Academy’s Weapon Replicator Episode 267 Chapter
82 Flash
Notker felt strange while fighting.
The fight with Aster was a whistle. The sword strikes from each other barely grazed the edges of the skin and tore the collar.
A battle where people avoid and block each other with a difference of a piece of paper, and sometimes boldly attack and attack each other.
I don’t know how many moves were made against each other, but the balance of power was tense.
So there is something I know.
‘…what?’
I didn’t even notice because of the ongoing battle of whistles.
Soon Notker comes to a terrifying thought.
‘Why is there such an equal fight from the beginning of the fight until now?’
At first, Notker responded lightly to see Aster’s skills. Aster blocked it with poor defense.
After that, I raised my aura in response to Aster’s provocation, which was not a provocation, and started using my original skills.
From the time I relaxed and fought, to now I am exerting my full strength.
All of that is strangely a ‘whistle’.
‘what? No, that doesn’t make sense. ‘It can’t be!’
The Notker is a man comparable to the Zodiac. Mangot is an undisputed powerhouse. Not only that, but they are called the Shepherds of the Round Table, and their individual strength is never inferior to that of the Zodiac.
Whoosh! Shhh!
Wow!!
His sword grazes the side of Aster’s cheek. cut off one’s hair Their swords collide and they respond to Aster’s counterattack.
…it’s all a moment.
It feels like the sum of actors on a theater stage.
‘What am I fighting…’
Aster’s face is serious and strong as he faces battle, with a heavy air flowing through it.
But that serious attitude is as if.
“Ugh, you bastard!!!”
Notker’s sword was raised. It was a swift strike with a speed that Aster had been unable to avoid until now. The intention is to turn it into a power struggle.
one. “It’s
empty
below.”
With Aster’s short whisper.
Kwadangtang!
Notker fell forward. Aster walked his feet.
At that moment, Notker felt like a monster in front of the barrier he was watching. I remember the comical sight of Aster’s auras colliding with each other and falling apart.
“I got impatient and my movements got bigger.”
“what…?”
Notker stood up. It was a difficult statement to ignore.
Has the movement increased? Of course I know. However, with the speed of the Notker unfolding behind him, Aster responded by blocking all of them. Because I knew that, I was able to make big moves.
Until now, the speed was all defensive, but now, because the movement has increased, it counterattacks in response.
What this meant was clear.
‘…This bastard suits me…!’
It’s not that Aster couldn’t keep up with Notker’s speed.
It was matching the speed.
“How dare you fight like that against me…!”
Notker’s hands were shaking. I have never felt such humiliation.
In Mangot, where he was born and raised, all kinds of life was rampant. The people of Mangot, let alone the monsters, are not that foolish. A world where each side steals everything from the other whenever there is even the slightest gap.
However, they all had a desperate will to survive and kill their enemies, even if it was foolish to die in vain to the Notker.
Notker remembers the faces of people about to die.
So I found out.
That’s why I didn’t like Aster’s face.
“Aster Evans…! “You have no sense of desperation!”
There is no smell of death in Aster.
Notker’s auror focused on his sword. The aura flowing through the great sword has now expanded beyond the sword body and increased in thickness and length. It was the same method used by Frontiere to increase the length of the short sword with Auror. However, while Frontier uses it as a ‘trick’ method of momentarily adjusting the length of the blade, Notker deploys this all the time.
“Do your best! Aster!!”
Notker screamed. Naturally, the voice that came out of the auror resonated loudly throughout the area.
Aster frowns a little, as if it’s just a little noisy.
“You say the same thing.”
“Sounds the same?”
“Everyone I fight talks about. “Do your best.”
What is that sound?
So you’re saying that you’ve treated every enemy you’ve ever fought in this way?
“I’m giving it my all.”
“Where are you talking nonsense…!”
“With that proof, I was able to see your hidden power.”
“…!”
At that, the noteker stopped talking.
Aster still looks at Notker with serious eyes.
“What does it mean to give it your all? Is charging with all your might without thinking ahead with a force and speed that exceeds yours? “If I had done that, I would have been embarrassed by your aurors and lost my life right now.”
Aster’s aura swells. However, his sword body is not as long as Notker’s. It just becomes clearer and stronger.
“One of the biggest things I learned at Constel was that I don’t know anything about other people.”
It’s not that there were times when Aster’s heart became arrogant.
By receiving much stronger physical strength than others and possessing physical abilities that are ahead of others.
I grew up receiving hellish training from my older sister, who reached the peak with her swordsmanship.
It is safe to say that we have lived up to the expectations of not only Constel but also the continent. As his god ‘Baldur’ said, he was ‘the hope of humanity’ and he was aware of it.
however.
