An advanced military base warped into multiple timelines. In this terrible time and space, Alex have struggled in multiple war-torn battlefields again and again. From the Somme in the First World War to the Second World War; with Berlin under the Allied attack. Alex never knows when it is the end. His purpose is only one: go home from this wretched chaos! 

Yet this wish is.... a tad bit difficult to achieve.


*This is my first novel to write and is heavily inspired by 'Unlimited Military Base'* 

Note: The earlier chapters would be a 'conversion' of the first transcripts of the Unlimited Military base. But the following time travels would be different compared to the canon as I would probably cover the Korean war and etc. But you can think of this a fan-fiction or something as it is strikingly similar to 'Unlimited Military base'.

 Pls. bare with me and not be triggered in ways that this is just a 'conversion of 'Unlimited Military Base'.

The day is 2, the month is May, the year is 2020 ... On this date, a chain of conflicts began around the world, a new world war was about to break out.

 On the Korean peninsula, in the morning, in a sunny climate, the South Koreans, who were living quietly, had their lives interrupted by the attack from the north.  An artillery barrage hit Seoul, including ... a tactical atomic bomb was used against the South Korean armed forces.

 At the same time, the North Koreans also suffered from southern artillery, and also received a nuclear attack in return.

 The area once demilitarized, was now devastated, just 1 hour after the start of the conflict, both armies were fighting across the border, the southern and northern air forces were trying to gain an advantage, but were only able to increase the number of dead with bombings  .

 In the middle of the chaos was Ralph.  Dirty from feet to head with mud and ash, he was currently trying to go further south.

 Unfortunately for Ralph, he was caught in the middle of the conflict, and even saw the flash of nuclear explosions from afar.

 The nuclear explosions caused chaos in communications and even destroyed the circuits of his communication equipment, making it impossible to communicate with HQ through him.

 "It's for real, this world is lost ..." Ralph murmured when he realized that nuclear weapons were used.

 "I have to get out of here before one of these explodes over my head."

 Ralph looked at the southern horizon and sighed, he could see a huge smokescreen stretching across the sky.

 Suddenly Ralph heard the sound of gunshots, and explosions close to where he was and he stood up while invisible.

 There was a fight between squadrons from the north and the south, they were competing for a position at the top of the hill, which would ensure greater flexibility in the area.

 Ralph didn't think much and decided to help the South Koreans, since the damn war started was the North Koreans.

 There were about fifty men on each side, with the majority being just soldiers and a portion being sergeants and officers.

 Due to the numerous trees in the area, the conflict was in a complex state, since the enemy could easily hide.

 The South Koreans were concerned with the advance of the North Koreans in the area, and they need to secure their position on the hill, which is steep and has only one way of climb, for a less steep part on the west side.

 Neither side was willing to let the other climb the hill, which was about a hundred meters high in relation to the surrounding terrain.

 After half an hour of conflict, the South Koreans realized that, strangely, the numbers of the North Koreans were rapidly decreasing.

 The officers, concerned about a pincer attack, ordered half the soldiers to observe the rear and flanks, while the other half advanced towards the mount.

 After about fifteen minutes, however, there was no sign of North Koreans anymore.

 "Did they back off?"  An officer asked himself, he didn't know that Ralph had helped them.

 After killing the fifty North Koreans, Ralph was a little disappointed to find that he didn't earn any stat points.

 -It seems that killing ordinary people doesn't really score points ...
 Ralph thought and I think that was nothing but fair.  Otherwise, he would only need to kill several thousand people and he would become invincible in this world.  Not that he liked the idea, of course.

 After breaking up with the enemy, Ralph recovered almost all the energy he had consumed before.  Thanks to the strong vitality he has.

 Without hesitating, he started running towards the South again.

 He went through several conflicts between the two sides of the war, but decided not to waste time, he could not change the course of the war.

 After two hours of intermittent running at full speed, Ralph was finally able to see a city on the horizon.

 Unfortunately, the city was razed by artillery and there were few survivors.

 Ralph was about to continue running towards the South when suddenly he felt something ... Looking to the side, Ralph saw strange lights flashing on the horizon, it didn't seem like an ordinary fight.

 Ralph hesitated for a moment and went to the lights.

 There, two Aura Masters were fighting a bloody battle.  The two had used their respective domains to try to crush the other, but were unsuccessful since they have equal strength.

 Ralph felt that he was at roughly the same level of strength as the two of them.  But they were able to use more complex Aura skills.  The one who had a North Korean uniform used a skill that manipulates fire, and the other, who uses a South Korean uniform, uses an ability that manipulates air ...

 Ralph, however, knows that he has greater versatility thanks to the ability to illusion.

 Without much hesitation, Ralph prepared a space punch, his right fist started to glow in green light.

 After aiming at the enemy, Ralph punched him.

 The North Korean, who was engaged in the battle, had no time to react and was hit directly on the head by the blow, splitting his skull and killing him instantly.

 The South Korean looked at Ralph in surprise and asked in Korean:

 "Why are you hiding?"

 Ralph did not understand his words but he dispelled the illusion.

 "You can speak English?"  Ralph asked in English.

 "... Are you american?"  The Aura Master asked in English.

 "No. I'm Japanese. I need to contact some of your superiors."  Ralph shook his head and spoke.

 "Sorry, I'm currently on an important assignment. Besides, I can't completely trust you, you understand me right?"  The South Korean spoke.

 -It is certainly stupid to reveal the location of important army officers to a stranger.
 Ralph thought and nodded before turning and starting to walk in one direction.

 "Good luck buddy."  The South Korean screamed and also started to move in one direction.

 As Ralph ran south, he was increasingly shocked by the destruction left by the long-range artillery from the north.  The roads were destroyed, the small towns were decimated, even the fields became a zone of destruction.

 After hours of running, Ralph faced a total of five Aura Masters, all North Koreans.  In addition, he killed about 100 ordinary soldiers, helping many South Koreans.

 -How strange, why are there so many North Korean troops in the south?  They should have been stopped at the border ... What happened?
 Ralph asked himself confused.

 -Unless the war has become a real chaos, both armies should be completely in the demilitarized zone, fighting against each other ...

 Ralph decided to ask a South Korean officer who he saved, and got an explanation.

 "The North Koreans had infiltrated through amphibious units before artillery launched the attack. We were taken by surprise and the army had to split up to deal with the invaders."  The officer spoke and then continued.

 "But due to our intelligence, we were able to react quickly enough to avoid a strategic defeat, these North Koreans are now trying to retreat to the north."

 Ralph thanked the officer for his explanation and continued to march south.

 Unfortunately for Ralph, all the communication networks he passed through were destroyed, there was no way for him to communicate with HQ.

 He also didn't know where the top South Korean officers were, only they could help him.

 What Ralph did not know, is that information from a mysterious long-haired Aura Master who helped the South Koreans had appeared was spreading across the information network of both armies.



 After running for a while again, Ralph finally spotted Seoul.  The city was on fire ...

 Ralph clenched his fists and imagined the death toll in this situation.

 -Fortunately, the city was not hit by a nuclear attack.
 Ralph thought and then found an abandoned car on the track.

 After getting into the car and checking the condition, he started the engine and started driving in the direction of the city.

 -To count on the South Koreans is unrealistic at the moment, I need a way to communicate with HQ.
 Ralph thought as he took care of the wreckage on the track.

 There was no sign of North Koreans in the city, and only the sad faces of the people appeared in Ralph's vision.

 "Tsk ..." Ralph clicked his tongue and continued driving.

 A small girl screamed as her mother's body was pressed by a large piece of concrete that fell from an overpass.

 Ralph couldn't help himself and stopped the car.  He went down and went over to the girl, who looked to be five years old.

 "Your mother ... She's ..." Ralph tried but couldn't speak, so he decided to ask:

 "Where's her father?"

 The girl looked at Ralph with a confused expression.

 Ralph then remembered, he can't speak Korean.  His emotions his clouded his judgment.

 -I know I can't save the world, I can't save everyone ... But I don't feel well seeing an innocent person suffering and still not helping.
 Ralph reflected with clenched fists.

 After a moment's hesitation, Ralph reached out a hand toward the wreck on top of the girl's mother.

 He then went to the wreck and lifted it with both hands, with great effort.  That must have weighed more than two hundred pounds.  He then threw the wreck to the side.

 The girl looked at Ralph in astonishment for a moment before running to her mother.

 She started to say something Ralph didn't understand to her mother's body, and started to cry.

 Ralph clenched his teeth and knocked the girl out as gently as possible.

 He then put the girl and her mother's body in the car and started driving again.

 After about five minutes, Ralph saw a policeman helping some people on the side of a building.

 Ralph stopped the car next to him and put the girl and her mother nearby.  After that, he used a small stone, which he threw at the policeman, to get his attention.

 The policeman looked in Ralph's direction, but saw only the girl and the bloody body of a woman lying on the floor.  Since Ralph was invisible.

 Ralph got in the car and started driving again, leaving the rest to the cop.

 Unfortunately for Ralph, the car ran out of gas after a few minutes, and he had to continue on foot.

