I Returned, But My Power is the Same

Chapter 58 one star

“Ah···! sorry.”

“You and Jiyoung, and me and Dojin move two by two like this.”

So-called Young So-jin is right.

Of course, it is strange that Yeon-jeong Oh decides, but it is also strange that the subject is me.

‘When a private and a private are tied together, a lieutenant and a corporal are tied together, the picture is a little different.’

It’s not just these patrols.

The same is true when setting up border work.

Lee Byeong unconditionally enters with a Corporal or higher. unless it’s a special case.

“Then let’s move on.”

“Yes!”

Oh Yeon-jeong disappears with Corporal Female Hunter first.

His expression was slightly frozen because of the previous situation.

Of course, it is clearly Oh Yeon-jung’s fault.

Even if it’s just running around the unit, a mission is a mission.

Because he acted like he was going out to play, saying he was going with someone.

“Let’s go too.”

“Yes.”

However, it is a bit odd.

In the 10 years before the return, I had never seen Lieutenant Young So-jin speak so coldly like he just did.

He is a person who never treats you coldly, even if he is stiff.

I shrugged and followed Lieutenant Young So-jin.

“Isn’t it boring to keep patrolling?”

“no.”

“Really? Are you repeating it all week?”

“Yes. There is no room for boredom when I think of it as protecting other soldiers and civilians outside the unit.”

“Answer with FM too.”

Lieutenant Young So-jin said with a laugh.

“I am very bored.”

“Yes?”

“Why?”

“No, I’m surprised that the deputy platoon commander said something like that.”

“I’m also a bit of an FM, aren’t I?”

“Not a little, but a lot . . .”

“Did you?”

Lieutenant Young So-jin’s face suddenly becomes depressed.

“The kids will hate me.”

“no. Everyone likes it. And not other times, only during training? I don’t think you should do FM or anything with that.”

“Then I’m happy.”

Lieutenant Young Sojin puts his hand on his chest and sighs in relief.

When I look at it like this, I want to see how that sword-like figure comes out during training or battle.

No match at all.

“But Do Jin-ah.”

Lieutenant Young So-jin calls me as if remembering something.

“Private Choi Do-jin.”

“You became very close with him earlier.”

“If it was her earlier… Oh, are you talking about comrade Oh Yeon-jung?”

“Huh.”

“Yeah, we’ve become friends.”

“How did you become friends?”

“That comrade, somehow, has a cheerful personality. Even on the first day, they talk to me first.”

“okay?”

“Yes. It’s fun to be together.”

“Oh, is it fun to be with you?”

Second Lieutenant Young So-jin said, ‘That’s right, it’s good to be friendly’ and shakes his head.

“Does the deputy platoon leader have fun with someone?”

“Yes.”

“May I ask who you are?”

“Family or friends?”

“Hey, isn’t that obvious?”

“You too.”

“Yes?”

“It’s fun to be with you. I think he treats me more comfortably than other soldiers.”

Ah.That’s the sound.

There are many reasons why I treat Lieutenant Young So-jin more comfortably than other soldiers.

10 years before the return.

It’s because I’ve been living there with Lieutenant Young So-jin for quite some time.

Of course, it was difficult for me at first.

Especially when I was sick, I couldn’t speak properly to my parents because it was difficult.

But isn’t time the end of it?

As time passed, I was able to treat it like it is now.

“If you treat me too comfortably, you may lose your manners, so I will take good care of it.”

“Nope. Don’t control it.”

Lieutenant Young So-jin said in a firm tone.

“It’s good to be more comfortable with you. I want to have a close relationship with the soldiers.”

***

The next day, Friday.

The five waiting schedule was almost finished by patrolling the jurisdiction once again.

It’s past 16 o’clock, so if you go back to the unit as it is, the shift will take place right away.

Whoa.

The end is coming.

“As soon as I take my shift, I have to run to the game room.”

“I spread and fall asleep.”

