Academy’s Weapon Replicator Episode 48

Chapter 12 Traitor (2)

As Malia predicted, Frondier sensed that there was a traitor among the teachers.

If you inform any of them, you may be caught by the criminal.

Then you find yourself in an even more dangerous situation.

That’s why I didn’t inform the teacher.

‘Was Frontier this wise?’

I feel safe about this, my son.

Knock –

Then there was a knock on the conference room door.

All the teachers looked at the door.

Who else is here now?

“Excuse me~ Can I come in for a moment~?”

A soft, languid voice.

Ales felt uncomfortable.

“Who are you telling me to come in?”

“Oh, my name is Philly Terstra~”

Phil who?

The professors were all dazed for a moment.

The first person to notice was Malia.

“Open the door! hurry!”

Only then did other teachers realize this.

The teacher who was near the door quickly walked over and opened the door.

“Wow~ I’m sorry for such hospitality~”

Fili bowed his head as he came in.

Fair skin, lively eyes and a warm atmosphere filled the conference room.

“Phi Fili. How could you come all the way to a place like this alone…!”

“It’s so boring. “I came out secretly.”

You came out secretly.

The faces of the people around me became cold.

“Don’t worry too much. “It’s about protecting my own body.”

The statement itself is not bluff.

Fili has sufficient skills of her own, and the knights who always protect her are with her.

But there is simply something called common sense.

“Fili, I’m in trouble. “The president is not here right now, so if you come out like this and get found.”

“It’s okay, it’s okay~ I came because I had proper business.”

That’s not the problem.

While the teachers were sweating, Philly looked around.

And then he spotted Malia and smiled brightly.

“Wow Malia! “It was there as expected.”

“…Fili, how have you been?”

“What are you talking about?”

Fili laughed ahahaha.

Malia was smiling too, but it was extremely awkward.

“Okay, I can’t talk comfortably here. “Let’s talk later.”

Then Fili cleared his throat, hmm.

He looked around and said.

“Everyone knows that my daughter was almost in danger this time, right?”

The warm atmosphere and voice are the same as before.

However, the content was so unusual that tension immediately rose in the conference room.

“of course. That’s why we’re here now…”

“Hmm, I know that well. The teachers at Constel are great. “I believe it.”

Philly is so supportive of teachers.

But for some reason, the teachers began to feel more anxious.

“That’s right.”

Fili’s eyes narrowed.

Those red eyes shone.

“I want to meet Renzo.”

“Empress Hua…!”

“Are you here? “In Constell’s basement.”

Renzo was arrested and imprisoned in Constel.

Ironically, the place where students receive training is much safer than the clumsy detention center.

“Yes, but it is dangerous!”

Ales stopped Fili.

Fili laughed.

“But you don’t know who to trust now, do you?”

“…!”

There is a traitor within Constel.

Fili also noticed this.

“Then wouldn’t it be best for me to talk about it?”

Fili put his hands together.

With an extremely clear expression.

“I’m really curious about what made you want to kidnap my daughter.”

* * *

I forgot about it for a moment because of Renzo.

I was originally taking a practical exam.

After I woke up and came to my senses, I was worried about the results of the practical exam.

I’m sure it won’t be invalidated just because Renzo broke in.

Because there were no actual casualties.

Most students probably didn’t even know there was an intrusion.

If you were holding onto a monster and it suddenly became invalid, there wouldn’t be such a ridiculous situation.

But then, this time, I am the problem.

Because of Renzo, I couldn’t catch any monsters along the way.

So I asked Aten.

“Me and Mr. Frontier are in 16th place.”

“16th place?”

It’s a strange ranking.

It’s not a very high ranking, but it’s not a low ranking either, considering that we couldn’t supply the materials along the way.

“Please eat.”

“Oh, thank you.”

Aten peeled the apple.

…it’s good.

“Oh so how are we in 16th place? “Did you get a bonus for stopping Renzo?”

“No, even if I had gotten that score, there wouldn’t have been much difference in my ranking.”

“huh?”

Aten tilted his head slightly.

Those white eyes blinked briefly as if remembering something.

“That person named Astor Evans.”

“huh?”

“It is said that the boss monster and all nearby monsters have been wiped out.”

“….”

“So, at that point, the top ranking is confirmed and we are said to be the highest ranked among those below. In fact, from 15th place, they were ahead of us by a significant margin.”

“…I see.”

Since I always play the game with Aster, I don’t know how the real Aster will move during the actual game.

Usually, once first place is confirmed, players do not catch any more monsters.

If you eat alone too much, there is a risk that your friendliness with people around you will decrease.

But the real Aster doesn’t care about that.

This time, I survived thanks to it.

“Then.”

“yes.”

“When will I be discharged from the hospital?”

