The Immortal Genius Spearman (122)
“What about the land you purchased this time?”

“It’s 300,000 pyeong. At 3 silver per pyeong, a total of 9 platinum was spent.”

Recently, Hamel Group has started to make quite aggressive land purchases based on the money it has earned so far.

The reason was simple.

‘The Empire’s movements are seriously aggressive. It is clear that… … they will wage war against the Continent.’

If a war breaks out, the first thing to move is the price of grain.

Of course, it is not felt yet, but perhaps in about 5 or 6 months, even the common people of the kingdom will feel it themselves.

“We must hurry and finish hiring the farmers, because soon it will be time to sow wheat.”

“All right.”

Revant, one of the people assisting DL.

I’ve been assigned to work on farm-related projects, and as a result, I’ve been living a very busy life, with each day being intense.

At Revant’s answer, DL stood up from his seat.

“Everyone needs to move quickly. This incident may be the catalyst for a major change in the size of our organization.”

“… … It’s growing so fast that I’m honestly scared. The bigger you get, the more important it is to have structure and systems.”

Of course, DL had created that system perfectly.

Thanks to that, isn’t the owner of the top position, Wirk, also busy running around, leaving all that to DL?

But it’s still a young DL.

He was too young, both physically and mentally, to take on such a big task.

‘If you keep doing this, you’ll collapse… … .’

“it’s okay.”

“… … ?”

Revant looked at her, startled by Diel’s sudden words.

Are you learning how to read minds?

DL said with a faint smile.

“Honestly, every day these days is filled with so much to be thankful for. Who would have guessed that our top would grow this fast?”

It is a top that is famous for its small size even in the capital.

I couldn’t expand the scale because I was volunteering to help other people on that topic.

but…….

“… … I still haven’t forgotten the first time I met Damian.”

The back view of him sitting with his father.

I’m talking about Damien’s surprised expression as he looks back at himself.

‘But why were you surprised then?’

Looking back, I had some doubts.

“Anyway, it’s thanks to him that we’ve been able to grow so much. We should be of help to him on his way.”

“……yes.”

As Revant nodded, DL clapped his hands and said.

“Then let’s move quickly.”

“yes!”

There are so many things to do these days.

dump.

Diana made a pitiful expression as she watched the guys collapse as soon as they entered the barracks.

These were the assault troops created with Kyle as their leader.

The assault team members were separated and began to undergo different training, which was quite difficult.

Swish.

Diana looked at the fallen assault team members without saying a word and then walked towards Damien.

and.

“Damian.”

“I know.”

“… … .”

Damien already knows what he’s going to say.

As Diana looked at him, Damian looked at Diana and said.

“But I’m sure the instructor has something in mind. And I’m sure it’s something we absolutely need to do.”

“Have you ever seen the training of assault troops?”

“I saw it.”

The training that the assault team members received was not simply tactical training or physical training.

It took a combination of agility and the power to create an absurd breakthrough, as well as the ability to break down even the most stubborn rocks.

“Pay more attention to their equipment. If there’s anything missing, report it to me right away. I’ll go to the higher-ups myself and exchange it for the best.”

“… … I’m worried that if this continues, someone will get seriously hurt.”

“You might get hurt. Is our training easy?”

Damien tapped Diana’s arm.

I know what he’s worried about though.

“Diana.”

“……yes.”

“Maybe there isn’t enough time.”

“……yes?”

Diana tilted her head at Damien’s words. What does he mean by that all of a sudden?

But Damien stood up and walked down the middle of the long barracks, speaking to his men.

“I know you all are tired and worn out, but pay attention for a moment.”

“… … ?”

Although his voice was soft, it was imbued with magical power, so all the unit members could clearly hear Damian’s words.

The unit members who had been lying down as if they had collapsed also sat down and looked at Damien.

Damien said to him.

“I know that the training has been getting a little tougher recently. And the new recruits are probably having a harder time just holding on than the ones that were there before.”

I understood it well.

That’s also why I try to leave it alone and not touch it if possible, even if it just spreads out after training.

but…….

“If you had ears, you would have heard what moves the Empire has made recently.”

“… … .”

Nod.

Many of the unit members nodded at Damien’s words.

Because they all knew that the atmosphere was not good.

“We will probably be deployed to the battlefield soon. And the battlefield we will be deployed to… … could be more intense and dangerous than any battlefield you have ever been to.”

The fact that the empire began to advance using the sea route meant that an era of full-scale war had begun.

Damien walked slowly, thinking about the current situation.

The men in the unit could feel the anxiety in Damien’s eyes and the seriousness of the situation as he passed by.

Gulp.

The feeling that the emotion is completely conveyed even though no words were said.

The unit swallowed their saliva and waited for Damien to speak.

“When I die on that battlefield, the thing I regret the most is this very moment.”

If only I had tried a little harder back then.

If only I had gritted my teeth and trained a little harder… … .

“I wonder if I could have survived.”

Damien said as he looked at his men.

“The era of great turmoil is about to unfold. Signals are already appearing all over the continent. And we will be heading to the front lines of the battlefield that will unfold during that era of turmoil.”

That means the risk increases.

“So, endure this hardship now, persevere, and overcome it. Then, you too will surely be greatly rewarded.”

“Yes, I understand.”

