Chapter 12 Scumbag 2

Francis Long is part of the Long clan from the town of Mirna the neighboring town of Awan village. The town is where most of the villagers would go to buy some of their supplies and where their children would also go to pursue higher studies.

The town of Mirna is a prosperous town with 2 Class-B protecting it just like Awan village.

The Long clan has a standing contribution to the town of Mirna as is well-known for its military prowess. Their generations have served the army for many years which made them an asset to the town and to the country.

Francis Long is one of the grandsons of the Longs that decided to serve in the military. And because of his excellent background, his rank increased in just one month after joining the army. From being a private, he became a corporal and then a sergeant.

His promotion is due to his excellent background and education.

According to his records, he is actually a field medic and has passed the qualification as one.

And of course, this made Francis Long very conceited and have been a bit of a bully in the barracks.

Today, he was left in the camp and has nothing to do. He did not want to go and help that convoy that was attacked as he knew that the army would be encountering something dangerous back then, so he decided to feint sickness.

After the army leaves, he and his crew are like mice wanting to play while the cat is away.

And after their group met together they were about to play when they saw a woman with a veil. He wanted to hit on her, but who would have known that the female guard beside her would be so fierce as to knock him to the ground with ease?

Enraged by such humiliation he wanted to retaliate, but he could not as he saw the wife of the village chief who is also a Class-B walking toward the woman.

He could only reign in his anger and watch as the group left.

He was thoroughly embarrassed that he became so wrought with anger.

He wanted to beat someone, and who would have known that an unknown man would suddenly appear and walk towards them?

It was like a sheep walking towards a hungry alpha wolf.

Without hesitation, he and his group quickly pounce on that guy.

And the guy they are going to pounce on is… Han Jin.

Han Jin looks at the group in confusion as he could see them glaring at him. They are like menacing beasts wanting to devour him whole.

He could not help but subconsciously look at his back in case he was wrong with this conjecture and that someone is actually behind him which caused these guys to be angry.

But he saw no one. As soon as his gaze went back to the group… they are already near his face.

Sensing the threatening gaze from the group of young men, Han Jin subconsciously lowers his left hand and held the wooden hilt of his ugly machete.

His action did not escape the eyes of the men in front of him and one of them sneered. With quick action, that guy suddenly pounces on him wanting to pin him on the ground.

This series of actions triggered Han Jin's reaction and everything suddenly moved sluggishly around him.

He quickly made a step to the side while leaving one of his legs to trip the guy which seems to be a soldier with the rank of private just like him.

Bam!

The man fall to the ground which stunned the rest of his companions.

"You dare!" shouted another one as he pounces on Han Jin.

But the same thing happened to the guy after Han Jin dodges his punch, he tripped the man and the man hits his face on the ground.

This time this small commotion has already attracted the eyes of some of the soldiers who look in their direction with interest.

"Capture this man!" shouted Francis Long while glaring at Han Jin.

The rest of his gang quickly surrounded Han Jin wanting to beat him up. Meanwhile, the two on the ground also pick themselves up and joined the others surrounding him.

"Who are you?! How dare you attack a military soldier!" shouted Francis while glaring at Han Jin.

He wanted a reason to beat the guy up and an excuse, so he shouted to attract the attention of the soldiers.

"Wait! I did not attack you guys!" Han Jin shouted in panic.

But the others just sneer at him and one of them suddenly sneakily drew closer from behind wanting to grab Han Jin's back.

Han Jin has already felt the movement of that guy and let the man grab him from behind.

"I got him!" shouted that soldier.

Then another one pounces at Han Jin with his fist aiming at Han Jin's face.

Suddenly, Han Jin tilted his head to the side and that strong fist hits the person grabbing him from behind.

Bam!

That person holding Han Jin staggered as he lets go because of the pain in his nose.

But before he knew it, he could see the back of Han Jin already close to him. He wanted to grab the rifle sticking from Han Jin's back. But before he could make his move, he suddenly saw that body shifting to the side.

Then he saw a long leg swiping towards his face.

Bam!

That guy was thrown to the ground as his vision has already blurred after getting hit by a roundhouse kick from his companion.

Han Jin at this time has his back on another person, and without hesitation, that person grabs him from behind.

However, the same unlucky fate befalls that same person as he received the attacks of his companions while trying to hold Han Jin down.

The battle ensued but Han Jin did not throw any punch at all and just relied on dodging while using the force of his opponent against them.

It did not take long before all of the soldiers are on the dirt while Han Jin stood calmly looking at Francis Long who is glaring at him while his other eye has a purple bruise on them.

At this time, an enforcer suddenly appears followed by a group of soldiers.

"What is the meaning of this?" shouted the female enforcer with a stern gaze while looking at the sprawled people on the ground and at Han Jin who has a look of innocence in his eyes.

She could not believe that this young man who looked a bit like a beggar could do such a thing to well-trained soldiers.

"Staff Sergeant Lai… that guy beat us up!" shouted Francis Long while pointing at Han Jin.

Han Jin on the side shrugged his shoulders.

"I did not beat you guys, I just did not want to get hit by your punches that I dodge. And now you're blaming me?" Han Jin said with an aggrieved tone.

The soldiers on the side laughed and one of them shouted.

"Haha… That's right… Corporal Long and his men tried to assault this younger brother and he did not fight back!" that soldier has blonde hair and has an air of arrogance in his eyes.

When Francis heard his words, he gritted his teeth and glared at the young soldier.

"Shut up, Mikee!" he shouted in anger.

"Who are you?" this time the female staff sergeant asked while looking at Han Jin.

"I… I am Private Han Jin from Galia city cadet graduate. I was tasked to guard a convoy when we were attacked. I got lost in the forest and ended up in here… mam!" Han Jin straightened his body and reported with a salute.

When everyone realized that the beggar-looking guy is actually a soldier, they were all dumbfounded.

"So you came here to report?" Staff Sergeant Lai Ying asked with a frown.

The information that the young man has given is a bit vague, but if he really is a part of that convoy that sent the distress signal, then they would need to send him back to the convoy.

"No mam… I'm just here to ask for direction…" Han Jin said still standing at attention.

"At ease… You would have to wait then… The convoy is being rescued and they would be passing through this village before proceeding to the town of Alfas. You should report to the quartermaster's area for your attendance in this barracks, now…" she said while pointing in the direction of the barracks.

Francis who is listening on the side glares at Han Jin. Since this guy is also a soldier and just a no insignia private at that, he has plenty of ways to toy with him.

People would always call him a scumbag in the army, but for him, he is just playing around. At least he has not raped or killed anyone before… a least in the open that is.

While thinking of ways how he could get his revenge, a slight sinister glint flickers in his eyes as he walked toward his gang and glares at them for being so useless.

"Get up… I need to go somewhere… We have to prepare a gift for the newcomer…" Francis snorted as he leads the group to the village market.

Meanwhile, on the side, a pair of eyes are watching Han Jin's back, and that figure gives a satisfied nod before leaving.

"Nice work… little brother… It seems that you surviving in that forest is not a fluke…" that figure muttered before leaving the area.
