episode_0457

Jean, realizing that Isabelle was not among those returning from vacation, approached me.

“···What about Isabel?”

“I went back to the castle because I was stabbed by the royal knights at the command stage.”

The apprentice knights’ expressions darkened at their simple reply.

I guess they were all planning to apologize together.

“It’s a good thing. My boring military life is over.”

Susan responds as if it is no big deal.

Thanks to this, the attention of my classmates was focused on Susan.

“What, did I say something wrong? Unlike us, Isabel is a princess.”

Yes.

Everyone here decided to become a knight just to make money.

In a way, this means that there is no place for these physical monsters to be treated and work as they deserve.

“Okay. You are right.”

Envy and jealousy are natural.

Because it’s not something that can’t be tolerated. Now it’s time to clean up afterward.

When a tiger dies, it leaves behind its skin, and a soldier leaves behind supplies after being discharged.

“If anyone has broken supplies such as crossbow racks or bolt cases, exchange them with Isabelle before coming to collect them.”

In response, several apprentice knights got up from their seats and came towards us.

“Oh, and… I couldn’t say it with my own mouth, but I told you that I was sorry.”

I hope you all think of Isabel as a good person and forget about her.

Because Isabel is a good person who wants to remain a good person to everyone.

I had to get dressed up.

After quickly changing clothes, I headed straight to my workplace, and Jean walked up next to me.

“···Isabel is safe, right?”

” Bok-su was hiding among the royal knights escorting him. I killed him on the spot.”

“What, what?!”

Jean became lost in thought.

“No. What I’m saying is… the way back will be fine.”

“Ah… Yes.”

Ugh.

I need to be able to tease the snout properly.

“Anyway, see you in the evening.”

“Okay, see you in the evening.”

Jean waves his hand with an awkward smile and walks up the high mountain.

From what I hear, it seems that there are so many professional soldiers that there are no more positions for white commanders, which is a practical limit.

Thanks to this, there are quite a few people who want to transfer to the 2nd Guard Corps.

As they are conducting dispatch evaluations, it seems like they are trying to be nice to Jean, who is sitting in the temporary chief of staff position.

‘I wonder how I will be treated.’

“Ah, did you have a good rest?”

The supply officer’s voice was full of joy.

The supply officer will probably be the leader of the 2nd Reconnaissance Company.

“Of course. Long time no see.”

“Ah, an order has been given to Vice President to move out.”

···.

“Yes?”

“Isn’t that obvious? He is a person who has achieved such an outstanding record.”

The supply officer had a smile on his face and handed me something similar to the notice.

“Congratulations. You have been given the honor of sitting as a temporary instructor for Wall Keeper Special Operations.”

My head was already pounding from the loud sound.

···I have a feeling that military life will become very annoying.

* * * * * *

I had no right to veto.

The workplace was not moved to the large wall.

All they had to do was train the wall guards dispatched to the temporary headquarters, and they were all members of the elite unit.

“Hello. My name is Dwin Lee and I have been transferred to become an instructor.”

‘What kind of education do such people need?’

“Hello.”

Even Baek In-jang looked quite stiff.

Is this perhaps a retaliatory transfer?

“I will say it straight to the point.”

The eyes that add confidence to my doubts are full of disbelief.

“I don’t know what noble’s son he is, but I hope you don’t say crazy things like nine people killed 800 people.”

“I didn’t come here to brag. As a former instructor, I was simply ordered to transfer.”

“Yes. Please just do what needs to be done.”

‘···What is happening in the later years?’

There was no need for any mutual greetings.

I didn’t need to know his name, and no one said hello to me.

‘It seems like they are being forced to voluntarily resign.’

But it was a very meaningful time for me.

Because I rarely had time to rest quietly like this.

To clear my head, I scribbled and drew seawater.

Old gun, Ymir’s tomb, Gyebyeong. With Groots, who bit Isabelle.

The container in which they store the sacred blood…

“Working hours are not time for drawing, right?”

What’s wrong with this?

“Teaching materials were being produced. These are all weapons and seawater operated by the enemy.”

“An elf rides a cockatrice, what nonsense are you talking about…”

Well, there is no way the people here know about the disease.

It was clear that this was probably designed by Rexi, a Rectalian.

“You may not know. Isn’t that why I came here to teach you?”

When I smile, Baek In-jang’s face hardens.

I was also surprised when I saw the soldier.

They put armor on a dinosaur-like guy and stab him with a pike…

“This is called Gyebyeong. In that state, I ride the battlefield as a standard bearer with a flag on my spear. The position is held by an elf who can wear armor with some degree of protection.”

“Why are you saying such nonsense?”

This is something strange.

“I would have submitted related teaching materials to the commander in Jungmun half a year ago. Have you received it yet?”

