I Became The Academy’s Blind Swordsman Chapter 3

EP.3 Ghost Slayer Technique

Today is the second day of the break.

For two days, I concentrated on growing by mobilizing all the ga knowledge I had.

“Thank you! Young man!”

“It’s not a big deal.”

“You can’t even see anything, but it’s amazing how you found our Chuchu.”

The old man was petting a cat nad Chuchu which was in his arms.

It was very easy for to know where the cat was hiding.

Of course, the cat was not as obedient as I thought, so I bought a fish from the fish store, but the result was good.

“It’s just a small gift. It will be a success since we used reliable ingredients this ti!”

This seemingly ordinary old man is an alchemist.

To be exact, I think I should call him a crazy alchemist?

He was a character who appeared only in the beginning and then disappeared, so no one knows his na or his real identity.

Compensation was important to anyway.

When the old man accepted the potion, he waved at and disappeared into a shaded alley.

‘Did I finish all the side quests that can be easily solved in the beginning with this one?’

Organizing what to do wasn’t that difficult.

The quest with the right reward for the ‘swordsman’ job was better, and it had to be easy enough to solve in a short ti even though it was a quest from the early part of the ga.

Even though I skipped so, there were much more than I thought, so the sun was already leaving after finishing my work.

This potion, called ‘Unknown Potion’ in my hand now, actually has a trendous effect of raising skill points.

ㅡGulp gulp

Without further delay, I inhaled the potion in a fit of anger.

“…Ugh.”

It tastes like trash.

I didn’t expect it to taste good because of the strange color, but I feel nauseous.

But they say that good dicines taste bitter.

I imdiately checked the status window.

‘Skill points have definitely risen.’

I used all the remaining points at this ti.

lv.10

Archived skill

-Ghost Slayer Technique Lv.8

-Excellent Sense lv.3

-Weakness Detection lv.MAX – Applying the effect of [Blindfold That is Beyond Reason]

Items in use

– Blindfold That is Beyond Reason. [Legendary]

– Low-quality Eastern Blade. [Normal]

– Energetic Silver Necklace. [Rare]

I worked hard for two days.

Looking at the status window showing progress accordingly, I feel proud.

Since the rewards from the quests, which only gave experience, were activated well, my level rose by five levels, and thanks to that, I was able to raise my skill level a lot.

The average level of cadets taking the class assignnt test is about 6.

Compared to that, I was already at level 10.

The effect of the blindfold was also greatly applied to the ‘Experience Gained Increased by 500%’.

No matter what ga it is, the difference between levels is obvious.

People in this world didn’t seem to know the existence of ‘levels’, but the difference must exist.

Once the level rises, the amount of mana in your body increases.

Mana can be seen as the basis of power in this world.

The wizard had to be able to handle Mana, much less a knight with a sword.

This is because it was common to fight by strengthening the body or weapon through Mana.

I feel that the amount of mana that was flowing in my body has also increased significantly compared to the first day.

At this rate, it may not be a dream to achieve the top score in the class assignnt test.

‘Well, I’m still overwhelmingly lacking in hands-on experience.’

For your information, my wallet has beco thick as I solved the quests.

I rember spending all my money a few days ago to ride in a carriage.

‘I’m hungry. Should I buy a sandwich on my way to the dorm?’

Near here, there was a famous sandwich shop called ‘Boar’, which was made with at from wild boar monsters.

I think food is the most interesting part after coming to this world and to a place that I wouldn’t have thought about.

I was able to taste unusual food that was filled with the fantasy that I had only seen in the ga, and the food was quite delicious.

Of course, the academy dormitory also provides good quality als, but for , who has played the ga for a long ti, the delicacies in the city attracted more attention.

Tonight’s dinner is a special boar at sandwich.

The last day of the break

I got myself out of bed.

The single room was assigned by the academy

This ans that there was no need to fight any unfamiliar n.

The interior of the room was very luxurious compared to the motel room I stayed in before coming to the academy.

In my case, I’ll be fine with everything as long as the bed is okay.

The bed in the motel that I ntioned earlier was like they put millions of straws on it, and since I’ve been used to being a modern person, I didn’t sleep well.

The bed in the dorm?

It was much better than the bed in my studio.

I overslept on the first day thanks to it.

Early in the morning, I washed up and finished preparing to go out.

Today, I’m going to the training ground to test my skills.

‘Passive skills have been applied well so far.’

‘Ghost Slayer Technique’ helped handle the sword skillfully and flamboyantly, and ‘Excellent Sense’ provided with a better response speed through my sharp sense.

For ‘Weakness Detection’, which was obtained through my blindfold, I haven’t experienced it yet, but I know what effect it had.

The effect of Weakness Detection is simply increasing the probability of fatal blow.

However, now that it’s a reality, I still don’t know how it will work. I haven’t experienced any combat yet, so I guess I’ll get to know more only if I get into a fight.

