The sea is still so terrifying at night.

Henry withdrew his gaze from the deep, dim sea, closed his eyes, and grasped the cold battlements in front of him with both hands, only to regain his breath after a while. But even so, when he opened his eyes and looked down, he still felt an irrepressible feeling of dizziness.

"Hey, rookie, hurry up and go back!"

A rough voice sounded in the ears of the young soldier, and Henry, who was frightened, shuddered, and hurriedly retreated from the front of the wall, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and then turned his head to look at the man who was striding towards him not far away. It was a bearded veteran with a bear-like build.

"Really, rookie, cheer me up, don't tremble like a little kid. I don't want to report to my superiors tomorrow that an idiot has fallen off the city wall and broken his neck! You've been here for three months and you haven't gotten used to life here? ”

"Yes, yes............ I'm sorry, sir, I ............."

"Be louder! Didn't you bastard eat at night? ”

"I'm sorry!! Sir! ”

Hearing the angry shouts of the other man, the young soldier closed his eyes and shouted loudly, and hearing his answer, the old soldier nodded with satisfaction, he walked to Henry's side, and then reached out and patted the other man's shoulder, and at the same time knocked on the shield beside the young man, making a dull and loud collision sound.

"That's right, boy. Remember, don't think you're here for leisure, it's not that easy. Take it easy, yes......... Stand up straight! I told you to relax, but I didn't turn you into a puddle of soft mud! The vigil needs to be clever, especially the recent days have not been peaceful, who knows what will happen to the road. ”

"Yes, sir! But ............"

"But? What are you? ”

Looking at the veteran in front of him glaring at him viciously, the young rookie soldier couldn't help but close his mouth. This is the army, and he is in the barracks, even if he has enough reasons. It is also not allowed to contradict one's superiors. After all, he is a soldier, and it is his duty to obey orders, and asking questions is not something that rookie soldiers should be concerned about.

"Alright. It's not like I don't know what's going on in your minds. ”

Perhaps because he didn't reply, the old soldier's fierce expression on his face was a little restrained, he took out a wine jug from his bosom, poured some wine into his mouth, and then wiped his mouth indiscriminately, and then turned his head to look at the dark sea that made Henry's heart tremble.

"We're far away from the borders of the principality, and we don't have to worry about this place except for a few small-scale outrunners and bandits. Hey, I know what you're thinking. There are no threats, no wars, peace is like a ball of shit, but even in such a hellish place, you still have to stay away from the warm bed. Standing guard outside against the damn sea breeze against the sea where there is nothing, haluha, I was the same when I first came here, and to be honest, I also thought this fortress was useless, it was small and dirty. And stay away from threats, damn it......... It's lucky and unlucky to stand guard here, think about it, boy. Don't envy your fellow idiots who ride tall horses and carry flags to the border, don't look bored to death right now. When you return to your hometown at the end of the year, sit in the warmth and comfort of your home, and listen to the cries of your next-door neighbor who has lost his son, you will realize how lucky you are now. ”

"Yes! Sir! ”

"Hey, just look at your appearance, I know that you didn't listen, it doesn't matter, anyway, there are some things that you won't understand if you haven't experienced them. Okay, keep standing your post, I've heard that there's been a lot of chaos on the other side lately, and although I don't think it's likely that something will happen, you guys still have to be serious about me............ Well? What was that? ”…,
