I Became a Blind Swordsman at the Academy chapter 115

115. the only lie

115. the only lie

In general, the people you can encounter within Innocence Academy are limited.

First of all, they are the cadets who can be called the protagonists of the academy.

Innocence Academy is the name of an educational institution before being a city.

Then, naturally, there will be educators who will teach the cadets, and if you look at it more broadly, the staff of the academy.

This was the category of an educational institution.

Then, how about looking at the city?

In order to achieve a city, people from various fields are needed. There are countless numbers of people, such as the top tier that distributes goods, a cook who runs a restaurant, a herbalist, and so on. However, under the judgment of the academy, there are people who are needed in the city, that is, people who are in demand just by existing.

After that, they are the families of the aforementioned people.

Ram, the son of herbalist Rumbo, whom he met in the past to deal with lycanthrope more easily, is a representative example that fits this case.

No matter how closed the academy was, it did not block the freedom to form a family.

Of course, the family of the cadets is an exception, as they have been through open classes before. It’s about the longest I can’t meet for 3 years. There were also many cadets who came to the academy and left the arms of their families for the first time.

In general, nobles did.

Visitors who are not included in the foregoing will be able to set foot inside the academy after going through a strict screening process.

Well, it’s me who leaves the academy every single day, but that’s the normal route for now.

Tourism purposes are, of course, not permitted.

There had to be a good reason for the visit.

Now, then, the saintess Bernice in front of me should be regarded as a ‘visitor’.

Anyway, she is also a saint, and the weight of the word saint is by no means light.

You can visit anytime.

If only there was a good reason.

However, judging by the expression on her face when she found me just in time, it was clear that she was waiting for me.

My entry into the Saint’s Knights had to be kept secret from the academy. It is impossible to belong somewhere with the status of a cadet.

There is a problem here.

Did you use a normal route or a somewhat ‘unusual’ route?

It could be seen that it was not such a big problem, but the clothes of Bernice and Ecclin were unusual.

“…Jetto.”

Bernice, who quietly called out my name… was wearing a uniform.

‘When and where did you get the replacement uniform…?’

The only route for a non-cadet to obtain a uniform was an abnormal one.

Stealing the uniform, as Yorfang did earlier.

That’s what I thought.

However, I couldn’t even imagine the scene where Bernice, an innocent saint who was not another person, steals things. No matter how you think about it, it wasn’t.

For me, who can’t ask questions about clothes, this… I think it’s going to be a question that won’t be easily solved.

“The saintess and even the vice-captain… What are you doing here?”

They weren’t too surprised to see if I, to be precise, had gotten used to my feelings.

At my question that followed, Bernice turned her head and looked at Ecclin.

“Ecclin, I’d like to talk to Zeto alone. Is that okay?”

Soon, Ecklen, who is wearing a uniform, nods lightly and leans against a nearby tree.

It was the first time I had seen Ecclin in a skirt.

The entrance was more casual than I thought.

“Jetto, hold on…”

Soon after, Bernice came closer to me and opened her mouth.

In response, Bernice nodded her head slightly, closed her eyes, and raised her mouth as she stepped forward again.

“…Shall we walk together for a while?”

“…All right.”

I nodded and followed Bernice silently.

Even though he had figured out the existence of the saintess in advance, he was still dumbfounded.

“I’m sorry I showed up without contacting you. Were you surprised?”

“Hmm… the moment I found out about the existence of the saintess through the kigam in advance. Yes, I might have been a little surprised.”

“The reason why I came here without any hesitation was because of the initiation ceremony.”

“ah…”

I was kind of expecting it.

I wondered if it was to the point where I had to move my feet myself, but hearing Bernice’s slightly trembling voice, she might have been a little uneasy in her own way.

Even Bernice, who looked like a mace with no mercy towards the demons, had a soft side that could be called a ‘normal’ saint.

she loves people

Is it a devoted love?

This is quite surprising considering her abilities.

Distinguishing between truth and lies means unintentionally looking into the bad parts of people.

As such, it seems that she was very concerned about not being able to properly hold the initiation ceremony for her subordinates.

“I’m fine as I told the vice-captain. The joining ceremony was almost over anyway.”

