Danmachi: The Blind Swordsman

—-------------

Chapter-1

—-------------

In the unknown village-

"998, 999, 1000" The boy, about 14 years old with black hair, was wearing a blindfold swinging the wooden sword on empty grass ground while whispering as the sweat covered his body. 

"Phew~~finally finished today's daily task" As he said this, he dropped his wooden sword while he sat down on the ground. 

"It seems finally the time has come to depart to Orario" Young man mummer this as he stands up. 

His name is Yuno Or.….at least in this world, people named him Yuno. 

Yuno originally didn't belong to this world. He was reincarnated in this world 14 years ago.

At that time, he was a baby abandoned in front of a village. 

But later on, he was adopted by an old Dwarf, a blacksmith in the village.

But he found out that he was blind in this life. He doesn't despair like an average person if they are in his condition. 

After all, in his previous life, he was also born blind, but due to having a loving family, he managed to adapt to his inability to see. 

Later on, hearing stories of people in the village about adventures and Orario, he concluded that he is reincarnated in an anime world called Danmachi. 

Even though he can't see in his previous world, his little brother is a big fan of anime, so he always talks to him about anime. 

But fortunately, he got a system like most reincarnated stories he heard from his previous world. 

As he focuses on his mind and his system appears in his mind. 

[ Name- Yuno ]

[ Current template- Blind Admiral ]

[ Template progress- 24.80% ]

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

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

He got a template system and also got a template from one piece.

Fujitora hears many things about this character from his brother because he is one of his favourite characters. 

Like how powerful his devil fruit was, how mighty his haki was, and not to mention, even after having those powers, he still was a kind-hearted man who tried to save everybody. 

He also tries to relate him to Yuno because both are blind, but they are kind and think of someone else before themselves. 

He got up again and started walking up towards the house. 

Even though he is indeed blind but due to his observation of haki, he can see his surroundings and walk without any problem. 

As he walks towards his house, he can sense the surroundings since the children are playing with each other, people are working in the fields, and women are doing housework. 

He quickly arrived in front of one shabby-looking house, opened the door then went inside.

The house was empty because the Dwarf he was adopted by died due to old age just the previous year. 

The Dwarf has no family, children, or wife just because he was obsessed with blacksmithing. 

As he remembers one time when he asked the Dwarf why he adopted him, he replied, 'I only adopted you because I know my time is going to end, but before that happens, I only want someone to carry my teachings, even if that person can't see.' 

Even though he always says that he knows it is not true because he can always choose any other child from this village, he picked a blind child. 

Smiling sadly as he remembers the past, he moves towards the table and then picks up one wooden cane. 

But then he suddenly pulled the handle of that cane as the one beautiful blade came out. 

*Swoosh*

This blade was the last creation of his late grandpa. It was made at his request because he heard from his brother in a previous life that a crane with a blade was the weapon usually used by the Fujitora.

He then put the back blade in the cane again, making it look like any regular cane used by a blind person. 

He then washed and changed into new clothes. He is now wearing a black T-shirt and grey pants. 

He then quickly packs up his belongings into a tiny bag and goes outside with the bag again. 

*Thud*

He closed the door and then locked it, as he joined his hands together as he thought in his mind, 'Gramps, today finally the day has come where I will finally begin my journey as an adventurer but don't worry, I will come back time to time to meet you, so please rest well.

He then turned around left towards the farms, as one transport carriage carried the crops towards Orario. 

His relationship with other villagers is a business relationship in which he usually repairs or makes new tools for villagers in exchange for valis. Other than that, he doesn't have much interaction with other people. 

After a while, he reached the carriage. The carriage was loaded with crops, and the driver smoked outside the carriage. 

"Good morning, sir." Yuno greeted him as he came near him. 

The old man turned towards Yuno and said, "oh kiddo, it's you, now tell me, are you still going Orario to become an adventurer."

"Yes, sir, after all, this is my dream to become an adventurer and explore the dungeon," Yuno replies with a determined expression. 

