The Academy’s Weapon Replicator - Chapter 240
Chapter 76 Disappearance (3)
Jane jumped out the window before I could fire my weapon.
It was a great decision. Since I can’t destroy this building, I can’t break through the wall and target her.
“Menosorpo.”
I manifested a magic circle and followed it.
Jane, who was running away by ‘flight’, looked back at me and opened her eyes round.
“Frondier! “When did you learn flying magic?”
“….”
Come to think of it, Jane doesn’t know that I can fly. I think I thought I could just run out the window if I had to.
“teacher! If you are not the president’s enemy, please explain the situation! “I will help too!”
“So! “It’s not up to you to help or not!”
“Then you can tell me what’s going on! “I have no intention of fighting with you, teacher!”
“You can say that while dragging dozens of weapons!”
hmm. I have nothing to say about that. For the first time in a long time, I was speechless.
“How did you notice in the first place! Frontier!”
“…I just found out by chance.”
Perhaps the feeling of discomfort originated from the ‘sixth sense’. It was a feeling of discomfort that disappeared in an instant.
Still, thanks to this, I noticed a contradiction at some point when I was talking with my classmates.
If I hadn’t paid attention to that feeling when I entered the school gate, I would have continued to forget Ospreet’s existence.
“…It just so happens that the highest level magic is so simple….”
“It was magic after all!”
“Ahh! You did a Judo newspaper! Frontier!”
…did you?
Would it be better to say so?
‘If things continue like this, we’ll just play tag without end.’
Jane runs away with the same mindset as me, who is chasing me without any real intention of attacking.
Since it’s a chasing painting, it looks like I’m overpowering Jane, but in reality, that’s not the case.
If Jane tries to respond sincerely, the country will not be okay.
My flight is not magic like Jane’s, I’m just controlling my body as if I were controlling a woven object within the menosorpho realm.
Therefore, there is a slight difference depending on the control, but it is not faster than Jane.
‘Jane has no intention of running away completely. If that happens, I’ll go back to the president’s office and continue what I was doing.’
I don’t know what was inside the president’s office, but it was clear that Jane was trying to prevent me from going inside. Or maybe it’s okay to go into the president’s office, but you’re not allowed to try anything inside it.
So Jane can’t be completely away from me either. Just like me, you are in a difficult situation. Especially since we have no intention of hurting each other.
‘but.’
As much as I know about Jane and Jane doesn’t know much about me.
At this moment, I have more information than Jane.
‘I can spread it out at this distance.’
I narrowed down the scope of Menosophy to my area. My flight stopped for a moment because I couldn’t get out of here.
“Have you all given up? Frontier?”
Jane looked back at me and made a slight misunderstanding.

I reached out my hand and expanded the menosorpo again in the same way I caught May. At the same time, the attack and defense gradually unfolds depending on the scope.
“…!”
Jane’s eyes widened as she entered the range where the workshop was being created.
The workshop engulfs Jane in an instant─

of the spell Jane’s mouth seemed to move, then she stretched out her finger and pointed to the right, and at that moment moved to the right, completely out of range of attack and defense.
It did not fly quickly or leap, but literally jumped through space and arrived.
“…!”
I looked at the scene with my mouth open. I couldn’t help but be surprised.
Coo!
Even as the ball made in the air fell and made a heavy sound on the floor, I looked at Jane blankly.
Jane used space magic. And that too using one finger.
In this world, the difficulty of magic is determined by how far it is from human understanding.
Things that can be easily seen and felt in life, such as fire, water, and wind, are that much easier to create with magic.
In comparison, even basic lightning is a bit more difficult because it is not something that can be easily seen.
By the same principle, instantaneous movement, such as moving from somewhere to somewhere at once, is incredibly difficult no matter how short the distance is.
That’s because it’s beyond the scope of ordinary people’s understanding. The conditions for the transfer method of Mangot, where Selena is located, and the Indus Portal are not difficult for no reason.
In order to transfer to Mangot, a passage has been opened in advance to reach it, and it is only a one-way street.
