Chapter 309
Military Inner Circle Command, Joint Headquarters.
Standing tall at the center of the headquarters, this building was modest and did not live up to its name. The only characteristic was that the outer wall was surrounded by alchemy steel, and thanks to this, it was fine even during the rampage of the wooden snake.
Before I even entered, a sharp altercation was taking place inside.
“This is unprecedented! A meeting with an enemy who had trampled on the headquarters a while ago! Doesn’t it look like he rolled up his tail and ran away before he even started a fight!”
An elderly captain pointed and shouted. The profound cry containing the energy had the power to resonate through the steel-covered building, but those who actually heard the voice passed it lightly.
“I am also unprecedented. They said it was a meeting, so I dug a trap and waited, but they just sat down and screamed.”
“You bastard…! There’s nothing that can’t be said about not having blood on your head! If it hadn’t been for an order, I would have corrected the tantrum right away!”
“Will you try? It’s comfortable for me too.”
Sparks fly from the eyes of some of the generals. Even today, the regressors were in conflict. are you flint Wherever they collide, spark a spark.
I sighed and opened the door.
“now. Generals. Don’t surround a little kid and glare at him. They say it’s not good to see them because they’re territorial and territorial.”
“What are you again!”
At that moment, fierce gazes turned to me. My stomach feels stuffy. Hmm, the spirit of a general, and that of a general, is not good for health. Being weak, I quietly hid behind Historia, avoiding the silent pressure.
“…” said Historia.
“Historia! A traitor to the military!”
“What on earth did you lack for, why did you abandon the military!”
Immediately, the direction of hostility changed to Historia.
Originally, I don’t fall for this childish trick, but maybe it’s because the opponent is Historia. The generals stare as if they are looking at their enemies. Or did he cast a resentful gaze toward his daughter who had been tricked by a bastard and left the house?
Historia glanced at me and muttered.
“…No matter how you think about it, you are being bullied.”
Historia gave the general a dutiful salute, then headed towards the regressor with me behind her.
The regressor, who was sitting alone, pretended to know when he saw me and Historia.
“Why are you here so late? I was running into these guys all alone. It would have been easier if we had fought. Talking is annoying and tiring.”
“Let’s try to solve it with words rather than force. As long as you have a good conversation, you can get most things done smoothly.”
As I pulled the chair next to me, the regressor glanced at me and pursed his lips.
‘The whole sound of the heavenly sword.’
Then the regressor’s voice came into my ear as if whispering.
[…Like that mysterious creature that called itself Young’s Ark?]
“A strange creature. I am the same human. He was the one who fully cooperated to resolve our conflict.”
[joy. He gave back his heart to Tyrkanjaka and himself back to that monstrous creature? what the hell are you Are you an errand boy who finds lost items?]
“Similar. I’ve said it occasionally, but I’m a magician. He is excellent at reading and shaking the opponent’s mind.”
[You speak well. If you’re that confident, why don’t you show off your skills this time?]
Okay, reception.
“all right. Mr. Shay before that. Whispering into each other’s ears is a bit masculine, but can you please stop? I know the importance of whispering, but it tickles me because it sounds like I just put my mouth to my ear.”
“What what?”
“Me too, I don’t think like this among men, but I wonder if my face naturally blushed because I had a strange impression of Mr. Shay.”
“no it’s not! I’m not interested either! Stop talking nonsense with a calm face!”
Then, Aji, who was on standby outside the door, stuck her head out and said.
“bruise?”
“You didn’t call!”
Aji tilted his head and disappeared from sight again. I slightly bowed my head toward the regressor who was sulking.
“How are you? I can create this level of agitation with just a few words.”
Only then did the regressor, who realized that he had been fooled, growl with a red face.
“Don’t do that to me! Do it over there!”
“They are old soldiers. There is no corner to make fun of.”
“You mean I have it?!”
Just as the regressor was about to grab my collar, someone came through the door. He was an ordinary man with no distinctive features, so he wouldn’t be remembered very much. ‘Ziekhrund’, wearing a black uniform without a medal and even the buttons painted in ink, said with an expressionless expression.
“It’s upsetting. If you want to have such a secret conversation, do it outside… Oh no.”
what is that man In the middle, I suddenly wanted to go sideways. When did you finish your disguise? Hilde, who transformed into ‘Sieghrund’, muttered when she saw the regressor.
“With men, you can’t do it outside.”
“hey!”
“Oh, I will correct it. It is a sin that must not be done whether outside or inside.”
“So no!”
Unlike the hot-headed regressor, the generals were happy to see him.
“Captain Sieghrund. I waited!”
“I kept you waiting. It took a while to gather information and listen to the opinion of the general headquarters. Since you have brought something that you can fully understand, leave this meeting to me.”
‘Sieghurund’ said that and went to the table of honor. In the meantime, the regressor, whose medicine was high, shouted while pointing his finger at ‘Sieghurund’.
“You are talking! Why are you like that?! You looked like a short woman until just now!”
It was a counterattack of conversion on the part of the regressor, but Sieghrund calmly handed it over while fiddling with the documents.
“No matter how much you like indigo, don’t assign your ideal type to me. No, it’s not an ideal type, but an identity?”
