I Was Discharged From the Hunter Guild

173 – the inevitable result

“Kyaaa… ”

The appearance of the last Abyss falling down after being hit by a bullet in front of their eyes.

Immediately after that, in the eyes of the hunters, the scenery of the place they had longed for all along began to come into their eyes.

“Yeah..this is right..”

“Finally.. finally arrived!”

A clear view of the wide river coming in.

Although ice was frozen everywhere due to the chilly weather… Nevertheless, at this moment, the hunters and soldiers here began to show emotions of deep emotion and joy on their faces.

“This is the Yalu River.. the tip of the Korean Peninsula that has been passed down since the Joseon Dynasty… ”

“Huh…we did it…really…really did it.”

A river flowing proudly with cold ice frozen in it

At first glance, it was just a simple river.

The appearance of this river made those who already knew its meaning feel as if old emotions they had for a long time melted away.

“Thank you all for your hard work. With this, we declare that the restoration of the Yalu River, which was our primary goal, has been successfully completed.”

Just like that, Adjutant Jeong Gong-heo formally declares the success of the operation in deep emotion.

Immediately after that, cheers of joy that had been endured began to emerge from among the soldiers and hunters.

“Wow!!”

“I did it! We finally did it!”

Those who cheer in the emotions of joy and hwanhee.

Some of them took out their cell phones and began to spread this joyous news quickly, either by taking pictures of this historic moment, or by urgently contacting family and friends.

“uh! Mom! I’m at the Yalu River now! look!”

“Look! This is the end of the Korean Peninsula!”

Originally, as a soldier, taking pictures or making video calls like this is prohibited, but now, as this is a historically significant moment, the commanders especially tolerate it.

Above all, as much as they were seized with deep emotion right away, they didn’t feel like breaking the atmosphere at this moment.

And this is, the two people who commanded the entire battle while coming up here.

The same was true of Adjutant Jeong Gong-heo and Adjutant Song Dana.

“In the end, I had to do it.”

“I know. Of course I knew I could do it. When I came here, I felt new, right?”

It’s not empty words, but to be honest, as a commander, there was no particular difficulty in coming this far.

The scale of the battle was a little bit more, but not too big,

The support has gradually decreased, but it was still a tolerable situation.

In terms of difficulty, it was only at the level of successively solving C and B-class missions that had been solved all along.

Of course, in the background, it was because of the contribution of Adjutant Lee Jin-hyun, who dramatically improved the situation to this extent, paying an overwhelming exchange rate of 0 damage to allies and complete annihilation of enemies.

‘In that respect. Honestly, it would have been really nice if Adjutant Lee Jin-hyun had participated in this operation as well..’

‘If only the name had gone up without the need for conducting…’

The two of them feel deep regret for the existence of Adjutant Lee Jin-hyun, who is not here.

This did not mean that he needed the help of Adjutant Jinhyeon Lee in the current situation.

Literally, it meant that I felt sorry and sorry for the fact that there was no one who made the biggest contribution to achieving this achievement in this glorious position.

The restoration of the Yalu River, and the things that will follow after this. All of them knew very well that it would have been impossible without Adjutant Lee Jin-hyeon.

‘They say that the bear does tricks and the owner earns the money… I’m quite sorry that somehow we’ve come to such a situation…’

‘After everything is over, I’ll have to try to compensate in some way.. Of course, there are still mountains to overcome to get there…’

With that thought in mind, the eyes of the two now focused on the follow-up troops arriving one after another,

At the same time, according to the instructions given in advance, they headed to those who started moving to install structures for defense here.

With this, the primary goal was achieved, so first of all, it was necessary to form a defensive line around the Yalu River and strengthen the defenses in preparation for an additional Abyss attack.

Even if an additional advance was ordered later from the upper level, this process had to be done unconditionally in order not to lose the territory that had been obtained.

But..

At this moment, while commanding the installation of the defense line, the two knew.

Even though right now it’s only a momentary voice because I’m caught up in the joy of achieving a long-cherished dream, the fact that sooner or later something big will start here.

‘Problems that were already expected have begun to occur… and now… sooner or later, they will come to the surface in earnest.’

‘It would be great if things went smoothly here, but if not, in the end we will have no choice but to make a choice. That too… so naturally.’

So, even at this moment, the two of them quietly began to focus on what they had to do, with the hope that something possible would not happen in a corner of their hearts.

*

The Yalu River Restoration Operation made the whole of Korea go wild.

The scene at the moment when it ended with success made people feel deep joy and joy.

“Wowaaa!!”

“I finally did it! Our Korean soldiers did it!”

A historical site that evokes deep joy and emotion that cannot even be compared to sports events such as the World Cup or the Olympics.

Unlike those sports, this work directly affects their lives, so the joy was even greater.

“Then can we go to the Yalu River now?”

“It may be impossible right now, but won’t it be like that soon? Even in Pyongyang, they said that they would be able to normalize it within the next half year.”

“No matter how hard it is, I wonder if the Yalu River side will be difficult for a while. There are still quite a few Abyss left in the east.”

“Anyway, with this, except for the vicinity of the Tumen River, the Korean peninsula is almost a well that has been restored. You have done really great things.”

“To be honest, it is largely thanks to the successive victories in the last war, but the army that achieved that victory in the first place is over there.”

As a whole, the people show joy and expectations about the current situation, while at the same time expressing strong feelings for the soldiers who successfully completed the restoration.

However, along with this situation, there was also a sense of anticipation in their hearts.

‘I’ve eaten even the Yalu River… isn’t this the Yodong Reception Hall?’

‘It’s good to keep pushing once you get the momentum. It feels a bit wasteful to stop here like this…’

Although it was a great enough achievement to have marched this far, there were quite a few people who felt a subtle anticipation for this ideal.

Feelings that began to arise because the speed of the advance to the Yalu River was faster than expected.

And this was the same for the high-ranking people who were sitting in the capital at this moment and fighting in the mud over whether or not to provide additional support to their allies.

“Are you really going to keep doing this? It’s too wasteful to end the advance like this! Please stop that stubbornness for the sake of the country!”

“If you break your stubbornness first, we will take it positively too. If you allow additional troop support from the Eastern Front, we will also solve the logistical problem.”

“Do you think the troops are enough now? Who doesn’t know that the reason why you’re trying to reinforce more eastern forces here is to increase your achievements?”

“We see that it is impossible to advance further than this without additional troops. Know that, because you don’t want to waste your resources on something that will fail.”

“If you’re going to come out like that, we can’t tolerate any more troop movement than this!”

“Yeah, do whatever you want. If the soldiers die of starvation like this, it’s all your responsibility!”

In the end, they only put forward their own arguments, but the meeting ended with a catastrophe

From the Lee family’s point of view, there was a high possibility that they would be pushed back in the power struggle if they did not add a few more people to the army that had pushed up to the Yalu River at this opportunity, and the emerging powers were also desperately opposed to this as they knew this fact.

In the case of the neutral faction, as always, the situation is to keep silent while watching.

The meeting continued endlessly without making any concessions to each other, and in the end, their discussions flowed in vain again.

With the conclusion that there is nothing to be gained by increasing the opponent’s strength here.

And it comes naturally…

To those who have maintained their last patience while waiting for support all the time

It ended up forcing me to make a choice.
