The Skill Maker

Tinderbox (1)

It's never easy to abandon the home of life.

No. None of the people with abilities thought they were giving up. This is just a temporary farewell. I will come back to this land one day, and I will say goodbye for a while until that day comes. People were just so sworn in as they were to their hearts.

Or I couldn't take my step back.

"Whoa... you bastards. It's been a week and a week and a half already driving me crazy. I'm sick and tired of it now."

The wizard was disgusted.

The fanatics have repeatedly attacked everywhere.

Now, even the resistance area is full of the spirit of war.

A great number of enemies have already crossed the mountain range.

"I agree. But what can I do? I'm so glad they don't come running right now."

"That's right. As the area widened, the leaders of the enemy were scattered everywhere. Of course, it's a no-no for this side to be defeated."

"Hey, fellas! Everybody move when it's time to talk. It's Estvalde in a little further."

[Ha. It reminds me of the old days.]

People had left the area with only important luggage, and were waging minor local battles throughout the resistance, causing clashes with fanatics on the side of Armudor. Of course, these conflicts have been increasing over time.

"And the local kids are on the move. At this rate, more than 80 million troops may be gathered on the ground."

"...hm. That would be a final problem, wouldn't it?"

There's already been a message from the leadership that we don't have to worry about that. You seem to have your own way of thinking.]

Delborg and the able men nodded and diligently teased their feet.

Even if it is true, the item is no different from the war of ordinary intellects. Because talented people don't have to consume a lot of food. In other words, war supplies here are not like groceries, but rather like 이, , , 등.

Then I opened this mouth.

"The truth is, I heard from a commie earlier. I think there's a victory signal already ringing on the mainland because they're already in a row. They've already taken over 100 fortresses in three days. Besides, he completely exterminated the local fanatics?"

"Oh!? Is that real?"

"It's over, isn't it? 100? How was that possible?"

[They're fighting so well on the mainlanders are fighting so well? That's why there's no generals on this side?]

Colleagues who heard Graham's story were carried away with excitement.

If that's really true, it's the best good news at this point.

What talented people need now is hope.

The belief that we can win this war.

For your information, the current leadership of the General Association of Competent People wanted the power of all our allies to be fully united in one area, as in the past. and some parts of the country were cited as the centerpiece. In other words, the reason why they are marching like this now was also to add strength to the war. Of course, it's dangerous to be left alone in the back area.

Delborg kicked his tongue at his excited colleagues.

You guys are so simple-minded.

I'm glad you guys are so comfortable inside.

"Well, it's a temporary phenomenon anyway. If the corps leaders start to gather, the winning streak will be tough. In other words, the surprise attack on the mainland just worked. In short, this time, the timing was just right. You all know that, right? The commander-in-chief's skills."

But the other way around.

This time, colleagues who heard the words of the wizard Delborg kicked their tongues.

It's like pouring water on a barely lit bonfire.

Anyway, I'm worried that he's a maniac.

"Bad boy. Why are you so negative about everything? Even so, great is great. There's a lot of people on the Armudor side who are capable of [confusion] and [destruction]? Anyway, isn't it a compliment to break through that line of defense?"

"Gamon is right. Besides, I heard that the loss of troops destroyed the temple without a single drop. That's [S] class combat power.

"Unexpectedly, we may have a chance of winning. No matter how many of those damn monsters they're dealing with."

Delborg shrugged.

Yeah, people all have different ideas.

This is why sometimes I envy the physically challenged.

You don't have to think as much as you do.

The act of thinking is already a habit to oneself.

"They're... See you again."

Delborg recalled the nightmare of the First Great War.

The memory of those days when we struggled to survive. The memory of the terrible war, which was fought frantically against the fanatics with blood in its mouth. And the situation was on the horizon again.

Allot beat Delborg on the back.

"Relax yourself. It's okay. This time there's information on this side, too. I know how to deal with them, so I'm not going to be unilaterally beaten like I was in the early days of the First Great War."

"My back stings, man. Yeah. Anyway, I'd like to believe that."

[Actually, we, too, at the end of the day, drove the commanders over the mountain range, right? This fight is just an extension of it.]

"And there's another, and two billion men of ability have come back. Things aren't bad."

"The odds are... ...there's a chance. Maybe."

Delborg eventually smacked and burst into laughter.

But what do they believe and hope for?

When I look at these guys, everything feels like a useless worry.

No. Maybe it's really useless.

the unseen consequences of the future

"Kicking, idiots. Anyway, my head is full of rose-colored future... Yeah. But I'm glad you guys are positive idiots. I'm just a jerk, so I'much."

"What, man?"

The talented people mingled and giggled and burst into laughter.

Whatever the result, I want to laugh and chat right now.

