◈ Genius Shin-Gung who became a one-man army (65)

Lian looked at the selected people.

Everyone trained hard for a short period of time, even if it was only for a short period of time.

However, only five people passed the final test.

“I’m ashamed. I should have worked a little harder.”

Isaac said to Lian as he looked at the five who had made it to the final round.

Still, as the deputy commander, I should have paid a little more attention to such an important operation.

Lian shook her head.

“No, it was a voluntary training session, so do you have anything to be sorry about? And…….”

Lian looked at the five people standing in front of her.

Out of a hundred people, five passed the final test.

Five people somewhere.

Honestly, I thought it would be a success if just one or two people showed up.

‘This is a huge improvement.’

Lian looked at the five people in front of him with genuine admiration.

If we were to quantify their efforts over the years, how big would it be?

But the appreciation soon stopped.

Lian told them.

“Do you know why I called you?”

“I know!”

“yes!”

Lian nodded at their answers.

“Then let’s get straight to the point. I won’t force you. If you do it wrong, you could lose your life. Even though it’s that dangerous… Will you do it?”

There was a moment of silence following Lian’s question.

We all know this, but when it comes time to make a decision, we hesitate a little.

As Lian said, it is something that requires risking one’s life.

At that moment, a brown-haired man who looked to be in his thirties spoke.

“Sir, do you remember what you told us when we first started this training?”

“What was the first thing you said?”

“yes.”

He nodded and continued.

“When this battle is over and the Arrowhead unit grows bigger, the results of this training could lead to a change in rank.”

“I remember.”

How could I forget?

It wasn’t just something I did to motivate them.

It was such an important task, and I was confident that anyone who could put in the effort to do it could become anything.

He paused for a moment at Lian’s answer, then continued speaking slowly.

“I have a father who is not in good health. Because of that, my mother works day and night.”

It was also because of that family environment that he enlisted in the military.

If I were to disappear, I would have one less mouth to feed and my life would improve.

Besides, if you join the military, you won’t have to worry about at least eating and sleeping.

Every time I get paid, I send home most of it.

But even so, mother could not rest.

Even if you say a soldier’s salary, it’s worse than a rat’s tail.

“I think you said that in the beginning because you wanted to make this moment a success. To make this operation a success.”

“You are right. This is an important operation that must be successful in order to destroy those evil people.”

“If I succeed in this operation and climb up that canyon wall… and come back alive, will my position in the expanded Arrowhead force change?”

He has a straightforward personality.

There is also a reason why it must succeed.

It means that we are in a desperate situation where we absolutely must move upward.

Swish.

Lian looked at his fingers. No, he looked at their fingers.

It had been less than a year, but already their fingertips had developed huge calluses.

How many wounds have been created, burst, and healed over and over again?

With what kind of mindset did he approach that training?

‘Most people would probably fail even with regular training.’

And that training is not compulsory.

Lian looked at him again.

I plan to give him the answer he wants.

“I plan to create a unit within the Arrowhead unit that can perform a variety of special missions.”

There are so many situations that arise on the battlefield, and so many things are needed to win.

Just as Lian is good at archery, the unit needs people with various abilities, such as those who are good at close combat, those who are good at defense, those who are quick on their feet, those who have good eyes, etc.

“There may be times in the future when this type of operation is necessary. There may even be times when we have to climb higher walls.”

They looked at Lian, who was speaking softly, with expressions of firm determination.

Looking at them, Lian asked.

“What happens if this operation is successful and you survive?”

“yes.”

“yes!”

“Each of you will become the leader of that special force. And as officers leading the Arrowhead Unit together, you will be able to reach much higher heights than you are now.”

As soon as Lian finished speaking, the brown-haired man spoke.

“I will do it.”

And then,

“I will do it too.”

“I have a family to take responsibility for. I will survive!”

“me too!”

Lian nodded to everyone’s answers.

Then Lian asked them.

“What is your name?”

“This is Benat.”

The brown-haired man’s name was Benat. And next to him,

“It’s Jamelon.”

“It’s Gragal!”

“Gialok!”

“It’s Palm!”

At their answer, Lian looked at Isaac.

“Isaac, gather all the men.”

Now we go to put an end to this war.

* * *

Puuuuuuuuuuuu-!

““Waaa …

The majestic sound of the horn pierced the darkness and resounded high into the sky.

The Bieltonian troops gathered together, looking out over the Forchen Valley, raised a wild shout.

A force of nearly a thousand men began to form up in front of the valley.

The bandits who had been watching the net in the Porhen Valley began to move busily and block the entrance to the valley.

“The guys are moving.”

“The road is probably already blocked.”

“Still, there will be fewer troops lying in wait against the wall than before.”

“But this is their main battlefield, so we have to be careful.”

Varus glanced to the left as he talked to Homer.

Homer asked Varus.

“Will it really work? Climbing that wall… Honestly, I still think it’s ridiculous.”