 Ralph stopped in front of a large business building, which was miraculously intact, and entered the building looking for a form of communication.

 Ralph found several computers and cell phones, unfortunately for him, most of the country's infrastructure was destroyed, and there was no internet or signal for calls.

 Ralph blew out a breath and stored a cell phone and notebook in the space ring.

 -The way things are ... It will be difficult to leave the country.  Even if I catch a plane, it will probably be shot down.  A boat is also out of the question ... How the hell am I going to get out of here?
 Ralph thought.

 -If I go north ... If I reach mainland China, and the country is not yet at war with someone else, I may be able to return to Japan.
 Ralph considered a possibility but shook his head.

 -Thinking is easy, but it is probably impossible for me to advance north to China.

 Ralph then began a journey in an attempt to find a way out of the Korean peninsula.

 For the next three days, he left Seoul and went to the conflict zone on the coast in search of a form of communication.

 Ralph's hand increasingly stank of blood, literally, he hadn't taken a shower since he arrived and was looking like a genuine monster.

 Ralph suffered several injuries on the way, whether fighting or fleeing, or simply by bad luck.

 In the meantime, his control over Aura has increased exponentially in combat, with increased experience.

 In addition, he obtained information that nuclear bombs had been used again, in the area that was previously demilitarized.  Fortunately, they were just small tactical warheads, and had no potential to end life on the peninsula.

 Still, Ralph became increasingly nervous, the war could simply escalate to a level of mutual death.

 In these long days, Ralph didn't have time to rest or sleep, he was in continuous movement, fighting, running, running ...

 On his fourth day on the peninsula, Ralph was on the coast watching a small boat on the beach, it was really small.

 -Stopping to think, would the enemy's navy pay too much attention to a small boat?  So far this is the most viable idea.
 Ralph thought and went to the small boat.

 The boat was rowing, and was about five meters long, one meter wide.  It was in good repair.

 -The problem is that if I sink, I will be adrift without any prospect of help in the middle of the ocean.
 Ralph considered the risk but sighed.

 He was in a hurry, he wanted to get off the peninsula as soon as possible, he wants to escape this place that is in danger of becoming a nuclear tomb.

 Ralph pushed the boat against the waves and got on it.

 He did not use the oars, first he used the illusion ability to create an impulse in the boat, creating an illusory engine.

 The boat quickly shot off towards Japan, which was a long way away.

 Ralph made himself and the boat invisible, to escape the observations of drones and soldiers.

 After half an hour, Ralph spotted a sea battle on the horizon.  While cursing, Ralph changed his route to avoid the conflict.

 After hours of surfing, Ralph started to feel a little tired due to energy consumption and decided to pause a little.  He cannot spend all of his energy in order not to be caught off guard.

 After resting for half an hour, Ralph started to propel the boat again.

 One day ... Two days ... During this time, Ralph observed many sea and air battles.  Both sides seemed to be anxious and the battles became very frequent.

 In the meantime, Ralph had to endure hunger, but he had no problem with water, as he can desalinate sea water alone.

 It is no use eating something illusory, though, since the energy has to come from somewhere.

 Ralph was mentally exhausted, but he put up with the pressure.  He continued sailing towards Japan, he used a compass to stay on track.

 On the third day of sailing, Ralph finally arrived ... in Japan.

 "Finally !! I'm back !!"  Ralph screamed out loud in the middle of a deserted beach and started laughing out loud.

 "Now ... I need food."  Ralph said and looked in one direction.

 It was night, the sky was cloudy, everything was dark, except for one point on the horizon.

 - Is it a residence?  Or a hotel?
 Ralph wondered and walked towards the light.

 As he walked on the beach and heard the sound of the waves breaking, Ralph slowly approached the point.  He liked the feeling of returning to a safe place after days in the war.

 The light came from a hut on the beach, it was small and humble, but there were people inside and the chimney gave off smoke and the smell of food.

 Ralph swallowed his own spit and knocked on the cabin door a few times.

 "Who is it?"  A male voice asked from inside the hut, was it Japanese.

 Ralph breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the Japanese language and said:

 "Sorry to bother you, can I talk to you for a moment?"

 After a few seconds, the door opened, and a middle-aged man appeared in Ralph's vision.

 "What do you want? Isn't it too late to visit a stranger?"  The man spoke with an alert expression.

 "I know, I'm sorry about that."  Ralph spoke and bowed slightly forward.

 "... Besides, what happened to you? Why does it look like it just came out of a stinky hole?"  The man asked as he analyzed Ralph's appearance.

 "Ah!"  Ralph exclaimed and remembered that he hadn't taken a bath in a while, he could have cleaned up in the sea but ended up forgetting while considering more important things.

 "..." Ralph didn't know what to say and the man suddenly sighed.

 "Don't tell me you're a refugee from Korea? I didn't expect anyone to be able to escape that place by the sea."  The man spoke.

 "... I need something, I am willing to pay for it."  Ralph suddenly spoke.

 "What do you need?"  The man asked with a hand behind, Ralph realized that the man was holding an iron staff.

 "...Food."  Ralph spoke with a bitter smile.

Struggling with his own choices, bordering the abyss of time, Ralph tries to find the way... to freedom, he doesn't want to be held hostage by destiny again.

The story begins when the world decides so.

This book is a work of fiction.

June 15th, 2019 16:00 (Ethiopia Standard Time 10:00)

Ethiopia, the outer slums of Addis Ababa.

In an open field outside of Addis Ababa, 50,000 Ethiopian citizens and government workers sat around a large stage. On the stage, a peace choir of Ethiopian and Korean children sang the song "Arirang" in a soothing tone. 

As the tranquil song rang out, a group of old men sang along with the bits they remembered from 60 years ago. Tears ran down their faces. These men had left their home country of Ethiopia, journeyed to Korea in the far East, and fought for democracy in the Korean War.

Ethiopia sent a total of 6,037 soldiers during the Korean War. Among them, 123 died and 536 were injured. After 1974, a communist government gained power in Ethiopia and accused those who fought in the Korean War of being rebels towards the communist government. Instead of being treated like heroes that protected democracy, they were fired from their jobs and had to hide their participation in the war. They were often forced to leave their homes and live in the slums. In 1991, an interim government was established. The veterans were given pensions again, but it was less than five dollars each month. That wasn't nearly enough to live on, even after the veterans were thrust down to the lowest social class. 

The bravery and sacrifice of the Ethiopian people allowed Korea to develop the fifth most powerful economy in the world, but the Ethiopian veterans were cast down to the lowest social class. Their descendants lived in poverty. After founding the Humanitarian Cooperative for Korean War Participants, the Korean government decided to make Ethiopia their first stop.

When the singing was over, the children's choir split in half and a middle-aged man walked forward to the stage. A moment later, he fell to his knees and bowed to the 50,000 Ethiopian citizens. The crowd began buzzing at the sight of the unusual greeting, but they seemed to understand the meaning behind it, and applause began to sweep through the crowd. After the middle-aged man got back to his feet, he took the microphone and spoke. 

"Hello everyone? Thank you. I am Youn Hyun-jin, the representative of Korea."

When the Humanitarian Cooperative for Korean War Participants was established, ex-Minister of Welfare Youn Hyun-jin was appointed as the organization's first leader. 

"First, with all my heart, I would like to thank the veterans who risked their lives to protect Korea's democracy 69 years ago, the citizens who supported us, and the deceased emperor Haile Selassie."

In response, the crowd of Ethiopian citizens applauded.

"The Korean citizens and I all know that without the Ethiopian veterans, citizens, and emperor Haile Selassie, I wouldn't be standing here today. You are the reason we preserved our democracy and grew strong. We are grateful, and we are also sorry. We feel guilt for coming too late. We should have thanked each veteran when they were alive, but now there are only 30 left, and we are sorry and ashamed."

Director Youn Hyun-jin seemed to choke up during his opening words, and he took a second to breathe deeply before continuing his speech. 

"Korea will work with Ethiopia from now on. Ethiopia sacrificed lives to protect our nation 69 years ago. You are a blood ally. We promise aid on a national level that we will do our best to make this nation happy and a great place to live in."

When Director Youn Hyun-jin's greeting was finished, the 30 veterans seated in the front cried tears of joy. An old veteran who left his nation at the tender age of 18 stood at the front of the crowd. He had suffered through a bitter cold he never felt, and watched as his friends died. He waved the Korean flag high in the sky with his left hand, because he had lost his right hand to a gunshot wound.

"My friends who are gone, your deaths were not in vain!" the old veteran shouted.

After the ceremony, the Humanitarian Cooperative for Korean War Participants spent five days meeting with investment corporations and the Ethiopian government. They formed a memorandum of understanding to promote investment between the two nations. This allowed both nations to form a business partnership with the purpose of showing gratitude towards the veterans in the Korean War.

Policies for the Korean War veterans and their descendants:

1. A 20,000 dollar payment for each veteran (10,000 dollars for deceased veterans, an additional 5000 dollars for injured veterans, and a monthly payment of 100 dollars to surviving veterans).

