Academy’s Weapon Replicator

Chapter 6 Golems (4)

The throwing distance of daggers made of weaving has increased.

The situation was so urgent that I threw it away and, fortunately, even reached him as ‘reality’.

If I had left the training room earlier, I would have been able to try it more safely.

‘By the way, what is that?’

Boasting a huge body and wearing two pieces of metal armor, the shape was undoubtedly a metal golem.

I saw Edwin.

From a distance, Edwin seemed to be the owner of the golem.

“… … Edwin-senpai.”

“Frondie.”

The voice calling my name is somewhat dry.

He calls my name with a voice that seems to contain all the resentment of the world.

“It’s you again.”

“… … See you for the second time.”

I approached Elin, slightly wary of Edwin.

Get down on your knees and watch her condition. There is a cut on the side.

“Did Edwin do this?”

At my words, Elin blinked her languid eyes a few times.

I don’t know if I’m sleepy or tired.

“… … Golem did it.”

“That golem is being controlled by Edwin-senpai.”

“… … yes. sorry.”

what are you sorry

I got up.

Still, the flames of Edwin’s wrath were directed only at me. As if I was the last piece of the puzzle that I could put together on my own.

‘… … No, I hope.’

Edwin’s surroundings are dyed purple. It rises like a haze from his body.

I know the identity of that.

In Etius, where there is not much preference for players, it is one of the things that sets it apart.

A purple haze that only the player can see.

This is evidence that the character has ‘corrupted’.

‘This, beggar.’

Why is Edwin ‘fallen’?

He had never been like that.

As I played countless times, he was sure to stand up and restore the family’s honor and glory.

That golem, even if I had been there for two more years, I could only create it with my own skills.

Edwin’s current appearance is too unfamiliar to me.

As for the reason, only one thing.

‘… … Is it me?’

A character that doesn’t exist no matter how many times I play.

frontier.

Does the existence of Frontier de Roach corrupt Edwin von Behertio?

“Frondie. That golem doesn’t belong to Edwin. Edwin is being wielded by the golem.”

“Okay, I’m taking a break.”

It is difficult to hear the voices struggling with pain.

‘I am being swung by a golem’. In other words, the golem’s movement is not Edwin’s intention.

“Sir Edwin.”

“… … why?”

“Can you handle that golem?”

“of course.”

A metal golem that moves as if to prove that answer.

Clearly, the golem seemed faithful to Edwin’s orders. No, are you faithful to that will?

As a me who just intervened, I don’t know why the two of them fought.

I don’t know.

“… … Senpai, did you ever kill someone with that?”

Edwin’s eyes darkened at my question.

yes it is This is a question that makes me feel bad even when I hear it. But, inevitably, the question must be asked.

“… … This guy and that guy, Mr. X, the sound of killing that guy… … !”

I knew it. Elin asked, too.

“What if I killed someone?”

“… … .”

“What are you going to do, kid?!”

Boo-woong, the golem flew up.

The sight of him running towards me while wielding a spear was reminiscent of a top with a rotating sickle.

It’s worse than that though.

weaving

Workshop No. 13

Rank – Rare

Bastard, Lion’s Greatsword

I spread the weave and held the Bastard Sword with both hands.

Such an ignorant attack, it cannot be stopped with a small weapon.

Due to the weakness of the weaving, which disappears the moment it collides, it will die if it is not completely knocked out.

“Ugh!”

Kaang-!

I slashed the golem’s spear, and my weapon disappeared at that moment.

The golem did not understand that his spear was suddenly blocked.

Previously, he had been hit in the face several times by woven daggers, but the golem lacks the original ability to learn.

then,

gang!

Kaang!

I weave a dagger and flew it to his face.

If you don’t learn, keep getting hit. I’ll beat you to rags.

But he made progress little by little.

Since I can only weave one at a time, that amount of free time comes to me.

‘Weaving two weapons, I’ll practice.’

Regret is always late.

* * *

Elin checked the wounded abdomen. The blood stopped and the pain subsided a little.

