The Academy’s Weapon Replicator - Chapter 403

Chapter 117 Priest (2)

Upon accepting the bet, Zenita asked me various questions about the book.

She must have had many things to believe in. The belief that you know more about this book than I do, the thought that I didn’t read it properly, and above all, the flaw in this bet.

Zenita said that if I answered all the questions correctly, I would be considered the winner. However, the total number of questions was not set.

If she puts her mind to it, she can create endless problems until I can’t get them right. In other words, if it were normal, there was no chance of her losing.

“…Problem No. 48.”

However, I am not bragging.

I am not normal.

“What is Sister Gorgo’s weakness?”

“no. “It would be a good idea to dig up a clumsy trap problem like that.”

“Ugh….”

I can see with my own eyes that Zenita is sweating coldly. Now that Zenita had spoken, she was thinking about the problem.

The problems I had thought of from the beginning had long since run out, and I was somehow taking the content in the book out of my head and creating problems on the spot. Of course, the difficulty and quality gradually decrease.

‘Besides, I can’t believe I’m betting with this book.’

The book I just read, or the book we bet on, is about mythology and monsters.

For me, who had to beat the game Etius, it was definitely an important and interesting item. And it’s no different here.

Zenitha is at a huge disadvantage just with weaving and crafting, but this is a topic of interest to me. Zenita may have thought it was a very good bet, but that was just her opinion.

“No, problem number 50.”

“It’s number 49.”

“Number 49….”

Zenita holds her head.

Some people may think I’m bullying them, but I’m the one who solves the problem. Even if the person raising the problem is trying to wrap their head around it, it will only be difficult.

“Number 49….”

“If I can’t think of anything, I give up. “I won’t ask Zenita anything that difficult.”

“Really? hot! No! “I don’t give up!”

Damn, we’re almost there.

To be honest, I’m getting tired of it.

The fact that Zenita had a strangely sincere personality made me even more bored. At this point, it would be easy to randomly ask questions that you don’t even know about, but Zenita tries to ask questions for which she clearly knows the answer.

Therefore, it can be considered that you know the book almost perfectly just by completing the 48 questions.

Zenita groaned and then, as if something suddenly occurred to her, she stood up and raised her arms vigorously.

“Woah, problem number 50!”

“It’s number 49.”

“Number 49!”

Zenita’s voice came back to life.

Did a difficult problem that I hadn’t even thought of come to mind?

But no matter what, I can’t be wrong as long as it’s in the book.

“On the continent of Agoris, where was Hercules last seen?”

“….”

To that question,

I remained silent for a moment.

Zenita must have believed that it was her victory, and she was flattered and told me.

“Hehe, how are you, teacher? You don’t know this, do you? “You can never know this unless you read the whole book and put it all together,”

“Student Zenita.”

“yes?”

“That’s not in this book.”

I handed the book to Zenita.

Show the table of contents yourself.

“This book is a summary of the gods and monsters that appear in mythology, their weaknesses and characteristics. Although Hercules appears, it is only a dictionary description. “It is not a book that follows the trends of the current times.”

“Huh?”

Zenita looked at the table of contents while listening to my explanation, and checked the section containing the contents of Hercules. At the same time, he makes a puzzled face and scratches his cheek.

It’s definitely true. Zenita mistakenly thought that her knowledge was contained in this book.

However, there is a fact that cannot be overlooked.

“Student Zenita, all the questions you have asked so far were ones you knew the answers to.”

“Yes, of course. Otherwise, you won’t know whether the teacher’s answer is correct or not.”

Yes. Zenita purely wanted to beat me in this form of betting.

That sincerity helped.

“Then Zenita knows the answer to the question just now?”

“The problem just now? Ah…”

Zenita tried to nod at my words, but when she met my eyes, she flinched for some reason and backed away.

I didn’t know why, but I asked her anyway.

“Where was Hercules last seen?”

“…By all means, teacher,”

“Yes?”

