Chapter 300: The Crossroads of Choice (2)
Mercenaries.
It is a job that is like a collection of prenatal battles.
Scott lived as a mercenary, toured numerous battlefields, worked as a spy, and often crossed the mountains day and night to survive.
So I was confident in my physical strength.
Although he may not be a great aura swordsman, his years as a mercenary prove that he is not an ordinary person.
however.
After only half a day, Scott already felt his limits.
‘… Dangerous.’
I was out of breath.
My mouth was dry, and only supplementing with water and sugar on the way could not suppress the feeling of dizziness.
The 40kg military uniform became heavier as time passed.
Roman Dmitry seemed to have no limit to his stamina, so he searched for winding mountain roads in the lead, and his stamina was driven to the edge of the cliff as he marched most of the way uphill.
“Whoop whoop whoop.”
Fallout.
constantly pondered.
Thinking that it would be really comfortable if he collapsed like this, Scott swallowed his disgust.
It was then.
pick.
dump.
A fallout occurred right in front of them.
People from the same background as Scott still have some physical strength, but there were many ordinary people among those who passed the enlisted test.
For them, there was a limit to enduring with evil.
Eventually, he lost his mind and fell to the floor, and Scott watched the scene in front of him with anxious eyes.
I was curious.
How Roman Dmitri will react to this situation in a situation where he said there is no fallout.
“I’ll pick you up and go.”
“Hunt. You take up the coat of arms.”
“okay.”
It was an incredible sight.
As expected by the seniors, one person took the fallen person’s military gear, and the other carried out simple measures, carrying the military gear forward and carrying the person on his back.
And then the march continued.
Not even a minute had passed since one person fainted, but they quickly rejoined the ranks and showed an expression that there was no problem.
they were crazy
Scott was dying to do his part, but the seniors’ expressions did not change even after dealing with the person who had fallen.
What kind of things have you experienced in the meantime?
The seniors, who must have been ordinary people like themselves, have been reborn as beings that cannot be called ‘general’ due to the years they spent with Roman Dmitri.
endured
gritted it
Looking at the back of the senior walking with the injured on his back, I thought I couldn’t collapse like this.
But the more you train.
Scott had to admit that willpower alone couldn’t solve all problems.
* * *
Only one day.
I was completely exhausted.
Even after the march, the training continued, and when the word that the training had ended, the new recruits sat down.
Everyone was out of breath.
Their complexion was pale due to the extreme physical training, and some people slumped their faces on the ground and continued to vomit.
Scott was no exception. After several crises, he lay down with a face like a living corpse.
It was hell.
The thought of my first day at Dmitry passing by gave me goosebumps.
at that time.
A disgruntled voice from the other side was heard.
“Is this fucking training? This is torture. Torture! Training is done to improve physical strength, but the training that goes to the point of forcibly dragging people who have fallen down only hurts people’s bodies. If this type of training continues, I seriously need to say it’s wrong.”
some motives.
They nodded.
Physical training is a step-by-step process, but the extreme training that skipped the process gave me embarrassment.
with stupid words.
People like Scott were tempted to quit if it weren’t for spying.
“If you think like that, just stop.”
Did someone read your thoughts?
The relatively calm complexion of the man spat out the words bluntly.
Looking closely, unlike the other new recruits, he was a former soldier of Dmitry and turned into a private.
The motive for complaining was hot.
“what?! what did you just say?”
“I told you. If you’re going to whine, stop.”
man’s name.
It was Randolph.
Randolph looked at his motive with a grin on his face.
“Why do you think you are doing this training? Just to show physical superiority? Or, as you say, to torture us? asshole-like babies. This is Dmitri’s daily life. Roman Dmitri-sama’s enlisted men endured such hellish training every time and based on their stamina, they achieved the victorious record that you heard about as you headed toward Dmitri.”
Inside Dmitry.
The enlisted men were out of the question.
When looking at the way they train, Dmitri’s soldiers have no choice but to acknowledge the existence of privates.
“You must have heard the rumors too. Kronos’ attack killed many people in Dmitri. Among them was a fellow named ‘Henderson’ who was a close friend of mine. Me and Dmitry’s people too. I don’t want the same thing to happen again. The only way to do that is to become stronger.”
Death, including Henderson.
People have a lump in their chest.
Although Roman Dmitri treated the casualties adequately, the lives of those who remembered Henderson were bound to change.
Randolph applied for enlistment with that meaning.
I did not simply wish for the benefits I received as a private, but I hoped that somehow I would become stronger and not make sacrifices like Henderson’s.
so that.
gritted it
When people like Scott were staggering as if they were going to collapse at any moment, Randolph supported them with their military uniforms and told them to cheer up.
It wasn’t possible because he had more stamina than Scott.
In the first place, I was able to finish the race to the end even though I had a face that looked like I was going to die because I had eliminated the option of falling out in my head.
“The seniors didn’t abandon us in the training you thought was hellish. Carrying the fallen people on their backs and carrying military equipment instead. That’s how I finished this training. It’s no different on the battlefield. The moment you become a member of Dmitri, even on the battlefield where death is rampant, the seniors will do anything to save us. We have become companions of such people, and in order not to become a burden on the battlefield, do not complain about the occasional physical training. If you simply hoped for good benefits, that would be a big mistake. Dmitri is not the utopia you think.”
finished talking
Scott was speechless at the sight of Randolph turning his head and catching his breath.
that.
So did others.
The words that they became friends of those who did not give up until the end left a deep impression in their hearts.
I was feeling it little by little now.
from Dmitry.
What it means to live as Roman Dmitry’s enlisted man.
* * *
Ten days passed.
