I Returned, But My Power is the Same

Lieutenant Young Sojin suddenly unzipped his battle suit and slid it behind his shoulder.

A military tee made to cling to his body is exposed.

It happened in an instant.

“Ah, no, platoon leader!”

"Huh? Why?"

Unlike me, who shouts in embarrassment, Lieutenant Young So-jin has an innocent face like a child.

Like what's the problem with this?

right.

No problem.

Because he's wearing a separate military tee inside.

“This is just for military use.”

Lieutenant Young So-jin also mentions that.

He grabs his military tee with his fingers and even shows it fluttering slightly.

“When you work, you only wear military t-shirts.”

“Well, it’s not… Who wouldn't be surprised if you suddenly put on a battle suit!"

“Um, that’s right. I'll do it a little slower next time."

“Honey, I’m not going to do it slowly, but you have to tell me in advance and do it!”

"iced coffee."

Lieutenant Young Sojin nodded his head as if he knew only then.

“I think it was because it was so comfortable.”

“Great.”

“Seeing you coughing, I think Dojin is not comfortable with me.”

Damn this bastard cough.

How should I get rid of the habit?

“Is it possible? I am also comfortable with the operation officer. And you said that you wanted to have a comfortable time since you went on a dungeon vacation, didn't you?"

“Oh, do you remember that?”

"sure."

In fact, I forgot about it and now I remember it.

Swallowing those words inwardly, he opened his mouth again.

“But why are you wearing a battle suit?”

“I told you that if you don’t have a girlfriend, you can show it off.”

Lieutenant Young Sojin speaks and strokes the area just below his collarbone.

“If it’s this way, it’s good to show it to someone who doesn’t have a girlfriend.”

“Uh… Yes. That’s it.”

I heard he hurt his chest.

It wasn't such a sensitive area.

“Anyway, I’ll be fine.”

"Yes."

“Don’t worry about the reviews. If there are any scars left, I will tell you right away.”

"all right."

Lieutenant Young So-jin puts on her combat uniform again.

And he looks at me with a five-color candle on one side.

“In the meantime, I’ll have to bring Dojin what you need.”

what do i need?

What is it?

* * *

It's March.

The dreadful snow had subsided as if it had never happened.

He had also put a battle field jacket in for a long time.

It was still chilly at night, but compared to last month and last month, it was summer level.

Oh, summer has gone too far.

March is the time when the troops are operating in earnest.

There are more than ten kinds of training that will be conducted in the future.

Of course, gates or dungeons occurring in the jurisdiction should always be removed regardless of the time.

It's been like that this winter too.

The first training in March was preparation for the combat ability and physical ability test.

As I said before, testing is especially important than any other training.

This is because it directly affects performance.

“First, let’s develop physical abilities. Combat ability is important, of course, but it doesn't mean anything if your physical abilities don't support it. Everyone knows?”

"Yes!"

It started with the physical ability part.

There was nothing too difficult or complicated to get there.They can raise themselves well with just a little bit of iron or basic exercise.

The problem was then.

“It was said earlier that combat ability has meaning only if it is supported by physical ability, but on the contrary, no matter how strong the physical ability, if the combat ability is poor, nothing can be done in actual combat. You just end up getting beaten up. Everyone keep that in mind.”

"Yes!"

Unlike physical ability, combat ability is not something that can only be achieved through hard work.

I know it better than anyone.

For 10 years, he wielded his sword recklessly, but the sergeant was the limit.

anyway so.

You need someone to look after you.

“Each deputy platoon commander should be able to command the soldiers well.”

"all right."

The deputy platoon commanders may be the lowest among the executives, but by the standards of the soldiers, they are gods.

I'm not exaggerating, really.

So if they look at it, it will be a big help.

“Can you see the platoon commander too?”

“It should be.”

I went out too.

It's better to watch it in person than to give instructions from behind.

And there should be more soldiers.

There are limits to only the Vice-President.

“There, the sword should be stretched like this. Yes, like that.”

"Yes."

“Clean it with both hands and hold it lightly. oh okay Just go.”

"Yes."

I was exhausted right away trying to look after each one, but there was still a sense of accomplishment.

The way I grow one by one by telling me something.

It was nice to watch it.

Of course, it was nice that the soldiers followed along without saying a word.

“Cheong-ah.”

“Private Whey!”

Of course, Yoochung-ah looked after me.

“Cheong-ah, let’s try a mock match with me.”

“Are you talking about mock competition?”

"uh."

“Ugh… … .”

After watching the swordsmanship a few times, he brought up the discussion of mock battles, and the kid tilted his head.

The country would have reacted the same way.

Even if I fight with my bare hands, I will still win, but what will I gain?

But it's not about winning and losing.

“It’s about learning your senses and skills.”

“Sense and skill?”

“Take a pose for now.”

"Ah! Yes."

One action is better than a hundred words.

Holding the sword, he stood facing Yoo Chung-ah.

Of course, both are training swords.

If you use a true sword, if you make a mistake, your head will be cut off.

There is a difference in my abilities with Yoochung-ah.

“Fight as usual.”

“As usual… all right."

I still didn't know what it was, but for now, I do what I tell him to do.

It rushes at me with a little gimmick.

Fast.

The action is also simple.

good.

It's not bad.

👌👌👌👌👌

There are no frills in the trajectory of the sword being swung.

If monsters such as goblins or gnolls were standing there, they would have been hit and killed instantly.