“It looks like they’re trying to kill Hercules.”

Zenita said with a somewhat frightened look on her face.

I blinked.

“Why do you think that?”

“Somewhere, the look in your eyes.”

“It can’t be. It’s pure curiosity. And above all, how shall I kill Hercules?”

“…Yes.”

Zenita answered like that, but looked unconvinced.

Still, perhaps out of her sincerity, she told me where Hercules was last seen.

‘It’s a bit far.’

Unfortunately, the distance here in Atlas was quite long. At least it wasn’t a distance that could be covered in a day or two.

“But where did you hear this information?”

“Well, I don’t know. “I thought it was in that book.”

Well, since I misremembered the source of the information in the first place, it is difficult to recall the original source.

“Okay, then I’ll just leave.”

So unnaturally, Zenita tried to stand up and asked,

“Where are we going?”

He stood firm in my words.

“Well, the bet is over, so I’m done…”

“I haven’t received the prize for the bet yet.”

“Wasn’t that information you just wanted…?”

I smiled brightly at those words.

“Of course it is. “If it had been a prize for a bet, I would have accepted.”

“Yeah, right?”

“But student Zenita gave me information in good faith. “That’s not what I received in return for winning, right?”

“Ah yes?”

“The product is separate.”

Zenita gapes at my words.

“Chi, it’s shameful.”

“I will make a home visit next time. “I want to make sure Miss Zenita is having a good life.”

“lie! “I’m just looking to see if there’s anything to take!”

“That’s bad to hear. “I’m just doing my duty as a teacher.”

After speaking, I put away my books and stood up.

“Next time, make sure to exchange information for appropriate value before taking it out. “That’s what it means to be an adult.”

“…Being an adult is a coward.”

Anyway.

It is cowardly, vile, insidious and dirty.

Of course, Frontier is only one year older than Zenita, but through this event, Zenita will become even more of an adult.

Pielot von Libanza goes by ‘Pielot di Libance’ on this continent. This is because the name ‘Phone’ is not used anywhere on this continent.

At first, Pielot had a hard time with the change in his name, but after a few days, he got used to it.

After that, Pielot felt a sense of nostalgia in this atlas.

“Pielot, how do you solve this?”

“Your swordsmanship just now was amazing! “How did you do it?”

“It’s amazing, my breathing is almost normal after this much training!”

People around Pielot admire whatever he does, and their gazes are full of envy and admiration.

These are the things he felt before entering Constel.

When he was young, it was just a set of compliments that filled him with pride, self-esteem, and conceit, but now he feels a little embarrassed.

‘…I see.’

In Atlas, there are no humans other than Constell.

Pielot is also one of the strongest players in Constel. And it was popular in Constel as well.

However, it was not unique. Aster Evans was clearly stronger than him in terms of swordsmanship, and his friend and rival Dier Ager always amazed Pielot, wondering how he could think like that.

and his teacher, Frontier de Roach.

When you say non-standard, you probably mean someone like that.

“It’s amazing. Pielot! “I can’t believe I developed these skills as soon as I transferred to the school!”

“Oh, yes. thank you.”

Mock sparring for combat practice.

A female student approached Pielot, who was resting after sparring, with sparkling eyes. They also gave me a water bottle.

What was the name? Anyway, it was clear that I was in the same class as Pielot.

It was discovered long ago that Pielot was a transfer student. Well, Frondier told me that I would be found out soon anyway, so I guess it turned out as expected. It was also right not to declare it in advance.

‘It’s a big deal.’

Pielot thought while drinking water.

I can’t generate power.

It is said that on the Agoris continent, the performance of weapons is prioritized over individual strength.

Some research groups say that their goal is to bring the performance of magical engineering weapons to the level of divine power.

‘…If you actually see the divine weapon, those thoughts will disappear.’

Pielot suddenly got chills as he remembered Frondier holding the hammer.

