The Academy’s Weapon Replicator - Chapter 3
Academy’s Weapon Replicator Episode 3
Chapter 1 Human Sloth Frondier (2)
I got used to the class.
This doesn’t mean I’ve started to understand the class content. I still have no idea.
I just save all the images of what I’m learning, whether it’s a blackboard or a textbook, in the workshop.
What I got used to was the atmosphere during class. It would be fair to say that everyone, including me, has gotten used to it.
Everyone slowly got used to me opening my eyes and looking at the blackboard in every class.
I think the fact that I don’t take any notes helped convince the students.
“Then let’s pose a problem here.”
The teacher took down the Wizard View that was on the screen.
The answer to your question is probably on that screen.
“Frondier County.”
The teacher who pointed at me looked very uncomfortable.
The fact that I am taking the class with my eyes open.
That may be appealing to some teachers, but it may be the opposite.
In fact, the reason Frontier was able to sleep throughout class was because he was a ‘child of the Roach family’.
At ‘Constel,’ the educational institution I attend, there is no distinction between nobles and commoners. The only distinction is based on skill.
However, this does not mean that all people inside are like that.
Constel’s system is a meritocracy, but the people within it have their own opinions.
Some people flatter the nobles and ignore the commoners, while
others take the commoners’ side without distinction and hate the nobles.
That’s what made Frontier’s position so interesting.
A teacher who flatters nobles won’t touch me while I sleep, and
a teacher who openly dislikes nobles will consistently ignore me whether I’m sleeping or not.
In other words, neither side interferes with Frontier’s laziness.
‘If you think about it that way, the teacher who first woke me up was a unique person.’
Just because I was a student, I woke him up because he was in class.
A very teacher-like response.
The more people like that, the more proper an educational institution it will be.
But the teacher in front of me right now didn’t feel that way.
The disgust in their eyes when they look at me proves it.
“What happened in year 144 of the Terst Imperial Calendar?”
…?
The answer to this question is contained in the content just displayed in Wizard View.
But it wasn’t even a few minutes since I saw it.
Other people must have written and taken notes with sincerity.
“You can answer after looking at the notes.”
haha. This lady.
Was it bad that I stayed still without writing it down?
I took out the image I had saved in ‘Workshop’. This is my ‘handwriting’.
While I took out the image and checked the contents, the teacher sighed proudly.
“Can’t you answer? If that’s the case, next time, please
write correctly.” “His Majesty Edezion Terst has passed away.”
Edezion.
Simply put, he is the grandfather of the current Emperor Terst.
To be honest, he is not an emperor that the citizens of the empire can be proud of. At that time, it was a time when the human realm was continuously shrinking due to monsters.
An incompetent emperor who left behind only a record of defeat.
However, anyone who had ascended to the position of emperor at that time would have suffered the same humiliation and died.
It was such a difficult and desperate time. Guess I was unlucky.
The teacher’s eyes on me became harsh.
Why do you look at it like that?
The student answered correctly.
“…That won’t be the only thing.”
“Immediately after the Emperor’s death, the Empire moved its capital to Cilester. This was the third and so far final capital transfer of the Terst Empire.”
I just look and read the images I took out.
It may seem cruel, but what can you do if they tell you to do it?
“At that time, the need for a combat training institution like Constel, where we are now, was highlighted and reached the legislative stage, but it was rejected. In the end, this choice was the right one. “At that time, the priority was to clearly solidify the boundary between humans and monsters.”
“…and?”
The teacher asked me as if he was anxious to see how far he could go.
But I’m just dumbfounded.
“…From next time it will be 145 years.”
Because I read it all.
“….”
“….”
A brief snowball fight.
Honestly, I don’t know why we have snowball fights.
Tendons appeared on the forehead of the teacher who was glaring at me.
After a while, she adjusted her glasses with a calm expression.
“great. Then, if you look at the next page-”
Wizard View reopened and class continued as if nothing had happened.
However, the teacher’s fingers occasionally trembled a little while the students giggled under their breath.

Strength measurement room.
This facility boasts the largest space in Constel.
There are only a few students with divine powers, but their powers vary widely, and their strength and scale also vary.
In order to measure more accurately, each student with magical abilities has a record sheet, and teachers comprehensively review the records to make an appropriate evaluation.
“…That’s amazing.”
And there is a girl standing here.
A creepy scene unfolding around her.
Cracked rocks, burnt soot, frozen ground, clearly engraved lightning patterns, etc.
A sight that is hard to believe was created by just one person.
Teacher Ales, who was watching her measurements, gulped.
‘Is this child the ‘Inies’?’
Inies is not her correct name. He was given the middle name ‘Inies’ because he was loved by the five gods.
Elodie de Inies Richae.
Elodie, the eldest daughter of the Lishae family.
A girl who possesses five magical powers that would be difficult for one person to possess.
It can be said that her future was almost decided at the young age of seventeen. It is a future that receives everyone’s envy, respect, jealousy, and envy.
“how is it? record.”
“Well, it’s almost the same as before. “You don’t have to worry about your record falling.”
Ales answered with a calm expression.
“no way. “I was hoping it would go up.”
Elodie said with a playful smile.
Aless smiled at me too, but broke into a cold sweat.
What if it goes up further?
However, there was something dark about Elodie’s expression when she told the joke.
She still has memories of Frontier, whom she encountered in the hallway.
-…I
waited for you with some kind of heart.
I couldn’t finish that sentence. I was distracted by a baseball that suddenly flew by.
