Academy’s Weapon Replicator Episode 39

Chapter 10 The Empress’s Eyes (5)

I remember Aten Terst from the game Etius.

When she first met Aster, Aten always looked at Aster with those eyes.

However, as the game progresses and the main quest and story progress, Aten comes to recognize Aster.

Sometimes, it even develops into a romantic relationship.

So, I knew Aten to be a cold character from the beginning.

“Have you ever met Aten Aster?”

“no. “I just met you for the first time.”

Even after breaking up with Aster, Aten’s expression was not good.

It must be true that we met for the first time.

I, too, have never experienced a situation where Aster encountered Aten before he transferred to the school.

‘Aten’s cold gaze that I saw when playing as Aster wasn’t a personality trait, but there was a reason for it.’

From Frontier’s point of view, Aten does not have such a cold personality.

…It’s just that the conversation is a bit difficult.

In other words, the reason I misunderstood that Aten had a cold personality was because I played from the perspective of ‘Aster’, and that was not the case in the first place.

There is something between Aten and Aster that I don’t know about.

“Where are we going now? “I think I’m done shopping.”

Aten, who was following behind, asked.

Even if it’s just shopping, there’s nothing special about it.

I just bought a writing utensil to take notes for the midterm exam.

I answered.

“I’m going home, will you follow me there?”

“No way. “I am also a woman who knows things.”

No, I don’t know about you.

Just because you don’t cross the last line doesn’t mean you’re keeping the standard.

“Then let’s part ways here.”

“Of course. Then again tomorrow.”

Aten said that and bowed.

Again tomorrow.

What is that?

It’s a normal greeting, right?

You’re not saying we’ll repeat this same thing tomorrow, right?

* * *

As soon as I returned to the mansion, I met Ajie.

Because it was a training day.

During the training, I asked Atjie to demonstrate the ‘falling pole’.

Coincidentally, I also received something from Elodie.

But Ajie shook his head.

“Can not be done.”

“…Why?”

“If you do it now, you will only hurt yourself.”

Atzie was adamant.

Well, when has there ever been a time when that hasn’t happened?

“And above all, the proper effect can be enjoyed only when the Nakjang is used as a ‘spear’. “This is because it takes advantage of the flexibility and length of the spear pole.”

“Oh, I see.”

Atjie spoke as if piercing my insides.

“If you want to at least imitate Nakjang with a dagger, build your body before that. “It hasn’t been long since I started training.”

“yes.”

I gave up my lingering desire to learn Nakjang and took a stance.

Training with Atjie is a great help.

When it comes to muscle training, I imitate as much as I can from the side, and when it comes to combat, I mainly spar while pointing out problems and loopholes in my movements.

This simple repetition was rapidly increasing my experience level.

Nakjang is not actually taught, but is often shown during sparring with me.

If you can steal something while looking at it, steal it.

Thanks to this, even though I couldn’t use Nakjang, the response to Nakjang was increasing.

Like when fighting a golem, the main way to deal with it is to let go of the weapon first.

‘wait.’

…Golem?

‘oh.’

What should I do?

I ended up thinking about how to learn Nakjang.

But for now let’s focus on training.

As Ajie said, if I try to hit the target with my body right now, I will get hurt.

Moreover, if you try to use a dagger rather than a spear, the burden will become even more severe.

…Is it possible?

“That brother.”

“what?”

“Aren’t you trusting my skills?”

“Are you saying it’s a horse?”

Oh, too?

“You are a rookie who has just started training. I wasted my time due to laziness and started out lagging behind others. “By the time you satisfy my eyes, you will have graduated.”

“…I received an order from my father to rank in the top 10 within a year.”

“That’s a different story. Even if the first-year bastards from Constell get first place there, they won’t get my attention.”

The current first-year freshman is Aster Evans.

Even the current Aster doesn’t seem to be able to reach out to Azieh yet.

“…That brother.”

“There’s a lot of talk today.”

“Do I have a talent for fighting?”

This is my recent concern.

In the previous world, we saw this world as a character named Aster, who was full of talent.

Aster’s colleagues were characters who had already distinguished themselves in Constell.

I know at hand what position they will play and how they will fight.

However, I can’t get my bearings on a character I don’t know at all, like Frontier.

What I choose to fight with weaving.

Focused on throwing and dagger skills.

Replicating legendary weapons such as Gram and Chrysellakatos.

Is it right to move forward like this?

Is Frontier’s body truly suitable for ‘battle’? Do you have talent?

In Etius, which already provides only a sliver of information, this situation feels like breaking through the fog.

Me and this body of Frontier.

Will I be able to continue walking down this path and get through it?

Atjie looked at me for a moment and then said:

“Frondier aptitude and talent are based on results. We don’t mention talent to failures. “Only successful people, only strong people, have their talents recognized.”

It was rare for Ajie to speak at length.

Does what I say mean something to you?

“Until now, when explaining how someone’s achievements are possible, people have dismissed everything as ‘talent’ unless it can be explained with ‘effort.’ “There must have been much more to his achievements.”

