Omniscient First-Person’s Viewpoint - Chapter 152
EP.152 A story from a distant place. Sword and Spear – 1
“Ha ha! I really like people these days. Like that old sapper, and you too. Hey little sister! Didn’t you try to go first before the sapper did?”
Now that his identity has been revealed from the other side, the captain who was pointed out hastily saluted. The general nodded in satisfaction.
“If you are Daewi, you may have the power of your own, but if you have guns everywhere, you have to be careful! It’s dangerous if the qi gong isn’t fully ripe yet!”
“…It is an honour.”
After reading my thoughts, I didn’t really go out to fight, but the captain nodded at first. The general, who had been looking at the captain happily, looked at me while twiddling his chin.
“And brother! It takes as much courage to stop as courage to step out! good job! Hey, even if you were 10 years younger, I would take you as my disciple!”
It seemed to take good care of me.
good. Let’s be more flattering here. The flattery of a person you recognize comes much more realistically than a person you’ve never met for the first time.
“If I go back to 10 years ago, I will somehow go to the general and receive instruction.”
“Yeah. My brother knows how to make people feel good! ha ha ha!”
The general gave me an immature smile and patted my shoulder. Then the general turned and looked at the old sapper.
“No Ikjang is great! Cancer Those knights don’t have the same spirit as you. What a pity!”
“iced coffee. It’s an honor, sir. It is a great honor to meet you…”
The old sapper looked like he was about to die of heart failure. He couldn’t breathe because he was so embarrassed, but he praised the general with a voice that dropped infrequently.
“It’s just a pity that I can’t give you anything after seeing the one who condemned the kingdom…”
“What. Leave it there!”
The general waved his hand as if burdened.
“Condemn. I didn’t really have a purpose. you just know It’s because it’s not that only the weak are looking for things that use strength. I really wanted to show you the taste of a duel. A coup just happened and he became a general without a hitch.”
He did not collude with the military.
The military just jumped on his duel.
On the contrary, because the coup d’état took place as convulsively as an individual’s whim, the kingdom collapsed without being able to resist.
Of course, among them, Patraxion’s achievement was the greatest, as he single-handedly fought street battles that were unfavorable to soldiers.
“However, that fact won’t disparage the general’s duel. It is an undeniable truth that I marched alone from the outskirts to the inner city and fought a hundred duels.”
“It’s so burdensome that even a general can’t eat it. Anyone who hears it will think I destroyed the kingdom alone. well anyways! My identity was discovered!”
After speaking, the general jumped up. Keeping pace with him, Colonel Gand also shook his spear and followed.
“ruler! It was a pleasant trip, and now it’s time to say goodbye. I have work to do.”
“Ah, did you say vacation?”
“It’s just a holiday, it’s actually volunteer work. The thing I threw away wrong came back a little bigger. Shouldn’t I take care of the trash I threw away?”
Having said that, the general clicked his tongue and muttered.
“Tsk. I thought I had enough talent and a good mindset. I don’t know what people will be like.”
As a result of reading General Patraxion’s memories, ‘they’ he goes to stop are vicious criminals with asymmetric power.
Out-of-the-standard strongmen that even an army composed of one man, one woman, and two beastmen could not stop. It is said that the damage during the fight is so great that a monster is roaming the country to the extent that an actual escape order called ‘active avoidance of engagement’ comes down.
At this point, everyone would expect it, 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?”
Colonel Gand, who had just pulled out a map and opened it, answered.
“Visit the garrison near Falcaris to get information and gather equipment.”
“good. anyway. that’s near here. It is time for us to part.”
The general jumped down without hesitation before we even greeted him. Colonel Gand also followed him.
Apparently the meta conveyor belt was running at a fairly high speed, but all speed seemed to disappear when he landed on the belt. There was no unsightly rolling or stumbling on the ground. The general and his lieutenant walked as calmly as if they had jumped off a small hill.
“Ah… General.”
The old sapper watched the general’s back.
The distance was so far away that it was almost impossible to see. I spoke to the captain.
“Big. I met General Patraxion all my life. He’s a better person than I thought.”
