Academy’s Weapon Replicator

Chapter 3 Destiny Manipulation (2)

after class.

In the campus cafe, Frontier, Cybel, and Aster were sitting together.

Cybel was sitting at the round table, rolling her eyes and looking at each other alternately.

In front of her sits one of the most reputable and bad boys in first grade.

Aster Evans has a strong reputation with both teachers and students.

Frontier de Roach, who sleeps all the time in class, is lazy and has no power or talent.

Even just the two of them together attracts attention in the cafe, and Cybel looks at her for nothing.

The reason for the attention was also due to Cybel being stuck here, but she couldn’t trace it up to that point.

“Aster, why did you name me?”

Frontier’s languid lips opened.

The question was something that Cybel was also curious about, so naturally her gaze shifted to Aster.

However, Aster rather widened his eyes as if the question was unexpected.

“Why, you helped me.”

“I?”

“Mystyltain. It took my worries away.”

“… … It was something I was worried about would disappear someday.”

Frontier sighs.

“Oh, I heard that too.”

Cybel said with a twinkle in her eyes.

Frontier’s actions at the nobility council were a very famous event.

The so-called human sloth Frontier’s end-of-word incident.

An absurd act performed at a gathering of prestigious elites in the Empire.

Everything from pretentious sayings that they are not afraid of a god, to reckless words and deeds that destroyed trade products.

As a result, Frontier’s actions were said to have benefited the family, but the actions themselves were only seen as reckless.

“Frondier, aren’t you really afraid of the gods?”

Cybel asked.

It was pure curiosity, not mockery or contempt.

Frontier looked at Cybel and answered.

“yes.”

“… … End?”

“yes?”

Cybel pursed her lips at the too short answer.

“It’s too dangerous to say something because you want to get in shape.”

“What form do you take in such a place?”

I don’t know.

It doesn’t seem like he really wanted to form.

“Come on, let’s move on to that, and we have something else to talk about today.”

Aster said as if to ventilate the surroundings.

Saibel said.

“The third grader and the teacher who will accompany you. Were you deciding who to be?”

Yes. The three of them gathered for a reason.

The number of people to explore the dungeon is 5 people. At least two of them must include a third grader and a teacher.

“Who will you do it with? Teachers usually cooperate, but there are many people who refuse the third grade. Because I’m busy with my work and it’s boring. Shouldn’t I be writing down a list from the beginning, assuming that I will be rejected?”

Soon after, Cybel and Aster mentioned several seniors in their third year.

Cybel was diligently listing those mentioned.

Meanwhile, Frontier remained silent.

The reason they didn’t ask Frontier was because they knew that he was originally lazy, but it was also because he had a surprisingly thoughtful expression on his face.

“… … I.”

And at the end of that thought, Frontier’s mouth was opened.

“Senior Queenie.”

“… … yes?”

Aster asked.

“If you’re a senior in Quunier, what is Quunier de Viet?”

“yes.”

Frontier nodded, and Aster’s and Cybel’s eyes met.

Quinier de Viet.

A genius who revived a family on the verge of collapse at a young age of less than 20.

People call her ‘godly devil quinie’, with her cold work, heartless determination, and a genius commercial ability.

said Frontier.

“What do you think? If I build a relationship with Queenie from now on, it will be of great help in the future.”

“Yeah, but… … .”

The two of them had a positive yet sullen expression on their faces.

Cybel said frankly.

“… … I don’t think it will help.”

Yes. None of them are friends with Quinier.

Besides, the quinie is a very thorough type of profit and loss calculation. I’m not the kind of person who just asks you to accompany me to a dungeon party.

I have to give something up.

“As far as I know, Quinnier doesn’t like ‘trauma’ or ‘debt’. A way to repay you later for accompany me to the dungeon won’t even work.”

At Cybel’s words, Aster nodded in agreement.

At that moment, Frontier’s languid eyes narrowed for a moment.

“If I bring the Queenie-senpai, will they both have no complaints?”

“… … Frontier, are you going to do something reckless again?”

