Episode 34

As if I had flipped a switch, I shook out all the emotions in my head and filled the empty space with senses.

At the same time, time slowed down and the surrounding scenery and the location of the opponent were transmitted in real time.

There is only one streetlight far away, the surroundings are dark, and the space is narrow because there are outer walls of buildings on both sides.

In contrast, the opponents are all healthy adults, each carrying a sharp knife.

Sigh.

As I exhaled the air between my front teeth, time, which had slowed down, returned to its original state.

At that moment, the frozen situation broke and my arms and legs moved reflexively.

Kwajik!

“Ugh!”

He kicked his opponent, who was flustered and didn’t know what to do, and crushed his face, including his nose.

I made sure to strike his falling head back down so that he couldn’t get up.

‘one.’

“What the hell!”

At that moment, another opponent, who had come to his senses late, came in and stabbed me in the stomach with a knife.

widely!

But I had already measured the distance, so I easily dodged the attack and forcibly grabbed his wrist.

“profit!”

The startled man struggled to pull the fly out, but it was not easily pushed away.

I grabbed his hair with my other hand and kicked him in the face, right on the bridge of his nose.

Kwajik!

Along with the bloody sound of a broken nose, red blood stained both hands.

‘two.’

I casually snatched the knife he was holding and twirled it gently between my fingers.

Suddenly, enemies with distorted faces like demons were rushing towards me.

Bang!

He pushed away the knife flying towards his head with the same blade and lightly parried the attack.

Kikkik!

The opponent’s index and middle fingers were completely cut off with a terrible sound of blades being cut.

“Kyaargh, turn it off!”

He covered her mouth to prevent her from screaming and hit her temple with the handle of the knife.

Kwajik!

‘three.’

Yeah, that’s what it felt like. The distance between the arms, the fingers holding the knife, everything was familiar.

I took a step like a ball and then turned my body towards the opponent who was running towards me.

“Eww!”

One of them charged straight at me, while another stabbed me in the back from a blind spot.

Phew!

“Huh!”

Without a moment’s hesitation, he threw the knife he had captured and hit the leg of the man running ahead.

‘four.’

At the same time, he turned his body 180 degrees and dodged the attack that was aimed at his back.

“Huh, huh?”

As if he didn’t know how to dodge, the opponent lost his posture and began to stagger.

So I quickly tripped him and threw him over, turning his ankle in the opposite direction.

Crunch!

The Achilles tendon is ruptured.

‘five.’

After dealing with five people in an instant, I caught my breath and wiped the blood off my face.

The breath that came out of my mouth seemed just like the steam from a machine that had just finished warming up.

In fact, his body, which had become just the right amount of hot, was begging to fight more.

I opened and closed my fist a couple of times and turned my head to look for my opponent.

Gulp.

But strangely enough, the surrounding atmosphere was cold, almost as frozen as ice.

“What, what is this kid doing?”

The rest of the guys couldn’t rush in recklessly despite their numerical superiority.

As I walked slowly, the guys slowly backed away and soon ran away.

Beep beep beep-!!

“Stop right there!”

But at that moment, a whistle blew and soldiers with flashlights came rushing in.

It seems that one of the residents passing by reported it, and the area became noisy as a result.

The punks who tried to run away were caught by the soldiers one by one and tied with ropes.

“Eek!”

When I turned my head, the student council president, who had been trembling with shock, suddenly got up and ran away.

I followed her, grabbed her by the hair, and dragged her to a place where there were no streetlights.

“Over here! Help the people here… … Ugh!”

bang!

He forcefully covered my mouth to prevent me from screaming and made me look straight in the face.

“I won’t say it twice, so listen carefully.”

The blood still dripping from his hands stained the student council president’s face red.

In that moment of deep silence where I couldn’t even breathe, I warned with sincerity and murderous intent.

“Don’t ever show up in front of Yebin again. The moment you hear even a little bit of me, I’ll come find you and show you myself.”

I glared at him with bloodshot eyes and quietly placed my index finger over my lips.

“Next time, it will never end like this. You, your parents, your siblings, your friends. No, everyone who has anything to do with this will die. If you’re curious, you can check later. If you understand, nod your head.”

