I Returned, But My Power is the Same

Chapter 60 select

“what? A real male hunter and a female hunter merge? So, did you write the same way of living together? Is that possible?”

“Since the company is completely reorganized… should it be seen that the existing squad members are separated from each other?”

“The commander is also great.”

Doubts are popping up all over the place.

The battalion commander explained that part as expected.

“Two dormitories per squad, male and female hunters, will be used separately. Of course, during work hours, they move together like a traditional squad.”

“Yes!”

“As the unit is newly reorganized, the affiliation may change.”

“Yes!”

“This is a decision that the division commander made after considering various aspects, and as a demonstration unit, we have to show that the decision is not wrong. Do you understand?”

“all right!”

You have to show that you’re not wrong.

Simply put, it means don’t crash.

‘I have nothing to worry about about that. Because there have been no accidents in the 10 years before the return.’

or get sane.

So training or battles are disrupted.

If so, it happened frequently.

But the case is more serious now. Thinking about going over the wall at night to meet somehow.

“I always waited for the day to train with the female hunters, but now there will be no need for that. huh.”

“Who do you want to be in the squad with?”

“When exactly is the completion?”

After things are sorted out.

The reaction of the male hunters was the same.

It would be a hundred times better to hang out with female hunters than to live with dull male friends.

“Don’t you think it would be fun?”

“Yep. How good they get along with each other.”

“You should have done this right away.”

It was the same with female hunters.

It was not as explicit as the male hunters, but I was looking at it positively.

Of course me too…

‘It’s good. Living together.’

It’s not just because she can get along with female hunters.

In fact, thanks to this reorganization, the efficiency between male and female hunters has improved greatly in training and combat situations.

‘In the past, there were a lot of things that didn’t fit together.’

This is the case only during battalion tactics training.

Breathing was second to none, and the division of duties was not carried out properly.

‘I had no choice but to do that. It was difficult to talk to each other, let alone meet, unless there was something special.’

There is only one problem.

As a new unit is formed, the existing relationship is twisted.

Existing relationships such as predecessors and successors, anyone, or comrades or comrades.

Fortunately I had no problems.

The affiliation remained the same, and the relationship between the predecessors and successors was not twisted at all.

Oh Yeon-jung and Seong Da-kyung were also at the same level as they are now.

‘But when I think about it… the situation might be different from before the return because of the achievements? Aren’t you in the same squad as Yeonjeong’s comrade or Dakyung?’

“Dojin-ah, would you like to come out for a moment?”

that afternoon.

It’s personal maintenance time, so I’m cleaning my guns in the dormitory, and Lieutenant Young So-jin calls me.

“Yes, I understand.”

“The battalion commander is looking for you. with me.”

“What’s wrong?”

“I don’t know. What’s going on?”

Lieutenant Young So-jin tilts her head.

“But Do Jin-ah.”

“Pr. Choi Do-jin.

“Have you thought about that…? I was offered a special contribution site.”

“I don’t know yet.”

“Is not it. It is not an easy decision.”

“I will make a decision as soon as possible.”

“No, no. And the brigade commander over there also said that he gave me time for a full month. Think slowly.”

While we were talking, we arrived at the battalion commander’s office.

smart-“I’m the 1st platoon commander.”

“come in.”

“Loyalty!”

“Uh, come sit down.”

Upon entering, the battalion commander is drinking tea and waiting for Lieutenant Young So-jin.

“Give me some tea.”

“Yes, I will drink green tea.”

“I’ll drink green tea too.”

The attendant goes to make tea right away.

“It’s no different, because I have something to tell you about yesterday.”

“If it happened yesterday…”

“Yes, about our Dojin being offered a special contribution site.”

The battalion commander took a sip of tea and continued his speech.

“It’s a great thing for me too. The fact that his subordinates go to such units.”

“I’m happy too.”

“So would Lieutenant Young.”

“Yes.”

“It’s just, there’s something a little squishy about it.”

“What part are you like?”

“As I said before, it’s good that your soldiers go to such a unit. Of course it will be the same for our Dojin. But that’s right. This should look at the forest, not just the trees, the forest. Uh, listen while drinking tea.”

The watchman puts two cups of green tea in front of Lieutenant Young So-jin and me.

