Episode 64

Old Chooser (4)

“For now, let’s not tell anyone what happened today.”

Pungjon’s secret level.

Theo’s bee muse.

oath and oath of allegiance.

It was full of things that would not be good to be known to the outside right away.

“Yes. Okay. The morale of the troops will probably not be good either.”

“yes. So while I’m in the base, Evelyn treats me comfortably. Let go of the words.”

“Yes? But how do I… … !”

“Isn’t Evelyn involved there? I’m a consignee Then it is natural.”

“But… … .”

“Do not worry about it. I’ll catch up soon somehow.”

It meant that he would somehow achieve a rise in rank.

“Could you please?”

“You laugh. why? Do you think you can’t?”

“It won’t be easy.”

“I have to do it anyway. did you say I will become the captain of the Baek Gap Yonggi in five years.”

“… … .”

“That’s not something I said in vain.”

“Yes. All right.”

“So.”

Theo looked straight into Evelyn’s eyes and said.

“First I… … No, please let me go first, senior.”

* * *

Theo and Evelyn cleaned up everything and returned to headquarters.

It was already time, the sun was setting in the west.

“hahahahaha! Theo, you’re the last one! A rookie should move fast, what if he moves so slowly as soon as he enters the unit?”

Holcus became very excited about the fact that there was an area where he had beaten Theo for the first time.

It was because he and Erica had already passed the aptitude test and returned.

With this, Theo will also know my true face!

With that thought in mind, Holcus approaches Theo, who just landed on the ground.

“Uh, uh… … ?”

He stopped involuntarily.

‘nice… … right?’

The size of the wyvern brought by Theo was much larger than his new partner.

His partner was obviously a large dragon, so he was on the larger side of the wyvern, but he made it look small.

He was the size of a bear, and he became a bit sullen.

Krrr?

At that time, Holcus’ partner ‘Spatium’ revealed a lot of teeth to Umbra.

“Hey, what’s wrong with him all of a sudden!”

While Holkes is flustered when his partner, who had behaved calmly, did not listen,

-Muh, what is it?

-I can’t believe that… … Umbra, isn’t it?

-what? You made Umbra your partner? What a fool for not listening to that?

-Nonsense!

– What the hell did you do?

The members of the Baekgap Dragon Corps, who discovered Umbra late, became noisy.

There was no one who did not know the heartbreaking story of Umbra at Baekgap Dragon Base.

Even so, everyone was worried because of his personality of not choosing a partner, but it was impossible for a newcomer to tame Umbra!

-The best equipment in the millennium is different, isn’t it? Wow, are you looking for talent here too? Hyeonta is coming hard… … .

The crew stared blankly at Theo and Umbra.

The rumor that he might have to re-discuss passing the test because his return was too late came into his own.

Meanwhile,

Theo and Evelyn approached Julius.

“I returned after the aptitude test of Senior Swordsman Evelyn Nereville and Trainee Swordsman Theo Ragnar. Theo Ragnar reports that he has been tested fit and has been assigned as a partner in Umbra, the third nest.”

“yes. great job. It looks like our unit’s troublemaker has finally taken over.”

Evelyn nodded at Julius’ words.

“Fortunately, Te… … The sum of Oh and Umbra seemed to fit very well.”

“Oh, is that what you mean?”

Julius stroked his chin with his hand, his eyes shining.

The highest scorer of the Flowering Ceremony and the troublemaker of the White Dragon’s Nest.

It was clear that the combination of the two would be a great force for the Baekgap Yonggidae.

It meant that the range of tactics that could be used was widened.

“The unit deployment could be done more smoothly.”

Julius looked at Evelyn and grinned, as if a good idea had come to his mind.

Startle!

Evelyn stood on her back involuntarily.

‘What else are you going to do… … ?’

She knew perfectly well that accidents would happen when Julius always smiled like that.

So I tried to stop it quickly,

“Now, it’s late, so let’s end today’s convocation! let everyone break up Details regarding troop deployment will be delivered tomorrow. more!”

“thank you for your effort!”

“thank you for your effort!”

“Oh, and drink in moderation. If you hear someone else suffered from a hangover… … know?”

“I will keep that in mind!”

“I will pay attention so that such an unfortunate incident does not happen again!”

“Anyway, everyone snouts. Disband anyway!”

“see you tommorow!”

“Have a good night, chief!”

Like that,

A noisy day of nomination ceremonies and aptitude tests was all over.

* * *

After the troop deployment was over, the next step was, of course, the welcome party for new recruits.

“Junior, junior! Can I talk now?”

Selford sneaked up next to Theo, who was still standing in an unfamiliar environment, holding a beer mug.

Theo laughed involuntarily.

‘Didn’t he quietly say something even before the aptitude test started?’

Of course, it must have been because Erica and Holcus were together.

Shelford’s eyes were mostly fixed on Theo.

“Because while I’m here, the status of being a member of the 100th Air Force precedes the status of having the right to succeed.”

“right? ha ha! It’s nice to be cool. Arin, look! You say you can let go now!”

At Selford’s cry, Arin, who was with the other colleagues, sighed and shook his head.

“By the way, how did you come to have Umbra as your partner? Because of that, everyone is curious and upset.”

“that’s… … .”

Theo hid the incident related to Pungjon and appropriately dramatized it to explain the incident with Umbra.

Then, the other members who were curious about the reviews began to gather around one by one,

At some point, everyone was busy bursting into admiration whenever Theo said something.

-Oh oh!

-That kind of thing… … !

-You mean that?

-Sobbing! It’s a story you can’t hear without tears.

Some even burst into tears while drunk.

