The Academy’s Weapon Replicator

“...!”

The hand with which Frondier aimed the blade. Its tip was trembling. Trembling with anger and sadness.

Frondier looked at Lily with a sad expression. It wasn't an act. Lily believed she had him under her power, but it was the exact opposite.

Even if her power couldn't be sensed by aura or mana,

It couldn't escape Frondier's senses.

“I asked if I should kill you.”

Frondier's voice trembled. His emotions were out of control and showing outwardly.

Frondier, who was always languid and easygoing, whose face would only sink further even when threatened.

He felt such anger that he failed to control his emotions, and

“...Ah.”

Lily faced it.

She desperately drew up her aura. It was an act triggered by fear rather than judgment.

Run away, get out of here, where's the exit? The window is blocked by Frondier. Go out the door, quickly, don't just stand there, hurry, move, move your feet, Ria Lis!

There was no need to listen to Frondier's every word. Her only, albeit slim, chance was to move while he couldn't control his emotions.

The moment Ria Lis made up her mind and put strength into her feet.

She met Frondier's eyes.

“Is that your answer, Ria Lis.”

“... .”

Ria Lis thought.

A human could have such eyes.

...Ah, I need to run away...

“──Huh!”

Ria Lis forced her unmoving feet to move and ran out the door.

It seemed far too late, but fortunately, she managed to escape.

If she just ran down the hallway and went out another window or the front door, she could escape.

She didn't know the extent of Frondier's flight ability, but when it came to flying, Lily was quite confident.

‘...What's that?’

However, while running, Lily spotted something unfamiliar straight ahead.

At first, she thought it was light leaking through a gap in the floor. But the vertically extending light was too artificial to be considered a leak.

However, since this was the only way to escape right now, Lily went a little closer, and

“...Ah.”

After confirming that it was a small pillar of light, she tried to stop urgently, but.

Menosorpo

Void Weaving

Workshop

Net

The pillar of light spread out in an instant, and the rune's territory captured her.

Simultaneously, structures of black walls formed, surrounding Lily.

The workshop, it wasn't just created now.

It had been here from the beginning.

Kwaduk, Kwadudduk!

Kwajijijik!

Kwaaang!!

The workshop appeared in reality, pushing, breaking, and crushing Lily's mansion into its territory.

Originally, Frondier had intended to quietly settle things with Lily, but

There was no reason for him to care about such things now.

“...Ah.”

When she realized it, Lily was already inside Frondier's workshop.

Lily had seen this workshop once before. When it was used to capture the Metamorph's disaster at the Imperial Palace.

Lily was trapped in almost the same way.

“...Hoo... .”

Lily felt cold sweat dripping as she looked around.

She had heard the sound of her mansion being smashed, but once the workshop was complete, no sound could be heard.

Complete silence, stillness.

Lily's sweat dripped down her chin, falling to the ground.

Plop-

The silence was so deep that even the sound of it hitting the ground could be heard.

‘It's not just a lack of light, there's no light at all.’

Even with the eyes of a devil, she couldn't see the inside of this room at all. An airtightness impossible in reality.

If this workshop was created by Frondier, she was already completely captured within his domain.

Like a fish swallowed by a whale, waiting to be dissolved by stomach acid.

“...Will-o'-the-wisp.”

Lily used a simple light magic spell and was finally able to see her surroundings.

“...An armory...? No, a collection...?”

Sparkling weapons surrounded her. Each one was extraordinary, and the scale itself was immense.

A procession of weapons that stretched endlessly, even on this single floor.

“Fr, Frondier. Calm down. This is a slight misunderstanding.”

Thump.

As she said that and tried to take a step forward.

Shishishishik!!

The displayed weapons flew towards Lily, rushing at her.

“Ah, ugh.”

Before Lily could even scream, the weapons placed their blades against her neck, shoulders, waist, everywhere.

If she moved even slightly here, some part of Lily's body would disappear. She couldn't move any part, not even her fingertips.

‘...Right, I was arrogant.’

Lily believed that Frondier wouldn't harm her.

While believing so, she used the devil's power to draw him to her.

“...Fr, Frondier.”

Lily barely managed to speak with her body completely unable to move.

“I'm sorry. I was presumptuous.”

Lily said this time truly, sincerely.

But that 'sincerity' had the exact same tone as the 'sincere voice' from before, which made Lily uneasy.

‘...No, but if I talk to him again, surely...’

Lily thought so and waited for Frondier.

...One minute passed, five minutes passed,

When fifteen minutes had passed.

“...No way.”

Lily still couldn't move a single finger.

“He doesn't intend to come?”

That possibility reared its head, and her body flinched at the fear that seeped into her spine.

“Ugh!”

And precisely as much as she moved, her body was cut by the blades, and blood dripped down.

But the fear didn't stop, and her gradually trembling body injured her, and her body reacting to the pain caused further injury.

In that repetition, repetition, repeating, even as her eyes slowly trembled.

Lily waited for a door that didn't exist anywhere in the workshop to open, but.

──Frondier still didn't come.