Although he followed the orders from his superiors, Homer, who had been here for a long time, found it difficult to understand.

I myself have thought about that before.

If I could get over that canyon wall and hit their rear, I think I could end this fight.

The reason why this has not been done until now is simple.

Because I decided that I couldn’t overcome that wall.

Varus simply spoke in a calm voice.

“I have to trust Lian.”

If there is no signal from Lian, all forces will return to Bieltona.

If that’s the case, there’s no telling when this fight will end.

When a strange sense of tension and anticipation seems to weigh heavily on your chest,

“If it’s Lian, she can do it.”

Raymond, the commander of the Eagle Company next door, said.

Homer then turned his gaze to him.

“You seem to have considerable faith in Lieutenant Lian.”

“It can’t be helped. He always manages to do things that are thought impossible.”

Finding the ambush of the hordes in Pelon Canyon was… well… a stroke of luck.

But was the subsequent crossing of the Isis River really a stroke of luck?

His knowledge of the terrain and his bold execution ability. And most frightening of all is the preparedness that supports that execution ability.

“He’s not an idiot who gets hung up on the impossible.”

If Lian can do it, then it can be done.

At those words, Homel simply kept his mouth shut and remained silent.

Something that is thought to be impossible unless a miracle occurs… … .

‘Are you saying that you’re creating a miracle…?’

The officers, including Homel, looked in the direction where the Arrowhead unit had gone.

* * *

It was a thickly foggy night.

Being free from enemy sight may be an advantage, but

“……Wouldn’t it be dangerous?”

“Phew…….”

Lian, who was looking at the wall, let out a small breath.

Because of the fog, climbing the wall became even more difficult.

But now I can’t back out.

No, even if I backed down, it didn’t seem like these guys would give up.

Lian turned around and looked at the five men.

“Are you ready?”

“”yes!””

They answered with determined expressions.

Before they knew it, there was a bag next to them that was as big as their body.

It was a bag containing large nails, a hammer, and a thick rope more than a hundred meters long.

A bag that is much heavier than a full set of gear.

They have to climb the canyon walls carrying bags that weigh more than half of their body weight.

It was an absurd thing that most people would never even attempt, but they silently carried their bags and tied them tightly around their bodies.

“I will go.”

The first one to step forward was Benat.

Benat took his first steps carefully and grabbed a stone from the wall.

Swish.

As he began to climb the wall, the other four followed him one by one.

And as they disappeared into the fog and out of sight, Isaac, who had been watching, said:

“Is it okay…?”

“Yeah, it’ll be okay.”

Lian answered without hesitation. Isaac asked Lian with a slightly surprised expression.

“Are you sure?”

“of course.”

Of course, it is clear that it is not an easy task.

Moreover, it cannot be denied that the conditions are worse than expected.

It’s something that requires luck to be on your side. But Lian could definitely feel it in the guys’ eyes.

I’m sure you’ll do it.

“Let’s believe and wait.”

It’s crazy to climb a wall that’s over a hundred meters high without any safety equipment, and carrying a bag that weighs half your body weight.

Something you can never do when you are sober.

Nevertheless, Lian sent them.

It’s more because I trust in the past efforts they’ve made, rather than the urgency to make this operation a success.

So Lian just waited for them in silence.

* * *

“Whew…… Whoosh…… Whoosh……!”

The thick fog made it difficult to see the protrusions on the wall.

But Benat reached out and felt along the wall as slowly and carefully as he could.

When I first climbed about ten meters, I felt my body becoming quite heavy for some reason.

Of course, it can’t be otherwise.

Because I’m carrying this ridiculously heavy bag.

But at some point, as I focused on climbing the wall, it felt like the weight was disappearing.

Is it just a feeling that it’s been like this from the beginning?

‘still…….’

What was even funnier was the current situation.

When we were training to climb a wall with the battalion commander, we had to pick up rocks that were only about the size of a finger joint.

At first, it was impossible to even just hang on, but as I continued to train, at some point it became possible to climb up little by little.

But the actual situation was completely different.

Snap!

Benat, who was holding onto the canyon wall that could fit in one hand, confirmed it with strength.

Because the grooves in the rock were so firmly embedded that they felt like handles.

Rather, it felt like the training I had done in absurd situations was paying off in real life.

Benat recalled memories of his training in Bieltona over the past years.

Even after completing basic training for the Arrowhead Unit, which was called hell, I continued climbing trees until dawn without resting.

My fingers split open as if they had been cut with a knife, and pus came out dozens of times.

When I bled, I had to wrap a bandage, and sometimes it was so painful and difficult that I cried out in tears.

Although it was a voluntary training, there was only one reason why Benat did not give up.

Because the faces of the two great people who worked hard to raise me always came to mind.

And now,

Hot.

“You can do it.”

Benat was climbing the wall for a new leap.
