I Became a Blind Swordsman at the Academy chapter 31

31. Reversal and return

Fate.

All this time, I only thought that my death was a predestined fate.

Even if you struggle with regression, you can’t escape it… it’s inevitable.

That was until I met Jeto.

Hair flutters in the wind that blows.

I breathe in as hard as I can.

And exhale.

“Whoa…”

Jeto’s sword has been changed.

Jeto from the previous episode said it was Master’s sword.

He already knew who Zeto’s master was.

A high-level female swordsman who made a name for herself in the past. Purple Moon Sierra.

It is said that her skill was comparable to that of a swordsman.

She was a grateful person who taught Jetto a lot. Unfortunately, from hearing Jeto’s words, it seemed that he had already passed away.

‘Why is it faster than before?’

It was after the Labyrinth incident that Jeto took out Master’s sword.

It was a bit earlier now.

“…Is it because my behavior has changed?”

I try to mumble something to myself that no one will hear. Talking to oneself was a stupid habit developed after the regression.

“I don’t know, Jeto.”

I don’t know how my actions may have affected him.

Because the me now is very different from the previous episode.

A lot has changed, so I couldn’t get a feel for it.

Even though I’ve experienced many times that others’ actions and futures change as my actions change, Jetto was especially concerned.

At this rate, did he know that he was going to die?

If he approaches me, is it right to push him away?

For Zeto to live his life normally without being involved in my work.

I knew very well that it was the most comfortable and best way.

Even though I knew, I couldn’t.

There have been many failures and deaths.

It was a number that was enough to drain one’s mind.

It was Zeto who prevented my death.

When ‘that day’ came, I deliberately avoided Zeto.

I didn’t want to drag him into this tragic story with an obvious ending.

However, Zeto on that day appeared like a hero and saved me from danger.

He was my savior.

But he died.

on behalf of the insignificant me.

Is it fate that someone must die in the end?

If it was really such a trashy fate, I wanted to go against it. Just as Jeto defied fate by preventing my death.

“…it’s okay.”

I spat out the words I had repeated thousands of times since the regression started, and managed to catch myself.

Okay.

It was something that hadn’t happened yet.

However, if my actions changed the plot,

So if Jeto doesn’t come to my side this time.

If Jeto doesn’t come to rescue me…

That’s not going to be okay.

Even if that’s the only way to save Zeto.

I don’t think it will be okay.

I was even thinking of ‘taking’ Zeto first.

I was selfish.

That kind of me was disgusting and disgusting.

I couldn’t survive without him.

“Eww…”

The wind was cold for no reason, perhaps because evil thoughts ran through my head.

I wrapped my cold knees in both arms.

I’ve never lived my life wishing for happiness.

My life has always been survival, survival and survival.

I just wanted to live.

Everything changed after meeting Jeto.

I felt new in my repetitive daily life, and I felt comfortable when I was with him.

So maybe that’s what you want.

…about Jetto.

I slowly stood up from the roof where I was squatting.

“Zetto, what are you doing now?”

Maybe I’m training.

Because he was a great hard worker.

On the roof of the towering clock tower, everything looked small.

The world was beneath my feet.

It felt like I had the power to defy fate.

It was a place I often visited whenever I felt frustrated or anxious.

The unobstructed view of this place was one of the things I would like to introduce to Jeto someday.

If he breathes in the open air, he will feel refreshed.

“…I’ll work hard too.”

I had to go see Jeto and the sea.

He had to make his wish come true, which Jeto did not know about.

After that, I slowly descended from the roof.

The clock tower located in the center of the city.

The platinum-haired girl sitting on the roof disappeared in an instant, leaving behind a crackling spark.

“You’re twisting the flow of mana?!”

My voice rose at Sierra’s absurd explanation.

[Yes, that is the beginning of the reverse heaven. Reverse hand, and reverse flow. ]

Sierra recited the explanation in a brusque voice as if it were nothing.

It was outside the academy, deep in the woods, where not a single person came and went.

Since I didn’t feel Kaen’s presence, I was able to talk to Sierra comfortably.

The reason why I came to this place, not the Gu Tae-yeo gymnasium, was to test the Yeokcheon.

Since you’ve acquired a skill, shouldn’t you use it?

Through the status window, he said that he had knowledge about the reverse sky, but Sierra, who had become a urethra, was openly by his side.

So, I was learning reverse-casting from her for a natural process.

