The Academy’s Weapon Replicator - Chapter 127
Academy’s Weapon Replicator Episode 127 Chapter
40 Personal Interview
Before Korra came as a transfer student.
I already heard the whole story from Jane.
“I will give Student Frontier the task of being Cora’s probationary student.”
Jane spoke to me in a casual manner.
I said.
“This is more of a punishment than a mission, right?”
“yes.”
Jane admitted cheerfully.
“I thought an appropriate punishment would be given sooner or later for destroying the exterior wall of the building, but it happened. From what I heard, Frontier already knows what kind of student Cora is?”
Is this about a white tiger? I think Queenie senior probably told me about it.
“So you’re saying I’m going to make sure Korra doesn’t go crazy?”
“That would be ideal, but it would be difficult. As a Frontier student, I would like you to evacuate nearby citizens when there are signs of a runaway. Of course, the Frontier student also quickly left the situation. “There is no need to contact us because Constel automatically sends an alarm when a heavy rain begins.”
Obviously, it takes quite a while for Korra’s rampage to completely transform into a white tiger. It would be the right decision to evacuate citizens in the meantime.
And judging from Jane’s words, it seems like other people didn’t know that I was there.
The mask pack that Queenie gave me was of great help. Additionally, even after defeating Korra, he took me with him, so I am just grateful.
…Well, I thought Queenie’s personality would ask me for something again, but she hasn’t said anything yet.
“…By the way, Frontier.”
“yes.”
Jane seemed to be thinking about something, or rather, debating whether or not to say what she had been thinking, and finally opened her mouth.
“There was a man who confronted Korra, who turned into a white tiger.”
Oh, you’re bringing this up.
I prepared my heart.
“That person has the face of Mr. Ampère when he was young. Is he related to the Frontier student?”
I practiced my lines and facial expressions in advance in case I was asked this question.
Without being too surprised, your eyes widen slightly and your eyebrows pull together. In a voice that seemed to be slightly awakened from drowsiness,
“…Father?”
good. Perfect.
I got the OK sign from Selena, so there shouldn’t be any problem.
“Well no. If it’s something you don’t know, it’s okay. “Please forget it.”
Jane shook her head. The acting seemed to work well.
“Anyway, please take good care of student Korra. “I heard you’ve been to Constell a few times, but becoming a student will require another adjustment.”
“All right.”
Building a relationship with Korra is something I also want. The tremendous potential of Baekho cannot be overlooked. Moreover, if it becomes an enemy, it will be a scary variable.
He said as if he remembered Jane again.
“As you know, Korra can be a bit distracting. I’m not used to etiquette yet. “It may seem a little arrogant, but I hope Frontier students will control it well.”
“Yeah, I know.”
They’ve had enough of Cora’s loud personality.
Thinking about having to go through that experience every day at Constel from now on makes me a little tired.
* * *
That’s what I thought, but the situation was completely opposite.
Of course, Cora was confident and loud when she entered the classroom, but as soon as she saw me, she quickly shrunk. I don’t think Korra knew I was here.
“Then there are no empty seats like this. I need to get a desk. “Let’s sit in the back.”
“Back… hot!”
Cora was surprised to hear that and looked at Jane. It seems like desperate eyes are telling me to save my life.
…Maybe it’s because my seat is at the back.
Jane didn’t understand why Cora was doing this. He was tilting his head despite Korra’s sudden change in timid attitude.
Even if we knew, Cora and I should stay as close as possible. Jane’s decision was obvious.
Jane said as the empty desk arrived.
“Then go sit in the back, Cora.”
“…yes.”
In this way, Cora’s seat was assigned near me.
This was actually something that could not be helped.
Before I possessed him, Frondier slept most of the time in class, so his seat was at the very back by the window. The intention is to put it in a corner.
However, when a transfer student arrives and there are no empty seats, a new desk is brought and they are made to sit in the back seat, so there is a very high probability that they will have no choice but to come near me.
“…Now, please take care of me.”
So Korra sat on the right side of me and Aten. Is it fortunate for Korra that there is Aten between me and Korra?
“Nice to meet you Korra.”
I smiled and raised my hand. Now that the case has been solved, there are no hard feelings towards Korra. Rather, I wish we could become friends. If Korra becomes an ally, she will be reliable in battle. I have a request from Jane, and in this case, I should say hello here first.
“…yes.”
Cora couldn’t even make eye contact with me and bobbed her head like a sparrow.
Aten turned his stern eyes at me.
“Mr. Frontier, have you done anything to this child?”
“nothing.”
“really? Just by looking at you, it looks like you were assaulted by Mr. Frontier.”
“Assault… I’ve had people hit me in the back of the head before.”
Aten’s face became serious at my words.
“It was too much. “For such a young child.”
He’s older than you.
And that’s not why he’s scared of me.
“are you okay? “My name is Aten.”
Aten spoke kindly to Korra.
It is truly Aten-like to say that you are a child and then speak respectfully.
“Yes. nice to meet you.”
Korra nodded, reacting much better than when she treated me.
Aten asked.
“What has Mr. Frontier done? “I can scold you.”
