Chapter 1: 1

EP.1 Blindfold That is Beyond Reason

For me, when good things follow, then misfortunes always come accordingly.

As if sweet luck is not within my means.

There was a special event in which a very rare item was given to only one person in my favorite game.

Since it was a single game, not an online game with PVP elements, people also thought that there would be such an event.

Of course, I applied too.

I didn’t want to win.

There was an event, so I applied for it, 

However, I was the one winner, and I never thought it would lead to “importation.”

Even though it’s a vivid reality, this familiar screen floating in the air, which is unrealistic, was enough to confuse me.

At first, I thought it was really a dream.

But it didn’t take long to realize this was real.

This world, which I was used to, was not a game or a dream, but a clear reality.

The early skills taken in the character creation window became a force of my own, and a special item “Blindfold” that I received before I was reincarnated became a precious item that could not be exchanged for anything.

And a nickname that I made without thinking much. 

Zetto has become my name in this fantasy world from now on.

I’ll wear a blindfold that covers my eyes, so I’ll be blind.

And if I’m a blind man, a sword is a must.

A blind swordsman 

How harmonious and cool.

The two words were the concept of this character that I came up with roughly.

When I touch my eyes to wake up to reality again, I can feel the thin cloth covering my eyes.

‘Blindfold That is Beyond Reason’

It’s a ‘legendary’ level item that is hard to see anywhere even now that the world in the game has become a reality. 

In terms of level, it was the best, the ultimate, and the most powerful that was placed at the end.

On the outside, it was just an ordinary white bandage, but as the name “blindfold” suggests, it was the right way to wear it when you covered your eyes.

The effect of this item, which was explained by the game company, had a fraudulent effect as it’s a high level item.

‘Experience increase 500%’ 

‘Weakness Detection lv.MAX’

‘Critical Hit Damage increase 300%’

Even if you leave out one of these, it’s a very good item effect, but… Nevertheless, I’m still at a loss.

The game was basically based on battle.

In other words, from now on, instead of using a keyboard and mouse, I have to lead my body directly to avoid the pouring magic and arrows, confronted with a real sword fight.

It wasn’t easy for me, who had never been able to fight properly in my life.

Fortunately, even with the blindfold covering my eyes, I can still see everything well.

This also has the effect of the Blindfold That is Beyond Reason.

I looked up at the sky which was dazzling with sunlight.

The sky was clear and blue.

On the street, I could see people walking in the same outfit as me.

There was nothing that I couldn’t see.

I could see through the blindfold without any blockage.

It was a bizarre and incredibly fantasy thing.

‘It’s already the entrance ceremony.’

Zetto, I mean, I was busily walking from early morning.

The last few days of being reincarnated are prologues for the game.

Today is the entrance ceremony of the ‘Innocence Academy’, which was the main background of the game.

Since it was a typical academy game, the story in the game can be seen as starting today, when the entrance ceremony is held.

Honestly, not entering an academy would also be a way to live in this world, but with the information I have from the game. 

In other words, as it was information inside the academy, I’d better use it within the academy.

That’s why, I thought that leaving the academy from the beginning wasn’t a good option.

In this medieval fantasy world, there is no place for a commoner without a surname like me to seek safe growth and success besides the academy.

Oh, and by the way. 

‘It’s further than I thought.’

I could ride a carriage to the academy with all my money, but I was afraid I was going to have to stop because ‘Carriage from outside cannot go further’.

Innocence Academy is an educational institution and a fairly large city.

I knew that it was a closed disposition, but I didn’t expect it to be this much.

There wasn’t much time before the entrance ceremony, so it was about the time when I hurried to move and passed the street corner.

ㅡTHUMP!

On the other side of the street corner, I bumped into something coming this way and fell.

“Gosh! You should watch where you…”

It was a woman with red hair.

She raised her voice as if she was angry, but then suddenly cut herself off. 

I slowly caught her face in my eyes, blankly touching the floor.

I could tell who she was at once by the look. That’s because she was the main character in the game.

A finely braided red hair of the same color of dark blood.

Fiery red eyes as if they were flaming up.

‘Yuri Clementine…’

Why did I have to bump into this woman?

The glory of the Earl of Clementine, who rose to fame on the continent with her fire magic.