“The reason why people tell us to look at the forest instead of just the trees is that even though the special contribution site looks sweet right now, it can be very bitter and poisonous. Since the mission is a mission, the risk of injury is high, right? I saw a lot of guys who gave up their hunter jobs after I went there.”

“Yes.”

“But if you stay in our unit, at least there is no such risk. Of course, he’ll be a soldier as he is, and he’ll suffer in various ways, but he’s healthy instead, right? Hunter job, no, is there anything more important than health in life? Don’t you?”

“That’s right.”

“I’m not doing this because it’s a pity that my Dojini is leaving. That is the reality.”

“Yes.”

“For reference, you should also know that the special promotion is almost final due to the accumulated performance.”

The special promotion is almost certain.

To be honest, I was kind of expecting it.

‘Cause there’s something I’ve been doing

I was rather surprised in another part.

‘I didn’t know that our Dojin and our Dojin would try to tie me up while doing this.’

They say it’s not because I’m sad that I’m leaving, but it’s probably true.

This is because the achievements of a single soldier are also of great help to a commander such as a battalion commander.

It would be even more so if that performance received an offer for a special contribution site.

“Come on, listen. I’m going to get a corporal with a special promotion. With that momentum, taking a sergeant and taking a promotion test is the same as going to a special contribution site? No. It would be even more beneficial if it went to the second lieutenant altogether. I believe that if our Dojin is talented enough, it will be possible.”

Those words are blatant lies.

If the promotion test is the worst, the promotion test is the worst. Especially the promotion tests that pass to the second lieutenant.

“I don’t know if our Dojini understood what I was saying.”

“Pr. Choi Do-jin! I know what you mean!”

“Yes, yes. But I can’t force you to do what I want. It’s not someone else’s, it’s what the brigade commander said.”

The head of the battalion commander turns to Lieutenant Young So-jin.

“Take care, Lieutenant Young. So that our Dojini can make better choices.”

“all right.”

“I’m just good at talking. You must be busy, so just leave.”

“Loyalty!”

So on the way out of the master’s room.

Lieutenant Young So-jin said with a smile.

“Are you saying Do-jin is already mortal? It seems like yesterday that I passed the promotion test and received a citation.”

“Isn’t it completely confirmed yet?”

“As long as the battalion commander says that, it is certain. Should I prepare to change my combat uniform insignia?”

“haha. But I am the deputy commander.”

“Huh.”

I said scratching the back of my head.

“I’m sorry… I’m just embarrassed for nothing…”

“Why? Oh, because I told you to take care of the special contribution site?”

“Yes···”

“it’s okay.”

Lieutenant Young So-jin glanced at the battalion commander’s office and whispered.

“I’m not going to put any pressure on you anyway. Do-jin, you too, don’t look at the battalion commander for nothing, and do what you want.”

The next day, Tuesday.

The day of the battle swim departure.

It has been raining steadily since morning.

When the roll call was done, it was about drizzle, but it turned to rain as work hours got closer.

“Thanks to the rain, I jumped.”

“Isn’t the sound of rain so good? There is something moody.”

Even if it’s a leap, it’s normal to get annoyed when it rains like this on the board going to the beach, and it’s all bubbly.

it’s bound to be

‘It’s a beach in a dungeon, so it doesn’t matter if it rains or thunderstorms.’

Of course, weather exists in the dungeon as well.

However, unless there is nothing special, the same weather is always repeated 365 days a year.

“Is everyone packed?”

“Yes!”

“Are you excited to go with the 3rd Company?”

“no!”

“It’s all written on your face.”

just before departure.

Lieutenant Young Sojin opens her eyes wide as she sees the squad members singing the Lulu Lala hum.

It’s not that they’re not, but the corners of their mouths are on their ears.

Jim, it’s nothing.

From double bags to toiletries, towels, work clothes, and combat swimsuits.

Of course, combat uniforms are nothing more than the word “combat” attached to the nature of the military.

It’s just a plain sleeveless rash guard.

Below are puffy shorts.

“I hope you don’t lose your spirit as a hunter by going out to play.”

“Yes!”

The road that finally leaves for the dungeon vacation.

The company commander emphasizes the spirit of a hunter.

So, the outfit is also equipped with combat uniforms.

The vehicle left the unit and drove diligently.

