The Academy’s Weapon Replicator - Chapter 572

Episode 572

Chapter 151 Summoning (3)

I kept falling down with Selena.

bang!

Boom!

Breaking down barriers one by one.

There were several layers of barriers, but fortunately, the gaps between each one were not that narrow. I was able to move between them and hit their weak points.

“Selena! How much is left on the needle?”

“12 shots to go!”

That is, I used about half of it.

“But the next one is the last one!”

“Yeah, I feel it too.”

The last remaining layer. There, I feel a mana of a different dimension from the barrier I’ve seen so far.

“… … Ugh.”

Selena furrowed her brows.

“I don’t see any weaknesses.”

“What? It’s completely flawless?”

“No, it has too many weak points, and it moves at such a fast pace that it’s hard to hit a single point.”

The barrier is ultimately magic.

If the flow of mana is fast and the defense is purely high, is there a way to increase the weakness?

But if that’s the case.

“It just so happens that it’s just the right timing.”

“yes?”

I opened one hand.

Weaving, Black River, Mana of the Nine Worlds

Rank – Divine Position

Chryselacatus, Iokeira

I made a bow and arrows.

“ruler.”

“……yes?”

“You shoot.”

Selena was startled by my words.

“P, how can I use Lord Frondi’s weapon… …!”

“Okay, this is an arrow.”

I deliberately placed an arrow in Selena’s hand and placed it on the bowstring.

“Now just pull and release.”

“P, Mr. Frondi!”

“You can see everything with your own eyes, right?”

“… … !”

“That barrier probably has some kind of divine power resistance, but it’s an arrow surrounded by the mana of the nine worlds. It should be able to break through the resistance.”

At those words, Selena opened her eyes wide for a moment and looked down, as if she could see the entire barrier in one glance.

“……All right.”

Selena took a deep breath after saying that and pulled back the bowstring. She was very careful, as if she was handling something precious.

… … To be honest, I don’t think it’s necessary to go that far, since you’ll hit it anyway even if you just take a quick look and shoot.

Ssut─

Pavabat!!

Iokeira stretched out and exploded like a firecracker.

The number isn’t that high since Selena doesn’t carry that many auras, but it’s enough.

Pubberbug!

The arrows flew individually and pierced through various parts of the barrier. To be sure, I can’t tell the difference between the points where the fireworks were fired.

Clang!

But it definitely worked.

The last barrier was shattered like a broken glass window.

“Okay, let’s go.”

“yes!”

I hugged Selena again and tried to minimize the area she fell on, just to increase my speed a little.

… … To be honest, I was impatient right now.

I don’t know how far Atji’s soul has reached. I heard that it ends when it passes through Tartarus.

If we believe Belphegor’s words, Atzier has not yet reached Tartarus. He must be resisting.

But there is always one chance.

I will always be anxious until I see Atjie with my own eyes.

But I have already consumed too much to spread my wings and use Aura.

‘It seems like my aura tolerance has increased a bit since I became a demon, but the forced march is still long.’

I have come here without rest since I heard the news of Atji’s death in Agoris.

… … Honestly, I feel strangely free of fatigue, but I don’t know how long this will last.

In addition, Selena’s stamina must be taken into consideration. The speed of the fall itself would be quite a burden on her body at the moment.

“Lord Frontier.”

“Oh, yeah?”

“I can see the floor.”

“… … ! So, what’s the ground like? Is it lava?”

“… … No. It just looks like a bare floor. It’s a strangely clean floor.”

We reached the bottom of the volcano, but it wasn’t lava. It’s kind of ironic.

After a while, I could see the floor, and just as Selena had said, it was a rough floor. However, it didn’t feel artificial, and it seemed like the original material.

Wow!

I spread my wings as I neared the ground. Selena’s arms around me tightened slightly.

Sigh.

And then slowly put his feet on the ground.

Selena and I looked around almost reflexively.

… … This place is strangely long, extending only forward and backward. It’s so wide that it doesn’t really feel like a street. It’s wide enough for four subway trains to go back and forth.

This is definitely a passage. A passage leading to Tartarus.

“Now then, the question is which direction leads to Tartarus.”

Tartarus is hell. In Greek mythology, it is a prison for the worst sinners.

So I thought there would be some malicious spirits swarming around, but my intuition tells me nothing.

Looking at the direction the souls were heading, I thought that would be Tartarus.

‘… … Of course, I can’t feel it even in Aji.’

If I could sense Atji’s soul, I would definitely recognize him. No matter what, he was my older brother. I was confident that I would never confuse him.

But I can’t feel even a single soul, let alone Ajie.

“This is difficult. Should we just walk in one direction?”

“… … .”

“Selena?”

I looked at Selena when she suddenly became quiet.

