I Returned, But My Power is the Same

was heading for me

Carlyson and Qiowei's eyes were on me.

“Who are you talking about?”

“Who?!”

The eyes of the reporters, who couldn't take a break, followed me soon after.

It was because the hunters around me were all looking at me.

“Who is that Hunter?”

“Why did you suddenly name that hunter? I was asking who did the better of the two.”

Reporters tilt their heads.

Then a reporter shouted.

“Chief Dojin Choi!”

He was a Korean journalist.

Then reporters from other countries also shouted.

“It’s Dojin Choi! That’s Do-Jin Choi during Korea’s operation to retake Jeju Island!”

"Ah!"

The operation to retake Jeju Island was also a matter of great interest to foreign media at the time.

And my name has been mentioned there several times.

Thanks for putting the ball up.

It's the influence that reporters from other countries recognize me now.

“Chief Carlyson, Team Leader Qiowei. Are you saying that Hunter Choi Do-jin was more active than the two of you?”

"That's right."

As soon as the two team leaders nodded, something rushed in.

were reporters.

He grabbed the mics one by one and wrapped them around me.

“Hunter Choi Do-jin! Say something!”

“How did you get better than Callison and Qiowei? How good are you?”

“Did you expect it to be like this?”

“How much stronger do you think you are than Carlyson and Qiowei?”

It's an blatant question.

Asking me to tell you is the most comfortable way to hear it.

I slowly opened my mouth.

“I will answer those questions later. Now is the time to just celebrate the successful completion of the mission.”

He pointed to the surrounding hunters, Carlyson and Qiowei over there, and our Black Wings.

After doing this, the reporters no longer appeared like they just did.

And each hunter's face was captured on camera.

It was being broadcast live all over the world.

After the large gate was cleared, it seems that reporters were sent from various countries.

Korean reporters constantly lit flashes, saying, 'This is the pride of Korea!'

Well.

It would have been nice if my sister would also come at a time like this.

at that time.

“Chief Dojin Choi!”

A familiar voice was heard from behind.

A woman with her horn-rimmed glasses and ponytail hair slipped through her crevice.

“Congratulations on completing the mission!”

it was my sister

He was looking at me with a bright face that I rarely see at home.

“Thank you, Correspondent Choi Do-hee.”

“Are you hurt anywhere?”

family is family

Now, a more comfortable question arises.

“Yes, no.”

Actually, I have to say that I don't.

My sister is smiling right now, but her eyes are full of worry.

It's like looking around my body to see if I'm really okay.

I need some reassurance.

The interview continued.

The wounded, of course, were taken to the hospital along with the citizens.

wake up

Anyway, it's finally over.

body becomes drowsyIs it because of the tension?

I also answered the previous questions one by one.

Questions such as being stronger than Carlyson and Qiowei, by what power did you defeat the two, and how did you grow so much after the operation to retake Jeju Island?

It was not avoided by avoiding it.

“Chief Dojin Choi! I have one question!”

Towards the end of the question, a reporter raised his hand.

“What kind of team is the Black Wings?”

That's a good question.

No, that's a nice question.

For once, I wanted to tell you about our team members.

“It's a very, very good team that doesn't shy away from 10-star gates, and actually did well against the Mithril Golem in it. I am very grateful and proud to be the leader of such a team.”

These words, as before, were broadcast live by broadcasters around the world.

The name of the Black Wing is widely known.

* * *

Hunter Hospital near the 10-star gate.

These are wounds that can be healed with potions, but I came here for now.

This is because monsters are monsters too, and they get so many traps that they may have an infection.

“Nothing special.”

"thank you."

“Just get enough rest.”

Fortunately, I guess I just need to get some rest.

Whoa.

Now it's really over.

Rululala hum comes out of nowhere.

It's not just about successfully completing a mission.

The final reward of this mission, which I had not been able to check because I was crazy, was floating in front of my eyes.

[Strength: Lv.99]

[Health: Lv.96]

[Agility: Lv.96]

[Animation: Lv.84]

[Mana: Lv.87]

His strength is a whopping level 99.

His stamina and agility were slightly lower at level 96.

It rises all the way up to level 84.

Mana rises even more ridiculously to level 87.

crazy

No, I can't even explain it with words.

The influence of the Mithril Golem was great.

Almost hundreds of reminders of experience points came to mind at the moment of fighting and defeating him.

I didn't know it would be this far, though.

It's great.

I've been thinking about it for a while.

I wonder if the day will come when I will reach level 100 no matter what stats are.

But that day seems to be coming soon.

My heart is pounding already.

One more thing to pay attention to is mana.

Originally, it was similar to vitality, but suddenly it increased by 3 levels.

Is it the influence of the sword?

Or the effect of mana acceleration?

whatever it is is good

As long as you climb well.

Mana Acceleration is a great ability even if you think about it again.

Gumgang is almost twice as strong.

Not really that far, but still.

You cut the mithril golem, didn't you?

Again, her hum is humming.

The corners of the lips curl up and rise.

But after a while, something happened that made me feel better.

“Thank you. Because of you, the citizens were able to stay safe.”

Prime Minister Berton personally visited and congratulated the Hunters.

It's not that it feels good to hear this from a high-ranking person.

I was happy.

that the mission was accomplished.

That's how it protects the citizens.

That's why I want to be a Hunter.

“If you lack or need anything, just tell me. I will look after you as much as possible until the day you return home.”

"no. Thank you for your words.”

Hunters said together.

Currently, Berton is in a dizzying situation with only monsters and gate halls cleaned up.

You will also be busy taking care of the country's affairs.

