Academy’s Weapon Replicator Episode 78 Chapter
23
The night when Frondier made the bombshell announcement.
Ampere called Azier to his room.
A quiet room with only one small light on. Ampere asked Azier.
“Aji, what do you think?”
“Your will is my will.”
Ampere smiled at Azier’s answer but shook his head.
“I thought you would say that. “Since you were very young, you have faithfully followed my words without ever rebelling.”
Ajie’s past achievements were not enough to simply describe him as a model student or an honor student.
The expectations of the family, including Ampere, and the attention and pressure at Constel. I overcame it all.
Clearly, the standard the world wanted from him was a position that was too high for an ordinary person.
However, Ajie climbed up without any problems. As if it had to be that way.
Since he didn’t show any signs of hardship until he came here, Ampere is a proud son, but he is also worried. Steel that is too hard can easily break.
“But Azieh. Anyone who has seen Frontier up close will have something to think about. That’s why I stayed silent even in the restaurant.”
When Frontier said he was going to Tavern.
That statement was even more dangerous than what Frontier suddenly said during the meeting.
However, at the time of the meeting, Atjie, who had restrained Frondier, remained silent when he said he was going to Tavern.
“Ajie, I am still unfamiliar with the changes in Frontier. “It means that he was not good enough in his role as a father.”
Surprisingly, Ampere told his tribe. It was the lowest attitude he could give his son.
“I need wisdom now. What are your thoughts? Do you think it would be okay for Frontier to go to Tavern?”
Atjie closed his eyes for a moment. Even though my father said this, I couldn’t let him go.
And Agier also felt the need to tell Ampere a few things about Frondier.
“At least,”
Ajie seemed to be choosing which words were most appropriate, then added,
“I won’t come back dead.”
In the end, he muttered his own words.
“Do you really think so?”
Ampere was suspicious and asked again. That’s how dangerous Tavern was. A place where you literally have to worry about life or death.
“The current Frontier is different from the one from last year.”
Atzier is the person who has seen Frondier’s growth rate up close.
Of course, even he doesn’t know all of Frondier’s skills, but he personally taught him close combat.
It seemed like he would quit after three days, or even a day, but Frondier stubbornly followed his teachings.
From what I’ve seen so far, Frontier is the type that moves while thinking. The type that sets traps in advance and uses psychological warfare to narrow the gap with the enemy.
That was definitely a completely different personality from Ajie, who deals with all situations with the basics.
Therefore, even though it may seem like a trick, it has a clear effect. The same goes for this final exam. He changed the situation to his advantage through hidden numbers and information superiority tricks and did not miss the opportunity.
Perhaps because of its habit of setting so many traps, Frontier starts with what it thinks is possible.
I guess I’ve gathered together tools that can be used to wage psychological warfare. That must have been the reason why I asked Ajie to show me a demonstration of ‘falling out.’
That was the part that Ajie was convinced of in his own way.
The reason Frontier has been so lazy and has done nothing so far is because he considers most things ‘impossible’.
However, for some reason I thought again that it was possible. The result is what is now Frontier.
“Frondier is not about being brave.”
“Is there something to be gained by going there? “Does Frontier believe that?”
“If we were just believing, Frontier wouldn’t have tried it. Frontier knows. That you will get something from it.”
In Ajie’s view, Frontier has been living stubbornly since one day. Like I really became a different person.
The fact that he said he was going to Tavern was surprising even to Azier, but he didn’t think that Frontier, who had lived such a stubborn life, would suddenly make a foolish decision.
“Unless there is excommunication, Frondier will live on with the name of House Roach.”
If the original plan was to expel Frondier by excommunication and send him to a safe place, Frondier would eventually end up following the same path as Ampere and Azier unless he was excommunicated.
“If you’re going to see the hell out of it someday, it wouldn’t be a bad idea to see it in advance.”

I was worried.
Who should I tell that I’m going to Tavern?
First, let’s talk to Aten, who helped me a lot, and he might come after me to Tayvon. No matter what, will they come after Tavern? Just in case, should I tell Aster or Cybel first? But do I really need to say anything? I’m not going to die.
I thought about things like that, but there was no point.
“I heard you were going to Tavern.”
This is what Aten said as soon as I entered the classroom.
It wasn’t just Aten. As soon as I entered the classroom, the students looked at me and started whispering. At first glance, I heard the word ‘Tavern’.
How do students know all this? As I thought about that, Elodie came to mind.
That bastard spread this story to the whole school!
“Oh yeah. “I was going to tell you, but rumors spread faster than I could.”
I don’t know what Elodie was thinking, but there was no point in denying it once it had spread to this extent.
Aten looked at me as if he were looking at someone who was about to die.
“Why would you throw away your life so easily?”
It was really like seeing someone who was going to die soon.