I smiled brightly and tried to ease her concerns.

Bernice lowered her head, as if she was not satisfied with that. Looking at the atmosphere, it seems a little difficult to reveal the existence of Sierra.

“I’m fine as I told the vice-captain. The joining ceremony was almost over anyway.”

I heard Zeto’s voice in my ears.

Shed him lightly.

It was difficult to look at the face properly.

‘If it had been a lie, I wouldn’t have felt so heavy…’

He was thrown away without knowing why at the initiation ceremony, but he was telling me the truth with a bright smile.

People live by telling lies, big and small.

Sometimes you lie for the sake of the other person. Deep down, I hoped that what he said was okay until I met him.

Even that is all useless now.

“…sorry.”

I handed over a short apology compared to the burden rooted in my heart.

I didn’t even ask for forgiveness.

This was a one-sided apology.

I couldn’t raise my head.

If you look at him, you will find out.

how his life was at stake.

Does he know the end of this fate?

It was highly likely that he knew

It was a fate that he had earned on his own.

Jetto abruptly stops on the road.

Then his mouth opened and his sweet voice tickled his ears.

“Saintess, I swore to become the sword of Saint Bernice, the innocent saint. From that moment on, it was your sword. Hesitation and worry are unnecessary emotions when it comes to swinging the sword. So don’t worry about it and just swing it. I am the saintess. It’s a much harder sword than you think.”

It was a word that expressed his loyalty as a member of the Templars, but hearing it from Jeto felt like… sweet words.

Even the fact that it was all true without any omission made my ears hot.

Nevertheless, ‘Yes, I will definitely do that.’ A simple answer like that did not come out of my mouth.

It was because I didn’t think that I would be able to wield it without worry as he said, seeing his vitality.

He was hesitant to even heal with divine power because he couldn’t know exactly how much he was told not to touch his aura.

“……”

So I chose to laugh quietly and broadly.

I smiled as brightly as I could, even though I knew it was of no use to the blind man.

Because this was the only ‘lie’ I could spit out right now.

***

At my words, Bernice smiled broadly.

It was a really beautiful… Bernice-like smile.

I couldn’t hear the answer, but at least it seems that I was able to relieve her worries and worries.

Soon, he started walking through the woods with her again.

The cool morning air filled my lungs, and I felt my mind clear and refreshed.

The moisture of the dew on the grass was thick enough to be felt even without touching the skin.

Shortly after I walked away, Bernice spoke to me.

“…But what did Zeto do on his way in? It has a strong demon blood… Is it possible that he is on his way back after dealing with the demons? Just because he joined the Knights doesn’t mean he wants to overdo it.”

Bernice’s voice was somehow cool, as if scolding him.

‘I couldn’t change my clothes…’

Since I had Shady, I didn’t have to worry about bringing a change of clothes.

There was no way that Bernice, a saint who was feared by the demons, would miss the blood of the demons.

“…I didn’t overdo it. I think I just did what I had to do.”

Saying that, Bernice stopped staring at me as I was scratching my head and closed my eyes.

“The reason they did that… is it because of the demons they said were chasing them?”

“…”

He quietly nodded his head at her question.

It wasn’t the day he dealt with the demons he was chasing, that is, the demons who were aiming for Eisel.

Perhaps the saintess will see me as a vengeful demon with a deep grudge against the demons.

‘Someone in the Knights doesn’t have a grudge against the demons…’

It was not wrong to say that there was a grudge.

I had to see them as the villains of the villains, the culprits that caused me to retry the game thousands of times.

Soon Bernice grabs my hand and grabs it.

Turning her head, she had a sad face.

“It would be nice to take revenge on your own, but… the opponent is a demon. “I’m finally starting to talk about it.”

The eyes of the saintess who persuaded me were burning brightly. He was very enthusiastic.

What she said was not wrong.

If you can handle it, you have to deal with it quickly to reduce the number of victims that will become their growth.

However, there were big and small problems such as the problem of timing or the type that is difficult to share information.

‘In the first place, there was never a case where a saintess would directly deal with demons…’

There were no options for that type of conversation.

