Academy’S Weapon Replicator 492
Chapter 133: Eve (2)
No matter which god of mythology there are, there are usually many good-looking men and women.
One of the evidences is that in Greek mythology, a conflict occurred between the three goddesses when they offered to give a golden apple to the ‘most beautiful goddess.’
There is no doubt that Athena and Hera are incomparable beauties.
So, what kind of god is Aphrodite, the so-called ‘goddess of beauty’? How beautiful is Aphrodite, who is known by everyone to have the greatest beauty?
“Ha, I’m bored.”
The Royal Palace of Palma has an extravagant outbuilding that is comparable to the king’s residence.
A secret place where only the King of Palma can enter and whose interior is not revealed to anyone.
And there is a woman inside the annex.
Since she approached the king, King Palma has not seen any other woman.
Her meetings with the Queen have long since lasted only her public appearances, and the King comes to this outbuilding to see her whenever she has time, no, even if it means taking her own time.
“I wonder if this boredom will go away by tomorrow.”
Even the relaxed yawn is alluring, and the flowing golden hair seems to sprinkle golden dust every time it shakes.
Aphrodite. She has long since had King Palma under her control.
The king was reduced to a servant who served Aphrodite, and if he followed her words, he could die.
This is partly because of Aphrodite’s outstanding appearance, but also because of her characteristics, which also make her the goddess of love. It is also the power of ‘Kestos Himas’, a belt given to her as a gift by her husband Hephaestus in the past.
“Tsk.”
Aphrodite checked her appearance in her mirror and quickly felt bad.
Because the scar left on her side was visible to her eyes.
Same kind of wound as Poseidon. After this blow, Aphrodite was stranded in her capital. It is impossible for her to even leave the capital, let alone return to Olympus.
‘Are you okay. All she had to do was get the golden apple and then…’
In the original myth, the golden apple had no particular efficacy other than being a medium for the conflict between the three goddesses.
However, after Ragnarok suddenly struck, the meaning of the golden apple completely changed.
Aphrodite does not know the reason, but the golden apple was given the effect of ‘repairing the body of the god’. It is clear that the reason is Ragnarok, but we do not know what the process is.
If you can eat it, you will be able to heal the wounds that caused Aphrodite to be tied to this earth. She is the only hope to return to Olympus.
‘But in order to eat it, you must be chosen by a human.’
Before Ragnarok, golden apples were not that valuable.
It is simply a token of being the ‘most beautiful goddess’ and an item that protects her pride as the goddess of beauty.
So Aphrodite accepted Zeus’s offer to mediate.
God’s power and power will be proven by themselves, but beauty is a matter for humans to decide. Therefore, in order to obtain a golden apple, one must be chosen by humans in some way.
Hera and Athena agreed, and of course Aphrodite, the goddess of beauty, also agreed. Not only could she not be defeated by her beauty, but Zeus could not be offended by such a matter.
‘Thank goodness she had to go through some annoying steps, but this time.’
Things changed after Ragnarok.
Her wounds were created that bound her to the earth, and her golden apples were endowed with a restorative effect on her body.
Now, golden apples have become a ‘must-have’ item.
However, the golden apples are now managed by humans. Twelve paladins take turns guarding it using a code. It is waiting for the right time to offer it to the most beautiful goddess.
Even if she tried to force it, she just couldn’t get it because of Zeus’s ‘statement’. ‘Beauty chosen by humans’ is needed.

However, Athena and Hera have gone to the world of salvation and cannot come here. Same goes for Zeus. The only thing that is possible for them is to bestow divine power on humans and possess them.
So should we wait indefinitely until they descend here? If her faith grows enough for them to descend, wouldn’t her chances of winning actually decrease? That’s completely unacceptable.
So Aphrodite used her shortcut.
To obtain a golden apple, all you have to do is be chosen by humans in some way.
If God cannot come, let us use humans. Designate her the most beautiful human and let her choose her.
For this plan to succeed, she must make the Paladin admit to her shortcomings, and she will need someone other than the human she has appointed.
So she entered into a league with the devil. That was Bael.
At first, Bael was vehemently opposed to the idea that he would have to pretend to be a god, but after some time, she changed her position. It was a ploy to attract Satan by using the war against God as a threat.
Afterwards, Bael attempted to contact paladins or those who wanted to become paladins using various demons, and some of them were successful.
From Aphrodite’s point of view, it did not matter whether he returned to the demon world before the war broke out through Bael’s plan, or whether the war actually broke out.
What matters is that she is selected during the voting process.
As long as you get the golden apple, everything after that will be good.
‘Luffy may not match my appearance, but her choice is already decided.’
Hera is fake anyway. The devil is impersonating you.
The devil doesn’t care about anything other than winning this vote.
When the voting day comes, victory is assured as long as you give Rufina her characteristics.
In any case, with King Palma’s cooperation, she can completely hide herself and watch. She placed her body in the cozy and comfortable car.
* * *
Finally, the next day.
On the morning of voting day, the capital was overflowing with people.
Bruna and Rufina were already standing in the square, and paladins, including Charon, were placed in their designated seats.
In front of the square, there are partitions and ballots for secret voting, and all ballots will be collected and quickly counted by Magongje.
“Will war really break out here?”
Elodie arrived late last night. She asked Fron Deer next to her.
Of course, both are wearing masks.
