233. Gulliver’s Travels (2)

Hwaaagh─

The bright light covers my eyes.

When I opened my eyes again, the scenery of the library was everywhere.

All you see is a training ground…?

“Hot! Hot! Hot! Haaa!”

Hundreds of people aligned with each other were swinging their swords, shedding a heavy sweat, on a training ground filled with sand and dust.

In the meantime, I tilted my head and looked at my body.

Clap, clap, clap.

Rusty chain armor on his body and a poor iron sword in his hand

Even a large helmet that covers almost the entire head.

‘Jinyuhan… Is he an ordinary soldier?’

When you receive Chairman Lina’s library quest,

The character who participates in the quest becomes one of the characters in the story.

But I have never received this quest as Jin Yuha’s character.

I didn’t know what role I would play.

What······. I know it now.

‘·······Extra. ‘Tsk.’

I didn’t have much expectations from the beginning, but as expected, Jin Yu-ha’s class is a trash character born with only one gender.

I felt like I had become a lowly soldier in Gulliver’s Travels.

‘First of all, naturally participating in the training… ‘I need to check the atmosphere.’

It was my first time becoming a junior soldier, so I had to be careful about everything.

It was a time when I was observing the training methods of other soldiers and learning them with my own eyes.

“Trainee Jin Yu-ha! Is it you again!!!”

A woman with bright yellow hair tied up and holding a spear approached me, shouting my name.

‘······Are you an instructor in the military?’

“Yes!”

I answered with a strong, disciplined posture.

From my previous military experience, I knew that it was better to show moderation in times like this.

“You always answer well…”

However, the assistant’s reaction was cold.

“You said that no matter how much war is ahead, men are not accepted into the military… Instead, it just seems like discipline is collapsing.”

She muttered loud enough for everyone to hear.

Then, those who were training around them also stopped training and turned their heads in this direction.

All of them were women.

‘Wow. It’s been a while.’

Those gazes full of contempt and regret.

It’s been so long since I’ve been treated like this that I actually feel glad.

These days, as utopia has become a reality, the people who look down on me, the head of the party, because I am a man or because of the male quota system have disappeared to the point where it can almost be said to have been wiped out.

A new realization arose in this familiar situation.

‘This is how the gender reversal is maintained in the story in the game? Well, otherwise, since Velvets is mostly female, it would be strange for the character to be active in the medieval era…’

We may not know it, but the discrimination between men and women in the Middle Ages would have been so severe that it cannot be compared to modern times.

Anyway.

If the gender reversal remains the same,

It was obvious how I, a man, would be treated during this time.

“Why did he enlist despite being a man?”

“That’s right. It came and bothered me for no reason. “It’s a real nuisance.”

“Because your face is even.” “If you just go to Changgwan and sit quietly on the bed, I will make you look pretty every night.”

“Kick. On your topic? Hey, look at his face. If I had that face, wouldn’t I have been immediately taken by noblemen and served all night?”

Yes, it will be like this.

“Trainee Jin Yu-ha.”

The instructor spoke in a cold voice, as if he couldn’t hear the soldiers around him mumbling something after stopping their training.

“Yep!”

“Did you come here to play?”

“No!”

I answered with a loud voice, regardless of whether people around me laughed at me or not.

“Okay? I stand there dumbfounded. “I thought you came to visit because you weren’t doing anything.”

“······.”

“Huh, what on earth are you going to do to me if I can’t even follow basic training properly?”

“I will do well in the future!”

“No, it will be of no use in the future. The result of what I observed today. It’s clear. We don’t need men like you in our unit. Just pack your bags and leave here right now. “This is the last mercy I can give you.”

‘Oh?’

I couldn’t help but be embarrassed by her threats

Retire as soon as you start the quest.

‘······No, fuck. ‘This is so outrageous!’

I wondered if it might be a route that leaves here and goes somewhere else.

Considering the future story, it seemed like the most standard way would be to remain in the military.

‘What should I do?’

I clenched my fists and shook my head.

“Why is there no answer? Do I have to pack my luggage myself? Is it possible that men are not good at even one of those things?”

“I am······. “I can win against anyone here.”