Some girls learned Auror skills much before him, and some
men like Ansuk had already shown exceptional talent in fighting.
My classmate walks away with the same expectations as a wizard.
‘…There is no one as pathetic as you, Aster.’
He mocks himself.
—I couldn’t be there for those guys when it mattered. It was like that when Constell was attacked and during the school trip. I couldn’t look around because of my own greed.
The voice of the pitch-black guy whose true nature is still unknown lingers in my ears.
I believed that I had seen other people without prejudice. You will believe only what you actually see and judge for yourself. He said he would not be swayed by other people’s rumors or gossip.
However, Aster himself eventually listened to Baldur’s warning and learned that the target was called a ‘human sloth’.
—Thanks to that, you became stronger. Because they saw me as a threat.
What did you do?
What were you looking at, Aster?
“No matter what you say, my way is the same.”
“…You’re still going to hide your power?”
“You probably still have some strength left.”
At those words, Notker felt an inexplicable chill.
Its identity was immediately apparent.
“I will fight until all your resources run out.”
“This guy…!”
The reason I don’t like Aster’s face.
Aster had not been looking at Notker properly since the first time they met.
His serious and cautious eyes were directed elsewhere.
“It would be so easy if I could read someone’s entire heart with something like a mortal mind.”
Aster’s cold eyes are still there.
From now on when you fight Notker, no matter who you fight in the past.
I am facing only one shadow.
* * *
While Aster was fighting Notker under the barrier.
Hector slowly began to feel dizzy.
“Put down the quiver! Archers! Even if it’s late, pull the bowstring all the way!”
He calls out to the soldiers on the wall, checks the knights’ situation, fills Aster’s gap, and at the same time looks sideways to see when Mangot will come.
At the same time, there is a confrontation between Aster and Notker.
It would be nice to have at least one more body, but I don’t think even one more would be enough.
‘Aster! Look at the situation! ‘Something’s wrong!’
Hector moved more diligently than anyone else and inspired the soldiers, but he himself was filled with great anxiety.
‘The quality of the monsters is low. Those who are weaker than the monsters outside are steadily coming in.’
If you do not know the situation of this barrier, Hector’s thoughts may seem like good news, but
the monsters outside always attack the barrier in the same way.
As time passes, the level of monsters invading the wall increases.
This is to exhaust human ranged means first so that high-level monsters do not take damage from arrows or catapults.
So, the fact that so many low-level monsters keep coming means that there will be a lot of higher-ranked monsters.
‘If you do it wrong, you may not have enough arrows.’
Of course, there are wizards stationed at the walls of Tavern. However, their magic has not yet been revealed. It is only used occasionally to wipe out large groups, and it is still too early to use it in full force.
This is a fact known to both humans and monsters.
Although the monsters seem to be dying out now, it is only natural that humans have the advantage in this battle, and the real war has not yet begun.
Wow! Every time a bird makes a scream-like sound and flies over the barrier, the barrier becomes crowded. Things that are difficult to hit with an arrow and cannot be reached with a sword are easiest to target when they approach to attack humans. And if you fail that much, a soldier’s life is lost.
The increase in the number of these monsters is like a signal announcing the ‘elevation’ of monsters.
There are more than 10 of them that fly next.
Wow.
Hector bit his molars.
His right hand spreads out and contains mana.
[This hand will become a spear that strikes in a torrent.]
[The spear will reach the enemy and aim for the next enemy.]
Rumble!
Hector’s hand stretched out, and in an instant, a flash of lightning flew towards the monster and struck it.
The lightning flowed around, burned the air, and disappeared, killing more than ten monsters at once and falling onto the battlefield.
“Whoa whoa… I didn’t want to use this magic.”
After using the spell, Hector held his trembling right hand.
His father, Ridwi’s special magic, ‘Chain Lightning’.
Since Ridwi was originally talented in lightning magic, his son Hector also has some talent in magic.
Of course, unlike Ridwi, it requires chanting, the casting speed is slow, and its power is less than that of Ridwi, but considering that he is not a wizard in the first place, it was a great spell.
“Captain! Are you okay!”
“Uh oh. “I just feel a little dizzy.”
The reason Hector does not use this magic is because of mana consumption. Of course, there is a sense of gratitude towards Ridwi’s magic, which he doesn’t even want to admit to being a rich man, but that alone doesn’t make him an idiot who hesitates to use it in war.
Hector was a warrior from the beginning. The absolute amount of mana is not much. Although the auror used by warriors is clearly the same substance as mana, the way the two are used is completely different.
If the fuel tank is important to a wizard, the engine is important to a warrior. While the wizard uses stored mana all at once, the warrior accelerates the circulation speed of the auror.
