I Became a Blind Swordsman at the Academy - Chapter 346



346. Protractor

It wasn’t until the last night of vacation that I was able to finish everything I had to do.

As planned in advance, Geum Myeong set out to start her business. Since he did not yet know much about the geography of the West and the background of people, he said he would select a useful person from among the names written in the ledger and make him his secretary.

In the process, a picture that would inevitably threaten the nobleman would appear, but even so, no separate bodyguards were attached.

Volk, who spent time with Keraf and gained experience as a guard, was the perfect bodyguard, but Geumyeomyeong himself was judged not to be weak enough to go to a certain place and die unexpectedly.

Volk thought it would be a good idea to stay at the academy and train with Ray to improve his skills.

His personal goal was to control wild beasts. He is strong enough even without using beast boots, but in the future he will face enemies that are much stronger than any enemies he has faced before.

He asked for ‘equipment’ that would be needed in the near future.

Communication equipment that was simpler than a crystal ball but had better performance was desperately needed. It will be of great help in future planning.

But they say it will take some time.

Since we have to manufacture items that have never existed on Earth, we would be lucky if we could search through the database and find forgotten blueprints, but otherwise we would have to start over from the process design.

My ‘prosthetic hand’ was a similar case.

They say that it has been quite a long time since humans became extinct, so there is almost no equipment for humans.

The drone we saw before is said to have been around since Zepeti’s aircraft were operating in the desert of Delgrad under the name of ‘alien species’.

Because they had a strong tendency to assimilate into the fantasy world, I think drones were probably treated as ‘fairies’.

As a bonus, I asked Geppeti a question.

What exactly was this otherworldly species that was once called the ‘Scourge of Delgrad’?

When I asked that, Jepeti said that.

‘Oh, that was a ‘ship’. I thought it wouldn’t work like this, so I planned to conquer the nearby area, but the Pantherans were much stronger than I thought. It was only huge in size, and the only weapon it was equipped with was a mining machine used in mines, so it exploded beautifully.’

Jepeti said that weapons previously used on Earth were difficult to make due to software problems. However, the mining machines used in the mine alone seemed to be quite a threat to the residents of Delgrad.

When I asked if it was something like a drill, I was told that the ‘beam’ attached to the prosthetic hand was a very similar concept to a mining machine. When the topic of science came up, Zeppeti got excited and talked at length, but I, who was weak in science, listened with one ear and let it go with the other.

If the person who made it knew it well, wouldn’t that be okay?

In addition, whenever Jepeti had time, he often took ‘Sierra’ with him to study vampire iron. Sierra, whose sword itself was a part of her body, must have been quite ashamed of the research process and screamed to stop Zeppeti, but I shook my head and said that it was a necessary process.

Then, we asked our hero Ray to refrain from practicing using the holy sword for the time being.

Ray naturally asked why that should be so.

He even cried, wondering if something had gone wrong.

It seems that, unlike her previous days as a warrior, her memories of her past life remained intact, making her feel impatient.

I consoled her as she cried and told her that when her public exam was held, there was a high possibility that her demons would come to her academy, so her true identity could be discovered.

Is it because there are only women around?

Ray was becoming more and more like a younger sister.

I am not sure whether to say that we are escaping from the essence or getting closer to the essence.

It is still unknown whether the Ray seen in Mikhail’s memories is the first hero or not.

Lastly, I told Misty, who had suddenly become a nanny and bodyguard, to rest comfortably until she recovered.

Well, the bodyguard’s words were meant to persuade Hubert.

Actually, there is no need for bodyguards.

The combat power of the personnel staying at home must be very outstanding.

Maybe that’s why her role was supposed to be her nanny, but Misty, who wasn’t feeling well, had to get up and help Petty every time she did her cooking, so she had a hard time trying to stop her.

Misty had quite strong maternal love, perhaps because she had been taking care of Volk, who was older than her.

What did I do?

I asked Heneris various questions.

As she knelt down and clasped her hands together, Sierra asked why she was suddenly praying when she had not said so, but there was something she had to ask Heneris for her own sake.

The most important question was what would happen if Sierra, her spirit body, was superimposed on her organic body.

[ The point is, what happens if you bring back a ‘completely’ dead character? ]

I had ‘Tears of the Dead’ so there was no penalty, but isn’t it a different story to resurrect a character who died a long time ago?

Heneris declared without hesitation.

[ You will be severely cursed. Not a resurrected person, but a resurrected person. Because ‘administrators’ do not overlook actions that violate the laws of the world. Unlike Loki’s world, in my world we haven’t advanced to the point where dead humans can be easily revived. ]

This time, it was the ‘manager’.

My guess is that there seems to be a being called a ‘manager’ above gods such as Loki and Heneris.

[ It happens like this again. Even so, the girl you are trying to save is being monitored by her manager as she is considered a person of interest. ]

It seemed like it was because of the adverse weather.

