“haha! I really like people these days. That old engineer, and so are you. Hey, little sister! Did you try to come first before the engineer did?”
Now that his identity has been revealed from the other side, the captain who has been pointed out hastily saluted. The general nodded his head with satisfaction.
“If you are a captain, you will be able to use your own power, but if you have guns on all sides, you have to be careful! It is dangerous if the qigong is not yet mature!”
“… It is an honour.”
As I read my thoughts, it wasn't really a fight, but the captain nodded. The general, who was looking at the captain with delight, looked at me, fiddling with his chin.
“And my brother! It takes just as much courage to step out as it takes courage to stop! Well done! Man, even if you were ten years younger, you would still be my disciple!”
He seemed to be taking good care of me.
great. Let's be more flattering here. The father-in-law of a person he acknowledges comes closer to him more realistically than to someone he's never met for the first time.
“If I go back to 10 years ago, I will somehow go to the general and receive instruction.”
“Hey. You know how to make people feel good! ha ha ha!”
The general smiled innocently and patted my shoulder. The general then turned his head to look at the old engineer.
“Noikjang is great! Cancer, those knights don't have as much ambition as yours. What a pity!”
“Ahh. It's an honor, General. It is a great honor to meet you like this… .”
The old engineer looked like he was going to die of heart failure at any moment. He could not breathe because he was confused, but he praised the general with a sparsely falling voice.
“Even after seeing the one who condemned the kingdom, I’m only sorry that I can’t give you anything… .”
“What. Leave it!”
The general waved his hand as if burdened.
“It’s condemnation. I didn't really have a cause. Just, you know? It is no wonder that the things that are said to be hard work are not only sought by the weak. Hey, I was just trying to show you a taste of a real duel… . To be honest, I was just thinking of smashing it. Just in time, there was a coup d'état and I accidentally became a general.”
He did not conspire with the military.
The military just jumped on board in his duel.
On the contrary, the coup d'état took place as episodic as an individual's whim, and the kingdom collapsed without being able to resist.
Of course, among them, Patraxion's achievement in fighting a street battle that was unfavorable to the soldiers alone was the greatest.
“However, that fact cannot disparage the general’s duel. It is an undeniable truth that we marched alone from the outskirts to the inner city and fought a hundred duels.”
“It’s so burdensome that even the general can’t eat it. Anyone who hears it would think that I alone destroyed the kingdom. Well, anyway! My identity has been revealed!”
After speaking, the general jumped up. In keeping with him and his pace, Colonel Gand robbed the spear and followed him.
“ruler! It was a fun trip, and now it's time to part ways. I have work to do.”
“Oh, did you say vacation?”
“It’s just a vacation spot, actually volunteering. What I threw away wrong came back a little big. Shouldn't I be taking out the trash I threw away?”
The general, who had spoken up to that point, muttered, clicking his tongue.
“Ts. I thought he had enough talent and had a good attitude. I also don't know what a person will be like.”
As a result of reading General Patraxion's memory, the 'they' he seeks to stop are vicious criminals with asymmetrical powers.
Consisting of one man, one woman, and two men, strong men outside the standard that even the military could not stop. It is said that the damage from fighting was so great that a monster, which was called 'active avoidance of engagement', was roaming the military to the extent that it was actually ordered to flee.
At this point, anyone would expect, but the ones I know are clear.
But why are you here?
“Anyway, I have to get off here soon. here… Hey Gand. Where should I go?”
At that moment, Colonel Gand, who took out the map and unfolded it, answered.
“Visit the garrison near Falcaris to get information and gather equipment.”
“great. anyway. it's near here. Now is the time for us to part.”
The general jumped off without any regrets before we even said our goodbyes. Colonel Gandh followed in his footsteps.
Obviously the meta-conveyor belt was running pretty fast, and when he landed on the belt, all the speed seemed to disappear. There were no unsightly things that rolled on the ground or staggered. The general and his lieutenant walked calmly as if they had jumped off a small hill.
“Ahh… General.”
The old engineer watched the general's back without hesitation.
The distance had gone away in an instant, to the point of being invisible. I spoke to the captain.