It was impossible because it was a game, but if even one of them was dealt with with the power of the saintess, the task would have been considerably easier.

Bernice is a saint after all.

As for demons, it could be seen as a specialist.

Near-infinite divine power.

Even the saintess of this generation, Bernice, was better at fighting than healing.

The captain and vice-captain followed her around, but in fact, Bernice didn’t need an escort. She was stronger than Inez.

Rather than being a simple healer, should I say that he is an all-around character who can be a healer and also has strong powers?

Well, he wasn’t a cadet, and it was impossible to have him as a colleague in many ways.

Pretending to be thinking about what to say, I touched my chin and pondered whose information I should hand over.

‘The ‘captain’ in the land of demons won’t work…’

Among those active in the human land, among those I’ve infiltrated long enough to be able to say that I’ve been doing information research, the one that’s troublesome to deal with alone.

It seemed good to choose the one that I could touch and see until the final phase, that is, ‘that day’.

…there was only one.

The reason it was difficult to deal with him was because of his identity.

While dealing with the issue of the heir to the Kingdom of Terrasia, the Yuri Clementine episode, it can be woven together and sent away, but banishment is the best.

It was hard until the execution.

The guy who disappeared like that used to show up on ‘that day’.

I don’t know if I’ll take care of him together with the saintess or if the saintess will take care of it alone, but this wasn’t a problem to worry about because it was a waste of experience.

At this level of growth, there were plenty of ways to gain experience without him.

After I finished calculating which guy’s information to solve, I opened my mouth and started explaining.

“This is the story of the guy I’ve been chasing since a long time ago… I’m sure you’ll need the saintess’s power to deal with him. Could you please lend me your strength?”

“I’ll gladly agree.”

Bernice answered before he even finished speaking.

Bernice listened to my explanation.

She must have felt that it was not a lie that I had been chasing her alone for a long time. It was a single player, so it was right to play alone, and it’s been a while since I’ve been playing the game.

This will sound like a completely different word to Bernice.

Bernice was fully focused on me.

I threw a question at her.

“How much do you know about the Golden Lion Knights?”

***

“You’re here, saintess. Let’s talk…”

Ecklen, who was leaning against a tree, paused to speak.

Oh, I couldn’t solve my expression.

I must have had a serious face like the one I often see when dealing with demons.

“…Did things go wrong?”

“It’s not like that. The talk is over. I didn’t forget to deliver the crystal ball…”

While talking with Zeto, I asked why he was doing so much.

His stamina was reduced even without any other movement, but he shouldn’t be forced to overdo it anymore because of the demons.

I wanted to lighten his burden.

It was also my mission to deal with the demons in the first place.

‘I did as much research as I could, but I didn’t organize the data separately, so please understand in advance that all the information is in my head. I think it would be enough if you directly confirm the true intention.’

Jetto, who tapped his own bandage, said that and continued his explanation.

He would not need typefaces or drawings, so this had to be taken into account.

At least he wasn’t lying.

Listening to the explanation like that, the demon he was chasing was around me more than I thought. So close that I think he may have followed my suggestion because of this.

The person presumed to be a demon was a person I knew.

Maybe that’s why, compared to his information that I have, there were parts that fit roughly.

The fact that he did not show up for regular reports to the Allied Forces. For some reason, I felt that he was avoiding me, and his suspicious behavior was understandable if he were a demon.

“…Eclin. Please tell us everything you know about ‘Delion’, the vice-captain of the Golden Lion Knights. According to Jeto’s information, he is presumed to be a demon. If that’s true, an urgent investigation is needed. “

“Delion…?! The vice-captain of the demon catching knights is a demon… does that make sense?”

“…”

Let’s look at the curious Ecclin indifferently, and soon she notices.

As Ecclin thinks…

…Everything Jetto said was the truth. Unless the testimony was false, an investigation was necessary.

“They said it would be very difficult to catch because he is so thorough. As his identity is his identity, I think the investigation should be conducted in secret. Let’s avoid unnecessary conflicts.”

Delion.

If he really is a demon, I will lower the mace of the main god directly with my hand.

If this can alleviate even a little the harshness of Zeto’s fate…

I would be happy to do so.