──It’s as if I’m talking about my father, Ampere.

Ampere has never once allowed the invasion of monsters since becoming a lord.

The modifier attached to it is the iron wall of the north.

Ajie, who has watched his life, must have his own sentiments.

Apart from that, Ajie’s words were correct.

Talent and aptitude are words given to successful people. The world we live in is one

in which many people who believed they had talent when they were young fail, and

someone who had no merit succeeds.

And once a person becomes successful, he or she suddenly becomes possessed of talent.

I didn’t have that talent until I became successful.

After becoming successful, humans are treated as if they had such talent from the beginning.

“But Frontier. “I assure you.”

At that time, Ajie’s emotionless eyes looked at me.

“There is no way you lack the talent for combat.”

“yes?”

I don’t know what you’re thinking.

I can’t feel any intention.

With those eyes, Atjie seems to be conveying the truth.

“Because you are my younger brother.”

* * *

“Golem’s data?”

“yes. “Is there any left?”

The next day, I visited teacher Vinkiss after school.

Vinkis, the original owner of the golem used by Edwin.

She looked at me and tilted her head.

“I have some left over, but what should I use them for?”

“Can I record a technology demonstration or something?”

“recording? “Oh, you have a Weezergram?”

…How did know.

Was Weezergram originally a famous item?

It’s an item you’ve never heard of when playing a game.

“Then there’s no need to record it. I’ll send the data. Then you will be able to see it with Wizzergram.”

Oh, it’s convenient.

I took out the Whizzergram.

“Oh, I have some good ones.”

“is it so?”

“Look at the mark on the bottom. There is only one magic goods company that uses the ‘Eagle’ mark. And the company boasts of the highest quality in all its craftsmanship.”

As Vinkis said, the underside of the Whizzergram had an eagle pattern engraved on it.

Indeed, this eagle is the symbol of ‘Hitchcock’.

Even if you don’t know about Weezergram, you know about Hitchcock.

“so? “What technology would you like to see?”

“It’s a fall.”

“You guy. “Do you have a big dream?”

Vinkiss smiled and sent the data.

Okay, you can view this at any time with Wizzergram.

As Ajie said, your body is not ready yet, so don’t try to follow it and just watch it first.

The first thing to do is learn it by sight.

“thank you sir.”

“Yeah, it’s no big deal. But you know, Frontier.”

“yes.”

“How long is he going to be like that?”

I turned around at Vinkis’ words.

Aten was standing behind me like ice.

Aten accompanied me today without any hesitation.

And I ran away hard.

It was of little use.

Aten should not be with me, but with Aster.

It’s Aster’s important force, so why are you following me around?

However, when I meet Aster and try to talk to her, she turns into the snow girl I knew from the game, so conversation is not possible.

So our relationship might seem quite strange to passing students.

The imperial princess is chasing me, who has the worst reputation.

The rumor spread within a day.

Anyway, when Aten was pointed out, he blinked his big eyes a few times and opened his mouth.

“──Oh, me?”

“thank god. You’re alive. “You were so still that I thought you were a doll.”

Teacher Binkis joked.

“I heard there are a lot of rumors these days? The princess of the empire is following Frontier around? What? “Did you seduce the princess in just one day?”

“no. “I don’t know why either.”

Of course I answered that way, but Aten raised his eyes upward as if he was thinking about something.

And he said something scary.

“You seduced me… I would like to do that if possible.”

“…uh what?”

As expected, this time, Teacher Binkiss is also embarrassed.

“If possible, I hope Mr. Frontier will seduce me.”

“Teacher! ” Thank you for the data! “I’ll go!”

I dragged Aten outside.

While seeing me off, I tried to ignore Vinkis’s dumbfounded face.

“Where are you going, Frontier?”

“Going to the library, library!”

“Why?”

“After all, midterm exams are coming soon. Are you okay?”

Actually, I think Aten is more worried than me.

The exam is right around the corner, but I suddenly transferred schools.

Aten said, elegantly placing his hand on his collarbone.

“it’s okay. “Because wealth is not determined by grades.”

“Are you saying it’s not okay at all?”

And don’t say anything dangerous.

It’s like buying a test tube with money.

‘Even though Aten looks like this, he was a hard worker when it came to studying.’

Although Aten has a cold appearance and an intellectual aura, his intelligence is actually average.

Originally, when I transferred here, I devoted myself to studying while my relationship with Aster was not good, and I barely passed the midterm exam.

He can’t even study because he’s chasing me around.

It seems like there is no interest at all.

‘Oh shit.’

Why do I have to do this?

“Follow me. “I’ll teach you how to study.”

If Aten’s grades drop, I’ll be in trouble.

If you fail the written exam on the midterm, you must retake the written exam after the practical exam.

There is an event that occurs during the retest period, and Aten is absolutely necessary here.

Aten widened his eyes for a moment as if he was surprised by what I said.

And said.

“I was still following you around.”

“I know!”
