I Became a Blind Swordsman at the Academy chapter 182

182. Death and those left behind (Complete)

182. Death and those left behind (complete)

Jetto, who was lying with his eyes closed, stopped looking at me. He couldn’t turn his head.

I probably won’t wake up anymore.

When I first heard the news, of course I denied it.

There’s no way Zeto will die.

That’s right, Zeto is strong.

But after seeing Zeto’s dead body with his own two eyes, he quickly admitted it.

Jetto is dead.

It is not strange when a person dies.

If there is life, there is also death.

Death is very far, yet very near.

I’ve seen countless people bleeding and breathing their last breath.

It’s just that each person’s time is different, and human death is natural.

“Where are you going?”

I heard a man’s voice in front of the road.

When I look up, I see a familiar face.

“……”

It was Class C’s instructor, Kaliman.

Only Kali, sheltering from the rain in the shade of a tree, scratches her head before opening her mouth.

“I’m sorry, but I’m not allowed to go out for the time being.”

“No permission required.”

“It is even more forbidden to go out without permission.”

I pulled out the sword from my waist at Kaliman’s firm answer.

“Please don’t stop me.”

“Your friend died. What are you doing outside at this time?”

“…Not because of that.”

Yes.

It has nothing to do with Zeto’s death.

It just felt like the world was unfair.

There is too much trash in this world.

Jetto ended his life in such a futile way, it was just unacceptable for such scum to breathe and live another day.

A hero who saves people dies painfully, and a villain who harms people lives without worry.

I didn’t want Jeto to be unfair.

So, isn’t it okay to reduce the number of garbage?

However, Kaliman did not seem to have any intention of backing down.

Only Kali, who has raised her stumped body, stands in my way.

“I’m sorry, but since I’m living on a salary… I have to work.”

“……”

“At least as long as I’m holding this position, going outside is after defeating me.”

“…I will not treat you as an instructor.”

“Ha, I’ve been living and listening to such words from a young guy for a long time.”

Only Kali, who clenched her fists, released mana.

ㅡQuad Deuk!!!

The pressure of mana splits the area around the land mass he was standing on.

“…”

Extremely intimidating.

I heard that he was a war hero, but he was a much more ruthless monster than I thought.

Only Kali, who had been repeatedly opening and closing his hand, opened his mouth.

“Well, it’s an instructor’s job to take on the student’s anger…”

***

“…”

I looked into the crystal ball he was holding in his hand.

The crystal ball still had no reaction.

Because I had an uneasy feeling, I kept sending signals, but Zeto didn’t contact me.

At first, I thought he was busy.

However, as his silence continued, the anxiety in the corner of his mind inflated its size.

I don’t think anything happened.

Nothing should have happened.

Because I was nervous, I even asked for information about Zeto at the academy.

It’s just that I haven’t been in touch for a while.

It was just something that could happen due to normal busyness or mistakes.

Nevertheless, the anxiety did not intend to subside at all.

This feeling was so strange.

That’s what Ecklin did.

What are you so worried about?

I couldn’t answer that question.

Maybe my answer will become a reality.

I was that anxious.

No matter how well I put it, I was never in a normal state.

I hoped it was my excessive obsession.

I hoped it was a side effect of getting closer to him.

I turned my head and looked out the window.

It was raining under the dark clouds.

A gloomy sky.

There was nothing special about me.

It was around the time I was watching the rain fall in a daze.

ㅡKikkiik.

Ecclin, unknown when he arrived, opens the door and enters.

“…Saint.”

Did I bring the news of Zeto?

“As expected, nothing happened…?”

I asked with a bitter smile.

“…”

Ecklin’s mouth fell shut and she averted my gaze.

“Ecclin…?”

Please don’t make that face and answer me.

Nothing happened.

Why did you hang yourself like that?

That my condition had become strange for a while.

Scold me to get my head together.

“……”

Ecklen couldn’t open her mouth despite my calling.

I went over to her and grabbed her by the shoulder.

“Ecclin.”

“…”

“Nothing happened?”

I could feel it vaguely even as I asked.

I could tell just by looking at Ecklen’s expression.

“Has he been seriously hurt? It’s okay. I’ll treat him.”

“…Saint.”

“Or maybe the curse has become serious. I can do Haeju. Even if I have to go against the order of the main god…”

“…Saint.”

“…”

Please don’t tell me.

Please don’t open that mouth.

Please don’t spread the news.

That’s strange.

There was no news.

One morning he…

“Honorary Templar Jeto…”

…There’s no way he died.

“…Is said to have died.”

“…Is that a lie?”

At my question, Echlin lowers her head.

“Echlin, that can’t be.”

I was spouting the truth.

I was seriously denying it.

But that was short-lived.

“……”

I couldn’t speak anymore.

That’s right, it was because I was able to notice it with the Authority.