2. Housing for veterans.

3. Free education and the opportunity to study abroad in Korea for up to three generations of veterans' descendants. If desired, aid would be given in seeking employment in Korea. 

4. Free flights for families of veterans. 

5. A commemorative building for Korean War veterans.

Policies for the Ethiopian government:

1. Provide and exchange investment information for promoting the economy, and conduct joint research. (Establish facilities and technology for primary and secondary industries, and jointly create corporations for tertiary industries).

2. Jointly promote various industries and investments. (Build five large general clinics across the nation, roads that connect each state, 100 elementary schools, and 200 water filtering facilities).

3. Share investment attraction experience and dispatch experts: establish Ethiopian branches of corporations from Korea and build factories for cars, semiconductors, and other electronics. (Joint development, surveying of underground resources, and transferral of experts in medicine, law, and other fields).

The Humanitarian Cooperative for Korean War Participants had chosen Ethiopia as their first target because of its attractiveness to foreign investors and its population. With its 96.63 million citizens, it was the second most populated nation in Africa. 

It was also intended to restart the 5-year economic growth plan dubbed "Growth Transformation Plan." The plan had been finished in 2015, and a GTP 2 couldn't be enacted under the threat of war. However, the final reason for choosing Ethiopia was the special minerals that could only be mined in Ethiopia. This reason was carefully kept secret. Therefore, the Korean government used the investments and aid to gain control of development rights for as many natural resources as possible.

June 17th, 2019 19:30 (Ethiopia Standard Time 13:30)

Ethiopia Addis Ababa slums. 

Two hundred children gleefully played soccer in an open park, using soccer balls given to them by the Humanitarian Cooperative for Korean War Participants. Despite wearing poorly made shoes or being barefoot as they played on the rough dirt, none of the children had sadness on their faces. Everyone was smiling brightly. The reason for their joy was simple; the 1500 cobbled-together houses of the nearby shantytown would be torn down, and a large scale housing development would be constructed to replace them. These children were descendants of the veterans from the Korean War. 

Employees from the Humanitarian Cooperative walked over to the playing children, their arms full. They were carrying snacks and candy prepared privately for the children. When one of the employees clapped his hands for the children to gather, all of them stopped playing soccer and gathered around. After they received the candy and snacks, their faces lit up. Some danced in delight, while others immediately tore into the food. 

Chief Oh Eun-ah from the Humanitarian Cooperative saw a little girl who was holding her snacks instead of eating them. She bent down to ask the girl a question.

"Why aren't you eating?"

The child put the snacks on the floor with wide eyes and signed towards Chief Oh Eun-ah. When Oh Eun-ah became embarrassed because she didn't know sign language, one of the boys answered instead.

"She is going to take it back home to her sister."

"Oh, how kind of you. I will give you more for your sibling as well, so you can eat them now."

When the little boy conveyed the message via sign language, the girl carefully unwrapped the snacks and began eating.

"Why can't she speak?" Chief Oh Eun-ah asked the boy.

"She's been malnourished since she was little, so she can't talk. Her younger sister is too weak to leave the house."

Chief Oh Eun-ah swallowed the lump in her throat and blinked rapidly to get rid of the tears in her eyes so the children wouldn't see.

"Where do you live?" she asked the girl with a smile.

When the boy translated in sign language for the girl, she pointed towards her house. Chief Oh Eun-ah called over another employee.

"Mr. Kang?"

"Yes, Chief Oh."

"Bring a variety of snacks for her to take home."

"All right."

When Kang Hyun-ho handed the little girl a bag packed with snacks, she bowed her head repeatedly in thanks. 

This might have been the happiest that these children had been in their lives. These children had inherited suffering because of what the communist government did to their grandfathers. As the kids returned to their homes, the employees of the Humanitarian Cooperative hoped that they would be able to live better lives from now on. 

The next day, after making an official report to the Humanitarian Cooperative, Chief Oh visited the home of the girl she had met the previous day. Flies buzzed around the hut, and unwashed blankets covered a bed made of wooden planks. On top of the bed was a gaunt six-year-old girl.

The girl's grandmother told Chief Oh that her father-in-law was an officer from the emperor's personal guard. He went to fight in the Korean War in 1951, and he passed away on the eastern front when her husband was two years old. When the communist regime gained power in 1971, her husband couldn't find a job because his father had been labeled a rebel. Therefore, he had worked as manual labor his entire life, but they were always too poor to leave the slums.

Her eldest son died from disease, and her daughter left two children behind to work in the city, so the grandmother took care of the children herself. The eldest child lost her voice from malnutrition, and the second was too weak to walk. Chief Oh and the other employees from the Humanitarian Cooperative all had tears in their eyes again, and their hearts tightened and ached.

When the girls' grandfather returned home after an hour, Humanitarian Cooperative told them about the various sources of aid that were available to them. Chief Oh decided to take their six-year-old granddaughter to the hospital immediately. Also, she made notes to provide food, money, and other necessities to the family until the official reparations were paid. 

As the first stage of the New Vision Committee's plan got underway, the Humanitarian Cooperative for Korean War Participants expanded their aid from Ethiopia to Columbia, the Phillippines, Thailand, and South Africa.

A novel about the Government and its people becoming one to raising their country back up.
A militaristic style novel that implements slight futuristic technology as the plot's basis.

Sungwoo led the undead army to Busan Port. The Japanese troops left behind at the port were preparing to retreat, but more than half of the battleships were already sailing offshore.
"I can't just let you guys leave like that."
Sungwoo immediately dispatched a group of Bone Wyverns.
Since fixed turrets were installed on the back of Bone Wyverns, they launched indiscriminate air bombardment at their battleships.
Eventually, Sungwoo succeeded in wiping out all the remnants of the Japanese server's invading forces.
Their battleships were sunk deep in the sea, and that was the end of the Korean and Japanese war.
-The Korean server has won the final victory in the '1st Korean-Japanese War!
* Reward is given in proportion to the contribution of the Korean server.
-'Rewards for the 1st Korean-Japanese war are given. 
* Contribution: 1st place
* Reward: 30,000,000 gold
* Additional reward: 'War Hero' title.
-You have acquired the title of 'War Hero'.
* All stats increase (+2)
"Well, Necromancer? Is our fight over now?" asked the new leader of the Hwarang Guild. Sungwoo shook his head and said, "I don't know what else they did somewhere on this land. Mobilize your troops to search for suspicious stuff, especially look for the traces of the Evolution Society."
Sungwoo could not let the Evolution Society guys escape this time. So, he asked not only the Hwarang Guild but also the Hunter Company and the "Wide Area Surveillance Team" of the Liberation Guild to chase those affiliated with the Evolutionary Society. Junghoon also accepted Sungwoo's request. 
"They will go into hiding for some time. So, we have to track them down when they have revealed themselves next."
The Liberation Guild knew very well that neglecting them was like raising terrorists.
"Thank you."
"They are our public enemy."
As a result, Sungwoo's allies began the largest search operation of all time. They originally intended to find the hidden main stronghold of the Evolution Society by tracking the movement path of the Evolutionary Society everywhere, starting in Busan. 
But strangely enough, their traces were found in a place that they had never expected.
It was none other than the 2nd Korean-Japanese War quest.
[Server Quest]
-Title: The 2nd Korean-Japanese War: Bloody Return Match
-Type: War
-Purpose: Winning the war
-Compensation: to be announced later
The first Korean-Japanese War broke out due to the Japanese server's attack. And it was the Korean server, the defender, that raised the flag of victory.
And this time the Korean server is given a chance to counterattack. It is up to the Korean server whether to resolve the deep-rooted animosity between the two servers through a bloody war or forget it calmly.
* If the leader of the Korean server (kor-157) chooses to give up the counterattack, the quest will end.
[Information on the 1st Korean-Japanese War]
Special rules will be given for their exciting fight. Here are the details:
1) The counter attacker (Korean server) is given a 'big counterattack bonus'. The leader of the counterattack side can use the 'location check' of the hostile forces and the 'quick move' to their location.
2) Depending on each individual's will, they can support the opposite server and they are allowed to transfer to the opposite server.
3) All the processes of the quest will be broadcast live through the official channel.
The system didn't ask the Korean server for a vague counterattack. Instead, the system gave them a lot of merits to urge them to take revenge against the Japanese server.
"Location check?"
So-called "location check" and "quick movement" were special benefits intended for a surprise attack. 
-The location of the 'hostile forces' is displayed on the map.
* You can open 'Hyper Gate (fast movement)' by selecting one of the marked locations. (Remaining number of times: 1)
Soon, a map appeared before Sungwoo's eyes. It was a map of the Korean peninsula and the Japanese archipelago. On the map, only two spots were marked with red dots. The first one was Japan's "Tsushima" island.
'If it were Tsushima island, it would be the place where the Japanese army is located. But didn't they say Kyushu was their main base?' 
Sungwoo didn't know their specific situation, but it seemed clear that the outpost of the "Kyushu Unified Army" that attacked the Korean server was based in Tsushima.
'So, I can move there, according to the reward?'
It wasn't a bad idea for Sungwoo to raid it right now and wipe it out. Since their main unit was destroyed by the Korean server, they were probably defenseless. So, this was the perfect time to mount a large-scale counterattack against them.
However, the problem was the second red dot.
'Daejeon?'
The red dot was stamped on the Korean peninsula at Daejeon. At first, Sungwoo could not understand why the "hostile forces" of the Korean server were in Daejeon.
However, he soon came to know the reason when he thought about who could be the hostile players of the Korean server inside Korea.
'They must be the Evolution Society.'
They were ruled as "hostile forces" by the system and marked on the map. Daejon was their main base. After all, they left a trace they could never hide after making such bold terrorist attacks.
"Sungwoo, what should we do now? Should we invade Japan like when we attacked Taiwan?"
Sungwoo shook his head. He felt he could get rid of the Japanese server at any time.
However, if he could not smash the Evolution Society this time, he would never know where these cockroach-like guys would lay eggs, grow, and crawl out. So, he needed to track them down by all means. 
"Let me crack down on these bastards in Daejon first."
After all, it was time for him to annihilate these wicked players once and for all. 