“No, you must be in disguise…”
But no one listened to the regressor’s words. The generals, forgetting their anger for a moment, pointed to the regressor and whispered.
“Youngke is a girl?”
“What nonsense are you talking about?”
“Is this the type of qigong that gives side effects to the head? no wonder. That is an achievement that is difficult to achieve at that age.”
The more I tell the truth, the more I get treated as a crazy person. The regressor, who felt unjust about this unfair treatment, now looked at me with some hope.
‘Exercise your skills! It’s a chance for you to be active!’
I faithfully lived up to that expectation.
“Mr Shay. When it comes to slander, fun is more important than truth. Even if there is such a truth, it is too sudden and uninteresting for them to accept it, so there is no way to react. If possible, do it like me.”
“You know that what you do to me is obscene!”
In the meantime, Historia, who was sitting next to me, muttered with a bitter face.
“…Now, even when I see cuties, it doesn’t feel like someone else’s business.”
“I told you not to call me that way! Without knowing anything!”
“I know his true face. I understand your situation, so there is no need to explain.”
“Uh huh…?”
‘Then comrades…?’
Don’t be so impressed. How low is the ignition point of the mind.
Standing in the middle of the controversy, ‘Sieghrund’ said while organizing the documents.
“From the beginning, the General Headquarters did not want to create more conflict with them than was necessary. If you fight, the damage is great, but the gains you get from fighting at the risk of it are not deserved. They threatened to drive them out or tried to solve them with minimal espionage. All failed.”
“Eww…! What the hell is the reason for such atrocities?”
“They said it was to prevent a war.”
bang. The general hit the table with his fist. At the moment when the round table, which had a diameter of 3m, was about to tip over, the regressor slipped his support into the corner. The round table, which had been bouncing around, trembled under the weight of the jizan, then calmed down in an instant.
The general, defeated in the battle of strength, shouted with a little bit of pride.
“Sounds funny! Is it a smoke screen even after coming here? You can’t just ask for a country’s important event to be canceled like a child’s play, just tell the real purpose!”
“joy. okay. you won’t believe I knew you would…”
“It doesn’t matter if you can believe it. Distrust is the duty of a general, and the military state always judges by its standard. This judgment is also based on the standards of the military.”
There was a strange echo in ‘Sieghrund”s vocalization, so I felt like I had to listen to that voice for some reason. ‘Sieghurund’, who interrupted the words of the general and the regressor, continued to speak.
“First, let me tell you about the damage caused by this raid. Although the damage to the general soldiers was not that great, the Chimera Beans stored for military rations were completely lost. It can’t be recycled because it’s turned into a tree snake. There was a big setback in the ability to conduct war.”
“This is not what those intruders did!”
“no. It is the power of the druids who protect the tree of immorality.”
‘Sieghrund’ cut off the general’s protest and said.
“Joo Ji-ryuk, a holding company in charge of food improvement. Following orders, they risked their lives to approach the Tree of Virtue and return in search of a large fruit called the Chimera Bean. Thanks to this, the military was able to overcome the food shortage. However, as everyone knows, there is a guardian of the Burnt World Tree in the Tree of Immorality.”
In the middle of the lush forest stretching to the south of the county, there is a tall tree. The World Tree was burnt down due to some kind of incident, and instead, the tree of immorality took root in the ashes and sprang up.
Rumor has it that all the fruits in the world grow on that one tree, and the military dispatched an investigation team, where they found or invented Chimera Bean, the 7th major invention of the military.
Of course, there was Nevida’s connivance in the process, but they don’t know that fact.
“Druid Nebida…?”
“But Nevida said she had no interest in planting anything outside the Forest of Immorality! Do you have a reason to visit because of Chimera Beans now?”
“I don’t even know that. Because I don’t know everything. Maybe they called. However, we have to fully consider the threat and have reason to wait and see the situation for a while. That is the decisive reason for this meeting to take place.”
The generals did not like this situation itself, in which the military was shaken by external threats. However, since they were also soldiers, they knew that a two-sided front with the enemy was possible, but a two-sided front with food shortages was impossible.
‘Sieghrund’ turned his back on them and declared towards the regressors.
“So the General Headquarters has decided to temporarily truce.”
It is a de facto declaration of surrender. The generals cleared their throats in dissatisfaction. At the same time, the regressor suddenly burst out with a mixed reaction of astonishment.
“what? really? an army? A truce?”
“Isn’t that what you persistently asked for? Do you have any problem? Could there be any other hidden purpose?”
When ‘Sieghurund’ asked sharply, the regressor returned to his half-standing body and feigned composure.
“No, I think I’ve come to my senses now.”
‘what? do you really do this? Until now, even if I was beaten to death, I didn’t stop even if I destroyed it in every way!’
Maybe you couldn’t stop because you tried to beat me to death? Regressor? The way to stop a war is to destroy the country. If you die, you won’t be able to fight, so what’s the difference between killing to stop a fight?
“There are only conditions.”
“then. Of course you are. What?”
‘Don’t believe it. it’s an army I might do something weird again! What are you trying to do with the impossible? Is it a ploy to separate us in order to solve the impending crisis?’
Surprisingly nothing. ‘Sieghrund’ presented reasonable conditions as if mocking the vigilant regressor.
