I Became a Blind Swordsman at the Academy chapter 161



161. I can’t stand being stuffy! (5)

‘You and I are compatible…?’

I was sitting on a luxurious sofa in the corner of the hall of the grand mansion, and I was reflecting on the words of the dragon Zeto introduced me, Daedroth.

Connection… solidarity… These were difficult words to understand, but in a nutshell, it was that me and the red dragon inside the orb got along well.

I honestly wanted to deny it.

Since he met me, he had been pouring out vulgar words.

So calmly waited for Daedroth.

The guy’s voice in his head had long since stopped, so the conversation seemed to be going well.

But as I was wiggling my hair, I felt uneasy.

It was because I was worried that he might have made strange noises to Daedroth as well.

It was then.

ㅡ bang!!

From the room where the Daedroth entered, the sound of furious hitting the desk was heard.

“…I wonder if I’m angry.”

Jeto reacted to this.

He tilted his head and thought it was strange, saying that this was the first time he had ever seen an angry Daedroth.

It’s something that makes a dragon that doesn’t get angry easily get angry. Maybe the Orb guy was talking nonsense.

For some reason, it was clearly drawn in my eyes.

“…can you hear what they’re talking about?”

I looked at Jeto quietly and asked.

If I could overhear the contents of the conversation, wouldn’t I be branded as a strange woman?

They told him it was normal small talk, but it wasn’t normal.

Well, it can’t be said that the dragon poured out obscene rumors.

“I can hear it. But I don’t know what they’re talking about because they speak the language of dragons.”

“…I see.”

thank god.

It’s fortunate, but anyway, it was that Daedroth was angry, and it bothered me that the conversation was a little longer.

Soon, Jeto, who was sitting next to me, turned his head to me and opened his mouth.

“What kind of dragon was that?”

“What kind of dragon are you?”

“You’ve already had a conversation. I was curious about what kind of dragon it was.”

“Uh, uh…”

It’s a difficult question, so I had to roll my eyes.

No, it’s not a difficult question to answer, but I was worried about what to pack the perverted lizard.

“That…was it just a dragon overflowing with desire…?”

“What was your desire?”

“Rice, it wasn’t a big deal. It’s just normal… yeah…”

Even as I said that, I wanted to sigh at my excuse.

A dragon’s desire can’t be ordinary.

Because the scale will be different from that of humans.

“It’s normal… I don’t think the red dragon has a kind heart, so it seems that he asked for something quite difficult.”

Jetto took care of my answer and easily interpreted it. It was correct.

“It was difficult, but…”

“For example world domination?”

Jetto joked in a voice full of laughter.

“…Do you feel that way?”

I couldn’t help but laugh

Even if it wasn’t world conquest, it was because I wanted to conquer Zeto.

If conquering the world is about eating the ground, then he wanted to ‘eat’ Zeto.

‘Eat it…’

It was such a crude expression that his father might be frightened if he heard it.

Next, Zeto said, ‘World domination.’ Don’t mumble and drool.

“May I help you?”

He asked me in a very serious voice.

“no…”

Because it doesn’t have to be that serious.

It’s just that I can’t say that the guy’s request is ‘f*ck off my stomach’.

Silence soon passed between Zeto and me.

Deedros seldom thought of returning.

I didn’t know the details of the guy’s identity, so I couldn’t even guess what they were talking about.

“…Miss Yuri, why do you want to become stronger?”

Jeto’s question continued quietly after breaking the silence.

why do you want to be strong

It was a question that made me think a lot.

When I was younger, I had to be strong because I had to.

Because she was the daughter of the Clementine family.

I became stronger to repay people’s expectations.

I didn’t think much of it until I entered the academy.

I thought that I had become strong enough, that I would just step on the solid road and flow as I thought.

But did they say the world is wide?

I never thought I would meet people stronger than me at my age.

People who are not just strong enough to win once in Dalian, but strong enough to be difficult to follow if they don’t fight back.

Eisel has been applied several times and I have seen the results, so there is nothing more to say.

Jetto was also much stronger than me.

To be precise, he grew so fast that he surpassed me.

“…I thought I was falling behind.”

“Are you falling behind?”

“Zetto and Aisel. Everyone feels desperate without knowing something.

Because I have someone I want to protect more than anything else.

I hope he doesn’t overdo it.

I feel like I’ll miss him if I stay still.

I was anxious.

“…I don’t think there is any need to feel impatient.”

“You don’t think the person who forced himself to spurt blood said anything?”

“hahahaha…”

Zeto scratched his head, probably embarrassed.

Come to think of it, the fact that Zeto didn’t bleed often recently seemed to be much better.

Did the nutritional supplement work?

around the time you think about it.