“Big. I've met all of General Pataxion in my life. He’s a better person than I thought.”
The captain answered slowly.
“… Positive. However, I am concerned about minor rule violations. You used your vacation arbitrarily.”
“What are you going to do? He's a man who overturned the country by saying he was wrong. It may be that I have killed my temper now.”
“Positive.”
It was like the wind. He was a nice guy, and the job went smoothly. I also heard about his old friends.
By the way, the returner is going to destroy the military this time. Why are you wandering around in the military announcing all your actions?
Well, if you still have an idea, you won't be able to confidently walk to the capital. You will never meet me.
If it's only half a day like this, Amittengrad, once you get there, you'll be told where you're headed again.
Suddenly I'm curious what are you doing
***
The people of Falcaris, the stronghold city, realized that fear and curiosity are emotions that can coexist.
A few hours ago, the alarm went off. The dry voice signaled the terrifying fact that the heinous man crawling out of Tantalus was now moving in a straight line towards Amittengrad, and that Falkharis existed along the way.
Some quick-witted people ran away, and those who couldn't afford to escape were locked in the room with their bodies bent.
Please pray that the heinous criminals are not pleasure killers.
it wasn't
“Give me the biggest room. I’m going to rest.”
“De, I’ll give it to you!”
“How much is it?”
“yes? For non-military travelers during official duties, a large room is 1500 alke per night… .”
“ruler.”
The supply officer, who was ready to die and defended his position, was given an alchemy coin worth 10,000 alke. The supply officer didn't even think about giving the change, and while he was silent, Shay held out his hand.
“It’s a prepayment. If something is broken, hit it with it.”
The supply officer, like it or not, was faithful to his duty. The key to the large room fell on Shay's palm.
The butterfly sent a tribute to Shay, who had unpacked in the room.
“Nyaa. Come on today, come on today, give me a tribute!”
“… .”
Shay silently took out today's magic vinegar and put it in the butterfly's mouth. Tirkanjaka looked at it carefully and said.
“You are slowly losing your sincerity towards the king of cats. Is that bothering you?”
“… Oh no, it's still fine. just.”
“just?”
Shay drenched the magic herb and muttered as she watched the delightfully chirping butterfly.
“Because I can’t take care of butterflies forever. There will come a day when you will have to part with the butterfly. Then what do I do?”
“It’s a really silly problem.”
Tirkanjaka clicked his tongue, adjusted his posture, and gave Shay heartfelt advice.
“What do you mean you can be responsible for? A creature with its own feet walks its way. It's not your responsibility to decide which path you take after you leave. You should be able to let it flow in moderation… .”
It was definitely advice that contained years of experience, but while speaking, Tirkanzaka remembered someone and bowed her head gloomily. She actually went her own way and she was chasing after her.
This time, Shay offered heartfelt condolences.
“it's okay. In the beginning, he didn't see his flaws very well.”
“… Thank you so much! So, how long are you going to be in a room with only girls? When you've finished the work, go out!”
Tirkanjaka shot sharply. Shay moaned a little and looked around the room.
In fact, there's no need for Shay to stay in this room for a long time. No one here is a good match, and he wouldn't even be able to scratch unless he was a military officer.
As long as Tirkanjakara had a reliable history, I wasn't worried about where they might go.
But it's annoying to be treated like a man all the time. Shay pondered whether she should reveal her gender gradually. She's a bit extreme, but showing her naked will clear up the misunderstanding.
The problem is, how do I naturally show bare skin… .
Since Tirkanjaka was so conservative, it was difficult to seize the opportunity. It was a time when Shay was contemplating whether to visit the hot springs anytime.
Feeling an unfamiliar presence, Tirkanjaka turned her head.
“We have a guest, shay… . Hmmm? You come all the way to the door and you just go back.”
“ah. I think I know who it is.”
When Shay opened the door, there was only a letter arranged neatly in place of the guest, waiting for her. Shay grabbed her letter, stroking her nose.
“They are resistance bastards.”
“When you say resistance, do you mean people like the revival army?”
“Exactly. They seem to have contacted us after hearing our story.”
“A story? Have we not come out of the abyss?”
