Academy’s Weapon Replicator Episode 297 Chapter

88 Lili’s Knight (7)

When the attack engulfed Lili, Lili’s mansion looked as if it had been bitten by a dragon.

There are no users in Lili’s mansion, and this is not where the knights stay.

The reason Frondier came to see Lili this late at night was also because there was no one else around at this time.

But the mansion has become like this.

“Ugh…. How dare you…!”

It was natural for Lili’s knights to attack and swing their blades at Frondier.

It was also natural for Frontier to subdue them all.

“How dare you visit Leah Lis’s mansion…! After all, I shouldn’t have brought you in!”

There is one thing that Frontier was certain of while fighting them.

Lili’s knights are too weak. Probably even more so than the first year Constel students.

Therefore, Heukcheon alone was able to suppress this large number without difficulty. I thought highly of Lili’s sense of danger and her refusal to take care of herself, but it was still easy. In other words, it was so easy that it was possible to subdue it without killing it.

“….”

Hana Frondier did not move even after suppressing all of them.

Lili feels like the long period of time she is trapped in is torture, and indeed, Frontier intends it to be. But in reality, Frontier was also putting off his own decision.

Lily tricked me.

Lily was also a devil.

Then what I have to do is clear.

Caw—

While Frondier was thinking, a crow could be heard from afar.

A crow sat on his shoulder.

[Reporting from Frontier.]

“…Gregory.”

[I know roughly what the situation is, but listen first and then decide.]

“Yeah… that’s right.”

We have always fought using all possible means based on information and circumstances.

It won’t be any different now.

When Frondeer nodded, the crow’s mouth opened.

[Laurier said that most of the knights belonging to Leah Reis are criminals.]

“Criminals?”

[okay. To be exact, they are the lower levels of a criminal organization. If they leave Lili’s side, they will rejoin the group and commit crimes. Other than that, there’s nowhere else to go.]

Knights who swear loyalty to Lili. However, even if the knights pledged loyalty, even their families would not be loyal to Lili.

I was wondering why there was no noise between the driver’s family and Lili, but I wondered if they were people who had no family to begin with.

[Lily has a deeper relationship with Ambu than other zodiacs. Every time Lili takes a man under her command, the undercover covers up that man’s criminal record. But it doesn’t delete it. You never know when you might leave Lili’s side.]

“Why is the shadow helping Lili? Even if that were the case, there would be no benefit.”

[As you know, Ambu works for the empire. All of Lili’s knights are under ‘enchantment’, but it doesn’t mean they have lost consciousness or their memories have been erased. It’s not like my personality has changed. So, they have their own information and knowledge about their own organization. Since they are the lowest level, there is nothing special about it, but when the lowest level people gather to that extent, useful information comes out.]

“Lili’s knights are loyal to Lili, so there is no need to hide that information, and Lili is giving their information to the shadowy. Instead, the shadow hid Lili’s knights.”

[Yes, that’s the deal. The Shadow is a group that the empire tolerates. It is a problem because there is no distinction between its hands and means, but it is tolerated because the benefits it brings to the empire are great. There was a lot of friction with you, though.]

Frontier knows that too.

Frontier does not completely exclude Ambu because of the character ‘Laurier’, among other things.

I saw Laurier’s thoughts and how he moved in the dark, as he was prepared to give up his life in front of the fragments of Helheim in Jeranhes.

“…What about Ameline? “Did you ask?”

[I asked, but Laurie didn’t have any other information. This is information that the general public knows. It doesn’t seem like Ameline is related to the dark side.]

“Then that means Ameline is really an ordinary person who got caught up.”

[okay. It is true that Lili tried to save her. He was prepared to be hostile to the dark woman with whom he had a close relationship. I don’t know why.]

Frondier sighs at those words. His eyes fell forlornly.

“…Are you here to stop me? Gregory?”

[why me? I just came to report. You ordered it.]

“I think you’re defending Lili.”

[It’s an illusion.]

“Liri uses charm to deal with these people, but does the fact that she pulled them out of a criminal organization give her immunity?”

[Well, it’s none of my business. And Lili probably doesn’t hire knights thinking of exoneration or anything like that.] Whether

you want to have your own knight or want to rehabilitate a criminal, there are countless other ways. It would be even easier if you were someone as big as Lili.

Riri was just doing whatever she wanted.

[Liri is a devil, Frontier. You probably know.]

“So?”

[You know this because you’ve met a few demons, but don’t try to judge their way of thinking from a human perspective. It’s not just the devil. The same goes for monsters and gods. They are not humans.]

Those words reminded Frondier of all the non-human beings he had ever met.

