The Discarded Warrior Party Came to Me - The Discarded Warrior Party Came to Me chapter 30

30 – Pretty and Nice New Companions

Inside the Kingdom of Kesley. Chae Eun-seo, who was talking with Kang Eun-hyuk [Real name: Kang Eun-chan], Asked a question as if it were her question.

“Why do you want to have a private alliance?”

While Chae Eun-seo accepted her alliance offer, she couldn’t understand Kang Eun-hyuk’s psychology of accepting it privately.

‘Isn’t it better to let everyone know about an alliance? It wouldn’t bother me that way.’

Kang Eun-hyuk had already made many enemies in the battle with Ham Eun-tae. Chae Eun-seo judged that it would be better to live comfortably by borrowing the position of third-class police chief now. Just when I was thinking that, Eunhyuk Kang answered.

“There is no particular reason for me to offer a private alliance. Because I want to take care of all the small pikes hiding behind me.”

“What do you mean by that?”

“Um… Let me put it simply. There must be quite a few people who think badly of me after seeing me fighting Ham Eun-tae right now, right?”

“Right. You know that.”

“Yes, of course I know. Because Ham Eun-tae seemed to be friendly with many people who flattered him here.”

“If you know, shouldn’t you openly proceed with the alliance with us? That way, no one will touch you.”

“No. How would those who hate me behave if I openly ally with you, a rank 3 peace officer? They won’t attack me externally, they’ll just sharpen their swords from behind. Then, when the opportunity arises, one day he will push me off the edge of a cliff.”

Kang Eunhyuk continued.

“But what if I look like I have no allies right now? Now that I’m a 31st-level peace officer from a 32nd-level, there must be one or two people who are arguing with me, right? By defeating Ham Eun-tae, he has already shown that he is superior in force, but not all the guys here can act rationally.”

Chae Eun-seo listened to the story and nodded.

“So, you’re pretending you have no power, and you’re going to hunt down those who are hostile to you and deal with them all?”

“Exactly. I’m going to be active here for a long time anyway, so wouldn’t it be better to take care of those who hate me in advance?”

“What if things go wrong? High-ranking peace officers might step in. Would that be difficult for you too?”

At Chae Eun-seo’s worries, Kang Eun-hyuk laughed inwardly.

‘No matter how much I’m a hero, I’m afraid of high-ranking police officers.’

I can assure you that even a first-class police officer can ram his head into the ground right away and make him crawl. But it is not yet time. When I look weak, I have to clearly distinguish between those who keep me in check and those who are on my side.

Aren’t friendships like that in the first place? Guys who pretend to be nice when they’re doing well, but when a friend fails in business or has a hard time, they lose money and stay away from each other. I hate the latter. That’s why I’ll catch those guys first, whether they’re strong or weak. Because there was something that happened to Goddess Abelida.

‘I have no intention of repeating the same until here.’

It is impossible to live without having a relationship with anyone at all. So, I will definitely set a pattern of action. At least I will clearly distinguish between those who are my enemies and those who are not. I will continue to doubt until I can believe. I will completely separate my people from those who are not. Thinking so, he said to Chae Eun-seo.

“If things go wrong, the third-class police officer can help. That’s why we’re making a secret alliance.”

“Um… Yes. I don’t think your words are bad. Originally, on the battlefield, one incompetent ally is more terrifying than dozens of capable enemies. It would be even worse if the ally had malice beyond incompetence. Eunhyuk Kang. Are you looking farther than you think? Acting like you is an idea that only high-ranking captains would do.”

Kang Eun-hyeok is now thinking of rising to the rank of high-ranking police officer. And, he’s currently working on a hunt before becoming a high-ranking peace officer. Heo Na-yoon also saw through Kang Eun-hyuk’s thoughts.

‘He’s definitely a fun kid.’

Chae Eun-seo thought so and talked to Kang Eun-hyuk.

“If you ever get into trouble, we will help you. I promise this part with all my honour. Of course, even if we run into trouble, you guys have to help. Do you know that part?”

I nodded.

“Yes, good job. You can leave now.”

– Jeobeok Jeobeok Jeobeok

The place where Kang Eun-hyuk left. Chae Eun-seo was staring blankly at the door he left.

‘I’m confident, capable, and born with the talent to be a leader.’

‘…And the word of mouth.’

Chae Eun-seo muttered to herself as she looked into her mirror at her own blue eyes.

“Kang Eun-hyuk said my eyes are special, not unusual…”

She smiled slightly.

“That’s not a bad word.”

***

After talking with Chae Eun-seo, I entered the office of the 32nd grade police officer, and the security officers were waiting for me.

“Brother! What are you doing! Didn’t you come here by chance?!”

Kim Tae-gun making a fuss. I shook my head and replied.

“Don’t make a fuss because you didn’t get hit. Anyone who sees it will know that I am your older brother. It wasn’t long before we met.”

Then, Kim Tae-gun looked at me with a shocked face.

“Tongue… Brother, how could you say that… Do you mean that I am uncomfortable?”

“No.”

But Kim Tae-gun was making a sullen expression in the corner.

‘Why is a big bastard doing that?’

I easily ignored Kim Tae-gun and entered the office.

Im Yuna talked to me.

“We are about to be promoted to level 31. There is a procedure, so I don’t immediately get promoted, but now I can get out of the small office and live in a bigger place.”

“I know.”

“Thank you. To be honest, I’ve seen many captains while I was in the 32nd level police force, but I’ve never seen a captain like him. He doesn’t even welcome you, he knows how to fight for his comrades…”

She looked at her land and crumpled a look of disgust.