The student council president began nodding madly, tears and snot streaming down her face.

Already losing his mind from fear, his pants were soaked with urine that was flowing out excitedly.

Wood crack!

I looked down at him with cold eyes and then I stepped on both of his ankles, breaking them.

Kwajik!

And he didn’t stop there, he also broke the wrist on the same side so he couldn’t use his crutches.

“Eeeeek!”

The student council president, unable to bear the pain, eventually fainted, exposing the whites of his eyes.

Since the bone itself has been broken into pieces, you will either be disabled for the rest of your life or will have to be hospitalized.

It’s a great pity.

If we had met outside, I would have killed you.

But I didn’t know that in this world, not being able to walk might be a punishment worse than death.

Click!

After finishing everything like that, I took a cigarette out of my pocket and quietly put it in my mouth.

Soldiers who had just discovered the scene came rushing in and looked at me with astonished faces.

I responded by blowing out smoke and quickly holding out both hands as if to grab him.

It was refreshing.

* * *

If this were normal South Korea, he would have been immediately charged with assault, let alone handcuffed.

Of course, I was prepared for that level of punishment, so even if I was immediately detained, I had no room for excuses.

But the violence on campus began to take a strange turn.

This was because the numerous criminal acts of the men who had been arrested at the scene were being revealed one after another.

It was really diverse, starting from small things like violence, extortion, and blackmail, to large things like rape and special assault.

What was most shocking was that none of the 11 people were on the shelter entry list.

They were literally illegal intruders, not refugees who entered through formal procedures.

Of course, the student council president seemed completely unaware of this fact, but it was clear that he had instigated it, so he had to be handcuffed along with him.

When Captain Kang heard this news, he was furious and decided to investigate the incident himself.

But maybe it helped that they crippled him instead of killing him?

Thanks to that, I was released from detention under the somewhat strange pretext of ‘excessive’ self-defense.

‘uncle!’

Yebin, who was waiting in front of the detention cell, cried again for a long time as soon as she saw me.

I spent the day trying to appease Yebin and stop the group that was running wild and threatening to kill them, without even having time to complain about being tired.

After such a hectic time, the day I promised with Captain Kang finally arrived.

My companions and I woke up early in the morning and walked towards the main gate of the campus.

“I’m really sorry… … .”

“Why are you apologizing again? It’s not like you don’t want to go or anything.”

“That’s right, Hyunsoo. Please take this opportunity to get some rest and take good care of our Yebin.”

Private Lee Hyeon-su, who had injured his thigh last time, ended up getting his wound worse after moving too hard.

This time, I had no choice but to stay at the base and rest, while also protecting Yebin.

I gave the student body president a proper warning, but I needed someone by my side for the time being.

“So, get well soon.”

“yes!”

We finally arrived at the main gate, patting Private Lee Hyeon-su on the shoulder as he looked gloomy.

“There are a lot of soldiers today.”

“I think this is the search team that Captain Kang was talking about.”

Unlike usual, the barracks in front of the main gate were crowded with soldiers rather than students.

They were a squad of seven, carrying rifles as well as melee weapons.

As we approached the barracks, Sergeant Jang ran up to us as if he had been waiting and saluted us.

“Loyalty! Nice to see you again.”

“Are you on duty today too?”

“Haha, it just so happened.”

When I greeted Corporal Jang, the soldiers around me naturally gathered around me.

Among them, a man who looked like a brown bear stood out and walked out, standing face to face.

Judging from his epaulettes, he was a squad leader, but strangely, he was not a corporal or a sergeant, but a newly commissioned staff sergeant.

“Nice to meet you. My name is Park Pil-gyu.”

“My name is Jang Dae-su.”

A big voice to match his large size, and hands that look sturdy like a pot lid.

But the gaze looking at me was filled with suspicion and a strange distrust.

“He’s a short-term sergeant like me. I’m only taking this position this time because we need someone with experience.”

“Oh, I see.”

Although Sergeant Jang explained earnestly, Sergeant Park soon turned his head away as if he was not interested.

But that was only for a moment, as he frowned at Kim Jin-kyung, who was standing next to the group.

“What? Is that woman going with you? We’re not talking about kids playing around right now.”

“… … What?”

Kim Jin-kyung, who had been standing still, raised one eyebrow as if she was dumbfounded.

Corporal Jang, who was surprised by this, hurriedly stopped Corporal Park Pil-gyu and made him step back.

“What’s wrong, Sergeant Park! The company commander clearly said he confirmed it. He was just an observer.”

“I don’t understand your decision, Captain. No matter what, you’re not a woman.”

It was not that I did not understand Sergeant Park’s feelings of having to go find his comrades right away.

But we also joined after careful discussion and agreement, but the response is a bit strange.

“If you don’t believe me, check it out.”

Jin-kyung Kim, unable to bear it any longer, approached him briskly, as if to attack him, wearing brass knuckles.

“Oh, oh! Hold on, sis!”

“If this continues, we’re going to be in serious trouble!”

The surprised Private First Class Oh Chan-il and Private First Class Lee Hyeon-su hurriedly stopped her.

Somehow, the team atmosphere became a mess even before leaving for Gwacheon.

I let out a deep sigh, sent the group back, and approached Sergeant Park Pil-gyu and asked him.

“Sergeant Park.”

“… … Please speak.”

“It’s something I decided after discussing it directly with your commander. Or should I go to the main office right now?”

If we were to argue any further, I was thinking of going to the main office where Captain Kang was, not Gwacheon.

When I firmly drew the line, Sergeant Park turned around with a dissatisfied expression.

“depart!”

Likewise, the squad members who had been looking at him with distrust followed Sergeant Park to the main gate.

Corporal Jang, who had been unable to do anything, finally sighed and apologized to me.

“I’m so sorry, Mr. Daesu.”

“it’s okay.”

During my active years, there were times when my main mission was to be dispatched to other sites.

Most of them were more than Sergeant Park, but there was absolutely no one who was less than him.

This level of prejudice is cute.

I tried to calm down Kim Jin-kyung, who was still whining, and pack my bike as I always did.

“Ah, Mr. Daesu! This is it for today.”

But Sergeant Jang stopped us and took something out of the barracks storage room.

It was none other than a luxurious electric bicycle that I remember as a fairly expensive brand.

“There are a few electric bicycles that I got from the private sector. Since speed is important, the company commander told me to send them out.”

It’s not quite a scooter or motorcycle, but it’s still a pretty fast electric bike.

It had an advantage over any other means of transportation, especially in that it was noiseless.

“Well then, have a nice trip!”

We left the main gate of the campus, leaving Sergeant Jang behind, who saluted us as always.

“How long will it take to get to Gwacheon?”

“It’s about 8.5km, so we should get there before the sun sets. Of course, if the road conditions are okay.”

If you pass Naksungdae and Sadang and go down Gwacheon-daero, you will reach Namtaeryeong.

Since they said they didn’t know the situation yet, they would have to go there in person to estimate the travel time.

We climbed onto our still awkward electric bikes and tried to pedal diligently.

“Huh? That kid’s coming here?”

But at that moment, Sergeant Park, who was running a long way ahead, approached us and informed us.

“The leader will take care of it on this side. You can either follow from the rear or stick close to the side. If you get in my way, I will really leave you behind.”

And after saying what he had to say, he quickly ran back to the lead group where his squad was.

Kim Jin-kyung raised her hand toward Sergeant Park, and Private Oh Chan-il also cursed.

But I was smiling strangely as if I found that Sergeant Park funny.

“Aren’t you angry, hyung?”

“What reason do you have to be angry?”

“No, that little green kid is doing that. He’s not that much older than me!”

Even with his face like that, he would be the same age as Sergeant Jang or a year or two older than Corporal Oh Chan-il.

When those kids rushed at me and said they wanted to fight, I couldn’t help but laugh.

“Just wait a moment.”

“yes?”

“I will come back smiling later.”

But I’ve never seen any of those kids hold their heads up straight until the end.

I leisurely pedaled my bike, laughing off the obvious ending.

After leaving Naksungdae Station, we headed to Gwacheon, Gyeonggi-do.
