I Became a Blind Swordsman at the Academy chapter 51

51. Hubert Graham

51. Hubert Graham

Eventually, on the weekend, I bought an item to give to Kaen.

I thought that if it was an item with a stylish appearance, I would like it quite a bit.

The price was quite high because it was an item with good specifications, but it was good because it was clear that the growth of Kaen would be of great help to me in the end.

Soon, weekdays arrived and normal routine began again.

‘I can’t see Eisel.’

I thought he might be late, but even after Edward’s class started, Eisel didn’t show up.

In the end, he glanced at Edward during class and whispered to Yuri.

“…why isn’t Miss Eisel coming?”

“Huh? Neither Eisel nor you have been seen since the weekend… I wondered if the two of you were spending at least some intimate time ‘without me’, wasn’t that the case?”

Yuri asked me back, emphasizing ‘except for me’ in the middle.

Recently, there have been many things that have happened in the absence of glass.

I guess that was a bit disappointing.

I opened my mouth with a bitter smile.

“I haven’t met Miss Eisel this weekend either.”

“Well… I wonder if he’s skipping class somewhere.

Saying that, Yu-ri fiddled with her finely braided hair.

Eisel in the game often skipped classes.

Up until now, I hadn’t missed classes to the extent that it felt strange to have been attending classes steadily.

‘Being away all weekend…’

As a regressor, Eisel Ludwig will be dealing with enemies that need to be defeated.

It was the same the other time when he was held in my arms covered in blood.

Eisel was strong.

As a regressor, he wouldn’t easily attack a dangerous opponent.

‘If I don’t overdo it, nothing will happen…’

As I was thinking about various things, Edward’s class was over before I knew it.

I checked the status window just in case, but there was no change.

…Well, I’m used to it now.

At this point, the class rewards were not random, but the rewards were so low that I wondered if Edward was deliberately blocking my growth.

Instead, even the content of the class was not cool.

Edward’s classes were simple but made the students think a lot on their own.

After class, I was just thinking about what to do next.

“Cadet Zetto? This way for a moment.”

Edward, who was about to leave the classroom, was calling me.

“What are you doing?”

Yuri, who was sitting next to me, has a question.

I had the same doubts.

Soon, as I approached Edward, the corners of his mouth went up.

‘I can’t adapt to that smile.’

The suspicious smile that I had seen countless times in the game was unchangingly reluctant.

Edward, who immediately smiled suspiciously, left the classroom, so I followed him.

As soon as we leave the classroom, Edward starts talking.

“Cadet Zeto, I’ve been impressed with the recent events. Especially the Dalian that took place this time… It was absurd.”

“Yeah…”

“It’s a compliment.”

At my hesitant answer, Edward turned his head and emphasized it.

Soon after, Edward, who turned his head again and walked forward, continued talking.

“By the way… Cadet Zeto has a lot of secrets, right?”

I was slightly nervous at Edward’s meaningful words.

“I was suspicious because there was not much information… but I didn’t think the president would have admitted me, hahahaha.”

Edward continued walking down the aisle and said so.

‘The chairman admitted me?’

Innocence Academy founded by the wise.

The Innocence Academy also had a chairman.

Hubert Graham.

He is the current chairman of the board.

The Graham family must have had a deep connection with the wise since ancient times, and they have maintained their position as the chairman of the board for generations.

To be expressed in the game, there was not much information about the family itself, so it had a strong sense of mystery.

It feels like the rich people who appear in conspiracy theories.

To put it simply, the Graham family was the academy’s source of money, so I know they’re overflowing with money.

In the game, the character of ‘Hubert Graham’, the chairman of the board, was only a character that appeared occasionally.

This means that the proportion was not very high.

The reason why the player entered the academy was related to the president.

You can see it in the intro scene that comes out when you start the game.

‘I wonder if the same applies to me.’

When I entered this world, I was already scheduled to enter the academy, so there was no way to know in detail, but from what Edward is saying now, it seems like it was.