The only heir to the Earl of Clementine and was called the ‘Flaming Flower’ because of her beautiful appearance… 

…Though she isn’t really fond of that nickname.

The most important thing in this situation is. 

Yuri is short-tempered.

Basically, she gets angry easily.

“I’m sorry. I didn’t concentrate…”

I scratched my head and spoke as low as I could.

Nothing good will happen if I get in the way of Yuri here.

As she was a major character, we’re likely going to encounter a lot in the future.

“…Oh.”

Suddenly, Yuri is speechless.

She was speechless for a while now.

“No, it’s not your fault. I should have been careful, too.”

Yuri slowly took a deep breath and answered in a raised voice.

Yuri Clementine apologized?

It was a rare unfamiliar image, but it’s not that I don’t understand.

From Yuri’s point of view, the blindfold was covering my eyes.

That’s right.

Looking like this, everyone would think that I’m a blind man.

A simple thing.

If someone covers their eyes with a bandage, people will obviously think that the person can’t see, and if not a blind man, there’s no reason to walk through the street and get into this.

I could see well, but from the perspective of others, certainly,  I was blind.

She must have wanted to pour out your anger as usual if her mood was bad, but if the opponent is blind, she would turn herself into a weirdo if she got mad.

The Yuri I know was a fiery woman who was angry all the time, but at least she knew how to keep the line.

I stopped lying on the floor and stood up, dusting off the dirt.

“From the color of the tie… I guess you’re entering the academy today, too. My name is Yuri Clementine.”

Yuri reached out her hand but as she looked at my blindfold, she let out an ‘Oh’ and didn’t know what to do.

Because she was cute in a clumsy way, I couldn’t help but smile.

“Haha. I already have a good feeling with just that much. My name is Zetto.”

So I reached out my hand and asked for a handshake.

The touch of her hand, which I only watched on the monitor screen, was very soft. I can’t believe that powerful flame magic pours out of this slender hand.

“Feeling…?”

“I can’t see, but I can feel what’s around me with other senses. If it’s not that uncomfortable to move my body.”

It’s no good to anyone to know that I can see clearly.

If she knows that this ordinary blindfold that she saw was a special item, it could endanger my life by an unidentified assailant that I have sought for. 

It’s a legendary item.

The value may be so high that it would be latched to the villains’ ears.

Above all, knowing the effect of the blindfold, I have to keep this blindfold on.

So I have no choice but to act blind.

Even with a plausible excuse.

Yuri let out an ‘Aha~’ as if she fully understood the explanation of the plausible made-up feeling.

As she and I were both freshmen, we naturally walked together.

“You must be a swordsman”

Yuri’s eyes touch the sword in my waist.

“My skill is still lacking to call myself a swordsman.”

“If you’re a swordsman, then you mean the swordsman in the east, right?”

I nodded my head in affirmation of Yuri’s words.

‘Swordsman’ is a real job in the game.

Isn’t a blind swordsman better than a blind knight?

The starting weapon, which was decided when making the character, was also deliberately chosen as the Eastern sword.

“As expected, you’re the esteemed daughter of the Clementine family. You have a wide view of knowledge.”

“Since I was young, I used to learn this and that annoying knowledge. This is nothing.”

Despite the obvious compliments, Yuri smiled softly as if she felt good inside.

I don’t think she was this funny when I played the game. Is she different in reality?

The difference between game and reality.

Things that were not possible in the game may become possible in reality.

For example, even if I could have improved my likability, it was in a game that did not lead to a relationship with the character, but if I were you now, I could date the person I wanted.

The most important thing is.

‘I don’t know if I can save the dead character no matter what choice I choose in the game.’

It meant a lot to me.

This is because I have also tried my best to save a certain character.

After thinking for a while, I could feel the crowd around me.

“I think we’re almost at the academy.”

“Come to think of it… How did you find your way before you met me?”

“Just… I asked the people around me for directions or walked along the path that many people headed for. I assumed that people were walking around the city at this time so there must also be many cadets.”

“Hmm… That’s a pretty smart way.”

Somehow, the conversation seemed to continue to be an inquiry into the life of the blind, but Yuri had no choice because she was born with curiosity.

As we walked along the road, the main building of the academy was finally revealed.

The main building of Innocence Academy, where talented young people from all over the continent gather, was emitting a grandeur worthy of its reputation.

The main story finally started.