“···Are you telling me to believe something like that?”

It seems like this person simply didn’t believe it.

“You are free to distrust, but I hope you keep in mind that regret is always too late.”

I don’t want to have any more conversations with someone who goes against the orders of their superiors.

I started drawing again.

“After two weeks, one week of intensive training begins. I think they’ll probably watch the two training sessions… but I hope they don’t do any strange training.”

“I will deal with you alone.”

“···Yes?”

“This is to let you know in advance so that you can prepare.”

“···Aren’t you looking down on us too much?”

“You will know that when the time comes.”

I’ll drill this thing into your brain: respect.

* * * * * *

“So, you decided to train at 100 to 1?”

“Yes.”

“···Crazy guy.”

Amilla looks disgusted and eats her share of meat, as if she is fed up.

“Dwin.”

Coober looks at me intently.

With eyes full of doubt.

“Huh?”

“···Is that what happens to everyone who receives a servant’s blessing?”

“No.”

“Then?”

“Practical experience.”

“I want to learn something. I also want to observe your training.”

what?

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

“Oh, I want to do it too.”

Even Amilla is showing interest in me.

···These two are temporary commanders of the search party.

“Is it okay to do this?”

“Even if we say there was nothing we could do because we were just kids when we were attacked by you, that doesn’t mean the Wall Keeper was just a kid.”

yes.

When I think of a wall guard, the only thing that comes to mind is a hunter who lived in the village of ‘Ogre’.

Thanks to this, I burst out laughing.

“I think you guys are better.”

I learned well under a good teacher.

I literally learned it well.

He is a disciple of the White Wolf and the Hundred Year Knight, who have lived in war for over a century.

That difference made me who I am today.

“My father also said that he used to be an instructor teaching wall guards.”

Jean does what he knows.

Now that I think about it, this is where my father was sitting.

“I barely got to this point.”

“I guess not at all.”

I have several cheats.

However, my father was an instructor who was called a legend for nothing.

What if my father had something?

If that were the case, my father──

‘You must have come looking for me.’

My father was that kind of person.

“He didn’t receive the servant’s blessing, but when he was younger than me… early 20s? You were sitting here around that time, right?”

“Is that so? Well up to that point…”

“But why are you like that?”

Susan’s laughter makes all her classmates’ eyes turn to Jean.

All of the classmates’ eyes turn to Jean.

“Ah, your father is a monster?!”

He speaks passionately about the sense of entitlement and sense of responsibility unique to a child who has not been able to overcome his father’s back.

‘That’s right.’

The father is a monster that even Jules admits.

I can’t imagine that such a person has retired.

You must have received the blessings of Venus like your mother.

“The two of you…”

···I made a mistake.

“Are your parents okay?”

“Parents? Why is that?”

Not only Jean, but even the other apprentice knights are looking at me.

I was so relieved.

“To sit at this level at that age, life has to be a battle like mine. I wonder if people like that can live like ordinary people if they are immersed in peace.”

When humans face a life-or-death struggle or go to a battlefield, their senses expand as if they were taking drugs.

It is a sense of danger.

Primitive, pre-primitive. It is the instinct of an animal that survives in nature.

People who cannot overcome that expanded sensation develop PTSD.

Unlike before, the apprentice knights would also have fought in battle.

Perhaps because they are people who have killed people and gone through emotional hardships, they seem to understand what I am saying.

“I got a letter the day before yesterday saying that I had my fifth child?”

“···Really?”

I laughed.

My heart flutters uncontrollably from misery and relief, as if I were Hong Gil-dong.

···I’m so glad.

I’m really… so glad.

* * * * * *

Is it because of Coober and Amilla who decided to observe?

Or maybe I don’t like it?

The unit members were looking at me with an expression that was not appropriate.

“First. The dead do not answer or move.”

“Second. To deduce the situation, remain in the dead position until discovered by a survivor.”

“Third. I won’t leave this mountain.”

“The training period is one week, and depending on the severity of the injury, you have two lives. A torso injury can be life-threatening. A limb is two lives.”

I took my bow, dagger, shovel, and pigment and walked into the jungle.

“I will summarize the training situation.”

“A behemoth appeared within the Great Wall and hid in the mountains.”

“You received an order from your superiors to kill those who raise the stake.”

” Come back with all your might for a week in 2 hours.”

After giving the last warning, I ran straight into the mountain.

After digging the ground and digging a human trap, they dipped it in pigment and made a snare out of tree bark.

Simple, time-consuming tasks.

Before we know it, the sun is starting to set.

I covered my body with mud and lay down like a flounder covered in fallen leaves.

Rustling─ Rustling!

The sound of dozens of footsteps.

“···What kind of training is this?”

“What kind of idiotic behavior is that temporary instructor…”

They were right.