“It’s shallow knowledge, but if you twist the flow of mana in general… won’t you get internal injuries…?”

[What kind of a normal person are you, don’t be so scared and give it a try. ]

Sierra scolded me with a sullen expression.

I sat cross-legged on the floor and focused on the flow of mana.

Since the knowledge of reverse heaven was already in his head, he knew how to reverse mana.

I feel mana slowly flowing through my body.

If you twist this in reverse…

“…Geuheop!”

Blood gushed out of his mouth along with a tingling pain. It was a natural result.

Sierra sneaks up to me as if she knew that, and strokes my back.

“How come you wanted to create such an extraordinary swordsmanship?”

Sierra pondered over my question before opening her mouth.

[ …Do you know how many times the original woman was defeated by the Sword Saint? ]

“Hmm… I don’t even know the exact numbers.”

[Seventy-six times. ]

Sierra stops stroking my back and stands in front of me.

She had the eyes of a ferocious beast. It was such an eye that only the wild instinct that could bite it at any time remained.

[That is the number of times the original woman was defeated by the Sword Saint. It wasn’t a life-or-death decision, so I was able to keep my life. Maybe she thought it was fate. I can’t help but lose to him… Such an odd fate. ]

“…But you didn’t give up.”

[ yes. There was no giving up on her. However, if the original woman was the earth in swordsmanship, he was like the sky. The difference between his swordsmanship and the original girl’s swordsmanship was extreme. ]

Sierra then raised her palm to the sky.

earth and sky.

[If he is heaven… If losing to him is my destiny…]

Eventually, in line with her words, the palms turned downwards.

[I will defy him. That is Sierra Ryu reverse heaven. ]

Sierra’s low words resonated in my head, and my whole body shuddered and gave me goosebumps.

defy fate

It was a story that touched me deeply.

Destiny and Eisel’s death.

‘And I’m vaguely feeling… my failure.’

I too was trying to defy fate.

[Did you say mana management was clumsy? Rather good. Don’t try to be delicate and detailed. Would you like to reverse a larger and wider current? ]

Following Sierra’s easier explanation, I tried mana regurgitation once again.

This time, I didn’t try to make it difficult and detailed.

big flow.

A wider flow of mana.

reverse at once.

In an instant, the flow of mana flowing through his body reversed.

The power that went into the body is lost, and it becomes loose.

Movement is noticeably relaxed.

But never slow.

Soon after, I got up from my seat.

Reverse hand is the basic.

With his right hand, he grasped the urethra in the left waist with reverse hand.

Then, Sierra told me about it, and I used the first skill of Reverse Heaven, which I knew through skill acquisition.

Whether it was the posture when attacking or the strength of the cut wasn’t the important part.

Yeokcheon (逆天) is a swordsmanship that puts great significance in eventually going against something.

Like a book, Yeokcheon was organized by page, like chapters 1 and 2.

Each chapter was different in what it was trying to counter.

What I’m trying to do now is Chapter 1 of Reverse Heaven.

‘What I want to go against is…’

ㅡSurereung!

The urethra he was holding in reverse hand was unleashed and cut diagonally at the same time.

Then, it gracefully turned and cut through the air a couple more times.

ㅡ Tak.

He led the way by finishing the movements that flowed like water.

ㅡSuddenly!

ㅡStand up!!

At the same time as lead painting, several trees at a distance are cut down.

Clearly, even though the air has been cut, leaves are falling in abundance from afar, and severed tree branches are stuck on the floor.

A few deeply cut trees fall with a crunch.

Even though the sword energy came out, it wasn’t even cut by the contact of the sword steel.

‘…space.’

crossed the space

The urethra went against the concept of space and cut down a tree that was not even supposed to reach.

This was Sierra Ryu’s ‘Chapter 1 Space’.

Judging from the relatively neat success, it seems that the reverse heaven skill obtained through demon swordsmanship is well applied.

[My, disciple, did you just reach a state of trance…? ]

Sierra, who was watching closely from the side, carefully asked me in a small voice.

Judging by the expression on his face, it seems that he did not know that he would succeed from the first attempt.

Since I had a status window, this was extremely unusual for her.

It was not unreasonable considering that she had toiled for decades to create this swordsmanship.

‘A state of trance…’

Trance.

It refers to a state in which you forget even your own existence due to extreme concentration.

I couldn’t inform the existence of the status window, so I think it will be a good excuse in the future in this situation.