In any case, given the direction of the continent, no overwhelming individuals were visible in the atlas. Their average skills don’t seem to be much different from Constell’s, but they lacked something to be envious of.

Meanwhile, the character called Pielot, who appeared, was in a very good position to receive the favor of female students and the admiration and jealousy of male students all at once.

“You know, what did you do before you transferred to the school? “How did you become so strong?”

“Oh, huh? Well, I trained, yeah.”

Pielot remained silent. If it were like the old days, I would have been so excited by questions like this that I would have talked about all kinds of things. Even when I think about it myself, a lot has changed.

‘That’s why I’m worried.’

As Pielot lived in Atlas, he felt the anxiety in his heart growing little by little.

Here, there is neither Aster Evans, who is clearly stronger than him, nor his rival, Dier Ager.

The teacher, Frontier, is busy with teaching work and has no time to deal with Pielot, and of course the same goes for Elodie.

There are only people around him who praise him, and no one says anything displeasing or points out anything.

It’s the same as before. The past that made him a bundle of pride.

‘…I may be going back to that time without even realizing it.’

Recently, Pielot feels that his mind is slowly loosening.

Since there is no one to give his all to, he is now shrinking back so as not to reveal too much. If a third party were to see it, they would think it was an old-fashioned position that did not give its best and deceived those around it.

‘If it were normal, Frontier would have come by this time and made me realize my worth.’

Pielot still clearly remembers his first fight with Frontier.

No, that wasn’t a fight. I was taught one-sidedly.

That was when I felt the gap in skills between Frontier, who was just sitting on a chair, and later, after being beaten by Frontier, I realized my subject.

Pielot learned this only after learning from Frondier.

How terrible his arrogance was.

How desperately his foolishness had held him back.

A small voice came from Pielot’s mouth after drinking water.

“…Don’t be a fool, Pielot.”

“Uh, huh?”

The girl in front of him tilted her head, not knowing what he was talking about, but Pielot couldn’t see her anymore.

I remember Frontier’s cold eyes. Traces of Frontier’s worries were also visible to Pielot.

Frontier was very strict with him, and even in situations where he would have praised or cheered, he tried to refrain from doing so. This was clear when looking at the differential treatment between Dier and Pielot.

‘That’s how serious your foolishness is, Pielot.’

Pielot came to help Frontier. In order to become stronger, he secretly hid on a ship and attempted to cross the continent, even displeasing his teacher.

Was it to lead such a comfortable life?

Did he come here to hear a few compliments from the other students who were just a little late and who would overtake him in the blink of an eye if they let their guard down?

No, that’s absolutely impossible, Pielot.

“hey.”

At that time, someone approached him.

“…you.”

“It’s Ajax.”

Aias turned his displeased eyes at Pielot.

Aias also knew Pielot. It is a clear powerhouse that stands out especially in this atlas. This is a person that Pielot thought he needed to become close to in order to become stronger.

“You look quite proud. “Transfer student. Do you think you’re the best when everyone around you praises you?”

“A lot of tricks…?”

Pielot looked back at Ajax’s words and thought for a moment about what the gossip meant.

It’s full of arrogance and useless conceit.

‘Wait a minute, this.’

Pielot has seen a certain novel.

A transfer student came to a certain school. The transfer student was more talented than the other students, but because of that, he was very arrogant and arrogant.

A classic story about a man who, intoxicated by his popularity and skills, crosses the line to a female protagonist who dislikes him, gets beaten up by the protagonist, and is humiliated and disgraced by the entire school.

Pielot is a transfer student, next to him is a female student who handed him a water bottle, and the man who approached him is like the main character, who can easily be said to be the strongest in this school.

‘Oh, this!’

For a moment, Pielot’s eyes sparkled.

He stood up.

“Yes, I am proud!”

“…Uh, what?”

While Aias was confused, Pielot thought.

‘This is your chance!’

If it’s Aias, he will fix his rotten nature.

Pielot had no doubt about it.