There were no losers.
Some people persevered in their intense desire for Dmitri, but in the case of the secret spies, they couldn’t give up until they confirmed their martial arts.
Finally, it was time to pick the fruit.
Chris, who brought the new enlisted soldiers together, proceeded with ‘simbeop training’, the next course of basic adaptation training.
“I will briefly explain the concept of Danjeon.”
Swordsmanship presentation.
At that time, the concept of Dantian was spread to people.
However, it was necessary to teach the theory accurately, and the soldiers showed more shining eyes than ever before.
martial arts.
It is the core of the swordsmanship revolution.
People did not know what a great opportunity it was to be taught by Dmitry in the future that was about to change.
Everyone listened. The method of making a bowl of mana in Danjeon and managing mana through Danjeon gave a fresh shock.
Why couldn’t I have thought of this ingenious way?
When I heard the correct answer, I saw the road, but when I didn’t know the correct answer, it was an area I didn’t even dare to imagine.
yet.
“From now on, the name of the martial art you will learn is called Sura (??).”
started training in earnest.
Everyone sat cross-legged.
Although he showed a hard look in an uncomfortable position, he somehow performed the Sura method according to Chris’ explanation.
The explanation continued.
Sura mental method.
fell into consciousness
Chris’ voice faded and Scott tried to feel the mana as Sura explained.
‘I can’t feel the mana.’
The basic condition of Simbeop is sensitivity.
I had to feel the mana to take the next step, but no matter how much I concentrated, I couldn’t accept the energy of mana Chris explained.
In fact, it was a natural result. Scott is not an aura swordsman.
While working as a mercenary, he did not choose any means and methods to become a swordsman, but it was impossible to create a realm that his talent did not allow in the first place.
So when I was about thirty. Aura gave up.
He believed that pouring money and effort into an impossible task was not a very wise choice for a mercenary.
at last.
I ran into a limit.
He thought that this sura simbeop, which might be a golden opportunity for others, did not affect him.
1 hours.
2 hours.
3 hours.
I focused on the psyche.
There was no other option because it was time to focus on training despite knowing it was impossible.
however.
At some point, Scott had a strange feeling.
‘… no way.’
sometimes warm.
sometimes cold.
Scott, who stopped the simbeop with the energy that felt like tickling his skin, opened his eyes wide and looked at his Danjeon.
“Did I feel mana right now?!”
sure
It was a miracle.
* * *
My heart raced.
The more he learned the sura simbeop, the more Scott could not come to his senses at the great effect.
‘Nonsense.’
a lifetime.
lived on the battlefield
Scott decided that he needed an aura to survive, and he paid a high price for instruction from aura swordsmen who had a reputation in the Kronos Empire.
There was no effect. Even if a great person teaches, even if a great skill is taught.
In a situation where he couldn’t feel anything, Scott raised his voice, saying that this was a scam, but he said that the Aura Prosecutor was valuable because people couldn’t awaken ‘anyone’.
I had nothing to say.
What do you mean by lack of talent?
So I gave up.
He believed that the awakening of his aura was in the realm of the impossible, but the touch of mana on his skin sent him into ecstasy.
‘Alexander’s time is over. If even a person like me can feel mana in just a few hours, then from now on Roman Dmitri will be called the creator of the aura. Sura mental method. If I dedicate this to the Kronos Empire, I can be assured of wealth and glory. Chronos will also acknowledge that I have fully fulfilled my role.’
The goal was achieved.
Now, stealing the information is over.
If you tell the magic communicator you have prepared in advance how to perform the sura simbeop, your family’s life will be safe.
but.
I was worried.
Aside from the fact that Dmitri values people, the power of Sura Simbeop, which he casually taught even though he knew of the existence of the spy, was so shocking.
If it’s enough to create such a great technology.
Wouldn’t it be the era of Dmitri, not the Kronos Empire, in the future?
Looking back historically, there has always been a cataclysm in which the system of power is reversed, but isn’t he now at the center of it?
stood at a crossroads
He knew that his life and the lives of his family were at stake in a single judgment.
timely.
training is over
At the end of the first day of training, Chris talked about his future as the training director.
“For the time being, we will be training with Sura Simbeop as a basic base. If there is an existence that shows rapid growth or establishes a criminal record. That person will teach you a new martial art befitting your character.”
new martial arts.
It was an embarrassing word.
I couldn’t readily accept the fact that there was a next step in a situation where even the Sura Simbeop was great enough.
one asked.
“… It’s a new martial art. Do you mean that there is a greater martial art than this?”
Moment.
Chris laughed.
While Dmitri’s soldiers were trained in sura sim, characters like himself and Kevin were endowed with other martial arts.
It was the same with other enlisted men.
At first, the Sura Simbeop was sufficient, but after an all-out war with the Cronus Empire, it was decided that they needed a new opportunity to move on to the ‘next level’.
Chris said.
“The premise of your question is wrong. Sura Simbeop is not a great martial art in the first place. Dmitri has already established a martial arts system, and among them, Sura Simbeop is just a basic martial art to teach ‘beginners’.”
at that point.
People were astonished.
Regardless of whether it was true or not, this was a statement that was completely unacceptable.
the war is over
Roman Dmitri introduced the Demonic Cult system.
If the concept of Danjeon was disclosed openly to everyone, Dmitry decided that he needed a preferential treatment compared to him.
Chris was right.
Sura simbeop.
It was only a very basic low-level martial arts that was included in the ‘public disclosure target’ in the previous life.
The scale tipped sharply to one side.
For the spies who were agonizing between Dmitri and Cronus, a great ripple began to arise in their minds.