***
The main base of the Evolution Society has been kept under wraps until now. Even though Sungwoo and the "Wide Area Surveillance Team" of the Liberation Guild searched for them everywhere, they could not gather any information.
But, for some reason, the system put red dots on the map, so their location was revealed.
'The important thing is that the Evolution Society guys don't know I know their location..'
In other words, Sungwoo could mount a perfect surprise attack. However, he needed to be very careful because they had very good intelligence. If they noticed something strange, there was a strong possibility that it would quickly escape like a loach.
So, Sungwoo mobilized all his forces to pretend they were searching for the Evolution Society. 
It was a deception tactic.
'If I want to launch a surprise attack, I can use the "quick movement" bonus, but I have to save it just in case in the future.'
He was supposed to attack Tsushima Island for the 2nd Korean-Japanese War right after getting rid of the Evolution Society guys, so he decided to save the one-time-only 'quick movement' for that purpose because there was no good way for him to cross the sea.
Besides, Daejeon was located close enough to Suwon, so he could attack it anytime he wanted.
"Now, let's all go home, everybody. We need to figure out how many are here, so, get aboard the helicopter!"
"I want to tell them how well we fought here. I can't wait!"
The players of the World Tree camp were preparing to return to their main base in Suwon.
When they came to Busan, they used an item called "Space Movement Stone", but unfortunately, there were none left. So, they borrowed four helicopters from the Hwarang Guild.
The players of the World Tree camp were eagerly preparing to return home in excitement.
"Jisu!
Sungwoo called her secretly. She knew why he called her, so she followed him cautiously.
'There may be somebody keeping an eye on us.'
The enemies could collect information with a skill specialized in espionage instead of simply monitoring them. Therefore, the two conversed secretly behind the helicopters.
"We will sneak into the main base of the Evolution Society after moving along the road leading to Suwon."
Even though he didn't explain much, she nodded as if she knew what he was talking about.
"Well, it reminds me of Bumgye Station where I fought them. I hope I won't see them again."
"Yeah, that's why we have to get rid of them tonight."
Sungwoo had no detailed operational plan. He just thought he and Jisu could move down to Daejon to get rid of them. That was enough.
In the afternoon when darkness began to fall, Sungwoo began returning to Suwon with the players of the World Tree camp.
Doo Doo Doo!
With Bone Wyvern escorting them, four helicopters took off.
Then, when they were moving from Boeun-gun area to Cheongju area, Sungwoo and Jisu slipped away from them using Zombie Birds and turned to Daejeon.
Their secret operation to infiltrate into the Evolutionary Society began.

It was just one of those ordinary college class sessions when all of a sudden, texts and quest cards started popping up in the air.
While everybody is flustered by the strange situation, all the lights go dark and the lecture room is engulfed in pitch darkness. Panicked, everybody is afraid of reaching out and taking the quest cards, but not the main character, Seong-woo: He instinctively realizes that he has to pick a card to survive, and he chooses to become a necromancer.
Soon after, a tutorial quest appears, and the entire school turns chaotic. Suddenly, goblins pop out everywhere and start slaughtering people. Survivors find it hard to adjust themselves to all the sudden changes, but Seong-woo overpowers one of the goblins by using his necromancy skill and starts to complete the quest given to him.
Seong-woo continues to grow his power and so does a number of his followers. He is surrounded by the forces of death that vow loyalty to him, as well as talented followers and trustful colleagues, but he is challenged by numerous villains in addition to a system that threatens to degenerate all of humanity.
In a world that is facing a change that it has never experienced before, a necromancer destroys everything with his committed forces!

Chapter 36. Any Room, Part III

7.
The Golden Horn Spider had eight golden legs and was ten meters long. With a huge body and head that fit such legs, it had never hidden itself. No, it couldn't hide itself.
 
The huge body was the second. The eight blue eyes on its head made the legs of its prey numb with fright hundreds of meters or even kilometers away. It didn't have to hide itself.
 
Unlike other monsters, the Golden Horn Spider did not have to work hard to hunt.
 
The Golden Horn Spider had only two things to do: to widen the area of its web when it was in a good mood and to punish those who dared to live in its own territory. In fact, so far, it had only done those two things. It had no experience doing anything else. Therefore, it was confused.
 
Rumbling!
The Golden Horn Spider could hear dimly the rolls of thunder from a long distance away. Even the thunderstorm came not from one direction, but all directions, dozens of rolls of thunder in sequence.
 
Cheee? This was a situation it had never experienced and never thought of before.
 
Cheee! The power of the rolls of thunder, however, was beyond imagination. Whenever a shot hit the ground, the ground turned upside down and soared like a fountain.
 
Cheeeeee! Dozens of thunderstorms arriving in a single breath left indelible scars on the body of the Golden Horn Spider. Two of its legs were ripped off, creating terrible scars on the huge body.
 
Cheee! Cheeeee! A painful cry burst out to the Golden Horn Spider.
 
But this was not the end.
 
Boom! Boom! Boom!  
It was a small noise compared to the preceding thunder, but still powerful little bolts of lightning began to shower down on the Golden Horn Spider.
 
Chee…! By that time, there was no longer a faint cry from the Golden Horn Spider.
 
Doo-woo-woong! Instead, a sad and heartrending sound was heard.
 
8.
The power of a 155mm shell transcended common sense. The sight of the earth rising up like a fountain at the moment of the bomb blasts was amazing that humans made such weapons to kill humans.
 
When hundreds of 60mm, 81mm, and 4.2-inch mortars began to fill the gaps between the spouting shells in a separate sequence from the 155mm towed artillery guns, the destructive power generated by the concentrated saturation would have crushed the giant mountain, Jirisan.
 
The figure of the Golden Horn Spider, who had received such an absurdly intensive bombardment, looked terrible.
 
Doo-woo-woong! Above all, the peal of the Bell of King Seongdeok, which was being run steadily, made the Golden Horn Spider vulnerable. It was the most fatal thing. Even with its natural armor, it could not hold on under the intensive bombardment, but it was shot naked.
 
Doo-woo-woong!
In the end, even when there was no further bombardment, the Golden Horn Spider was weak enough to shudder at the Bell of King Seongdeok.
Of the eight eyes, only two were fine, and only three of its eight legs were left.
 
However, the Golden Horn Spider had still survived after this absurd intensive bombardment. They were not just the shells, but it was a bombard made out of a Bronze Sword third-grade relic, being exposed to the Bell of King Seongdeok. It was a certain proof that this monster was far beyond the common sense of a human being.
 
Kim Tae-hoon stood in front of the Golden Horn Spider. He was holding three Swords on his back, carrying a bag, and looking at it with his black Eyes.
 
'This is the first time.'
 
At the same time, the past image of the monster with the blue eyes that he was now looking at, was passing by.
 
'When I face a monster that has become a rag…'
 
The first was the Gamecock. The first meeting with the Gamecock was the peak of his desperation. Kim had to fight it without preparing at all. 

Then it was the Freezer. He was not very pleased to see it. If there had been no Bell of King Seongdeok and without a missile usually mounted on a fighter, he would have had to step down, with hundreds of thousands of survivors still left in Daegu City.
 
To the two monsters that he had faced like that, Kim was an insignificant being.
As evidence, there was no vigilance or fear in the blue eyes of those who had looked at him. There was only the ferocity of a hungry beast in front of their prey.
 
'And even when I see this so scared.'
 
But now the blue eyes of the Golden Horn Spider were embarrassed, frightened, and afraid. That was the obvious evidence. At this moment, the Golden Horn Spider was game. Now it was time to finish the hunt. As always, it was time to stab the monster's heart and take the monster stone out of its heart. But Kim Tae-hoon waited for it.
 
Toot-toot! He waited for those who were coming to this place where the Fear of the Golden Horn Spider still remained, with the help of the power of all kinds of musical instruments, including the large flute heard from far away, and the instruments that became relics.
 
Trembling! He waited for the crowd shaking all over who wanted to come here, trembling in front of the fear that they could not control even though they were helped by the relics. In that manner, Kim waited for the comrades who willingly risked his or her life for this hunting.
 
