”

    Tears welled up in Isabel’s eyes.

    “···Why are you doing this to me?”

    ‘What did I do?’

    I feel irritated.

    However, ignoring it means breaking the relationship.

    “A man named Erwin Rommel said this:”

    A doubt appeared in Isabelle’s eyes.

    Of course.

    Because he was from Earth, not Pangea.

    “Don’t think the world has abandoned you. The world has never had you. This is my personal favorite.”

    “···What are you talking about all of a sudden?”

    “What you experienced today is simply an unlucky day. So, don’t let pessimism taint your bright future.”

    Because the person I hate the most is a person steeped in paranoia and armed with defense mechanisms like a suicide terrorist.

    Talking to a person like that is itself torture.

    Only then did Isabel let go of her anger and look up at me with a pout.

    “···Can you please stop saying old-fashioned things like a liberal arts teacher?”

    “When people get old, they all become old-fashioned. I’m sure you do too. We’ll prepare a meal for you, so come out to eat when you feel like it.”

    thud!

    I closed the door to the empty dorm.

    If I wanted to reassure her, it would have been better to stay by her side, but she didn’t.

    Isabelle’s dependence on me continues to overlap with Anne.

    Probably because they look alike.

    What happened to Anne, who asked me if I was coming like that?

    I became the person who only chased after myself, leaving my work behind.

    “What happened?”

    like now.

    “It’s not a big deal.”

    Anne, who was leaning against the wall, shrugged and naturally approached me.

    “···I feel sorry for you.”

    “What do you feel sorry for?”

    Anne naturally hugged my arm and clung to me.

    “That girl.”

    “So, why do you feel sorry for me?”

    “Well, you were betrayed, right?”

    betrayal?

    “Can you explain?”

    Anne’s eyes widened, and then she burst into laughter.

    “The story is a bit long.”

    “It doesn’t matter.”

    “Um···.”

    Anne hesitated, and eventually leaned her head towards me.

    There was a coexistence of love and hate in the way he looked at me.

    “Lee is very trustworthy. And you’re good there, right? There are no problems on the inside, and it is perfect on the outside as well. Lee is a prince to women.”

    ‘I’m a prince?’

    I laughed at the trivial sound.

    It’s probably just something that happened.

    “So, without realizing it, I start leaning on him and thinking that he likes me. But as you know, Lee is kind to everyone. Because you are a prince.”

    “Is there anyone in the world who is perfect?”

    “The reason Lee is not perfect is because he is kind to everyone. From other people’s perspectives, I feel very sad about the wall that Lee created. Ah, I guess I was the only one who thought they were close. And so.”

    This is not Isabel’s story, but my story.

    Red eyes full of selfishness and affection shine beautifully.

    “Lee…don’t you have any intention of becoming a more perfect person?”

    “Isn’t perfection your subjective standard?”

    “Then, please give me a little of your time.”

    ‘What the hell is this person…’

    Now it’s even miserable.

    Didn’t he clearly refuse?

    Only after looking around was I able to speak.

    “Anne… Don’t you know who I am? Can you handle the saint and the white wolf?”

    I crossed the wall.

    Whether they come to me or I go looking for them, we will meet somehow.

    ‘What if Anne was there?’

    Just imagining it gave me goosebumps.

    “No. Are you going to run away into the ground?”

    “Yes?”

    “Do you think I haven’t received any education about saints? That thing is a complete monster!”

    ‘···You’re going to run away?’

    It was very confusing.

    Isn’t the ideal picture of dating to get to know a person, become close with them, and agree to get married if you think you’re a good fit?

    It means that he was eliminated from there in advance.

    Are you saying you were pushed out of the breeding competition?

    “You will be a loser.”

    Anne’s beautiful eyebrows were slightly wrinkled.

    However, it soon disappears.

    “It’s okay if that’s what bothers you. Because I like shoplifting. In the first place, isn’t it natural for someone like Lee to have a partner who is several times higher in class than someone like me?”

    So, I made a compromise in my head.

    It doesn’t matter if it’s the next best solution.

    ‘···Do you think it makes sense?’

    No one should live such a miserable life.

    “Even a simple earthworm can find a mate that suits him.”

    “If there was, would I be like this? Since we can’t compromise at all, we’re clinging to it like this. You are the one who gave me a second life!”

    Anne pushes me up and looks up at me.

    Even though he was a head shorter than me, for some reason I couldn’t overcome the power of his body.

    “Do you know how happy I was when I was able to talk to other people?! There was only you in my world, and it’s still only you now.”

    Anne looks up at me.

    Eventually, the focus of the red eyes filled with disappointment lowers.

    “Wow… it’s really too much.”

    “It’s okay to do things like dating later. It’s not like I’m getting old anyway…”

    “No! Don’t be such an idiot! My mind grows old too! That’s why dating should be done at a young age! As I get older, I don’t want to have a relationship that feels like reading a book that I know everything about!”

