‘Hey…’

I’ve heard that the U.S. military base in Pyeongtaek is big, but… isn’t this just a bit of an exaggeration, like a small town?

Aren’t you going to be cut off from the entrance without being able to get inside this?

It seemed like there was no need to worry like that.

I don’t know if he was concerned about such a situation, but Juyeon kindly sent me a text message with instructions for action.

‘I told you to call me at the number I sent you when you arrive.’

So I parked the car for a while and called the number I was given, and after a short conversation, I was told that they would leave right away.

And not long after, what appeared before my eyes was a young man in a military uniform.

“Welcome to Camp Humphreys. Mr. Yoon.”

“Thank you for your hospitality.”

“First… Would you like us to park the car first and then go inside?”

“Yes, of course.”

Following the guidance of a man who introduced himself as Taejun Choi, you parked your car in an empty parking lot and followed him out?

Eyes began to fly in from all directions as if they were looking at something strange.

Well, from the perspective of the unit members who live here, it must feel amazing.

At first glance, a guy who looks like a civilian is walking around the base with a sergeant hanging in front of him.

So, I understand that my eyes inevitably went to him, but… other than that, I didn’t feel very happy about it.

From my perspective, it was totally worth it because everyone was glancing at me like that and it made me feel like I was a monkey locked in a cage at the zoo, not a human.

There… it reminded me of old times.

“Um···.”

So, I let out a little sigh without realizing it, but… was it actually a reaction to that sound?

Sergeant Choi, who was walking about a couple of steps ahead of me and claiming to be a guide, smiled awkwardly and asked for my understanding.

“I’m really sorry about this. In fact, the identity of the VIP could not be revealed due to confidentiality reasons, so the general unit members were informed that a Korean documentary producer was planning to visit the base for a filming tour.”

“Ah… I see.”

In that case, it wasn’t a look of curiosity, but a look of wooing that they wanted to appear in a documentary scheduled to be filmed in the future.

You may ask what good there is in a soldier becoming famous, but unless you are going to spend your whole life being a soldier, there is no harm in being famous.

This is an age where you can make money just by being famous.

“Ah, you’ve arrived. Just go inside.”

Aren’t you going together?

“Unfortunately, the authority granted to me ends here.”

Despite his rank as a sergeant, he seemed to know something, so I thought he was an agent placed within the U.S. military by the CIA or something like that, but it seems that wasn’t the case.

“Thank you for the guidance.”

“What.”

So, after catching a glimpse of Sergeant Choi like that, he headed toward the building he had just pointed to.

The other day, when I was talking about a contract with a man called the Vice President of the United States, he said that training would be conducted in a new separate building within the Pyeongtaek base, that is, Camp Humphreys. Could this be the newly built building?

Looking at this, the US military was clearly a crazy group.

Considering how quickly a building like this was created after signing a contract.

It didn’t even seem like it was built in a hurry or wasted effort.

I don’t know if it’s because everyone who plans to use this building is an Awakened person, but even though the exterior looks a bit rough, it looks unique in terms of strength.

Just looking at it, it looks like it’s made of special steel made by mixing materials from monsters rather than regular metal… At this level, it won’t be broken by anything.

This is unlikely to happen, but even if a major earthquake suddenly occurs, wouldn’t this building be intact even in the earthquake?

As I was walking along the hallway that spread out ahead, taking in the elements of the newly built, distinctive building, a large door blocked my path.

He carefully pushed it and went inside, and it flew in as if it had been waiting and started to stick–

‘Huh, look at this?’

To me, they were the kind of perspectives that brought back nostalgia for the past.

These are very similar views to the ones I received when I just entered the gifted education center.

Eyes that seemed to say, ‘Why are you showing off like that?’ repeatedly came from the people wearing military uniforms and landed in the center of my face.

“It’s diverse, it’s diverse.”

Has someone described the country called America as a melting pot of races?

Looking at the sight I could see now, it seemed like there was nothing wrong with what I said.

From whites and blacks who are proud of their bulky stature, to those who appear to be of mixed race, including Latinos and Asians.

I don’t know if they intentionally made the composition as diverse as possible to comply with his political correctness or something, but literally there were all kinds of people with their eyes fixed on me.

They have different skin colors, hair colors, and even body and eye colors.

If there was only one thing they had in common, it was that the way they all looked at me was not kind.

Should I say that it’s like looking at a would-be fraudster?

Of course, not everything was like that.

The woman at the end of the line just stared at me silently, without showing any emotion in her eyes.

‘her.’

It was a soldier, right?

Well, is this the official promotional model for the US military?

First of all… she didn’t have the kind of looks that immediately come to mind when you think of Western women.

I don’t know if it was because his hair was brown, almost red, and his occupation was a soldier, but his skin color wasn’t that white either.

Nevertheless… it was so pretty that I couldn’t help but admire it.

The body wrapped in the tight military uniform was also perfectly balanced.

This means that the place to come out is coming out and the place to go in is going in.

However, what caught my eye more than all those things was none other than the eyes.

I don’t know if it’s because of the distance, but the blue eyes look gray at first glance.

There was something magical about it that caught people’s attention.

Should I say that I keep looking at it without realizing it?

In that sense… I probably wouldn’t have achieved great success even if I had been an actor instead of a soldier.

‘Rahee… I think you are wrong.’

Why do kids with pretty faces and good bodies become models or soldiers instead?

Are there any among the soldiers?

A girl with a pretty face and an amazing body?

That was the reason I was looking in that direction.

Did my actions like that stimulate the hearts of other males in this space?

The gaze that had been flying toward my face from earlier became even more fierce.

‘Huh, look at this?’

Is this because it is a female that the nugs have already spotted?

Is this what it means to drink kimchi soup first without even thinking about the person you are going to give rice cake to?

The eye guard suddenly became like a public enemy for making a mistake, and from my point of view, I could only laugh.

Somehow, this was even more so because it was the same as before.

Tell me what to do.

It was like this when Rahee and I first met.

Even before she reigned as the queen of the gifted education center, Rahee was a wannabe for her male classmates.

So when Rahee and I started dating, everyone did everything they could to try to get me down.

‘Of course, I won in the end.’

Is it because of the situation that brings back such old nostalgia?

I don’t know if it was because I was glad to see it, but I kept laughing regardless of my will, and I was laughing heartily without even realizing it… Did I take it as a kind of provocation?

Still, among the male cubs here, the white guy who had been blatantly ignoring me from the moment I first entered this space, who seemed to be at the top in terms of rank and ranking, strode forward.

The growling voice was a bonus.

“Why do you keep smiling?”

Why do you keep smiling…

“Of course… because it’s funny?”

“What is that… Hey, does this situation seem like a joke?”

“Then it’s not funny and it’s exhausting? I came here to train you, but the people who came to receive training maintain an attitude that seems to say, ‘I have no intention of being trained by people like you!’

Needless to say, it was the perfect answer.

The blond guy’s shoulders twitched slightly.

In that way, I dug deeper without missing the gap where my shoulder was open.

“If you don’t want to do it, just go away. I have no intention of teaching those idiots who don’t even realize how great the opportunity they have been given.”

“What…?”

” I’m not that kind of a person to grab hold of retarded children who lack understanding and teach them step by step. ”

Well…are you mad?

Is your stomach boiling?

Then you should rush in, right?

It must have been at the moment when I was maintaining a mid-open posture, thinking that if my opponent tried to grab me by the collar, I would be able to do so.

“Stop.”

A slightly husky voice came out and passed between the blond guy and me.