“I’m not a person who comes to the academy very often, but I was surprised to receive a call all of a sudden.”

Edward said in a puzzled voice.

“Looks like the chairman called me.”

“That’s right.”

After briefly responding to my words, Edward’s footsteps stop in front of the door.

On the wall next to the door, you can see a sign that reads ‘Chairman’s Office’.

‘Are you going to give me a reward?’

The call of the director could be experienced occasionally even in the game.

He calls them out of nowhere, compliments them, and gives them different rewards depending on the timing.

Soon Edward knocks on the door.

“Chairman, I brought Cadet Jeto with me.”

‘Come in.’ A thick voice called, and soon Edward opened the door wide.

I followed Edward’s guidance and entered the chairman’s office.

Hubert is seen sitting at a desk in the front.

Standing next to Hubert was a woman who looked to be his secretary.

Then, as soon as Edward closes the door and leaves, Hubert’s mouth opens.

“Cadet Zeto, it’s been a while!”

Hubert greeted me with a hearty laugh.

he already knew me

But I’m seeing him for the first time.

***

“Cadet Zeto, it’s been a while!”

The sage was currently disguised as Hubert Graham.

Changing his appearance was not too difficult for him.

Even if there were ‘restrictions’, there was no big problem with using polymorph magic.

“It’s been a while, Chairman.”

When the wise man greeted Jeto, he bowed his head as well.

‘As expected, he seems to know Hubert…’

Hubert Graham was a sage himself. The wise man has no memory of meeting Jeto. But he knows the chairman.

When the sage is about to tell Jeto, who is standing in the room, to sit down, the voice of Itea disguised as a secretary echoes in his head.

[ …Master, I remember Hubert Graham being a little less frivolous. Please be careful. ]

It was some kind of communication magic.

Zeto, which the sage looked at, was a specially prepared magic, judging that the senses other than sight were highly developed.

“…”

The sage kept his mouth shut at Itea’s words.

Itea used to help the wise man act Graham by his side.

‘Hubert was the first Graham…’

Every board chair that has ever existed at the academy, that is to say, every Graham has been a sage himself.

In order to avoid people’s suspicion, each Gray Mother used to have a personality or characteristic.

If Hubert Graham is a bright personality with a good affinity, Graham before Hubert, Altair Graham, was a person with a very cold and sober personality.

However, as the life of Graham continued for a long time, the wise man began to confuse his teeth.

It was also the reason why the wise man didn’t go out often as Graham.

‘Maybe it’s time to create the real Graham family.’

The sage, who was contemplating whether to adopt a child to become Graham, opens his mouth while looking at Jeto.

“Sit comfortably.”

Jetto sits on the sofa in an appropriate position.

His senses, which came from quite natural movements, reached an amazing level.

‘At this point, I wonder if everything is visible.’

The wise man swallowed his saliva before throwing such a trivial joke.

“I really like the design of the necklace you’re wearing.”

The ‘necklace containing the warrior’s protection’ on Zeto’s chest was put into the eyes of the wise man.

Design didn’t mean much to Jeto, who became the owner of the necklace.

However, the sage, who was the creator of it, thought he liked the design of the necklace the more he saw it.

“Ah, I got this by accident when I went to the labyrinth. It looks like a magic item… I think it’s all thanks to the academy. hahahaha.”

Then Jeto scratched his head and smiled.

“Heh heh, that’s a good thing. Thanks to the Labyrinth, many cadets get good experiences and rewards. By the way, it seems like it’s been a while since I’ve seen it… Maybe three months?”

The sage, who made his fortune with a trivial necklace talk, goes straight to the point.

The sage has never met Jeto.

Same with Hubert Graham.

However, this man with bandages around his eyes in front of him showed a nonchalant attitude as if he had met Hubert.

So, I decided to try him out.

Jetto’s papers stated that Hubert, chairman of the board, had admitted him three months earlier.

Then it must have been about the time I met him.

A smile formed on Jeto’s lips at the wise man’s question, and he opened his mouth.

