The Academy’s Weapon Replicator - Chapter 408

Chapter 119 Kala

“So I decided to take over the investigation from President Kala.”

Frontier reported the situation from his room.

After his life stabilized, his room suddenly became a kind of strategy conference room. Others began to take it for granted that they gathered here too.

However, gathering together was natural, but what Frontier said was not natural.

“…investigating the collar?”

Elodie asked with cold eyes.

“huh. “Originally, we decided to look into color, and it ended up being a request, so it worked out well.”

Frontier answered.

“They say Carla is an incredible beauty.”

Lily asked with cold eyes.

“I checked the photo and it turned out to be a stunningly beautiful woman. Thanks to you, there will be no more confusion. “It’s easier to find.”

Frontier answered.

“I heard it was an operation planned by Frontier.”

Selena asked with cold eyes.

“Rather than flirting, I’m trying to get to know each other and take time to get closer. “If the target group is single men, you might recommend me to trade information as well.”

Frontier answered.

“….”

“….”

“….”

And there was silence.

Arald and Pielot read the mood and quietly retreated. Then, Frondier was faced with the cold gaze of the three women.

“…Why is everyone’s expression like that?”

Frontier asked, but no one answered.

After blinking for a moment, Frondier raised his eyebrows and asked.

“You really think I’m going to be swayed by Carla?”

Carla is a beautiful woman, and she trades information with single men. Of course, I still don’t know how the transaction is carried out.

Do they think that Frontier will be captivated by Carla’s beauty and go astray?

Frontier was quite confident about him.

“don’t worry. “Because we have dealt with that well in our own way.”

Selena originally approached Frondier to seduce him, and Riri used her power, ‘Charm’.

Frondier realizes that he is under the influence of charm, but his appearance is very different from what Lili expected.

“…It’s the opposite, you idiot.”

Elodie said with a sigh.

“the opposite?”

“Yes, you. “What are you going to do if things go too well?”

Are things going too well?

Frondier tilted his head as if asking if that was a concern.

“If it works out well, that’s good. Solve requests, receive rewards, and prevent unknown threats latent in the Atlas.”

“Not that one.”

Lili shook her head, and Selena took a step closer to Frondier.

“Mr. Frontier.”

Selena’s expression was not only serious but also solemn.

“Uh, huh?”

Pressured by the momentum, Frondier asked again, and Selena said.

“The fact that this operation goes well means that Atlas’s commander-in-chief, Kala, gives his heart to Frontier.”

“Oh, uh, yes. “The expression is somewhat meaningful, isn’t it?”

“If that happens, your relationship with Carla will still remain even after the request is over. What would you do in that case? “What if Kala takes a deep interest in Frontier and the situation becomes more difficult than before the request was made?”

Frontier’s identity has been thoroughly prepared thanks to Bael’s help, but that does not mean it is perfect.

Fake identity to begin with. If you put your mind to it and dig deep, you will definitely find contradictions. Especially if he is someone like the head of Atlas.

Being attracted to someone means being interested in them. I want to know more and see more. The closer an obvious outsider like Carla gets, the more dangerous Frontier’s identity becomes.

Frontier answered.

“How can you possibly be that interested in me?”

Selena lowered her head. Her anxiety cannot be conveyed to Frondier.

“For a long time, there was something I really wanted to say.”

Elodie said there.

“Frondier, you have a weakness for women, right?”

“…What?”

Frondier heard something completely unexpected and looked at Elodie.

Are you weak towards women? I can confidently say that I have never looked up to the sky.

“Elodie, you don’t know. If you knew how I treated the woman I assumed to be my enemy,”

Selena shivered for some reason when Frondier said those words.

Elodie responded without losing.

“But in the end, they are all alive. “Selena is like that, and so is Riri.”

The first meeting and situation for these two was not that refreshing. But now I’m on Frontier’s side.

He spoke as if he remembered Leah Reese there.

“…I see. I heard that you joined hands with the first princess of the empire, Elysia. “That person was an enemy who threatened the entire Constel.”

“A girl named Kian who raided a classroom in Constel. I heard you were a member of Indus. Why were you being so gentlemanly in class? “You just suppressed him with Black Heaven and finished without a single wound.”

