I Became a Blind Swordsman at the Academy chapter 193

193. Karma – Part 2 Prologue –

As I passed through the dark aisle, I hummed his hum.

Because my happiness and my joy were right behind this iron gate.

ㅡKikkiik.

While I was opening the iron door, I felt a tingling sensation.

Following the eye is the silky hair that droops along the head, and a white bandage like a symbol.

“Ah…”

Ecstasy surrounds me.

No more annoying ‘blockers’.

In front of my eyes was a ‘paradise’ just for the two of us.

Even those who return from paradise will not escape this paradise.

“…Miss Izel…”

He sighs with difficulty.

“Jetto, are you awake?”

I bowed my head and responded with a smile.

Soon the chains collide and a clanking sound is heard. Jetto, who was sitting in a chair, had his arms tied behind his back.

“This is…”

“It’s better to stay calm. If you try to loosen it, you’ll tighten it even harder and break your arm.”

I knew right away that his prosthetic arm was different from a normal one, so I needed something special to hold him in place.

“It was Miss Eisel who stole the ‘Conqueror’s Knot’ in the East.”

Zeto immediately guesses the identity of the object.

The Conqueror’s Knot.

It was a chain containing the legend that if you untie it, you can become the king of the East.

The chain contains mystical power, and it will never be broken unless one has the qualifications of a king.

The funny thing is that there have been many kings in the East, but no king of any country has been able to untie this knot.

Although I did not untie the knot in a normal way, I was able to successfully snatch it.

But what if you know about knots?

It’s already too late.

There is no way for Zeto to break these chains.

There was no way he would get out of my arms.

“I’m sorry…? But if I don’t do this, Zeto will leave my arms again.”

I stroked his cheek.

“I can’t escape.”

His breath touches his face.

“Accept.”

Jeto struggles to raise the corner of his mouth.

“Zetto was meant to be like this with me.”

In an instant, the faces of the intruders pass through my head. Just thinking about it made anger boil.

“It’s all ‘those girls’ fault that my property came to be like this. Those b*tches who don’t even know the subject and want to take my property…”

“……”

Jetto removes his head and escapes my reach.

“Haa… I’m sorry, Zeto. I’ve been acting mean for a while.”

Unfortunately, Zeto hasn’t come to his senses yet.

When I curse at them, they react like that, as if they feel rejected.

I couldn’t get out of the brainwashing of the heinous saboteurs.

But there is no problem.

If you stay here with me, you’ll find out right away.

Jetto is my own.

I am Zeto’s own.

That we were always connected.

“…Jetto, are you hungry?”

I held the bowl in one hand and put it in front of his nose.

“Today is fried rice.

“……”

Jetto did not answer.

I wonder if I am tired.

But I couldn’t help it.

The only way to make him lose his mind was to use lightning magic.

That’s right, secretly drinking like before doesn’t work anymore.

There were several attempts, but this one had to be considered the closest to perfect success.

Now I had no back.

So don’t give up.

A secret hiding place that is not easily found.

A knot that can never be untied.

The results obtained after hard work were in front of my eyes.

It was when I was so ecstatic that I was soaked in joy.

Soon, the prosthetic arm on his left side clatters and the sound of metal clashing is heard.

“…Zeto?”

A voice filled with questions echoes through the room, and at the same time, a large amount of white smoke comes out of his prosthetic arm.

What else are you up to?

Are you trying to get out of my arms again?

I hurriedly put the bowl down on the floor and distanced myself from the unknown smoke.

I was properly holding my breath.

Nevertheless, my vision keeps getting blurry.

ㅡ Fluffy.

Soon after, all the strength flowed out of my body.

I fell to the floor and caught Jetto’s image in my eyes even as I closed my eyes.

I reached out to him with all my might.

I couldn’t reach it.

I couldn’t reach it.

***

“…Ugh.”

I barely came to my senses.

On the other side, I could see Eisel, who had collapsed on the floor and was not waking up.

My head was dizzy.

It seemed that the aftermath of the sleeping gas was still lingering on his body.

I tried to raise my body naturally.

ㅡCheolgeureong!

The sound of chains echoes in my ears.

‘Come to think of it, I was tied up…’

Is it called the Conqueror’s Knot?

Anyway, Eisel seemed to have put a lot of effort into keeping me in this ‘cage’.

“The king commands, O knot, reap its power.”

With my voice resounding in the room, the chain that had been tightening my wrist loosens and falls to the floor.