When I arrived at the training ground, I ward up lightly.

“Is he… blind?”

“He’s even holding a sword.”

“He must be a freshman, too.”

I got the attention from the cadets who ca first, but as I wandered around for two days to complete the quests, these turned out to be a familiar reaction.

I just have to mind my own business.

ㅡSling

I took out my sword slowly.

The eastern blade that I was holding.

It was better to cut than to stab.

I imdiately swung it with grace.

‘Ghost Slayer Technique’.

Originally, ‘Ghost Slayer Technique’ is a skill that can work only when the spirit of the dead, which is a devil(鬼), is contained in the sword.

In this world, you can only shine when you use it with a Spectralsword(妖刀), which is a demon sword.

Depending on whose soul the Spectralsword contains, how strong the soul has, and how strong the soul was during its lifeti, the performance of ‘Ghost Slayer Technique’ varies widely.

It’s difficult to perform well from the beginning, but if the conditions are t, it can show high power.

To do so, the first priority is to make a sword that can withstand a strong evil spirit, and it’s essential to find a strong soul and seal it in the sword to make a Spectralsword.

An ingredient that is resistant to the evil spirit is needed to make a sword.

Funds to entrust production to a skilled blacksmith.

It wasn’t sothing that could be solved in only a few days.

There’s no big problem with a powerful soul.

It can be solved quickly with my ga knowledge.

There are so suitable candidates who know the location because they’ve already used the Ghost Slayer Technique technique in gas.

As powerful as they are…

‘…It’s not going to be as easy as the ga.’

Although the Ghost Slayer Technique technique wasn’t showing its performance, it’s still swordsmanship for now.

Surely, the skill level has risen, so the sword itself moved faster and more flashy than before.

I swung my sword further and stopped.

“Haa… Haa…”

I’m out of breath.

I can even feel the hot drops of sweat flowing through my face clearly.

It was because I pulled out Mana as much as possible and wielded a sword with it in my whole body.

How the hell did they train in this way…?’

I might have slightly more mana than other cadets, but I still have a weak point compared to them.

Dealing with mana.

I’m weak at controlling my mana.

I just let mana flow all over my body.

It’s almost impossible to use as much mana as I want in the desired area.

There was no mana in modern tis.

Mana could never be used to this unfamiliar energy in my body.

It was a much more alien sense than three more tails and arms that humans should not have.

Even in the ga, mana was just a basic stat bar.

And the player omitted the process of dealing with it.

Because it’s a ga.

But in this world, mana was so important.

It was a worldview in which even the commoners who carried heavy loads could use mana to lift their luggage more easily.

So I was just copying one of the key characters’ training thods to get more familiar with mana.

A very, very simple practice of wielding a sword with a mana all over my body until I’m exhausted.

Having lost all my strength, I lay down on the side of the wall of the training ground.

This ti, neither the knowledge of the ga nor the performance of fraudulent items could solve this problem.

***

Around when the surroundings beca dim and the buildings lit up one by one.

I led my throbbing body out of the drill hall.

Indeed, there was no significant effect in one day.

My whole body was a disgrace.

Bones creak and muscles struggle to rest.

‘I still have so ti before the test, but I was too greedy.’

I can’t do anything more today.

I should go back to the dormitory and take a deep rest.

On my way back to the dormitory with a desperate walk.

The appearance of the character approaching from the other side of the boulevard is familiar.

“Ha.”

There is a snort as soon as I notice her presence.

‘I didn’t see her at the entrance ceremony… But it seems like it’s not that she didn’t enter the school.’

Not only is she the main character, but the girl I’ve been searching for since the entrance ceremony.

A white coat over a uniform as her signature.

Her brilliant platinum blonde hair shines brilliantly with the bright moonlight as a light.

As I slowly got close to her.

It was a relief.

If she hadn’t existed in this world, things would have gone so much different.

She was just that important to .

Perhaps a lot more than when she’s in the ga.

Her golden eyes were so close now that I could see them with my own eyes.

If this was the ga and I was the player, I’d talk to her at this ti… But I knew it might not happen.

But she didn’t walk past and stopped right in front of .

I had no choice but to stop because of her who blocked from the front.

“…”

“…”

I was wondering if I should say sothing, but there’s no way she would speak up and I could hear her voice.

She was just watching with her mouth shut.

Eyes that seem like a lot of thoughts are passing by.

Her expression is complicated, and only indescribable emotions can be felt.

“May I help you…?”

“…”

There was no answer.

She ended up standing there for a long ti, and then passed by, staring at .

‘What the hell just happened?’

I looked back at the ridiculous sight, but only the back of her walking silently past can be seen.

Her na is Aizel Ludwig.

I tried to save her by doing countless retries in the ga.

…This ga, I an, the only ‘regressor’ in this world.
