Academy’s Weapon Replicator Episode 143 Chapter
43 Volunteer Activities (4)
Obsidian is home to the most dangerous criminals, so accidents happen frequently.
Of course, many people die.
Corpses found in Obsidian are moved by the body disposal unit. Before that, contact the bereaved family and ask about funeral arrangements. If there are no bereaved family members, cremation takes place.
Since Renzo had no bereaved family, Obsidian decided to have him cremated.
The cell where Renzo was imprisoned was cleaned out, and Renzo was moved to the morgue to prepare for cremation.
After that.
“…You want to meet me? “Renzo?”
“Yes. “Because I am the recipient of grace.”
There was a customer who came to Obsidian.
It was a woman wearing luxurious clothing and a wide-brimmed hat that covered her face.
Every time I walked, my high heels clicked, a sound that was difficult to hear in Obsidian.
“I thought I really wanted to repay you someday, but I heard he suddenly died.”
“Hmm…”
The staff at the reception desk had a troubled look on their faces.
Renzo was classified as the most dangerous criminal within Obsidian, so he was placed in solitary confinement.
He had to be locked in there until he died. Naturally, visits and phone calls were prohibited.
So if anyone wants to meet Renzo, they must either escape from prison or wait for his life sentence to be reduced and he is released. Both are infinitely close to impossible.
“I have been waiting for the day to meet that person with a glimmer of hope. “Can’t I at least see your face?”
The woman was crying as she spoke. Tears formed in the corner of the captivating eyes visible beneath the hat. He ran his hand over his eyes as if to cover it up.
“Excuse me, but what is your relationship with Renzo…?”
“…That person could not be said to have a good heart. “He seemed like a person who just did whatever he wanted.”
It will happen. I saw it very accurately.
“But I was saved by his personality of doing whatever he wanted. Did you know? “Slavery is still prevalent in the Duestar region.”
“…Then that Renzo.”
The employee seemed to understand and spoke less, and the woman nodded.
“He saved me. Of course, he was just passing by and blowing up buildings and people that didn’t suit him. I was just swept away by it. But it’s clear that I was saved thanks to you.”
indeed. The employee nodded. It is truly a grace worthy of Renzo.
“I will guide you to the morgue. Three prison guards will accompany you. Are you okay?”
“Sure. “I would be satisfied if I could at least see his face.”
The woman nodded and the employee called and reported the situation.
After a while, three guards approached the woman and one said:
“I will guide you. Come this way.”
The woman moved under the protection and surveillance of three prison guards.
Arriving at the morgue, the leading prison guard opened the door.
Currently, there was only one body in the morgue. The prison guard moved it from its bed on wheels to the center.
The body’s face was covered with a cloth.
The prison guard approached the face of the corpse.
“Then I will open the cloth.”
When the guard removed the cloth, Renzo was lying there, his face already cold.
“Ah, Master Renzo…”
The woman covered her mouth with both hands and muttered as if she were lamenting. She approached Renzo with unsteady steps.
“Ah, poor Renzo, it has come to this…”
The woman’s fingertips touched Renzo’s face. The guard’s eyes twitched, but he didn’t bother to stop him.
“Thank you, everyone.”
The woman said that and held out her hand.
For a moment, the guards didn’t know what that meant. Are you saying you want to hold hands? handshake?
The woman’s index, ring, and little fingers each pointed toward the three prison guards.
And then
boom –
the guards’ heads were pierced. In an instant.
The finger that had turned into a tentacle was recovered, and the woman shook the blood off her finger.
“Hmm, my fingers hurt a little if I don’t use the auror. Thanks to that, I wasn’t alerted.”
When dealing with humans, the thing people pay the most attention to is the use of aura or mana.
This is because humans who do not use energy have limits to their power.
Because of this, humans who do not use Auras tend to easily let down their guard in return.
Moreover, it is even more fatal if it is not really a human and is only pretending to be a human.
“Now then, let’s get started, Renzo.”
The woman’s face twitched. It felt like something inside was crawling up from below my neck, and my face changed. There wasn’t even a sound of bones.
The woman’s face, which had completely changed, was the same as in Constell’s auditorium, with no way to tell whether it was a man or a woman. It was a Kraken.
“As expected, this face is comfortable.”
Why bother going back to this look when you can freely change everything from your face to your entire body? Kraken questioned his own actions. Perhaps, even when humanoid, there is an original appearance?
“Well, regardless, I have to work.”
Kraken placed his hand on Renzo’s chest as he lay there.
As expected, the heartbeat has completely stopped. Renzo here is clearly dead.
To gain one life you must lose one life.
A technique that only Kraken can do. No, this is closer to a taboo than a technology.
Why~!!!
At that time, the alarm inside the morgue rang loudly. No, it’s probably an alarm that sounds throughout Obsidian. He had noticed something strange here.
“As expected, it’s fast. “But it’s already too late.”
A hole opened in the Kraken’s palm. Something twisting inside the Kraken’s body raced. It popped out through the open hole in his palm and squeezed into Renzo’s chest.
