I Returned, But My Power is the Same

Chapter 218 to you

Lieutenant Young So-jin once said something like this to me during a dungeon vacation.

It is said that in some units, an officer and a soldier became lovers.

They said that they were a female officer and a male soldier just like us.

At the time, I just heard it.

Lieutenant Young So-jin was trying to express his thoughts about me, at least indirectly.

under.

only sighs

How can a person be so dull?

Unless it's a real asshole.

I messed up my hair.

The older sister, who was silent, said.

“Hey, I guess I know now.”

“… … .”

“Don’t be too hard on yourself. And, as I said before, the thought, ‘Is this person going to like me?’ may have subconsciously dominated your head. Is your relationship with Young So-jin a little ambiguous? Officers and soldiers, that is also a direct relationship.”

“Even so, how can you not know this much?”

“If you think about it when you were in Da-kyung, it’s okay.”

“Thank you. Still, you are representing my position as a sister.”

“It’s not a stool, it’s you, so I understand.”

“… … For some reason, I wondered why you listened to me.”

For a moment there is a roar of laughter. My sister just thinks this is funny.

“What should I do? It's already happened like this. And you're not playing with that young man's heart, are you?"

“… … .”

“But I’m curious about that.”

"what?"

“Do you still like me?”

it suddenly comes to mind

There's a guy he likes, and he says he doesn't know his heart at all.

Then the man met another woman.

However… …

He said he still likes the man.

This is what Lieutenant Young So-jin once said to me.

under.

That man was me too.

Dojin-ah, let's just die.

you can't

“Not now, is it? It’s already been two years since you and Dakyung met.”

“Oh, not now.”

Lieutenant Young So-jin told me about the man when I had just met Seong Da-kyung.

So it won't be.

Now, never will.

“But again, I don’t know. I still like it, but it might be something I’m hiding.”

“Stand, please.”

“Do you know that that supremacy contributed to a significant part of this situation?”

“… … .”

Seeing my desperate expression on my face, my sister immediately opened her mouth again.

“Hey, it’s a joke, it’s a joke. No matter how much you like a man, who still likes a man who has a girlfriend for nearly 2 years? Nonsense.”

“I guess… … ?”

"of course. I can never do that.”

“Whew… … .”

“Ah, just in case you were wondering, don’t ever say things like ‘Did you like me?’ to Young So-jin.”

“I’m not that tidy.”

“If you look at what you’ve been doing, you’re right.”

“… … .”

“So, don’t just take swordsmanship training, go somewhere and get some dating training or, no, women’s heart training. What kind of kid doesn't have any sense in that way, it's a sense."

“… … I really want to.”

“Hey, look at what he is serious about. It seems complicated in many ways.”

“… … It's more complicated than the operation to retake Jeju Island, now."

“Huh, really? Hagisa, when it comes to me, the boss I was close with found out that he didn't like me. It must be complicated.”

“… … .”

“Anyway, Choi Do-hee’s psychological counseling for men and women ends here!”My sister, who had just stood up, opened her mouth again as if she had forgotten something important.

“Don’t ever tease me with you.”

"tea? what tea?”

“Young So-jin found out that he liked you. Don’t tease that.”

"Ah… … .”

“If you tease us for nothing, we only get farther apart. You don't want to get away from him, Young So-jin, do you? He was the one who looked after all your training and helped you rise to the rank of captain. So you say you have a lot of will?”

"uh… … right."

“So, don’t tease me.”

After saying those words, my sister left my room.

I thought I was left alone.

Don't tea... … Now that was all I could do.

* * *

Another day passed.

Her mind was still complicated.

And he kept blaming me. I think I did something very wrong with Lieutenant Young So-jin.

I didn't see it, so my sister told me not to go to work.

“You didn’t like it?”

"uh?"

“That’s Young So-jin. You didn't like it, did you?"

“Ugh… … From a rational point of view, it should be.”

“Then you have nothing to be sorry for. If ignorance is a crime, I can be sorry for that.”

“… … .”

"I'm going."

“Uh, uh. suffer.”

Having said that, I am confused.

Have I never liked Lieutenant Young So-jin rationally?

Of course not now, but before meeting Seong Da-kyung, did you ever like it?

Even that kind of feeling, ‘I can’t be the kind of person who likes a person like Young So-jin!’ might have been hidden.

I knew at this moment.

How timid I am when it comes to women.

ahhh

I messed up my hair again.

A few strands will come out if you tangle it too hard.

You're the only one suffering because you met the wrong owner.

I begged the poor head for forgiveness and went into the bathroom.

It's still complicated, but it can't be like this forever.

First of all, I have to do my job.

# Dakyung: Baby! You know we'll see you at 18 today, right?

# Me: Uh. of course you know

# Dakyung: Hahahaha Guaranteed then!

Later in the evening, we have dinner with Seong Da-kyung and Seong Da-kyung's parents.

So, until then, I plan to do individual training separately.

'Cause I've had enough rest now.

Washed and simply prepared.

A training sword in comfortable sportswear.

It was a training place, and it was the valley I went to every time it was like this.

"thank you."

"Yes."

I took a taxi and went straight to it.