"There, there!"
"Oh, my God..."
 
And when the comrades gathered, Kim finally finished the hunt.
 
Tsreung! The Sword of the Imperator in the sheath flew like a lightning bolt toward the heart of the already weak Golden Horn Spider.
 
Thunk! The Sword of the Imperator brought an end, and at the same time, the trembling of those who flocked around the Golden Horn Spider began to stop. Everyone felt the hunt was over, and they were free now.
 
"Whooooooooooooooooooo!" It was a freedom to make the biggest shout that could be used by those who had stopped shaking. "Whooooooooooooooooooo!"
 
Kim had confidence in the situation where everyone was shouting like thunder.
 
'There is no room now.'
 
There was no room left. So now Kim no longer hesitated.
 
'Tonight, I will attack Japan.'
 
9.
Yeosu Port.
It was a dark night, and the night sea of Yeosu was visible. However, unfortunately, there was no light that could have shown a beautiful sight.
 
There was a man instead. Colonel Lim Hyun Joon was looking at night sea of Yeosu. He still had a strong figure and a burning look.
 
Thud! And now there were two men.
 
"Here you are."
 
Kim had landed from the sky, and Colonel Lim immediately spoke to him, "What happened with the hunt?"
 
"The Armored Hunting Battalion has done well."
 
At the response, Colonel Lim smiled with satisfaction. "I'm glad to hear that they helped you."
 
The Armored Hunting Battalion was the Unit that Colonel Lim had created. He was the most confident with the Unit. Its value was recognized by Kim, not just anyone else. It was like getting the highest praise for Colonel Lim as a commander.
 
"The Armored Hunting Battalion may take a more active part in the future war."
 
"I suppose so. Special forces with the firepower of the tank will actually be the masters of the battlefield. Above all, if a person who has the Eyes of a Black Snake or the Hearing of a Bell-tailed Rat like you becomes a commander, the deeds of the Armored Hunting Battalion will be even more powerful."
 
"I think we need to increase the size of the Armored Hunting Battalion. In addition, we need training for mountainous terrain, for desert terrain, and for street fighting."
 
"I'll apply it to the training soon."
 
"This time, I think we need to organize the troops in detail. Based on the ability of the soldiers who handled the 4.2-inch mortar, the 4.2-inch mortar can be operated by two people, not a group of three. The 60mm mortar including artillery shells can be operated by an individual, if they are trained properly."
 
If the members of the Armored Hunting Battalion heard this, the contents of the conversation might have made them dizzy. Fortunately, the story ended there.
 
"Did you send them a warning note?"
 
"I don't know what's going to happen during the delivery, but I did. We sent five of the ninjas we captured, and one of them should arrive."
 
It was an order given to Colonel Lim before Kim went on hunting for the Golden Horn Spider: deliver the letter to Japan using the captured ninjas. The message was, of course, a warning note.
 
"But what was your intention in doing so?"
 
"I threw a stone, so they are going to react anyway. And there will be some kind of gap."
 
"That's great."
 
The reason for sending the warning note was to make a gap.
 
Colonel Lim admired Kim's move. No matter how ambitious, capable, and qualified Colonel Lim was, he could not have had more experience in war than Kim. Kim showed lessons that he wanted to buy, even if he had to pay a billion dollars.
 
Kim did not respond to Colonel Lim's admiration. Rather, he made his cold face colder.
 
'It's war now.' The dice had been thrown.
 
For Kim, the Korean Strait between Korea and Japan had become the Rubicon River. The difference was that Caesar crossed the Rubicon with his army instead of crossing it with a single body, while Kim crossed the Korean Strait as a single body. That was all.
 
"In thirty-six hours, send troops to Tsushima Island and take it over."
 
The result of Kim who would cross the Korean Strait and of Caesar who had crossed the Rubicon would be the same. Just as Caesar had made a new Roman history, Kim would rewrite Japanese history.
 
Colonel Lim read Kim's intention, and did not make any more admiring remarks. He breathed out a long sigh.
 
'Now it's a real war.
 
'War is a word of fate, for soldiers. Someone wants to avoid it, and someone wants it to come.'
 
Colonel Lim was the latter. He was an ambitious man, and he wanted a historic war to happen in his heart. Now the war he wanted was coming. It was not just a war.
 
'I'm not going to be at the center of this war.'
 
Korea's Conquest War of Japan!
It was a war that was hard to find even in the long history that had existed between the Korean Peninsula and the Japanese islands. So far, there has been no war in their history in which the nations of the Korean Peninsula had fought against Japan on the mainland of Japan. The target of the invasion was always the Korean Peninsula, and the battlefield was also on the Korean Peninsula.
 
Kim's war was inevitably a historic war in many ways.
 
"Hoo!" Colonel Lim, who was just realizing the fact, felt his heart shaking with all kinds of emotions.
 
Kim briefly told him, "Don't get emotional and don't get sentimental. All you can appreciate is those who haven't experienced war."
 
Kim finished the warning and immediately flew out to a fishing boat that had already sailed out into Yeosu Port.
 
Colonel Lim looked after it and rubbed his face, erasing the expression on his face.
'I almost made the same mistake as Lieutenant General Lee Hyuk.'
 
Kim was right.
 
'War is nothing but war. Evaluation of the war, or mourning or reverence of the war, emotion and appreciation, criticism and blame, are the responsibility of those who have not experienced it; for those who have experienced it, war is nothing more than war.'
 
The act of making an emotional face was not something a commander should do to lead a war and shed the blood of others. Colonel Lim removed his expression, straightened his right hand and put it to his temple. He waited that way until the fishing boat disappeared from his sight.
 
10.
Tsushima Island.
The island, which was called Tsushima Island in Japan, was the closest island to both Korea and Japan.
 
Therefore, it was a place for tourists and passenger ships, rather than tension, guns, or a warship at the island.
 
Although Korea and Japan were anxious because they could not take over each other politically and diplomatically, it was evident that they were in harmony on military matters.
 
On the other hand, the fact that the military had come into Tsushima Island was evidence that Japan was blatantly revealing its intentions to invade the Korean Peninsula.
 
"How long do we have to wait here?"
 
"How could I know that?"
 
And now there were warships, not a few soldiers, and Awakeners with marks on their hands.
 
"Someday the order will come."
 
The time they were waiting for was, of course, the time of the invasion. As soon as the order came down, everyone on Tsushima Island would immediately move for Busan. The moment they arrived in Busan, they would acquire Busan according to a set plan, and then, a powerful force from the Japanese Archipelago, settled in Busan, would take over the Korean Peninsula.
 
It was their role to be the advance guards of the war. In that situation, the days of doing nothing to those on Tsushima Island with all their resolutions were not free, and they were feeling itchy all over.
 
"Goddammit, if they're going to do this, just leave us on the mainland! There is no water to drink, and it's hard to take a shower here! What a hard time!"
 
"My words too!"
 
There was nothing to do but complain.
 
It was a minor disturbance that silenced their complaints.
 
The whine of sirens! The noise of the warning began to spread rapidly in the dark of the Tsushima Island.
 
"What's going on?"
 
"A boat is coming here!"
 
The main culprit of the disturbance was a boat heading for Tsushima Island. The incoming boat made a faint sound and it did not show any threat to them.
 
But those who looked at the boat didn't relax at all.
 
"Who's on the boat?"
 
"I can't see anyone."
 
Nothing was on the fishing boat. Then, the answer was one of two: it was a ghost boat, or some people were hiding themselves inside the boat.
Either way was nothing good for Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force nestled on Tsushima Island. They didn't hesitate.
 
"Sink the boat!" Major Szuki ordered immediately, and soon the machine guns on the tower on Tsushima Island fired, quickly turning the fishing boat into a hole-ridden wreck. The fishing boat sank with bubbles.
 
After that, the people with telescopes looked at the area the fishing boat had been.
 
Situation Terminated. But at this moment, no one felt like the situation was over.
 
"Is it over?"
 
"It's weird."
 
"I feel weird, too. I don't think it's over."
 
It was because of the feelings of the Japanese.
 
'Japan is a country full of earthquakes which can occur daily. If such happened in another country, it might be a national disaster. It is natural that people living in such a country have the ability to sense an inevitable disaster.'
 
At this moment, they could feel it. An overwhelming disaster that they could not dare to face was coming to Tsushima Island!

The world has changed and so have the people.

Editor's views  - from Ekdud

The First Hunter is a short Korean, action-fantasy novel situated in a post-apocalyptic world. Monsters start appearing out of nowhere and people are unlocking strange powers. Those who unlock such powers are called ‘Hunters’, ones with the strength to kill the monsters. To fight and survive, that is their goal. Society crumbles and the world burns.

A very fun novel that dives into the plot almost instantly. The novel is interesting in a way that it depicts a lot of human nature and what people would do in a situation such as this is quite an accurate manner. The character development is also very good as you get to learn about the characters, their backgrounds, and their stories. All in all, this is another novel I’d recommend to a lot of readers who are interested in reading fantasy and gaming novels.

