I Returned, But My Power is the Same

Chapter 130 flame

Disarming the equipment suddenly.

Are you going to fight barefoot?

“It’s just to see how quickly you can equip it.”

Ah, somehow.

No matter how much an executive is, there is no way I can make him fight with his bare body.

Breaths of relief escape from the mouths of the trainees.

It seems everyone was thinking the same thing.

“Originally, starting with the theory education and learning it one by one according to the instructors, I would like to see it once. What level are you?”

nothing to see

that would be the worst

A squad leader in a unit and a squad leader here are completely different roles.

The former is reorganized and becomes similar to the latter, but that is later.

“The first task is to go to destroy the gate, assuming that the gate suddenly bursts in the jurisdiction.”

The task itself is easy.

It’s like eating rice.

But from now on, you have to ‘lead’.

Anyway.

I think I understand why you told me to disarm the equipment.

The most important thing in an emergency is speed.

That means we’ll see it together.

“Don’t publish each squad list.”

The senior instructor calls out each person’s name from the 1st squad.

Whether by chance or by chance, I belonged to Squad 1 just like in the unit.

“Hello.”

“nice to meet you.”

It’s the first face you see. Because there is no one from our unit except me.

It was good to say goodbye earlier.

“Everyone works hard.”

“Yes. Let’s make it through.”

They fought and lined up.

Then he stood in front of the senior instructor again.

“I will take turns leading the squad. There is no separate division commander.”

There is no separate division commander.

Do you think you will only understand the individual’s commanding ability?

Well, the sea I was expecting.

So it would be ‘professional officer training’.

“To each squad location.”

“To location!”

The vehicle was already placed in the front.

We waited behind him with the equipment dismantled.

Soon after, the senior instructor’s instructions fell.

“Gate creation within jurisdiction, gate creation. Each squad must be dispatched immediately.”

Trainees begin to equip themselves quickly.

Then he got into the vehicle and moved to the jurisdiction of the actual Capital Defense Hunter Command.

Upon arrival, you will see several training gates.

After that, it was obvious

“Defeat the monster first and then remove the gate!”

The trainees who served as squad leaders led the other trainees.

But he was only leading.

It wasn’t smooth.

There was only a saying that we would kill the monster first and then remove the gate, but there was no specific word on what to do.

“As expected. Everyone returns.”

In the end, less than an hour after dispatch, he returned to the training ground.

I’ve never even played the role of a squad leader.

Well, nothing to regret.

Conducting is something you can’t do even if you use memories and information from before the return.

“We will proceed with the theory education.”

The real thing went over the water.

Now you have a few weeks of theory training.

But this is the original schedule.

And have you tried it before?

that you can’t do anything right now.

“In this situation, it is better to divide the squad members into two groups. to the anterior and posterior. And block both sides.”

The senior instructor points to the screen and explains.I listened as much as I could.

And I wrote them all down.

Because I listened to what I would have listened to over a long period of time if I had left the military academy, condensed into a few weeks.

That’s why you shouldn’t miss any of them.

“how? Can you hear me?”

“Hmm…”

“Why?”

“It’s a bit difficult. No, it has to be difficult.”

That night.

He had a separate seat with Lieutenant Young So-jin.

“How did the deputy commander do all this?”

“I just memorized daldal, daldal, and daldal, then went to practice and practiced, practiced again and so on, right?”

“Wow, the future is dark.”

“No, it’s because it’s your first time with Dojin. You get used to it quickly. It will be the same in practice.”

Lieutenant Young So-jin suddenly twinkles in his eyes.

“Or should I give private tutoring?”

“Is that okay?”

“There’s nothing you can’t do. It seems that other instructors do the same. To the trainees from the same unit as you.”

“Five.”

“how? Would you like to take it?”

“It’s Obcalls.”

It’s not anyone else, it’s Lieutenant Young Sojin.

He is a talented person who graduated from the military academy with excellent grades.

If it’s from someone like that, I’d rather get it by bowing down.

“Let’s take a look here.”

“Yep.”

There was nothing special about the extracurricular.

The extent to which you are rehearsing what you have learned.

But the fact that I can ask all the questions and that if I don’t know, they keep telling me until I understand, those things helped me a lot.

I’ll have to go to a department store later and buy some presents.

“Dojin-ah, aren’t you hungry?”

“It hurts.”

“Would you like to have dinner?”

“Oh, I’m fine.”

It was possible to eat late-night snacks because free time was guaranteed outside of training hours.

The menu, of course…

“I will enjoy this food.”

“Huh. Bon Appetit.”

“Eat this.”

“thanks.”

It was chicken.

I handed a chicken leg to Lieutenant Young So-jin, and I also picked up the remaining chicken leg.

Even though I haven’t put it in my mouth yet, it has a crunchy texture.

I couldn’t stand it and put it in my mouth.

nice.

This is the taste.

The bones are exposed in an instant.

“Then I will eat the bones. Eat slowly.”

“Yes.”

While I was eating chicken for a while, I suddenly remembered that time.

May I ask?

Well.

I don’t think so.

“Anything you want to ask me?”

“Hey, how did you know?”

“It’s written on my face.”

Damn it.

Were you thinking too hard?

I said while coughing in vain.