“When you came, you took down five companies and destroyed two of the Warrant bases of all things. I guess the rumors have spread.”
Rash the Undead and former Lieutenant Colonel Kalis made the decision to move the military in a far-round direction. Rash said goodbye to the teacher and walked away.
Going to find Hughes was his primary goal, but apart from that, Shay was a character that values efficiency. As she passed by, when she saw the lord base of all things, she would be lifted up and smashed, and on her way back.
“The news is too fast. It took me a while to get here.”
“Because the military has signal soldiers and communication devices, and other places have come up with their own numbers.”
Shay smirked and tore up the letter. Tirkanzaka was puzzled by his decisive attitude without even a single hesitation.
“It’s weird. I thought you hated the military country very much.”
“right. I hate the military.”
Shay snapped a finger. Flames rose and enveloped the letter.
Shay muttered as she saw the letter that burned and disappeared without ashes left.
“More than anything else, I hate that there is no alternative.”
Shay once tried to bring down the army. Because the damn country of the military has always been Shay's first enemy, and it seemed like he could only move forward by overcoming it.
And it was successful.
After thorough preparation and several rounds of hard work, Shay destroyed the army once. She became the hero of the newly created free republic, like the savage Patraxion.
And left the country with a bitter aftertaste.
After that, he never again set foot on the lands of a free republic.
throughout all rounds.
“Romanticists without measures, remnants of the old days, just haters of the military. Resistance is the aggregation of these three groups. A country drawn by people with different births and dreams… A world where everyone is equal and happy.”
Upon hearing Shay's words, Tirkanzaka realized their essence and nodded.
Thinking that the human group does not change even after several hundred years have passed.
“It’s an ideal theory without an answer.”
“right. Everyone has a goal and no way has been laid. Even if they maintain the status quo, there is no way they can… .”
Exactly, I saw it firsthand.
They decided to free the laborers who had been overworked and hire workers instead of them.
Especially the most important meta-conveyor belt. Only there, the key facility of the military, had to maintain the status quo. It was the minimum condition for running the country.
But it took less than a month for the belt to stop.
The meta-conveyor belt is a convenient, useful, and indispensable facility, but it has the problem of missing a cargo for more than a week at a stopover. If there is even a single mistake, that much burden is put on the country.
A week's disappearance, delayed schedules, rising costs and bottoming trust.
The workers, realizing the importance of this job, took the belt hostage and demanded better treatment. You can't even blame the workers. No matter how much the pay was, the labor was actually murderous.
The kind country that came out of denying the military was dragged around by them.
There is oil in the veins. The whole country creaked.
Shay, who has ruined the country as a result, sees the country that has changed a year later. He left the country deeply heartbroken.
“… Rather than entrusting it to them, you can just pick and eat the warrants of all things and leave the rest alone. And the military doesn't bother me that much as long as I understand the principle of action.”
“Shayner, you mean you have figured out how to do them?”
“Of course. look. We are heading to the capital openly, but the state is not doing all it can to stop it.”
“Come to think of it, this is an unusual case. If you are marching towards the royal castle, you will have to concentrate all your power to stop it.”
The reason was so simple and so futile. When Shay found out about that in the last episode, how disappointed she was.
So, how much more hated the military.
“We broke five companies, but didn't kill a single one. This is where the military has come to a conclusion. It's too strong to subdue, but the four of us are too trivial to focus our power. It's not right for me, so I'm actively neglecting it.”
Active avoidance of engagement. Don't fight at all, because even if you fight, it doesn't make sense.
It was a judgment like a country crazy about efficiency.
“If you are going to make a life-threatening decision, at least three of the six generals will gather and come to you. If there is a loss after clumsily inputting power, it is a national loss. However, since you can't take away the power of the sixth fortress from that position, unless it's the sixth fortress that has nothing to do, it won't come to you… .”
That was when Shay mumbled.
Aji pricked her ears. The butterfly frowned and raised her fur.
Just like the beast, Shay and Tirkanzaka felt the blatant force and stood up.
Shay muttered with a face that something was coming.
“Come. A succulent with nothing to do.”
The best weapon is gun scythe.