If you write Chapter 3, even the lightning that falls belongs to the manager.

[ Even if you live, you will be cursed as seriously as if you were not alive. In her case, there is a very high possibility that she will never be able to wield a sword for the rest of her life. ]

As expected, the penalty for the curse was significant.

You may not think it’s a big deal, but the problem was that it was Sierra and no one else.

I think it must have been very painful for her to have become her ghost because she was unable to overcome her sword spirit in the end.

She was hoping for a penalty that could at least be overcome, but it wasn’t easy to solve.

***

The Innocence Academy 1st year Class A classroom was filled with cadets for the first time in a long time.

In the center of the classroom, a man with gray hair was explaining the ‘special class’ with elegant hand gestures.

“The Anti-Demon Special Class, as the name suggests, is a class that develops the ability to deal with demons. It is a special class to prepare for the upcoming war. Anyone is eligible to participate, regardless of grade or class, but since it is to prepare for war, the rules are strict. “We plan to select students through a test. Cadets in special classes do not take the main exam, which is held at the end of the year. Of course, the special class exam will be much more difficult than the main exam.”

The cadets who were listening to Edward’s explanation swallowed their saliva, probably nervous at the word war.

But some were still unable to concentrate.

In particular, people who were close to me were still whispering about the newspaper article.

“Then was that when you were away for a moment?”

“You cut down a hundred blood mages in that short period of time?”

“When did you come back?”

“I remember coming back before the sun rose.”

I can hear Crank and Amon whispering.

Amon questioned whether what was written in the newspaper was true, but when I remained silent until the end, he ended up using his crank and brain to compare the situation at the time.

“A hundred blood mages in just one hour?”

“Give me one hour. I will cut off the heads of a hundred blood wizards.”

I honestly didn’t care what they were talking about because they always said stupid things, but why do I feel ashamed, as if my secrets were revealed?

The article should have been reasonably detailed.

So, other than those two idiots, what was the reaction of others?

“I shouldn’t have included you too.”

Eisel had already noticed her, so she didn’t seem to make a big deal of it. She said there were facts written down that she didn’t know, but she wasn’t really surprised.

“…I guess you’re comfortable alone.”

I should say that Yuri was not interested, but it felt like her mind was somewhere else. She seemed to have received bad news as soon as she returned from the East, as the only thing that bothered her was that of the Kingdom of Terrasia.

“……”

The problem was Kaen, and the atmosphere was quite strange.

The amount of talk has drastically decreased. I felt like I was much more gentle than before. She wondered if her body had been stolen by Baek Do-hwa, but seeing as her memories were still intact, it didn’t seem like that was the case.

Is it just my mood that makes me feel like her presence has become faint as she has become quieter?

Kaen’s emotions, which I observed through her progress during her vacation, were very pale. She often appeared to be ‘blank’, a state in which she had no strong emotions, but I still don’t know if it had anything to do with it.

She was honestly scared.

Yuri’s problem could have been solved by making a plan, but Kaen’s problem seemed difficult to deal with because it was something that had never happened to her in the game.

But you can’t just sit still. I have no choice but to run, hoping that the ball, not knowing where it will bounce, will land in my arms.

To summarize, her relationship with them is currently stuck.

I think it is right for me to play the player at this time, but at the same time, I am worried.

[ Surging Power – Lv.1 ]

Will everything be solved by raising the skill level?

In fact, she was confident that she could satisfy them even without raising her skill level. There was no evidence to make up for it, but her confidence was enough.

No, maybe he’s just trying to deceive me with his confidence.

Skill points are such an important resource that it hurts to talk about the importance of each skill point in the game.

The reason is simple.

As the level goes up, the amount of experience required to level up increases, but the skill point you gain after leveling up is only 1 regardless of whether you are at a low or high level.

In fact, this part can be solved by investing points mainly in high-efficiency, high-firepower skills that can be learned when the level is high.

Even if it is not necessary, there are many skills that become much more effective as the skill level increases. Even just looking at the station, the same is true.

But ‘soaring power’ is not like that.

It is not a utility-type skill, much less a combat-type skill, so it should be considered a ‘life skill’.

It is okay to not have it, to put it simply, it is a very useless skill.

While I was continuing these thoughts, I made eye contact with Kaen. She may not even have realized that our eyes had met, but she was staring at me anyway.

“……”

As I look into Kaen’s lowered eyes, a memory comes to mind just before I slept with Baek Do-hwa.

It may be a past life, but I remember that at the time, Baek Cheon-gyeol was trembling with fear and urgently visited the doctor.

In other words, wouldn’t it be difficult to withstand even the physical strength of the conquering king who unified the East?

“……”

I came to a scary conclusion and inadvertently put all the skill points I had into the ‘surging power’ that appeared in the status window.

Nothing else, I just had a strong feeling that I didn’t want to end my life as a fortune teller.
