Kill the Dragon

00023 # 4 3rd Squad

After Lee's return to the squad dormitory, Kato looks fierce.

“Ihan, are you hitting my back like this? ”

“It's not the back of the head. ”

“You can leave, but Kuro won't let you. ”

Although Kuro is a mistake, the fact that he is a good biker does not change. Kuro is an irreplaceable force in the seventh squad.

‘It started with the assumption that the same as Kuro and José must be recruited. I won't back down.’

Lee looked at Kato. The eyes of two boys met. A sharp foe falters.

“Kato, you can't use Kuro. Kuro won't be able to use all his powers under you. I assure you.”

“Don't pretend to know. Not everyone is a squad leader just because they've been determined to be a squad leader. After a mistake, Kuro will be a great seventh squad member. ”

“Of course you can. But if there was a war going on right now, would you ask your enemies to wait until Kuro is fully grown? I'm confident I can draw Kuro's power out right now. The enemy won't wait for us to be complete. If obeying orders is the military's mission, isn't it the commander's mission to win with imperfect and limited force? Losing and blaming someone doesn't change the outcome. ”

Cough!

Kato grabs Lee by the neck. Lee ran into a wall. Kato is furious.

“Son of a bitch. ”

Kato and Ihan were always awkward and unpleasant. Lee was against Kato's authority.

‘Fraid you were feeling it. I am a better commander than you. It's true even if you don't want to admit it. ’

Lee was convinced. There are boys who excel at melee combat. If we fight Dmitri in front of us, seven out of ten won't win. There are many children with better psychic abilities than this. There is only one thing better than such superhuman beings.

‘There is only one way I can survive the arc. If I don't excel, I can make the best of me my colleagues. You have to show me that you win. ’

Lee's eyes became cold.

“Kato Sooki, I'll take Kuro. You're too much of a squad. ”

“Kuro stays in the seventh squad. I'm not sending you.”

“That's Kuro's choice. ”

“If you say yes, I'll kill Kuro myself." ”

Kato said extremely. Lee smiled in disgust. He knows what it means to kill him. This is not what real killing looks like. There is a cold frenzy to real killing. Lee Han has lived in such a cold frenzy.

“All you had to do was talk. If I drown, will I be left speechless? ”

Kato's face turned red and was about to burst. His fist rises high.

“Shut up!"

Unh-unh!

Lee got punched in the face. He falls to the ground. Lee stood up spitting blood on the floor.

“I'll take care of this. Kato. I don't want to be called around before the squad starts. ”

Kato sighs and looks at Lee. Lee stood at Kuro's visit. Kuro was already listening. I know the situation outside.

‘Why did Lee Han create the squad... What should I do? ’

Kuro sweats a lot. I bit my nails. The pupils tremble restlessly.

‘If I say I'm going to fall in the seventh squad, Commander Kato will kill me. And the 13th squad will be public. But she's my friend. ’

Lee did not open a visit to Kuro. He said briefly in front of the call.

“Kuro, you remember what happened to the uninhabited? You and I defeated three times as many cars. The instructors think you need me, Kuro. You think I'm holding you back. But so am I. Kuro, I need your strength. You have powers that I don't have. You and I can give each other what we need, but Kato can't give you anything. ”

Kato grabs Yihan and throws him into the hall.

“Piss off, ehan. ”

The other seven squads came out. They looked at him with contempt. I felt betrayal on my face. The squad members who saw this well were furious deeper.

‘Just as the instructors intended. They're starting to hate me. The 13th generation must have been a group of traitors from birth. ’

Lee smiled bitterly. Everyone didn't know this was the instructor's intention. Instructors could have allowed Lee to build a squad okay. Instructors can step up in person, assign people, and squad around the Promoters.

‘It's simple to leave everything to me and give other squad captains such unpleasant conditions. If you want to try, try. If you survive this, you have the right to form a squad. ’

Lee is locked in his room, avoiding a cold gun. There were no more people than expected.

‘It's not worth it. Squad Leaders are on the lookout for the creation of Squad 13. He hates it more when his squad gets out. ’

Lee looked at the list of sophomore year and selected a potential recruit. After a few sweeps, everyone who had a chance was finished with the recommendation.

Knock, knock.

Someone knocked on Lee's visit. Lee opened the door and checked. There was a brunette boy standing there. Jose and his promotion was Knut Meier. I know Lee and his face.

“Knut?”

“You said you were recruiting 13th squad. Is it still valid?”

Knut enters the room. He scratches his head and sits on a chair.

