Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3)
From his perspective, Major Lee Hyena was, all things considered, a fairly decent person.
It wasn’t something he had been born with.
Kim Seojun was fairly good at judging people.
When a human being has death right in front of them, their true nature inevitably ends up revealing itself, and Kim Seojun had experienced such desperate situations countless times.

He could also tell from talking with her.
‘No matter how important the mission is, no one enters a planet alone.’
For starters, the simple fact that she was carrying out a solo mission on planet Amotia demonstrated that, at the very least, she acted with a certain sense of duty.
She did everything she could to look after Kim Seojun and Private First Class Park Boseop.
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
Kim Seojun had dared to express several opinions that perhaps weren’t his place to give precisely because he knew all of that.
“Are you delegating all command authority to me?”
And Psykers like that were less common than one might imagine.
He had only stretched out because he knew he had room to stretch his legs.
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
However, that was an answer even Kim Seojun hadn’t anticipated.
Handing over command authority was that extraordinary of a decision.
“That’s right.”
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
‘She isn’t trying to pass the responsibility onto me either.’
It didn’t simply mean, ‘Do whatever you want!’
It meant that, from that moment onward, Lee Hyena would obey Kim Seojun’s orders.
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
And Lee Hyena wasn’t calculating enough to come up with something like that either.
Military law wasn’t so ridiculous that such a trick would work.
Furthermore, this wasn’t some trick to free herself from any responsibility for the crimes they might commit.
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
It was undoubtedly an important reason.
“Thank you.”
She had made that decision because she trusted Kim Seojun’s abilities.
Of course, that wasn’t the only reason.
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
‘It seems she’s mistaken me for a Psyker.’
The possibility was more than sufficient.
However, from Kim Seojun’s perspective, there was another reason that wasn’t insignificant either.
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
Furthermore, it was fairly common for Psyker Agents to conceal their identities or do similar things.
Considering the abilities Kim Seojun had demonstrated up to that point, it was perfectly natural to reach the conclusion that he was a Psyker.
‘It doesn’t hurt me either.’
From Kim Seojun’s perspective, there was no reason to reject that misunderstanding.
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
There was only one thing he had to do now.
Perhaps it could cause him problems in the future, but in Kim Seojun’s mind, there was no ‘future’ at that moment.
It was much more convenient for them to think, ‘So he’s a Psyker!’ than for him to have to explain every detail.
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
Planet Amotia was a wasteland.
“Then, from this moment onward, we’ll head to the enemy stronghold.”
At least, that was all it appeared to be at first glance.
However, if there had truly been nothing there, so many countries wouldn’t have desperately tried to develop it despite it being an Orange-grade planet, in other words, a place infested with Mog.
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
Within those labyrinthine places were spaces that had previously been used as shelters and could be reused without any problems as long as they received an adequate power supply.
That was why there were also a large number of mines, and those mines became excellent hideouts for those engaged in clandestine activities on the planet.
Beneath that ground were abundant deposits of all kinds of valuable resources.
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
That place not only had facilities capable of opening even supply crates with extremely strict security systems, but also defensive facilities capable of withstanding possible external intrusions.
That was precisely why the thieves used Hongyuan Mine, which the Chinese division on planet Amotia had closed after finishing its exploitation, as a hideout.
In other words, intrusions by the owners of the supplies.
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
Normally, they also kept a very close watch on the surrounding area.
Psykers weren’t among the threats they had prepared against. All translations belong to Indra Translations. You can find us online at indratranslations.com
There was only one problem.
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
If someone brought a valuable Psyker all the way there and told them.
In truth, that was perfectly natural.

