I Returned, But My Power is the Same

"Yes...? I see..."

Seong Da-kyung bows her head.

It seems that I misunderstood what I said in a bad way.

I don't mean that.

He placed both of his hands on Sung Da-kyung's shoulders.

Seong Da-kyung carefully raises his head.

His eyes are slightly wet.

“Mr. Da-kyung.”

"Yes..."

“I liked Da-kyung too, so I was just going to watch it until today.”

"Yes...?"

Your eyes widen in an instant.

"really...? Aren't you kidding me again...?"

“Haha, I’m still going to play around with something like this.”

Seong Da-kyung looks at me without saying a word.

Then he suddenly hugs him.

“Uh, look at people.”

"I do not know. It will be like this.”

I can't see it because it's buried in my chest, but I can feel it smiling.

I also have the corners of her lips curled up.

“Am I now Dojin’s girlfriend?”

Seong Da-kyung asks as if confirming.

She snapped her head up.

"Yes. I'm Dakyung's boyfriend."

“How did this happen? I never thought of it.”

“Did you think I would say no?”

“Uh… yes.”

do it

From Seong Da-kyung's point of view, it could be.

“At some point, it stuck in my mind.”

"Yes?"

“It’s Da-kyung.”

Seong Da-kyung's cheeks are burning red.

Well.

Was it too squeaky?

“Can you stretch out her hands and feet?”

"no. Nice to hear.”

Seong Da-kyung smiles brightly and then gets out of my arms.

Instead, she catches something going as if waiting.

it was my hand

“Do you know how long I wanted to hold this hand?”

“Did you?”

"Yes. I was just about to catch it, but I endured it.”

“Oh, you are so powerful.”

"no. How shy I am.”

Contrary to words, her hands were already clasped.

It's very soft.

Come to think of it, I think it was when I was preparing a promotional video or I tried to measure my hand size... Oh, that was Lieutenant Young Sojin.

“I have one thing to commemorate our relationship.”

Side by side walking path through the park near the stop.

Seong Da-kyung speaks out of her in a serious tone.

“What?”

“Name.”

“Oh, are you sissy?”

"Yes. It's unavoidable in the military, but when we're together, call me comfortably."

“Anyway, I have something to say about that.”

She originally didn't want her to speak with my mouth first.

I feel like something is squealing a bit.

But it's not like it's sexual.

Because she was my girlfriend before she was a squad member.

“I will be a sergeant from next week.”

"Yes?! how?!"

“You’ve been promoted to special. I think the last time I showed mana, a lot of it was reflected in the performance.”

“Wow! really?"

Seong Da-kyung jumps and waves her hands.

She responded there with a hi-fi.

"thank you."

“I wish I could have told you sooner! I should have bought a cake and left!”

“Ugh, that’s too much fuss.”

“It’s worth the fuss! I'm a sergeant!"

In fact, it is.Because a sergeant is the highest among the ranks of soldiers.

I had already experienced it before returning, so if it wasn't for it, I would have run around like Seong Da-kyung.

“Then even better!”

"What?"

“Name! Now you can call them comfortably even in the military!”

“Ah, yes, yes.”

“It’s easy to talk! No, let’s take it easy!”

"okay."

It's a bit crazy, but somehow it seems to be sorted out.

Let's go, then the name is...

“You can just call me by my first name.”

"how?"

"Hey?"

Seong Da-kyung's face turns pale.

"No. That’s not very good.”

"then?"

"self?"

Hmmm.

I said while coughing in vain.

“I don’t like words like that. And it's not even our day, it's now 30 minutes. Did you date?”

“Is dating time important? Emotions don’t matter.”

That's correct, though.

“I’m going to call you babe.”

“Hmm, but if you do that wrong, it will come out in vain. Imagine the executives heard it. We are both dead.”

“Are you going to keep our relationship a secret?”

"of course."

No matter how much the unit has been reorganized, the view on the relationship between male and female hunters is still conservative.