“Who dies? “I will come back just fine.”
“Then why is Tavern…?”
hmm. It would definitely be a question.
To me, Tavern is a high-risk, high-return place, but to other people, it’s just a high-risk place with no return. It’s also an incredibly high risk. There was also a guy called Die-risk.
“I have something to bring.”
After much thought, I answered. I don’t want to lie to Aten, but even if I explain everything, he won’t understand.
I guess it’s half the truth. Aten blinked at my words and seemed to be thinking about something.
“okay. “I have something to bring…”
As he recited it like that, it seemed like he was saying something very extraordinary.
“Aten. “I’m just asking just in case. You’re not going to follow me, are you?”
“It can’t be. “I am also a woman who knows things.”
…Um, okay.
I thought that if I asked more, I would get worse results, so I nodded.
* * *
-…Going to a tavern? What about Frontier?
After hearing Aten’s words, her older sister, Saleh, asked back on the other end of the phone.
As far as Aten remembers, it was a rare occurrence for Saleh to ask a question out of surprise.
“huh. “I heard there’s something to bring.”
-I have something to bring…
Saleh muttered similarly to Aten.
-So, what do you mean you left it at the Tavern?
“i think so too.”
-So Frontier has been to Tavern before?
“If I were to interpret the words literally, it would be like that.”
Saleh and Aten had the same thoughts.
Tavern is hell to those who have been there, and a land of fear and unknown to those who have not been there.
Death row prisoners and criminal soldiers to be used as meat shields. And it is a place where there are monsters that invade all the time.
What can you bring to a region where no one knows anything else?
There is no explanation other than that I have been to Tavern before.
In other words, Frontier ‘left something’ at Tavern and is going to get it back this vacation.
‘To say that Tavern is dangerous is an understatement. Why would I go to a place like that again?’
I don’t know what it is, but it certainly looks like it will bring something huge.
From what Aten saw, Frontier was strong enough for a student, but there was nothing important about it.
-But Aten.
“huh.”
-Why are you telling me that? You don’t really think I’m going to help that Frontier, do you?
All Saleh knows about Frondier is that his mother, Fili, sent Aten to dig up information about Dragon Heart.
In other words, it is South-South.
Saleh does not know that the person who stopped Elysia was Frondier. If I found out, the evaluation of Frontier would fall into the abyss.
“What are you talking about, sister? “It’s just part of small talk.”
-…Do you know that you are becoming more and more like your mother?
“So this is a completely different story.”
Elysia didn’t even listen and continued talking.
“I have a place I want to go on vacation.”
-…hey. you. Stop for a moment.
“It is said that Constell’s vacation is aimed at improving students’ individual skills. So, I’m going to travel a bit to improve my skills. “It’s not strange at all, is it?”
-hey! it’s crazy? You know where it is! Do you think I will allow it?
“What are you talking about? I haven’t even told you where I’m going to travel yet. Of course, I may behave well in my own way, but don’t you know what will happen in the world? It might be a much more difficult journey than I thought? Oh, don’t worry though. I hope something special happens. “At most, I can only go for ‘a month.’”
Aten’s shamelessness reached its peak.
A deep sigh was heard on the other end of the phone.
– I was wondering why they were saying this to me and not to their mother.
“What are you talking about, sister? “You can chat with anyone, whether it’s your mom or your sister.”
-okay. No matter where you go, we will help you prepare everything so that you have a pleasant trip. Also provide an escort. But remember that escorting is also about keeping an eye on you. If you do anything even remotely dangerous, or even step into danger, I will have the guards catch you and imprison you in the imperial palace.
“thank you. “I didn’t ask for it.”
It wasn’t a request.
That kind of thing is called a threat, Aten.
-So this is a completely different story.
Saleh followed Aten’s words.
-Do you like Frontier?
“….”
Aten stopped speaking at Saleh’s question. But because I’m embarrassed? When Saleh was imagining Aten’s bright red face,
he said, “I don’t know.”
Aten gave an answer that seemed a bit unexpected, but also very like her.
-Not sure?
“huh. “I don’t even know what that is.”
hmm. but.
Although she tries to act like an older sister in front of Aten, Saleh is actually still young. This is especially true since most of the time I was confined inside the imperial palace.
-Maybe I’ll find out this time?
“Maybe so.”
Aten answered without thinking.
And after about 3 seconds, he spoke again.
“What do you mean? “I just go on a trip during vacation.”
-yes. That’s right.
Afterwards, Aten tried to ignore Saleh’s half-teasing remarks and ended the call.
White eyes blinked between pure white and cold expressions.
“hmm. “I am also a woman who knows things.”
When you say follow, who does it mean to follow?
I just go on a trip during vacation.
Everything that happened after that was just a coincidence.
