# 11 A sign

Lee Han was watching a video in his room of a sophomore race, a scene where the 13th and 3rd squads were side by side, with Simon in the third squad. Rumor has it that he is going up to third grade soon. We are also reviewing the interior positively. Though it was judged that there was a problem with cooperation in nature, the consecutive practices and experiences diminished a lot.

“You know Simon can't fight alone. ”

Jihan mutters. Simon looks much different from the old days. He actively cooperates with the third squad and moves on with the mission. The third squad has the highest odds of sophomore year, more than seven. Although it does not reach the odds of eight, seven is also high.

“The power difference is too big. ”

Lee said, watching the video. José and Knut struggle, but we can't stop Simon. Simon has already crossed the second grade level.

‘Is Kuro still in the hospital? ’

There is no sign of Kuro in the 13th. The 13th squad struggles, but is ultimately defeated by the 3rd squad. Lee carefully examined the battlefield.

“We shouldn't have confronted Simon. If you were a coward, you would have chosen to avoid a frontal battle. Jose.”

Lee said to himself, reviewing the competition. Simon is an overwhelming opponent. Then you don't have to fight them head-on. It's a way to increase your odds. A head-to-head match with an opponent stronger than you means you want to lose.

Tiering.

Lee looked at the ringing terminal.

- Call.

Location captured on the map. Lee thought that something was going to be paged lately.

‘There's nothing in particular. ’

Lee walked along the map. It was a building used by officers. The map was expanded and expressed to the inside of the building. I often saw faces that I had never seen before.

‘These are the Arc's high lords, I think. ’

The room where Lee Han arrived was the reception room. Luxurious carpets are lined. There was still steaming tea on the table. Soon the man walked into the room. Lee Hwan saw the hierarchy and bowed reflectively.

“You're Ihan. You were 13th grade captain, and now you're a third-grader. I've heard that name many times. My name is Alexander Lekor. I'm Arc's Chief of Staff. ”

Yihan flinches. The Chief of Staff is directly under the Commander. One of the Arc's most trusted men.

Alexander's beard is ferocious as a beast. She was wearing sophisticated glasses, suppressing her wildness. The thick fingers holding the pen show traces of holding a weapon. Lee observed Alexander rolling his eyes.

“Nice to meet you. This is Lee Han.”

Alexander reaches out and asks for a handshake. Alexander's ferocity flows wildly, unlike his position as Chief of Staff.

“Do you like tea? ”

Alexander handed me the tea.

“This is my first drink. ”

Lee took a sip and frowned slightly.

‘Instructor Wei and the Chief of Staff... I like it very much. ’

It was worth more than a cup of oolong tea, but my mouth was still shut. Lee put it down without a few sips. But the cookies we came out with were delicious.

“Do you know why I paged you? ”

“I don't know.”

“I'm standing at a crossroads right now. ”

Alexander stared at Lee Han and said, Lee waited for him to keep saying.

“... Kuro, you're familiar with this. He's lost his will to fight. He reminds me of the faces of the soldiers who died because of what he did. He can't even sleep. ”

“I knew it…. ”

I blurred the end of my words. It was hard for Kuro to endure.

“Convince me. Class S bikers are an important power source. I can't waste a child with endless possibilities like this. If you look at the process so far, only you can do it. ”

“I'll think about it for a moment. ”

Lee Han bowed his head. The hot tea dried up. What is the path for Kuro?

Lee finally nodded. He follows the other executive's lead. Arrived in a double-mirror room. The Chief of Staff and executives are watching from outside.

Lee opened the door and became monogamous with Kuro. Kuro was wearing a white hospital uniform.

“Hello, Kuro. ”

"Kuro looked at her with dark eyes," Lee said.

“It's been a long time. How are you? ”

Kuro forcefully said cheerfully. Kuro was shy but smiling well. Lee quickly realized that Kuro's smile was unnatural.

“It's been a month. I'm fine, but I don't think you are. ”

I felt sorry for Kuro's exhausted face.

“I'm not strong like you. It reminds me of them at night. You said they died because of me, whispering in my ear. ”

“It wasn't on purpose. I didn't want to kill him. It's just that the missile's trajectory accidentally shifted in your direction. ”

“You sound like you've seen it. Maybe it is. But maybe he wanted to kill them unconsciously. I'm sure you will. At the end of the day, I had a choice. They were swept away by my malice. ”

Lee opened his eyes. Kuro grins his fingers nervously.

“So? That's a bad thing? These are the people who tried to kill you. You fought to protect your friends. No one's blaming it. ”

“I know. That's what they all say. I'm sorry, I can't do this anymore. This is as far as you go.”

Kuro's despair is beyond his understanding. The walls of my mind seemed to be closed. Lee did not understand the pure kindness like Kuro. In this life, pity towards the enemy was luxurious.

