The Academy’s Weapon Replicator - Chapter 10
Academy’s Weapon Replicator Episode 10 Chapter
3 Manipulating Fate (1)
“Today’s class is about ‘Aurors’.”
Basic combat skills lecture.
Ales, the teacher in charge, looked around at everyone and said.
The students lined up at the outdoor training center and listened to Ales’ explanation.
Combat skills-related classes are usually held here. Or, you can rent an auditorium or field.
“Human muscles have limitations. It is natural that it must grow sufficiently, but excessive muscles hinder movement and, as we know, muscles are inherently heavy. Ultimately, a fighter needs a body with an appropriate balance of flexibility, strength, and agility. In other words, you can’t just build muscles for strength.”
After saying that, Ales looked around. The gaze was directed at Aster.
“Hmm, Aster. “Please come forward.”
“yes.”
Aster stood next to Ales.
Ales placed his hands on Aster’s shoulders.
“A body like this can be said to have good balance. When muscles are appropriate, they increase agility, and when they are insufficient or excessive, they both decrease agility. In the case of Aster, it strikes the right balance well. “I hope everyone considers this level of muscle training as an example.”
Aster looked somewhat embarrassed.
Well, regarding Aster’s body balance, I strongly agree with Ales.
However, Teacher Aless was originally on the side of the common people. When dealing with its representative, Aster, it is very sweet.
“So, when it comes to increasing strength, simply building muscles is not the best solution. We need to use other powers that humans have. You must effectively increase your attack power while maintaining your body’s balance. “That ‘power’ is the Auror.”
Aless stood in front of the huge stone that had been placed in front of the students.
And then he picked up his sword.
“It is impossible to cut such a rock with a sword using only muscles. There is also the issue of strength, but before that the sword is broken. However, an attack in a prepared position through repeated training can carry an aura.”
Ales took a stance.
Hold the sword with both hands and hold it vertically in front of you, with the tip of the sword in front matching your line of sight. It’s a pose that looks like it was drawn in a picture.
Aless raised his sword upward and slashed downward toward the rock. A blue light shimmered at the tip of the blade.
With a clanging sound, the blade cut the rock cleanly.
Oh, the students’ admiration.
Ales had an unimpressed expression.
That’s why it was shown at every lecture.
“A warrior becomes able to put Auror on his sword through tens of thousands of training sessions. At first, it will be possible to use only one movement, but later you will be able to use the auror in various movements.”
“That teacher.”
Then someone raised their hand.
Looking at the back, I don’t know who it is.
Based on what I don’t know, are they extras?
“So, if I keep training, will I be able to always have an aura in my weapon?”
hmm.
Seeing you ask such a question, it seems like you’re an extra.
Aless smiled and nodded as if it was a very good question.
“Of course. And you can do more than that.”
“Anything more?”
“When you reach the peak of Auror, you can weaponize Auror with your bare hands.”
Oooh, the students’ eyes sparkle.
“Of course I can’t. “Not yet.”
There was a light laugh at Ales’ joke.
“Today’s lesson is to attack this rock with the weapon you have.”
Ales pointed to the other half of the rock he had cut.
“Among these students, there may already be students who have already been able to put auras into their weapons through practice and mastery before entering Constell. But cutting this rock won’t be easy. This is no ordinary stone. “It was specially made through the magic of professors.”
Even if it can contain an aura, the difference between the auras is also very different.
Although you can scratch a rock, it is very difficult to cut it. If it’s just a rock, it’s a specially made stone.
There was despair in the students’ eyes.
As if he knew that from the beginning, Ales raised his voice.
“If you can cut or destroy this rock using a weapon without using divine power, a party of 5 will be permitted to enter the lower level dungeon once. However, the five people in the party must include at least one third grader and one teacher.”
The students’ eyes lit up at those words.
Dungeons are valuable places where you can obtain materials and goods for various monsters. The principle of its creation has not yet been clearly revealed, but it has something in common: it is created in a place where mana accumulates.
Completing a dungeon doesn’t just mean finding an exit and exiting.
Defeating dungeon bosses, unlocking passwords, and activating hidden devices can also be strategies.
So, as the difficulty of the dungeon increases, not only do the monsters become more powerful, but the traps and devices also become more vicious.
Still, dungeons are a place of opportunity to earn money and accumulate experience and items.
Moreover, unexpected and valuable treasures may pop up. Like ‘Mistiltain’, which was in the news not long ago.
Of course it was fake, but no one believed it was 100% fake until I proved it. Because there was a slight chance that it was real.
You never know what items will appear in any dungeon.
“Then shall we begin?”
At Ales’s words, the students in front of us came out one by one. Everyone was full of enthusiasm as if they wanted a dungeon pass.
But honestly, I wasn’t interested in cutting that rock.
‘If you weave gram, do you think you can cut it?’
However, the dungeon pass is not important enough to me to show Gram.
Weaving is like my only weapon.
I’m not in a situation where I can afford to fight while showing everything I have.
Actually, what I’m interested in right now is not cutting rocks.
Finding a student cutting rocks.
As far as I know, there is only one person here.
“Hmph!”
It was Aster’s turn.
The blade he swung made a fairly large scratch on the rock. But I couldn’t cut it.
