I Became a Blind Swordsman at the Academy

30. seal

At the same time as I was suffocating, I managed to shake off Sierra somehow.

If it can be said that the fact that he managed to hang on his back is what he threw away.

Sierra didn’t want to leave me at all, as if she had developed separation anxiety within a week.

“The friendship is so deep. It’s strange that a lump of Yogi is attached to a person’s body… but were you able to contact it…?”

“Yeah… well, that’s it.”

In response to my answer, Daedroth cleared his throat once and said, ‘Isn’t there anything strange anymore?’ He muttered something like that and then moved on.

“Anyway… things are important.”

Daedroth stood next to the completed urethra and said.

The urethra was wrapped in a luxurious cloth.

I approached Yodo with Sierra hanging from my back.

“It may not look like it to you, but… I paid a lot of attention to my own aesthetic sense. I designed it to match the girl from the East.

The urethra is usually named after the name of the soul that entered it.

So Sierra became ‘Sierra’ and ‘Yodo’.

Following Daedroth’s words, she slowly peeled off the cloth covering Sierra, layer by layer.

I was nervous without knowing why.

Is it because of the efforts made in the past?

Before long, Yodo appears.

A black sheath darker than that of a winter night.

Petals were embroidered on the handle.

Finally, the jewel on the pendant was embedded in the sword head of the urethra.

As far as I can see, it was of the highest quality.

‘The warehouse of the gold dragon…’

Gently, I ran my fingers from the tip of the scabbard to the handle.

Then Sierra’s body, which was hanging behind her, trembled.

[That… Disciple, don’t touch it with such a strange hand… The urethra is now connected to me…]

“Are you planning to stop me from even handling it, Master?”

I answered her with a smile.

The urethra was carefully lifted.

Grasp the scabbard and handle and check the blade.

ㅡSureureung.

The blade was red and the blade was black, so it was a well-matched color combination.

When the urethra is pulled out and left as it is, I feel the unrefined yogi gushing out.

ㅡ Tak.

“Just listening to the rustling of blades is full of spirits. Yogi also… I can feel the strength.”

I put my urethra back into the scabbard and said to Daedroth.

“To see such a yogi face-to-face and not get harmed… The warm touch of the master…? Are you going to seal it right away? No, do you know how to do it instead?”

“Sure. I’d like to seal it… I’d like to do it right away. Is there a suitable place nearby?”

“Hmm. Where would you like…”

While Me and Daedroth are talking about the seal, Sierra from behind starts talking to me.

[What would happen if you handled it without sealing it? The original woman had no intention of harming the disciple. ]

“If you handle the urethra without sealing it, it will slowly be eroded by the exhaled yogi. It will build up yogi in your body. Then… you will become a ‘yokai’.”

[Youkai…was it due to the urethra…]

After hearing my explanation, Sierra’s voice locks up. It seems that he once faced a monster.

“Youkai, they’re the ones I miss. There aren’t that many guys who have come running to make a urethra. It must be the influence of blood-sucking iron. Damn blood wizards… Just thinking about chewing up the ingredients of such a beautiful work.”

Daedroth, who roughly grasped the conversation between me and Sierra, spat out harsh words.

Thanks to the bright blood mages, possession of vampiric iron was taboo.

However, the main material of the urethra was bloodsucking iron.

So, making a urethra is against the law? I did not know the laws of each country on the continent in great detail.

It didn’t happen that I was wanted for carrying a urethra in the game… so I skipped it.

At least, if I don’t go around bragging that the thing in my arms is the urethra, I don’t think anything big will happen.

As the genre of the game was fantasy, knives with unusual blade colors overflowed with dirt. I remember that the urethra also had a variety of colors.

If it was properly sealed, it wouldn’t emit Yogi, so it would be difficult for someone else to identify it as Yodo.

Suddenly, the Daedroth, who had been tapping his fingers against the wall, approached me.

“A place to seal, I thought of a good place around here.”

“Let’s go right away.”

We immediately left the mansion and walked.

The place headed along the Daedroth was a vast field near the village.

I followed him through the field.

In the middle of the field, a huge tree was rooted.

“If it’s an old tree like this, it’ll have even a little bit of aura. It’ll help seal it.”

The Daedroth, who was petting the tree, looked at me and said.

[I don’t know what a ‘seal’ is, but I think it will be helpful to feel a little more at ease as I approach this tree. ]

I listened to Sierra and nodded.

Daeros noticeably avoided the spot.

Now, only me and Sierra remained around the old tree.

The sun was starting to rise, and a bright light was shining in the starlit night.

I knelt down in front of an old tree and pulled out the Yodo Sierra I was holding.

Soon, a strong yogi comes out.

ㅡchwak.

I slit my palm on the blade of the urethra.

Blood drips from my deeply cut palm.

I made the drops of blood stay in my urethra. The vampiric iron, which had been soaked in blood, was still in good health.

[Why, do you feel the blood…? Your body is getting hot…]

The urethra hums with Sierra’s reaction. Before long, she rises into the air with her eyes closed.

I ran down my palm and straightened my bloody index and middle fingers and skimmed through the blade of the urethra.

The blood was applied to imprint that I am the owner of the urethra.

Then he recites the lines he has seen in the game.

“I ask for a contract.”

The sun shines with a red light.

An enormous amount of yogis oscillate.

“I will honor you and make your wish come true. I hope you will be my strength.”