Aster hardened his expression.

Frontier smiled at that worried face.

‘Five.’

Cybel was a little surprised by that smile.

The appearance of the Frontier itself is the epitome of a noble noble, so it is quite pleasing to see a smile on its languid face.

“don’t worry. I’ll make a good deal and come.”

* * *

I went to school after breaking up with Aster and Cybel.

Watching them exchange numbers on their phones, it reminded me that I didn’t have a phone.

Just as Etius has a TV that imitates a TV like ‘Weezer View’, there is a ‘Sage Phone’ that imitates a smartphone.

Everyone just calls me ‘Phone’. If you have a phone, you can use phone calls, text messages, and messengers freely.

But Frontier doesn’t have a sage phone. There is neither Atji, an older brother, nor Ampere, a father.

Ampere is an old man, and his way of thinking is older than that, so he has no interest in such things, and Atjie feels like his father doesn’t use it, so he doesn’t use it either.

However, as I have to help Aster, I desperately need a Sage Phone.

You can make or receive emergency contact, and you can easily check the location.

“Hmm.”

I stopped in front of a certain classroom. That alone makes it feel like the eyes and commotion around you have doubled.

let’s ignore

When the door opened, some of the students inside turned their gazes to it.

It was definitely a few at first, but they were startled by each other, so they waved their friend next to them and pointed this way, and made a voice like ‘Look at that’ outright, making the people around them also look at this side.

So in the end everyone looked at me.

… … Hurry up and let’s go

I approached a woman. The woman, of course, was also looking at me. With a very silly face.

“I found you, Quinnier.”

“… … Are you out of your mind?”

‘Goblin’ Quinier.

It was quite funny to see her bewildered face, who always had a relaxed smile.

“Did you see me at the Miller mansion last time? I guess I didn’t say hello properly back then.”

“I don’t need it. If you want to make a connection with me, send the corresponding money to our family account. Don’t let me get noticed.”

Queenie fluttered and fluttered her fan.

I brought her face close. I could hear words such as ‘Kyaak!’ and ‘Oh my gosh’ and the sound of breathing in all around me.

The quinie also hardened.

I whispered into her ear.

“I want to sell information to Quunier de Viette.”

At those words, Quunier’s fluttering hands stopped. She looked at me with sunken eyes.

She was already the head of the Viet family, not a student.

“I don’t like bullshit.”

“So do i.”

“… … Isn’t that what we’re talking about here?”

I nodded once and turned my back to walk. I didn’t even need to look back to check, I could hear Quinnie’s footsteps following me.

The sound of the naval forces around them got louder for a while.

* * *

“So, what?”

I moved into an empty classroom.

Queenie thoroughly applied the magic ‘Wind Whisper’ to prevent our voices from leaking out. It was a pleasure for me as well.

I closed my eyes for a moment.

It’s good to get to know Quinnie as soon as possible. It’s the same for me and Aster.

That is, there are benefits to Quunier’s business, but more importantly, she is a ‘reliable person’.

In Etius, people who can trust and entrust my back are more important than anyone else.

But now I don’t have much to offer her.

But only one thing. I have information that is sure to be terrifying for a quinie.

I thought for a moment about how best to say this, and then opened my mouth.

“A demon from ‘outside’ is coming.”

“… … !”

Quinn’s expression hardened.

monsters outside.

As I said before, in the world of Etius, the realm of humans is insignificant. It is difficult for the present human beings to catch the monsters in that realm.

‘Outside’ literally means outside the realm of humanity. The monsters that lurk there are different from the monsters inside.

She looked at me suspiciously.

“If you say something like that, won’t it just end?”

“But if you let it go, it really doesn’t end there.”

Queenie looked into my eyes. If you do that, you will be able to read my heart.

I accepted those eyes as they were.

“The 3rd graders have an assignment soon, right? For a pro temporary experience.”

“… … How else do you know that?”

“There, you will encounter a monster ‘out there’.”

“… … some?”

Quinier asked for details of the information before verifying its authenticity.