That Ecklen is not lying.

Soon she opens her mouth and lets out her words.

I had to cover my ears.

I didn’t want to hear it.

I wanted to deny the truth.

I hoped it was a lie.

Hopefully I’ve gone mad for a while.

But that wasn’t the case.

The grounds for the anxiety I felt inside came to life.

There is no firmer basis than this, that it is the power of God.

I stopped plugging my ears.

Because I realized that there was no meaning.

Even if you deny it, the truth won’t change.

“…I’m sorry to inform you of this news, saintess.”

Ecklen lowers her head, letting her tears fall.

I lifted her staggering body and held her.

He stroked his back.

“It’s okay… Echlin did nothing wrong.”

Because I was the guilty one.

I could have stopped him.

I could do anything to ease his pain.

However, he did not disobey the chieftain’s order.

It’s because I thought there must be a meaning.

In the end, the saintess is only an apostle of the main god.

She is just trying to lead the world according to the Lord’s will.

Just…

…It’s just that I didn’t have my happiness at the end.

Not all saints and saints can live a happy life just because they are loved by the Lord God.

Everyone living in the world lives with their own destiny.

You can’t go against that fate.

Zetto’s death is also due to his fate.

My loss of him was also due to my fate.

But… On the one hand, I felt that way.

I resent the Lord who led me to such a harsh fate.

For the first time in my life.

I resented God.

***

“Ha ha… Ha ha…”

I felt like my body was about to break.

My grandfather was right.

I’m rusty.

My skills are rusty as well, but I didn’t think I would ever be able to defeat that ‘fierce tiger’ in front of me.

A seasoned martial artist who has passed through countless battlefields.

I could never catch up with him in terms of experience.

Anyway, I was weak. Was incompetent

My body was losing strength from the weakness I felt so painfully.

Soon, Kaliman’s voice is heard from the forest where the rain was pouring down.

“…I’ll stop at this point.”

“More… You can…”

“I understand your heart, but… This is the wrong way.”

“Haa… Haa… Instructor understands something…”

“Yeah… I lost it too…”

Kaliman pauses at the end of his words and raises his head to look at the sky.

War Hero.

Because I went through the war… Of course, I must have lost friends and colleagues.

But Jetto was not just an ordinary friend to me.

Jetto shined.

He was affectionate and kind.

He was my hero.

But how did he change his mind…

“…A lover.”

After that, Kaliman approached me.

…It was the first time I had heard of the loss of a lover.

“It was Castile. Her name was… A charming woman with green eyes like jewels. Her friends were in a frenzy. How could you get along with Castile… I still don’t know the answer.”

As my body lost strength, only Kali in front of me hugged me.

“I was even engaged. But… As you know, the war broke out just in time. I had no intention of participating in the war. That’s why war is scary, isn’t it? Now that I have someone to protect, I was more afraid.”

“……”

From noble mtl dot com

I took Kaliman’s arms and listened to his voice.

“But Castile asked me to go with him. Shouldn’t we defend the land we will share our love with our own hands… They said there was no way… That’s why we went to war. Many died. Friends and comrades. I took it for granted… even the soldiers I didn’t know the names of. That’s how war is supposed to be.”

“Aww…”

Kaliman’s blunt voice conveyed his pain.

“…It was one day. It was a rainy day like now. The smell of wet rain and the blood of demons… It was a very pleasant day. After completing the operation like that and going back to the base, Reina looked serious. He came up to me and said. I laughed. What are you talking about?”

“Huh… Uhhh…”

At last, the tears I had been holding back burst out.

He shook his head vigorously.

I didn’t want to hear it.

Because I think I know very well what the end will be like.

“There have been many deaths so far, but I couldn’t accept her death. It was unfair and resentful. I couldn’t understand why she had to die.”

Kaliman strokes my hair.

“I’m sure you did…”

His hands felt cold through the rain.

“I was furious. I wanted to wipe out the demons at random. Nevertheless, there was only one reason I was able to survive until now. I was about to jump into the enemy camp alone… Because Reina and Edward stopped me. Reina said. Shouldn’t you survive? Shouldn’t you also survive and remember her…”

“aaa…”

I didn’t want to cry, I didn’t want to be sad, but the tears wouldn’t stop.

“That’s why I had to stop you. I wondered if you should survive and remember him… I guess after living, I know, those left behind have things they have to do…”

Soon Kaliman asks me.

“Did you tell me? Your heart…”

In his arms, I shook my head.

I couldn’t tell you.

I couldn’t confess my feelings.

I thought I could barely hold onto it now.

I thought I would finally have the courage to speak.

It was no longer possible.

Soon, between Kaliman’s hands stroking my hair, a hot drop of water, not a cold raindrop, falls.

“…Then you must be in a lot more pain than me…”

There was a slight tremor in Kaliman’s voice as he spoke those words.