The soldiers are already excited to play.

me too

For today, I want to take a little rest.

“But the new barracks were built around here, wasn’t it?”

“It’s a bit vague to say it’s near here because it’s in a remote place, but geographically it’s true.”

“Isn’t it almost when it was finished?”

“Yeah, I heard it’s been a while.”

On the way back to the unit in the vehicle.

The soldiers are chatting while looking at a certain site in the distance.

‘The new barracks being built over there… are where the reorganization begins.’

Perhaps there will be a story about him soon.

As the soldiers say, the completion is not far away, and since it is a major project, it cannot be exploded blindly.

I’ve already experienced it, so it’s dull and I’m really confused.

‘I set it apart like that on purpose, but I didn’t really expect it to be put together in one place…’

Meanwhile, the vehicle was getting closer and closer to the unit.

As I was chatting with the soldiers, at some point I was already entering the guardhouse.

After that, it was obvious.

Five standby shifts were made with the following squads.

“Everyone worked hard all week.”

“You have worked hard!”

“Thanks to the 1st Company soldiers for following along.”

“no!”

“It’s just dissolution.”

“Thank you!”

Now is the time to go back to your own dormitory.

Oh Yeon-jeong approached cautiously.

“Sir.”

“Yes.”

“Can I give you my comrade’s number?”

“sure.”

“really?”

“What a difficult thing.”

Oh Yeon-jung holds out her note and her pen.

5 This is because cell phones were not available during standby, so they did not bring them at all.

“Hey, I’ll call you right away when I get back to the dormitory.”

“Yes.”

As I write down my number and hand it over, I feel a gaze looking at us from the side.

It was Seong Da-kyung.

Ah.

Come to think of it, I haven’t exchanged numbers with Seong Da-kyung yet.

“Comrade, do you have any notes left?”

“Yes, here.”

“A little pen.”

“Yes.”

I wrote down my number again.

And handed it to Seong Da-kyung.

“Dakyung, this is my number. We haven’t even exchanged numbers yet.”

“…”

“Wow, wasn’t it so absurd?”

“No, no, no.”

Seong Da-kyung quickly receives the message.

And he puts it right in the pocket of his battle suit as if he must not lose it.

“I should have given it first… I’m sorry.”

“no.”

“I will contact you as soon as I enter.”

“Yes.”

I returned the pen to Yeonjung Oh.

A face that has something to say.

But when he saw Seong Seong Da-gyeong, he immediately shut his mouth.

It seems that the work at Hunter Mart is still taking a while.

Hmm.

The atmosphere was a bit chilly back then.

***

Leaving the headquarters building, we returned to the dormitory of the 1st Company.

As soon as the seniors came in, they threw away their equipment and stretched out on the bed.

This is because resting with equipment on and resting with a bare body are different no matter how much you wait.

So did I.

He immediately changed into his active clothes and lay down on a large chair.

Whoa.

this is heaven

But that happiness didn’t last long.

“rest!”

“Dojin.”

“Pr. Dojin Choi!”

Suddenly, the company commander entered our dormitory.

And he found me.

“Look at me for a second. hurry.”

“Yes!”

Inside, the words ‘No, now that the 5th waiting period is over and you are resting, why are you calling me?’ lingered, but my body was leaving the dormitory as if it were natural.

After leaving the dormitory, the company commander hastily moved forward.

I then asked

“What’s wrong?”

“You know the 5th Hunter Special Forces Brigade?”

“Uh… yes.”

“There the brigade commander called you.”

“Yes?!”

The 5th Hunter Special Forces Brigade commander is… a one-star, right?

“I was told to bring you, too, so I don’t know the details. Let’s go.”

“Yeah… yeah yeah.”

I’ve seen it a few times before the return.

Starred people.

But it’s the first time I’ve seen him from a distance at any divisional athletic meet, and it’s the first time I’ve ever been called.

Why the hell is One Star calling me… Wait.

