Chances to Another Life 121. I Couldn't Understand
It felt surreal, as Adam immediately opened fire on the enemy man with his rifle. I froze as I watched, the reddish liquid soaking my cheeks and military uniform. As badly as I had fought in Swinggelir, there had never been enemy blood splashed on me. I realized that if this was the first world I had to visit, I'd probably go insane from witnessing this kind of thing all the time. Fortunately, Solace was kind enough to send me to the two worlds first. I looked at Adam, the man who had such a gentle and sweet face could also have such a fierce expression as he swept the blood splatters on his face in disgust. "You're the one who died, damn it!" he cursed at the corpse of the enemy man, which was even more disfigured. My stomach churned at the sight of him right before my eyes. Adam pulled me to my feet. "Are you okay?" he asked. I cleared my throat, only to realize that I was still holding the trigger in my hand, which I quickly put away. If Adam hadn't saved me, would I have refl
Chances to Another Life 122. The Ceasefire
I don't know if it's the effects of being tired from the mission or what, but my eyelids feel very heavy to open. I rubbed my face to shake off the sleepiness and realized that it was now a cloudy morning, accompanied by the paramedics going back and forth and the soldiers. I even only vaguely remember entering the tent with my three comrades and suddenly falling asleep due to overwhelming sleepiness. I remember being very suspicious because everything was going so smoothly, but it seemed like my worries were in vain because nothing happened to the headquarters. There were also many soldiers living in the tents and I guessed that all those assigned had returned safely when I saw the paramedic's expression, which was not very sad. I caught the figure of General Collins who was having a serious conversation with another general in the pavilion. I was curious about his role in my military career because he seemed to know me. However, there was something else that was more important, w
Chances to Another Life 123. Talking About Hometown
Apparently, the ceasefire was real. After Commander Gilbert made the announcement, we were immediately sent home and warned not to do anything that could spark another war during the peaceful period. Although I could see suspicious expressions on the soldiers' faces, none of them protested against this stipulation. Who would refuse a ceasefire? "Periodic notifications will be made, so stand by!" exclaimed General Collins. "Ready!" replied our soldiers. Afterward, the Wisqi left the headquarters area after taking a photo with the two important people from our side, perhaps as a token. They left without saying a word or putting on a friendly face, I could almost feel that dismissive look still plastered there. However, never mind. It's good news that I can avoid the responsibility of being Louis' replacement squad leader. I won't be going to the battlefield for that long either! I've dealt with danger and death too many times, I'd like to live a life of leisure for once. "Report w
Chances to Another Life 124. The Family Of Five
"My dear son, whom I love very much, you have grown into a great and wise man! Thank you for surviving and defending this country. I'm so grateful to God for having a son like you!""Mom, I'm also grateful that you're my mom. I miss you so much and think about you every day!"I stood awkwardly while glancing in random directions as I saw Adam, his father, mother, and younger sister hugging each other with tears in their eyes. It hadn't been long since we'd been unloaded from the pick-up truck that would continue on to the next town, and I was now here, in front of a classic house with a manicured white-painted fence. Although the style was classic and seemed old-fashioned with the visible chimney, I knew very well that a house like this could only be owned by rich people. The price of land must have skyrocketed by now, and according to my estimation, the time in the world ran in sync with the time in my world. That corroborated my assumption because the way civilians here dressed wa
Chances to Another Life 125. Adam's Trauma
"Hey, Joe, catch the biggest chicken! We're going to have a party and roast the chicken!" Ela shouted as she joined the hunt for other chickens in the yard. Suddenly, I moved swiftly and managed to catch the big hen, which kept struggling until I gave it to Ela. "Wow, thank you!" she exclaimed excitedly. Three days had passed since I'd settled in, and nothing had happened. When we arrived, the next day Adam and I immediately reported to the guard post, which was only manned by two people, whereas there were usually five on guard. Well, that proves that the truce went well without anything to worry about. Therefore, my daily life now was to be invited by Ela to follow her wherever she went. She always argued that she would take me to do exciting activities, but she actually took me to the river to fish which had to pass through swamps, as well as telling me to feed the chickens and take care of the plants. I didn't mind, but this made me feel like a little sister when I was with El
Chances to Another Life 126. I Came Back!
The soldier with the rank of major drew me out with his sharp gaze, accompanied by two furrowed eyebrows as if he was wondering if I was still sane. He then sighed heavily as he whispered something to his partner who was also staring at me with a fierce look. Being stared at like that by two guard soldiers, I could only maintain a flat face with a perfect attitude. There are now 10 soldiers chosen by General Collins and Commander Gilbert gathered here. Of course I was replacing Adam, even that man had suddenly caught a fever just as I was about to leave here. "Joe, thank you. When my condition improves, I'll follow you to the battlefield. Wait for me there, I won't forgive you if you die."Those were Adam's words just before I grabbed a large military bag of supplies and excused myself from his house. "Don't push yourself. I'll wait for you." That was the only reply I made after saying goodbye to Adam's family members, who all had worried faces. Mrs. Rein was worried about me, but
Chances to Another Life 127. Explosion
I had no idea whatsoever that cleaning up drones meant combing through the piles of drones that were piled high like mountains of garbage abandoned by the janitor. I picked up the object, which was shaped like any other drone in my world, an infrared dot still lit up in the center that I assumed served as a camera. Without thinking, I immediately separated it into another pile for the experts to clean up. Of course, I'm not an expert in technological matters. Presumably 50 soldiers were now combing this red-soil field area. I don't know what this area used to be, but it's certain that no human being would want to live around here with natural conditions that are fairly arid and uncomfortable. The T-shirt I was wearing was even soaked in sweat, even though I'm not someone who sweats easily. The other 25 people were in charge of clearing mines, so in addition to having to separate the piled-up drones, I also had to tiptoe carefully so as not to die silly. It was now getting late in
Chances to Another Life 128. I Wish I Could Run Away
I never took dreams seriously, but this time I really wanted to wake up and escape from everything that had happened. This memory was very vivid because of the pain I was still suffering all over my body after being bounced around by the bomb blast. Particles of dirt were wafting through the air so my vision was limited, but I could faintly hear screams and bodies clad in army uniforms in the distance. It would undoubtedly be fine if I got hit by a bomb, after all, I wouldn't be able to die. However, what bothered me the most was the sergeant's remark that Greenish had been destroyed. That was impossible. How could that be? According to the information I knew, Greenish and other food supply areas had very strict guards and not just anyone could enter there. I even had to go naked to be checked to make sure that I wasn't carrying anything suspicious when I visited the village with Adam. Then, at the same time, my eyes closed because it was so hard to maintain consciousness. I was
