The Academy’s Weapon Replicator - Chapter 162
Academy’s Weapon Replicator Episode 162 Chapter
53 New Item (3)
Vinkis did a few short inspections. This was to check whether the ‘fall defense’ function was missing.
However, despite this, Frontier succeeded without any chance of being dropped.
Vinkis’ face sank in gloom.
Feeling sorry for no reason, Frontier thought back about his defeat just now.
“…that teacher.”
“why.”
Vinkis responded with a droopy face.
“It felt heavier than other times.”
“Oh really?”
Immediately, Binkis’s eyes filled with vitality.
Frontier wasn’t lying. There was definitely a feeling that some kind of preparation had been made for the fall. The moment I tried to open my arms, I felt some resistance.
However, the resistance was so weak that the feeling of weight was only a few grams. It was only a slight force that could be felt because I had tried it several times.
Of course, Frondier kept quiet about this.
“The direction doesn’t seem to be bad, so why not improve it?”
“That’s right! “I’m not wrong!”
Binkis quickly perked up. It was good to see that there was room for improvement.
The road to improvement may be very long and difficult.
“Thank you for helping me with the test. “This time it’s my turn.”
Binkis said with both arms on his waist. Frondier and Quinier nodded.
“But that’s what I thought when I heard what you said earlier.”
Binkiss tilted his head as if he didn’t understand.
“If it’s as explained, shouldn’t you break the necklace? “You’re putting in a significant amount of liquid.”
“…Yes, it is.”
As Vinkis said, the amount of black cloth to be used this time will probably be so enormous that it cannot be compared to the previous one.
I didn’t tell the three here, but Esther referred to it as a ‘lake.’ Even if that’s an exaggeration, it’s obvious what will happen if you break the necklace without thinking.
“So I’m thinking about that too. “I want both to be smooth so that I can take out the amount of liquid I want and, if necessary, take it all out at once.”
In normal circumstances, you may only need to take out a certain amount, but in a truly urgent situation, you may need all of the black cloth. Besides, if it’s urgent, you don’t have time to take it out slowly.
In other words, controlling the output of the liquid is of course important, but it is also difficult to abandon the method of breaking the necklace as we have done so far.
Binkis thought for a moment after hearing Frontier’s words and said.
“Then we’ll need one more artifact.”
“One more?”
“huh. Another artifact used to control the amount of the necklace used to take everything out. Did you say the necklace was ‘black lotus’? It was built to be broken in the first place, right? It would be impossible to add an adjustment function while maintaining that function. “It’s a gem in the first place.”
“okay. Another artifact….”
I thought all the functions would be included in the black lotus, but that doesn’t seem to be the case.
It feels like things are getting bigger and bigger. We have already gone beyond the scope of ‘improvement’.
“Then which artifact would be good?”
“well. “If you want to be able to use it at any time, you have to wear it, and it has to be magically linked to the necklace in enough space to output the liquid, so it would be best to place it as close as possible.”
Frondier was lost in thought for a moment at Vinkis’ words. I looked around the workshop for a moment. The purpose was to check what had been stored in the workshop so far.
However, there is no way to find someone who fits the conditions perfectly
.
found. The moment I saw it, memories of Frontier came back.
Elodie’s Adae.
An artifact to control Elodie’s uncontrollable power. Originally, Elodie used this adae to prevent mana from being used beyond a certain level. When using magic, the mana that overflows is stored in the subarea.
If only the artifact could be modified so that it could store black cloth rather than magical power.
“I have something in mind.”
“oh? What? “What kind of functional artifact is it?”
In response to Vinkis’ question, Frondier explained the bandeau that Elodie was wearing.
After hearing the explanation, Binkis looked at Edwin.
“…If it can handle metal pipa steel with that level of quality, it looks like a product from the Hitchcock company.”
“I think that’s right.”
Edwin also agreed. And Frontier thought so too.
It was probably her brother Levet who gave Adae to Elodie. If he cared so much for his sister, he would probably give her the best item made from loquat as a gift.
“How about this? “If only I could put black heaven instead of magic power in that sub-pod.”
“Hmm, the idea isn’t a bad one, but Hitchcock is strictly managed with various security measures. The same goes for the blueprints.”
Binkis tilted his head as if he was troubled.
The company Hitchcock is famous for its strict secrecy, so outsiders have no idea how technology and design are carried out within the company. All attempts were made to leak it, but all failed.
Quinier asked.
“It doesn’t have to be that product, right? “Now that we have the concept, wouldn’t it be okay to create an adae and add features?”
“Well, that’s right.”
Although he agreed to Queenie’s words, Binkis looked somewhat dissatisfied.
When Queenie tilted her head with a question mark, Edwin next to her said with a wry smile.
“Teacher, you want to see Hitchcock’s products. “I made it, but if it doesn’t work out better than that, I’ll get upset.”
“You’re so upset, but if you can make a better product, it’s right to try it, right? Did I tell you to take it from Elodie? “I won’t be able to see you for a moment.”
“You wouldn’t know it just by looking at the outside. “As long as they don’t dissect it.”
“Would you be angry if I told you to dissect it and then reassemble it?”
“Well, Elodie has a big heart, so she won’t be angry, but if reassembly fails…”
“What if it fails?”
“We may have to deal with Elodie’s rampage, which can’t even control its output.”
“omg.”
Binkis, Edwin, and Quinier talked to each other and discussed what method would be best.
Queenie, who wanted to just give up and create an original blueprint, and Vinkis, who could not let go of his attachment to Hitchcock’s product, were building up their opinions one by one.
…Meantime.
Frondier was rolling his eyes because there was something that really needed to be said but was really difficult to say.
“That Mr. Binkis.”