Meanwhile, the rain was getting stronger.

However, as soon as they arrived at their destination and entered the dungeon, they disappeared like a lie.

[Enter the dungeon.][The dungeon is completely “cleared”.]

blue sky.

A gentle breeze.

And the emerald sea.

It is as if the painting has been brought into reality.

You’ll be blown away by it

But for me now, there is something more important.

‘That island.’

A small island located on one side of the sea.

There is an amazing item hidden on that island.

‘Tomorrow, there will be a swimming competition across the island. Then you can go get it.’

Good good.

Then until then…

‘I have to play. Absolutely.’

As soon as I got home, I threw the double bag.

By the way, the accommodation is also a part of the dungeon.

The place where the monsters stayed was remodeled in this way.

only lodging

There are more than a dozen renovated facilities such as cafes, pubs, and small marts.

Of course, it continues to operate all year round.

This is because it is usually open to the public.

‘It’s ironic. A space that used to cause damage to humans has become a resort like this.’

I smiled and changed into my battle swimsuit.

And he ran straight down to the beach with the seniors.

“Oh, I think he came.”

“Comrades, come quickly!”

Around that time, female hunters from the 3rd Company also arrived.

He said he had something to deal with in the morning, and it seems he has only come because of that.

with a plop-!

I went into the sea once.

nice.

yes, this is it

“Let’s go, let’s go.”“Hurry up and get the ball! Let’s play.”

After running for a while, everyone looks at something as if they had made a promise.

A long-sleeved rash guard that fits close to the body.

And short pants that show off her thighs.

The female hunters who have completed their conversion are coming down to the sea.

The faces of Seong Da-kyung and Oh Yeon-jung are also visible.

Sgt. Lee Dae-yong looked at him and said.

“Hey, guys.”

“Yes.”

“Last week, there was a relationship with 5 people waiting, so let’s play together. You also want to play with Seong Da-kyung.”

“Are you asking Sgt. Lee Dae-yong?”

“It should be rock-paper-scissors.”

“Lee Dae-yong, please do it. Still, it’s the best.”

“What does it matter to be the best? Reach out all your hands before you rush.”

A brief quarrel ensues.

But there was no need for that.

“Dojin-san, would you like to play with us?”

I made an offer first.

It was also Seong Da-kyung himself.

“Yeah, that’s good.”

“Guys, everyone come this way.”

At Seong Da-kyung’s beckoning, female hunters come closer to our squad.

Of course, there was also Oh Yeon.

The faces of our squad members, including Sgt. Dae-Yong Lee, are filled with anger.

And everyone gives me thumbs up.

“Ladies, what game do you want?”

“What is Lady? greasy.”

“Great…”

“Fop. no. Call me whenever you like.”

The atmosphere was a bit awkward, but thanks to Sgt. Lee Dae-yong, it was relaxed.

After that, I went to the sea and played games.

Then I decided to split the team.

The team with the lowest score will buy a barbecue later.

I became a team with Sgt. Dae-Yong Lee, Yeon-Jeong Oh, and Da-Kyung Seong.

The first game is horse fighting.

After female hunters get on top of male hunters, they push their opponents away.

“Then we have to pair up first… Oh, how about the ladies choosing you?”

“Are we?”

“Yes. It’s no fun if you just turn your palms over.”

“Can I just tell you who I want to work with?”

“It’s not fun to put it into words, so we’ll stand in a straight line. Please stand in front of the person you want to work with.”

“okay.”

A sound that normally wouldn’t even eat a seed is eaten right away.

This is the feeling of the beach.

Soon, they stood in a line and waited for the female hunters to choose.

Hmm···

What if I can’t make a choice?

“I will choose. Please close your eyes for a moment.”

“That’s good. Everyone, close your eyes.”

I even closed my eyes.

The female hunters also seem to be having a lot of fun with this situation.

trudge-

trudge-

The sound of footsteps pierces your ears.

Then it soon subsides.

“I think everyone should open their eyes now.”

I slowly opened my eyes.

“Uh…”

I was wondering what to do if I didn’t get a choice, but not one person was standing there, not one person, who was worried about it.

Both had familiar faces.

Oh Yeon-jung.

and Seong Da-kyung.

They were staring at me, keeping their distance from each other.

“Who will you choose?”