**A licensed novel from Munpia**

Several Korean scientists living in Germany had asked for migration to Kazakhstan.
Seeing the recent dispute with China, they wanted to offer a small helping hand to Kazakhstan.
Originally, they were planning to go back to Korea but were hesitant to return home due to cultural differences between Korean and Germany and decided to move to Kazakhstan.
The reason why they decided to come to Kazakhstan was because they saw hope when Youngho, a Korean, joined Central Asia and expanded his reach to the Caucasus.
Another reason was that the relationship between Kazakhstan and Germany was stronger than other countries.
They believed that if so many ethnicities lived well together without inconvenience in Kazakhstan, they would also adapt to Kazakhstan with ease.
The scientists who were willing to settle down in Kazakhstan were distinguished in various fields, including new materials, physics, and chemistry.
When Korean residents in Germany suddenly showed interest in coming to Kazakhstan, Youngho asked the Intelligence Department to investigate them.
Although they would be of great help, he did not understand why they were making such a choice to live in hardships. This was because Kazakhstan was not such an attractive place for capable scientists who had been living well in an advanced country like Germany.


"Was Kazakhstan such a charming place?"

"No brainer. Most immigrants think it has a huge potential to grow big. That's how those Korean German scientists feel, too. They said that they want to focus their capabilities on developing Kazakhstan, which is in its infancy."


Park Jong-il answered after finding out the purpose of the Korean German scientists.


"You said they were descendants of those who went to Germany as workers, right?"

"Listening to them, they suffered a lot in childhood. They said that they sent small salaries to Korea and covered their school expenses with the money they worked part-time during weekends and holidays."


Their parents were miners and nurses, who were considered lower class in Germany. Because of their parents' hard work in a foreign land Germany which was far away from home, they were able to study and make it as scientists.


"I heard that most of the first generation parents in Germany went back to Korea."

"Yes, they went back home, but I think the second generation Koreans lived in Germany because it was their hometown."


The scientists who wanted to come to Kazakhstan were children of workers who went to Germany as miners or nurses in the 1960s.
Miners and nurses who left for Germany in the early 1960s were in the middle class or class of literacy at that time.
Even though anyone who had never crossed the school gate could dig inside a mine, anyone who was to go to Germany was demanded a minimum degree of education on the condition.
The reason was that the Korean government wanted to present Korea as a highly educated country so as not to undermine its national prestige.
It was like the last pride of an underdeveloped country.
As a result, intelligent college graduates were registered to work as miners, and those who went out as workers borrowed money and wore suits and ties to get on the plane.
Due to the economic conditions of Korea at that time, it was impossible for people to be educated in a secondary school if they were not rich or if they were very smart.
It was almost a luxury for ordinary people who were busy filling their stomachs after the Korean War to send their children to school.
Likewise, most nurses had well-off parents.
At that time, women were considered overeducated even after they graduated from elementary school.
Nurses with their own expertise in Korea which was underdeveloped at the time chose to go to Germany rather than stay, and going to Germany was like being chosen because not everyone was able to go abroad.
Also, Korea's poor economic situation, in which people could not make money despite having expertise, drove them to Germany.
If they could sacrifice themselves for the livelihood of their families, they were willing to work abroad.


"It's nice to hear that people who have established their names in their field of career want to come, but I'm not sure if they'll get used to this place."

"We have to treat them properly. Either give them a teaching position at the Royal College or a research position at a research institute."

"I'll have to think of ways to apply their knowledge. It's a waste of time to leave world-class scholars in schools and research institutes..."

"There aren't many students who are willing to learn from them, so that's a problem, too. The natural sciences aren't very popular."


As Kazakhstan was a developing country, people had a tendency to look down on basic science that did not seem to help real life directly. The people of Kazakhstan liked practicality, and even students majoring in related studies did not like to learn basic science in-depth as with only learning basic science could not keep up with advanced countries. Besides, it was the time of war against China, so who would care about basic science? It was a shame since such knowledge was the shortcut to becoming an advanced country.


***


The Arirang royal territory was busy preparing for the immigration of the Korean scientists from Germany for a while.
The importance of the basic science field had been highlighted, and the heads of government research institutes had visited the royal territory for a while.
Although it was chaotic in and out of the country, the atmosphere of the Federal Kingdom of Kazakhstan was still dynamic.
Conflicts with China never caused abnormalities in the function of the country or made everyday life uncomfortable.
There was also a sense of security that it would not lead to an all-out war, and neither the royal family nor the government made much fuss.
The country was able to deal with it as usual because it was always prepared for it.
Meanwhile, armed independence struggles were still taking place in Xinjiang Uyghur and Tibet, gunfire had stopped at the border of Kazakhstan and the Indian Ocean.
The National People's Congress of the Communist Party of China was still going on, so Kazakhstan was still paying close attention to its results.
The leaders of Kazakhstan were mapping out exit strategies in case newly elected Central Military Commission members were moderates, not close aides of the current Chinese regime.

Military experts said that China's bid to target Central Asia would result in enormous sacrifices, as Kazakhstan would be impregnable if it blocked only a few border areas.
That meant an all-out war was not easy.
Even if troops climbed the Tian Shan Mountains breathlessly and crossed the border, all there would be waiting for them was death.
Kazakhstan's national defense was strong and solid.
Kazakhstan's military, which was thought to be weak, turned out to be a well-sharpened sword, had shocked the Chinese military.
Not only that, but the Chinese government was also struggling in Xinjiang Uyghur and Tibet.
Although it was known that the number of Chinese soldiers and armed police deployed in Xinjiang Uyghur and Tibet would be higher than that of locals, they were still not preventing terrorism properly.
For China, a more urgent task than fighting against Kazakhstan was to prevent the independence struggles.
At this rate, Tibetan and Uyghur independence would take place with ease.
The continuation of war against Kazakhstan was unlikely for China.


In the conference room of Kazakhstan's government complex, there was a war of words between the pro-war party, which wanted to continue this atmosphere, and the pro-peace party, which wanted to use China's internal situation to find an exit at an appropriate time.
Youngho, who was watching the Cabinet members' opinions without saying anything, raised his hand to calm the crowd.


"I've heard your opinions well. I don't want to continue the war because I like war. We launched excessive attacks on the sea to make China never look down on it again. So how did the result come out? I think you've seen China flinch."


It was an event that gave a lesson that attack was the best defense.
Ministers were all silent because they were so well aware of that.


"Your Royal Highness. If the war situation is favorable, would you cross the border?"


It was a question from Cabinet members belonging to the pro-peace party.


"I don't want to do anything that we can't handle. Beyond our borders are Uyghurs and Tibetans. What can we expect from them? I'd like to help them achieve their independence, but our military will not cross the Tian Shan Mountains and the Pamir Plateau."


If the regular forces crossed over and fought with the Chinese forces, it would imply an all-out war. Also, Youngho had no intention of taking over Xinjiang Uyghur and Tibet's territory. He only needed them to stand alone and strong as a buffer zone between China and Kazakhstan.

When it got quiet in the room, Youngho poured out his heart to Cabinet ministers without filtration.
Emphasizing that it was time to go back to the original intentions, he persuaded them to keep pushing ahead again.
He stressed that Kazakhstan was able to win consecutive victories not because it was strong, but because of China's pride only, and that Kazakhstan would be severely damaged if the fighting continued in the future.
The reality was that China could fully digest a long-term war, with its size of troops and capital, but Kazakhstan could not.
Now was the time to build up strength.
In order to do so, the foundation should be strong and the whole society should be developed evenly.
Only then could Kazakhstan overcome China.
It must increase the population, nurture talent, and foster the defense industry.
He ended his speech by saying that now was an opportunity to narrow the gap with China when it is shaken by the trade war against the U.S.
At the end of Youngho's talk, the ministers responded with a standing ovation.
This was because they agreed to the criticism and order made by the Duke.


Kazakhstan gained a lot from the recent conflict.
It served as an occasion for the people to unite as one, which was soon expressed in pride for the nation.
That was the patriotism to take the lead in protecting the country.
Patriotism soon emerged as a social order, and social order soon led to a mature civic consciousness.
Mature civic awareness had also affected the entire industry.
People recognized that working their best in their field was loving their country.
It was shown by productivity improvement and product quality.
Now, if it was made in Kazakhstan, it was recognized as a cheap and sturdy product by both Central Asian and Caucasian countries. The only problem was poor designs that were not aesthetic. However, if there was no inconvenience in daily life, such a level of flaw could be overcome.
Since when had Central Asia been such a rich place?
It was a place where people would still have to live a nomadic life if there were no underground resources.
In a way, it was no exaggeration to say that all this was due to China.
People could stay alert because there was a strong enemy around.
In order to continue such an atmosphere, reminding people of where Kazakhstan was located geopolitically was necessary.
They had won only a few battles because if they got carried away with such pride, the country would be eaten by China someday.
The only way out of China's direct threat was the independence of Uyghurs and Tibetans.