A small doubt raised by Elodie. As if it occurred to them, the remaining two also expressed their opinions, not to be outdone.

Frondier, who had not heard anything, sighed and said.

“It’s because I think that way.”

“Then how can you think otherwise!”

“I don’t want to kill anyone, man or woman! “Do you think I am some kind of murderer?”

ah. There, Elodie made a sound as if she understood.

Frondier spoke with his eyes closed as if he were tired.

“I almost got killed by senior Edwin, but now he is someone I can trust, Gregory was also my enemy, but became on my side, and Arald’s company caused an uproar, but Arald is helping me now. “The only things I end up with are enemies that I can’t improve upon.”

And although I didn’t say it, professional Eden Hamelot was also one of the people that Frontier took advantage of. You can’t call it a trust relationship.

Moreover, Renzo also followed Frontier’s strategy. It was a relationship of trust and all, but it was just a crazy situation.

“I didn’t want to say this in front of you, but I will say it right now.”

When they opened their eyes again, Frondier’s eyes were familiar to them, but they were eyes that always gave them the creeps.

“It’s a coincidence that the one I killed until now was a man. If a woman did something like that, I would kill her. My way. “I don’t ‘just’ kill those who oppose me.”

At those words, not only the three women, but also Arald and Pielot’s eyes widened.

As the atmosphere became heavier, Frondier looked around for a moment and spoke.

“See, this is why I didn’t want to talk about it.”

Lily scratched her cheek.

“…Well, well. I understand your determination. “So you’re saying you’ll respond calmly to Carla if necessary?”

“That was my intention from the beginning, and my response is cold-hearted, regardless of whether it is Carla or anyone else. I said it from the beginning. The purpose is not to seduce, but the expression is a bit harsh in the first place. “I just learn the faces and listen to the stories.”

Liberto told him not to overdo it, and Frontier also had no intention of putting this investigation in danger.

His current stance is to have a close relationship with Carla as if there was no request in the first place. It was just that much.

Above all, Frondier received strict orders from his mother, Malia, not to put himself in dangerous situations that would leave him with scars. I never intend to do anything reckless.

“Do you know the location?”

When the women’s chill disappeared, Arald finally asked.

“huh. I think I’m taking part in a social event that will be held in a few days. It is said that they are putting effort into contacting nobles, so it is only natural. All I have to do is spend some time there, say hello, and come back. “Nothing happens.”

Frondier’s words eased the others’ anxiety a little.

Since Frondier said he wasn’t trying to seduce me and was just making friends, I didn’t think anything strange would happen.

As the atmosphere calmed down a bit, Lili asked.

“By the way, do you have clothes to wear when you go out in society?”

“Yes. “There is only one.”

After saying that, Frondier stood up. Briskly, his feet headed towards the closet as if he was trying to show me what clothes he was going to wear.

Lili, who was watching this quietly, suddenly remembered something and said.

“…You can’t believe I only have one, that outfit.”

“Ah, I guess you’ve seen Lili before.”

Frontier opens the closet and shows the clothes.

Completely black from top to bottom. The design creates a neat yet weighty feel, typical of Roach, making it a restrained yet understated formal attire.

The others imagined what Frontier would look like in those clothes, and Lily’s eyes twitched as she already knew what she would look like.

Frondier said while looking at his clothes.

“The Roach family made these clothes pitch black so that I would not be noticed at the banquet. “The downside is that it’s extremely uncomfortable to wear, but it’s perfect for this request.”

Then Frondier nodded as if satisfied.

Looking at that scene, the three women felt anxious again.

They were sure.

Frontier’s lack of selfish objectification is probably due to his family’s blood.

* * *

So Frontier attended the banquet. Believing that he won’t be noticed.

I don’t know where the assassin’s idea came from that he would be invisible to people because he was dressed in pitch black, but of course, that expectation was wrong.

‘…It’s strange.’

As soon as Frondier entered the banquet hall, he felt people’s attention. At first, I thought it was because a new person came in that attracted attention, but as time went by, interest seemed to increase rather than decrease.

‘Right. ‘It’s because I’m a new face.’

Frondier came to his own conclusion and stopped paying attention to people’s attention. I guess this is only for today. Frondier had no doubt about it.

