"Start another task"
Nothing happened after breakfast, and the stillness was enough to bore him.
[Aren't we moving too fast?]
"Even Slow"
[Ok you know best]
He lost consciousness.
[New mission started]
{-In this world, you are a soldier going to war. You will be on the front lines and fight to the death. Hero, each person you kill will turn into an energy that will strengthen your original body. Walk the path of power!-}
Different from the sound of the system, the robotic sound started the task.
[Mission: Survive and take life!]
The lashes stirred, and a pair of elegant crystals carved out from behind the lashes like a fan of white feathers. It radiated a pure glow from the clear, direct sunlight.
Thousands of soldiers around, tents made of animal skins, weathered bronze, and iron shields, metal weapons...
There is a scorching sun overhead.
A few caught prey were scorched in a fire, the bloody texture of the meat exuding a foul odor.
He is holding a rusty sword, a thin metal armor on it, and a weak horse grazing beside him.
"Eat!" He calmly looked at the man as the meat was rudely thrown in front of him.
Behaviors were not peculiar to him, and generally, everyone in the army was affected by this temperament.
He picked it up from the ground, weeded it, and brought it close to his nose.
The meat was not fully cooked, roasted with dried blood, and was made without hygienic conditions in this place where there was no water.
The foul stench couldn't stand it, causing his eyebrows to clash.
Given the quantity and condition, he should be grateful to have this meat.
He brought it to his mouth, biting hard. Blood oozed from his mouth as the hard meat was forced to part as if it was still raw.
No salt, no seasoning.
It was in stark contrast to this morning's deluxe breakfast.
[How can you still be calm?]
The system was not satisfied. He deliberately arranged such an environment, something that someone like Yun, who has lived in a good environment in both worlds, cannot necessarily endure.
On the other hand, those who find food every day would be grateful for the situation.
However, not only did he know that Yun was not from that group, but he also knew that he was a food lover.
But it didn't hold the guess right, he didn't resist the slight compulsion, and he quietly consented.
"Do I have any other choice?"
The muscle tissue of the half-chewed, half-cooked meat shattered hard on his teeth. The rusty blood taste was not unreasonably repulsive.
His eyes sparkled with determination and he whispered.
"I have desires"
And every road leading to that road was permissible.
His greatest treasure was his life, and if necessary, he would disregard his life. But on the condition that you get a lot in return!
"We are going!"
Yun hesitated as the soldiers stood up and mounted. He popped the last piece of meat into his mouth, licked his hands, and rubbed them on his clothes.
He took a water bottle from his pocket and took a sip.
No water to drink, no food, going to war, and hot!
He could feel the sweat slide down his back to his waist.
Hot.
Cicadas are scattered all around, where the yellow steppe can be seen.
The smell of sweat, the smell of meat, the smell of blood, the smell of animals...
The suffocating air was making him even more uncomfortable.
He looked around, they were slowly recovering.
"How will I get on the horse?"
[Don't worry, since the horse has a saddle, the difficulty level is relatively low. Hold the saddle with your left and right hands, put your left foot in the stirrup depending on your position, get up, and sit down with strength!]
He completed the action in one go, at the same time as he was told!
[Relax]
But after sitting down she felt nervous.
[Don't stay upright, let go of the saddle, and calmly follow my instructions]
Yun nodded decisively.
His breathing rose a little, his hand holding the saddle tensed.
[Calm down!]
He took a deep breath.
[Chest forward, shoulder back. Stand tall, make contact with the horse, and gain its trust]
He stroked his head and mane, and he could strangely sense the horse's submission and confidence.
[Take the bridle with your right hand while holding the saddle with your left hand]
[Tighten the rein, be light]
He pulled the bridle lightly and the horse began to move forward. Light steps, rocking gait...
Yun suspected that the horse was drunk.
[Hahaha! No, that's how you feel because you're riding a horse for the first time! Ahahaha...
☞║ ಥ ヮʖ ಥ║☞ ]
Of course, he wouldn't miss the opportunity to make fun of Yun.
Yun:...
I hope you have a body one day!
Due to his slow speed, Yun's initial middle position was slowly moved to the rear. Still, he did not lag behind the army.
He slowly began to adjust and his tense eyebrows began to relax.
While he was on the horse, he felt the horse advancing, curling his butt like a model woman walking. And he moved slightly left and right with each step of the horse.
After a long journey towards evening, a break was made. There was no progress due to the dangerousness of the night.
Leaning against the tree, he looked around.
Night.
The weather is cloudless, there is only a radiant full moon in the bare sky.
Indistinctly the ants in the grass are selected.
Cool.
The gentle breeze was warm and pleasant. It was bringing sleep.
He would have fallen asleep peacefully if his shoulder hadn't been poked.
"Hey, are you coming to do business with us?"
Yun looked confusedly at the man who had poked him for a while. He didn't understand what was happening.
But looking at the man's expressive smile, what came to mind instantly was the soft gaze slowly turned serious. "No," he said with sharp eyes, a face so black as to drip black ink.
Ignoring his shrug reaction, the man made his way through the shallow trees in several groups. When the silhouette disappeared, the system spoke in a mischievous and strange voice.
[Hehehe, shall I tell you what they did?]
"There's no need," she dismissed grudgingly.
Men who had been away from their wives for a long time would solve each other's needs. It was a common issue in the military, and someone as remarkable as Yun would certainly become a target.
Once again, he felt that this appearance was nothing but trouble.
He lay down on the grass, his feet comfortably bent as he put his hands under his head. With the sound of the cricket, the occasional owl hooting, and the gentle breeze, he fell asleep comfortably.