That’s right.

I spread my index finger.

“It is one.”

“… … one? You mean one?”

“Yes. An exceptionally weak entity in the hordes of the outside world. A loser who could not stand the life of the group and fell apart. I will face him.”

Queenie blinked at my words. He looked like he didn’t know how to react.

I smiled softly.

“It doesn’t sound like such a dangerous thing, does it?”

“… … To be honest, it is. I’ve never met a monster outside. But with only one, you’re a loser. Isn’t being afraid of it ignoring the pros?”

“That idea is not wrong. An individual that is inferior to that is enough to subdue even one professional.”

“Then why-”

“Because Queenie-senpai’s dispatch mission was not originally intended for him.”

Queenie’s eyes widened at my words. After all, Queenie, the detection is quick.

Still, speaking directly worked, so I continued.

“A lot of people will die. Even if the monsters on the ‘outside’ are the same as those on the inside, they are much stronger and, above all, cunning. It will hide and stalk people from far away from the pros. Until the moment the pro finds it.”

“… … Oh.”

Quunier, who had been listening quietly, raised one corner of her mouth.

“There are a lot of third graders. There are also ordinary people in the experience area. What’s the probability that I’ll be beaten by him? Before that, the pros will find him. I just need to dodge in moderation while someone else is being attacked. Besides, you already have all the information, what do I need to give you?”

I don’t care about the death of others, as long as my safety is guaranteed.

A cold-hearted person who only thinks about money and power to build a family.

‘Goblin’ Quinier.

… … I’m really good at acting like that.

She is the head of Viet.

“I know his weakness. That is the information I am selling.”

“… … !”

Quinn’s eyes fluttered.

If she really intends to hide and run away from people, this information is meaningless.

What do you do when you know your weaknesses? If you keep running away, that’s enough.

But Queenie was shaken.

It was just a lie that she sacrificed others.

I lowered my eyes. It’s also painful to see Queenie’s pretentiousness beyond this.

“You don’t like people dying.”

“… … ! All, who are you… … !”

“I have a medium through which I can get my own information. That’s how I got this information.”

The memory of the game of Etius repeated countless times in the real world. There is no more accurate medium for me.

At my words, Queenie bit her lower lip. It sounds like her head is spinning.

Quinnie looked straight at me and said.

“therefore? What do you want? Is it money?”

cool and fast

You must have decided that it would be more beneficial to do business with me than the probability of telling a lie.

“no. This time, we got a chance to enter the lower dungeon. Would you like to accompany me?”

“… … Is that okay?”

Quinn asked suspiciously.

I smiled.

Quinier hates deals that are too profitable for her. It is because there is a suspicion that there are some flaws hidden.

“And I need some stuff.”

Because I said To make a fair deal with her.

Actually, from my point of view, this is the main point.

Since Gram’s weaving was unfinished, I had a lot of things I needed.

“thing?”

“Yes. First of all, you need something that can increase your mana total. Flasks, artifacts, whatever.”

“… … I suddenly want something big. Are there any more?”

“The other is an ornament that can hold water. It would be nice if it could be worn on the body and it would be easy to take out and put water in. And the inside must not be visible.”

“It’s a strange order. I’d rather carry a water bottle with me.”

“I wish it was very, very easy to take out and put in.”

Queenie tilted her head even more and looked at me like a strange person. But I had nothing more to say.

The accessories that can hold water are actually to contain the ‘heukcheon’.

The more I say it accurately, the more likely Quunier will find out, so I just changed it to water.

“like. That’s two, right? In the name of the Viet family, I promise to provide.”

“thank you.”

“therefore? What are your weaknesses?”

“Weakness, ah.”

I thought of something and stopped.

Queenie’s brow narrowed.

“what? You’re not going to do something that hasn’t happened now, are you?”

“no. After thinking about it, there was one more thing I needed.”

“What?”

“It would be nice if I could get a sage phone.”

Quinnie opened her mouth as if it was absurd.

“You don’t have a phone?”