“It seems you take me for an idiot!”
Crack!
“Psyker, it seems someone stole a supply crate. antique Could you recover it for us?”
The Psyker would probably respond with a smile.
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
That was why, the instant Major Lee Hyena appeared, the defenses of Hongyuan Mine, controlled by the Chinese soldiers, were left completely defenseless.
And that wasn’t all.
“Clear.”
Bang! amateur Bang!
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
Kim Seojun, who had entered with her, also played an important role.
No.
“Clear.”
Rather than simply playing an important role, he was achieving results even more terrifying than Major Lee Hyena’s.
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
Because the value of X-Ray Vision inside a winding, labyrinthine mine was impossible to describe.
However, X-Ray Vision wasn’t omnipotent.
The ability was affected by density.
‘X-Ray Vision really is an absurd skill.’
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
When foreign substances were suspended in the atmosphere, he could see through them because their density itself was low, but when it came to materials like rock, there was a limit to what his vision could penetrate.
Naturally, there were also times when he couldn’t see through high-density materials like iron.
In particular, the combination of Major Lee Hyena and Sergeant Kim Seojun was extremely powerful.
Even so, its usefulness remained enormous.
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
There couldn’t be more perfect teamwork.
Thanks to that, the situation ended quickly.
One opened the way and the other finished them off.
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
After those shots from Kim Seojun, there was no longer any sign of anyone anywhere.
“Clear.”
Bang! aspect Bang!
Of course, the real beginning was precisely that moment.
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
“Let’s gather everything quickly and get out of here.”
Kim Seojun and Major Lee Hyena headed to the warehouse where the stolen supplies had been gathered.
The fact that they had broken into the place had surely already been transmitted to the Chinese headquarters on planet Amotia, and there was no doubt they would immediately send troops.
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
Excessive greed always ended up causing problems.
The two took only everything they could carry with them.
Fortunately for them, the Chinese soldiers had organized the supplies very well and stacked them neatly inside the warehouse.
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
However, the instant both of them saw a supply crate that still hadn’t been opened, they couldn’t help but stop.
Because they understood.
“Sergeant Kim.”
“Yes, I saw it.”
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
There was an enormous supply crate there.
“It looks like Psyker supplies.”
‘This belongs to a Psyker, don’t touch it!’
Naturally, it didn’t have any sign saying something like.
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
If it had been an ordinary supply crate, they would have dismantled it long ago.
But not only was it still intact, there were also clear traces around it showing that, until just a few moments earlier, they had been trying to open it by every possible means.
However, it wasn’t difficult to be certain of its identity.
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
At that, Lee Hyena hesitated.
The value of a Psyker’s supplies was incalculable.

Of course, trying to take it from there would, in many ways, mean giving in to greed.
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
For starters, it was too large.
Rather, trying to force it open could cause an accident.
And most importantly, even if they managed to take it with them, they didn’t even know whether they could open it.
Transporting it itself wouldn’t be difficult, but because of its size, they would have to give up an equivalent amount of food, ammunition, or other supplies.
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
‘I can’t even see the inside clearly with X-Ray Vision.’
Kim Seojun thought the same thing.
Not even Kim Seojun could check what was inside.
In the case of Psyker supplies, for security reasons, some crates were configured to detonate a bomb if someone tried to force them open.
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
Surprisingly, that was a fairly commonly used system.
‘Is it a combination lock?’
For several reasons, he was prepared to let it go.
However, the moment he confirmed that the lock on that safe was a combination type, one that opened by turning a dial until the correct numbers were entered, his expression changed.
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
And above all, biometric authentication had the disadvantage that it could only be opened if the authorized person came in person.
Keys could also be lost.
The safest method was biometric authentication, but that type of system wasn’t very durable.
If that person died or ended up in a situation where they couldn’t move, the system became useless.
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
What mattered was something else.
A combination lock, on the other hand, had certain advantages in those respects.
Of course, it didn’t matter which system they used.
‘Can I see through this with X-Ray Vision?’
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
He immediately used X-Ray Vision.
Surprisingly, he began to see the inside of the dial in detail.
Kim Seojun didn’t hesitate.
For Kim Seojun, who possessed X-Ray Vision, a combination lock could be a ridiculously simple security mechanism.
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
Kim Seojun didn’t hesitate.
He began turning the dial.
The inside of the security mechanism itself.
Rrrrrr.
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
Even as he turned it, the dial barely made any sound.
But Kim Seojun didn’t care about the sound.
In movies, it was common to see someone discover the combination by listening to the sound the dial made as it turned, so that mechanism had been designed precisely to eliminate even that possibility.
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
Because he could see it.
He stopped there.
And turned it again.
Every time he reached a certain number, he could see something fit perfectly into a notch in the disc behind the dial.
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
After repeating that process ten times, it happened.
The supply crate began to open with a loud sound.
Psssssssh!
“Fuck.”
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
She positioned herself in front of him to serve as his shield.
“Get behind me!”
She immediately approached Kim Seojun and shouted.
At that instant, the startled voice of Major Lee Hyena could be heard. absorb She had been checking the supplies some distance away and therefore didn’t know what Kim Seojun was doing.
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
“Ah.”
She had interpreted that sound as a bomb or some other dangerous device exploding or activating.
Of course, it didn’t take her long to understand what had actually happened.
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
Half from embarrassment.