From noble mtl dot com

Only then, freed from the restraints, I stood up from the chair and twirled my throbbing wrists.

The Conqueror’s Knot.

A chain that is said to be released only by those who have the qualifications of a true king of the East.

The chain is well known as a knot that does not break even with superhuman strength, withstands any impact, and cannot be untied even if all scholars on the continent wrap their heads together.

Even Eisel, who knows me well, would not have expected this.

That the Conqueror’s Knot was an object that was connected to my ‘previous life’.

‘By the way, how did Eisel steal this?’

It was to the point where I had such doubts.

“Confiscation of dangerous items.”

I picked up the conquistador’s knot from the floor and put it straight into the subspace pouch.

With my hand in my subspace pocket, I took out the communicator and put it in my ear.

After tapping the small communicator, the communication was connected with a crackling noise.

“Zepetti, can you hear me?”

After a while, Zeppetti’s voice comes through the communicator.

[ Mr. Jeto, you seem to have come to your senses. ]

“I woke up… But what if the sleeping gas got into me too?”

[ You were able to wake up thanks to the inhibitor, so that’s okay. The headache will be fine in a little while. ]

“Inhibitors? I don’t remember being hit with anything like that…”

[ I pre-administered it while I was sleeping. ]

“……”

Anyway, if you did something like that while sleeping, shouldn’t you at least let me know?

Perhaps the most dangerous is Zepetty.

“Oh, and this time I held my breath and it worked… What happened to that?”

[ I changed the method because it was similar to the last time. To permeate the body through the skin. ]

“…I see.”

After that, I carefully lifted Eisel from the cold floor.

After opening the iron door and passing through the long passage, I saw something like a living room.

Overall, it was a shabby and run-down house.

It is difficult to call it a love house.

Even so, not a speck of dust was visible, and it was well organized. I could see Eisel’s efforts to create a cozy atmosphere in her own way.

I laid Eisel down on a nearby sofa and found a blanket around her and put it on top of her.

“…Jetto…”

Soon, Eisel muttered as he tossed over her body.

“I’ll be back, Miss Eisel.”

I kissed her on the forehead and whispered.

Is the saying that you are most beautiful when you sleep?

As I was about to leave the house, I remembered something I had missed, so I took it, opened the door, and went out.

I saw a dense forest.

Where else is this?

I stood there, staring at the forest, and took a bite of fried rice with the spoon in my hand.

“Hmm… It’s delicious even when it’s cold.”

I heard that my cooking has improved, but it must have been true.

“Zepetti, how’s the situation?”

[ I sent Keraf in advance, but it hasn’t moved since a while ago. Can you feel his aura nearby? ]

I was immediately blown away by Zeppetti’s words. The widespread waves were enough to engulf the entire forest.

“Oh, I can feel it. There it is. But…”

[ Is there something wrong? ]

“…So many uninvited guests.”

[ Haa… You’ve been caught. ]

Zepetti let out a deep sigh.

“What, Keraf…”

[ …Because I’m weak. To the point of absurdity. ]

I smiled lightly at Zeppetti’s answer that followed.

I totally agree with her opinion.

I immediately went to the place where I could feel Keraf’s presence.

After walking for a while, the figure of Keraf, who has been completely chained with his knees on his knees, comes into view.

“My, Mr. Zeto…!!!”

Keraph, who had his head down, spotted me and shouted.

“Keraph.”

At this, I smiled and waved.

“Zetto…! I, Keraf… I’ve been captured…”

“Well, I guess so.”

“Sorry, Zeto…”

“It’s okay. It’s not like you’ve been caught once or twice… It’s normal now, isn’t it?”

I took a bite of the fried rice while saying that as if it was no big deal.

At this, Keraf looked at me blankly and asked.

“By the way… What are you eating…?”

“Fried rice with Miss Eisel’s love.”

“I’m sorry, but you were kidnapped…?”

“Kidnapping… Such a bloody sound… It’s just an ordinary act of affection. Would you like a bite of keraf too? It’s pretty good…”

“…I will politely decline.”

“Sorry. Then those of you…”

I turned the bowl around and asked them who were hiding in the woods.

Soon after deciding that there was no point in hiding anymore, they showed up.

They were familiar faces from the Wolyeonghoe.

“…The Lord is looking for you.”

One of the members of the Wolyeonghoe who appeared behind my back spat that out.