“Don’t worry! This kind of training is nothing!”

The half-dead guys shouted excitedly. Damien smirked and spoke.

“Everyone, keep this in mind, we are the strongest unit in the Baroque Kingdom, the Kaion Unit.”

And Damien shouted loudly.

“I ask! Who are we!”

“This is the Kaion Unit!”

A loud shout as if the barracks were about to be demolished.

The fatigue that had been weighing on their faces until just a moment ago had completely disappeared.

Their eyes sparkled with passion as if they could begin training at any moment.

Then Damien just smiled faintly and said.

“Of course, rest is also absolutely necessary. Rest for now. I will soon provide you with the right equipment.”

“Uh, is there anything you are preparing?”

“What kind of equipment are you talking about?”

The soldiers asked with their eyes sparkling with curiosity.

Damian said.

“I need to talk to the commander. I’m working hard, so I need to demand compensation for that.”

“As expected, you are the deputy commander.”

“A person with no flaws, hehehe.”

Because of this meticulousness of Damien, the unit members were able to follow him better.

But then.

“Captain!”

“Why is that?”

“The commander… has arrived.”

“……to?”

Damien couldn’t hide his bewildered expression at the administrative soldier’s report.

“Well, that saved me the trouble of having to go.”

Damien quickly checked his clothes and began to walk quickly.

* * *

“Phew.”

Kiaren got out of the carriage and let out a deep breath as if he was finally able to breathe again.

Edman, who was next to her, smiled brightly at that sight.

“You seem to like this place better than the Legion.”

“I just feel at ease when I come here.”

Aren’t these guys the ones who get things done the most reliably in these dizzying times?

Edmund nodded as if he understood Kiaren’s feelings.

“Me too.”

Although he was not their superior, he was able to understand their feelings to some extent because he was under Kiaren.

A variable that occurs when doing something.

An operational failure due to that variable is truly embarrassing for a commander.

However, the Kaion unit has overcome all the ridiculous variables and succeeded in an impossible operation to get to this point.

In fact, the Kion unit helped Kiaren breathe a sigh of relief several times.

That’s why Kiaren also met with Prime Minister Matheus this time and had his own negotiations.

Because it was the best effort he could give.

“Then, should I take a look at the faces of the guys who were added?”

I wonder if any useful guys have come in.

Kiaren walked towards the barracks with a faint smile.

And when she reached near the barracks.

“Glory to the kingdom!”

Damian, who was already lining up outside the barracks, saluted loudly when he saw Kiaren.

At that, Kiaren smiled faintly and lightly placed his right fist on his left chest.

“Glory to the kingdom. How have you been?”

“I am having a busy day thanks to the consideration of the commander.”

“Kuuuuuu, what do you mean by keeping yourself busy because of my consideration? Is that an insult or a compliment?”

“Of course I am grateful. Thanks to you, Commander, the size of the Kaion unit has grown and it has become even stronger.”

Damien stepped aside slightly and pointed inward.

“I will take you to the reception room.”

“Okay, let’s go in and talk.”

Kiaren followed Damien to the reception room.

And as I went inside, I saw Leonhark running towards me in a hurry.

“Wow, glory to the kingdom!”

Leonhark saluted hastily and said with a surprised expression.

“If you had contacted me in advance, I would have prepared.”

“Don’t be surprised. I just came because I wanted to.”

Kiaren simply shook his head and said.

Didn’t you go to the palace and come back without any notice?

It didn’t matter if you weren’t ready to meet her.

“Phew.”

Kiaren sat down on the chair in the reception room and took a deep breath.

Her expression was unusually tired.

Then Damien came with the new car he received from Diehl.

“They say this tea is good for recovering from fatigue. It also smells good, so would you like to try it?”

“Hmm… … I was thinking of having a drink, but tea isn’t bad either.”

Kiaren took the tea Damian handed him and smelled it.

A refreshing scent like a tangerine came in first, and as I moved towards the back, a subtle floral scent seemed to spread.

“Good.”

Kiaren took a sip of tea and put the cup down, looking at Damian and Leonhark.

Leonhark was looking at Kiaren with worried eyes.

At that, Kiaren snickered and said.

“Don’t worry, it’s not hard yet. More importantly, how is the unit’s condition these days?”

“We are undergoing intensive training. Due to the recent situation, we are working on a tight schedule.”

Kiaren’s expression hardened at Damien’s blunt answer.

This means that the situation is so serious that each unit can already feel it.

Kiaren said.

“Are you able to deploy straight into battle?”

“It’s not possible at the moment. They say they’ve increased the number to 300 and created a special unit, but the numbers aren’t right yet. If they’re going to move, it’s better to just move the original 100 people, that’s my current opinion.”

“Umm… … .”

Kiaren let out a small breath.

Damien is someone who knows how to look at the realistic part coolly.

Then Kiaren looks at Leonhark.

“I think so too.”

“I see.”

If that’s the case, then it’s no different from saying that the Kaion unit can’t move yet. However.

“We need to finish the maintenance within a month at the latest. After that, there’s no telling when we’ll be able to deploy.”

“I will prepare.”

“All right.”

Still, a month is a lot of time.

As the two nodded in response, Kiaren smiled faintly.

but…….

“But you know.”

Damian looked at her with a complicated expression as she continued to speak.