There were 7 million Koreans living abroad, but that wasn't even the right term to describe them. There was no reason to still address people who took on other citizenships as Korean. The priority of the embassies abroad was to protect those with Korean citizenship. But their main force went into Korean immigrant communities and communication with overseas Koreans.
But why was that? Why did they prefer Korean immigrants with other citizenships over those with Korean citizenship? They were technically no longer Korean. But did they still step up to do things that helped Korea? Perhaps. But objectively, those who chose to immigrate to another country usually did it for their own personal gain than to help their country.
The patriotism of missing one's home country and the patriotism of caring for one's country were two different things. For that reason, rather than 7 million Koreans abroad, it should be 1 million Korean nationals abroad. Citizens of other countries belonged to those countries.

Bae Sang Chul

His grandfather worked as a Korean war veteran who went over to America right before the ceasefire. Bae Sang Chul lived with his grandfather since he was little and heard all sorts of stories. He imagined the tragic reality of Korea, which fell apart due to a horrible war.
During the 70s, he endured getting discriminated against as a Yellow and being terribly poor, but would living as a Korean have been any better? Bae Sang Chul's childhood wasn't a happy one. That might have been why he always dreamt of going to Korea one day.
In the 90s, South Korea's military regime backed off and a civilian government came in. Despite that fact, the reason why Bae Sang Chul decided to enter the Naval Academy was to benefit off of his grandfather's connections. Although Korea put on a great performance of switching to a civilian government, Korea was still full of corruption. Just because the president changed didn't mean a country could change overnight.
Although he dedicated 11 years to the Korean military, he was still treated like an alien. That was because Bae Sang Chul, who abandoned his great American citizenship and came to Korea, was a great topic of the news and advertisements. He was simply put up for display. After that, he abandoned all hope.
Bae Sang Chul, who entered the mercenary world at a similar time as Ahn Soo Ho and Seo Jung Wook, wasn't good at fighting. But he did know how it worked between an employer and a mercenary. Bae Sang Chul then realized what it was that he really wanted to do.

"Andy."
"Jim."

As soon as the white man with white hair saw Bae Sang Chul in a prison uniform, he sighed.

"Are you crazy?"
"No, Jim. I'm completely fine."

The law firm representing the front line was a global law firm that had countless PMC clients all over the world. Since mercenaries committed violent acts for a living, many lawsuits naturally followed. To the eyes of the civilian groups that were against war, they just looked like money-chasing and evil lawyers. However, everything always had two sides.
Bae Sang Chul, or more like Anderson, felt his forehead throb. If it wasn't for Jeon Taek Joong's special request, they wouldn't have agreed to represent someone who was labeled as a terrorist by an entire nation. No matter how much they liked money, these lawyers were not terrorists. They would have rather represented child molesters. 

"I wouldn't have come to this small Asian country if it wasn't for the chairman's request."
"Wow! You haven't changed one bit!"
"You smelly monkeys!"
"Please don't use such vulgar language in the courtroom, Jim. The judge could decide to give me the death penalty right then and there."
"I don't know Korean. A Korean lawyer will be there, anyway."
"The judges and prosecutors can speak English these days."

Bae Sang Chul laughed bitterly. Jimmy was a skilled lawyer, but as a human being, he was questionable. He was a scumbag lawyer who was racist, sexist, and violent toward children.

"Anyway, I can't believe you were a commie… I'm disappointed."
"Who says that these days? Call me a revolutionist."
"Tsk! I should have framed Cuba for carpet bombing. I knew I should have killed Castro."
"What a fascist!"
"Look here. Both fascism and Nazism are based on socialism, Andy. Did you call me a commie? If you keep doing this, I could just drop everything and go home."
"Sorry."

Bae Sang Chul backed down. He might have been an old white man with harsh words, but he had skills that were trustworthy.

"How much did you get paid, Jim?"
"Hm. That's a secret… but it was 100."
"Whoa! I don't have that kind of money."
"You cheap ass! Who said I was going to charge you? The chairman will pay for it."
"The chairman?"

Jimmy covered his mouth and whispered,

"There are rumors that there's someone even bigger behind you, Andy. Who are you working for?"
"Watch your mouth, Jim. There are many ears listening."

Bae Sang Chul put on a straight face.

"What about the confidentiality clause between lawyers and their clients?"
"Someone could be listening as we speak."
"So this is how timid Asian people can be."
"If you look down on us, you'll get the hut."

Jimmy laughed and stuck up his middle finger.

"Come to think of it, Asian women were the easiest to bang. There might be nothing to grab, but they're nice and tight."
"You're still getting accused of sexual harassment, aren't you, Jim?"
"Those damn bitches! Why do they talk so much? Back in my day…"
"Okay, Magic Hands. I've already heard that story a thousand times."
"I'm just going to leave."
"Sorry."

Bae Sang Chul apologized again. Jimmy put his legs on the table. He wasn't in a normal reception room posture.

"Okay, now tell me. Are you looking for an acquittal?"
"No."
"Then what do you want?"
"I just want you to drag it on as long as possible."
"You want to become a star, huh?"

Bridal Mask had the attention of all the media in the nation. As of right now, the rescue operation in Nigeria got more attention, since it was revealed that the cruel terrorist was a former mercenary and special agent of the Korean military, people couldn't look away from that either.

"Got it."

Jimmy put down his legs from the table and got up.

"Do you have any advice for me as my lawyer?"

Jimmy gave him a short answer.

"Just keep your mouth shut."
"Pardon?"

That wasn't a normal advice to give.

"What about some professional advice?"

Jimmy was leaving through the door when he said one last thing.

"Just keep your mouth shut."
******

Just because Ahn Soo Ho announced that he would renounce his citizenship didn't mean he was suddenly not Korean anymore. And for those who possessed a lot, renouncing their citizenship was a complicated process.

"This is why I pay you so much for your lawyer fee."
"You shouldn't say such a thing with a straight face, Soo Ho."

After leaving the headache to James and Han Kyung Il, Ahn Soo Ho was in a helicopter flying through a desert headed north. He received an invitation. And he wasn't going alone. Beside him was Angelica who no longer looked like Ahn Da Sol and Hector who came back to life after almost dying.

"What about your daughter?"
"I'm sure she's fine."
"Don't you have any paternal love?"
"She's lived fine without me until now, so I'm sure she'll be okay."
"What a cold father."

He didn't talk like it, but he was a father who even mobilized an assassination group to protect his daughter.

"What happened to Eduard?"
"Dakoma and Eduard were best friends, Soo Ho."
"Oh."

Ahn Soo Ho let out an awkward groan. The New York terrorist was an American, but the one who put it in action was Jacob Smith, A.K.A. Dakoma.

"They were thinking of killing all the hostages."
"That's why they got in conflict with the top management."
"Looks like there's now an opportunity to mobilize Allayas."
"It's not just disabled people they accept as members."

The intelligence tasks of today analyzed, categorized, and regulated people, but humans were an organism that couldn't be categorized. People always said they knew others well, but that was never true.

"Is it out of wanting revenge?"
"Maybe it's a simple but intense motive. It's a pure emotion that cold people like us can't understand."
"What are you talking about? I cherish my men, old man."
"Are you talking about how you played house in America?"
"Playing house…? Logan, what do you think?"
"If the kids hear that, they'll get mad."

Logan smirked from the side.

"What about you?"
"I'm not a kid."
"Wow, you've grown up."

Hector snickered.
The helicopter landed in the middle of the Sahara desert. At the few oasis points of the Sahara were the strongest tribes.  Of course, the ranking of tribes could always flip. Back in the day, tribes with the biggest numbers were the strongest, while these days, the ones with good sponsors were at the top. It wasn't just celebrities that needed sponsors.
The wind storm stopped with the propellers.
The people greeted Ahn Soo Ho and his team with a smile.

"Soo Ho."

Issac and J-Law faced him together as if they had never fought. The crazy religious lunatic, Michel stood in the distance. His party was accompanied to huge barracks.

"Okay, let's end it quickly, my friends. If not, we'll end up having to divorce before we even get married."

Once they learned their God's real name, they no longer had an interest in mankind. To those who lived 3000 to 4000 years, human history was nothing more than a game of house.

"Starting today, all of our external activities are prohibited, Soo Ho."
"Our?"
"All the angels below me."
"Do you call people with supernatural powers, angels? Come to think of it, your name is Angelica."

Ahn Soo Ho looked back at Ahn Da Sol. She was looking at her fingernails as if she had no interest and then shrugged in response to Ahn Soo Ho.

"I was against it."
"Who was it? Was it Michel's doing?"

Even the lunatic that called himself an archangel shrugged.

"The dumb humans were always our feed."
"I don't know. We haven't been able to use much power after the modern era."
"That's…"

When Michel trailed off, J-Law coughed.

"Ahem!"
"Someone stupid made a big mistake."
"I have no interest in your situation. What do you mean all external activities are prohibited?"
"It's how it sounds. The immortal reputation that we've acquired…"
"Oh. So you're saying you're going to retire."

Ahn Soo Ho cut him off.

"Why do you keep dragging it on? Let's just make it quick and easy. So what would happen if you disappeared?"
"Chaos would ensue."
"In more detail."
"Hm, first of all, half of this world's relief groups and funds would close down. Then…"
"A war would break out."
"Yeah."

