I Became a Blind Swordsman at the Academy chapter 97

97. Darkness getting thicker (complete)

97. Darkness getting thicker (complete)

After finding out Shade’s true name, he was able to safely seal it.

Since it was a dark spirit, it was not something to be reluctant to do.

I thought it would be better than blowing the Spirit King’s whistle pointlessly.

The true name was quite difficult to pronounce, but there was no great difficulty in sealing it.

At the moment of sealing the shade, he muttered something in the language of the spirits, but judging from the strength of the pronunciation… it was like an abusive language.

Since then, it has been accompanied by excruciating pain.

It was not an easy thing to see the spirit ‘forcibly’ sealed in the body.

Shade is now a black hairball, Shady.

Shady could recognize Sierra.

It was possible to contact and communicate with Sierra.

Communication.

Yes. Shady could speak very simple words.

Perhaps being a high-ranking spirit had an effect.

Shade becomes ‘Shady’ like that.

The boy’s mouth, which was already wide open, opened.

Shady’s first soft words were…

…’f*ck.’

I got it.

From the spirit’s point of view, she lost her free will due to an unfair contract concluded in an instant, so she couldn’t help but curse.

It wasn’t even a summons, it was a whistle call.

Magredo also said to be prepared to be hated by the spirits.

Shady mumbled curses as if she was out of her mind, and Sierra, who couldn’t see it, punched Shady in the head, saying that it was a nasty habit.

Even though he was beaten by Sierra overnight, he steadfastly spat out curse words, and he must have been beaten like that five times.

“……”

Shady suddenly became quiet.

He could make contact with Sierra and hear her voice.

[Shadyra… Doesn’t Shady sound like a girl’s name? ]

“Wouldn’t it be okay since spirits don’t have a gender in the first place?”

[Yes, Shady. do you like your name? ]

Sierra asked, looking at Shady, who was perched above my head.

“…Kerung.”

Shady gave Sierra a glare, then he turned his short neck to ignore her.

[ under. ]

Even when he snorted, he turned his head away.

Even if you don’t get along right now, if you stay together, you’ll get better soon.

Shady was on the cute side overall.

Her fluffy fur gave her a sense of coziness, and despite her small body, she had a large face.

If cuteness has a golden ratio, I wonder if Shady fits that ratio perfectly.

“rice.”

I heard Shady’s voice above my head.

He had a high-pitched voice like a child, but he still had his characteristic harsh voice when he was Shade.

‘Did the spirit eat?’

what should i feed

Around the time I was reaching for that thought.

ㅡQuack.

There was a strange sound of something sharp being struck overhead.

Sierra then asks me a question with a dark expression.

[My disciple…? ]

“yes?”

[That… he drove his teeth into your head… is it okay…? ]

“ah.”

It must have been the sound of Shady driving his teeth into the crown of my head.

‘I didn’t feel any pain…’

Before long, Shady began to chug, chug, as if sucking blood.

Still didn’t feel any pain.

[What are you eating…?! ]

Sierra hurriedly tried to get him off my head.

However, perhaps because the teeth were deeply planted, Shady did not easily remove them.

I opened my mouth while blocking Sierra.

“Maybe it’s taking life force? I think it can be left as it is.”

[That’s right…]

“hahahaha, it doesn’t hurt, so it’s okay.”

I said that and smiled to reassure Sierra.

Then Sierra made a reluctant expression.

[I’m glad you’re not sick. …shouldn’t you wipe the blood from your mouth? ]

“Blood? Write…”

Immediately, Sierra reached out and wiped the blood from my mouth.

It seems to be certain that the vitality is being gnawed away.

The symptoms themselves were similar in many ways to those of Chapter 2, which consumes stamina.

Sierra’s soft voice echoed in my head, leaving Shady who was having a ‘meal’ like that.

[By the way… You know a lot about knowing the true name of the Dark Spirit. Our disciple is…]

“…Iknow, right.”

I answered, scratching my head.

I couldn’t figure out how he found out his true name.

Even though Shade was touched by the wave… I didn’t even remember seeing the true name of the Dark Spirit in the game or in the user’s community.

If there was at least one thing to point out, it was the existence of an ‘eyepatch that pierces reason’.

There must be a reason why such a modifier was attached to the eye patch.

