The Blind Saint Who Can See - Chapter 65
Only Noblemtl
#65. The Land of the Black-Haired (7)
Alice Sparkle.
The 651-year-old elf was lost in thought.
“Thank you for your kindness. But can I not drink the elixir right now?”
“Is there a reason?”
“Justina, … there is a colleague of mine who is blind. I intend to give it to her.”
Instead of drinking the elixir, the dazzling blonde girl chose to give it to the adult who had cared for her.
Why would that be?
The pain from a broken magic circuit is nothing compared to a slight limp in your leg.
When I relayed that verbatim, I received this reply:
“Her visual impairment is an acquired injury. Perhaps… … .”
This time I was truly amazed.
‘Is he really a colleague of an adult?’
Because I’m an adult.
It’s a nostalgic sound.
“I want to eat kimchi stew! Ahhh!”
“Alice, look at this! How can such a sight exist?”
“I will save this world. Even if it means giving my life.”
“It was a fun adventure. Meeting you, really… … .”
“I liked you a lot, Alice.”
Finally, when that guy became allies with the Demon King.
As a child, Alice simply watched death.
Unfortunately, Alice still had a long time to live after that guy died, so she started doing things she couldn’t do then.
The development of elixir.
Elves have long lifespans and rarely die. Even if they die, they can be resurrected from the World Tree where they were born before they reach seven hundred years of age.
So, the elixir was not necessary in the first place.
Unless you have a loved one, that is.
‘Is it foolishness?’
Anyway, that guy is dead.
But I couldn’t give up.
After about three hundred years of research, Alice finally obtained a vial of thick golden liquid.
What did I think when I saw the result?
‘If I had this, the guy would have been in less pain.’
Maybe I could have saved him.
Is that why?
He gave the elixir to a girl who was suffering from the same disease as the guy.
Since the girl didn’t drink the elixir, it seems like the finished product will end up going to the adult of this generation.
Alice chuckled.
‘Was it a meaningful study?’
I heard that this generation’s adult version is quite heavy, unlike the previous ones.
The essence doesn’t seem to be much different, but what about the appearance?
Does he look like that guy?
“… Me too, I’m being a bit clumsy.”
Alice sighed.
It was a very depressing day for the first time in a long time.

“Phew, it’s over.”
Izumi, who was inside the cave, wiped her forehead with a refreshing expression.
The surrounding area was filled with the corpses of monsters.
“It was my first time fighting alone, so I was nervous, but it was easier than I thought.”
“you…….”
Daphne’s eyes were blank.
That would be the case, because the talent Izumi showed earlier was amazing.
Originally, swordsmanship was a discipline that had to be acquired gradually through long training.
How could Izumi, who had been playing around for 21 years since she was reincarnated, know that? She just waved it around as she pleased like a child who had picked up a stick.
It’s a martial art that would normally not work.
But it works. It works very well.
For Daphne, who had been familiar with proper swordsmanship, this was astonishing.
“Is this the end? Well, Yushu needs to hurry up and recover… … .”
Izumi, sharpening her sword, walks out of the cave. Daphne, who was watching from nearby while shooting a few arrows, hurries to follow her.
“excuse me.”
“huh?”
“that is.”
Daphne hesitated.
After seeing Izumi’s inaction, her liking for him grew even more than before.
However, the reason why his attitude became timid was simple.
It was because Izumi had been putting up a wall against her throughout the fight.
Sure, his attitude was like that of a cheerful man, but that was it.
It was hard to shake off the feeling that this was a relationship that would never be seen again once this was over.
“Are you going to continue your adventure?”
“Huh? Of course. I’m going to Sugok with my colleagues.”
“Then can I not go too?”
But is Daphne a person who would be discouraged by such things?
She confidently applied for a fellowship.
“Um, sorry! I can’t decide that on my own.”
And it was over in an instant.
“Why? You’re a warrior? Then aren’t you the leader?”
“He is a warrior, but… … .”
Izumi scratched the ball.
Here are two facts that no one knows about.
As fate would have it, the three of them, excluding Justinas, meet Daphne exhausted.
The Kharif Mountains are rough. They couldn’t use shortcuts, so they spent a week hunting monsters and sleeping outside. The sweet rest they found when they were struggling with fatigue was quite a blessing.
So the three of them had to stay in the elf village and take on the same quest. In addition, since Liliana’s magic circuit was not destroyed, there were four of them, including Daphne, and they had to experience their first party battle while subduing the source of the demons.
When you stand back to back, a sense of camaraderie naturally develops.
Izumiya is naturally friendly, and Liliana, who felt lonely as the only female in the party, welcomed the addition of Daphne, a woman. Cedric agreed, saying, “It would be nice to have a long-range support shooter.”
So originally, Izumi reached out to Daphne first.
“Daphne. Would you like to go on an adventure with us?”
do.
In this way, Daphne becomes a member of the warrior party, and Alice, who recalls past memories while looking at her daughter, gives them an elixir to bless their future.
– It should have been a development like that.
However, the butterfly effect caused by Justinas’ intervention completely distorted the plot.
Izumi, who came via the shortcut, wasn’t that tired, so she didn’t feel that grateful to Daphne for letting her stay overnight in the village.
Liliana couldn’t go hunting with Daphne because her magic circuits were destroyed. Also, since there was already a female member of the party, Justinas, there was no reason for her to be attracted to her.
Cedric was so distracted by Justinas that he couldn’t even meet Daphne. Of course, even if he had, he would have expressed his doubts, saying, “Hmm… … Is long-distance really necessary?” after already witnessing Liliana’s firepower.
“Anyway, I can’t take you as my colleague. I’m sorry.”
In this way, Justinas unknowingly abandoned the original party member.
Even the chess piece Liliana, who treasured the elixir, ate it all up.
For Justinas, it would be good news that he would secretly celebrate when he found out later, but for Daphne, it would be a tragedy because she had been robbed of the chance for adventure.

I woke up one night feeling refreshed. I rubbed my arms and legs a few times and declared.
“I guess everything is better.”
“thank god.”
Cedric sighed in relief.
Now there’s only one thing to do.
“We’d better get as many supplies as we can from this country. It won’t be easy to cross the desert.”
“I’ll go and come back.”
There was no objection.
Anyway, it’s obvious that I won’t get any good looks if I go around.
I can’t risk getting my CG back from the neighborhood punks. If that’s the case, I’d rather have a brainwashed prince.
The prince has some use for it, doesn’t he?
While I was enjoying a long-awaited rest and daydreaming, Cedric arrived carrying a cart.
“It’s a creature called a camel. It has short hair like caramel and a head like a donkey. It also has two humps and is said to be able to survive in the desert for a long time.”
The beast of burden pulling the cart was, unsurprisingly, a camel. In a country near the desert, camels seemed more useful than horses.
Anyway, Cedric and I left the city where we had stayed for one night in a cool mood.
=Izumi, Liliana. Can you hear me?
=Youth!
=I’ll be waiting in front of the entrance. Please come this way.
After sending the message, two people came to see me shortly after.
Okay, let’s get going with strength!
Before doing that, I was thinking of going to an elf village and going for the elixir.
“Justinas. I have something to tell you.”
“What is it?”
“They called it an elixir.”
Bam.
‘Huh?’
An unexpected treasure fell into my hands.
When I saw the golden glass bottle in my hand, I was so surprised that I asked,
“Did you know how to hunt automatically?”
“Automatic hunting… … what?”
Oh my. What are you saying in front of an NPC?
I quickly covered my mouth.