Frontier felt that the first day of the request was a rest.

Of course, he had no interest in the banquet, but the workload was too heavy for him so far.

From teacher work to three-dimensional maps and mana crystals. Recently, even a single student has begged to become his disciple, which is giving me a headache.

Right now, he needed any excuse to rest his head.

‘The noise of people, the smell of alcohol and food, the looks and whispering voices of people passing by. It seems like they’ve gathered here just to distract me.’

Very perfect.

I can’t concentrate at all.

Frondier poured wine into a glass and tilted it lightly.

I heard that Carla would appear here today, but actually, for the first day, it was good whether she showed up or not.

There is no deadline for this investigation, and there is no need to tread into dangerous territory. If something like that comes up during the investigation, it’s a different problem, but at least until then, it’s peace itself.

‘Then let’s take our time and look for it. If you can’t see it, that’s fine.’

A frontier where you can truly enjoy legal leisure time. Although he doesn’t do anything worthy of a banquet, Frontier is starting to like the social scene quite a bit.

However, occasionally, people would come and talk to him, which was a little annoying.

In the Terst Empire, there was no one at the banquet who did not know him, for better or for worse, but here he had to explain who he was every time.

There are many families on the Agoris continent. This is because there are no conditions as strict as Terst for establishing a family.

So, unless you are from a famous family, most of them are unfamiliar to anyone. Although a family called ‘Roach’ does not exist on the continent, there are already many similar families.

However, not being famous means that the family’s prestige is not that great. Therefore, there were quite a few people who lost interest after hearing Frontier’s full name.

As a result, Frondier strangely spent more time talking to women.

‘…I felt it at the last imperial banquet as well.’

From Frondier’s point of view, it is time to separate, but the nobles who remain do not leave. What is their intention? Even though there was no further direction for the conversation to proceed, the conversation was taking place. Moreover, the content of the conversation is too mundane for me to feel any righteousness.

‘I’ll be stranded here and not be able to find my collar.’

Well, I guess it’s good. Today’s Frontier is simply full of leisure.

Frondier spent some time chatting with the nobles around him. It was neither fun nor boring. The words came out straight away without much thought, just static words that were only polite.

When Frontier was wasting his time like that.

‘──I found it.’

Frontier discovered.

Atlas’s chief, Kala. I brought a photo just in case, but there was no need to check.

An appearance that shines extremely brightly at this banquet. It’s so clearly different that you can find it without a photo by saying, ‘Find the prettiest person, that’s color.’

‘She’s that kind of beauty. When I think about it, I didn’t have to move my feet to find it.’

Even if he doesn’t do that, most eyes turn to Carla when she appears. There is no distinction between men and women. There was literally no need to think about where it was.

‘Shall I say hello?’

Just like that, Frondier tried to move towards Kala, but failed.

‘It’s a little annoying.’

Right now, too much attention is focused on Carla. And the attention focused on him is formidable.

Frontier wanted to get to know each other and build a relationship with Carla, but he didn’t want to brag about the process to the neighbors.

So let’s do it a little later, Frondier thought and nodded.

Carla was walking with a relaxed expression on her face. It was a gentle smile, but it did not waver, and clear confidence overflowed in the soft eyes.

And those eyes suddenly turned to Frontier.

Stand tall.

Then it stopped.

“…?”

Frondier felt doubtful about the action and drank the wine. I thought it was a coincidence.

“…ah.”

But Carla made a small sound, and her confident smile and composure disappeared, her pupils opened and her mouth opened blankly.

Her eyes, as if they were about to be sucked in, were fixed on the frontier, unable to move, and her neck trembled once.

‘…isn’t it?’

Frondier tried to deny it and tried to talk to other places, such as the nobles nearby.

Meanwhile, Carla lowered her head once, took a deep breath, and slowly walked towards Frondier with slightly trembling eyes.

When the situation became like this, all the nobles who were talking to Frondier shifted their gaze towards Kala, and of course Frondier could no longer talk.

Frondier sipped his wine and kept his gaze completely focused on that.

‘No, don’t do that. it’s not that.’

The worries and voices of the three women suddenly come to mind.

─You. What will you do if things go too well?

As expected, they were women whom Frontier could not dare pursue in terms of wisdom.
