Academy’s Weapon Replicator Episode 171 Chapter

55 Plan (2)

Selena bowed her head deeply at my words. She must have guessed it too.

“Yes, just as I did at Tavern, I will also be willing to sacrifice my life to protect his side.”

Selena spoke with determination in her voice.

Maybe it was because Selena’s voice changed, or maybe it was just because I heard it so much, but I was slowly getting used to Selena’s formal lines. Was that what you were aiming for from the beginning?

But I shook my head. This time, Selena had something else to do.

“no. “I have something special to ask of you.”

“…You mean separately?”

Selena raised her head and looked at me. I raised my hand and headed next to Selena.

A magic circle portal stored in the workshop. I drew it on the floor and opened a portal.

“…!”

Selena looked at it in surprise.

I said looking at her.

“If you go through this portal, you will see a cabin. Do you know? “It is the Roach family’s outbuilding.”

“yes yes. I know.”

“You go through this portal. Go and call my mother Malia.”

Selena seemed a little taken aback by my words, but she nodded. I didn’t ask why. Well, it’s a good mindset to have as an escort.

“And when you come, use horses.”

“…It’s not a car?”

“okay. But it shouldn’t be just anything.”

I took off my tie. Penelope’s cloth. I handed it to Selena.

“this is…?”

“Constel has facilities for horseback riding. Even if it’s vacation, that part will be managed. Go and wave this cloth to the horses. Then one of them will come.”

“…It’s Cassian.”

“Accurate.”

Cassian, a famous horse who helped me a lot at Tavern. Of course, you also remember Selena, who rode with you. Of course, she probably doesn’t know what the relationship between this cloth and Cassian is, but it’s Selena’s skill to overlook that part.

“But Mr. Frontier. Cassian is the wisest horse, but not the fastest. Cassian is slower than a car, and if you take two people with it, it will be even slower. It will take a few days to get here from Constell.”

“are you okay. “It’s worth the few days it takes.”

Of course, we cannot guarantee that monsters will not move south in those few days.

However, if Cassian and Malia are not here, there is a risk that a bigger situation will break out in an emergency.

In the first case, Ampere and the Knights will hold out.

And that time might be a valuable opportunity for me to go beyond the barrier and avoid the eyes of others.

* * *

The time when Frontier gave orders to Selena.

Ampere was receiving Silvain’s report.

“Compared to the previous year, the monsters’ southern invasion will begin within a week.”

“Do the members know?”

“yes. “I told everyone to stay alert.”

“Strengthen security and increase the scope of vigilance. “Increase the number of personnel sufficiently to prevent soldiers from becoming fatigued.”

“All right.”

Their conversation was no different from last year.

They always had similar conversations around this time and annihilated the monsters that would soon attack. I just repeated it. Repeating simple but difficult, cumbersome and thorough inspections. This gave Ampere and the knights the name ‘Iron Wall’.

However, this year there were slightly different variables.

“…When the monsters started moving south, your son…”

“Of course, I’m waiting. “There will be strict surveillance to ensure that you never leave the accommodation.”

Ampere’s immediate reply. Sylvaine, who already knew the answer, nodded.

However, even if you know, there is a reason why you ask questions.

“Your son has the qualities of a warrior. In sparring, the player is not overly frightened by the opponent’s attacks and continues to make moves to assess the situation, whether it is correct or not. “It looks like the matriarch’s blood is flowing.”

“I guess you told Frontier to do anything?”

“You said that, so I made you participate in the knights’ training. He followed along quickly. “I feel exhausted when it’s over.”

Sylvaine’s words are a bit playful. Seeing that, Ampere sighed deeply.

“Stop it. Frontier is a weak child. It’s been like that since I was young. “It didn’t reach Ajie.”

“…Well, anyone would compare it to Ajie.”

Is the reason why the matriarch is overly worried about Frondier because she compares him to Atjie? Sylvaine had that thought for a moment.

“Frondier is talented. Compared to Ajie, there is a sense of lack, but compared to ordinary children, it is an excellent axis. Is there a reason why you say he is a weak child? Is it because you have no divine power?”

“Aji doesn’t even have spiritual power. That’s not the problem with Frontier. “It’s just…”

There, in a rare moment, Ampere paused. Rather than being speechless, he seemed to be thinking deeply.

Slowly the heavy mouth opened.

“Silvane, do you believe in fate?”

“I’m not sure what it means.”

“What would you do if you found out in advance one day when and how you would die? Will you run away or accept?”

Silvain couldn’t understand why Ampere was suddenly asking this question. However, I answered sincerely.

“I will stand on the very limb where they say I will die, fight with all my might, and survive.”

“…Hehe, that’s right. Sylvan Cerdo. That’s why you are the knight commander.”

Sylvain was embarrassed. I believed that Ampere’s praise was beyond stinginess and that he would be counted on one finger throughout his life.

Since I just heard it once, you can be prepared to never hear Ampere’s praise again in your life.

“Then I will ask you another question. “What would you do if it wasn’t you, but someone dear to you?”

“…No way, matriarch.”

“Well, it’s just an example.”

As Sylvain said himself, even if that were to be his fate, he would try to overcome it. Even if I can’t overcome it, I won’t run away from that fate.

But if it’s not you but someone else. If you find out that someone more important than you has suffered that fate. The situation is completely different from what happened to me.