A small amount of blood dripped from Zeto’s mouth.

“…”

…wasn’t that the case?

I naturally wiped the blood that flowed down Jetto’s mouth and opened my mouth.

“…Anyway, thank you for giving me the orb.”

“It was such a delicious dish. It gave me energy… Anyway, the orb was something I didn’t really need, so there’s no need to feel pressured.”

“…”

Instead of smiling happily, I suddenly had a question.

“…But why was it me? Is there Eisel as well? It’s not like I had to give you an orb in return for cooking… It wasn’t a dish you asked for in return… It was a precious thing like an orb for cooking in the first place. Isn’t it strange to give

Looking back now, it was very strange.

I’m grateful, but should I say that his behavior doesn’t make sense?

“Why was Miss Yuri…”

“Because he’s a precious person? Then isn’t Eisel precious?”

“…not really like that.”

Then it is.

Jeto is friendly and kind to everyone.

That’s not too bad, but at some point I’ve been wanting a difference with Jetto.

I wanted to set myself apart from others.

But what if there was already a difference?

Eisel had never received anything like this from Jeto.

The answer to the question could be known in one word of the following Jeto.

“Then let’s do this. As a present for someone you like.”

“…what?”

“Isn’t it strange to give a present to someone you like?”

“No, it is, but…”

What are you talking about?

So you gave me the orb because you like me?

“……”

My hair went white and I couldn’t speak.

The corners of Jeto’s lips slowly rose.

I couldn’t tell if it was serious or a joke.

At that time, when no one said anything.

“…Sorry to keep you waiting.”

Daedroth appeared from the other side holding an orb.

“Uh, how was it?”

I jumped off the sofa to erase the awkward atmosphere that was swirling between Jetto and me.

“That… He said he would tell me his true name.”

It was good news, but the face of Daedroth was full of shadows.

For some reason, I thought I knew why.

I wondered if he was a dragon mad enough to spit out strange noises even to his own kind, but I guess that was exactly the case.

Daedroth, who sat down, managed to hold back a sigh before opening his mouth.

“Yuri-chan, are you really okay? Dragons are very difficult to control. One True Name doesn’t solve everything. If anything, you can just throw them in my warehouse…”

Dedros had a stark contrast in reaction before and after the conversation.

“…It’s okay. If you can be strong, you can handle it.”

I nodded and expressed my enthusiasm.

Even though he’s a strange guy, the fact that he’s a dragon doesn’t change.

And I need strength.

So there are no other options.

“Hmm… If that’s your opinion. Anyway, it’s Miss Yuri’s property, so I won’t stop it.”

The Daedroth seemed reluctant, but he tapped the orb and the orb glowed.

Soon, Orb’s voice is heard.

[Haam… Owner, how are you? I guess I miss you even though I haven’t seen you for a few minutes. It was almost broken. ]

An Orb that calmly yawns.

Rather than that, it almost broke… I was worried that I might have disrespected Daedroth.

“Can I talk to this kid for a minute?”

I asked cautiously, wondering if it would seem strange to have a conversation with the orb since the others would not be able to hear the orb’s voice.

“Not really a child, but it doesn’t matter.”

“I don’t mind either. Even though I’m not a child anyway.”

“Oh, I don’t know what to call it yet…”

You can’t use a title that’s quite contemptuous, like ‘guy’.

If it was a Daedroth who seemed to have learned his true nature, it would be impossible, but it was impossible in front of Jeto.

[Please call me ‘Beno’. ]

In the meantime, Orb interrupted the conversation and gave his name.

beno.

I thought it was a pretty cute name.

“That…isn’t it your true name?”

I frowned and looked at Beno and Orb.

[Is that your true name? A few letters were missing at the end. ]

“Wouldn’t you like a safer name?”

[Calling him Beno would be helpful for solidarity. ]

“Well, if that’s the case…”

After a brief conversation, Daedroth explained the process of signing a contract.

In summary, after Benno said he would serve me, I would recite her true name and say that I would accept her, and then I would be able to use her power, Daedroth explained.

From noble mtl dot com.

She… Yes.

Beno was a female.

Well, I could have guessed from the voice or strangely aiming for Zeto… but Daedroth confirmed it.

In any case, the stronger the bond with Beno becomes, the more fully he will be able to use her power.

“What do I need to do to make the bond stronger?”

“If you grant her needs or fulfill her wishes, the bond will become even stronger. There is no such thing as a contract with a dragon in the first place. She just made the structure of the orb that way. However, the stronger the bond, the more power you can use. But keep in mind that the impact is unavoidable.”

Deedros kindly explained, but asked me if he couldn’t get rid of his worries.

I wasn’t without worries either.

Because it was clear in my head what this perverted lizard wanted.