I want to shake off the psychological pressure.

at the time when the First Great War had just begun

From the beginning, the commanders displayed unimaginable power without filtering, driving the able men to the west end of the Great Plains in an instant. More than 10 million victims and countless beings wailing and dying. However, the competent people were not being held back, so the desperate situation was a key contribution to the planting of a sense of cooperation among the capable.

That was the beginning of the creation.

Soon it had been a prelude to a real counterattack.

When united, live; when dispersed, die.

When top-notch people gather, the commander of the corps can also be prevented.

Let's figure out their abilities and set up countermeasures.

Thus the war deepened.

for as many years

Of course, it took more than a year since then to get a good grasp of the ability of the 13 generals. And in a short period of time, the number of deaths was already well over 15 million. It was also clear that the damage was much greater than expected.

However, it was the foundation for a quick response and a collision-control system, which eventually led to the six areas that could be extracted from them. In other words, the important thing was information. This time there is information about the other side.

That was hope again.

"We've won in the past. I'm gonna get through this again."

It's not my cup of tea, but... Even if it's harder than last time, I believe it will work out somehow.]

"If you don't die, you'll be black. It's a given that the universe will be destroyed if the Armudors win. Someday I'll come here to pick a few things, so what's the point of living a little longer? At this point, he has no regrets about his life."

"Baby, pretend to be cool. But I feel the same way. Even if you die for the first time, you can't die shivering. If you're going to lose and die anyway, let's die in the best form."

Delborr laughed.

In fact, even before the beginning of this war was quite skeptical.

Well, it's probably because the conflict between and killed quite a few top-notch people, and the harmony between the two was not easy to achieve. Honestly, given the state of things half a year ago... The possibility of a proper establishment of this war was near zero. The goal of Red and Blue's antagonism was pretty deep, and it was the Red Alliance boss who led it.

But nevertheless.

Clan with the WISE succeeded in unifying the forces by graceing both sides. Once again the flames of hope were burning hot in everyone's hearts. And now that it has been revealed that the 10th Army Commander has separated the men of ability from each other, the unity of the two sides has become stronger like the land after the rain.

Yeah. You can win.

From now on, you will believe so.

Like these stupid coworkers.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

Oh, wow!

But it was then.

A huge roar from the northern forest.

And the people who are capable... He contorted his face reflexively.

Here we go again. Those crazy assholes.

You've been quiet for 10 minutes.

"What is it, again?"

"Oh, well, old chicks, by the way."

"You don't even give me time to indulge in that. Now..."

"They don't even eat? You don't even sleep? You don't even poop?"

Delborg boosted his eyesight.

"Let's see. Judging by the flag... Ah. Looks like they're on the side. Then you have to watch out for their claws. They're the ones who pump out up to five strong flags at once. There's nothing much else."

"Okay, I got it. What are you doing? Everybody get your weapons...!"

"Kill all those bastards like they did before!"

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

The men of ability, both of them, took out their weapons and injected mana into them, and began running like lightning toward the fanatics.

The two camps that soon create a violent clash.

Now the land was at its full sight. The march is not very fast, but if we get through this battle without a hitch, we will face the area in the next day. And so I couldn't lose even more.

"It's us who win..."

"Kill them all!"

[Dear Armudor...!]

[Forscrem Demindion! Forscrem Armoodorr!]

Qua Qua Qua Kung!

I was supposed to meet Dozle and discuss with him the next day, and I headed for the third basement floor as soon as noon came. For now, he had to listen to an explanation of the progress of the restoration, and he was also promised to keep track of what should be noted in the process. And this, in reverse, was likely to be of considerable help in disrupting the restoration work.

Huh? Why?

That's because if the Dozle does something he shouldn't do, it's going to be even more of a mess. In short, it could also be said that the "cautions for restoration" are the "weakness" of the time axis. So I was going to take this opportunity to listen carefully to every little piece of information. To screw up the Armudor and the Commander of the Legion properly.

We'll see.

Is the world so easy? I'm going to ruin everything and stop you from waking up. And in the meantime, I'll wipe out the corpses and the fanatics from the planetary system. Choi Minhyuk is the last one to laugh.

The presence that emerges in the opposite aisle at the moment.

It was none other than the 13th Army Commander.

To avoid suspicion, I and she used different rooms last night. And that was so natural. Because other commanders think there's no point of contact between them. If the two of us used the same residence, we could immediately have a suspicious eye. In other words, unnaturalness immediately becomes poison.

[Crrrrrrrrr... Go in.]

[Agreed]

Buck. Buck.

[You're here, Kahama, Pluto-na. The VIPs are waiting. Please go inside.]

I tilted my head inwardly, listening to the guard.

Distinguished guests?

What are you talking about? "Dul"?

Does that mean there's someone else here besides us?

Wasn't he waiting for us alone?

What are you talking about all of a sudden?