It wasn't common for conspirers to blatantly wring people dry. The relief fund that the assassination group, Angola participated in, was equivalent to that of the UN, and there were many more funds that came from United Industries.

"What else?"
"The angels that were controlled by London will find freedom. And if that happens…"
"A war would break out."
"Yeah."
"What else?"
"United Industries would split up. If the anti-trust that we've been maintaining collapse, the companies will…"
"Go into war."
"Yeah."
"So war will break out no matter what."
"We wanted mankind to exist for a long time."
"Huh? What? Then that makes me sound like the bad one."

In response to Ahn Soo Ho's remark, Issac, J-Law, and Michel all shrugged their shoulders. They had no interest in mankind, their life, or their history.

'It should have always been this way.'

It was time to release the human instinct that had been suppressed under a strong power. It was irresponsible, but that was none of his business. But that didn't mean there was going to be a nuclear war the next day. If small efforts to protect humanism disappeared, chaos was certainly going to ensue.

'I'm sure it'll work out!'

Look through the eyes of a soldier during the famed "Forgotten war" of the Korean peninsula in this short action story.


In a show of strength against China's claims in the South China Sea, the U. S. Navy sent two aircraft carrier groups on training drills in the western Pacific Ocean. The fleet included the carriers John C. Stennis and Ronald Reagan which sailed close together in the Philippine Sea. This deployment was part of air defense and sea surveillance operations involving 12,000 sailors, 140 aircraft, and six smaller warships.
The military cargo plane carrying Jake and a group of officers arrived in Seoul, South Korea. Their mandate was to visit the Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) north of the city to get first-hand knowledge of the situation on the ground. The DMZ came into being at the end of the Korean War to serve as a buffer zone between North and South Korea. It is a strip of land that runs across the Korean Peninsula, roughly following the northern 38th parallel.
Vaughn arrived in time to join the group as they got into Humvees and proceeded to the site about 50 miles north of the city. They soon reached the most militarized border in the world.
After South Korea had shut down a joint factory park in North Korea, all activity ceased. This facility had been used by North Korea to fund its nuclear and missile programs. When the venture closed, North Korea responded by deporting South Korean citizens, seizing South Korean assets and vowing to militarize the park. South Korea, in turn, cut off power and water supplies to the industrial park.
North Korea then restarted nuclear tests and long-range rocket launches. This caused the United States to deploy Patriot missile batteries in South Korea and added an even more sophisticated U.S. missile defense system in a move that worried China and Russia. This was called Terminal High-Altitude Area Defense, or THAAD, one of the most advanced missile defense systems in the world.
China's quickly made its displeasure known, while Russia also expressed worries about the deployment. North Korea warned of a nuclear war in the region and threatened to bolster its armed forces if the U. S. deployed THAAD. U. S. officials kept saying the THAAD deployment was designed to protect South Korea from North Korean threats and that it wasn't targeting China or anyone else. The Chinese didn't buy it but decided not to make more waves for the moment. They needed to tend to their immediate problem. Having been North Korea's protector on the international stage for generations, China was now reluctant to defend the Kim family dynasty — especially in regard to its continued expansion of a nuclear weapons program that brought about international sanctions.
Beijing even went along with United Nations sanctions related to the North Korean nuclear program, causing a severe backlash from North Korean leaders in Pyongyang. They stated that China's decision to participate in the UN's sanctions was evidence its much larger neighbor was worried its dominant status in Northeast Asia would be challenged.
North Korea's propaganda further indulged in a flurry of provocative statements stating that the sanctions would not stop the North Korean government from its true path, which benefited from the superior leadership of their revered supreme commander Kim Jong-un.
To make things worse, the North Korean government publicly announced that "All Party members and workers must join in soundly crushing China's pressuring schemes with the force of a nuclear storm for its betrayal of socialism."
Jake could not resist an observation.
"It looks like Kim, the eternal supplicant, is now threatening to bite the hand that feeds him. This does not bode well. The guy is out of his mind."
***
In Seoul, Vaughn met with one of his North Korean contacts, a man called Park Tan-Gyong, a star cello player in the State Symphony Orchestra of DPRK and one of the few people in North Korea that were allowed to travel overseas to play concerts. Having performed together on several occasions, their acquaintance dated back years.
Park was a covert opponent of the Kim regime. The only reason why he still lived and played music on behalf of North Korea was that the government required the families of artists performing aboard to remain in the country. Any real or perceived transgression would provoke reprisals on those left behind.
Jake joined Vaughn at the restaurant where the meeting took place. After the customary greetings and reminiscences, Vaughn asked the musician whether anyone outside the top government circles knew anything about the missing nuclear bombs. Park was shocked. To his knowledge, no one had any inkling of anything of the sort having happened. He then shared what he knew about the ruling class in North Korea. Basically, all the government officials and the top military were beholden to the Kim family, who awarded privileges not available to the ordinary citizens. He did say, however, that Kim terrorized everyone around him.
To cement his tenure, he engaged in torture and executions of those that displeased him. Sometimes, it was not enough to execute someone — the whole family would be killed as well. It was a reign of terror similar to Stalin's Russia.
Vaughn asked pointed questions about whom in the government would be willing to discuss the matter of the missing weapons, but Park failed to identify anyone able to challenge the Kim regime. All he knew was that something happened to cause the army to mobilize at the border. The atmosphere was tense, and many people feared war was in the offing.
Vaughn tried to find out if there was any way for him to talk with Kim. Park laughed. "The dictator surrounds himself with guards and acolytes that defer to him at every turn."
Jake saw the conversation was going nowhere and got to the point.
"Park, from what I hear, the only solution to the problem is to assassinate Kim. Is there anyone close to him with the guts to blow his brains out?"
Park was taken aback but did not laugh off Jake's comment.
"Anyone attempting to do so should be prepared to commit suicide. I don't see anyone in the regime willing to do that. To be honest, I would try to kill Kim myself if I didn't have a family. The entire dynasty needs to be extirpated if North Korea ever has a chance to join the family of nations. It's a personal fiefdom with starving people and a vast army. The entire country has been indoctrinated for two generations. They are convinced the West represents the ultimate evil. To reinforce that belief, people are constantly reminded of the terrible bombings that America subjected them to during the Korean War in the 50's. They don't know much about the outside world and in their minds, they are still at war."
"That's true," Jake conceded. "Since then, we had an armistice, not formal peace."
Vaughn and Jake said their goodbyes to the Korean, promising to stay in touch.
***
Jake and Vaughn boarded a military helicopter to the aircraft carrier Ronald Reagan to update the Admiral and his officers. Then Jake called General Brooks in Tampa and Paul Saunders at the CIA. When he returned to the ship's command center, the officers were in full alert mode.
"What's going on, Admiral?" Jake asked.
"If what you said is correct, all hell is going to break loose. North Korea shows sign of mobilizing. I don't buy for a minute their claim that their nukes were stolen. At this moment, they are probably preparing to move against South Korea. As soon as that happens, China will go on alert, as will most of the Asian countries in the region, including Japan. I don't want to know what NATO is going to do with two nukes practically on their doorstep. We are standing by for instructions by the Pentagon."
Jake had just received a text message from Tess, saying that Yasmin was on her way to Syria. "Admiral, I have one agent on the ground in Syria. I am sending additional help. I might need to go there myself."
"Of course, if you feel it's necessary, but I would prefer you stay here. I could use you to help us evaluate things."
"I need to do a few things, Admiral. I will keep you posted."

Jake, a brilliant CIA operative and Amir, a wealthy, sophisticated but dissolute Iraqi general who initially captures Tess during a battle and becomes obsessed with her. Tess escapes but must fulfill a promise that involves taking something from Amir. Tess and Jake attempt to go after him in and the action progresses from Istanbul to Paris and London. Amir persuades Tess to spend time with him in France and England in exchange for what she is seeking. Here she meets Fadime, his alluring and decadent sister. In the end, Amir deceives Tess. She returns to Iraq, flying dangerous missions and rescuing wounded soldiers. An unforeseen event changes everything.


It's been 19 years since World War 3 began. Many countries have fallen and many others have risen.
In the year 2145, North Korea declared war on China, Russia, and The United States, by sending nuclear bombs to major capitals and landmarks. Millions of innocent people died. Unfortunately, as years have gone on Japan, and South Korea have become apart of the North Korean Empire. The North Korean Empire has alliances with Mongolia, Vietnam, Syria, India, Venezuela, Ukraine, and Iran.
As the years went on Russia, and America came together to create a weapon capable of ending the war quickly. This project was called 'Project Dolls Head'. The project involved 100 orphaned infants and toddlers who were trained to become soldiers, but this project took a dark turn. 3 years after the project began Russia became impatient and started 'Project Military Dolls' which was a human experiment that designed inhuman children to fight in the war. The project was a success, but only in 8 kids.
All 8 kids were assigned a post on the front lines and were apart of the Alpha-1 squadron, but not all of them would see the end of the war.

After 19 years of the war against the world has finally been resolved. Unfortunately, for 6 teenagers they don't have a home to go back to.
When you are created to end a war, then without war what are you?