“Kuro, I saw my colleague die on the last op. He was kind enough to talk to me. I would shoot and kill an enemy in front of me, even if he were human. The people standing in front of me are more important to me than the people who don't even know their names! ”

Lee Hwan's speech increased.

“But…. ”

“But what are you doing? I will protect you by killing them all if you are in danger among them. On the contrary, you can't do that, right? Then you don't have to stand next to me. If you can't fight, give up now. With that ability, there are times when you can use it, even if it's not a battle. ”

Lee scolded Kuro as if he was angry. Lee muttered to himself several times.

‘I'd rather not. Kuro.’

Lee gave up on persuading Kuro in the first few words. Rather, I wanted to quit. He realized Harold was dying. The death of a colleague is terrible. The death of a friend is beyond despair. Lee hated the despair of losing his family and friends.

‘It's okay to give up now. ’

Kuro has only survived so far with the idea of going after Ihan. Unlike other children, there is no spontaneous motivation. If you take it away from me, Kuro will give up.

Bang, bang!

I heard a knock on the door. The executives, who noticed that something was wrong with Lee Han's speech, acted.

Kieing!

Lee used a psychic to block the door with a table and chair. Everyone who watched Lee's sudden behavior was surprised.

“Open the door! Yihan!”

The executive shouted from the outside. Lee said roughly, shining his eyes.

“Shut up! We're talking! ”

Frosty shouts made the executives' livers chill.

“Hah...? ”

Kuro opened his eyes wide because he was surprised.

“I was wrong. You're no match for a fight, either. At this rate, even if the war is over and we survive, we will live in pain for the rest of our lives. ”

Kuro is different from the other boys. That sensitivity is not combat worthy. Lee realized through repeated practices. This is a cruel path for Kuro to endure.

“You will be punished for what you have done. ”

“What can I do? I'll end with a warning. I'm a psychic soldier with real combat capabilities. I'm not gonna let the punishment get the better of me. ”

As I said, the punishment is at most food restrictions or solitary confinement.

“Because you're smart, you're calculating and you're acting. ”

Lee sealed the door tightly with a psychic kick. I can't hold on much longer. Outside, the soldiers slammed the door.

“If I persuade you to follow me as an example... you will rise to the third grade because you are too strong. A third grade can't survive with that attitude. I'm sure you'll be torn to pieces. Remember Kato, the seventh squad leader who tried to kill himself. When I came in, you had the same eyes as him. ”

The door that Lee was blocking opened. As the executives came in, they overwhelmed Lee. Lee got down gently. They put handcuffs on her arms. There was no excessive violence.

“Stop it!"

Kuro exclaims in a seizure. The objects around you are all in one piece. The psychic spills from his eyes. Since I was convicted of Class S, it has become more difficult to control. Even small emotional changes produced a psychotic response.

Twitch.

The officers and soldiers who overpowered Lee Han looked at Kuro. They know Kuro's power. A powerful psychic power that repels even incoming missiles. You can kill the people in this room in a heartbeat. It's a real superbike for movies.

“… Hahn persuaded me. I will continue to receive treatment and control training. If things get better, I'll get promoted to third grade. So let me go right now. ”

Kuro felt blood gushing as he was overwhelmed by soldiers. I wanted to save Lee, even if I had the strength to kill people. I was surprised at the fact that he had such anger and courage. When the bear thought about it, it was possible to stop the missiles because his friends were around. If Kuro was alone, he sat down frightened.

It is always the strong and afflicted limit, sometimes the weak limit. Kuro now has the strength to support this.

‘I have the power to help her. I was always protected... but now I'm different. We'll be friends in equal position. ’

Lee smiled bitterly at Kuro. Joy and sadness intersected. He shakes his grabbed wrist and goes outside.

In the corridor stands Chief of Staff Alexander.

“Was it an act? Or were you serious? ”

Alexander was also overwhelmed by Lee's sudden actions. The boy who sent me to persuade him gave up. Lee Han is a boy who hears that he is rational and has a good sense of reality. That's why I didn't think I'd be doing this more. He was always the perfect boy soldier who had never let down his instructors and officers.

“Of course it was an act. ”

Lee said in a thick voice. Alexander stares at this unknowingly.

“Without even talking to me? ”

“Then you'll have a sense of reality. Their expression was amazing when they came down in panic. Now that you've completed your mission, I'll be on my way. I haven't had lunch yet. ”

Lee walked with great difficulty. Alexander felt that Lee's back was both delightful and dangerous. Lee has already made many peers on his side with intense charisma. Seriously or acting, Kuro regained his courage through his actions.

‘Dangerous charisma. That one.'

Alexander put the name Ihan deeper into his head.

Lee Han has the power to gather people. It's like a campfire in the cold. People are immersed in warmth, but campfires are burning their bodies. At first glance, Lee seems like a cool and rational person, but there is an explosive flame hiding underneath. A boy is always ready to burn.