    That is correct.

    “···Other people only look at my appearance. If you take away my appearance, what is left?”

    “I see a diligent and potential woman who is cheerful, blessed by the servant who created the world, prepares for the future, diligently learns visionary work, and does not neglect self-development.”

    Anne laughs.

    “···Other people don’t see it that way. Who I am, what I like, who I am, everything! All men are looking at the hole between my crotches!”

    “Not everyone is like that, right?”

    Anne burst out laughing.

    “What? A person who knows more about people than anyone else would say something like that?”

    ···that’s right.

    Because the world is made up of evaluations.

    People simply evaluated Anne’s uniquely outstanding and mysterious appearance.

    But being beautiful on the outside is never a bad thing.

    “Everyone in the world is like that. Except Lee. That’s why I can’t give up. ···Because Lee is like a prince who came to me even after seeing my terrible appearance.”

    Anne cries again.

    The image of Anne, who looked like a gnat, flashed through my mind.

    The incomprehensible smile you gave me back then.

    It feels like an awl is stuck in my conscience.

    When there is a situation where nature and reason are in conflict, the mind breaks down.

    So it became impossible to know what was right.

    “I’ll reconsider.”

    “···Thank you.”

    inventory?

    What do you think about the guy who decided to go to Edeline when it was all over?

    ···.

    You idiot.

    You just spilled water.

    You have to pick it up again right away.

    Anne…

    “Ha.”

    disappeared.

    Just hearing what you want to hear.

    * * * * * *

    “What about Isabel?”

    “I treated the soldiers with respect, but I went crazy after fighting with the supply officer for 30 minutes.”

    “What?! Do you speak respectfully to soldiers?!”

    Susan giggled and clapped her hands.

    ─This is normal.

    In countries with a conscription system, stories about the military are commonplace, and women also go to the military. There’s no way you don’t know about the military.

    So, Isabel’s actions were literally eccentric.

    “It seemed like a pretty serious problem to me. Don’t say anything.”

    “I shouldn’t have stopped you. Where were you two last night in the first place?”

    “The temporary chief of staff said I had to sleep in the barracks for one day, so I slept in the administrative office together?”

    “What?”

    “No? That’s what we heard.”

    Amilla and Kuber’s brows furrowed.

    I guess there is something to be said.

    “And the barracks were so rotten that we had to do some repairs here and there… That was just it. You?”

    “I’m ruined. The supply officer was hitting me on the back, so I told someone, but the alley leader, who had been harassing me every day in the village, was standing there in silence. He went to the military and didn’t come back even after a few years, so I really liked him… I guess he decided to bury his bones here.”

    “The world is such a small place.”

    Amilla let out a deep sigh.

    ” Baek In-jang was so noisy that he tried to teach while being semi-respectful…”

    “Amilla. We are in a position to be taught.”

    When Coober interrupted, Amilla sighed and sighed.

    “···Who doesn’t know?”

    “What about the security guard?”

    Jean smiles bitterly.

    “Sheri thinks I’m still having a hard time. Other than that, everything is fine.”

    I guess so.

    If you see him eating alone from afar.

    Isolation has already begun.

    “There is nothing to try to do here. It’s just about managing the loading and unloading of luggage and other miscellaneous things, but all we have to do is decide on the quantity and extras.”

    “You’re good at calculating things like that.”

    “That’s true, but the extra thing…is really ambiguous.”

    Kailish also laughed bitterly like Jean.

    “They said they had extra supplies and applied for about 2% more than the appropriate amount. Bastards of thieves.”

    After all, the army is the army.

    Before the road was cleared, it took several weeks to get from the Rhine River to the Great Wall. Now, thanks to the reclamation, I managed to arrive in three days by carriage…

    Unlike Earth, where you can eat something whenever you want, this is a place where it is difficult to find food.

    It is correct to view it as stockpiling for emergencies rather than theft.

    “Ah, are you here?”

    “···Yes.”

    Isabelle, who was sitting helplessly next to me, placed her hand on the tray where she had already prepared the meal.

    “You said you ruined everything because of that guy’s polite language?”

    “···Strictly speaking, isn’t respecting each other mutual respect?”

    “Have you been living in another world? Think of the way the training director speaks respectfully to us. hello~? This is the training director~ Please look after me for the next half year~!”

    Susan sneers sarcastically.

    Only then did Isabel burst into laughter.

    “Wow… It really hits home.”

    Isabel shoves food into her mouth.

    If you don’t want to eat it, you don’t have to eat it.

    “Well, it looks less distant, right?”

    “Yes, but it won’t be as bad as you think. When it comes to rank insignia, aren’t you the same age anyway?”

    “Yeah, it’ll be okay.”

    “Think of Director Yang Seong. Although he didn’t treat us with respect, he also respected us, right?”

    Did Kailish’s words open your ears?

    Isabelle looked around, and then nodded.

    “I’ll try my best.”