However, the teaching assistant seemed to have no intention of giving me time to think about it.

So, I interrupted her and answered what came out of her head.

“······What?”

Then, the teaching assistant opened his mouth and made a bewildered expression.

To be honest, if it had been said in the military, it would have been a commendable remark, but whatever. What should I do?

I can’t think of any other way right now.

Okay. The water has already been spilled.

“The value of a soldier is not his gender, but how much he can tolerate the enemy. I think it should be judged by its strength. Please give me one last chance.”

I straightened my back more confidently and spoke.

*

In the middle of the spacious training hall, a circle was formed with people surrounding it.

And in the middle of it all, a man with long black hair and a woman with yellow hair were facing each other at a distance.

It was a sparring match between me and training instructor Elena.

Roaring Roaring─

Those surrounding them surrounded them and whispered in absurd voices.

“Did he take some kind of medicine…?”

“Aren’t you crazy? There, you just got your head kicked for saying you made a mistake… My face was so smooth that I liked it as eye candy…”

“Instructor Elena never sees you as a man.”

“Well, wouldn’t it be better if I just destroyed one of the limbs? “The person who made the most fuss this time because a man was involved in the battle was that person…”

Elena, the instructor with her yellow hair tied up, pointed a wooden spear at me and spoke with her cold eyes.

“You probably didn’t know that your sparring partner would be me. Trainee Jin Yu-ha.”

“Hmm, I guess so.”

‘······I’ll just bring any other kid and have them spar. Um, can you afford this?’

Of course, I wasn’t worried about losing. I just think they’re putting too much thought into the topic of low-level soldiers.

‘Well, this isn’t just possession where the soul is transferred. I’m glad I brought my body back with me.’

If that were the case, this would have been a stroke.

My current physical condition is excellent.

It hasn’t been long since I reached 3 stars, and I also took the Fire Dragon’s Elixir just before that.

I scratched my head while holding the wooden sparring sword.

The helmet that didn’t fit had already been taken off.

Even that sight seemed like an insult to Elena.

Ppadeuk─

She gritted her teeth and spoke in a low voice.

“You said you could win a fight with anyone here. That would be true including me teaching the trainees. That is an insult to our entire fierce tiger unit.”

“Uh, sorry about that…”

“No. Don’t apologize. There is no use in regretting it now. You said with your own words that the value of a soldier is not in his gender his. So, I will deal with you with him in mind as well.”

After finishing her words, Elena glanced at her fellow instructor who was standing next to her.

Then a woman stood between me and Elena to see her judgment.

“Well, then, let’s start sparring now! The sparring opponents are Elena, Ji, and Jin Yuha! The rule is that one side becomes incapable of fighting. If you shout surrender, you will be treated as defeated!”

Then the referee, who was looking at the two people alternately, swallowed his saliva.

She lowered her hand.

“Sparring begins!”

* * *

Thud! Thud! Thud! Thud! Boom!

Elena’s her appearance her her her, charging toward Jin Yuha with her spear in front her, looked like a huge chariot.

Yet. Elena arrived within close range of Jin Yuha.

“Huhhh!!!”

A spear that begins to move dazzlingly with a powerful sound of cheers.

As if to prove that I would never look at you, a sharp sound was heard tearing the air.

Shoo! Shoo! Shoo shoo shoo! Swoowoo!

At that, everyone closed their eyes tightly.

A male trainee named Jin Yu couldn’t even maintain his posture properly in the first place even as instructor Elena approached him.

Just blankly lowering the wooden sword and watching the opponent.

It was clear that it had frozen from the fear of battle.

I went forward confidently. In the end, it’s like that.

It must have been disastrous.

“······.”

There was a moment of silence.

It was when I slowly opened my eyes.

“······Huh?”

An embarrassed voice uttered by someone.

Then, everyone widened their eyes as if they could not believe the sight before them.

“!”

There, Jin Yuha was holding her spear in one hand,

Because the sword was held against Elena’s neck

She looked up at Jin Yuha with her blank eyes.

“Well, I don’t think you will understand if I do it this way, so let me do it one more time.”

“······.”

Elena’s pupils caused an earthquake at that natural voice.