But now I consider it fortunate.
Frontier and Elodie have known each other since they were children.
Although no one in Constel knows.
Roach, the family of Frondier, and Lyshae, the family of Elodie, have been allies and rivals for a very long time.
The ‘achievements of iron wall’ of Ampere, the head of the Roach family, are famous, but the Lishae family also had a lot of credit for those achievements.
It was inevitable that the two, who were the same age as the son and daughter of each family head, would get to know each other.
…It wasn’t that Elodie had any expectations from Frondier.
The son of Ampere and the younger brother of Atzier.
Everyone expected Frontier to have the same level of talent as them.
Elodie seemed to like that kind of thing.
As an old friend, I just hoped that Frontier would do his part properly.
But Frontier wasn’t like that.
He had neither strength nor talent, and even his character was unsightly.
I couldn’t even manage my daily life, let alone make an effort to develop my lacking skills or take responsibility for completing my duties.
The old feelings that I have seen since I was young have faded over time.
Frondier finally broke even the last promise he made to Elodie.
-Frondier Meet at the Constel East Gate after school. I have something to give you.
It must have been a promise that wasn’t difficult.
You must have been the one who answered that you understood.
…But Frondier did not come out in the end and tried to pass by Elodie in the hallway as if he did not know her at all.
‘…corridor.’
Elodie opened her eyes tentatively and asked Ales.
“…Teacher, if you were a teacher, how would you block the flying arrows?”
She recalled the small commotion that had occurred in the hallway while she was with Frondier.
A baseball flew out, broke the window, and she set it all on fire in an instant.
They bounced in the air during the fall.
This is clearly something Frontier did. I can’t figure out how to do that.
It was pointless to explain everything, so I changed the example to an arrow instead of a piece of glass.
“There are countless ways to do it magically, like burning it, freezing it, or blowing it away. All you have to do is make it lose its power. “Unless it’s a perm arrow.”
“…What would you think if someone said they could block arrows with an invisible wall or something?”
“Are you saying it was pushed out by the wind?”
“No, I mean it literally bounced off an invisible wall.”
“Have you seen someone like that?”
“Oh no! It’s just a family story. “It’s about what if that were the case.”
Elodie’s question may sound childish and stupid to other students.
But Ales thought seriously. Because the student who asked the question is Elodie.
Elodie must have thought what Ales thought first. Still, the fact that I asked this question means that I have some concerns about it.
…But even when I thought about it again, Aless’s conclusion was the same.
“That’s strange.”
“…Yes?”
“The most likely thing is invisibility magic. Whether it’s a wall, a shield, or anything else, it turns invisible and blocks arrows from objects that a person can lift. Then, when others see it, it can become an ‘invisible wall’. Literally. But invisibility magic is quite tricky. Rather than being truly transparent, we need to apply diffused reflection of light. Transparency can fail even with a slight calculation mistake. But even if this was successful, questions remain.”
“…Why are you doing that?”
“yes. If you want to block it, you don’t need to be invisible, so just a shield is all you need. You don’t even need magic. If you really want to use magic, there’s an easier way, and if you’re going to block it with a shield, there’s no need to make it invisible. “It doesn’t make sense.”
Elodie nodded, thinking the same thing.
…Moreover, I omitted the details for Ales.
In fact, shooting arrows is a wartime situation, and in Elodie’s case, it wasn’t even an arrow, but a piece of glass, just an everyday accident.
Who would carry something like a transparent shield in the hallway they usually walk down? While preparing for an attack that may or may not come one day.
Ales thought for a moment and slowly opened his mouth.
“There is one more thing, but this one is extremely unlikely.”
“What is it?”
“Well, it’s a nonsense story.”
“Still.”
Aless smiled bitterly. That expression alone told me that what he was about to say was absurd.
“I’m using an auror.”
“…Auror? “The aura contained in the warriors’ weapons?”
“yes. Mana and auror are originally the same substance called ‘ki’. If a wizard manipulates mana through formulas to achieve magic, a warrior inhabits the aura itself through tens of thousands of training and training.”
“But what does that have to do with invisible walls?”
“It may be an unfamiliar story to wizards, but warriors who have reached the level create auras even without weapons.”
Elodie’s mouth opened. Only then did I understand what Ales was trying to say.
I understand why this is nonsense.
“therefore… Are you saying that a warrior who reached that level created an auror the size of a shield with his bare hands?”
“It was a family story, right?”
“Oh, that’s right! As a story from home! “The question was whether something like that was possible.”
Elodie thought while answering that question.
Of course, there is no possibility that Frontier created Aurors.
Only a very small number of people can create an Auror with their bare hands and no weapons.
But you created an aura big enough to bounce off all those countless pieces of glass?
‘…Nonsense.’
In that case, either Frondier really did something foolish by casting an invisibility spell on the shield.
…Or what?
Aless smiled when he saw Elodie with a worried expression.
Elodie must have seen something.
But Aless was confident. What did I see wrong?
“But it’s just a theory. “No one can do that.”
“…Oh, that’s true too, isn’t it?”
“If there were just one person who could do something like that, the land of mankind would have been wider than it is now.”
“Is it that much?”
“If you were to create an Auror the size of a shield with your bare hands and no weapon, his body itself would be equivalent to a legendary weapon. That’s a legendary weapon that shoots at random. Imagine dozens of invisible weapons flying at you, and if you hit them, a hole just that size will be created.”
Elodie’s face darkened at Ales’ words.
“That’s definitely scary.”
