The Academy’s Weapon Replicator - Chapter 418

Chapter 120 Machia (6)

Trees create an environment simply by increasing their numbers.

They come together to become a forest, the empty spaces become roads and open spaces, and the wind passes through the gaps between them, creating an ecosystem by drawing animals, plants, and monsters.

There is always a tree standing next to God. There are quite a few trees that symbolize them or their weapons.

So I feel like the forest surrounding me is much more threatening than the fake hell Bael created.

“oh my god.”

And in front of my eyes, no, I looked a little closer.

“You’re really dragging me here.”

A woman I had never seen before was sitting on a tree branch with startled eyes.

The woman’s eyes were blue, and her hair was black in contrast.

The black hair was similar to the color of the Roach family like mine, but in the light, the hair turned red.

Blue eyes remind me of Elodie, but while Elodie’s eyes were deep and calm like a lake, the woman’s eyes shined like jewels. Eyes that do not suit humans.

The outfit was very crude. Would you say it is covered with a white cloth and fastened with armor on top? The armor covering her shoulders, chest, and waist that she was wearing seemed like divine armor, but she couldn’t feel anything about the cloth covering her entire body.

“Are you Athena?”

The woman was even more surprised by my question and covered her mouth with her hand.

“oh my god. “You’re speaking informally to me.”

“Sorry. “I tend to want to become friends with everyone in the world.”

“It’s actually fun to be this shameless and rude.”

After speaking, Athena came down from the tree.

As if on cue, something flew out of the forest and landed on her shoulder.

‘Owl…’

It is said that the owl is a symbol of Athena. What abilities does that animal have?

I want to put it in the workshop, but unfortunately I can’t because it’s a living creature.

…Am I being too inhumane?

“So, what are you?”

Athena asked.

“It deals with the power of the devil on a human subject, and also predicts pantemonium. “And you know who I am and still act arrogant.”

I tilted my head at those words.

“Don’t you know who I am?”

“You don’t know who it is. Are you that amazing? “On human subjects.”

Athena asked back with a puzzled expression.

But it’s strange from my point of view.

‘The gods cannot see multiple places in the human world at the same time, but they can see anywhere. That’s why he can bestow divine power on anyone he wants.’

In fact, Baldur, Hephaestus, and Rudra are gods who appear in completely different myths, but they all granted divine powers to humans on the Palind continent.

Even if Poseidon were stranded in the sea and couldn’t get any information, it wouldn’t be Athena. Movement between continents would be no problem for God.

But no information about me has arrived.

‘Am I overestimating myself?’

Well, what’s so great about duplicating Artemis’ weapon, Hestia showing off her brazier, defeating Belphegor, and Odin possessing the princess to chase me away? From the gods’ point of view, it might not be a big deal.

Anyway, it’s a good thing from my perspective.

“Does it matter who I am? Just keep the business brief.”

Since you say you don’t know, I hope you continue to do so.

“Business?”

“Get away from Carla.”

Athena sighs as if she is shocked by my words.

I kept talking.

“I’m thinking of using the collar, but it’ll be a hassle if you’re there.”

“…Are you telling me to leave because it’s annoying?”

“okay. If you order a product and don’t like the free gift that comes with it, ask them to remove it. “You understand, right?”

When I said that far.

It

sounded like a door opening.

Coo!

The sky closed instead of the gap in the door, and the once green forest was suddenly covered in black.

Along with that, on the tree branches, countless birds, nocturnal birds that I had not seen before, looked at me with circular, emotionless eyes. Gazes pouring in from the darkness and strange cries.

“The sky gets brighter and darker. “It’s amazing.”

Actually, it’s not that surprising. It may not even be the real world.

Phew!

A root came out from under the ground and pierced my abdomen.

A speed that easily surpasses the perception of a swordsman using Aura, and cannot be avoided or blocked. Overwhelming pain and blood flowing from the abdomen.

…This, too, is not surprising.

“He is a man who cannot distinguish between courage and ignorance. “I get a proper education here.”

Kwasik!

I grabbed the root with my hand and pulled it out of my abdomen.

Originally, blood should have flowed freely, but the punctured hole healed quickly, leaving only a trace of blood.

‘Bael and this guy are the same. Is this really an effective attack?’

Bael also cut off my hand with a guillotine or something, and Athena had a similar idea.

If I had met Athena in real life, I would have been much more nervous than I am now.

If a tree root this size had pierced my abdomen at a speed I couldn’t even see, I would have shed tears of despair, not to mention the pain. Because I don’t know how to win.

Athena asked in surprise.

“Hmm, how is it possible for humans to ‘contemplate’ instantly?”

“Do we really need that term for something like this?”

Whether it’s enduring pain or repairing the body.

To me, pantemonium is a fight over how clearly each person’s soul can survive. In the end, it is a battle of mental strength. So Bael was probably trying to scare me.

It would make sense if Athena was trying to subdue me by causing me pain.

“Let me show it just a little bit.”

Until a little while ago, I thought it was a good thing that Athena didn’t know me.