“I chose to run away. “That’s it.”

“…Matriarch.”

“But things don’t always go the way I want. “Is that really what fate is?”

Frontier and Azier. Unlike those two, Ampere has divine powers.

The god who bestowed divine power on Ampere was very close to fate.

Ampere received something similar to an oracle from God a long time ago. However, as in the previous example, it was not an oracle that specifically stated on what day and at what time Frontier would die.

However, the oracle clearly predicted misfortune for Frontier. The oracle gave a strict message that it was best for Frontier to remain out of the public eye.

“Frondier suffered from a great deal of laziness not long ago.”

“Yes, I heard. They say he was a famous lazy person even in Constel. “There was even a derogatory name for it.”

Sylvain even knew the derogatory term called ‘human sloth’. However, I didn’t say it out loud. I don’t know how Frontier was doing in Constel, but I thought it was a too harsh nickname.

“I thought it was the Frontier that had gradually changed. Even in my own eyes, Frontier’s sense of inferiority and helplessness was significant. I didn’t think it was unreasonable to stop thinking about growing and fall into laziness. I felt relieved inside. “I felt relieved that I wouldn’t be in any more dangerous situations.”

“But you’re saying it wasn’t like that?”

“After investigating later, I found out that Frontier was sleeping face down during all classes before a certain point. “It is said that he has never taken a single class.”

“…That is truly serious laziness.”

“Think about Sylvain. Do you really think that’s possible? As a human being, there are limits to how much you can sleep, and lying down on a desk is uncomfortable in and of itself. “It’s normal to be awake at some point, whether you’re in class or not.”

Sylvain also felt something uncomfortable at Ampere’s words.

If Frontier is living a normal life, of course he will sleep at night. Since Ampere had left Frondier alone, there would have been no reason to keep vigil.

Can a person who gets a good night’s sleep continue to sleep most of the day?

“…If you do that, the head of the family…”

“Frondier has some kind of intervention. “It’s become more clear recently.”

Sylvain’s eyes widened at those words.

“No way, God….”

“I still don’t know if it’s God or the devil. But now that I think about it, Frontier’s laziness was probably not normal. “It’s my bad luck that I didn’t notice it, but I can’t just wait and see once I found out.”

Even if it is not external intervention caused by Frontier’s laziness, it is clear that there is an indirect influence.

Maybe Frondier’s laziness was his mind putting the brakes on.

This is a signal that tells you that it is dangerous to go beyond this. It may be the result of Frondier’s body sensing the scent of death and acting intuitively.

In the end, when you put it all aside.

“Frondier is a weak child.”

“…That’s what I meant.”

No matter which situation you look at, Frontier’s future is not bright. Whether it’s fate, God, or the devil.

A child who would not be surprised if he died at any time. There is no other way to describe him than as a ‘weak child.’

“Are you not planning on telling your son?”

“Because people do not know their own destiny, they can enjoy life, grow, and move forward. Frontier also eventually overcame laziness and moved on. In any case, children are not subject to whatever their parents want. I found out about it when I saw Frontier. “Once you know your fate, you end up being swayed by it.”

Agier was an overly good son to Ampere. From an early age, Azier did everything Ampere wanted without showing any sign of disapproval.

But not Frontier. None of his talents and qualities went according to Ampere’s wishes.

At first, it was a source of great anxiety to Ampere, but now it is different.

“Whatever that laziness was, Frontier overcame it. Thanks to this, my plan to kick him out of the family also failed. “It doesn’t go as planned either.”

Ampere laughed.

“Frondier will live his own life. “If he meets an unfortunate fate, it’s my job to protect him from it.”

Sylvaine looked at Ampere for a moment.

This was my first time seeing Ampere like this. The way he smiles while thinking about something and the reason he talks so much.

…And I didn’t even know it was this crazy.

Silvain said.

“If that’s the case, then let me participate in this wall battle as well.”

“That’s a completely different story, Sylvain.”

Seeing Ampere hang up without any room for comment, Sylvain smiled slightly.

* * *

And a few days later.

Soldiers on guard duty at the barrier felt the vibration of their feet before they could see it.

“You’re coming.”

Unlike Tayvon, Jeranhes does not use prisoners. The only ones who can stop the monsters are the Roach Knights and their thoroughly trained soldiers.

“Did you tell the leader?”

“There were signs since early morning, so hurry. “We will be there soon.”

Huu The soldiers who had gathered in advance looked at their weapons and took a deep breath.

Gathered here are veterans who have passed through life and death many times. There is no difference in that fact whether you are a knight or a soldier.

But on the other hand, you can die at any time.

Although the barrier has not been breached, here the noble sacrifices, filled with blood and screams, are piled up as high as this barrier. With its weight and height, the soldiers were able to block the monsters.

“…hey.”

One of the soldiers who was watching the approach of the monsters through a telescope opened his mouth.

“Did you also tell the leader what the monsters look like?”

“No, just say you’re coming. “I couldn’t check the approaching guys at dawn. I noticed them through mana detection.”

“Then I have something to tell you right away.”

The man looked up from the telescope and squinted one of his eyes as if he had noticed something strange.

A rare, trembling voice came from the mouth of a man who had gone through all the hardships of childbirth.

“There are some pitch-black guys out there.”