Aten and I are in the hospital room together right now.

I feel like I’m slowly falling in love with this hospital.

“Mr. Frontier was on the verge of death. Hospitalization is natural.”

“You saved them all.”

“Still.”

The restoration of Aten.

I didn’t know it was already possible.

When I heard it, he said he saw his future.

In the end, Philly’s worries became reality.

That reality saved me.

“Are you okay?”

“huh. “I really thought I was going to die.”

Not an exaggeration.

I prepared myself for death.

The dangers of woven dragon hearts were taken too lightly.

…I don’t know if I would have made a different choice even if I knew the risks.

“Don’t do that again.”

“huh?”

“It was by chance that I succeeded in ‘reduction.’ I just managed to do it after glancing at the information for a split second. “I also don’t have the confidence to see the future and I don’t know how.”

Aten, like Fili, is a descendant of Valar.

The blood becomes lighter as generations pass.

Just as Fili is also not a true foresight.

It was entirely by chance that Aten saw his future.

Aten held the skirt above her knees tightly with both hands.

“…I’m not confident I’ll be able to save it next time. So please.”

“don’t worry. “I can’t do it anymore because I’m scared.”

It’s true.

It is a miracle that Aten has succeeded in giving back at this time.

I never want to do something dangerous like this again.

“…You don’t know how scared I was.”

“huh?”

“How scared I was. “I’m afraid I’ll lose you-”

Squeak-

Then the hospital room door opened.

I thought a doctor had come, but a strange man came in.

The man in the suit bowed his head to me politely.

“excuse me. “Are you Mr. Frontier?”

“yes. That’s right.”

“My name is Robert, the detective in charge of investigating this case.”

“A case?”

“About the suspicions and the entire story of the attempted kidnapping of Princess Aten.”

I see, are you listening to the circumstances?

I nodded and Robert brought a chair forward and sat down next to me.

He took out a notebook.

“I heard that Mr. Frontier found Renzo first. Where was he?”

Aten became nervous at Robert’s words.

The fact that I found Renzo in advance and succeeded in responding first is a lie I told you in advance.

If the investigation continues, it may be revealed.

but.

“Mr. Frontier? Where was it?”

I laughed as I watched Robert acting quite slyly.

“…Did you say Mr. Robert?”

“yes.”

“You’re not a detective.”

Unfortunately, I know who Robert is.

The suit really doesn’t suit me.

“…Why would I be doing this if I wasn’t a detective?”

“It must be Mr. Philly’s order.”

Robert’s eyes widened at my words.

I said, pretending to look over Robert’s whole body.

“You can see it from here too. The calluses in your hands are trained muscles that are difficult to hide even with a suit. “He tried very hard to make his gait look natural when he came, but when he bowed his head to me, it became a habit.”

“….”

“You are a knight directly under the imperial family under Mr. Fili. Right?”

I literally said anything.

Calluses, muscles, whatever.

Because we already know that Robert is one of Fili’s knights.

I used appropriate words to explain how I found out.

I can’t say things like I saw it in the game.

“…It’s amazing.”

Robert nodded with honest admiration.

If you know the answer, the solution just needs to sound plausible.

Robert’s expression hardened.

“But you are treating the Empress with a title that is too light. “Please be careful next time.”

“Excuse me.”

this. Did the name Mr. Philly get stuck in my mouth without me even realizing it?

I will have to pay more attention in the future.

“But it wasn’t the Empress’s order. I came to see Mr. Frontier of my own free will. That’s why I wanted to hide my identity. “I apologize.”

Robert bowed his head again.

He is a very polite person.

“it’s okay.”

“It will be easier to talk about it since there is no need to hide it. “I have something I would like to ask Mr. Frontier, who fought with Renzo himself.”

“What is it? “There’s not much I can answer.”

Like how you cut off Renzo’s arm.

Even if you ask me that, I can’t answer.

That’s probably what I’m most curious about.

“Renzo approached you and Aten without anyone noticing. Do you think it was possible for him to do that on his own?”

I thought for a moment.

Renzo’s line of action at that time.

I shook my head.

“It would be impossible.”

Renzo’s hiding skills were excellent.

It came so close that Aten and I didn’t even notice.

But still, I got menosorpho.

In the first place, since Menosorpo is not a magic circle for security purposes, it is difficult to think that Renzo broke through another crime prevention facility alone.

“Then do you think there is an accomplice as well?”

“yes. “Within Constell.”

“…I see.”

Why should I say this?

I know that accomplice, that is, the traitor within Constel.

But that’s not the point.

If you focus on finding the traitor, there is a risk that the investigation will go astray.

“…Mr. Robert is His Majesty Fili’s knight.”

“That’s right.”

“I have something to tell you.”

“What is it?”

“There is one more person.”
