3 – Being together was dirty, let’s never meet again
sweetest water in the world
It was said to be the spring water he found right before dying in the middle of the desert.
The fruit of the name of freedom received after suffering extreme exploitation.
At this moment… I was getting a taste of it.
“I’m discharged! I’m discharged! I’m finally able to get out of this crappy place! I don’t have to live face-to-face with those bitches anymore!”
Originally, even when I was graduating from the military academy, I had the idea that tears of blood would flow from my eyes the moment I was discharged.
It was natural.
As a soldier, being discharged is like being fired.
As much as I entered this world with the goal of surviving to the end and earning a star, I had made countless promises that I would persevere through any difficulties.
but this moment.
As of now, at the age of only 29, I am packing my bags for the discharge.
Instead of bloody tears, the sound of a humming song was flowing out automatically.
If tears flowed at this moment, they were probably not tears of despair and frustration. It must have been tears of joy and joy.
‘Is this just how the sergeants feel when they are discharged? No.. I’m sure it won’t be as good as this one. You could even count the days of your discharge, but I spent every day in hell without any promise!’
With that kind of thought in mind, I pack my things at the fastest pace since I’ve lived.
My room, located in the guild annex, looked like a warehouse and was piled full of things, but I didn’t have much to take with me.
Regardless of work, the various items and firearms that you carry as a soldier are of course left behind.
Now that I have been discharged due to occupational reasons, I didn’t have to bring a military uniform as I didn’t have to go to the reserve army or civil defense.
‘No, but I have to carry military boots first, because he’s a good looking guy with decent hiking boots.’
In the end, all you need to bring is your boots and dog tags. Other than that, I squeezed out the time I didn’t have and read a book, a diary, and a cell phone that I always carry around.
In addition, I decided not to touch the instant coffee or biscuits piled up in the corner of the room in the sense that I should take care of them myself.
After taking care of things like that,
I slowly turned my gaze towards the things that occupied the most weight in the room for the last time.
It is dozens of notebooks and books piled up like a mountain.
The results of my three years of organizing the habits and strategies of the Abyss from the standpoint of fighting the war, and devising countermeasures and tactics in response.
So, about 70% of this room was filled with tasks and data that I had written by hand while living as an adjutant.
One by one, my hands are stained.
At the same time, things that made me feel proud as if it showed that I had lived as hard as I did.
But… that said, I had absolutely no intention of taking this.
The quantity is also the quantity, and it was because I had already concluded that I did not care about this part anymore.
However, I had no intention of cleaning it up or getting rid of it with my own hands.
It wasn’t for the same reason that he was considerate of his successor.
Anyway, the expert that our benevolent guild master year brings must be more competent than me.
I didn’t have the jaw to need the materials I had made up to scratch for such a person.
The biggest reason is that there was no loyalty to go to this country even after cleaning up.
In addition, from my point of view, it was a bonus that it was a bit difficult to get rid of them myself, as they were things that I had put together after struggling for three years.
So, I decided to leave all the materials I had organized over the past three years, put the last remaining luggage in a box, and wrapped it tightly with blue tape.
The weight of the box was so light compared to the weight of what was left behind.
It was as if it foreshadowed the free and happy life that I would face in the future.
So, I left the room that no longer belonged to me, holding the box, without any regrets, and arrived in front of the camp exit shortly after.
With this, my military life is completely over.
In front of this, only a new path as a civilian remained.
Feeling the thrill of that fact once again.
I raised my voice for the last time and shouted at those girls who were in a place where they could not be heard.
“It was dirty being together! Let’s never meet again!”
The C-class hunters who were guarding the entrance seemed to flinch slightly at those words.
After showing them a bright smile for the last time, I took out my phone and escaped the guild group chat room and immediately blocked them.
Of course, I didn’t forget to upload a video in the guild chat room right before I left.
A scene from an anime I watched as a child.
The heroine in a dress is waving her hand and shouting…
That famous video that I really wanted to try at least once.
*
“yes?”
“what’s the matter?”
“Wait.. what is this?”
Three or four hunters refining weapons in the dormitory.
B-class hunters belonging to the 28th Hunter Guild, they put on a dazed expression for a while at the incomprehensible video and information displayed on their phones.
– Goodbye everyone! I throw off all the shackles and shackles of this world and go in search of my own happiness! Everyone be happy too~~!-
-Jinhyun Lee left the room-
A message that popped up in the group chat room where all the members of the 28th Guild entered.
It took longer than expected for people to figure out what that meant.
“Why did your adjutant leave?”
“I don’t know. Maybe you blocked them, but they weren’t even invited.. what’s happening all of a sudden?”
“The adjutant blocked it? You’re not the kind of person.. what the hell is this..”
Adjutant Lee Jin-hyeon, who had practically managed the guild chat room and delivered notices unrelated to military secrets.
The fact that he left the room without any notice, leaving only a video signifying farewell, made not only them here, but also most of the hunters in the unit feel embarrassed.
And.. Among them, those who reacted sensitively to this situation and expressed deep concern were A-class hunters who had a rough idea of the internal situation of the guild officials.
“Hey… I can’t believe this.”
“No.. I don’t think that would be right?”
“Honestly, me too, you guys know it because you’ve seen it at least once, right? How those S-class hunters are dealing with the adjutant.”
The scene of adjutant Lee Jin-hyun’s hardship, which he often saw when visiting the executive office for reporting and other work.
Even though they were A-class hunters, they couldn’t say anything against the S-class hunters, who were superiors and had the power to overwhelm them at the same time, but they also had eyes, so they were aware of it.
About how those four executives are treating Adjutant Lee Jin-hyun.
“I knew it would explode someday, but no matter how, did you get discharged so suddenly?”
“Ah, honestly, you lasted a long time, didn’t you? If I were like that, I would have hit him in that situation in less than four days instead of four years.”
“Well… that’s true, too.”
“Are you going to quit dealing with those bitches? maybe me It wasn’t a video of leaving the company, but it evaporated right after pouring insults on each other?”
A-class hunters who express sympathy for the time being while feeling embarrassed by such a sudden discharge from their adjutant.
However, in their hearts, instead of worrying about Lee Jin-hyun, worries about their future work slowly began to bloom.
“Hey.. but if the adjutant goes like this, our 28th guild… what will happen in the future?”
“What..”
“Yeah, of course…”
“… ”
What to say next…
As class A hunters, they couldn’t bear to speak.
In a way, they are more frequent on-site than S-class hunters.
In their heads… even though they didn’t want to think about it, there was a picture that came to mind automatically.
And about this.
Among them, the one with the most direct personality brought out a word that accurately represented their thoughts.
“What the hell are we doing?”