[ My wish is… ]

Sierra’s voice, which has become serious, echoes. The knowledge and process of sealing flowed in her head.

“Your wish… is to defeat ‘Sword Saint Chris’ with your swordsmanship.”

The heightened voice is carried along with the wind that blows across the field.

It was the seal of the urethra and the process of making a contract with the soul.

I thought this process would be easy as I had already talked with Sierra.

That is, until Sierra’s answer came.

[Wrong. ]

Sierra, floating in front of me, waved her arms in denial.

I was very embarrassed by her sharp infidelity.

‘What then…’

However, the sealing was still ongoing.

It’s not like she’s spouting lies in this state.

Because Yogi was engulfing his body, the faster he finished, the less strain his body felt.

I hurriedly calmed down my embarrassment and moved on.

“…then what is your wish? Will you dedicate yourself to fulfilling it?”

Sierra was silent for a while in response to my question.

Even though she must have been very focused.

[ …not leaving. ]

Shortly after, breaking the silence, Sierra spoke of her wish.

Sierra’s wind was easy, if easy.

don’t leave

For me, there was no need to abandon the urethra or abandon her.

However, it was strange that she really wanted it.

“To not leave you. Is that enough?”

[ Suffice. ]

I could feel beads of sweat running down my forehead and down my cheeks.

I don’t know why she wanted that, but I had to finish the seal quickly.

“I will conclude with this.”

I can feel Sierra’s yogi and the mana flowing through my body.

The Seal and Contract of Yodo was a power similar to the Oath of Mana.

Her yogi, which had entered my body, gradually merged.

The seal of her, the contract with her was being fulfilled.

“…”

Time passed and I sensed that the yogi that had risen like a haze had calmed down.

The sealing is all over.

I put the urethra back into the sheath.

ㅡ Tak.

The sound of the urethra being inserted echoes clear across the field, and Sierra approaches me.

[Do I have to protect it? ]

Sierra was back to normal.

“hahahaha… Didn’t you say something like this?”

[What should I do if the original woman’s true intentions are wrong? I had no choice but to answer that. Somehow, it seems that spouting lies is not acceptable in this process. ]

Sierra smiles bitterly.

“Why did it change…?”

Saying that, I tried to raise my knees, but my body staggered.

Because the seal was longer than expected, it consumed a lot of stamina.

ㅡPock.

Sierra supports my stumbling body.

[It has not changed. Sword Saint, I still want to defeat him. …But the short time I spent with you might have awakened a terrible thirst. ]

“I’m thirsty…”

I lay back on Sierra.

It wasn’t even cold, but my body was shivering.

[I’ve been holding on well for decades, but this short week… it’s especially hard to endure. Even if the blacksmith is aware of my existence, I haven’t been able to communicate with him…]

I silently leaned over Sierra and listened to her laments.

Her body, which was so cold when it was contained in the pendant, was now feeling warm warmth.

[When the endless emptiness came to me again, having no place to lean on… it was uncharacteristically scary. I’m sorry that I became a bad teacher. ]

Sierra’s voice, which had been echoing in her head, was trembling.

loneliness.

That emotion is sometimes terrifying enough to be compared to fear.

“Don’t worry. The contract will be kept. Of course, the Sword Saint will win.”

I held Sierra’s hand and spoke in a friendly voice. If her mental state became unstable after becoming a urethra, it did not seem to have a good effect.

Her trembling in my hands gradually subsides.

Before long, the Daedroth, who was watching from afar, walks towards us.

“Did the sealing go well?

Daedroth said to me with his arms crossed.

I immediately checked the status window in response to Daedroth’s question. There is nothing better to confirm success than this.

-Yodo (妖刀) ‘Sierra’ [Belonging]

She must have gained experience through this sealing, and she rose two levels at once.

‘Edward’s class…’

It was unfortunate, but it was fortunate that the labyrinth would open soon.

You can see the swordsmanship Yeokcheon (逆天) created by Sierra, which was newly created under the Demon Swordsmanship skill.

The word “unfinished” next to Yeokcheon seemed to mean that the swordsmanship was incomplete.

‘Is Reverse Heaven going up by 1 level for every 4 levels of demon swordsmanship…’

Skills acquired through demon swordsmanship were not directly invested in skill points.

If you invest skill points in demon swordsmanship, the level of that skill goes up as well.

However, depending on the power of the skill, the degree to which the level rose was different.

Sierra Liu Ja-wol, which was obtained from Sierra in the previous game, was 1 level for every 2 levels of demon swordsmanship, but Yeokcheon was twice that.

That would mean more power.

As I read through the status window, I saw the word belonging next to ‘Yodo Sierra’.

“…The sealing seems to have been completed.”

I answered with the corner of my mouth raised a lot as I removed the status window floating in the air.

I finally got the urethra I wanted so much.

“By the way… that… his posture is strange no matter how you look at it, so why not wake up?”

The Daedroth, who looked at me leaning against Sierra and touched his chin, said so.

“Maybe?”

[ Can not be done. The disciple of the original woman needs to rest a little longer. ]

I decided to take a little more rest following Sierra’s firm words.

The cool wind blowing from across the field tickles my downy hair.

Looking up at the sky, the stars that would soon be obscured by the sun were shining with all their might.

‘Maybe it’s because things went well, or because it saved me an hour.’

The world seemed peaceful today.