They basically didn’t understand each other. The same was true for the monster Kraken, which was hostile from the beginning, as well as Rudra, the god who loved Elodie.

[If you say you want to kill Lili, I will say so. Lili is a devil. That alone is reason enough to kill him. Besides, he was trying to take advantage of you, wasn’t he? ‘Fascination’ is a dangerous power. I don’t know what you would have done to me if you had been charmed. At least he will act completely different from the ‘Frondier de Roach’ I knew.]

Gregory said. There are enough reasons for Lily to die. And all of those reasons were the reasons Frontier thought of. As expected, the thoughts were consistent.

[By the way.]

But there the crow’s head tilts.

[Why are you asking me? Frontier.]

“…!”

[I didn’t mean to do that at all, but I came to stop you? Why are you looking for forgiveness for Lili’s actions? The reason I reported this to you was because I didn’t want you to make a ‘wrong decision’ due to insufficient information. If it is reasonable for Lily to die after listening to me, then so be it. I think I am worthy too.]

“Gregory….”

[I will not interfere with what you do.]

Frondier’s eyes look into the eyes of the raven.

[But if the reason you asked me a question was because of hesitation.]

Beyond the crow’s eyes, I look into the eyes of Gregory, who is still quietly in a prison somewhere.

[Your face doesn’t suit you right now.]

“….”

Frondier silences himself once again. Today, he is often silent and sighs, and eventually he sighs once again.

The gaze that quietly seeps in with that sigh.

The crow said after checking it.

[Have you decided?]

“Not yet. “I need to check something.”

After saying that, Frondier approached one of Lili’s knights.

Even here, he was fighting Frontier in the lead and was the same man who had argued with Frontier a few days ago.

“hey.”

“If you’re going to kill me, kill me quickly.”

“I have something to ask.”

“I will answer your damn questions.”

“If Lili dies.”

The knight’s eyes burn at Frondier’s words. The body bound by Frontier’s black cloth trembled, and its muscles swelled as if trying to tear the black cloth with force.

Looking at that, Frondier continued speaking.

“What are you going to do?”

“…I will kill you. I will tear your limbs apart and hang them in the square. “I will reveal your ridiculous appearance to countless people who believe you are a hero.”

Words filled with curses. Frondier’s eyes close for a moment.

So said Frontier.

“Yeah, I guess so.”

“…what?”

“After you kill me, tear me limb from limb and hang me in the square, then.”

When Frontier opened his eyes again, there was no momentum. In response to the threat of killing himself, Frondier looked at the man without any sign of ridicule or ridicule.

“What are you going to do next? “After you get justice for killing me.”

“….”

“Are you going to become a criminal again?”

The man’s eyes widened at Frondier’s question.

When Lili dies and is gone, the man has no one to be loyal to. There is no place to be anymore.

So, should we go back to our original position, that is, join a criminal organization and live there?

The man, who understood the meaning and bit his teeth, spoke.

“…I will become a knight.”

“Even without Lily?”

“Lia Lis will take me from my insignificant form now, but I will become a worthy knight. “I won’t go back to that kind of den of crime.”

Hearing those words, Frondier raised his gaze upward.

Check the faces of other knights who may have been listening to their conversation.

After checking their eyes, facial expressions, and determination.

“…is it.”

Frondier stood up.

I turned back and walked briskly. Toward the workshop.

Surprised by that, the man shouted.

“Frondier! wait! Damn you! Let go of this! “Ugh!”

The man struggles, but he cannot overcome the dark sky with a body that cannot properly deploy its aurors yet. The same was true for other knights.

Frondier glanced at the figure and said.

“If you want to become a real knight, improve your skills.”

After saying that, Frondier opened the door to the workshop and entered.

* * *

When Frondier went inside and checked on Lili.

There were quite a few cuts from the blade all over Lily’s body, and blood was flowing.

Whoosh—

When Frondier removed the blades that touched Lily’s entire body, Lily sat down as if her body had lost all strength.

Lili’s voluptuous figure and bold outfit. In addition, blood flowed from wounds all over her body, and blood-soaked clothes stuck to her body.

Lily exhaled a shallow breath, looking both creepy and perverted.

“…a little late.”

Frondier said that because he had literally been worrying longer than originally expected. But it probably won’t sound that way to Lili.

“…Hehehe. Ahahaha.”

Lili lowered her head and let out an emotionless laugh. Frondier’s approaching steps stopped.

This is what they did against Zodiac. Is it already too late to decide what to do with Lily? Will Lili and I end up having to fight to kill each other?

“You really…”

Lili’s voice trembles. And the frontier’s vigilance increased accordingly. The black sky of the Frontier vibrated as if responding to Lily’s voice.