“Is she here by any chance?”

That’s what I asked.

Because ‘she’ doesn’t get caught up in me anymore.

“Hoeju-nim…”

He was speechless.

“…Did you find me?”

Immediately, she appeared behind her without the sound of footsteps or sign and hugged me.

I can’t feel it.

She was the one who came to have some pretty annoying abilities.

In my sight, her pink hair flutters and she kisses my cheek.

“Let’s go back.”

She whispered to me.

“You know there’s no place safer than in my arms, right?”

I asked with a smile at her sweet whisper.

“Wasn’t Miss Kaen supposed to come back?”

“…”

That moment when Kaen’s silence lasted for a moment.

I can hear Zepetty’s voice in my ears.

[ Mr. Jeto… This is not going well. An unidentified entity, feeling a massive energy response, is heading toward Zeto. According to my calculations, this speed is…]

In line with Zeppetti’s voice, ferocious cries echo throughout the forest.

ㅡ Kieeck!!!

[ …There are only dragons. ]

Kaen hears the cries and clicks her tongue.

“It’s a dragon!!”

“That red hair…!”

“Go ahead and protect Hoeju and Zeto!”

In an instant, the forest became chaotic due to the sudden appearance of a dragon.

ㅡKoo Goong…

Within a moment, the dragon that passed over his head with a gale turned sharply and stepped on the ground.

“Zeto—-!!!”

The woman standing on the head of a red dragon with red scales stood out and shouted.

“What, were you there too?! You sullen stalker!!”

With her red hair fluttering at the flap of her wings, she poured out her irritation at Kaen.

“Dare to the Lord…!!”

“…Everyone back down. I’ll step in.”

At last, Kaen, who had been hugging me, stepped forward, holding back her Wolyeonghoe.

“Hoe Lord…!”

“I’m fine. Dragon is a dragon… Taking this opportunity to slit the dragon’s head wouldn’t be a bad thing. Wolyeonghoe protect him.”

Kaen draws her sword and exhales her thick flesh.

At this, the red dragon’s body flinched.

“I… I don’t want to cut my throat…”

Her guy must have been frightened of her, as he raised her eyes and spoke those words in a weeping voice to her, who was perched on top of her own head.

“What are you talking about, Draco? You can’t have your throat cut by that gloomy b*tch.”

She replied as if it were absurd.

“Give me Jetto, Kaen.”

“If you don’t like it.”

“Jetto wants to come to me…! Right, Jetto?”

“……”

I felt like I was getting dizzy from the conversation, so I decided to remain silent.

“…Look at that! Zeto wants to go back to the nest with me!”

She cried out in defiance.

“Yuri… I didn’t hear any reply…”

“Shut up, Draco.”

“……”

At Yuri’s sad voice, the red dragon Draco’s mouth shut tight.

As Zeppetti said, the situation was never good.

Kaen led the entire Wolyeonghoe.

Yuri appears riding a red dragon.

The important thing is not only that.

She hadn’t arrived yet, but she could clearly feel Bernice’s aura on the other side of the forest.

The saintess was coming here with her knights.

It won’t be long before a three-way battle that is nothing short of chaos will unfold.

I was able to finish eating the fried rice just in time, so I set the bowl down on the floor and stepped back, leaving the two women bickering behind me.

The Wolyeonghoe guys who followed me gave off a lot of atmosphere that they would take me with them even if they had to use physical force.

Anyway, it seemed that ‘her’ was needed to overcome the current situation.

“When will she arrive?”

[ She is on her way to Zeto with Daedroth. ]

“I should have arrived on time.”

I thought of the face of her coming here.

From noble mtl dot com

‘…I must be angry.’

Because of Eisel’s ‘love act’, which may have gone a little too far, he fell out with her.

She can no longer carry her around her waist, she says.

I finally opened my mouth as I watched the bloody scene of Yuri and Kaen confronting each other.

“Hey, Zeppetti.”

[ Yes, Mr. Jeto. ]

“Just in case…”

It was a passing thought as the situation reached its peak.

“…Wouldn’t it have been better to do something like a ‘declaration’?”

[ Well. One thing is for sure, the current situation was beyond my calculations. ]

I may have underestimated them.

Zepetti answered that.

“……”

I was scratching my head.

I knew full well that it wasn’t Zepetty’s fault.

This was a ‘karma’ he accumulated on his own, and a ‘sin’ he had to shoulder.
