“No.”
It was an immediate answer.
Ampere clearly knew what Frondier was going to say, and his answer was already prepared.
“It’s too early for you, Frontier.”
Ampere’s stern tone.
But Frontier laughed inwardly.
‘You say it’s too early now.’
Ampere, who has been said to be impossible.
What kind of change came to his subconscious?
“You still can’t handle your own body.”
Ampere’s words stung something in Frondier.
In fact, Frondier was not able to spar properly with Atjie, let alone win.
Of course, they may be better than Constel’s students, but I still feel the gap.
Ajie always has a calm face, so it doesn’t seem like he cares much, but what is it really like? You may be surprised by Frontier’s slow growth rate.
The fight Frontier has fought so far was possible because his skills, weapon information warfare, and surprise attacks that read psychology worked.
There are quite powerful means against an opponent from a distance, but when the opponent comes close, that is, in close combat, Frontier is still at the student level. Of course, since I’m a student.
“That’s why I’m planning to go.”
“To treat your body? “I will die before then.”
Ampere shook his head as he spoke.
His eyes sank with unusual concern.
“I’m sure you learned something at Tavern, too. “At least it’s not arrogance.”
“….”
“The reason I allowed you to go to the Tavern was because it was summer.”
At first, Ampere did not allow Frondier to go, but after careful consideration through Frondier’s serious words and conversation with Azier, he eventually allowed it. Rather than allowing it, it did not prevent it.
But this time is different.
“The barrier separates the border between humans and monsters. There, you can face the monsters outside, and although they are powerful, they are not even real monsters. The deeper you go into the boundaries of the outside world, the more different people pop up, even if you are outside. And in the winter, those guys come to break down the walls.”
Of course, Frontier knew about him too. The difference between summer and winter. Even for monsters outside, there is a deeper abyss. In Tavern, it was possible to tell the difference between the monsters inside and the monsters outside based on the boundary. I could clearly feel how powerful and ferocious the monsters became just by escaping just a little bit from the border right in front of the wall.
Even more so, the monsters inside and outside are literally more powerful the closer they are to the outside. Those guys invade in the winter.
‘Of course, my current strength will definitely help to some extent.’
‘Fireworks’ and Excalibur’s ‘bombing’ targeting the monsters’ vital points. In addition, ‘Jeong’ was created by combining it with Mjolnir. Even if it was a monster from outside, it wouldn’t be able to get hit by a weapon of divine status and legend and remain unharmed.
But that shouldn’t be the case. That’s just bragging.
No matter how great it is, unlike Tavern, Göranhes has never been breached under Ampere’s ‘iron wall’ in the first place.
Whether it’s a firework or a bombing, surprise lasts only for a moment. There is nothing to be gained from Frondier himself, and the same goes for Jeranhes. To Ampere, it will be seen as just an immature son acting out in a childish way. And that’s true.
That is arrogance. I am not going to Gheranhes to receive praise or anything from Ampere.
‘I have to somehow check the fragments of Helheim.’
A fragment of Helheim that prison warden Esther gave a big hint.
A little further north than Jeranhes, a fragment of Helheim trapped in a glacier rests. That means beyond the barrier.
If the fragment of Helheim is truly Black Heaven, you must obtain it.
But I can’t say this to Ampere.
“We will not fight on the walls.”
“What do you mean? “If you’re not going to fight, why go to the wall?”
Ampere looks at Frondier with suspicion.
Frondier said with a gentle face.
“I just want to see the Knights of Roach.”
“──Hoo.”
“I want to learn from them and learn the true value of ‘Iron Wall.’”
Frondier was just making up a bit, but it wasn’t a complete lie.
In order to obtain the fragments of Helheim, I need to figure out a way to secretly cross the barrier, but I have no intention of doing nothing until then.
Ampere’s achievement of not allowing a single monster to invade could not have been accomplished by him alone.
This achievement may have been possible because the knights he raised were trained to an incredible level.
If I can get something from them, I might be able to do what Ampere said, ‘taking care of my own body.’
“Among the knights, no one is free enough to teach you.”
“I will not learn. “I will steal it.”
It was a shameless remark, but it immediately caught Ampere’s eye.
“I will never allow fighting on the wall, especially fighting with monsters. “Will you still do it?”
“yes.”
After hearing Frondier’s answer, Ampere was lost in thought for a moment.
Clearly, Ampere also likes this proposal very much.
Frontier does not have arrogant thoughts of fighting on the walls like he did at Tayvon, but tries to know and learn his subject.
Even if the knights don’t teach you Frontier, you will naturally learn things as you spend time together.
As long as Frondier does not get very close to the barrier, there will be time to react even if a monster invades.
‘More than anything, I can’t just protect you forever.’
Ampere saw Frondier’s determination during last summer vacation.
Frontier has changed. I tried to take off the mask of laziness and become a member of Roach.