“Valid. But you don't seem very interested. What's the wind? ”

“Speaking of which, 13 squads would be the most fun. They talk about you like you're the opposite. ”

“That's it? Interested?"

“I was in class B like you. You're good. You've proven that a lot in class B, right? I think you're better off than any other unproven squadron commander. Is that enough?"

Lee asked Knut to shake his hand.

“Welcome, Knute Meier. ”

“If you don't like it, we'll send you a transfer request at any time. Squad Leader.”

It was fortunate for Ihan. Knut was the one who wanted to recruit. Lee felt a gentle breeze.

The next morning, the opening ceremony of the 13th squad was held at the Royal Marine Corps. It was a small ceremony with a few instructors. A minimum of four people in the 13th squad were fully licensed.

“Squad 13. Squad Leader Lee Han. Squad members Jose Batista, Knut Meier... And Kuro? What happened to your face? ”

The instructor told me that Kuro, who was standing last, was a mess on his face. I couldn't see my eyes properly because my eyes were swollen.

“I fell down the stairs. ”

It's the same as arc rolling down a staircase - I won't say it. The instructors did not intervene unless they told them.

“Well, be careful. ”

The instructor nods. Kuro smiles faintly. He declared to Kato that he would leave the 7th squad. Kato beats Kuro to a pulp.

‘You really didn't kill him. ’

Kuro shrugs and smiles. After being beaten, I felt relieved. Even the guilt about the seventh squad disappeared.

“The 13th squad dormitory uses D ward. I'll send you a detailed itinerary at 20: 00. Squad Leader Lee Hhan will submit the Squad Training Plan by 16: 00. ”

“I understand.”

Lee Han and his squad bowed down and entered the dormitory. They moved their personal belongings to their rooms. After the founding ceremony, the instructors shrugged their shoulders and organized the data. Adding a new squad has a lot of computational changes. We have a lot of work to do.

“Nearly filled in four. ”

The instructors told me.

“Did you see Kuro's face? He was pretty rough in the 7th. ”

“Well, it's hard to send Kuro to the seventh squad. ”

“But if Kuro doesn't adapt in the seventh generation without this limit, he's going to join the 13th. ”

The instructors looked at the 13th squad.

“Can you really show me what you're capable of? Yihan.”

The creation of the 13th squad was not well evaluated by the other squads. Especially with the seventh squad that took the squad members directly. Most of the squads did not evaluate the 13th squad as high.

‘There are four of us. And that's a mix of two radicals. ’

Four mixed promoters. The limits of the 13th squad were obvious. It seemed difficult to improve my performance. There were no veterans to lead the squad.

“Hey, since sophomore year, isn't this a private room? That's fantastic.”

José jumped out of bed and said.

“Then the bed collapses. ”

Lee said, 13 squads gathered together in Jose's room. Jose's luggage is the least of it, so it's organized quickly. The four boys are seated comfortably.

“Four people. Is that enough? I'm disappointed. ”

Knut grunts. Lee shakes his head, grinning.

“We'll meet again. If we win, we have to win with four. Luckily, in the race, we have to keep up with the smaller squad. It's disadvantageous in terms of diversity, not difference in power. Maybe we're not so bad after all. Especially Kuro, a second-grade biker. ”

Kuro smiles shyly. Lee continued to talk.

“Jose and Knut are fundamentally trained by Kuro for a while. Kuro is ahead of you in his second grade training curriculum. There's probably a three-week grace period. After that, we'll have to go to the game. ”

“What if we don't achieve satisfactory light synthesis? ”

Jose asked.

“We are the laughingstock, or even the dismantling of 13 squads. If it's disbanded and scattered to the rest of us, we all know what we're going to get, right? ”

Everyone nods. I don't get treated well.

“I came prepared for that. ”

“So am I. ”

Kuro insists. He came out of the 7th squad and firmly made up his mind.

Lee met the eyes of the squad members one by one.

“I'm sorry about Jose and Knut, but you're still weak compared to the other sophomores. Focus on being as strong as the others in three weeks. We don't have individual abilities to overpower others. Me and Kuro have obvious weaknesses. We need a thorough squadron battle to win. Win not with individual competencies, but with squad competencies We will share our roles to win. ”

His voice did not waver. His determination to triumph has passed. Lee felt the weight on his shoulders, bearing the future of the three boys. He's not shaken by this kind of pressure. Rather, it is a person who exerts more abilities under pressure. Lee was sweating cold, but his smile was filled with confidence.
