The Academy’s Weapon Replicator - Chapter 229
Chapter 74 Demon (2)
The monster continued to watch Ajie’s fight.
His outstanding intelligence and adaptability did everything in their power to somehow absorb Ajie’s fall.
In a way, it was closer to a prosecutor who had entered into a state of immersion.
His entire body moves to reach one technique, Nakjang, skipping all the basics and fundamentals that had to be learned before him.
However.
‘It’s not enough.’
Understanding has not yet been reached.
To fully imitate that technique, you need practice.
‘We have to get out of here.’
The monster looked around the prison.
I tried to escape earlier, but this prison was designed so that entities with mana could not escape.
‘The guy who first arrested me was like that too.’
To be honest, he has no clear memories of when he was born.
At that time, there was only endless murderous intent.
Immediately after the ‘accident’, there was someone in front of him that he had to kill, so he tried to kill him, but was blocked.
He looked down at his hands.
His hands can turn into metal-like claws whenever he wants.
A cloaking ability that allows you to hide yourself at any time and escape the sight of others.
Where on earth did you get those things?
Did I have it from the beginning? Isn’t this just an unconscious imitation?
‘I am a disaster.’
I don’t know what disaster means.
I don’t know if it’s a word that answers something or not.
However, right now, I have no basis for knowing who I am.
He can change into any form and steal any ability.
That’s why I can’t know my true self.
‘But that technology is different.’
If only I could imitate that technique.
At least he will be free from something common to everyone else.
Even if you can’t become the only being, you can become something second.
‘I have to get out.’
The monster grabbed hold of the prison bars.
It’s a joke!!
The prison’s bars react to the monster’s mana and generate terrifying electricity.
This is not simple lightning, but a vicious attack that directly attacks the mana it touches.
The bars attack anything that passes between them, not just what they touch. This is why even monsters with small or flexible bodies cannot escape from this place.
‘it hurts.’
The monster felt pain. He knew he felt pain when the black-haired man stabbed him in the back.
The monster did not know what to do after feeling the pain, and ended up screaming as it struggled to escape the pain.
That scream wasn’t an imitation of anyone. The first and last act he realized on his own. It is an act of his own choosing.
so that. He finds himself uniquely in suffering.
Sussseu –
The monster’s body gradually becomes lighter. However, because he is merely concealing himself, the lightning from the bars continues to crush his mana. The body screams accordingly.
‘What am I?’
A cover-up that continues to be maintained nonetheless. A self that has become completely transparent.
You can change into anything, learn anything, and follow anything.
so that.
‘I am nothing.’
Pajik-
And.
The lightning in the bars stopped.
Separation from a complete world beyond concealment.
And he walked through the bars. The volume of the body blocked by the bars was separated to that extent, but then came back together as it crossed the bars.
‘…!’
Ajie confirmed that the monster had become transparent. Of course, it was the same with Mizonas.
“Hmph, I was planning on using the cover up to get out, but I guess I gave up! “Stupid!”
Mizonas said with displeasure. At that sight, Ajie’s eyes twitched.
‘Is that really so?’
Atjie cannot tell whether the konjac monster succeeded in getting out or not.
The monster can make its body completely invisible, and as of now, Frondier is the only one who can detect its concealment.
The electricity from the bars pierced the monster that had become transparent, and after some time, the electricity stopped. When you think about it in common sense, it is true that the monster gave up and returned to the prison as Mizonas said.
But.
“I don’t understand why you’re upset.”
Atjie spoke to Mizonas.
Isn’t the disaster a monster sent from the devil’s side? If the monster escapes from prison on its own, it would be more appropriate to welcome it. Didn’t they break into this prison in the first place to get that monster out?
“Hmph, what are you misunderstanding!”
Shhh!
Kang! Wow!
Ajie’s sword and Mizonas’ claws clashed continuously. If you look at the simple difference in skill, Ajie had the upper hand, but all 10 of Mizonas’ claws had similar strength to Ajie’s sword. Simply put, there are more weapons.
In addition, Mizonas’ attack is capable of shooting out auras even in the middle of battle. If you are even a little bit off guard, your head will be pierced by a blow fired from its claws.
“We were sent here to destroy that thing!”
“To get rid of it?”
“Yes! “Monsters from this world are originally—”
Mizonas’ mouth, which had been talking intently, stopped for a moment. In an instant, his face became cold and his eyes became filled with fear.
Whoa!
Atjie almost reflexively kicked Mizonas’s abdomen, as the gap between him and Mizonas was open.
Mizonas staggered back in shock.
“…?”
However, Mizonas stood blankly for a moment even after being hit, as if the fear that was worse than the pain still lingered.
“…no.”
Mizonas suddenly changed his expression and said, wondering what he had seen and heard.
“It’s not something I should say to someone like you.”
“…Has there been a ban on it?”
“shut up!”
Mizonas’s claws swung again. The aura of the fingernails that crossed the intersection spread out like a grid pattern and rushed towards Ajie.
If it were a normal human being, he would have let go of his life at that scene and waited for his fate to be cut up alive.
“Isn’t it boring?”
In the case of Atjie, this is one of the easiest solutions.
Thud-thud-
thud-thud-thud-thud,
his blade pierced through the intersection of the aurors and came down once.
It tore as if the thread of Mizonas had been cut and split like waves on both sides of Ajie.
All of them left horrible marks on the floor and walls, but the center Ajie was just there, intact.
“…you guy.”
After confirming that, Mizonas’ face hardened.
“You’re taking your time on purpose.”
“….”
“There’s no way someone as skilled as you would miss the gap I gave you a moment ago. But it only ended with one kick. Moreover, the current attack is the same. “At first, I thought they focused on defense to avoid spreading damage to this dungeon.”