And Lili lifted her head up.

“You’re strong!”

He said.

“…yes?”

“Oh really! I had no idea it would exceed my expectations this much! These weapons really can’t move! I tried to escape using auras whenever possible, but every time I did that, the angle of the weapons changed strangely, so I had to prepare for fatal injuries if I tried to escape. “It was amazing!”

Lili’s eyes sparkled, like a child expressing her feelings after riding an attraction at an amusement park.

“Ameline’s escort mission was solved in a way I never thought possible, and charm didn’t even work! Plus, the way you look when you’re angry is so true! Wow, how long has it been since I felt my heart sink against a human! No, you could have been more angry than that? Still, it’s not that common, right? I guess I was the only one who saw that expression, right? Even your friends and colleagues who were close to you probably haven’t seen that face!”

…What kind of situation is this?

Frondier quickly turned his head as he looked at Lily’s sparkling eyes.

Is it really acting? While you’re acting like that, are you waiting for the right time to run away or counterattack? But that doesn’t mean that this is Frontier’s territory in the workshop. Any abnormalities within this are detected by Frontier.

The interior of the workshop is too calm to be said to be decorating. Lili doesn’t even feel the slightest sign of life.

“…I expected him to be either ready to kill me or tremble in fear, but he looks completely different.”

“Are you prepared to kill me? why me? Oh, it was so scary. It’s still like that. “It makes my whole body tremble.”

Lili seemed to accept the fear that Frondier was trying to give her as if it were the thrill of a horror movie, and a look of pleasure appeared on her face as she said she was scared.

“You gave me what I wanted.”

“Is this what you want?”

“I wanted to know who you were. What kind of person is this? “What are your tendencies, what values do you have, and what choices do you make at important crossroads?”

Lili has always been like that ever since she met Frontier. As Frontier knows.

Lili continued to test Frondier, curious about his reaction and watching his choices.

“…Was it that important? To the point of losing your life?”

“Well, I didn’t want to lose my life and I didn’t know I would, but let’s put those two on the scale…”

Lili tilted her head for a moment.

There was no time to worry about it.

“Well, that’s right. “It’s more important for me to know what I want to know.”

He said.

—Do not try to judge their way of thinking through human eyes.

It was no wonder that Gregory’s words just lingered in Frondier’s ears.

“So, I guess you were quite satisfied because you saw the ‘face of anger’ that you wouldn’t carelessly show to others?”

After saying that, Lily raised her arms. It’s like a believer waiting for God’s grace.

“Now kill me.”

“….”

“I’m done now. I’m sorry that things happened like this, but it can’t be helped. “You will never forgive me.”

Lily closes her eyes. He quietly waited for the blade to plunge into him.

“….”

“….”

And Frondier watched quietly. Without saying a word.

“…um Frontier?”

“….”

“My arm hurts”

“Quiet.”

Lili silences her mouth again at Frondier’s words.

As things went on like this, Frontier quickly became cold.

Indeed, do not look at it from a human perspective. That was indeed true. It seemed like Frontier was starting to get a sense of how to treat Lili.

‘Lily doesn’t give her life a high priority. I don’t know if all demons are like that, but if they could understand it, they would be more useful than humans.’

Meanwhile, Lili slowly opened her eyes. It’s not like Frontier told me to close my eyes.

Lili looked into Frondier’s eyes.

The look in your eyes that you saw in the emperor’s bedroom, Lidyu’s mansion, and the imperial palace conference room.

It was the look in his eyes that completely excluded his own temporary emotions and desires, which even Frondier himself used as chess pieces.

‘…Ah, it would be a waste to die like this.’

When Lili thought so.

“Leah Reese, I have a question for you.”

“…Can I put my arms down?”

“If you think it’s okay to get off, get off.”

If you answer like that, you can never get off.

Frondier said to Lili, who was still holding her arms.

“Why did you want to protect Ameline? “He has nothing to do with you.”

“There’s a lot going on in that kid’s family. I was close with my uncle, but suddenly he went missing and I couldn’t easily trust anyone, including my family. That may have been due to the fact that they were obsessed with the fantasy of a knight protecting them.”

“…So what does that have to do with you?”

Lili said in response to Frontier’s question.

“I don’t like that.”

“hate?”

“I mean, I’m alone.”

At that, Frondier stopped talking.

…Is that really Lili’s principle of action?

“Lily, you were alone too.”

“yes. I have almost no memories of my time in the demon world. When I came to my senses, I was on this continent. “I have no intention of going back to the demon world anymore, so I’m staying here.”

“So you can’t leave someone alone? Are knights like that too? “Because they are part of a criminal organization with no parents?”