“profit.”
Aster’s clothes swelled as if the wind had caught them. Soon his eyes glowed white, and even his hair was dyed with that white light.
Oh, that one.
“stop. Aster. “Magic power is prohibited.”
“Ah ah. sorry.”
Aster bowed his head and returned to his seat.
Well, if I borrow Baldur’s power, I would like that rock.
However, the students’ enthusiasm was somewhat dampened there.
A rock that not even Aster can cut. That fact was quite shocking to the students.
And then there are a few turns.
Suddenly –
“Oh my?”
The rock was cut down.
The woman standing holding a sword thinner than her own arm looked embarrassed.
I was unable to do this or that as I looked at the neatly split rock.
It was natural that the eyes of others, including Ales, widened.
──I found it.
Pink hair and green eyes.
“Ouch! professor! see! “I succeeded!”
The hair dances and the lifted shoulders draw a flowing line.
Every single one of his gestures is lively and charming, and his facial expression is the ultimate in ingenuity that seems pure.
Everything from head to toe looks exquisite, as if it was created by God.
“…Saibel passed.”
Ales said with a shocked expression.
Cybel Forte.
A woman loved by fate
and one of the ‘main villains’ of Etius.
‘Sibel Forte….’ If
this world really is not the result of the movement of the world, but there is an element of ‘luck’ that resides in the individual.
The guy who seems to have been born with that luck alone is Cybel Forte.
Cybel is not a villain because her nature is inherently evil. Basically, he is just an optimist and expedient. Do what you want to do and don’t do it if you don’t want to do it. If you get tired of it halfway through, you quit.
But her destiny is always tailored to suit her will.
“Were you able to use Aurors before Cybel?”
“no! “It’s my first time!”
Saibel speaks lively. Those words are not lies.
Others may seem cowardly, but Cybel has never mastered Auror skills until now.
The reason why she was able to cut down that rock now is simple.
Because I wanted to do that.
Because I wanted the ‘dungeon pass’ that Professor Alles mentioned.
Not everything you wish for will necessarily come true.
But if it’s possible for her, she does it. If what she wants is not realistically impossible, it will happen.
While some people accumulate knowledge and skills by repeating training several times, Cybel skips that process altogether.
…That’s why she’s a villain.
When an enemy appears that neither one’s own strength nor one’s luck can fight against, it collapses immediately.
Because I have no experience overcoming such difficulties.
A person destined to ‘fall’ or ‘exit’.
Therefore, during the first playthrough, the player believes in Cybel because of her good abilities and ease of use, only to be hit hard in the back at the end.
If you recklessly push Saibel, she will rise to a very, very high position thanks to her sky-high talent and luck.
The military area covered by that position is largely destroying the country.
He then survived alone and disappeared.
However, even if you tried to make Saibel grow mentally by giving her difficulties from the beginning, her fate would not allow it.
There is no character that can beat Cybel’s ‘luck’.
Even Aster can’t compete.
So in the end, the player must focus on his own growth and surpass Cybel with his own strength, without helping or hindering her.
There are few villains that are this annoying.
“Teacher, I’m talking about a dungeon pass. “You have to be accompanied, right?”
“hmm. Five people must be filled. Among them, we have to include one third grader and one teacher, so if we want classmates, we can add two more besides you.”
Dungeon exploration accompanied by upperclassmen and professors can be said to be very safe.
Moreover, most people here have never experienced a dungeon before. Experience is essential for a proper experience.
I know from the beginning who Cybel wants to go with.
Sibel slowly opened her mouth and, as I expected, said,
“Aster.”
Call out Aster’s name.
I nodded quietly, satisfied.
Actually, I have nothing to gain from the dungeon.
Rather, what Aster Evans gains from this dungeon is important. Because Aster is as important as my growth in order to beat this game.
‘It’s not a difficult dungeon, and Aster and Cybel will easily beat it. The teacher will also go with us.’
This is a party with nothing to worry about.
In the meantime, I just need to focus on my training.
“Come with me, okay?”
Cybel’s tone seems to be seductive.
A refreshing smile and a slightly tilted head gesture.
Pink hair flutters.
“Yeah, good.”
Aster answered willingly.
Cybel was happy, even clapping her hands clearly.
Wow, I can see the eyes of the male students around me turning cold.
I can’t believe I can feel Cybel’s popularity so easily.
“But there’s only one spot left for your classmate. “Can I pick that one?”
But Aster said something strange.
As far as I know, Aster would never say something like this.
Later, Runia Freecell, who is almost like the game’s official heroine, becomes jealous of Cybel and joins her.
Aster will not make an offer to anyone first.
“huh? okay.”
Cybel’s answer drew attention to Aster.
Attention is focused on who Aster is talking about.
“Frondier.”
he called me
“…ok?”
I was listening and then looked up.
What is the reason that suddenly calls me here?
Weren’t you looking for someone to go to the dungeon with?
“Do you want to go to the dungeon?”
That was me.
I stayed calm despite Aster’s sudden criticism.
As a proud gamer in Korea and a fan of this game, I can keep my composure in any situation.
With that contemplative mind, after understanding the true meaning of Aster’s words, I answered.
“…ok?”
