Chapter 949: Keep up the Good Work

After this separation, it was unknown when we would meet again, so Darlena tried her best to spend more time with Lina.

But the limited time did not allow Darlena to chat with Lina anymore.

The four carriages responsible for sending the 24 members back to their hometown finally drove out of Delan Undead Town.

Darlena waved goodbye to Lina until the four carriages completely disappeared from her sight.

…

…

Although today was the day when the seriously injured left the Delan Undead Team, it was a sad day, but the hard training continued as usual.

After completing a day of hard training and having dinner, Darlena dragged her tired body back to the hut where she lived.

The base of the Delan Undead Team was originally a deserted town, so the base of the Delan Undead Team was also called "Delan Undead Town".

Because they lived in the town, the residences assigned to the members of the Undead Team were all rooms, not tents.

After returning to her residence, the first thing Darlene did was to put away the piece of paper with Lina's home address that she and Yara had given her today.

Darlene and Yara discussed it and decided that the more stable Darlene would keep the paper with Lina's home address.

After putting away this important paper, Darlene found a comrade who lived under the same roof with her sitting on the bed and writing something.

Darlene looked closely and found that her comrade was writing a letter home.

Looking at this comrade who was writing a letter home, Darlene said in her heart:

-Home letter...

-Speaking of which, it seems that I haven't written a letter to my hometown for a long time.

-The last time I sent a letter home was before the "Aurora" offensive began.

After realizing that she hadn't written a letter to her hometown for a long time, Darlene took out her letter paper and pen and ink, intending to take advantage of her free time now to write a long-lost letter to her parents in her hometown.

However, something strange happened.

Darlene clearly felt that she had a lot of things to tell her parents.

But looking at the blank letter paper, Darlene felt that she couldn't say a word.

There was a kind of food stuck in her throat, and she couldn't vomit it out or swallow it.

Darlene, who had been holding a blank letter paper in a daze, attracted the attention of the comrade who was sitting on the bed next to her and writing a letter home.

"What? Darlene." She asked Darlene in a half-joking tone, "Don't you know what to tell your parents back home?"

"Well, yes..." Darlene laughed helplessly a few times, "I've experienced a lot of things since the start of the 'Aurora' offensive. I feel like there are a lot of things I want to tell my parents, but I don't know where to start..."

"Well..." The comrade pondered for a long time, "Then why don't you tell your parents how many military exploits you have made in the 'Aurora' offensive and what interesting things you have encountered."

"This 'Aurora' offensive has been going on for several months. You have been in the homeland of the Holy Xilan Empire for so long. There should be one or two interesting things to tell your parents, right?"

"Interesting... things..." Darlene murmured in a low voice.

"Well, yes, interesting things." The comrade paused, "It's a pity to say that. I originally hoped to see the Aurora in this 'Aurora' offensive, but I didn't see anything..."

Darlene ignored the comrade's mumbling.

Instead, she concentrated on the blank letter in her hand, thinking about the content of the letter.

She had already vaguely grasped what she wanted to say to her parents.

Darlene picked up the quill pen on the bedside, dipped it in ink, and began to write on the letter.

After writing a long paragraph of routine greetings, Darlene wrote solemnly:

[Dad, Mom. Before the start of this year's "Aurora" offensive, I always felt that the "Aurora" offensive I was about to participate in was just.

Because our superiors told us: Only if the Xilan people are beaten,

the Xilan people will not dare to go south to invade us again.

In fact, if you think about it carefully, what the superior said is not wrong. If we beat the Xilan people half to death, it will indeed make the Xilan people dare not go south for a long time in the future.

In other words - from this perspective, the "Aurora" offensive I participated in is indeed just. We launched this battle in order to make the citizens of our country live a better and safer life.

However, after the Aurora offensive, I suddenly realized that justice is so complicated and hard to explain.

We think our Aurora offensive is just, and the Xilan people may also think that their series of battles against our offensive are just.

After all, from their perspective, they are fighting against invaders, just like our "Overlord Counterattack" last year.

The Xilan people's resistance to our Aurora offensive seems to be no different from our "Overlord Counterattack" last year, both are fighting against invaders.

It's just that our resistance last year was victorious, while the Xilan people's resistance this year failed.

After the Aurora offensive ended, I suddenly had a strange idea:

Everyone thinks they are just, maybe this is because there are always wars.

The topic of justice is so complicated that I think even those great scholars may not be able to study it thoroughly.

As a soldier from a village, I should just obey the orders of my superiors and stop thinking about these things.

After all, what else can a soldier like me do except obey the orders of my superiors?

Love you Darlene Carter. 】

……

Britannia Empire, Pendragon, Allen's residence.

"Long time no see, Allen."

Alan looked expressionlessly at Ebel, who broke into his home without his consent.

"Ebel." Allen asked Ebel in a calm tone, "What's the matter?"

"No, nothing." Ebel shook his head, "I just wanted to come and praise you."

"You performed very well in this 'Aurora' offensive and won a lot of military merit."

"You did a good job! Allen, you have to keep up the good work and strive to get more military merits, so that your status in the Britannia Empire will be higher and higher."

"Keep working hard, Allen. Try to get more merits so that you can get a higher position in the Britannia Empire. I look forward to your next performance."

"Keep up the good work." After saying that, Ebel turned and left directly, "I'm going back to the Frank Empire. See you later."

Just when Ebel was about to disappear from Allen's sight, Ebel suddenly stopped.

"... Tell you something interesting, Allen."

"What is it?" Allen, who didn't have much good feelings for Ebel, said impatiently.

"Probably in a few years, there will be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to make great contributions in front of you."

Ebel's smile at this time was very strange.

"When that golden opportunity comes to you, remember to seize it. As long as you can seize it, having more 'Fong' in your name will be within your reach."

After that, Ebel no longer paid attention to Alan and walked away from Alan's field of vision, leaving Alan with a puzzled look on his face, following Ebel's back.
