Danmachi: The Blind Swordsman

—--------------

Chapter- 32

—--------------

"Well it's better to buy a cheap weapon first" He makes his decision as he uses his storage skill to store all the magic stones and drops loot into his inventory. 

But before moving he checked his status-

[ Name- Yuno ] 

[ User Talent (permanent)- Space Magic (beginner), ??? (locked), ??? (locked), ??? (locked), ??? (locked), ??? (locked), ??? (locked) ]

[ Skills (permanent)- Identification Lvl.1, Dimensional pocket Lvl.1 ]

[ Mana Pool- 84/100 ] (mana regeneration- 2MP/min)

[ Shop ]

[ Current template- Blind Admiral ]

[ Template progress- 70% ]

[ Abilities- Gravity, Advanced Observation Haki, Advanced Armament Haki, Advanced Conqueror Haki ]

[ Daily task- 100 push-ups, 10 km run and 1000 vertical slashes ( completed ) ]

'Why it's not increasing' he noticed his template progress hadn't increased at all from the last time he checked. 

Every time he fights, there is always some progress no matter how small the progress. 

But now there is not even tiny progress, he doesn't know what's wrong. 

He exits the dungeon, he moves to find a local blacksmith but he has no idea where to start. 

Even though there are many blacksmiths in the Babel Tower but they all are expensive. 

But first, he needs to clean himself first after sparing with ais and then diving into the dungeon, his condition is not so clean. 

Since his plans for magic and dropped loot failed then he can only sell them to the guild. 

He reaches the guild and goes inside to exchange the materials for valis. 

Eina who attended her regular desk and saw him enter smiled. 

During this week eina is the one who Regularly receives yuno during this whole time.

So somehow their relationship has become like elder sister and little brother. 

She regularly warns him while telling him about accidents that can happen in the dungeon and reminds him to be safe. 

But during this time she is also able to understand one thing about him even though he is blind. 

He can somehow see maybe with some kind of skill or something, since he can move around with a blindfold on his eyes. 

Since it comes that in his private information, she can't causally ask him about it. 

"So what I can do for you today??" Eina asked this with a tired smile on her face since she already knew why he always came into the guild. 

"Can you exchange these for valis?" Yuno asked this as he put all the stuff on the table that he gathered in the dungeon. 

He had already taken the bag out of his dimensional pocket outside the guild to avoid suspicion. 

"Alright," Eina replied as she started to count the materials on the table. 

This is not something new for her because during all this time yuno always comes to her with full of materials to exchange. 

Also, she felt relieved after seeing him bring these many materials without being injured because it meant he must have been very good at fighting or had good skills. 

No matter what the reason, she still every time reminds him not to go overboard and also tells him daily news about the dungeon she hears from co-workers or some other adventurers who come to her in the hope that will help in some way. 

After finishing giving him valis she looks at him and asks "Anything else?"

Yuno nodded his head and replied "I need some cheap weapons"

"Why??? I remember you having a good weapon already" Eina asked with a confused face since she remembered him having a good sword already. 

Not to mention if he by chance needs any weapon then why would he need a cheap weapon if he already earning very well enough to buy a decent weapon from Hephaestus familia. 

"Nothing wrong with my weapon, it's just I need some weapon to….test out something," Yuno said while shuttering since he didn't know how to explain it. 

"Then if you want a weapon then how about a basic dagger or sword which are given free to new adventurers" Eina suggest to him as she remembers he didn't take any weapon at the beginning which are provided by the guild. 

"Yes, that will definitely help" Yuno excitedly replied as he thought it would work. 

"Wait here," Eina said as she went back into the staff room. 

After 5 minutes...

She comes back with a short sword in her hands. 

"Here" She handed the weapon to yuno with a small smile on her face. 

"Thank you very much" Yuno took it and started to examine it with his hands. 

From his work experiences and the knowledge taught by his grandfather, he can check the quality just by touching and smelling. 

And the quality of this blade is not something yuno finds Satisfying or maybe his standards become high after using his weapon for a long. 

But since he only wants to exchange this weapon for the system maybe quality doesn't matter. He then quickly placed the sword inside his bag. 

"If you are not happy with it then you go to the lower floors of Babel Tower, you can find good pieces of equipment with low prices easily" Seeing him somewhat dissatisfied after touching the blade, eina suggested another option. 

Since yuno already told her about his life in the village and that his grandfather was a good blacksmith who made his blade. 

"There are many recruits blacksmiths of Hephaestus familia Even though they are new recruits you may find some good equipment at a very low price" Eina explain to him as she gets back to her desk. 

*nod* *nod*

"Good" Seeing him listening to herself very carefully, eina nodded in satisfaction. 

"By the way I can't see your supporter today," Eina asked this as she remembered the little pallum girl from soma familia.

"Lili? She is on break today, Since she is working very hard for many days I give her a little break" Yuno replied to eina. 

"Is that so" Eina felt a little relieved after hearing that. 

She is a little cautious around her, not because she is dangerous but because she belongs to a soma familia which she heard rumours about. 

All the members of that familia are very highly addicted to sake which is made by their god.

Stealing, killing or any other dirty work, members of that familia will do anything to earn money, so that they can buy sake that their God-made. 

Even to taste the failed product of their God, they will not hesitate to kill their fellow familia members. 

She even warned yuno before but he said he already knew about it and she was safe. 

"Alright then I will see you again," Yuno said as he began to leave. 

"See you again, and remember to be careful in the dungeon," Eina said to yuno as he moved out of the guild. 

….. 

Yuno after leaving the guild moves towards the church but before moving he makes sure to put his bag in his storage skill. 

After 15 minutes more walking he reaches the church. 

"You came early today," Hestia said while she lying on the couch. 

Yuno nodded his head as he said "Hestia-sama, I am going to the kitchen to make myself something to eat, do you want something?"

"Anything made by you is fine" Hestia replied as her eyes shone. After all, how can she say no to yuno food? 

Yuno quickly moved to the kitchen as he entered the kitchen he breathed out of relief. 

Since he didn't tell her about his spar with ais, he could only divert the topic. 

Before making something, he takes out the weapon he got from eina and uses Identification skills on it. 

[ short sword ]

[ Type- equipment ]

[ Quality- garbage ]

[ Description- a basic sword made by the novice blacksmith ]

[ Unexchangable ] ( Reason- Remember the System is not a garbage collector )

*sigh*

"Not again" He couldn't understand why anything was not working. 

He gave up and went to make something to eat. 

... 

After the meal….. 

Hestia updates his status which makes her eyes widen in shock.