Feeling that the conversation between the three had died down a bit, Frondier opened his mouth.
“Yes why?”
“Perhaps.”
“Perhaps something?”
“If I could draw a blueprint for that sub-unit.”
Three pairs of wide eyes gathered around Frondier who said that.
Looking at this, Frondier smiled awkwardly.
“Could it be a technology leak?”
* * *
A moment passes.
“Voila! “I’m here, Frontier!”
Cybel appeared in the lab with a bright smile.
“I have to say hello to this guy’s teacher first.”
“Oh, I’m sorry. Hello, Mr. Binkis.”
Saibel quickly and politely greeted me.
After that, his father, Daoud Forte, appeared.
“Hmm, nothing has changed here.”
Dowd looked around the lab with his still grim expression on his face.
Vinkiss said with a sigh.
“If Mr. Dowd comes too, please say hello first.”
“Hey, Binkiss. A long time.”
Dowd quickly raises one hand. If he made one mistake, he would be no different from a gangster. Binkis and Daoud seemed to be friendly with each other.
Frontier was curious about the relationship between the two, but he bowed deeply to Daoud first.
“It’s been a while, old man.”
“Hmph, you brat. Are you planning to use me as an excuse to meet my daughter? “You don’t think I know that.”
“Dad! “I said no!!”
Daoud’s words were cut off by Cybel’s shout.
‘If you think that way, why did you bring your daughter?’
From the beginning, Frontier only called Daoud. Rather, it was Daoud who brought Saibel.
“So what can I do?”
Daoud asked Binkis.
“I’m going to show you that from now on.”
“What are you doing?”
Binkis didn’t bother to reply to Daoud’s reply and walked towards somewhere. When I made a unique gesture in front of a device, the floor in the center started to light up.
“Now Frontier. “Stand in front of where the light comes from.”
Frondier followed Vinkis’ words and stood in front of the shining floor.
“In front of it, in the glowing area, you can draw a line with mana. The line itself has no effect and is just visible. “It’s a device for drawing blueprints in 3D.”
Frondier nodded. As a test, I stretched out my hand and stirred the air using mana. The stream of mana that started from the fingertips was drawn in the air. It remained intact in the air without falling or falling.
“Erasing is the same as drawing. Instead, remove mana. “It might be a little confusing at first, but you’ll get used to it quickly.”
“yes.”
“Are you good at drawing pictures of the frontier?”
“…well.”
“are you okay. If you just draw a blueprint, you’ll be able to figure it out, even if it’s a bit clumsy. “Because I understand the structure of magic machines.”
Frontier nodded.
Saibel, who was quietly watching, asked.
“…So, are you drawing a three-dimensional blueprint here? “Frondier?”
“huh.”
“What about the drawings?”
“They say it’s in your head.”
Cybel’s expression immediately changed strangely at Queenie’s answer. But in fact, most of them had similar facial expressions.
‘Drawing a three-dimensional design is difficult even by looking at the drawing. ‘You can picture it just from what’s in your head?’
Even Vinkiss couldn’t trust it easily.
Frontier said it would be a good idea to bring a magic circle technician to see it together, so I did so, but no matter how I thought about it, it was too difficult.
If it weren’t for the trust in Frontier and the confidence shown in that calm expression, I would have stopped doing this a long time ago.
‘Okay then.’
Frondier stretched out his hand.
His weaving turns objects into images and puts them into the workshop.
As Frontier previously checked in the library, the image of the workshop is completely consistent with the actual structure. That is why the cloned weapon retains the characteristics of the original weapon.
Of course, Frontier can see the structure. A perfect perspective view of objects.
Frondier brought before his eyes a perspective view of the armament used by Elodie.
‘I can’t draw, though.’
This is not a picture.
This is a task that even a child can do, simply tracing the visible lines.
Frondier’s hand moved slowly.
“…Nonsense.”
A three-dimensional blueprint that is gradually being completed in the hands of Frontier. Vinkiss sighed as he looked at it.
It was amazing that he could draw a blueprint from scratch, but what was even more amazing was the way he drew it.
‘it’s crazy. I can understand it by looking at the drawing order. I really remember ‘perfectly’.’
Frontier draws without following any of the basics of blueprints. There is no distinction between the base center and the periphery, nor between the base plate and parts.
For example, drawing the parts instead of drawing the external design, or drawing the circuit instead of drawing the parts.
I literally just draw what I remember. If you draw it that way, the design itself will soon be ruined. Inconsistencies in the spacing and length size of each part will occur somewhere.
But there was nothing like that. Even though it was drawn in a chaotic manner, the blueprint was completed with surprising accuracy.
“Wow, that’s amazing. Right, Dad? “Dad, are you watching?”
“Yes, I am watching.”
While responding to his daughter’s urging, Daoud briefly recalled the past.
‘…It wasn’t a coincidence then, after all.’
Daoud has seen something similar to this. It was when Frontier drew a magic circle in the vacant lot in front of his house.
Even back then, Frontier was like this. The order and rules that must be followed to draw a magic circle were not followed at all. Nevertheless, the shape of the magic circle was perfect.
Nowadays, three-dimensional design is more difficult than that. However, Frondier’s expression showed no difficulty.
“…Frondier.”
Edwin, who had been watching quietly, called out to him.
“yes.”
“Is that by any chance a magical power?”
Frondier laughed at the question, which was somewhat playful.
The first question Edwin asked when he first met Frontier was mixed with a sense of inferiority. However, the connotation was completely different from then.
That’s why Frontier gave an answer other than ‘It’s a secret’.
“no.”
Because Edwin was free of his inferiority complex, Frondier was able to speak with a smile.
“I have no such thing as divine power.”