The moment she understood, Lee Hyena’s face began to stiffen.
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
“H-How?”
And the other half from disbelief.
“I got lucky.”
As she looked at him with that expression, Kim Seojun said.
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
Lee Hyena looked at him with an expression that practically said, ‘Do you really expect me to believe that?’
“You got lucky?”
Kim Seojun immediately replied.
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
“First, let’s check what’s inside.”
After all, when it came to a Psyker, nothing they did would seem strange. Visit indratranslations.com for more free chapters and updates.
“It’s my ability. beacon I have X-Ray Vision. athlete I won’t explain anything else.”
Lee Hyena was surprised when she heard the answer, but it didn’t take her long to accept it.
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
And that wasn’t the time to ask questions about Kim Seojun’s abilities either.
The first things they saw were firearms, and there was a considerable variety.
There were three pistols, three assault rifles, and one sniper rifle.
The two checked the Psyker’s supply crate at the same time.
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
Instead, all the remaining space was filled with ammunition.
Of course, there was nothing strange about that either.
There was no suit.
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
It was much more common to request consumables such as ammunition and firearms.
Supplies were, literally, additional items that a Psyker requested during a mission or training.
If their suit was still intact and the rest of their equipment was in good condition, there was no reason to request another suit.
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
Furthermore, even with only that, the value of that supply crate exceeded anything an ordinary person could imagine.
From Kim Seojun’s perspective, it was enough to make his eyes linger on everything.
Their value was enormous.
Naturally, the weapons used Gauss technology, and the ammunition consisted of special projectiles manufactured for those Gauss weapons.
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
However, there was one thing in particular that caught his attention.
The moment he saw it, a memory from quite some time ago appeared in Kim Seojun’s mind.
‘Could that be……’
A can of cola designed for space that was sitting in one corner.
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
The moment she heard the name Hawk Eye, Lee Hyena’s expression changed.
“Have you heard anything about Hawk Eye coming here?”
Then he asked.
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
That was how overwhelming that name was to those who lived in space.
She was stunned.
Because Hawk Eye was the best sniper among all the human beings who existed in space.
‘America’s best sniper.’
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
There was absolutely no clue that would allow them to connect them to the name Hawk Eye.
There wasn’t even any country marking on the outside.
“Sergeant Kim Seojun, are you saying these supplies belong to Hawk Eye? voyage How can you be sure?”
Of course, what they had in front of them was nothing more than supplies of a relatively common level.
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
He wasn’t someone they would send to a mere Orange-grade planet.
He belonged to the United States, held the rank of Colonel, and possessed power that surpassed even what corresponded to that rank.
Kim Seojun knew that as well.
Furthermore, Hawk Eye wasn’t an ordinary Psyker.
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
Even so, there was a simple reason why he had asked that question.
“There’s cola.”

Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
“Yes.”
As he spoke, an old memory appeared in Kim Seojun’s mind.
“Cola?”
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
Hawk Eye had been mobilized to hunt that extraordinary monster, and the United States Space Defense Forces, including Hawk Eye, had managed to hunt the Behemoth.
Of course, that didn’t mean Kim Seojun had personally met Hawk Eye during the process.
It was the memory of the second time he had encountered a Behemoth.
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
He only learned what had happened after the battle ended, when he returned to the space station aboard a rescue ship.
His company commander approached Kim Seojun and told him.
“Seojun, Hawk Eye says you’re a fucking lunatic!”
Far from meeting him, at the time Kim Seojun had been too busy fleeing from the Behemoth.
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
And he had also sent him a gift.
‘I suppose flooring the accelerator with a Behemoth behind me and a general sitting beside me really was insane.’
Hawk Eye had seen the desperate escape Kim Seojun had pulled off back then.
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
That gift had been a cola.
“Hawk Eye likes cola.”
That was when Kim Seojun discovered it.
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
In any PX, there were enough cans to make someone sick of seeing them.
Of course, cola wasn’t something only Hawk Eye could obtain.
Hawk Eye, that existence whose name alone was known and whose face wasn’t even public knowledge, enjoyed drinking cola.
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
“That’s all. galaxy I’m not sure. ability I only asked just in case.”
After all, nothing was certain.
So Kim Seojun ended his explanation there.
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
‘……Please, don’t let him be here. armor Please.’
Because if Hawk Eye was there, there was a high probability that planet Amotia had become a far worse hell than they imagined.
Kim Seojun simply thought.
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
“Sergeant Kim! audit You said those were Hawk Eye’s supplies! galaxy If we steal that……!”
Seeing that, Lee Hyena flinched.
Regardless of that, Kim Seojun’s hand moved toward the supply crate.
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
“You don’t?”
At her warning, which basically meant, ‘If we steal this, we’re fucked!’, Kim Seojun replied.
“That’s right. atom The ones who stole them were the Chinese soldiers. autumn If we leave them here, they’ll simply end up becoming the property of the Chinese military.”
“It’s not certain that they’re his. august And I don’t intend to steal them either.”
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
The moment she heard that, Lee Hyena’s gaze wavered.
“So I’m merely collecting them to return them to their owner.”
Then he added.
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
Kim Seojun continued.
Kim Seojun paused briefly.
“Of course, some problems may arise during the process of returning them.”
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
“But it won’t be our fault.”
Nor did she have time to.
At those words, Lee Hyena could no longer say anything else.
Then he looked at the corpses of the Chinese soldiers scattered around them and finished by saying.
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
The radio sounded.
Park Boseop, who was waiting outside, spoke hurriedly.
— Major! harbor Sergeant!
Translation of A Space Marine Got a Status Window - Chapter 12: I Became a Looter on My Second Day as an NCO (3) by Indra Translations.
— We’re fucked! wizard A Tank Bug has appeared!