“I’m bewildered… Touching a tree that was far away even though it wasn’t even black… I could definitely feel the feeling of cutting it.”

I shook my head and shivered.

[Fortunately, it must have been within the range of detection. Our pupil… might be a genius. I never thought I would learn so quickly… As much as the original woman was Yodo, I felt it. The reversal just before was absolutely perfect. ]

Sierra always admires me.

‘This… I need to adjust my pace…’

Sierra’s admiration was burdensome, so I changed the subject.

“Aren’t you sick? Isn’t it connected to the urethra?”

[The blade didn’t feel any different no matter how much impact was applied. Other parts are enough once you get used to it. At that time, it was a sensation that I hadn’t felt in a long time… Please forget that memory…]

I thought of that while listening to Sierra’s blushing explanation.

What part of the urethra is connected to which part of the senses?

I don’t know, but wouldn’t I know when it’s time to trim the urethra?

[By the way… What do you think, the reverse heaven made by the original woman? I want to hear your appraisal. ]

Sierra, her eyes narrowing, asked me.

“It’s amazing that it’s a swordsmanship created by humans.”

This wasn’t flattery for her.

He expressed his personal experiences purely without any additions.

[Goes against space, goes against time. I defy what blocks my way. In the end, even the sky will go against it. That is the mystery contained in reverse heaven. ]

“Then the final chapter…”

The reverse stream was still unfinished.

Sierra passed away right before completion.

[The final chapter… As you know, I couldn’t finish it. ]

While Sierra continued to speak, she paused for a moment before touching my cheek and speaking.

[Reverse God. That is the final chapter of the reverse heaven that you must complete in the future. ]

“I’m going to… defy God…?”

[Yes, it contains the meaning of going against the God who gave us destiny. ]

“The clergy say it’ll be a big deal when they hear it, hahahaha…”

[It’s okay. I wouldn’t be able to hear it anyway. ]

Sierra snorts at my joke.

As I listened to Sierra’s explanation, I couldn’t figure out the maximum power of Reverse Heaven.

‘They said it was a swordsmanship made to defeat the swordsman… Was he thinking of defeating even a god…’

Even in the game, I heard that the level of understanding of swordsmanship itself exceeds that of Swordsman…

I never dared to imagine that it would be like this.

I looked back at Chapter 1 of Reverse Heaven, which I had just cast.

When I was casting Chapter 1, mana was continuously drained. In the state of casting, my slashes could reach much farther by jumping over the distance against space.

Like this, I thought that the skills of reversal were more like a kind of mode, rather than an active skill, a continuous skill.

Should I say ‘Chapter 1 Space’ is a mode that allows you to attack from a distance without using sword skills?

Considering the effect of my blind spots and eye patch, the power will be doubled.

Since he didn’t pull out the sword, it seemed easy to draw out the opponent’s carelessness.

Chapter 1 is this much, but what about ‘Chapter 2 Time’… let alone the final chapter of Yeokcheon, Yeoksin (逆神), I had no idea what type of technique it would be.

Unfortunately, I was only able to write up to chapter 1.

It seems to be the limit of the 2nd level of Yeokcheon.

In ‘Chapter 2’, thanks to Sierra’s explanation and skill level, you can get a sense of what kind of technology it is.

Chapter 1 goes against space, and Chapter 2 goes against the flow of time.

‘How many copies do you want to have…’

It was a skill that did not appear in the game, so information was lacking. In the future, if you have any questions about the reverse stream, it would be best to ask Sierra right away.

Anyway, I’ve only been able to deal with chapter 1, but that was enough. For the rest, it would be enough if you raised the level of demon swordsmanship and mastered it.

1 level of reversal for every 4 levels of demon swordsmanship.

Considering the performance, it was absolutely not a bad investment.

A satisfactory result was obtained.

The performance of the reverse spring (逆天) tested for a while was at a terrible level.

if there is a problem…

“But mana is running out quite a bit, this…”

I sat down on the tree behind me and said. For a moment, mana recovery through the bracelet was necessary.

Sierra comes next to me and speaks to me in a friendly voice.

[There must be a difference between the realm and the original woman. Right now, it seems like a good thing to use only when it’s moderately important. ]

“I’ll keep that in mind.”

[You also need to get used to holding it in reverse. Still clumsy, a lot. ]

Sierra continued to teach me for a long time with a proud face.

‘It must be the first time teaching someone.’

She had already become a decent ‘teacher’.
