The Academy’s Weapon Replicator - Chapter 409

Chapter 119 Color (2)

“…Hmm, hello.”

He clears his throat without realizing it, and his tone is low and withdrawn.

Nervous voice.

I looked at Carla for a moment.

When you see it in person, you will definitely be impressed by its beauty.

Her long dark brown hair is wavy and flows down her shoulders, and her gray eyes are mysterious and intelligent.

A face line that looks too thin to be thin, a deep collarbone, and a delicate body falling below it.

‘A mature and sensual face that is clearly different from Elodie’s. Eyes and lips that seem to captivate the opposite sex regardless of their will.’

All of her beauty emphasizes femininity and vulnerability, but only her eyes and lips are full of confidence.

A natural femme fatale. There are countless men who have had their hearts pounding at the sight of her eyes and gestures.

‘…But it feels a little different now.’

The proud and confident look in her eyes was just like that a moment ago, and when she reached me, Carla looked like a scared baby bird.

Is this also acting? Is this a tactic that stimulates men’s protective instincts?

‘It doesn’t matter.’

“Yes, hello.”

I smiled lightly and returned the greeting.

This is the biggest thing I have learned since meeting Selena.

Don’t try to see through the other person’s acting.

I can’t do that anyway.

“….”

“…?”

But Carla just said hello and stood blankly.

It was a bit awkward to keep looking at it, so I spoke first.

“It’s called Frontier di Roach.”

“…ah! Ka, it’s Carla. sorry.”

Carla blushed and lowered her head.

It’s so different from the image I heard.

After greeting Carla, she carefully raised her face and opened her mouth.

“Well, I don’t think I’ve seen you at the banquet before, but I guess this is your first time at this party.”

“yes. “Not only here, but this is my first time holding a banquet.”

Of course, this only applies to the Agoris continent.

“Oh really? If you are a noble, I think you will participate often from a young age…”

As she said that, Carla quickly looked at my face, hair, and the formal clothes I was wearing. I am trying to determine the level of nobility I am by my appearance.

However, my face and hair were done by Elodie and Lili, and my robes were specially made by the Roach family. There is never any loss of dignity or appearance of inferiority.

“I was busy with work.”

In response to my answer, Carla smiled awkwardly and tilted her head. I don’t look old, so I guess that means what’s busy at that age?

“Excuse me, how old are you?”

“I’m twenty.”

“…What were you doing that prevented you from attending the banquet?”

There are many reasons why I cannot attend the banquet. I wasn’t the type to enjoy Terst in the first place.

We did everything we could to prevent the game from over, but these are stories that cannot be told here.

“It’s a secret.”

So, I said it with a vague feeling.

But for some reason, Carla’s eyes sparkled even more at my answer.

Honestly, I don’t know what the trend is right now.

I changed the subject.

“And now I am working as a teacher.”

“A teacher? “At that age?”

“haha. “As expected, you don’t know me, President.”

Carla’s eyes widened a little when I called her President instead of her name.

“…Oh my, no way.”

“I work at Atlas.”

Carla lightly covered her mouth with her hand. Even with gloves on, her delicate hands were evident.

‘Kala is so fragile on the outside. Her fragility gives strength to her beauty, but her body has never fought a battle.’

I heard that Carla is offering a deal to single men.

Her purpose was probably to seduce men with her beauty, so she probably didn’t have anyone with her.

However, if that happens, she will meet the man on her own and make a deal.

If the temptation doesn’t go your way, or even if it goes your way, the deal doesn’t turn out to be satisfactory.

Or, if the temptation goes too far and the man tries to pounce on Carla for a deal or something, will she have the means to respond?

‘At least the mana I feel through my sixth sense right now is not threatening. There is a possibility that Carla is hiding it.’

If it doesn’t work out physically, the thing to rely on is magic, but I don’t feel the same way about Elodie or Runia for Kala.

‘Are you doing a transaction without any countermeasures at all? ‘Believing that the man will move completely according to his will?’

no. That can’t be possible. There is definitely something there.

Something that is neither power nor magic.

To be honest, I was more interested in that than what Carla was dealing with right now.

“sorry. “I’ve been busy these days so I haven’t been able to go to Atlas.”

“I know. “I heard that Carla is focusing on her relationships.”

“…Did you know I was coming here? “Are you here to see me?”

A look of suspicion. I smiled at him.

“No way. “It’s just a coincidence.”

“Really?”

“If that were the case, I would have approached Mr. Carla first.”

Actually, that was my original intention. I don’t know when that would have been.

But now that the situation is like this, I have no choice but to take advantage of it.

“…I see, that’s right.”

Carla’s face turned red again as it was pointed out that she was approaching.