“…I still remember it vividly. The chairman was riding in a carriage to the city. The place he was going must have been… ‘Millibrium’?”

The wise man was taken aback by Zeto’s words.

It wasn’t embarrassing because I had never been to a city called Millibrium.

It was because the sage had memories of going to Millibrium in a carriage in the form of Hubert Graham.

That must have been about 3 months ago.

Even so, this man named Jeto was still missing.

As the sage was silent to hide his embarrassment, the voice of Itea, who was next to him, echoed again.

[Master, looking at my memory, it seems that I was not with you at the time. ]

Itea was a golem.

Golem’s memories could be precisely ‘stored’ unlike people’s, but if Itea was by her side at the time, Itea would have remembered this man named Zeto in the first place.

Why even Itea didn’t recognize Jeto… The story was frighteningly close.

‘Did I really forget about it…?’

The wise man talks to Zeto to deny this.

“…I didn’t expect to see you there.”

“It was fortunate. While the carriage the chairman was riding in was attacked by bandits… I happened to be passing by. I didn’t expect that to be an opportunity to enter the academy.”

“Heh heh heh, it was like that. It was like that. It’s a nostalgic story…”

The wise man laughed so wildly and hid his doubts about Zeto.

‘I remember going to Millibrium… but I don’t remember anything after riding the wagon. They were attacked by thieves…’

It was strange.

It felt like someone had cut the thread of memory in the middle.

Either the sage lost his memory, or someone manipulated his memory.

But he was a ‘sage’.

I’ve never heard of magic that touches memories, and if someone dares to manipulate a sage’s memory, he’ll have to bring a main god with him.

‘At this rate, it seems that I really forgot about him.’

There was even such a detailed story, but it was impossible to doubt Zeto by saying that he couldn’t remember it.

Just when the sage accepts the reality that he has forgotten his memory and wants to let out a sigh, Jeto speaks first.

“…so why did you call me?”

“Huuuw. I heard that you are showing outstanding performance in the academy this time, so I visited you once.”

The sage responded and sent a signal to Itea by tapping the desk.

The sage did not detect any strangeness even when he had a direct conversation with Zeto. So it seemed certain that the sage had forgotten his memory.

It couldn’t have been that the reason why a person like the chairman of the board suddenly summoned a cadet was to chat.

This was an appropriate cause for a conversation.

Itea confirms the sage’s signal and gives Jeto something.

After accepting a key, Jeto tilts his head and opens his mouth.

“What is this?”

“Soon the first year students are going on a field trip? It looks like they will be going on an ‘airship’… It’s the key to the room I used in the airship. I heard that you received… I’m sorry that I only have a lot of money to do for you.”

Soon, a smile is engraved on Jeto’s lips as he listens to the wise man in silence.

“No, I just want to thank you for your concern. Airship… I’m looking forward to it.”

“I’d like to talk more, but I’m quite busy, so it won’t be possible. It’s good to go back now.”

The wise man decided to watch Zeto more carefully.

In any case, Zeto was speculated to be able to communicate with spirits, so he was a person of interest to the wise man.

He may not be a saint… but it was clear that he had special powers.

Then Jeto lowered his head and left the chairperson’s office.

The room where Zeto left and silence lingered.

Itea, who was standing next to the sage, quietly uttered a word.

“Master, let’s find out if there is an elixir that improves memory.”

“…”

The sage turned his head and looked at Itea with a serious face.

I couldn’t think of anything to refute.

“If there is such an elixir… it wouldn’t hurt to try it…”

***

The short meeting with Hubert was over.

As I expected, the same thing happened with the game’s intro.

In the intro of the game, there is a scene where the chairperson’s carriage is attacked and the player helps him enter the school.

As soon as Hubert mentioned 3 months, I could tell.

Because it coincided with the time of the incident in the intro.

‘Actually, I don’t remember that.’

I don’t even know if that incident really happened.

It seems like he didn’t have any doubts by looking around him somehow.

‘I have one question…’

I’ve had bandages around my eyes since I first entered this world.