The efforts had clear results. The fact that he returned safely from Tavern without any major injuries is proof of this.
Ampere had only been thinking about kicking Frondier out of the family. That’s why I didn’t think about raising him to be a warrior.
‘That habit may still be there.’
After thinking, Ampere spoke to Frondier.
“The knights of Roach will not be as kind as Azier.”
“…yes.”
Atzie is kind.
There was a lot he wanted to say, but Frontier held it in for now.
“I’m leaving in a week. “Be thoroughly prepared until then.”
Permission finally granted.
Frondier grinned and bowed his head deeply.
Ampere looked at this strangely for a moment.
The only person who would laugh about going to the wall would be Frondier.
That is, someone who has already been there once.

The next day, Frondier went straight to Quinier’s mansion.
Quinier welcomed Frondier warmly. Frondier tilted his head at Quinie’s eyes, which seemed to be warmer than before, but went inside for now.
After listening to Frondier’s explanation, Queenie spoke softly.
“…So you want to improve the necklace.”
“yes.”
Frondier nodded.
“Now you won’t have anything to hide from your senior.”
Frondier placed the frame he had brought with him on the table and placed the black lotus necklace on it.
When I lightly broke it with force, the black cloth inside was contained in the frame.
“I can make weapons out of this. “You can make anything, whether it’s a sword or a spear.”
“Hmm. “Can you tell me everything like that?”
“As I said before, there is no need or reason to hide it from my senior anymore.”
Queenie has already seen Frondier use the Black Heaven many times.
She would have roughly guessed his abilities, so this doesn’t even say anything. Quinier merely restated what he already knew.
“That’s right. There’s no need to hide it. hmm.”
However, Queenie looked somewhere else, as if she was embarrassed.
Frondier tilted his head, but first explained the situation.
“We have information that will allow us to secure a large quantity of this liquid. “The authenticity is still unclear.”
“So you’re saying I have to put more into the necklace than before?”
“yes.”
“This necklace already has a space expansion spell attached to it. “I’m still going to add more, but do I need more than that?”
“Yes, probably not enough.”
Frondier nodded to Quinier’s question.
Of course, I know that the necklace has a space expansion feature. There is still room to fill all the black cloth.
However, there would be no way to contain all of Helheim’s fragments. Esther didn’t call it ‘lake’ for nothing.
“Is there perhaps a more advanced artifact similar to this necklace?”
Frondier asked in anticipation, but Queenie shook her head.
“Nothing like that. “Because this is custom-made.”
“…okay. custom order.”
When I first asked Quinier for this, it was my second meeting with Quinier. A situation where there was no intimacy or trust in Frontier.
Nevertheless, he complied with the request by custom-making it.
“The information you gave me back then was worth it.”
Quinier said after reading Frondier’s expression.
“Thanks to you, you saved a lot of people. It made me die less. And I made a connection called you. “In many ways, it was a profitable deal for me.”
“Am I connected?”
“It’s the best connection I’ve ever had.”
Queenie said with a bright smile.
Definitely being treated much more kindly than before.
‘Has my ransom estimate gone much higher?’
Frondier thought about it for a moment and then asked again.
“Then is it possible to improve the necklace?”
“Well, that’s hard too. It’s nothing else, it’s a gem. “If you touch an already completed artifact again, the risk of it breaking will only increase.”
“It’s difficult.”
Queenie crossed her arms and quietly looked down at the necklace. “Hmph,” she said, snorting lightly.
“I can’t help it. “I have no choice but to create a new one.”
“Make a new one?”
“okay. At the time, we just spent a lot of money and had it custom-made, but this time, we selected all the people to create the right product. “With experts in each field.”
“Expert….”
As Frondier trailed off, Quinier nodded.
She raised a finger.
“First, a magic circle technician.”
“It’s to engrave a magic circle inside the jewel.”
“huh. “In addition to expanding the space, we can engrave anything useful.”
And then he raised one more finger.
“Magical engineering expert.”
“Is it to connect the magic circle to function properly?”
“You’re smart. Additionally, it is necessary to prepare for errors when returning after destroying it.”
And another finger.
“Security magic expert.”
“…Security?”
“I didn’t realize it when I heard it before, but hearing it now, the liquid inside is quite important to you, right? The necklace itself needs a security spell so that no one can steal or break it. “So that only you can touch or destroy it.”
After hearing Queenie’s explanation, Frondier nodded.
Black Cloth is an important item that will continue to be with him in the future. Then, there will most likely be people who increasingly value the value of Black Heaven.
It is important to guard against being stolen by such people.
Frondier thought for a moment.
A magic circle technician, a magical engineering expert, and a security magic expert.
…Hmm.
“That senior.”
“huh?”
“For some reason, it reminds me of people who know everything.”
Queenie grinned at Frondier’s words, which had a somewhat subtle expression.
“yes?”
