Academy’s Weapon Replicator Episode 108 Chapter

31 Rumors (6)

Elodie and I flew into the sky and landed on the roof of the building.

Looking down from above, I could see at a glance the students who were being manipulated and those who were not. It was obvious that the students who were sane were embarrassed.

…Still, there are many students who are manipulated. They checked where I was and started entering this building. In other words, this is not a place to stay for long.

“Frondier has finally turned all the students into enemies?”

“Finally.”

Looks like I planned it.

“I’m kidding.”

As Elodie said that, she looked down at the students under the building.

“…They look familiar.”

“I see you remember.”

Elodie nodded at my words.

Because Elodie was there during the cabin incident. I know Serph’s abilities.

Elodie asked.

“Is Serph Daniel alive?”

“…I don’t know.”

It is clearly Serph’s ability to control the students now. I just heard his voice on the air.

But it is not clear. Not only have I not seen Serph’s face yet, but I still don’t think he’s alive.

…Maybe I just don’t want to believe it. It is said that the divine bow ‘Chryselakatos’ never goes astray.

“I dealt with him last time, but he was quite a pain in the ass. “Stunning out won’t help.”

Elodie muttered. In reality, people controlled by Serph cannot be knocked out. To be precise, he has already fainted. The people involved probably felt like they were wandering around in a dream.

Suddenly a strange thought occurred to me, so I asked.

“Now that I think about it, you’re fine. “If you were my enemy, it would be really heartbreaking.”

Of course, there were several sane students besides Elodie. Did Elodie just get lucky and escape like that?

“….”

But Elodie suddenly fell silent. The mouth opened and closed repeatedly. For some reason, my ears seem to have turned red too.

Elodie then spat out with difficulty.

“…I am a party to that rumor.”

“huh?”

“The person spreading rumors about you is also handing out Serph’s business cards. Because the name ‘Indus’ has high reliability. “I probably gave one person a bunch of business cards.”

“…ah. So, the person who received the business card hands it out to his or her friends or acquaintances. To increase the persuasiveness of the rumors he heard. “Does the number of people who receive business cards increase exponentially that way?”

Elodie nodded.

“So the people involved in the rumor have no business receiving business cards. A student who wants to spread a rumor and a student who wants to know the truth are two different things.”

Interesting rumors alone are fun entertainment for students. So I want to spread it.

From their perspective, the later the truth of the rumor can be revealed, the better. Because once it’s revealed, the fun is over.

Therefore, business cards are not accepted by the parties as they can determine the truth of the rumor.

…but.

“Ah, then you know it too. What rumors are going around now? Hey, I was so embarrassed about that just a little while ago, but now that you and I are dating,” a

spark

lit up in front of me as I spoke. I was two steps away when an eerie heat touched my skin.

Elodie’s eyes sparkled.

“It’s a rumor so it will end today.”

“…yes.”

Why are you angry? You and I have the same feelings.

But Elodie muttered something with sunken eyes.

“Well, other than that, it’s okay for other stories to spread. Because it’s true.”

“…huh?”

It was then. I heard footsteps running from the entrance to the rooftop.

I gathered my eyebrows together.

“Are the kids being manipulated already here?”

“maybe.”

Elodie nodded.

“Frondier, do you know where Cerf is?”

“…huh.”

“Then find him. “I will do whatever I can for the students.”

I nodded.

The immediate destination is the broadcasting room. That Serf guy spread the broadcast from there.

It seems like Serph and Gregory want to kill me.

Looking at how long the operation was carried out. In that case, you wouldn’t have let the situation get to this point and run away. You’ll have to kill me.

…But how do I get to the broadcast room from this rooftop? I can’t go through the rooftop door because students will be coming.

“Don’t worry about this, just go. “You can get to the broadcasting room building by landing on the ground and running west.”

Elodie spoke to me while raising her mana.

…Well, landing means to fall from here, right?

I stood at the edge of the building and looked down. Was this a 5-story building?

It’s great that my evaluation within Elodie has risen, but I want you to know that my abilities are subject to conditions. I shouldn’t know.

That’s when I thought,

‘Okay, this time it’s Mjolnir.’

Someone was performing magic on the ground far out of sight.

A pure white silhouette that you can’t miss even from this distance.

It was Aten.

Ice Magic Type 1

Range Enhancement Continuous

Emergency Escape

A long slide was created connecting the rooftop to the point where Aten is located. Of course it was ice.

“What are you waiting for Aten? I asked why he was quiet. “I don’t know how much you know.”

Elodie scolded him.

…Well, let’s just move on.

I stood on the slide. It was cold because it was ice, but it was worth enduring.

“Then I’ll go, Elodie! be careful!”

“Go! And watch out for the teachers! “The fact that teachers have not responded so far means there is a high probability that someone is being manipulated there too!”

That was correct. I nodded and went down the slide. I pushed with my arms and surrendered myself to the slope.