Exciting! Exciting!
Kraken’s entire body throbbed. The beat spread to the palm of his hand, and soon even Renzo was affected by it.
Blood flowed from the corner of the Kraken’s mouth. But Kraken was still smiling. There was a lot of pain, but I endured it.
Finally, when Kraken took his hand off Renzo’s chest.
Renzo’s eyes opened.

Day 3 of the school trip.
What I do is simple. Because I spend most of my time working as a lifeguard.
While working, I deliberately moved towards the area where there were more Constel students. Especially people who know me well. To Aster Elodie Aten Cybel, etc.
Because I had to show that I was properly being punished by Constel.
Because I think they suspect that I’m secretly doing something else.
Since that suspicion is actually the correct answer, I have no choice but to work harder in volunteer work.
“There’s a man there!”
While I was working, I heard someone shouting.
A woman ran towards me on the shore as if she was in a hurry.
“Are you a lifeguard?”
“Yes, what’s going on?”
“I can’t see my son…! “I was swimming a little while ago, but I took my eyes off it for a moment…”
I narrowed my eyes.
I turned my attention to the coast. The sandy beach and sea were already filled with a large number of people, including students from Constel and citizens from Cropol.
Finding the lost child there is literally like finding just one designated pine tree in a pine forest.
It may be just a lost child, but the fact that she became invisible while swimming makes me think of something sinister.
“…It might cause a bit of a commotion.”
There is no choice.
I muttered quietly.
“Menosorpo.”
A magic circle unfolded along with my voice. It was difficult for ordinary citizens to notice the change, but all Constel students felt Mana’s spirit and raised their heads.
An invisible but clear tension settled down on the coast. In particular, students who were in good spirits naturally turned their gaze to me.
Don’t do that too much. Because you will find out soon.
I carefully checked all the mana within Menosorpo’s magic circle. In particular, I looked towards the sea.
According to the woman, the most dangerous situation is when a child falls into the sea.
…and.
‘Damn it.’
there was. A child who has not yet sunk but is struggling with the waves.
I ran to the shore. It has already drifted away quite a bit. It was not clearly visible to the naked eye.
I was seeing it because I knew the location due to the influence of Menosorpho, but the people on the shore were barely aware of it as it was mixed with the waves.
‘I’m glad I learned it.’
I wrapped my body in auras and used my control skills to levitate my body in the air. By then, most eyes were on me.
I flew over the sea at maximum speed. The child floated farther than expected.
I think I already drank a lot of water, but I was still struggling with the desire to live, so it didn’t sink.
“hey!”
I weaved a rope and dropped it towards the struggling child.
“catch!”
I heard that if you jump into the water to save a drowning child, they will fall together. The child, terrified and desperate to survive, mercilessly pushes the rescuer down into the water.
Of course, since I’m flying in the air, that won’t happen, but in every way, it’s safer this way.
…but.
‘Damn, I can’t hear you.’
There were strong waves and water probably got into my ears. Besides, I’m crying. You must be thinking that you are about to die, so you cannot see your surroundings at all.
This gets a little too flashy, but I can’t help it.
Air Weaving
Workshop
Large Shield
I made a shield in the sea beneath the struggling child. As I slowly floated backwards, the shield supported the child and came up.
Kellogg Kellogg The child still coughed with a deathly look on his face. Fortunately, he spit out the water and was able to breathe.
I landed on the shield.
“Are you okay?”
I’ve hardly ever handled a child in my life. Frontier is probably similar.
Well, what should I do? First, I got closer and tried to look at his complexion.
Whirring –
Then the child was held in my arms. As soon as the child was held by me, he cried loudly. I cried louder than when I was drowning.
The sound was so sad that I smiled without knowing.
I looked the child in the eyes and said,
“Now let’s go see mom.”
The child sniffled and nodded.
I returned to the shore, sitting on the shield with the child in my arms.
The child suddenly forgot that he was crying and looked around with his eyes shining, as if he was amazed at the idea of floating.
Surprisingly, I didn’t have much fun. Is it because I am floating with a shield that I control?
There is a long moving walkway installed in the air, so it feels like you are sitting there.
‘But the idea of the shield becoming a moving platform is good.’
I can now fly in the sky, but if I use a shield, I think it will be possible to jump by stepping on it or make a sharp change of direction midway. Sudden braking and rapid acceleration will also be possible.
I went down to the shore, untied the menosorpho, and returned to the woman with the child.
The woman seemed relieved and sat down with her child, shedding tears.
I was finally released after receiving a thank you from the woman and the child nodding to me and promising to play with me later. After all, children are selfish.
“Whoa.”
And then I sighed and looked up at the sky.
The attention of people, especially Constel students, was so focused that I wanted to avoid attracting aggro myself.
But isn’t that just a coincidence?
Caw –
Just as I was looking up at the sky, a crow cawd and split the sky.
A crow flying over the coast.
It felt so out of place that I nodded to myself.
New news has arrived.
But it’s probably news I know.