I’m leaving the colon wall in two weeks.

They will not be able to learn anything from me.

That’s why I wanted to give a ‘shock’.

Being thoroughly trampled by a strong person can also be of great help in the long run.

The number of people is 10 people.

It’s not bad.

Even if there is a misunderstanding, any attack can be countered.

‘We need to widen the distance and intercept.’

Soon the sound began to fade away.

The foot of the mountain has become quiet after everyone has left.

Only the light streaming from the tent where the commanders were gathered caught my attention.

‘How come there are only two soldiers guarding the supplies?’

Now I see that they are all commanders.

First, let’s remove the head.

I quietly cut down the two who were off guard with a false sword covered in pigment.

“Oh, no! What is this?!”

“You are dead. Please keep your mouth shut.”

The chief of staff and the supply officer glared at me blatantly.

“The first priority to kill on the battlefield is officers.”

Coober and Amilla burst into laughter at my answer.

After tying them up and sending them outside, they stole food, poured oil on it, and set it on fire.

“Instructor, instructor?!!”

“What are you doing now?!”

“Is it right for a soldier not to value the supplies purchased with taxes?”

Their faces turned pale at my general answer.

“You burned the supplies purchased with your taxes, right?”

“The original plan was to burn the enemy’s supplies.”

“Hmm…”

The chief and the supply officer were lost in thought, but Amilla and Kuber looked quite impressed.

Now it is the turn of the soldiers and grizzled generals to come down to Tannae.

“Next time, train properly.”

I took my Moxie and my crossbow and hid myself in the forest.

* * * * * *

The wall guards looked devastated as they inspected the burned supplies.

‘Crazy guys.’

Training is combat.

In battle, targeting the opponent’s supplies and officers is the top priority.

I made crossbows all over the mountain.

There were a few destroyed traps, but there were also traces of being caught.

He hid himself and waited for the other person’s actions.

Even though close to a hundred people are wandering around the same mountain, they cannot find me.

The sentinels, made up of quick-digesting hosots and terubs, quickly began to tire.

He became nervous and started searching roughly, and his actions became sluggish.

Unlike humans, the gastric juice of those who eat meat is a very strong acid.

In other words, you can’t just fill your stomach.

“Wow?! Ugh───!”

Thanks to you, I eat on an empty stomach.

All of them were traces, clues, and gaps.

Pop!

“Ugh!”

One of the hosots falls to his death after being hit by a bow.

At the sound, several people started running.

“Woman, here…!” Pak!

Soldiers hit by powerful arrows, not paintballs or the like, wince or faint.

The opponent’s response began.

Of course, the moment it showed signs of doing so, I immediately lowered my head and ran away.

Wedge!!!

Bolts fly out from under the mound.

“Here! It’s here!!!”

There you are.

The power and Zul’s sense of smell and hearing tell the opponent’s approximate location.

3, 2, 1!

The tripwire connected to the crossbow was pulled.

Baba baba bak!!!

There are ten installed.

It’s everything you brought with you.

“Waaanot me?

I hear a few screams.

It was installed evenly in blind spots to prevent the opponent from predicting the shooting point of the crossbow.

Thanks to this, the wall guards who were hit were unable to come to their senses.

“Stop shooting! We are allies!”

‘Did you misunderstand that it was a friendly mistake?’

The more I looked at it, the more spectacular it became.

Pak—! Pak—!

He fired arrows into the chests of those who survived with rapid fire.

Unfortunately, there was no time to retrieve the weapon.

Those who were hit by arrows in the torso were all eliminated.

At that point, it was natural for the remaining eighty soldiers to be nervous.

While they were starving, I was just about to eat a couple of cured hams.

‘Oh my?’

Soldiers show interest in the delicious smell.

Your sense of smell becomes extremely sensitive on an empty stomach.

─Five people.

The idiots broke the tithe.

Throwing away the ham wrapper, we quietly climbed the tree, climbed into a blind spot where we couldn’t see each other, and looked at the other person.

“···Isn’t that instructor crazy?”

“How do you burn supplies?!”

“This is my first time seeing such a crazy person.”

“What a mean bastard.”

‘Thank you for the compliment.’

Since food is running low, their intention is to split into squads and find me quickly.

Two seconds is enough to guess five.

Considering the time it would take for the group to respond, a 10-person squad had to be formed.

Arrows were fired rapidly at the opponent whose location was guessed in the bushes.

Faba Park!

“Wow!” “It hurts!!!”

“What, what?!” “Where are you?!”

The other party tracks the angle of incidence.

Then it looks in my direction, but I don’t know where I am.

Faba Park!

“It hurts!” “Ugh!”

Kudos to the commander for making a foolish decision.

It’s hunting time.