“Waaa~”

“Can’t we just go quietly?!”

* * *

The large number of students pouring into the entrance of the building and quickly climbing up was a sight in itself.

The students who were still sane were scared and backed away. Just by looking at them, their facial expressions were not normal.

Robald was among the procession, which made other students avoid him even more.

“Uh, Robald, where are you going?”

However, there were people who did not care about such things at all.

Although Aster was a little surprised by the huge number of students in the procession, he tried to ask Robald, who was among them, what was going on.

Of course, Robald, who was unconscious, just walked in silence.

Aster ignored his words and quietly watched Robald pass by.

Then I heard Robald’s voice muttering softly.

“Frondier… I’ll kill you…”

“Oh wait. “Wait, wait, wait.”

Aster immediately followed Robald’s side. Even so, the words and voice were very disturbing.

“You’re going to kill Frontier?”

“…Kill….”

“──Hoo.”

You’re crazy.

Aster, who made a quick decision, blocked Robald’s path with the sword in its scabbard.

“I can’t go any further than that, Robald.”

“….”

Robald’s unfocused eyes turned to Aster. Looking into those eyes, I feel confident. Robald was hit by something now. Probably all of these students right now.

“Even if you let all the other kids go, Frontier will do something, but not you. Even if you’re not crazy, you’re still dangerous. “Even if I’m sane, it’s a pain in the ass.”

“…Interruption….”

Robald’s expression distorted. The veins in my temples rose and the muscles starting from my neck became clearer. Soon his size grew slightly.

Just by giving strength to the whole body, the expansion of the entire body was visible.

“…I never thought we would fight like this.”

Robald was always the one who made a fuss about fighting first, but when it came time to actually fight, I was the one who started the fight. Aster felt something ironic.

Aster’s scabbard took on a blue tinge. The vivid colors could be seen even by people who were not particularly gifted.

It was an ‘Auror’ that could manifest freely that I acquired during this vacation.

I decided not to use my divine power. Aster’s goal is to subdue Robald, not to hurt him.

Would it be possible to subdue a guy of Robald’s size without serious injury? No matter how crazy it may be.

But Aster smiled fearlessly.

“I didn’t have a chance to check if I was stronger.”

Robald took a fighting stance. Even though I lost consciousness, it was a movement that my body remembered. Aster also pulled his sword back and lowered his body. The scabbard was not removed.

“It’s a good opportunity.”

Immediately afterwards, the two rushed towards each other as if cutting off the air.

* * *

I ran towards the broadcast room with Aten.

“Menosorpo.”

I activated the magic circle and pushed back the attacking students with my shield.

There were still a lot of students targeting me, but with Aten’s help, I was able to deal with it somehow.

Aten, who specializes in ice magic, was a great help in blocking the students without hurting them.

“I’m glad you didn’t get a business card either!”

“Because I am also one of the protagonists of the rumor.”

Aten answered while running with me. That still calm face was actually reassuring in this situation.

“By the way, Mr. Frontier.”

“huh?”

“Mr. Frontier, do you wish to make me your slave?”

I looked at Aten at the absurd sound. I thought it was a joke, but Aten still had that same face.

At times like this, this simple face is so scary.

“…Oh, you’re kidding, right?”

“It can’t be. The rumors about me were mostly like that. “It was like my weakness was discovered or I was threatened.”

Yes, I know.

I just had a fight with Robald about that.

“So I thought. I wonder if Mr. Frontier is secretly wishing for something like that. There is a saying like that, right? “No, there is no smoke coming out of the chimney.”

“First of all, isn’t it a chimney? “I don’t want that.”

Taking the imperial princess as a slave? Even in delusion, this is a story worth considering for probability.

“But that’s enough reason.”

“what do you mean.”

“The number of students who are questioning me following Mr. Frontier has increased. But if I am being threatened, the students’ questions will be resolved.”

“They’re really going to make you their slave in order to solve the students’ questions?”

Is this it? If there is someone who hates me for no reason, please give them a reason.

Should we add the setting that Aten is threatening to give a good reason for following me?

“That’s nonsense. “It’s wrong to treat you like that.”

“…I don’t really have any complaints”

“It’s loud!”

weird. Aten probably isn’t that bad. The focus keeps getting out of focus in strange places.

And isn’t the solution to that situation much simpler?

“I just need you to not follow me in the first place!”

“It’s dismissed.”

This bastard.

“Then your opinion is also rejected! What a slave! “This isn’t even a joke!”

“It wasn’t a joke. “There’s about 10% sincerity in it.”

“That’s what you call a joke!”

“…!”

Aten looked at me and opened his eyes wide.

“Was it something like that?”

…ah.

I want to see Cerf soon. I want to kill that guy.

It was definitely not a feeling triggered just now, it was like that from the beginning.

…I will tear your limbs apart and kill you.
