I Became a Blind Swordsman at the Academy chapter 175

175. Showdown (2)

175. Showdown (2)

A girl standing over a pool of blood in the center of the altar.

Her hair was platinum blonde, just like the people around her who had collapsed while bleeding.

She was ordered to exterminate the clan, but when she arrived, only a young girl was left of the clan.

She thrust a knife into the girl’s throat, and drops of blood flowed down her throat, but she didn’t change her eyes.

‘What’s your name?’

‘Eisel… Eisel Ludwig.”

The girl’s eyes, which opened her tightly closed lips, contained a void that was not suitable for her age and which did not know the depth.

That was the first meeting with Eisel Ludwig, the legacy left by the Ludwig family that said they could handle time.

At first, I was curious.

It was clear that a ceremony was being held at the altar.

What did they leave behind for this girl?

Couldn’t she use that power?

She says she controls time, so I wonder if I can make that power mine.

He disobeyed the command of the corps commander who ordered the annihilation of all, old and new, to completely erase the existence of ‘Ludwig’ from this world.

My subordinates and I started studying Eisel.

Unfortunately, no significant results were achieved.

The only thing she knew was that Eisel could handle mana and her elemental magic normally, unlike her other Lüdwigs.

It was far from the power to handle the time I was hoping for.

She had no idea how to deal with it, even if she had that kind of power. All the other Ludwigs who were originally supposed to teach her the method had died.

I didn’t have much time.

Before the war, she had to return to the corps commander.

By the time she was thinking about whether or not she should give up.

Eisel managed her escape.

But it wasn’t too difficult to keep up with the little girl with her short stride.

Let’s end everything at this point.

Let’s do something that didn’t exist.

With that thought in mind, she pursued Eisel.

However, Eisel fell off the cliff before she could catch her.

She thought she was dead.

She said that the little girl had fallen off a cliff from this height and that she would have no way to survive.

She thought so.

After that, she returned to the corps commander carrying the heads of the Ludwig clan.

Although they couldn’t take care of the young girl’s neck, which was their legacy, there was no way even the corps commander knew about it.

With that, I won the favor of the corps commander.

It was only natural that he had returned with the heads of all members of the Ludwig clan, who were said to be hard to find, and had completed a mission that seemed close to impossible.

The corps commander also sent it just in case, but he didn’t know that he would come with their heads.

As I found out later, we weren’t the only ones who received that mission.

‘There’s probably not even a small ember left.’

The corps commander, who was raising his lips in satisfaction, asked me.

I bowed my head and answered.

‘…Yes, Commander. The Ludwig clan no longer exists in this world.’

At that time, I firmly believed.

I didn’t know at the time.

Curiosity towards the legacy of the Ludwig family.

That little greed to take Ludwig’s power.

I don’t think it will come back with a result like this.

“Kwaaah!!!”

A sharp scream from the forest pierced my ears.

At that scream, I saw a man wearing a white bandage around his eyes in the distance.

While holding a red-edged sword in reverse, he jumped alone in the middle of the enemy camp and was quickly and accurately cutting through demons one after another.

“What kind of power is that…”

Albed, who was watching the battle of the blind, frowned with a panicked voice.

It made sense.

Because even I couldn’t figure out what that power really was.

ㅡ Creepy!!

The blind man cuts down enemies who attack him and immediately hides himself in the ground.

“He disappeared!!”

The blind man who had disappeared from sight appeared behind the demon he was shouting.

ㅡ Fuuk!!

Shortly, the chest of the demon, who had not noticed it, was pierced.

“Hey…!”

The blind man was quite adept at one-on-one combat.

Is it using shadows…?

It’s not a power that humans can handle, but it wasn’t a demon.

“…Do, let’s run away!”

A few demons lost their will to fight at the sight of their comrades being slaughtered so easily, and chose to run away.

“These bastards…!”

Albed tried to use his power, but before he could, the bodies of the demons who disappeared into the forest were cut off.

“Whoa…”

I was slightly impressed.

“… ‘Thread’.”

I squinted my eyes and said, bouncing the thread in front of my nose.

Looking closely, there were thin threads spread wide like a spider’s web between the trees, blocking the movement of the demons.

Precisely, it seemed to be blocking the approach of Albed and me.

You can’t block my approach with something like this, but… Are you asking me not to step out right now?

“……”

I put on a soft smile.

He was an interesting guy.

As he introduced, there’s no way he’s just an ‘ordinary’ blind man passing by.

“He must be an assistant.”

I turned my head and looked at Albed who was next to me.

“A helper…? Eisel’s?”

“Other than that, what else would he have to stop us? It feels odd that he didn’t come with Eisel…”

I stopped talking and realized his intentions.

A barrier that surrounds the forest.

I can feel the divine power weakly, but as he said, it wasn’t a barrier to block me.

I’ve been feeling deaf since a while ago.

In other words, a barrier for soundproofing.

And the current location of Eisel.

His intentions were clearly visible.

At this, I raised the corner of my mouth.

‘Are you trying to protect… Eisel?’