Seeing this, the older man only sighs that he doesn't want this blind kid to risk his life.

If anyone asked Yuno how he was able to walk right and how he was able to identify people, he also told them that because of his inability to see, his other senses became strong. 

No matter what people say to him, he always tells them that he will become an adventurer, no matter what. 

"Anyway, sir, when are we leaving for Orario?" Yuno asks the Alaskan. 

The older man exhaled the smoke as he spoke. "Carriage is ready. Let's head out now."

"Alright," Yuno said as he put his bag in the carriage and sat next to the crops. 

The older man also sat in the driver's seat as he took the leash of the horses. 

"Be Ready, Kiddo. This is one big trip??" he said as he swung the leash. 

"heeeeeeeee" As the horse started to move.

...

During the journey, they take time to time breaks for refreshment. 

After 4 hours of journey… 

Currently, the lower world consists of a continent and islands such as the Far East. Most of the areas explored are mainly around Orario due to the story.

As they are the only place with a dungeon, Orario is the strongest city in the world, with many first-class adventurers. However, a select few cities and countries worldwide have a few adventurers that are Level 3 and above, such as Telskyura or the Empire.

In addition, three locations across the world are known as the three great unexplored regions of the world, and so far, two of them are known: Orario and Dragon Valley.

They finally arrived near Orario, with one tall tower going through the sky. 

The tower is called Babel tower. 

Babel was built to stop the monsters within the dungeon from escaping. It was originally the same size as the buildings but was intentionally destroyed when the first Gods came down to earth. Those Gods later rebuilt it as it currently stands.

But now, the Guild owns the Babel to watch and take care of the dungeon. The first twenty floors are filled with Familia business, facilities, and money exchanges. 

The Hephaestus Familia has shops on floors 4-8. Above that are living areas of the most prominent Gods in Orario, known as the Private Rooms, whereas Goddess Freya lives on the top floor of Babel. 

Babel has a total of 50 floors. 

They parked near the main gate as Yuno came down from the carriage with a bag on his shoulder and a crane in his hand. 

"Alright, kiddo, it looks like our journey has ended." The older man said as he looked towards the yuno. 

"Thank you, sir, for everything you have done so far," Yuno said as he bowed to the old man. 

The old man waved his hand as he said, "No worries, kiddo, just promise me one thing you will do your best to stay alive" As the last part, he said with some severe expression. 

Yuno, hearing that, smiles as he remembers his old man as he said, "I promise."

"Good, then goodbye, kiddo," the Old man said as he moved his carriage towards the second gate where all the cargo carriages passed. 

"Goodbye, sir, take care," Yuno said as he saw the old man moving the carriage towards the second gate. 

Then he also moved to the first gate, where one long line was. 

He quickly stands at the end of the line quietly. 

After 20 minutes… 

His turn comes as he stands in front of the guard. 

Guard was stunned at the sight of him. 

And this is normal because he is too handsome, which can even rival the appearance of the sun god Apollo. 

Fair skin, Shining black hair, with a height of 165 cm, and a sharp angelic face. 

Originally his body had a fairly well-defined musculature. Slim but ripped body, a pronounced 8-pack of abdominals on his stomach, defined pecs, and thick legs with visible power. His body is not bulky or too inflated, but rather the perfect body for an athlete.

Alas, his body hides by his clothes. Otherwise, the guard will say he is more handsome than a God. 

He then noticed his cane and his blindfold and couldn't help but feel pity for a boy who has a handsome appearance but isn't able to see it. 

Yuno then handed his papers to guards for check-in Orario. 

Guard quietly took papers without saying anything. After checking all the papers, he returned them as he said, "All good, you are now going inside."

"Thank you, sir." Yuno thanked the guard. 

"No need to thank me, after all, this is my job, but you should take care of yourself." the guard replied, referring to his condition. 

Yuno smiled at his concern and said, "I will." he started moving forward using the cane to avoid unwanted suspicion. 

As he entered the gate, he murmured, "Here I come, my adventure." As he senses the beautiful scenery of Orario by his observation haki.