“I don’t understand why you suddenly say this, do you? It was the worst.”

Soon, after loosening his expression, he looked at me and lowered his head.

“Anyway, thank you for this. You don’t know how relieved I felt when you took revenge on Ham Eun-tae. Please let me know if there is anything you need my help with.”

I nodded and moved back into the office to sit down. Then, Ahn Ye-jin next to me suddenly jumped out and talked quietly.

“Captain, thank you for your hard work… I was worried that you might get hurt…”

-Tup

I covered her mouth.

“Stop it because it’s cheesy.”

For some reason, it was difficult to accept such a warm and emotional atmosphere.

‘Can I trust them?’

Guys who look pure and full of affection. These guys were the only normal-looking people in the police force full of idiots.

After a while, I shook my head and made up my mind.

‘We’ll have to stay together from now on, so let’s stay together as colleagues, but let’s not completely give our hearts to each other.’

With that promise, I questioned them.

“In the process of being promoted to 31st level marshal, we were able to request a space for us to use. What do you want?”

When I asked a question, the security guards looked at me with puzzled expressions. Then, Lim Yuna took the lead and asked me back.

“That’s the captain’s authority. Are you saying that we’ll do whatever we want?”

The level of the security guard is promoted from level 32 to level 31, and you can use one space other than the office. For example, a billiards room, a comic book room, a training room, etc., Will be able to select and use one of the various spaces they want. Of course, since this is an inherent right of the captain to choose, it was customary for most security guards to follow the captain’s desired space without presenting an opinion.

‘I know, but it’s useless anyway.’

There is nothing I really want to do or have. I just wish I could earn enough money to live on, and I don’t need a training room, a comic book store, or anything else. In the first place, apart from killing monsters, I never played properly, never took a break, or had any hobbies, so to be precise, it would be more accurate to say that I don’t know what kind of space I want to have. That’s why I delegated authority to the security guards. Let’s figure it out

“Hate it? If you don’t like it, I’ll just decide what I want.”

Then, Im Yuna spoke urgently.

“I wish I had a sleeping room.”

Then Kim Tae-gun, who was next to him, agreed.

“That’s right. It was very uncomfortable because we only had an office space to sleep.”

Ahn Ye-jin also nodded her head.

“Since I always sit at my desk and sleep, I think it’s hard… I think it’s hard…”

I listened to their opinions and responded.

“Yes, I understand.”

Then, the security guards’ faces brightened.

From noble mtl dot com.

Ahn Ye-jin asked a question.

“I… Are you really doing what we said? Really?….”

“If you don’t like it, don’t.”

“Poetry… I don’t hate it! So good!”

At Ahn Ye-jin’s urgent words, Kim Tae-gun laughed heartily.

Kim Tae-gun soon asked me a question.

“Captain. If I upgrade, don’t I get a one-day pass? How about we all go out and enjoy the festival?”

“A festival?”

When I asked a question, Kim Tae-gun nodded.

“Yes, there is a festival going on in a city not far from here. I really wanted to go there, but if you give me permission, I thought it would be nice to go there to get to know each other.”

“Hmm…”

‘Well, there’s nothing to do anyway.’

I nodded.

“Wow!”

The security guards shouted with joy.

‘Is this something you’ll love so much?’

Suddenly, I felt pitiful. I like that the captain didn’t hit me when he first came, I like that he reflected my opinion, I like that he allowed me to go to the festival with him. No matter how you look at it, it wasn’t normal. Isn’t it? You’re glad you didn’t fit the boss. Where are these contradictory words?

I thought it was a bit unfortunate that the daily life that others enjoy casually seems to be approaching like a special privilege that is difficult for them to enjoy.

‘Let’s not worry about it.’

I shook my head and thought.

***

The next day. Everyone gathered and went out. By the way, we have been promoted to the 31st level police force. Eun-tae Ham is receiving treatment, but it is not known if he will fully recover. That’s why the current 32nd-level peace officer position remains vacant. Actually, he didn’t really care. Regardless of whether he returns anyway, or if someone else comes in because he couldn’t, it’s because the 32nd-level police force is under us now.

“Captain, come quickly!”

Kim Tae-gun packed his things and called me.

“Why do you pack so much stuff? I’m just watching our festival.”

Kim Tae-gun handed me a bottle of water while rummaging through his bag.

“Captain, you must be hot. Have a glass of cold water.”

“Oh, and the bag is something to drink and eat. And when I tried to pack things to wear and play with, this wasn’t enough!”

I shook my head and talked to Kim Tae-gun.

“Isn’t it corny, like someone new to a place like this?”

Then Kim Tae-geon replied brightly.

“That’s right, Captain!”

“Huh?…”

When I put on a puzzled expression, Kim Tae-gun smiled and explained.

“My family life is a bit complicated. My parents were sick, so I worked all the time when I was young, and since I joined the security guard, there was no captain who would go out with me like this… It’s the first time I’ve ever played with someone like this.”

“That… Is it? Kuh…Keuhmm… Yes, since we’re out, let’s all play together.”

As I was walking in the lead, Ahn Ye-jin disappeared before I knew it.

“By the way, where did Ahn Ye-jin go?”

“Huh? I was here just a moment ago.”

I looked around and saw Ahn Ye-jin, who was far behind me.

“Ahn Ye-jin, what are you doing?”

When I called her, she shyly turned away.

“Ki… I bought one because something like this was sold on the street…”

I saw Ahn Ye-jin wearing her cat headband and her tail on her hip.

Since the cheeks are blushing, it looks like a cat.

She looked at me shyly and asked a question.

“Now…Does it suit you?”