But it was there.

tuk-

I've only swung my sword once, and it's only been swung very, very lightly, and it's pushed back.

There is no difference in abilities.

I didn't even use my powers properly now.

“Chung, you are all right. The posture is good, the movements are simple, the movements are quick, everything is good. There’s only one thing, I don’t have enough power.”

"strength… … I just felt it too. Am I lacking in physical abilities?”

“I don’t know if it’s movement or movement, but the power to handle the sword is not affected that much by the physical ability.”

"then… … ?”

“My swordsmanship proficiency has gone down.”

"Ah."

“Let’s grow it a little.”

It was then that I realized why I decided to do a mock match.

He immediately drew the sword again.

I picked up the sword again.

Then the two swords collided.

The result was the same as before.

But you can't be satisfied with the first drink.

He continued to fight over and over again.

At the same time, the other soldiers continued to watch.

Because Yoo Chung-ah isn't the only member of my platoon.

“It was hard.”

“You worked hard, platoon commander!”

“Yes, yes.”

The training was repeated until the end of the day.

I only watched from the side, and my body was full of sweat.

This isn't easy either.

I wanted to wash up and lie down on the bed, but I went back to the training room.

Now that I've trained the soldiers, it's my turn to train.

Because black doesn't just apply to soldiers.

Actually, there is an easier way.

muscle pumping.

If you use that skill, you can achieve good results in black.

It's like that when you catch a mud golem right now.

My muscles are filled to that extent, so there is nothing to be afraid of, whether it be physical ability or combat ability.

But skill teeth mean nothing.

If I think more about the future than I do now, my pure abilities should improve.

In the first place, you can't use skills when you're black.

[Experience of strength stat increases.]

[Experience of the stamina stat increases.]

[Experience of agility stats increases.]

[Experience of vitality stat increases.]

[Experience of mana stat increases.]

As soon as you start training, your stat experience will start to rise.

Of course, experience only increased.

Leveling up was impossible to even dream of.

Looking at it this way, the runes I ate in the Mud Golem dungeon seemed like a real scam.

He smiled and continued training.

That day, the next day, and the day after that.

“From now on, we will conduct a soldier’s physical ability and combat ability test.”

And the day has come.

* * *

“Hello, how are you?”

Evaluators came down from Satan.

These are the kind of people you see every ATT or cold season training.

I hope you can take a good look this time.

Ah.

No.

Rather, you should look at it more sternly.

That way we know exactly what level our kids are up to.

“Let’s start.”

"Yes."

Our platoon evaluator was wearing three diamonds.

Yes, there is only one difference from me, but I don't know why I feel that kind of force.

I would like to do the same

With that in mind, he looked at the soldiers.

“Guys, just do what you train. That’s it.”"Yes!"

He clenched his fists and shouted fight.

Why do you care so much?

This is because my evaluation varies depending on the results the soldiers give.

Not just for that reason.

as a platoon commander.

And as someone who was once a soldier like them.

I just want you to do well.

“Hey, did you train hard?”

“Haha, yes.”

Black finally started.

A satisfied smile appeared on the appraiser's lips.

“In general, great.”

"thank you."

This evaluation is rigorous.

Even so, the fact that it came out as great means that our kids did well that much.

Good good.

“Let’s do this and finish it. Good job, Lieutenant Choi.”

“Loyalty! Come in.”

The test, which started at 10 o'clock, ended at 16:30.

The body is full of strength.

Because I was nervous the whole time as much as the soldiers.

Fortunately, the results seem to be good.

Regardless of what the evaluator said, objectively, everyone was very good.

“Squadron Commander!”

At that moment, the soldiers rushed toward me.

Everyone has a bright face.

They seem to know it too.

that the results are fine.

"thank you!"

“Thank you for what I did. You guys did a good job.”

"no. How much did the platoon leader do? Other platoon leaders would not have done that.”

It seems to be talking about a 1:1 ratio.

Of course, that doesn't mean the other platoon commanders are wrong.

There are also deputy platoon leaders, so there is no need for them to go out.

Why did I do it?

I used to think like this when I was a soldier.

I wondered how good it would be if a person about the size of a platoon commander could see it in a 1:1 ratio.

So it was just that.

"Thank you very much!"

I also received thanks from Yoo Chung-ah.

Like other soldiers, Yoo Chung-ah was very nice.

It looks like I'm going to get a corporal sooner or later.

The word is sooner or later, however short it may be, it will take several months.

It could take a year and a half.

However, considering the average time from private to corporal, it is also very fast.

“Let’s do well in the future, Chung-ah.”

"Yes!"

The courageous answer is like seeing Lieutenant Young So-jin.

It would be difficult to become like Lieutenant Young So-jin, but that doesn't mean it's impossible.

Look at how you are growing day by day.

It seems that the rune that was handed over at that time properly broke the wall that suppressed Yoo Chung-ah.

"I… … Platoon Commander!”

I stop turning around, and Yoo Chung-ah calls me again.

in a very cautious tone.

“Oh, my dear. Why?"

“I have something to tell you… … There is one.”

Unlike the talking two, the expression on his face is serious, as if he had decided something.

once asked

"What?"

“I think it’s going to be a little difficult here… … Are you okay elsewhere?”

What do you mean you want to move to your seat?

Confused, she nodded her head.

“Oh, it’s okay. Shall we go to my office then?”