Well, she’s a princess. Is the point that even if it seems pretentious, it is absolutely not?
By the way, Aten is good at dealing with children.
“…I don’t really remember.”
Korra looked at me and said.
“I felt something very scary, but I don’t remember what it was…”
Korra said and lowered her head.
Why are you talking like that? You’re misunderstood.
Aten glared at me.
“…Mr. Frontier, it’s so bad that he doesn’t even remember…”
He misunderstood exactly as I expected.
“Is that possible? It’s not because of me that he doesn’t remember. “It’s his problem.”
I spoke calmly.
But after deleting all the difficult-to-speak content, I was talking like a really bad guy.
As expected, Aten narrowed his eyes and spoke.
“Perpetrators always say that.”
“hey! That’s what the perpetrator uses when they don’t remember! “It’s not that the victim doesn’t remember!”
“…!”
Aten opened his eyes wide as if he had finally realized.
…I guess I’m hanging out with these two now.
Of course, I always wanted to create a separate party that would not disturb Aster.
Is this the result? Oh, there was Selena too. Of all the people by my side, he is the closest to my enemy, but he is the most trustworthy.
Am I really okay?
Ding-dong-
At that time, a notification sound was heard through the speakers installed in the classroom.
“huh?”
All the students in the classroom looked at the speaker strangely.
Class is still in session and Jane is there. Jane wasn’t surprised either, but remained silent as if she was puzzled.
I thought I had accidentally pressed the sound button in the broadcasting room, but I soon heard a sound.
[Oh, can I really say that?]
What do you mean?
A very confused voice comes from the speaker.
[Ah hmm. We will give you guidance in the broadcasting room.]
Then, the guidance voice finally opened its mouth with the correct phrase.
[Student Frontier de Roach, please come to the principal’s office right away.]
…Me? Principal’s office?
Isn’t it the teacher’s office?
[I will say this again. Student Frontier de Roach—]
While the guidance voice was heard, the eyes of the students and Jane focused on me.
Not in the teacher’s office, but in the principal’s office and during class.
“…Please come back, Frontier.”
“…yes.”
Jane and I looked at each other briefly with similar, slightly wrinkled faces.
As I get up from my seat and leave the classroom, I can hear students whispering.
-Did Frontier finally have an accident?
It was a voice as if he had been waiting.
* * *
Principal’s office.
It was only after I stood in front of this that I realized the seriousness of the situation and sighed.
There is only one person in here.
The principal and president of Constel. ‘Zodiac’ Ospreet.
Ospreet is extremely uninvolved in Constell’s activities unless an incident occurs. In an unusual move, he called out individual students individually through a broadcast announcement.
But why is it me?
I took a deep breath and knocked on the door.
Knock-
“This is Frontier. “I came because you said you were looking for it.”
“Please come in.”
Ospreet spoke without pause.
When I opened the door, the first thing I noticed was the size of the principal’s office.
It was too large to be just a personal office, and most of its spacious space was filled with bookshelves.
Ospreet was standing in front of the bookshelf and looking at a book.
He smiled comfortably at me.
“Well, welcome. Be sure to close the door. “The hallways are quite cold for an old person.”
…Because it’s cold. That’s a very plausible excuse.
“Should I lock it?”
When I asked Ospreet, he smiled even more and said,
“Then it’s better.”
Clang –
As I locked the door, I felt the room being filled with magical power.
“Is this a soundproofing spell?”
“Well, something like that. but.”
Ospreet stretched out his hand to me and waved it in the air. Something like wind swept around my face and neck.
“Even my magic can’t stop Malia from sharing her senses. So I looked into it, and luckily the ability isn’t applied right now.”
…Did you just use that to check the magic and abilities applied to me?
“Is it that important? “It’s so bad that even my mother can’t hear it.”
“of course.”
Tak –
Ospreet closed the book with one hand.
The cover said ‘Legend of King Arthur’.
…also.
Ospreet smiled and looked at me.
“Isn’t that the case with you too? “I think we’re on the same page.”
“…okay.”
“Then sit down. “It’s going to be a long story.”
Ospreet offered me a chair and I sat down awkwardly.
Would I have been less nervous if I had been a regular student?
For me, who knows what kind of person Ospreyt from ‘Zodiac’ is, this position is especially heavy.
Ospreet sat down across from me and said:
“You are Ampere’s son, right? “Then it would be better to get straight to the point.”
…He’s not a real son, but it’s true that he hates trivial formalities.
I nodded and Ospreet asked.
“You were that young Ampere, right?”
Truly straightforward. That’s really the point.
Although I expected it from the moment Ospreet called me, I still don’t know his intentions.
It’s not easy to tell a lie or say it’s true.
Ospreet spoke to me who paused for a moment.
“Of course, it’s okay if you say yes or no. “It means it doesn’t matter if you lie.”
Ospreet smiled mischievously as he spoke.
“It’s just that my next words will also change depending on how you answer.”
Hehe, this old man.
I laughed along with Ospreet’s smile.
I think you want to have a really honest conversation with me.
Well then, what should I answer now?