However, the things I knew as the effect of the eyepatch were on the side of matching if they matched with the sentence ‘penetrating reason’.

deceptive effect.

It was through itself. Unreasonable… For example, such as the absurd growth rate, or the destructive power from a critical hit.

How about interpreting ‘ichi’ from a slightly broader perspective?

ichi of the world.

The principle of all things.

The principle of things, the root, the source, the essence, the truth.

…penetrate

see through

‘If the eye patch is in harmony with the spirit and pierces the ‘true name’ of the spirit…’

It was still just speculation.

However, there was a simple way to check if this approach worked.

Wasn’t there a dragon who was the head of a small village?

All beings called dragons have true names like spirits.

Coincidentally, his true name was unknown even in the game, so I thought he was a good opponent to test.

It was enough to find out.

I walked through the quiet forest, immersed in deep thought about my true name.

Shady had just finished eating and was burping a little.

I don’t know exactly how much I ate, but it was better than when I overdid the second chapter. It doesn’t seem to have gnawed all of his stamina to its maximum level.

Sierra asks a question.

[By the way, is it not necessary to deal with power? Judging from that hairball, the sealing seems to have been successful. ]

“Ah, the power of the spirits…”

I said that and stopped walking.

It was the power of a high-level spirit.

Now that I was free to deal with it, the amount of knowledge that flowed into my head was quite large.

The headache I felt immediately after sealing was also a pain caused by this.

Even on the status window, the skill named ‘Shade of Shadow’ was at the maximum level, so I forgot to test my strength.

Shade’s power was related to the shadow, as can be seen from his nickname ‘Shadow’.

There were various skills, but among them, I tried to use skills that seemed useful in any situation.

I focused on my shadow on the floor.

Soon, a shadow creeps in and engulfs me in an instant.

Immediately, my vision is dyed with endless darkness.

For an instant, he hid himself in the shadows.

‘Shadow hide and seek.’

It was the name of this skill that popped into my head, but I couldn’t tell if it was built by Shade or the status window.

The interior space was completely dark, but to say it was dark, I had ‘night vision’, so I had to assume that the color itself was black.

“Kerung! Kereung!”

As I entered the shadows, the Shady above my head jumped up and down as if I was excited.

I couldn’t figure out why he was excited.

Wasn’t that obviously angry?

I could see Sierra from the side.

In the first place, the yodo (妖刀) was on my waist, so she seems to be able to follow.

Sierra looked around and opened her mouth.

[ Ho? Is it a technique to hide the figure… Should I say it’s a different dimension… It might be right to say that it disappeared beyond the level of simply hiding the body. ]

She immediately recognized what kind of technique it was.

“Fortunately, I’m in the mood.”

I said that and slowly walked out of the space.

The waves of feeling reached the outside, and I was able to distinguish objects outside.

I could get out whenever I wanted, but there was one condition.

It was only possible to get out of a shadowy place.

It was a very weak restriction.

There are many places where there is not even a small shadow.

The vague sensations in my head seemed to allow me to write more freely in the dark of the night.

After taking a few more steps, I tried to get out of the shadows.

Just by being conscious of it, I immediately moved into action.

Soon, his body rose up from the floor where the shadow of the tree was, making a tsutsutsutsu sound.

Sierra follows me out of the shadows.

Having completely pulled myself out of the shadows, I looked at her and opened my mouth.

“Well, that’s how it feels.”

“Kerung!”

Following my words, Shady let out a proud cry.

[ …that sounds useful. ]

Sierra just shrugged.

In addition, there were various techniques such as direct attacks using shadows, defense, and trapping.

While looking at the technologies, Kaen suddenly came to mind.

‘Erase the shadow… was it?’

It was like his own secret skill, which can be seen from Kaen’s lines in the game, but he didn’t actually have that skill.

It was just a name that was grandiose enough to hide its appearance.

…Anyway, there were a lot of cool skills that fit Kaen’s taste very well.

The only problem was that it was a ‘dark attribute’.

Even if someone saw me using Shady’s power and concluded that I was a demon, there was nothing to say.

It wasn’t something I could easily show off in front of others.

‘Although I can show it to those who will soon die.’

I thought it was a hundred times better than not getting anything.