The Indus portal can only go to pre-set areas, and it uses a very precisely designed magic circle.
It would be almost impossible to draw it simply because it would be tattooed on the palm of one’s hand.
In other words, the reason they were able to move through space, whether in Mangot or Indus, was because they changed the method of space movement to make it easier to understand.
The portal is a forced attachment of coordinates on one side and the other, and Mangot’s transfer is to move to a hotline connected to an individual.
If magic, like the spatial movement that Jane showed now, was used to move wherever one wants, portals, gates, and Mangot’s unique transfer method would all have been useless nonsense.
“What did you just do? Frontier. “You were surprised!”
As I looked at Jane’s still confused look, I clearly saw that it was not an act at all.
No matter how good of a wizard Jane is, there is no way that I know her to be capable of magic like this. And that too with just one finger and a single line of chanting.
“…Teacher, are you really Teacher Jane?”
I asked, raising my guard. I looked at Jane with hostility that bordered on murder.
Acting that goes beyond my sixth sense. It was said as a joke, but I thought it might really be true.
Jane’s inaction shown now is close to that of the Zodiac. No, some of them will be easily surpassed.
“You really want to see me as your enemy.”
Jane’s expression hardened as if she were sad. Up until now, I thought we had treated each other in a semi-joking sense.
But if I’m just being played by something completely different in Jane’s guise, I may already be in the hands of the enemy.
Jane shook her head as she slowly raised her mana due to the tension.
“all right. stop it. I’ll tell you everything. It’s really hard to convey sincerity. “If this continues, one of us will die.”
Saying that, Jane calmed down her mana. It slowly descended to the ground, as if trying to dispel its flight magic.
…Anyway, there must be a reason for being so defenseless. I also went down to the ground. We looked at each other completely drained of mana.
Jane sighed softly and looked at me.
“Osprit.”
“…!”
“You wanted to hear that name, right?”
“…Are you the teacher who made him disappear?”
“no. Is that possible? “I don’t even know who he is.”
Don’t know who it is?
So does that mean Jane is also affected by Ospreet’s disappearance?
I thought Jane was someone who knew about this anomaly like me, but does that mean I’m the only one who still noticed this anomaly?
“…Then how do you know that name? “The name of someone I don’t know.”
“…Because.”
Jane lowered her eyes as if she really didn’t like it.
“There was a letter left in my room. “A letter written by a man named Ospreet.”
“…letter?”
Ospreet left a letter in Jane’s room. If so, Ospreet was predicting that this would happen.
“It seems that Teacher Jane surprisingly received a lot of trust from the president.”
“…Oh really. “It’s so difficult to have a conversation with someone you don’t understand.”
Jane muttered in a voice that made no sense to my words.
“Let me explain again, Frontier. I don’t know who Ospreet is. So even if I had that person’s trust, I don’t even know if that’s true. That’s not what he meant when he sent the letter to my room. “Of course he put the letter where it was supposed to be, and I happened to be the owner of that room.”
“…?”
I tilted my head, not knowing what Jane was talking about.
Rather than feeling like I didn’t know what they were talking about, I felt like I was just repeating the obvious.
‘Osprit left the letter where it should have been, and the owner of that room is Jane?’
Where Ospreet should leave the letter.
If he didn’t specifically send the letter to Jane, where did he leave the letter? A place where anyone can check if something goes wrong with him.
…ah.
“…okay. “That’s how it happened.”
Jane smiled bitterly at my words.
“that’s right.”
And Jane recited the exact conclusion I had reached.
“Osprit left a letter in the rector’s office. “I checked that.”
in other words.
“I am the current President Constell.”
Then he tilted his head as if he didn’t quite understand it.
“I guess it’s set up that way.”
* * *
[I sincerely congratulate you on becoming the president of Constel. I don’t know who you are yet, but I’ll greet you in advance.]
That’s how the first sentence of the letter in the president’s office began.
