‘Ho-‘
Biyeon let out a s at the ceiling with her eyes squinted Perhaps that ‘guy’ will be behind her on her right side It’s quite a sticky situation She had gone to sleep wearing her uniform, so whenever she moved the sweat and humidity would make her feel really uncomfortable It also seee clothes, but hoas she supposed to go about it?
Biyeon was currently in a corner of the pit, and rolled out of where she had been sleeping She was so tired and unwilling to do anything yesterday, and before she could really do anything she just fell asleep Now, having woken up, she came to her senses, and felt embarrassed
“Sir, have you woken up?” Biyeon asked in a whisper
“…”
Biyeon slightly turned her neck His sleeping bag was already empty [TN: ROFL]
‘Ah-‘
After roughly cleaning up her sleep space and quickly fixing up her hair and hiding it under her hat, she burst through the elastic and went outside
The outside was already bright A savory s reone out since the sun had coshot like stick on either side, hanging fro war a look inside, it looked like so With the rice and soup powder that was brought, some jerky was added and boiled
Biyeon nodded Rice porridge is the ideal dish to eat if one was to conserve rice until the very end…
He took thedoards [TN: There are some words I did not translate and had therefore oe of these words They are: “러닝 하나만을”],It was located next to a big tree under a nest [TN: It says nest, but not sure if it’s an idio closer, it looked like this tier
Biyeon gazed at the figure of San working While working he looked very soldier-like Every tile Sweat had started to bead up on his skin, and you could see the sweat start to ball up and fall onto the floor in drips
Biyeon’s chest deflated [TN: So sorry for this terrible word choice The author writes 비연은 가슴을 쓸어 내렸다 which means “Biyeon’s swept and lowered her chest I think it’s an idiom] She felt odd Sorateful for– grateful that his presence brushed away the solitude that she e land
“Sorry [TN: She says this in a very respectful way] I had slept in”
Biyeon first greeted with a bow [TN: Doesn’t actually say ‘with a bow’ but it does say 인사 which is the terenerally as a foruessed it, it’s a bow]
“Mhreeted back while wiping off his sweat
“Are you digging around the pit again, sir?”
“Mh, I felt that the pit was too sht that I had built it with too worrisome of a mindset, and that I had built it in a cooing to have to stay here for a few days, so I figured I o and wash up then coht?”
“Yes sir”
The two of them had an intimate breakfast
Even though it was only breakfast, it was plentiful Aside froular foodstuffs, San suddenly placed the fruit he had picked yesterday onto the table, and it sat there boldly
“Lieutenant Kim, do you usually eat breakfast?”
“When I was a civilian I would regularly eat breakfast, but ever since I enlisted, I’ve tried tobreakfast”
“That’s good… when in the field, even if you don’t want to, you must always try to maintain a healthy diet Do you knohy?”
“I know that it’s because the vigorous training drains a lot of calories”
“No that’s not it…”
“Eh?”
“It’s because when you’re outside, the nuth of a disease ht quickly fall off, but out in the field, it’s death Disease will get you as soon as some sort of balance is broken I’ve had alularly exercise get taken by disease

“You have to eat your food reliably Don’t concern yourself with stupid things like diet and…”
“Yes sir…”
“But… Do you feel anything strange, did perhaps soe about your body?”
“Why would e?”
“Do you want to see it in the flesh?”
San picked up a standard issue spoon and held it in his right hand It was a thick spoon rasped the spoon handle in his hand, then slowly pushed one end of the spoon doith his thumb
“Whoa! That’s incredible sir”
Biyeon exclaisten spoon in San’s hand was bent at a near ninety degree angle in the direction he was pushi+ng with his thumb
“The point of contention is that reat Yesterday while I orking, I sihter and weaker than the ones I was faht away, but after looking at what I could do to the equipment that I am familiar with, it seems that’s not the case?”

“Is that all?”
“Actually, I also feel like hter, and the boots I wore also felt light and easy to walk around in– I’ve never felt that it was so light before And strangely enough, I also feel like my memory has improved as well…”