“I, that’s…”

“it’s okay. ask.”

I do not know.

just ask

“The man you mentioned earlier… Did you know that it’s hard to forget that you’ve met a woman… Maybe… Are you still like that…?”

“You still haven’t forgotten?”

“Yes.”

“Huh.”

“Yes…? Are you still…?”

Several months have passed.

Even passed it.

But still?

Lieutenant Young So-jin said with a faint smile.

“Yeah. It should be forgotten, but it is not forgotten.”

“…”

“Am I stupid?”

“Oh, no.”

“Nope. That’s stupid.”

smiling but looking sad

just don’t ask

You just asked me and made me feel bad.

Lieutenant Young So-jin murmured with her head bowed.

“I really don’t know what I’m doing alone. I can’t even act like I used to because I’m dating a girl.”

***

Hunter Headquarters personnel office.

The personnel officer was staring intently at a sheet of paper.

“Choi Do-jin, this friend is amazing. Everything passed with perfect marks.”

“That’s it. I don’t know why I couldn’t enter the military academy.”

“At that time, I didn’t see much, but I saw the light later.”

“Isn’t the period too short for that?”

“term?”

“It was last June when that friend of Do-Jin Choi left the Hunter Training Center and entered the military. He took the promotion exam in early mid-February, so he passed in eight months.”

The greeting officer spoke carefully.

“Isn’t this supposed to be investigated? It’s so absurd.”

“It could make sense.”

“how?”

“I ate the Hidden Peace, or the traits were revealed too late.”

“If it were Amman’s Hidden Peace, would it be this far? It’s the same with characteristics.”

“I don’t know if there are several.”

The personnel officer took a sip of tea and said.

“Even if it weren’t for both, I wouldn’t have increased my power illegally. If you get caught, you will be disqualified and you will have to be locked up.”

“Hmm.”

“Anyway, it’s fun, but it’s fun.”

A roar of laughter rang out.

“Aren’t you curious? How far will this friend go?”

***

The theory training took place over several weeks.

And from time to time, other trainings were held.

“You may have heard it pierce your ears, but one of the biggest differences between an officer and a soldier is this mana.”

It was mana education.

“Since I passed the promotion exam, everyone knows how to handle it to some extent. But it’s not too hard to deal with to some extent. You should be able to use it even more by shooting like magic bullets with your fingers or wearing a sword like a shield.”

“Yes.”

“From now on, I will tell you how.”

The unit also informs you.

But I’m going to explain it a little more systematically here.

But that doesn’t happen overnight.

one day something

It won’t happen until all the professional officer training has been completed.

The instructor also mentioned it.

“It is impossible to learn within the training period anyway. So, don’t be afraid to practice.”

“Yes.”

“Okay then, let’s start with mana practice.”

The start is still mana practice.

I immediately sat cross-legged and raised my mana.

So far it’s pretty easy.

The next one is difficult.

“Feel the mana.”

to feel mana.

It’s a little different from how you feel when using mana tuning, mana response, or mana enhancement.

“You have to be able to feel it and pull it out.”

Because you have to pull it out.That way, you can shoot that mana with your fingers like magic bullets or apply it to your sword like a shield.

Unfortunately, there was no response.

Really no reaction.

Obviously, pulling it out is another matter.

This is going to take a few years.

was expecting.

Because I had no talent for mana in the first place.

If it had been like this, I wouldn’t have reacted even before the return.

“Keep repeating.”

repeat.

repeat again.

One day, two days, three days, a week, a full moon, and so on, it was repeated until the theoretical education was finished.

I suddenly have this thought.

If there was another hidden piece related to mana.

So if you ate

I hope things are a little better now.

Ah.

No.

He immediately shook his head.

Hidden Peace.

good.

Because you can realize or become stronger in one shot.

But don’t rely on it too much.

I will neglect my efforts, and I will not be able to do things that I could normally do on my own.

okay.

Let’s train like this.

Then one day you will see the light.

He clenched his fists and continued training.

A few days passed again.

“This concludes the theoretical education.”

And the theory training was over.

Time to take turns taking on the role of squad leader as we did on the first day.

So, it’s time to hone your leadership skills.

But before that, there was one more process left.

“Would you like to see everyone deal with mana? How much has it grown?”

always increased

It was impossible to pull it out, but it was successful in concentrating mana in each part.

It was the result of hanging around day and night.

Of course, Lieutenant Young So-jin also has the virtue of tutoring.

“Come on, let’s do it one by one.”

The trainees start to raise their mana one by one.

But it was there.

Mana never came out.

Then my turn came.

Whoa.

She picked it up short and lightly raised her arm. Let her palms go to the sky.

Now, all you have to do is let mana flow over this palm.

self-

Mana draws in from her body.

He concentrated that mana as much as possible with his palm.

And when she felt like it was to some extent, she gave her strength.

/ When giving strength, don’t think of giving strength to the body. You should think of it as giving your mana power.

Recalling what Lieutenant Young So-jin said.

But the result was still there.

There was no reaction.

are you okay.

Isn’t there no progress at all?

I succeeded in concentrating on a specific part.

It was a moment that was overlooked.

Kwak-!

Fireworks rose over the palms of his hands.

it was mana