The captain replied slowly.
“…Positive. I’m just worried about minor rule violations. You used your vacation voluntarily.”
“What are you going to do? He is a person who turned the country upside down for being bad. It may be that now is rather a temper tantrum.”
“Positive.”
It was like the wind. He was a nice guy and it made the job go smoothly. I also heard of old friends there.
By the way, the regressor is going to destroy the military this time round. Why are you roaming around in the military, announcing all your whereabouts?
Well, if you still have thoughts, you won’t be able to walk confidently to the capital. You will never meet me.
If we go like this for half a day, when we get to Amitengrad, we’ll hear the news about where we’re going.
I’m suddenly curious what are you trying to do
***
The people of the stronghold city of Falkaris realized that fear and curiosity are emotions that can coexist.
An alarm went off a few hours ago. The dry voice announced the terrifying fact that the felon who had crawled out of Tantalus was now moving in a straight line toward Amittengrad, and that Falcaris was in its path.
A few quick-witted ones ran away, and those who couldn’t afford to run away hid themselves in the room with their bodies bent down.
Please pray that the heinous criminals are not pleasure killers.
It wasn’t.
“Give me the biggest room. I am going to rest.”
“I’ll give it to you!”
“How much is it?”
“yes? For non-military travelers during official duties, the large room is 1,500 alke per night…”
“Now.”
The Quartermaster, who was prepared to die and defend his position, received 10,000 alke coins. While the Quartermaster was absentmindedly not even thinking about giving change, Shay held out his hand.
“It’s an advance. If anything is broken, fix it.”
The Quartermaster was faithful to his duty, whether he liked it or not. The key to the large room fell into Shay’s palm.
A butterfly snatched a tribute to Shay, who had unpacked his luggage in the room.
“Nyaaa. Today, today, pay tribute!”
“…”
Silently, Shay took out today’s magic herb and passed it into the butterfly’s mouth. Tyrkanjaka looked closely at the situation and said.
“Suddenly, you are losing sincerity towards the cat king. Are you bothered?”
“…Ah no, it’s still fine. only.”
“only?”
Shay muttered as she sipped the magic weed and looked at the cheerfully purring butterfly.
“Because I can’t support butterflies forever. At some point, there will come a day when you have to part with the butterfly. Then I want to know what to do.”
“It’s such a silly worry.”
Tyrkanjaka clicked his tongue and adjusted his posture, giving Shay heartfelt advice.
“What do you mean you can be responsible? A creature with its own feet walks on its own path. It is not your responsibility to decide which path you will take after you leave. You have to know how to let it flow in
moderation…” It was obviously an advice that contained years of experience, but as he was speaking, Tyrkanjaka remembered someone and lowered his head gloomily. Even she was chasing after the one who walked on her own path.
This time, Shay offered a deep consolation.
“are you okay. They say you can’t see your flaws well.”
“…thank you so much! So, how long are you going to be in a room with only a child? When you’re done, get out!”
Tyrkanjaka shot sharply. Shay groaned and looked around the room.
In fact, Shay doesn’t have to stay in the room at all. No one here is an easy opponent, and unless you’re a military commander, you won’t even be able to scratch it.
As long as Tyrkanjakara had reliable powers, I wasn’t worried about where they would bounce.
But being treated as a man is annoying now. Shay wondered if she should reveal her gender. It’s a bit extreme, but if you show her even naked, the misunderstanding will clear up.
The problem is how to show bare skin naturally
. It was a time when Shay was contemplating whether to visit a hot spring or not.
Feeling the unfamiliar presence, Tyrkanjaka turned his head.
“A guest has come, Shay…. Hmm? He came to the door and just went back.”
“ah. I think I know roughly who it is.”
When Shay opened the door, only a neatly placed letter was waiting for her instead of a guest. Shay snorted and picked up the letter.
“They are the Resistance guys.”
“When you say resistance, do you mean people like the revival army?”
“Exactly. It seems that they contacted us after hearing our story.”
“A story? Didn’t we come out of the abyss?”