Hubert didn’t find the bandages around my eyes strange either.

There are two possible cases.

The first is that a person named Zeto with bandages around his eyes was living in this world.

The second is that when the character Zeto was born in this world, an unknown ‘power of fate’ was applied. In a word, Hubert’s memory was manipulated.

Which one, I don’t know.

But in the case of the former, the odds seem slim.

Jeto was a character I made by customizing myself.

It must have been difficult to even notice that the bandage was an item called an ‘eye patch that pierces reason’, but ‘Zeto’, who would not have lost his eyesight, lived with bandages around his eyes…

…that was kind of odd.

I know it’s an item, so I’m wearing it.

To sum it up, it seems to fit that the transcendental being who put me into the game world intervened in this situation.

The reward Hubert gave me this time is the key to the ultra-luxurious cabin of the airship that I will board when I go on a field trip.

As Hubert said, the freshmen were soon going on a field trip to an area far from the academy.

At this time, you can meet the second main boss in the order after Lycanthrope at the place you went on the field trip.

I remember receiving this key in the game as well.

It wasn’t a very useful reward.

I remember it to the extent that I can recover my physical strength better in the room and see various characters and special events.

Anyway, after the interview with Hubert, I went back to the dormitory and immediately prepared to go out.

No matter how much I thought about it, it was because ‘Barsium’ kept on my mind.

Even if it’s a character that didn’t appear in the game, I decided that there would be nothing bad by preparing for it.

Barsium was a high-ranking vampire.

Vampires are included in the undead.

In other words, the light attribute attack, which is the effect of the ‘necklace containing the warrior’s protection’ hanging around my neck, can have a great effect against him.

But I didn’t think the necklace would solve everything.

Chapter 1 had limitations.

It is possible to send a sword strike at a distant enemy without sword sword… but if the opponent wants to deal with it after experiencing the first chapter, he can cope with it as much as he wants.

You can see where you are trying to cut even in the eyes of the opponent.

Chapter 1 had the meaning that it could be used for a surprise attack or attack from a distance.

So, the level must have risen just in time, so I wanted to learn Chapter 2 of the reverse sky.

In fact, it was about raising skill points rather than learning, but as long as Sierra existed, it was right to go through the process of being taught by her.

Skill points have already been used.

By investing 4 points in Ghost Sword, the skill level of Reverse Heaven rose to level 4.

The current location is a quiet forest outside the academy.

This is where I learned and mastered Chapter 1 of Yeokcheon (逆天) before.

Sierra approaches me as I was sitting on a stump that had been cut down with one piece the other day.

[Did you say you wanted to learn Chapter 2? Hmm… I’d like to progress quickly, but I can’t become a teacher and rot the talent of a disciple. ]

“You said that Chapter 2 was about time, right? So, time…”

[I’m going against it. To be precise, it is against the flow of time. ]

Sierra interrupted me to come in and add an explanation.

“The passage of time…”

Previously, I thought it was going back in time because I was told I was going back in time.

As I listened to Sierra’s explanation, I began to understand what Chapter 2 would feel like.

The status window was very helpful.

Chapter 2 of Reverse Heaven defies the flow of time.

It is to make the flow of time slow only for the caster.

When I cast Chapter 2, everything except the caster seems to slow down.

Should we say that we can experience the slow-motion world?

To be precise, the caster’s speed would be that much faster.

[However, I don’t know how long you can endure with your current body… even the original woman. ]

Sierra, who was looking at me, said that in a worried voice.

“…a body?”

While asking such questions, at the same time, I felt that way.

It would be weird to not have a penalty.

    It would be better if it was the future Sages from all the past regressions 🤔 that tampered with his past self

  6. Arcus 101 Arcus 101 says:

    This mystery is intriguing. Maybe, that the sage was right in that he would notice if someone tamper with his memory and inserted a fake one even if the one that did it is a divine being. so maybe that god or whoever brought MC there merely fake a document and insert him to the world. Tampering with the sage’s memory unnoticed may be impossible but faking a document must be child’s play for them.