No, it would be more correct to view it as a measure for unit operation rather than being conservative.

Because I get hit in the eye and even go out for training.

Seong Da-kyung understood that too.

"Yeah...if we find out, we'll both be dead..."

“Okay, so let’s make the name clear. Just calling your name.”

“It’s not even a name…”

“You don’t like my name? It was built by my grandmother.”

“Ah, no, not that!”

Seong Da-kyung hurriedly protests.

I never meant to say that.

I burst into laughter.

But the naming issue seems unavoidable.

The meaning of Seong Da-kyung is strong.

“I’ll be careful inside the unit! Be careful!”

"okay. But you have to be really careful. I heard that some kids in the 3rd company got books because they were dating, so their performance was greatly reduced.”

“Performance? Wow, that’s too much.”

“Well, the original rule states that male and female hunters should not be involved in training or combat, but rationally if possible.”

“Yeah. When I'm dating a normal person, I don't say anything."

“Isn’t it irrelevant because the public only meet outside?”

“That’s right… I’m afraid I’ll quit the hunter and become a normal person…”

Of course it's a joke, but it's a bit odd.

A person who is so absorbed in his job as a hunter to the point of preparing for the promotion test even says that he wants to become an ordinary person because of me.

You should do well in the future.

“So what are you going to call me?”

“Dakyung? Or are you?”

"okay. Whatever you do, you are better than ya.”

“But when I think about it, calling Dagyeong is a bit different.”

"Why?"

“You’re taller than me, older. Shall I just call you sister? Even if it’s easy to say.”

"That's not allowed. Absolutely never.”

Seong Da-kyung shakes her head and says.

“I feel like I’m too far away.”

“Then why don’t you call me sister?”

"Huh. You better say ya.”

“I don’t want to do it, so I want to do it more, sister.”

“Ah, don’t do it. I'd rather say ya."

Seong Da-kyung completely covers her ears.

You really don't want to hear your sister's voice.

I'll use it later when I'm playing with something.

“But you seem to stick to the word baby.”

“I like it because it makes me feel like something more belongs to me when I call her.”

“Do you feel like it’s yours?”

"Huh! No one seems to be able to fill it? So that’s how it feels!”

“You are too. Who will take me?”

Seong Da-kyung takes my hand again and says.

"Nope. there might be He didn't talk, so he doesn't know."

***

That night.

As soon as she got home, she told me that she had a girlfriend.

You don't have to hide it from your family even if you don't know the unit.

Her parents, of course, congratulated her.

Say goodbye to me and say goodbye to me.

“Awesome great! So are you dating?”

"uh."

“I think he really liked you.”

"Yeah. My sister was right.”

“Yeah, look. That’s right.”

My sister also congratulated me.

But the eyes are a bit odd.

“Are you going to keep it a secret in the military?”

“Oh, it should be.”

“Aren’t you still going to be secretly flirting?”

“What kind of bullshit?”

“Knowing.”

My sister taps my forearm.

And he chuckles to himself as to what he is thinking.

Did you have a whore devil?

“When will you introduce yourself? Dakyung is her.”

"okay. Then good luck.”

Oops.

I almost forgot

I did not go out and pulled out a few pieces of stiff paper from my pocket.

"what?"

“Department Store Gift Certificate.”

“Why this?”

“Thank you. It's thanks to my sister."

“Come, do you know grace?”

My sister puts the gift certificate in her wallet saying she needs to buy some new clothes.

Then he suddenly asks with a serious face.

“Dojin-ah, but isn’t there another one?”

“What else do you have?”

“A woman like Da-kyung.”

“What do you mean?”

“So, you didn’t know that Dakyung liked you until I told you, didn’t you? I didn’t even know you were making tea.”

“Uh… was it?”

“There is another woman like Da-kyung, and it’s not that you don’t know.”

"a."

I waved my hand.

"does not exist. never.”

"right?"

"uh."

“Okay then.”

"okay. that's good I took care of my parents separately, so don’t worry about them.”

“It’s done. thanks. I will write well.”