In particular, the ‘Shadow Hide and Seek’ that I just used was a very good technique to avoid people’s eyes.

Thanks to that, I was able to move more stealthily.

‘About the energy…’

…Since the dark spirit was sealed in the body, I can feel the weak energy.

First of all, Magredo said that it would be better for him not to run into an Elementalist.

According to the story, there is no chance of encountering a spiritist with a high affinity enough to recognize a higher level spirit.

‘At least a hero?’

The hero had a very high spirit affinity.

I was in the middle of making a plan for a hero recently.

But that… No, if it’s her, there’s an easy way to tell if I’m a demon or not, so it’s okay.

Although messy, the results were good.

Rather, it may be fortunate that it is dark.

At least the properties don’t overlap, right?

…I decided to think so.

It was for mental health.

At this level, it was necessary to see that the ability to cope with various situations was obtained with a small investment.

Soon after organizing my thoughts, I moved towards the academy to return to my normal daily life.

***

I was expecting an intimate meal with Jeto, but all plans went awry.

‘Because of that red hair.’

I quietly glared at Yuri who was sitting next to me.

Originally, Jeto used to be a barrier between the two, but today, Jeto was delayed for some reason.

Soon, Yuri also rolls her eyes and glances at me.

Sudden intrusion.

According to ‘101 Ways to Captivate a Man’, it is said that in this situation, you should definitely appeal your charm.

‘Is there something attractive about me…?’

What charm do I have?

What charm should I appeal to?

‘Body…?’

Even if it’s Zeto, he’s still a man… You can touch and feel it as much as you like.

There was one thing I felt the other day after ‘extremely embarrassing physical contact pretending to be a coincidence’.

At the time, Jeto passed over casually, but his ears were red.

I reached that thought and lowered my gaze.

“…”

Then, she spilled Yuri’s chest.

‘Fortunately, there isn’t a very big difference… maybe mine is better.’

If it wasn’t for the ‘pink two-tailed hair’, no one would be able to make a difference in terms of body shape.

Being active isn’t enough.

So, it was the time when I was thinking about what Zeto would like, looking back at the memories of the previous episode.

A man enters the classroom.

After checking the man’s face, the corners of my mouth naturally go up.

A man comes over and sits in his seat, next to me.

“Jetto, why are you late?”

Yuri spoke to him.

“…I don’t think I’m just barely late.”

Yuri and Jeto then have a friendly conversation.

I also wanted to say something, but

The voice hardly came out.

My throat has been choking ever since he came close.

in one day.

in just one day.

The ominous energy he had felt from Jeto deepened.

‘no way…’

Meanwhile, Yuri’s urgent voice is heard.

“Uh, Zeto… the blood…!”

“ah.”

Following Zeto’s shriek, he wiped away the blood dripping from his mouth with his thumb.

“Where does it hurt…? Do you want to go to the infirmary with me?”

“hahahaha, it’s okay. I’m just a bit unwell because I’ve been overdoing it lately.”

In spite of Yuri’s worried voice, Jetto just smiled brightly.

“But, the reason your mouth is bleeding is because you’re overdoing it…”

Yuri was muttering so much, but I seemed to know the cause.

Thickened ominous aura and hemoptysis.

Even that attitude of trying to laugh it off pretending nothing happened.

You come to a conclusion and your eyes blur.

My head was dizzy.

why.

For whatever reason, I don’t know.

…It seems that Zeto’s ‘curse’ has worsened.

    Ahhh the misunderstanding… I really love it! This was one of the things I liked about Trash of the Count’s Family. I’m glad this does not dissapoint XD.

  2. Here comes a really useless comment says:

    @Jsl If you find demons boring, go read rom-com novels, wth did you expect while reading novels that swords and magic exists?

  3. Viridis says:

    Darkness magic isn’t attributed to just evil creatures since even a loyal Spirit like the shade of shadows answered the spirit kings whistle. That means that even if shady is a dark attribute spirit his at least have a sense of pride as a creature of high status and loyalty to the spirit king 👑🔵 Not the demons
    Which are considered the bad guys

  4. Jojo says:

    Nah its more like he is ‘becoming part of the shadows to slay the darkness’….cid kagenoh would approve of his son in law lol

  5. Jsl says:
