Chapter 24: Those who protect (2)

“That winter, that friend took the position of a commander of a hundred men.”

A life that began with the memories of the first regression.

The man acquired all sorts of hidden treasures worldwide before others, monopolised skills and blessings while keeping the required people next to him. Thanks to that, he was able to become a commander of a hundred men at a young age despite hiding half of his strength.

“He had a hundred subordinates, and they were all people who had their strengths acknowledged.”

Thinking back, even their faces were hard to remember but they had been as precious as his own life in the past. He couldnt remember the feelings he had towards them though. Like a black silhouette appearing behind a hazy fog, he could only remember the fact that there had been such a thing in the past.

“Back then, wars were breaking out around the country as organisations of demons began moving.”

To him, the small and large battles werent of any threats. He had hidden a part of his strength and going to the dungeons and battlefields was like a job he merely had to fulfil.

In that period of time when everyone started acknowledging him and he continued building up a career, he was satisfied by the second opportunity he was given, and longed for such happiness to continue forever.

“While going through various battlefields with his subordinates, that friend met a woman.”

Ha Saetbyul.

Being a superhuman of a rare operator position, she was a woman that had taken care of children at an orphanage before the war, before awakening as a superhuman.

The ability she awakened with was a [Danger-sensing Eye]. It was an ability that suited the position of anoperator that served as a person suggesting the direction of the troop, and after a partial destruction of the Chungcheong district, she had voluntarily entered the army.

Despite not receiving a proper military education, the Korean governments policy was rapid. The woman who cleaned floors and sang lullabies for children at night until the day before, was forced onto the battlefield immediately.

“She was a really faint-hearted woman.”

Ha Saetbyul was a coward. She feared the battle and whenever a war broke out, she was the first one to hide and would later hear an earful from the man. Due to her fear of blood, she couldnt even stare properly at a wounded soldier.

There was a time when she had been at the back as a noncombatant member, and had an arrow scrape past her leg. In front of others, she acted composed but when she was with him, she whined tremendously and exaggerated the pain.

Perhaps it was natural because the battlefields were too horrendous for those that lived daily lives.

Did a sight like that stir up the protective instinct within him? Although it was something he could hardly understand now, the man from back then slowly fell for the woman. Who other than me would help a coward like this – it was probably a naive thought along the lines of that.

“As the war continued, the woman slowly opened her heart to the man as well.”

In a place destroyed by the anti-aircraft bombardments, when the two were the only ones remaining inside a hole, the man spoke to the woman casually out of the blue. And the woman replied.

Perhaps because they both required a place to lean on, they quickly got closer and the soldiers congratulated them.

“The two promised their future. When the war ends, they would draw their future together.”