I waved her hand and returned to my room.

When she turns on her cell phone, she sees a text message from Seong Da-kyung.

# Seong Da-kyung: Honey, did I tell you? I just told you, they both really like them hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

I'm tapping the keypad to send a reply.

something a bit strange

She is a woman who was a fellow comrade until this evening, that she is now a lover.

After exchanging text messages for a while, I went to bed.

Suddenly, the words my sister had said earlier passed by.

She likes me like Sung Da-kyung, and even gives tea, but she doesn't know.

I immediately shook my head.

what.

there can be no

***

Friday.

Originally, the day I was supposed to answer my confession was changed to the day of my first date.

Of course, it was normal to do it anyway.

Going to the promised play, walking the streets, and looking for a delicious restaurant.

It was such ordinary things.

“Baby, let’s go see that one!”

"okay."

Instead, the relationship changed, and all those ordinary things became special.

Today's day was filled in my mind.

“Dojin-ah, hello bye~”“Your sister is very dry at your praise, her mouth.”

On Saturday, I went to my sister's college classmates' meeting as scheduled.

It took me less than two hours to take all the drinks they gave me, and I was in a good mood, but they weren't great people who would let me go.

People play with each other...

They're all the same little sisters...

- My sister and friends must have liked it.

“I liked it… I liked it so much that I made him drink ten glasses of bomb liquor…

- Did you drink that much? are you okay? What would you like to buy?

"it's okay. I think I'll get better if I sleep. you should rest too

I finally got home and had a brief phone call with Seong Da-kyung.

uh huh.

Every breath I take, the smell of alcohol rises.

- Huh! But you know, baby.

"uh."

- You said you're meeting the deputy commander tomorrow evening, didn't you?

"uh."

- Can't I go there too?

“I don’t think so.”

It should be nice to go together, but I can't help it.

I'm seeing this because of a drinking incident.

I don't know what it is, but he said he had something very important to say.

“Because the two of you were supposed to see it.”

- is it...

"uh. See you next time.”

- okay...!

I hung up the phone and thought for a moment.

Come to think of it, these very important words... What are you trying to say?

***

The next day, Sunday evening.

I met Lieutenant Young So-jin on a street in the city.

“Loyalty!”

“Loyalty. It's gotten prettier while I haven't seen it. That's why I went up to the sergeant."

“Haha, thank you.”

“Let’s go over there.”

"Yes."

Then I went to a nearby Korean restaurant.

It was a place that came out as a course, but even if it was a basic course, it cost more than a few hundred thousand won.

“Isn’t it too expensive?”

“It is cheap compared to the sins committed.”

"no. That day was really good.”

"really?"

"Yes. And compared to what the deputy platoon leader usually takes care of, we can do more than that.”

Lieutenant Young So-jin smiles.

I'm not good at flattery again.

Of course, what you just said is true.

Before and after the return, there was no one who took care of me as much as Lieutenant Young So-jin.

“But the deputy commander.”

"Huh?"

“Didn’t you say that you have something very important to say?”

"Ah..."

Lieutenant Young So-jin's face hardened slightly.

No, I must say I was trembling.

In any case, such a sign passed by in an instant.

what?

“Remember last time? You said that you found someone you like.”

"Ah! Yes."

That was the story.

So my face was shaking.

“I was going to tell him about my feelings… I think I’m getting along well with another woman.”

“Is that… that… are you sure?”

"Huh. I see you two meet each other and do that.”

If the two of them meet each other and do that... I'd say it's for sure.

I couldn't keep my mouth shut.

It was difficult to even offer consolation.

It wasn't because of the relationship between an officer and a soldier.

Lieutenant Young So-jin's eyes were a little red.

“I’m sorry… the atmosphere has just gotten weird…”

“Oh, no. Fine."

“But Dojin-ah…”

“Corrupt Do-Jin Choi.”

Eyes that look like they will burst into tears if you touch them, looking at me.

“Is it too late now...? Can't you...?"