A helper who went out alone to protect Eisel.

Did you say Zagoras was dead to her saintess?

Then I guessed to some extent the source of the barrier containing this divine power.

I had a hunch.

That guy was clear.

To be Eisel’s ‘assistant’ who has been planning everything so far.

I’ll hang out with you.

I don’t know what kind of relationship you have with Eisel, or how much you know, but I’ll go find you, holding your neck.

Despair.

I’ll give you an extremely cruel despair.

From noble mtl dot com.

I wanted to see you again.

Aisel’s empty eyes.

As soon as the number of demons rapidly decreased due to being swept away by his sword, Al Bed used his hand in no time.

He started to lead the demons using the power of domination.

The demons, who were just swept by the flow of the guy, straighten their display.

“Albed, you won’t be able to even aim for his head with your ponytails anyway. I will use the Drakkir. Become a shield.”

“Yes.”

Al Bed gave a short answer and lowered his head.

I raised a finger and gave orders to the Drakkir who were hiding in the dark.

Bring me the blind man’s head.

Are you still hiding it?

Now, reveal it.

All of you.

***

“Puhak…!!”

The demon, whose throat was deeply cut, slumped to the ground, gushing blood.

ㅡ Chuck!

I wiped off the blood on the ‘Sierra’ and looked around while regulating my breathing.

‘The atmosphere… Has changed.’

I saw Murka on the other side, who hadn’t made any movement yet.

Albed, who was next to him, naturally showed his horns while using his demonic energy, but Murka still hadn’t revealed his horns.

He was watching me quietly.

You were analyzing me.

Murka would have made that choice.

He craves power.

I don’t know if there’s a demon like that… Because he’s much worse.

If you see a new power, you can’t just pass it by.

Analyze and take.

That’s Murka’s way.

Moreover, he is very good at learning. A class that can be called a ‘genius’ among the demons.

The more you battle, the more he understands and learns and becomes stronger.

In that sense, I thought that my presence would stimulate his curiosity and keep him on his toes.

‘Well, this time, that guy’s desire for knowledge will be a noose that will choke him.’

The moment I was thinking about that, the water sprayers that were being sensed by my psyche moved their feet.

Is ‘Drakkir’ already stepping out?

“”……””

Asmodians who were manipulated by Albed and at a certain point, the number of words decreased.

I’ve cut quite a bit, but there are still dozens of people left.

Are they planning a joint attack?

‘…Maybe I should use it this time.’

Reverse Heaven.

I needed to hide my strength as much as possible until I faced Murka, so I made that decision.

Drakkir.

Faceless watering.

These are the ones you will definitely encounter when dealing with Murka.

Drakkir are not ordinary assassins skilled in assassination.

They are a kind of killing machines and consumables who have been thoroughly trained from an early age and have removed their emotions.

Guys have no fear.

There is no instinctive fear by death.

Those who want to thoroughly decapitate the enemy move as if they are one body and unleash a vicious series of blows at the risk of death.

Even if an arm is severed or a leg is cut, after firmly tying the enemy’s movements, he brings the enemy’s neck.

For that reason, there is such a saying among the demons.

If there are more than three drak kir trying to take your head, don’t even think about getting him out alive.

Right now, that number is five.

Soon, the Drakkir who lurked in the darkness formed a formation.

As a bonus, Albed’s henchmen, who had tidied up the display, were slowly enveloping me.

‘I have to deal with dozens of demons who don’t regret their lives at the same time…’

Anyway, since I was thinking of a short fight, I had to quickly thrust the sword into Murka’s neck.

“…”

I retrieved the thread of Arachne, which was spread throughout the forest and kept taut, with my hand.

From now on, it’s going to hinder my movements.

[ …Comes. ]

Then, Sierra’s voice, which was also aware of Drakkir’s movements, echoed in her head.

Albed’s henchmen charged at me all at once.

Only then did the Drakkir emerge from the darkness and hide among the demons, approaching me at high speed.

I thought as I squeezed my strength into the hand that was holding the sword.

‘After the sheep hunt… Immediately cut Murka’s head.’

Previously, through Edward’s fantasy, I realized something while going through the battle with Murka in advance.

All the corpses and weapons in the vicinity become Murka’s shield and weapon that deals with telekinesis magic.

Swallowing it with a shady would be one way to deal with it, but it would take just as much time and concentration.

‘So…’

Move as I please, Murka.

***

The demons rushed at Zeto at the same time as if they were one body, and he also attacked.

There was no sound of shouting there.

Only the unpleasant sound of flesh being cut echoed through the forest.

In time, Drakkir’s dagger enters Jeto, who was easily cutting through the demons controlled by Albed.

ㅡChaeng!!!

Zetto subtly knocked off one of the Drakkir daggers that came forward.

I thought I had simply knocked it off, but the blade of the dagger shattered and flew off, crashing into a tree on the other side.

Is it a coincidence that he broke the dagger with a single swing? Murka wondered why Jeto hadn’t cut down Drakkir.

Obviously, there was a gap where the subtly advanced guy could be cut down.