Only by belittling things like this can the conversation proceed.

So just a little bit.

At least make sure it doesn’t end in a fight where you don’t get anything.

‘Bael also created lava and ghosts. Athena created birds and changed day and night.’

In other words, although there was an image representing the power of their soul, it was also possible to control it in its own way.

It’s still immature for me. Even when dealing with Bael, I just gave it all away.

“I don’t think I can make anything with my demonic powers.”

I raised my hand as I spoke. Just like he did with Bael, he shapes the gun and points it at Athena.

“Maybe we can narrow the scope.”

“…What on earth are you talking about!”

hook!

Right after.

There was a hole in Athena’s left shoulder.

It made almost no sound, and it became a dull scene, like a candle that had gone out.

God’s shoulder had a hole in it.

“?!”

Athena was surprised and touched her shoulder. There will probably be no pain. Not only is there pain, but it doesn’t make sense for something to ‘exist’.

“Uh, how can I, this…!”

Athena seemed surprised by what she could not dodge, what she could not block, the lack of pain, etc.

But I think what she’s most surprised about right now is.

“what’s the matter?”

I asked to be sure.

“Can’t it be restored?”

“…!”

Just as I uprooted the tree and removed the scar on my stomach, Athena may be attempting something similar.

But it doesn’t seem to be easy.

“Well, since it wasn’t physically pierced, the method might be a little difficult.”

Probably not impossible. Even though my abilities are a bit special, this is a battle of the mind. A stronger spirit can somehow restore it.

However, the way you think must be a little different.

“Try what I believe is not fake.”

“Dae, what on earth are you talking about!”

Athena shouted angrily, as if she thought I was teasing her. But I don’t know any easier way to explain it.

‘Bael, the king of hell. Athena in Greek mythology…’

Even Bael, who was the leader among the 72 demons, had an overwhelming advantage in this fight.

Athena is a very famous god in Greece, but the god does not necessarily exist above the devil. The Seven Sins of Belphegor seem to already surpass most gods.

When considering fame and influence, it is difficult to judge which of Bael and Athena is greater.

Hmm, that’s really difficult.

“You can judge now.”

This time, I opened my hand and lowered it from top to bottom toward Athena.

fault!

It was obvious what that meant, so Athena quickly dodged to the left.

and.

“…her…!”

The world to the right of Athena was pitch black.

It was as if forests, birds, and night had never existed from the beginning.

“Hmm, but the world without the other person flies by. “I was wondering what would happen if the world I avoided was blown away.”

“you you…!”

Athena called me with a devastated expression.

As if he couldn’t believe what he saw.

But honestly, I’m not impressed. There is no sense that you are doing something great.

‘It’s fake anyway.’

What’s so great about eliminating a fake world? No matter how much content it contains, a game disappears when you put it in the trash.

I saw Athena. I guess I feel like having a conversation now.

“Athena, the reason you turned this world into night was to scare me.”

“…!”

The remaining forest that has not been erased makes a loud noise. The birds fly away and leave Athena’s side. The trees cried with the sound of the wind, and I walked among them.

“That’s a good idea. Because darkness causes fear in humans. “It’s especially scary in the forest.”

“…Ugh!”

Athena stretched out both hands. A spear and a shield were held in each of her hands. He’s armed. Indeed, the closer Athena gets to being a god, the more powerful she will become here. That’s the right idea.

“So you know it well, so there’s no need to be scared. “The night you created, the darkness I created, etc. will be so different.”

Hiss—

whoosh!

The Spear of Athena flew towards me and landed in my shoulder. Are you trying to take revenge for the hole in your shoulder?

Even though she threw the spear at me, Athena was still holding it.

I guess I don’t have any intention of talking yet. This person is talking hard.

Push!

I pulled out the spear and threw it away.

“But honestly, I don’t like it.”

As I said that, I looked at the world I had erased.

It’s pitch black. Darkness without even a single speck. No matter how much I want to express it differently, it is just pitch black.

“Why was the world erased, but does ‘black’ remain?”

“…?”

“If you really erase it, shouldn’t there even be ‘pure black stuff’? Everything in black and white shouldn’t exist. It’s a bit disappointing. this.”

Athena’s expression distorted as if she was seeing something strange at my words. He blinked as if he had lost his will to fight, and the power of the spear and shield he held in both hands disappeared.

Oh, has my heart finally connected? My sincerity in wanting to talk began to pay off.

“In the end, is my strength the same?”

I sighed.

“Although he is acting proud like an eraser that turns everyone else into fakes.”

I shrugged to look more human. He also smiled.

“It means that even erasing it is fake.”

“….”

At my words, Athena put down both hands. After all, God understands my heart.

“Look, even if you do it this way.”

Suddenly—

this time, I erased everything except Athena and the tree behind her.

“Even if it seems like it has been erased, the darkness remains. “I must have not erased it properly.”

I was trying hard to convince myself that there was no need to be afraid.

OK.

Athena

slowly tapped her back against the tree trunk behind her.

I flopped

down.