“If you leave it alone, it will definitely happen. Even now, possessed gods are flying here from the Palind Continent.”
Crows have been placed nearby, and Poseidon will block them for a while, but that cannot continue forever.
For some reason, the gods are not yet visible from the sea side. Are you spending a lot of time on the Palind Continent?
“People with divine powers are not limited to Palind. He’s here in Agoris too, probably hiding among the crowd, biding his time.”
“Why don’t they attack the demon right now?”
“Firstly, there are too many people, secondly, it is impossible to distinguish between devils and humans, and thirdly, because this vote is quite important.”
The gods here are roughly aware of the situation in Agoris. You also know that the conflict between humans is on the verge of explosion.
So the easiest sign is civil war.
When humans start fighting among themselves, the meaning of God protecting humans disappears. They will immediately try to punish the demons who are pretending to be gods. They won’t even care if one or two people die in the process.
‘I guess Bael’s plan has almost completely collapsed.’
Bael wants to return to the demon world, so he is pretending to be a god, but Satan makes no move. Or maybe he’s just wandering around in the demon world so you can’t see him.
‘I’m also concerned that I can’t see the gate.’
Frondier had met Astaroth’s men not long ago. He must have used the gate that leads here from the Demon World, but Gregory hasn’t found that gate yet.
“So, after this vote is held, will a civil war inevitably break out?”
“No matter what the outcome is, the opposing forces will not be convinced.”
But if Aphrodite really exists, the Rufina she appoints would probably be chosen by her.
Frondier looked at the two women, Bruna and Rufina, in the square.
‘She’s definitely a beauty. It was chosen as the most beautiful in the capital. ‘I don’t know who will be chosen just based on appearance.’
But if Aphrodite wants to win, she’ll do something. Since she is the goddess of beauty, it won’t be that difficult for her.
“… Oh.”
Then Elodie raised her head.
Something caught her mana sense.
Some kind of power pouring into Rufina.
“It looks like it’s started.”
Fron Deer nodded her head at Elodie’s words.
She feels it with his sixth sense as well. Power flowing from a parked car in the distance.
Aphrodite is there.
‘… Wait. However.’
Frontier looks at Elodie.
What Aphrodite is using now isn’t magic, right? It must be the power of God.
How does Elodie’s mana detection detect that?
“Frondier, look over there.”
Elodie looked at the crowd with her fingers.
People are slowly starting to pay attention to Rufina. It is the result of Aphrodite’s power.
“That’s amazing.”
Frondier looked at Rufina.
Her appearance hadn’t changed at all since before, but she suddenly started looking more attractive. Besides, she didn’t do it with magic, so she doesn’t feel anything artificial.
‘With that level of power, even if it were Elodie,’
Now that Elodie is wearing a mask, Frondier tries to recall Elodie’s original face.
… Hmm.
The power of God is not omnipotent.
‘There is no particular change on Bruna’s side. There’s no way Hera could stay still. As expected, Bruna’s side is fake, not Hera.’
Boom─
At that time, Frontier’s phone rang.
[Frondier. This is Arald.]
“Say.”
[Charon does not seem to have divine powers as expected.]
“How did you know?”
[You can see a lot of tension on Charon’s face. His posture and expression are clearly different from other paladins. It seems that I have sensed divine power that has arrived nearby. I think I understand the situation.]
I can’t believe I understand that now.
“If possible, he would like to cover up the vote itself before the vote ends.”
The best way to prevent a civil war is to eliminate the cause itself.
If you can stop voting, that’s best.
But most of the methods he comes up with endanger people, and there are too many potential threats for him to step forward.
There are demons here, gods possessing humans, and especially Athena possessing Kala.
We will also respond depending on what happens after the vote.
[… Frontier.]
At that time, Arald’s voice on the phone changed.
“Why?”
[… Well, how should I explain it?]
Arald is unusually hesitant.
“What?”
[… [There was a big problem.]
Just when Frondier was trying to scold him, saying, “What on earth do you mean?”
Frontier was also discovered. I also saw Elodie next to me.
A square full of people, far away.
Pink hair that you can immediately spot even in such a large crowd.
No, it’s not just about the hair.
“Oh, really. What else is God? “Your clothes are all messed up.”
The woman grumbles something and walks leisurely through the crowd of people who, for some reason, are giving way to her.
My clothes were worn out and I was wet from head to toe. I don’t know where it came from, but it is dirty with dust and blades of grass.
Her hair, eyes, and skin sparkled with water.
“Ah! This is the vote I heard about on the way! “The two most beautiful people in the capital!”
She doesn’t speak particularly loudly. She just admired it.
But gradually, the crowd becomes quiet.
She doesn’t know the situation.
She doesn’t know the information.
She is not wearing a mask like the Frontier group.
She turned her shining eyes onto the square, all because of her appearance.
After seeing Bruna and Rufina,
Cybel Forte.
“… Hmm.”
And soon, Cybel smiled faintly.
“… No way, he.”
Elodie opened her mouth.
She, Elodie, is of course self-conscious of her own appearance.
However, it is not necessarily revealed.
For her, her appearance is a minor issue as she walks her path as an archmage.
However, Cybel is not like that.
She clearly knows how effective her appearance is,
It is also easy to unleash its charm to its fullest potential.
And above all, it is something I have always done.
If there is a parameter called ‘bewitchment’.
Saibel spoke while fully charged.
“I can’t lose.”
Like a joke.