But Jetto didn’t cut him down.

‘I wonder if I instinctively realized that I was an extrovert.’

Murka thought so, but in reality it was like this.

The movement Zeto showed just now was the movement caused by the red line he could see.

The red line on Drakkir’s body, that is, the weakness, was cut in the middle.

If this had been ignored and Zeto thrust his sword into Drakkir’s body, Drakkir would have snatched Zeto’s sword and tied his sword in the middle of the cut.

And after that, Jeto’s throat must have been cut by the remaining four attacks.

Lose your only sword, or lose your head.

Either way you choose, the result is death.

In other words, it was death.

As expected, the daggers of the other four Drakkir sprang out from all sides and aimed at Jeto’s neck.

The sharpened dagger of the Drakkir that was thrust right into Zeto’s throat.

ㅡKaang!!!

However, Zeto lowered his posture before he knew it and swung his sword gracefully to break their daggers.

“Hmm…?”

Murka let out a questioning drool.

For a moment, it was because I missed his movements.

‘When the hell did he lower his posture…’

Amazingly nimble speed.

Are you the guy who handles quick swords?

Even if the Drakkir’s daggers were broken, it didn’t matter much since there were many bladers without owners around them… But the quick sword, which surpassed even the Drakkir’s perception, was a different story.

Murka, who made such a quick decision, opened her mouth to Albed.

“Tie his feet.”

Albed bowed his head at this and immediately gave an order to the demons.

ㅡSuddenly!

ㅡ Creepy!!

The demons continued to push their bodies in spite of Zeto’s sword cutting their throats.

At this, Jeto tried to wield the extended sword, but because there were too many of them, it wasn’t long before his sword was tied to Drakkir’s body.

“…Kkeuk…”

Despite his throat being cut halfway, Drakkir’s stiff back straightened him and he desperately grabbed Zeto’s sword as it passed his throat.

“… Gurgling.”

The faceless killer, whose entire face was covered with worn-out bandages, smiled madly at the thought of completing his mission.

ㅡ Kkudeuk…

ㅡ Kkudeudeug…

The demons and Drakkir who attacked Zeto as if a rough wave soon rushed in and surrounded him from all sides.

Zeto was eventually trapped in the flesh of the demons.

“It’s a pity that I can’t lift my head… But I can’t help it.”

Jet-black horns appear on Murka’s forehead as he chanted.

A strange swordsmanship that cuts through armor and daggers with a single knife.

A speed that surpasses the awareness of the Drakkirs.

It’s amazing, but if that’s all you have, die now.

It was the moment when Murka, touched by such a thought, was about to cast a spiral while clutching her hands that gathered magic energy.

Now, if Murka just twists his hand, Zeto’s body will be twisted beyond recognition along with his demons.

On the other hand, Zeto, who was trapped in a mass of flesh with his sword tied, smiled quietly.

Everything was going the way he intended.

Of course, this was covered by the flesh of the demons and did not reach Murka, who was on the other side.

‘Are you laughing…?’

Albedman, who shared his sights with the demons who were imprisoning him, was able to confirm this.

“Mr. Murka… Something… Something is strange…!!”

A sudden cry from Albed.

Murka tilted his head.

Just as he confirmed, Zeto’s sword was still clung to Drakkir’s neck. Not just one neck, but the rest of the Drakkir held his sword tightly.

‘What more can a swordsman who can’t wield a sword devise…’

Murka cast the helix, leaving the doubts running through his head behind.

It was a fleeting moment.

“I…”

Murka opens his mouth and his wrist slowly rotates.

Following his fingers, the whole area where Jeto was was twisting into a whole lump of land.

At the same time.

ㅡQuad Deuk!!!!!!

A strange sound resonates between the gaps in the flesh of the demons in the place where Murka’s psychokinesis magic, Spiral, was headed.

The clear, sharp sound of flesh cracking and splitting.

Obviously Zeto’s sword was still tied up by the Drakkir… But dozens of red swords of unknown origin surged through the cracks in the flesh of the demons.

“…Line.”

Murka, who had squinted his eyes, finished quickly.

Did he reveal his strength only at the end?

It’s hard to understand causality… It’s an unfamiliar power, but that’s over.

Murka thought so, but that thought didn’t last long either.

“…”

In the liquid that flowed between the flesh distorted by psychosomatic magic… As for the red fresh blood, it was because human blood was not visible.

‘Has it escaped… Through that gap?’

Then… Where is he?

Around the time Murka had such a question.

A sudden flash of light.

In the dark forest, a bright light flashed that made me frown.

‘Thunderbolt…?’

From noble mtl dot com.

Lightning fell out of nowhere in the area swept by the spiral.

At the same time, Murka’s gaze was taken away.

Jetto appeared.

Zeto jumped up from near Murka.

ㅡKeying!

A pure white light shimmered in the red sword he was holding in reverse.

ㅡQuarreung!!!!!

Then followed by the deafening sound of lightning.

“Just die, Murka.”

Zetto’s sword falls towards Murka’s neck.