Late summer is in full swing, but this is a mountainous area, so it's cool.

Perfect for training.

As soon as I arrived, I relaxed my body.

After being idle for a few days, it has hardened.

Good thing you came out today.

He relaxed his body and rolled up his sword.

It's a training sword, so it's not as bad as a combat sword in shape and blade, but it's for training anyway.

Not for the purpose of catching monsters.

Even if this is enough, it's great.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!

Mana was loaded immediately.

The sword began to burn.

Originally, this was the end, but now it goes one step further.

[The sword skill is activated.]

The size doesn't make that much of a difference.

But the concentration is different.

Mana is extremely condensed.

whistle-

The sword gently cuts through the air.

If it was a sword, mana would have been wasted scattered here and there, but the sword was different.

There is nothing scattered at all.

All are fixed to the sword.

Of course it didn't last long.

As he swung to a certain extent, mana began to be wasted like a sword.

Can not help it.

Because I don't have enough skill yet.

‘Skill level, you can raise it by training like this or by catching monsters.’

What matters is how hard I work each time.

I'm working hard, of course I'm confident.

It's something I've been doing every day since before my return.

He continued training, wiping sweat from his forehead.

She also practiced mana while sitting cross-legged in her middle.

No matter how well you handle the sword, you can't use it if you don't have mana.

When the sun came up, it was floating in the middle of the sky, but at some point it was slowly leaning over the mountain.

Time is so fast.

She wanted to add a little more, but she thought of Sir Seongda's promise and put in her sword.

That moment.

[The proficiency of the sword skill increases!]

It was a bit disappointing, but with this notification, that regret completely disappeared.

that this notification popped up.

Not one, but three.

It means you did very well training today.

* * *

“My parents said they came here separately for work.”

17:30.

I met Seong Da-kyung at the stop in front of her house.

She must have just left her unit, but her head to toe is all set up.

“When did you get ready to wear makeup like this?”

“I was in a hurry to see you.”

“You can just come out.”

"No. I mean, I just want to show my pretty side.”

“When you do things like Sook-young, do you see all your naked faces anyway? It still catches my eye.”

“It’s a naked face… … That is unfair… … .”

Seong Da-kyung's lips protrude.

"However… … Is my bare face that weird?”

“Haha, it’s not weird at all. Everything is beautiful.”

Her lips slipped in as if it had ever been. And she smiles brightly.

“Let’s go. We should go first.”

"Huh!"

“But where are you going?”

“Hey, I know when I go.”

Hmm, where are you going?

“Chief, please go to the ○○-dong.”

For once, I followed Seong Da-kyung as he went.

When she arrived it was some Korean restaurant. It looks like it would be very expensive.

This is why Lieutenant Young So-jin was embarrassed yesterday.

I'll know by experiencing it myself.

“Looks very expensive here.”

“That’s how good my parents are to me.”

Scratching the back of his head, Seong Da-kyung's parents entered the reserved seat.

Seong Da-kyung's parents also arrived soon.

“Are we a little late?”"no. We just came.”

“Haha, that’s right. sit down.”

I've seen them a few times, so there's nothing awkward about it.

I was just a little nervous.

“I don’t know if I was embarrassed by the sudden offer to eat.”

“I was invited to my house before. Fine."

“Haha, that’s good.”

My father was a man with a ferocious personality.

He always smiled and made me feel comfortable.

“I don’t know if it will taste good. I chose to choose.”

“I love Korean food.”

"okay? You made a good choice, then.”

My mother also took good care of me with a soft voice.

After that, he continued to talk and ask for his regards.

Various dishes were already set on the table.

It's also different for being expensive.

“Take a drink.”

"Yes."

I also had a few drinks with my father.

Da-kyung Seong, of course.

My mother said she couldn't eat well, so we only had a drink together.

“I’ll pour you a drink too.”

“I drink all the alcohol that Captain Choi Do-jin pours out when I turn on the TV these days.”

Then, naturally, the story of the Jeju Island recapture operation came up.

“Congratulations. I heard that you were awarded a medal.”

"thank you."

“Did you even get promoted to captain?”

"Yes."

“It’s great, but yes. It wasn't enough for me to do such a difficult job, I was even promoted to a medal. I wonder what kind of blessed woman would take a man like you.”

“Dad, here you are.”

Seong Da-kyung covers her mouth with one hand and whispers.

Dad laughs at that.

and look at me again

“Have you been with Dakyung for about two years now?”

“Are you talking about the time we met?”

"okay."

"That's right."

“It’s been quite a while. If it was like the old days, it would have been time to make a living right away. Honey, we've been dating for a year, haven't we?"

“Is that so?”

My mother answers by putting ribs on the plate in front of me.

Father nods his head and raises his glass.

I quickly followed and grabbed a glass.

A few more, and a few more.

I didn't drink that much, but my face got a little hot.

Since it's a traditional liquor, it's probably a little too strong.

Seong Da-kyung was lying on my knees for a moment.

My mother was next to me and said, 'He's a disgrace! Won't you wake up soon?" but I said it was okay.

Of course, it wasn't Seong Da-kyung that would happen.

The condition was similar to that at the troop dinner.

When did you get like this