[The president of Constel without me will be replaced by someone else. You can’t create someone who doesn’t exist. I think the most likely one is Miss Jane. If you become president, I can rest assured. If the person reading the letter right now is anyone other than Jane, I apologize in advance. Think of it as just an old man’s senility. You are fully qualified to become president.]
Ospreet seems to understand the structure of this situation. He knew that after he was gone, someone else would take his place as president.
I think it was the realm of guesswork that it was Jane, but even that was correct.
[But unfortunately, this magic is not yet complete. You can change people’s perceptions and fill in the gaps, but it won’t be long before serious contradictions are discovered and the magic is destroyed. But don’t worry too much. It just goes back to the way it was. All I hope is that the world’s daily life will proceed naturally until then. During the short days before the magic was destroyed.]
“…Just looking at what’s written, it seems like the President himself has removed himself from the world.”
“I guess so. But since I’m the president now, can you please stop saying things that confuse me?”
Jane glared at me. It was quite refreshing to see Jane completely convinced that she was the president.
[As the headmaster, you can probably use very high-level magic. I don’t know if you recognize it as your original magic, but I want you to know that I had a little help with that power. Of course, you don’t have to do that. Now, it is entirely your power.]
“General… Are you saying that you are borrowing Ospreet’s power?”
“It feels that way. I have no choice but to honestly admit this. I was able to use magic that was completely out of order with the magic I had learned so far. “Of course I thought it was mine, but I was somewhat reluctant about it, but after seeing this letter, I was convinced.”
Jane at least recognizes that she is the president, and at the same time, she also recognizes that this situation is abnormal.
This is probably why Ospreet considers this magic unfinished. Small contradictions pile up layer after layer because of the clumsily designed setting.
[The reason I do this troublesome thing is simple.]
The letter continued.
[There is someone targeting me.]
The content from then on had a different tone.
[There was no way for him to escape anywhere in this world, so he had no choice but to go outside the world for a while. Ironic. If you don’t have a high level of skill in magic, you won’t be targeted by him. Right now, even this may just be a matter of buying time, but I’m hoping that there will be a solution within the time gained.]
Ospreet is being chased by someone?
Ospreet, who is currently said to be closest to being an archmage?
‘Besides, if you say there is no way to escape no matter where you go in the world, I can only think of one.’
…god.
Is there anyone among them targeting Ospreet?
Considering that he would not have been targeted if he had not had magical skills, it appears that the current Ospreet is indeed close to becoming an archmage. If his position rises to that level, God’s hand will reach him.
[So, as president, you can just carry on as usual. As always, I work as a president at Constell, research magic, and learn the skills of combat. I hope you can continue on as you were when you didn’t read this letter.]
It seems like he is saying that his magic will never harm other people.
[However, the reason I am leaving a letter is because there are two things I want you to protect.]
As soon as I saw that phrase, I had an ominous feeling and squinted.
When I turn my gaze to Jane, I sigh proudly.
[First, don’t get caught by Frontier de Roach.]
It was immediately out.
[He is the most difficult person for me to judge in all of Constel. I am convinced that he is an ally, but his power is truly unprecedented. What you need to fear most when dealing with him is not magic or technology, but knowledge. I don’t know how much he knows. I hope you think so too.] It seems that
for Ospreet, I was someone to be wary of. Although they call me an ally.
It seemed to me that being discovered meant that I should be on guard because I didn’t know what might happen, rather than that something was definitely going to happen.
[And secondly, this magic I have just unleashed is approaching great magic. Although it is unfinished.]
I know that without having to say it. A change in perception on this absurd scale could truly be called great magic.
[Magic on this scale has a very precise structure. I think I have taken sufficient precautions, but if a force other than the standard is applied, something unexpected may happen.]
At that time.
Suddenly, a knock was heard at the door.
[So, although I have not been assigned a role like you, I am judged to be most likely to interfere, even if unconsciously, with this great magic—]
“Excuse me, President. This is Elodie. “I have something to discuss.”
Jane and I were silent at the same time and looked at the door where we heard the knock.
[—Don’t get caught by Inies. This is more important than not getting caught by Frondier.]