As Mizonas spoke, his Auras became more and more excited.
At first, I was quite calm and reasoned coolly, but as I talked, I was getting angry.
“How dare you waste your time and save your strength against me!!”
“…This is right.”
Atjie shook his head, feeling the force of that desperate anger.
“That is correct. So there is no need to be angry. Or is it just that all the best disciples of ‘anger’ are angry?”
“Anger is our strength! It is the source of Ma’s footsteps!”
“…I didn’t think you’d admit it.”
Atjie was struck by Mizonas’s momentum for a moment.
Anyone with any level of skill would have realized that something strange had occurred in this dungeon.
That Mizonas is showing off his ridiculous mana without hesitation.
This is not a life that is carried out without any thought.
Mizonas knew that he would be discovered when he displayed his aura in front of Ajie. Even though I knew it, I increased my anger and gained strength.
So to speak, Mizonas chose to be ‘angry’.
‘It is difficult to understand the devil’s ideas.’
Ajie, who always operates based on cool-headedness, never thought that there was such a thing as a way of thinking that directly chose anger.
However, it seems that that anger is actually becoming the power of the devil, so we cannot just look at it lightly.
‘The problem isn’t him.’
Mizonas is definitely a strong opponent. If you try to kill him, Aji will suffer a lot of damage.
However, if we focus on defense like we do now, we won’t be able to break through Ajie’s wall.
Anger is easier to defend because it ultimately simplifies your way of thinking and actions.
‘Is that monster still in that prison?’
When Adjie thought about it with ‘common sense’, he was worried about the monster that was still inside.
Now I can’t even feel the presence of that monster. It may be natural since I used the cloaking ability.
So why do they still maintain a cover-up even after knowing that getting out of prison is impossible?
Atjie had something to say that he heard from his younger brother in advance.
-He might get out of prison on his own.
As soon as he heard that, Ajie said it was impossible. Nevertheless, Frontier’s opinion did not waver.
-This guy is a monster from another world. The restraints created by the empire do not assume another world.
When Ajie heard those words, he was still in doubt. Of course, Frontier himself had no confirmation of this, so Ajie’s stance was correct.
Frontier knew that too. They have no information about the newly appeared konjac monster.
Therefore, from Frontier’s perspective, no matter which way the situation turned, it had to be prepared to deal with both sides.
-If he escapes from prison, brother, please do not chase after him. If you are doing any ‘work’, just keep doing it.
Frontier said:
Ignore that monster.
-I’ll take care of him.

[Report.]
The second crow flew.
[The monster inside the prison is not visible.]
“…!”
At those words, everyone became nervous for a moment. But soon the tension was relieved.
Lili said.
“It was just a cover-up. “You said no one can find it?”
Yes. There is no monster that can escape from the monster prison. Everyone relaxed because they knew that.
“Be more specific.”
Frondier said.
[When the monster’s hand touched the bars, an electric shock occurred. Afterwards, the monster gradually became transparent and the lightning continued. And after a while, the lightning stopped.]
“Okay, I guess I gave up.”
Daisy listened and nodded as if she understood the situation.
“I knew I couldn’t get out so I went back inside.”
Everyone was thinking the same thing, but Frondier asked again.
“But you still can’t see me inside the prison?”
[yes. As I watched, I couldn’t see him inside the prison for at least 5 minutes.]
That was a little strange.
If you have given up on escaping, there is no reason to continue hiding.
But he is still nowhere to be seen inside the prison.
“──Your Majesty.”
After a long period of thought, Frontier’s mouth opened.
“I’m going out for a while.”
“what?”
“Hey you!”
The Zodiacs shouted in surprise at that one word.
“It is possible that he escaped.”
“What are you talking about! “No monster can escape from that prison!”
“This guy is a monster beyond common sense. No one has ever seen anything like it. “Something unexpected can happen.”
Frondier did not necessarily say that it was a monster from another world. It would take a lot more time to explain that. Moreover, I wonder whether I can believe that I have explained everything.
“Even so! “Why are you leaving here?”
“okay! He’s going to come here anyway! “If something unexpected happens, it can happen here too!”
The main premise for Frontiere to maintain its position.
Because that monster or someone like him could target the emperor at any time.
But Frontier said:
“What he’s after is not the emperor.”
“…what?”
“To be more precise, he is not aiming for anything. And that’s what our enemies want right now, that the monster doesn’t aim for anything.”
Frondier continued speaking incomprehensibly.
But as if that was all he said, Frondier looked at Bartello.
“Your Majesty, we must stop that bastard. Please allow me to leave.”
Hiss!
At that time, there were three people moving quickly.
Ludovic Daisy Monty.
They surrounded Frontier and aimed their weapons at him.
“Don’t talk nonsense, Frontier.”
Daisy said.
“Our top priority is to protect Your Majesty, Frontier.”
Ludovic said.
Then Frondier looked at Ludovic.
“If the response is delayed, more people will die.”
“…small sacrifices are unavoidable. Other zodiacs will come to see the situation.”
“It’s a small sacrifice.”
Frondier interrupted Ludovic.
Ludovic’s eyes fluttered for a moment at the dark emotion in that voice.
“I’m sorry, but I can’t make that decision.”
“what…?”
“Only the emperor makes such decisions.”
Frontier said so.
It is the emperor who can make minor sacrifices.
In front of Bartello, in front of the Zodiacs.
“How dare this guy talk about safety like that!”
“Of course, I am not the emperor.”
Frondier calmly accepted Ludovic’s anger and continued speaking.
“I am nothing.”