“Rather than saying I can’t leave it alone, it’s something I want. It’s not like I can save everything. “What matters is appearance, not appearance.”

That’s what’s devilish about it.

Lili takes the lowest level of a criminal organization under her command.

It is not the justice of saving people from crime or the compassion of wanting to protect those who are alone.

Lili only moved for her own sake.

“…okay. “That’s not moral.”

“This is desire, Frontier.”

Riri said.

“The devil is not driven by morality. It’s hard to understand that in the first place. The reason I live in this world is not because I fit into human society. “It just so happens that the ‘desire’ I have is somehow allowed here.”

In other words, although Riri is smart, her starting point is simple.

Unlike humans who take a long time to decide what they want and what to do, Lili is the type of person whose mind has already been decided due to overly simple principles of action and who uses her brain to achieve it.

‘If the principles of action are simple, it will be good to take advantage of both. There is no need to worry about whether he is a good character or a villain. ‘Because he’s a devil to begin with.’

If he could continue to bring out Lili’s desires, it would not be difficult to make Lili a complete ally.

If you can’t trust Lily, there’s no need to trust her in the first place. Bring out her desires as desired.

Frontier Is that possible for you?

While Frontier was thinking for a moment, Lili spoke as if something suddenly occurred to her.

“Actually, it was the same for you, Frontier.”

“…I have family and friends.”

“Yes, that’s right. “I knew that, but somehow.”

Lily says that and tilts her head.

“Why? “I thought you looked like me.”

It’s a bit annoying, but he doesn’t show it.

Frontier had similar thoughts.

Frondier, who suddenly enters this world, and Lili, who lives in the human world knowing that she is a demon. Lily must have felt somewhere that she was fundamentally alone. Just like Frontier did.

“…lower your arms.”

“You’re not going to kill me?”

“It is true that he saved Ameline, and I am angry that he used me in the process, but in the end, it worked out well.”

“…I also put a charm on you?”

“It’s okay because I didn’t get caught.”

Lily lowered her arms.

Then, while rolling his eyes here and there, he slowly opened his mouth as if it were something difficult to say.

“…I’m the devil?”

Devils should not exist on this continent.

There is no need to study how humans on the continent treat demons. When you live on this continent, you automatically develop a hatred for the devil.

There are times when humans are good and there are times when they are evil.

All devils are evil. That’s why he’s a devil.

It is impossible for a citizen of the Empire on this continent not to be equipped with this idea. No matter what wise man he is.

However, Frontier is different.

To him, the continent’s hatred of demons is nothing more than ‘knowledge’.

“What’s wrong with you being a devil?”

Frontierman can say so.

“….”

At that moment, Lili couldn’t help but resurface the desire she had tried to forget.

A desire to know the frontier.

How can Lili think beyond her options and how can she be so strong and yet not be able to use charm?

How can you say that at this moment?

While Lili was looking at Frondier blankly, Frondier spoke.

“First of all, the period is not over yet.”

“period?”

“One month to be your knight.”

ah. Lily made a noise as if she had forgotten something.

“So let me say it again. Leah Reese.”

“huh?”

“If you tell me to be a dog, I will be a dog.”

Leah Reese opened her mouth.

“If you tell me to die, I will die.”

Are you saying that in this situation? really?

Since Lili is a demon, she is a bit more lenient compared to others when it comes to standards for ‘weird people’.

Frontier is a really, really strange person!

“So, no matter what happens again.”

But Frondier’s words were not over.

Frontier has a face that is truly difficult to tell whether he is angry, sad, or feeling nothing at all.

“Don’t lie to me.”

“…If I refuse and ask you to tell me how you didn’t get charmed in exchange for killing me, will you listen?”

“no. “Think about it yourself.”

Lily’s eyes wavered at that. Lily couldn’t say anything and just looked at Frontier.

But Frondier did not wait for her answer.

“Li Li Li Lis!”

“Lia Lis!”

The defense was lifted and the fallen knights found Lili and shouted.

Frontier manipulated Adae and recovered all of the Black Heaven. Some of the knights who regained their freedom tried to kill Frondier, but Lili stopped them.

“It seems there was a misunderstanding. “Frondier saved me.”

“You saved me?”

“Okay. Let’s talk about the details later.”

While Lili was explaining things to the knights.

Frondier turned around without looking at anyone and let out a soft sigh.

…I remembered what Gregory said just before entering the workshop.

—Frondier When you fought Belfigor, you only withstood the power of sloth, but it wasn’t ineffective.

—So be careful.

—Even if it doesn’t reach the power of the Seven Sins.

—You may have been ‘enchanted’ without even knowing it.

“We will find out for sure in a month.”