Selena continued to look around, frozen, or rather, frightened.

“Do you feel something?”

“… … No. I don’t feel anything. But… … .”

Selena’s eyes narrow.

“… …It’s getting dark.”

At Selena’s words, I looked around.

It was definitely getting darker. So dark that I only realized it after Selena spoke.

After realizing that, I started to feel nervous too.

It just gets darker. It’s easy to say that.

‘It’s getting dark, unnoticed by my intuition and Selena’s five senses.’

If you think that way, it’s only natural to feel nervous.

The darkness continued to deepen. If it got any darker, it would be shorter than the response distance between me and Selena.

I had no choice but to take out one of the mana crystals and say:

“Selena, stay next to me.”

fault!

At that moment, my mana crystal disappeared.

No, it’s not gone.

‘It was taken away… …!’

When I realized that and turned my gaze.

“Frondeer.”

There were three goddesses there.

Moirai.

They were here.

And among them, the goddess on the left,

“Selena!”

He was holding Selena’s neck.

“Ugh… … !”

Selena grimaced in pain. She tried to free her hands, but seemed unable to overcome the strength.

Then Selena’s eyes lit up,

Pot!

In an instant, the loaded needle was pointed at the goddess.

Ssut─

The goddess dodged the needle with a light movement.

‘……just now.’

The evasion just now.

It’s amazing enough that he was able to avoid Selena’s close-range attacks.

But to my eyes, it seemed as if the goddess had moved ahead of time.

‘… … Moirai.’

Yes, these are the Moirai.

They are the goddesses of fate.

Tadadadang!

At that moment, the sky suddenly brightened, and huge objects that had not been visible until just now began to appear on both sides of the passage.

It was a loom. Threads coming down from the ceiling were sucked into the loom, and woven together as they pleased, creating all kinds of fabrics.

It is a gigantic textile factory whose end is literally unknown.

Among those countless battles, there were Moirai and I.

‘How could you not notice such a huge factory!’

I swallowed.

I believed that if Selena’s and my sensing abilities were combined, we would be able to detect everything within the range, even if it was outside the range.

However, I could not detect anything of this size.

The goddess in the middle said.

“Frontier, you finally made it this far.”

“… …Moirai. Release Selena.”

I spoke with hostility. By the time I caught Selena, a smooth conversation with them was already impossible.

But the goddess in the middle sighed at my words.

“No need to use your strength, Frontier.”

“If you don’t release Selena immediately,”

“What are you going to do?”

The goddess on the right said.

“Frondier. Do you think that kind of threat will work?”

She looked genuinely bored.

“We are the goddesses of fate. We know what you will do and what will happen next as clearly as the back of our hands.”

“You can’t attack us.”

“You can’t save Selena.”

“That’s because that’s the way it is.”

They each say a word, a mixture of ridicule and curses.

I took them all in, looking at them for even a moment.

… … But Moirai’s words are true.

At the point where Selena is taken hostage, I become extremely weak.

So I asked.

“What do you want? If you don’t kill Selena right away, then you have something you want, right?”

The goddess on the left, the one holding Selena’s neck, spoke.

“Nothing in particular.”

“what?”

“With you coming here, we have already achieved our goal.”

Objective achieved?

Before I could question those words, another goddess spoke.

“We can see everything.”

“When you move, how you have been heading, and where you are heading.”

“Is that surprising? Frontier. You knew about our existence. Did you come all the way here without knowing it?”

They, the goddesses of fate, spoke as if they could really read the future.

I twisted the corner of my mouth.

“That’s funny. So you’re saying that it was your intention that this world became such a mess?”

Since Moirai is truly the Goddess of Fate, she can know everything?

That means I’ve been reading everything up to here.

Their plan was to mess with the world of the gods, release Fenrir, and kill the angels and various gods?

No way.

“Yes.”

As if to cut off my thoughts, the goddess in the middle spoke.

“Frontier, don’t overestimate yourself.”

“We just needed the right target, and it just so happened to be you.”

The goddesses on the left and right spoke.

“A suitable target?”

“Yes. As a reason to condemn humans.”

Then Selena reached out again, but once again the goddess dodged lightly, and Selena’s hand only brushed against her clothes.

“The people of this world were already beginning to doubt God.”

“Frontier, it doesn’t have to be you.”

“It doesn’t matter whether you exist or not.”

They keep spitting out words again. Every time I hear their words, I feel dirty.

“We knew everything.”

“Because we are the ones who led your way.”

I told him.

“What the hell are you talking about.”

Beep─

My words were cut off in the middle,

I turned my gaze in the direction where I heard a familiar sound.

… … The smartwatch made a sound.

I slowly raised my wrist, and even as I did so, the goddesses chattered to me.

“Do you understand now?”

“Did you know you were something special?”