Looking at them,

Theo was able to read the atmosphere flowing throughout the Baekgap Yonggidae.

‘I knew they were a bit more free compared to other units, but they’re all faithful in expressing their emotions.’

Ragnar was very conservative when it comes to rank relationships, as meritocratism prevailed because of the law of strong self-respect.

However, although there was a hierarchical relationship in Baek Gap-Yong Kidae, at least there was no insult to character.

‘It must be because of Julius’ theory that he wants everyone to be like brothers.’

Thanks to that, Theo, Erica, and Holcus didn’t have such a territorial attitude.

Even though it wasn’t long after the aptitude test was over, Theo was able to naturally blend into their atmosphere.

After all the welcome party.

Leaving behind the members’ greetings to see you tomorrow, Theo moved to Dongbaek Palace.

It was late in the morning, and the moon was already floating over his head.

‘army unit… … la.’

Theo paused for a moment and looked at the moon.

Feelings that are hard to express in words filled my heart.

A sense of fulfillment I hadn’t felt in my previous life.

The thought that this life was really very different from the previous one dominated my head.

“Why are you standing there so graciously? The one who never drank.”

Then, Theo turned his head to the voice behind him.

Holcus and Erica were approaching with slightly reddened faces.

“Didn’t you guys go back to your inn?”

Erica smiled and shook the beer can in her hand.

“Isn’t it too bad to finish the first round on a day like this?”

Theo laughed lightly as well.

I always feel it.

These siblings were very affectionate just by looking at them.

Just like the members of the 4th Gymnasium.

“There is a place I know well. Shall we go there?”

“Five! If it’s our master’s favorite restaurant, you’re always welcome.”

“great. Confiscate it instead.”

Theo snatched the beer can from Erica’s hand at once.

Erica was furious.

“what? Why!”

“In case you forgot, we are underage.”

“Damn it! Braided baby! Don’t you know that you’re fine after the flowering ceremony!”

“Exactly, after the Flowering Ceremony, they just turn a blind eye to drinking alcohol, doesn’t that mean you can drink alcohol?”

Erica’s face crumpled.

“Leave if you don’t like it.”

“Oh, you can just go! just go! Where are you?”

Erica grumbled and followed Theo.

Holcus looked at his sister, who was always being swayed by Theo, with curious eyes, then moved on.

The place where Theo arrived was, of course, the hideout pub in the 4th gymnasium.

“Oh, you’re finally here!”

“Guys, gather up! The young master is back!”

“what? Where are you?”

“Pahahahaha! Welcome, Bocchan. Everyone wanted to hear the martial arts story, so I thought I was dying of itching!”

Erica and Holcus were dumbfounded by the crowd pouring in for a moment.

Why are there so many people?

But Theo skillfully conversed with them, beckoning the two siblings to come in.

A place where you stumbled in.

Wellington and Ray were already sitting there.

“Are you here? You are very late.”

“Yes. Even taking an aptitude test. There was also Ray.”

“Yes… … .”

For some reason, Ray’s nose was slightly red, as if he was ashamed of being in a place with so many people.

It was completely different from the rumors of Sulbingum that he rarely expresses emotions.

Wellington said with a smile.

“I saw that people around me couldn’t get in and were hanging around, so I pushed them to go in and came in together.”

“My, when did I say that!”

“Or let’s just accept that I invited you to come in.”

“Are you kidding me right now?”

When Ray glared at him with his axe eyes, Wellington only chuckled.

At that time, Erica and Holcus approached behind Theo.

It felt like the pub was filling up when two big guys showed up.

“What happened to all this? Why are all of you, sannim and icy cravings, gathered here?”

“Why is there? Everyone gathered to have an after-party for the opening ceremony. Would you like a drink instead? The whiskey here is delicious.”

Wellington shrugged and held out the glass, and Erica’s face turned red.

“Oh, I thought you were just a gentleman, but you must be a gentleman with some sense?”

“Can’t you just stop talking about that bastard?”

“Then, Yangachi-san?”

“… … You just didn’t intend to throw away the word sannim.”

“Whoop whoop. Wouldn’t it be fun if a nickname you’d given once changed easily?”

Erica was about to receive a glass of whiskey when a hand suddenly blocked her stomach.

It was Theo.

“Yes?”

“No drinking for minors.”

“Let’s just drink this. Your friend gave it to you, right?”

“I can’t. Leave if you don’t like it.”

“Aww! You really are a bastard who is worse than this kkondae!”

“Poop! They say it’s not fun if you change your nickname easily. Prince Theo has changed.”

“Well, you too.”

“Yes?”

“I will confiscate it.”

“Oh no, Prince Theo! On a day like today, if you show some flexibility… … !”

Wellington stopped laughing at Erica and screamed when the entire whiskey he drank was taken away.

Of course, the two of them’s resistance was not eaten by Theo.

“I don’t know why you eat something so tasteless, you should just drink orange juice comfortably.”

Twap Twap Twap.

Holkes, who was drinking a child’s orange drink with a straw in the seat next to him inappropriately for his size, shook his head as if he didn’t understand.

“So, Bocchan!”

“Some saga!”

“No, since all the people in the top ranks have gathered like this, please tell us the story behind it!”

The members also gathered around the five of them without realizing it, and their eyes twinkled.

Ray shook his body feeling burdened by them,

‘… … Fun.’

Didn’t leave or leave.

-Because this place seemed like a new world to Ray, who was always lonely.

from a very young age.

Ray, who always lived alone with his illness, had no concept of hanging out with anyone.

But.

As I met Theo and met the people around him one by one, I suddenly had that thought.

– I want to hang out.

friend,

wanted to be