‘no way.’

As for other one-stars, there is one thing to point out if you are the brigade commander of the 5th Hunter Special Forces Brigade.

I swallowed a gulp.

Suddenly, a cold sweat runs down both sides of the temple.

“Loyalty!”

“Oh, are you here?”

Eventually, they arrived at the battalion center in the unit.

There, I met a man who really had a star on his hat and epaulettes.

‘You’re the real 5th Hunter Special Forces Brigade commander… that’s what happens.’

Next to us stood our battalion commander and the division’s operations staff, who suddenly attacked and unpacked the monster pockets last weekend.

And next to him stood a sergeant in commando combat uniform.

The rank is Sergeant, but looking at her appearance, her age looks similar to mine.

‘If I enlisted as a general hunter, I would be a private like myself. Did you go to the special contribution site and become a sergeant?’

I went to the special contribution site, but why did you become a sergeant?

Since a special contribution site is a job with a risky mission as collateral, it is treated accordingly.

by the way···

Even if the battalion commander is like that, the division’s operational staff and commando sergeant?What kind of combination is this?

“Loyalty!!!”

I raised the salute.

Louder than the shouts from the guerrilla field.

“Are you Private Choi Do-jin?”

“That’s right!!!”

“I like your voice.”

“thank you!!!”

“It’s late, so I’ll explain later, and first, show me your skills.”

suddenly?

To say that, the person who said that is a one-star.

Without knowing the English language, I picked up a sword for fighting.

Then the commando sergeant stands in front of me.

“Let’s try a match with that friend.”

“all right···!!!”

“It has to be done by force. He’s a pretty good friend.”

I can see it

His physique and the energy he exudes are no joke.

And those eyes looking at me.

very brutal

‘It’s my first time competing with a special contribution site. Even that, love.’

It’s my first time, so I’m not worried.

rather expected.

I think I will be able to properly test the power I have gained so far.

“Let’s get started.”

“Yes!”

Obviously, I was resting in the dormitory after the 5th waiting period, but when I came to my senses, I was preparing for a special contribution site and a match in front of One Star.

how is this going now

Tadat-

I just ran out

The special contribution site is also running straight away with a sword.

no harm to each other

This is because he uses a sword for sparring that has no lethality.

But it doesn’t hurt, so it’s clear who wins and loses.

There will be differences in stats and skills.

Scratch!

It was the same with our Dalian.

The difference was evident from the first sum.

“Oh.”

And it was me who had the upper hand, not the commando sergeant.

The body of the commando sergeant was pushed back more and more.

This made one thing clear.

The power I’ve gained in the past has completely changed me.

“Even if we are of the same age or enlistment period, the level of combat would be different if we were a noncommissioned officer in the special forces. Private Choi Do-jin That friend, you seem more qualified than I heard.”

The voice of the brigade commander is faintly heard outside the dungeon.

I left it behind and finished the match first.

Forget!

To put it bluntly, it was easy.

I was overpowered in every way.

“Stop it. There is nothing more to see.”

“Heh heh, heh heh.”

When the match is stopped, the sergeant who was the opposite side breathes out harshly.

The way you look at me is completely different from before.

“Private Choi, this is no joke. I’ll see you soon.”

And leaving the dungeon leaving something meaningful.

“Dojin-ah, come this way.”

“Pr. Choi Do-jin! Yes, I understand!”

With the commando sergeant behind him, he followed the company commander’s hand gestures and stood in front of the brigade commander again.

Dalian didn’t tremble at all, but I’m still sweating profusely in this place.

The brigade commander said with a broad smile.

“Do you know why I called you?”

“I do not know!”

“That’s what the operations chief said. There is one good soldier here. That’s Janelle. It’s better than what I’ve heard when I come and see it in person.”

The brigade commander looks at me with a serious face.

“Hey, don’t you want to run to the special contribution site? From my point of view, he seems like a perfect fit for our unit.”