Actually, it was a bit difficult for me to respond. Originally, I thought that once I approached Carla, it would be a battle of whether or not I could overcome all the temptations she had at her disposal.

But Carla had been hesitant since earlier, her gaze wandering, neither leaving nor coming closer, just staying in that spot.

Could it be that if she takes that stance, men will automatically talk to her, and is Carla unknowingly playing with men in her hands? Is it an area that is too advanced for me to understand?

‘But whatever.’

My thoughts haven’t changed since before.

Let’s not try to understand areas that we cannot understand.

“then.”

I put down my glass and opened my mouth.

“It was nice to meet you, Mr. Carla.”

“Ah yes?”

“I hope I can see you again.”

I stood up.

We also confirmed that Carla would be attending this banquet, and we got to know each other and exchanged friendly greetings.

I could say that this was enough for today’s accomplishments.

My plan doesn’t work from the beginning.

Just making friends. It is a teacher’s duty that must be performed regardless of whether there is a request or not.

“I hope you have a happy night.”

I bowed politely and left.

Frontier’s body is strong against alcohol.

I felt moderately intoxicated and was able to leave the place unharmed.

* * *

Carla came home that day a little dazed.

She stepped into the empty house, hung her coat on a hanger, and paused.

“…oh my god.”

I heard that the host of today’s banquet was originally a famous nobleman, and the banquet was held with great success after the company was founded.

Of course, the intention of hosting any banquet is nothing more than an excuse, and the purpose is there. Exchanges between nobles, showing off each other’s influence, taking sides, including checks and balances, etc.

But today, that didn’t really matter.

“It’s a big deal. What do we do.”

She stood in front of the mirror. He checked his tense face. He moved a little closer and gently pressed his cheekbone and pulled down the corner of his mouth. The awkward expression does not go away.

“Frondier, it was called Frondier.”

She thought of the man she met at the banquet today.

When I first saw him, it seemed like a pitch-black shadow standing alone in a bright space. His clothes, hair, and eyes were like that, and his mood was like that.

Carla had another man to approach today. No, to be precise, there was another man who would make her approach him.

But the moment I saw Frontier, I changed my mind. At first, Frondier’s luxurious appearance and attire made him appear to be from a noble family.

A scion from a prestigious family whose face she does not yet know. This was something that definitely needed to be checked.

However, the closer he approached Frondier with his big heart, the more things did not go as planned. She had an inexplicable feeling about Frontier.

A strange man I see for the first time. A change of heart occurred after only seeing him for 3 seconds.

‘…No way is this.’

Carla has never felt anything like that. Her seducing a man was an extremely calculated act, and it wasn’t a very difficult problem to begin with.

However, nothing could be done for Frontier. The seduction techniques, gestures, and eyes she always uses. Without being able to do anything, I just left.

‘It was like that when we met, but when we left, he disappeared without any regrets. Meeting me probably isn’t the goal.’

Moreover, Frontier doesn’t talk much about himself. The men she has met so far have tried to say one more thing to her, but Frondier keeps moving away as the story comes to an end.

why? Why are you avoiding me? Why did you leave so quickly without even bothering to look at me until I got closer?

‘…No, Carla.’

Curiosity about Frontier is growing. No, it’s not getting bigger, it’s getting worse. Carla looked at her face reflected in the mirror. I looked into my own eyes.

She couldn’t get close to Frontier. I couldn’t act seductively.

If you did that, you would definitely say,

‘You can’t be serious.’

Carla’s eyes change. Gray eyes turn black, vertical lines blooming inside the pupils. Her strength, which she had been trying so hard to hide, slowly leaks out.

Blah, blah.

The mirror she is looking at is slowly hardening from the outside. When the gray color in Carla’s eyes disappeared, her body became gray, as if that much had been transferred to the mirror.

The glass that reflected color also lost its light, and the mirror ceased to perform its role at all.

petrification.

It was only after Carla’s beloved mirror became completely useless that her eyes returned to their original state.

Kala’s powers can be controlled to a certain extent, but when her impulses or emotional turmoil become severe, they leak out without her knowledge.

In this case, you have to unleash your power no matter what the object is. Even if you make simple furniture out of stone, the impulse will not be relieved. This is because even if it is a stone, it can perform its original function.

You can get rid of impulses only by making them unusable. However, it is sufficiently large to satisfy her urge. The most appropriate and cheapest thing was a mirror.

At first, control itself was impossible. I’m still barely able to do it.

A dangerous force that even one cannot control. This is not called ability.

It’s called a curse.

‘I’m going to kill him, Carla.’

Carla bit her lip.

It was the first time I wanted someone. So, this was the first time I learned that those emotions were translated into impulses.

‘Athena… Athena…!!’

Carla clearly recognized the cost of her curse, and her fingertips trembled at the humiliation.
