After the trash, no... the snow that piled up from dawn had been cleaned up, the atmosphere surrounding the outpost had fallen down to the depths of the abyss.

The corporals thought that they would only be asked to clear up the snow but now they were being told that they had to do more work in the near future. Once they heard that they would be reinforcing and strengthening the guard posts, their expressions distorted one by one. And since the expressions of the corporals were gloomy, the atmosphere surrounding the privates and the private first classes had also started to change for the worse.

Sergeant Sean even added to the tense atmosphere as he turned the dormitory in a mess. As soon as the soldiers returned to their dormitories, Sergeant Sean went hysterical. He looked like he turned into a rabid dog. The privates avoided him and stood to the sides in cold sweat while the private first classes tactfully cleaned up the things that Sean threw out.

Normally, the corporals would turn obedient as they tried to stop him, calm him or praise him to the heavens. But no corporals could be seen this time. They went somewhere to avoid Sean chewing them hard.

'Are you going to leave Sergeant Sean's line? He's clearly being targeted by the outpost leader.'

Talks like that began to spread from the morning. If Sergeant Sean did not have any backing, he would have already been beaten and bullied by the rest of the platoon.

"Ah. I think the food tastes extremely good today?"

"I think so too?"

Iron was currently eating with the vice outpost leader. Today, both of them felt like the meals that they were eating were extremely fragrant.

The soldiers came in the mess hall late. Each and every single one of them looked like they ate shit as they sat down to eat their food.

"Sergeant Sean?"

"He said he did not have an appetite."

Iron glared at the corporal when he heard his words.

"He's doing whatever he wants and not eating without my permission?"

"That... That's..."

"Bring the bastard over."

The corporal immediately realized that Sergeant Sean was screwed when he saw Iron's glare. He immediately ran to fetch Sean else he became the target of the outpost leader. After a while, Sergeant Sean came into the mess hall with trepidation clear on his face.

"Sergeant Sean."

"Sergeant, Sean Wicks!"

"You're tired?"