“Still, if this is the case, the ‘birds’ will be scared and watch the situation for the time being…”
Hector said and looked at the battlefield.
His mouth stopped.
The battlefield is still filled with only low-level monsters. They are still just ignorantly slamming their bodies against the wall. As if it was his role to become a corpse in front of him.
Compared to the human side, where arrows and magic slingshots fly, the monsters’ attack method is very simple.
Monsters, even those with high intelligence, usually do not use siege weapons. This is largely for two reasons.
First, monsters cannot unite like humans. It is a characteristic of an entity. The higher the intelligence of monsters, the more individualistic they become, and it is not easy for such people to come together to create siege weapons.
This is because materials, knowledge and technology are needed, and above all, a group must be maintained on the spot to create it.
And secondly.
“…What is that?”
A monster from the abyss that surpasses the monsters outside.
When they appear, siege weapons become worthless.
Sussssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss,
ssssssssssssssss at
too even though a huge group of people are walking towards the battlefield from far away.
They don’t scream like other monsters. The next steps led by that heavy body make very little sound.
They come quietly.
“…mi…!”
Of course, Hector was not the only one who saw it.
When someone’s mouth opened, Hector hesitated as to whether he should stop it.
“It’s a Minotaur!!!!”
I realized there was no point in it.
Everyone on the wall immediately raises their heads and looks into the distance.
After confirming that there was a cow’s face on the giants’ neck, they had no facial expressions.
“Whoa, whoa…!”
Hector is a strong man with excellent spirit. I feel the power of the Minotaur in the distance as if it were right in front of me.
…Hector cannot leave even a single claw mark on a single animal in a group of dozens of animals lurking around.
Naturally, his gaze goes beyond the barrier.
“Asteraa!!!”
Hector shouted. That might mean something. Of course Aster would have noticed the appearance of that group. But I had to shout. If I didn’t do that, I couldn’t calm down.
“….”
Aster just silently sees the Minotaur approaching from afar.
Notker, who was confronting him, was also surprised.
“Minotaur…?”
A monster of that size is already charging.
Even Mangot doesn’t know where or how the monster will break down the barrier. They just try to use that power to the extent possible.
At that moment, Notker’s head quickly rotated.
‘If you fight this guy here, you’re dead.’
Dealing with the Minotaur is more reckless than dealing with the Zodiac. It may be unreasonable for a wizard, but it is unreasonable for a warrior.
“Aster! Let’s postpone the fight until later! “It would be better for you to take refuge inside the wall too!”
Notker left those words and ran away from Aster. What he just said wasn’t something he did specifically for Aster, but rather he just said what Aster should do.
But Aster.
“…Somehow.”
I mumble something incoherent and just look at the Minotaur on the battlefield.
“I think that monster is the reason Frontier said that.”
–a few days ago.
Frontier informed Aster of the deployment location in advance.
At that time, Aster nodded without thinking. Although Tavern is a rough area, it is like no other place. Moreover, Aster naturally had to go to the most difficult place. Aster himself knew this better than anyone else.
however.
“…sorry.”
Frondier said.
His hand was shaking as he pointed at the map.
Frontier is scared of something. Aster was surprised, having never even thought about that.
“What are you sorry about? “It was something I expected anyway.”
At first, Aster thought it was because he was sent to Tavern.
“Sorry. “No matter how hard I tried, this was the best for me.”
“…?”
Frondier’s trembling hands soon clenched into fists, but the trembling still did not stop.
He clenched his fists so hard that blood dripped from them.
“Hey hey.”
“I’m done here. Even after using all kinds of methods and doing all kinds of dirty things in the name of efficiency.”
“…what?”
“Knowing that and knowing that you have never gone further than this, I have no choice but to send you here.”
Frondier muttering something incomprehensible.
“You are the Aster Evans I don’t know.”
“So what do you mean?”
“So I had no choice but to place miserly expectations.”
Aster’s head tilted.
I still don’t know what’s going on, but I know one thing.
These are not the words that Frondier conveys to Aster. Frondier was muttering something similar to atonement and repentance coming from somewhere.
“…Aster.”
“why?”
“Please tell me that my past self was just incompetent.”
…and now.
Aster didn’t understand Frondier’s words at the time, and even now, he has no idea what he meant.
At this moment when I face the Minotaur, for some reason, Frondier’s words linger in my ears.
“Does that guy really see the future?”
—I’m done here.
—I have never gone further than this.
Aster mutters lowly, remembering Frondier’s voice.
“So, this is exactly what Frontier predicted.”
——Is it my grave?
The Minotaur finally found Aster taking a deep breath.
And the cow.
The cow saw him with its own eyes.
