The Academy’s Weapon Replicator

Chapter 284 (1) - The Academys Weapon Replicator

Frondier's words left everyone momentarily speechless.

His body was near exhaustion due to mana depletion, his face pale, both arms broken, and blood flowing all over his body.

They hesitated, unsure whether to object or get angry.

"Stay still."

Someone flew to Frondier's side in an instant and embraced him from behind.

"Please stay still."

She, who had flown in like a white bird, seemed to stain herself with his color as she spread over Frondier.

"... Aten."

"What happened to you?"

"... This is, could it be..."

"It's not perfect yet."

Although Aten said so, Frondier felt his body slowly healing. The pain subsided, and the weight of his heavy body gradually lessened.

"Is it 'Reversion' magic?"

"It's just simple healing. I mixed in the principles of Reversion, but..."

Previously, Aten had saved Frondier, who was dying from the side effects of consuming the Dragon Heart, with her magic, Reversion.

However, that was just Aten imitating the future she had seen for a brief moment. The future her could do it, but it was still too much for her current self.

It was a method close to a miracle, born from chance upon chance, so Aten couldn't use it freely yet.

'In the game, Aten was only able to use Reversion after becoming a pro. Originally, her specialty was ice magic.'

The Manggot's attack also happened much later in the game. Here, various events overlapped, causing the Manggot's attack to be moved up. As much as the Empire and Constel were less prepared, the Manggot was also hasty in their actions.

'... But something's strange.'

Aten was hugging Frondier from behind, supposedly to heal him, but when he thought about it, it was a bit strange.

Last time, when she used Reversion, she seemed to have just touched him with her hand.

Besides, this time it wasn't even Reversion, but just healing.

"Do you really have to hug me like this to heal?"

"No."

"..."

"But please stay still."

Aten held Frondier tightly as he silently tried to escape. Sensing a strange will and strength, Frondier stayed still.

"... Does it work better this way?"

Frondier asked once more, just in case.

"No."

Of course, Aten did not meet his expectations.

"But please stay still."

"... You still don't communicate well."

While the two of them were having a bland conversation...

"Frondier."

Aster stood next to Frondier. He spoke to Frondier while looking straight ahead.

"I brought everyone."

"Thank you."

Frondier raised his hand and placed it on Aster's shoulder.

"Then I'll leave the instructions to you."

Aster seemed to ponder for a moment at Frondier's words before asking.

"... Shouldn't you be the one to do it?"

"There you go again."

Frondier tilted his head past Aster.

People lined up next to them, one by one. Frondier looked at each of them and said,

"You brought them all here."

"You made me bring them."

"No."

Frondier shook his head.

"I never said that. You did it on your own, with your own will."

In fact, Frondier had never asked for all of them to be brought here.

The only thing Frondier had asked for was one thing.

To become the leader. That was all.

"... You coward."

Aster gave a light rebuke and drew his sword. Excalibur Beta. Frondier briefly observed its splendid appearance.

"You brought it."

"You made me bring this. Don't even try to argue."

"That's true."

Huhu, Frondier laughed. He had personally gone to the Sacred Forest to get Aster that sword. He couldn't deny that.

"... Aster, give the instructions."

Frondier looked straight ahead.

Even though Elodie's magic had devastated the surroundings, the army of corpses was still numerous. They slowly filled the void Elodie had created and approached them.

Chak!

Aster's sword soared high into the sky. The radiance of Excalibur shone brightly, illuminating the area.

"Constel!"

Aster shouted. Frondier thought to himself that it was a very appropriate designation. As expected, Aster had the qualities of a leader.

As if they had been waiting for that shout, the people who had lined up around them waited for instructions with excited expressions, their weapons and magic fully charged.

"We will end this war!!"

With that, the clash of forces began. The students exerted their individual powers to eliminate the hordes before them.

The most noticeable were, of course, the three who had grown significantly in this war: Aster, Sybil, and Elodie. Selena, although not flashy, was quietly taking the lives of enemies, her speed comparable to the three in front, even if it wasn't visible.

Mei also used the materials she had learned to defeat the enemies. It was almost like an experiment to try out what she had learned.

"Hmm, in this case, I have no choice but to target that devil."

Osprey's head turned towards the sky.

Belphegor, who was calmly looking down at the battlefield from the sky. Despite the unfavorable situation, his gaze remained cold. His eyes met Osprey's, and he cast down a haughty look as if to say, "Come if you dare."

"Headmaster!!"

However, at that moment, Frondier's voice interrupted their exchange of glances.

Frondier looked at Osprey and moved only his lips without making a sound.

'Come here.'

That simple request was easy enough to read even without sound, so Osprey flew slowly towards him with a single leap.

Osprey waved his arm, casting the soundproof magic 'Wind Whisper' around them.

"What is it?"

"You must not approach Belphegor. It's his intention to lure you in, Headmaster."

Frondier spoke in a low voice.

"Belphegor can use the power of the Seven Deadly Sins. He inflicts powerful mental attacks regardless of the opponent's resistance."

"... Is he, by any chance, directly bestowing 'Sloth'?"

Osprey's guess was correct. Frondier nodded.

"Headmaster, please go to Manggot."

"Inside Manggot?"

"Yes. Somewhere inside, the believers are trying to summon their God."

Another countdown in this war.

Manggot was trying to summon their God, and that moment was not far off.

"That power has now swelled to the point where stopping it carelessly will cause it to explode immediately."

"... I must control it."

"Yes. Only you can do it, Headmaster."