“We are fine. Please focus only on national stability.”

“Thank you for understanding.”

Whatever you lack or need, you can get whatever you want even if you return to Korea anyway.

How many would you just drop from the headquarters right now?

A bounty, a bounty vacation... … Just imagining it opens my mouth.

Berton's side will take care of it when the situation is settled.

then you get it

“Are you Major Dojin Choi, the team leader of Black Wing?”

When the seat is finished.

Prime Minister Berton looked at me and said.

“Yes, Prime Minister.”

“He said he would have never been able to solve the 10-star gate without you?”

Yes it is

The Mithril Golem is also a Mithril Golem, so everyone must have been blocked in the process of crossing the barrier.

But she must have found a way.

I just shortened the time to figure out the way.

' Prime Minister Berton put a smile on his lips.

“The citizens were able to stay safe because they reduced the time it took to find a way.”

And tapped my shoulder.

“I think I can be where I am today because of you.”

Prime Minister Berton continued to say to me with a smile.

“You are not the only ones who have saved the citizens. You saved the whole Berton.”

That he saved the whole Berton.

In an instant, my heart felt warm.

* * *

A few days later, a special airship landing site.

After a short break, he returned to Korea.

I mean, it's only been 10 days or so, but I don't know why I'm so happy.

It was a little hard because

If you leave the house, you'll understand why there is a saying that you're a dog high school student.

Of course, that's a joke.

As hard as it was, it was rewarding and rewarding.

And this is basically my job.

My job has been decided since I came to the special forces.

So if something like this happens again, I'm going to run right back.

“Loyalty!”

“Loyalty.”

At the landing site, Lieutenant General Yoo Gyeong-pil and each of his staff were present.

It was just like this when I went.

I was greeted with a greeting to return to work safely after completing the mission.

I'm glad I was able to respond to that greeting.

“It was a lot of hard work.”

“Major Dojin Choi!”

Lieutenant General Yoo Kyung-pil approaches us with a brighter smile than ever.

And, starting with me, one by one we hold hands.

“Hahaha, Black Wing really saved our HQ flag. Are there any injuries?”

"Yes! No problem!”

“Good luck. I was wondering what to do if there is any problem with the valuable talents. Let's not do this here, let's get in. I have a lot to talk about.”

Just talking about the mission is a mountain.

Lieutenant General Yoo Kyung-pil followed immediately.

army unit.

another house.

We arrived there at lunch time, and by the time we finished talking, it was dinner time.

time goes by quickly

Of course, there was no choice but to stay in the 10-star gate for five days.There was no point in talking for an hour or two.

“Did I hold on to this for too long? You might want to rest.”

"no. I have had enough rest in Berton.”

“Haha, is that so?”

"Yes."

“Oops, I forgot about that.”

“Are you talking about that?”

“If you have completed your mission, shouldn’t you be treated worthy of it?”

It was about a prize.

The team members' ears perked up.

“First of all, take a full rest for the next full week.”

“Is it a full moon?”

“It’s been five days, five days since you were inside the 10-star gate. Thinking about the hard work, you should rest for a full month.”

"Thank you for caring me."

“Nerve. Of course, this is something I have to do.”

Then, a large bounty and performance were also mentioned.

The former is also the former, but from our point of view, the latter was more important.

Because it is directly related to the future.

I opened my mouth as if waiting.

“As I said, all of the team members burned themselves throughout the break through the 10-star gate, especially the last Mithril Golem. As a team leader, I was very grateful and happy.”

“Are you telling me to take good care of you?”

"That's right."

“If someone who doesn’t speak like that says something like that, does it mean that the team members are doing well?”

"Yes."

“Hahaha, I see. When it comes to performance, make sure it reflects more than you think.”

“Thank you, Commander.”

I have promised

When I come back, I will strongly appeal to Lieutenant General Yoo Kyung-pil about this mission.

But it's not just for that.

Just good.

He did so well that he wouldn't give in to Carlinson's American Knights or Chioway's gang.

I was just stating the truth.

“Look at me. Oh, just in case, don't even look at the troop while on vacation. You know it well, but when you come back, you never know when you will be able to rest like that again.”

"Yes, I understand."

I think it's something I say because I often train on weekends.

As of this time, I have no intention of doing so.

I don't know when I'll be able to rest again when I come back, and I have a lot of work to do.

I have to see my parents, my friends, and I have to watch Seong Da-kyung, but I am worried that the full moon will not be enough.

“Good job, my teammates.”

“The manager did a great job too.”

“I’ll see you in a week or so. In the middle of the day, we have a big dinner party at the right time. Then I'll shoot with a very expensive one."

"Five! Good. Then let’s go first!”

I left the commander's office and exchanged brief greetings with the team members.

Everyone was excited at the thought of going on vacation, and they flew through the troops like the wind.

I moved right away.

with one companion.

“Captain, you worked hard.”

This is Captain Young So-jin.

We live together so we decided to go together.

“The deputy chief worked hard. But why are you respectful? There are only the two of us.”

“Oh, it’s become a habit.”

Big, clear eyes look at me and smile.

“These days, respectful words seem more comfortable. Because there is not much time to be alone.”

"uh… … That's right. Whether in the unit or in the mission area, I always move with my teammates.”

"Yes."

In the past, I often saw it from the outside, but the fortress is not that easy either.

Not to mention it's only when you're on duty, because your usual training is very tight.

On weekends, I get to see Seong Da-kyung with my family.

Hmm.

Would you like to set aside some time to see each other?

It was time to think.

“It would be nice to take some time to look at it.”

Captain Young So-jin spoke up first.