“On the way back, you overpowered five companies and destroyed two of the Warrant of All Things bases. I guess that rumor has spread.”
Rash the Undead and former Lieutenant Colonel Khalis decided to move the military in a far circumferential direction. Rash said hello to the teacher and walked away.
The primary goal was to go find Hughes, but apart from that, Shay was a personality that valued efficiency. If I saw the base of the lord of all things on my way, I would lift it slightly, break it down, and go on my way again.
“The news is also very fast. It’s not long since I’ve come this far.”
“There are communication soldiers and communication equipment in the military, and other places have come up with their own ways.”
Shay laughed and tore up the letter. Tirkanjaka was puzzled by his resolute attitude without hesitation.
“It is strange. I thought you hated the military nation very much.”
“that’s right. I hate the military.”
Shay snapped her fingers. Flames rose and enveloped the letter.
Shay murmured as she watched the letter disappear without ashes.
“More than anything else, I hate the lack of an alternative.”
Shay once tried to bring down the military. Because the damn country of the military was always the first enemy Shay faced, and it seemed like he could move forward only after overcoming it.
And it worked.
After thorough preparation and several rounds of hard work, Shay once destroyed an army. Like Patraxion, she became a hero of the newly created Free Republic.
And he left the country, swallowing a bitter aftertaste.
After that, he never set foot on the ground of a free republic again.
throughout all rounds.
“Romanticists with no countermeasures, remnants of the old world, just people who hate the military. The Resistance is an amalgamation of these three groups. A country drawn by people with different backgrounds and dreams… a world where everyone is equal and happy.”
Upon hearing Shay’s words, Tirkanjaka realized their true nature and nodded.
Thinking that the human group does not change even after hundreds of years.
“It’s an ideal theory without an answer.”
“that’s right. Everyone had a goal and didn’t prepare a path. There’s no way such people can even maintain the status quo…”
To be precise, I saw it myself.
It was decided to free the overworked laborers, pay them instead, and hire workers.
Especially the most important meta conveyor belt. It was necessary to maintain the status quo only for the core facility of the military. 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 there is a problem that if you miss a cargo once at a destination, it will go missing for over a week. Even the slightest mistake puts a burden on the country.
Missing a week. Delayed schedules. Costs rising and trust hitting rock bottom.
Realizing the importance of this work, the workers demanded better treatment, holding Belt hostage. You can’t blame the workers. No matter how much the pay was, the labor was actually murderous.
The kind country that denied the military state and came out was dragged around by them.
There was grease in the veins. The whole country creaked.
As a result, Shay, who ruined the country, sees the country that has changed a year later. He left the country with a big heartache.
“…Rather than leaving it to those bastards, you can just pick and eat the warrant of creation and leave the rest alone. And the military isn’t too bothersome as long as you understand the principles of action.”
“Shay, do you mean you figured out the principles of their behavior?”
“of course. look. They are openly heading to the capital, but the country is doing their best to stop them.”
“Come to think of it, this is an unusual case. If we march toward the capital, we must concentrate all our strength to stop it.”
The reason was so simple and so futile. How devastated Shay was when she found out about it in the last episode.
So how much did you hate the military even more?
“We broke five companies, but didn’t kill a single one. This is where the military came to its conclusion. It’s too strong to subdue, but the four of us are too insignificant to focus on. It doesn’t make sense, so I’m actively neglecting it.”
Active avoidance of engagement. Fighting doesn’t pay off, so don’t fight at all.
It was a judgment like a country crazy about efficiency.
“If Jung decides to make a life-and-death decision, he will gather at least three of the Six Generals and come back. It is a national loss if a loss occurs after a clumsy input of power. However, since you can’t just take out the power that’s the size of the Six Great Wall, you won’t find it unless you have nothing to do with the Six Great Wall…”
Shay muttered.
Aji pricked up his ears. Butterfly frowned and bristled her fur.
Like the beasts, Shay and Tirkanjaka felt the blatant force and rose from their seats.
Shay muttered with a face that something had come.
“I’m here. Yukjangseong has nothing to do.”