Her trained body and accumulated mana steadily restored her body.

When she had some spare time, she watched the battle of Frontier.

‘You have to run away… … .’

Why is Frontier helping? Frontier wouldn’t know me.

Even if you knew, there would be no reason to risk your life.

I heard a little about Frontier from my younger brother, Aster.

Did I say that he was a much more reliable and decent person than the reputation of ‘human sloth’?

However, from Elin’s point of view, it was not a very reliable word.

Aster is indebted to Frontier for the Mystyltain case.

But he knew nothing about his fighting abilities.

If the rumors that he sleeps all the time in the classroom and tries to get rid of practical training and outdoor classes somehow are true, it is unlikely that he will do well in battle.

Even now, there is still no system in the movement of the Frontier against the golem.

But, why?

‘How are you blocking it?’

Frontier is empty-handed. However, every time he swings his hand, the golem’s spear bounces off, and the golem’s head shakes.

At first, I thought of ‘transparency’. Hiding one’s weapon with magic. It is definitely a difficult skill, but it must be worth it.

‘… … But then, how did you save me?’

He threw ‘something’ at the spear that stabbed at her and smashed it away.

I don’t know what it is, but I guess, a throwing dagger?

But it’s constantly thrown away. As if there is no limit to the number.

Even thinking like that, this time it seems like he is holding something and wielding it with both hands. It blocks the golem’s spear.

It also sometimes cuts a golem’s waist or leg from a very short distance.

dagger? window? great sword?

It annoys the opponent just by being invisible, and I can’t even understand the length of it.

‘… … I’m sorry.’

Still, Elin expected Frontier’s defeat.

At first glance, it seems that Frontier is attacking unilaterally, but all of those attacks are meaningless to the Golem.

If you repeat that kind of thing hundreds of thousands of times, the golem might fall. But first, Frontier’s stamina will run out.

If only he had mastered the ‘Auror’, there would have been a possibility of defeating the Golem.

‘… … Whoa.’

Elin took a deep breath. Frontier is thankfully buying the time.

You need to recover quickly, giving Frontier time to escape. If possible, with yourself.

Looking at the situation, I don’t think Frontier will be hit all of a sudden.

“… … That spear.”

Then I heard Frontier’s murmur.

Elin felt the voice ominous and looked up to see the golem.

The golem stopped the blind offensive it had been doing so far, and took a stance.

Slowly swing the spear in that position.

It looked slow at first glance, but it had power at all speeds, and it drew a subtle trajectory that the opponent could not easily stab.

‘… … Atjie’s spear.’

Elin bit her lip.

Also, that golem is copying Atjie’s spear technique.

Frontier’s hand moved once more. Invisible Throwing Weapon.

Kaang, but this time it was blocked by the golem’s spear.

The golem didn’t stop when he saw Frontier’s weapon. It’s just that the trajectory of the moving spear does not allow the dagger to invade.

If you aim between those orbits, you can attack somehow, but it is now impossible to stop the golem.

“Frondie! Sleep and die!”

Edwin’s voice is heard.

Erin inhaled slowly and exhaled slowly.

With that breath, he inhales a piece of stamina.

* * *

Edwin’s intention to kill me is definitely real.

That’s weird. Everything else seems to have been a mistake, but there is only murderous intent towards me.

Did my actions cause that level of anger?

‘furthermore.’

The haze of Edwin’s “Corruption” from a while ago looks strange.

Could it be that you couldn’t see it as a game, or maybe it was because it was a game?

The purple haze seemed to have some form.

like a human. Something that resembles humans.

It felt like someone was behind Edwin’s back.

Whik!

I narrowly avoided the tip of the spear and backed away.

If it were Aji, I would have died here.

This golem imitates Atjie’s spear technique, but it’s still different. If it’s a game, it’s less coded. The technology is used according to the conditions, but the conditions are still simple.

“Frondie!!”

Edwin’s voice is heard.

It’s still a voice full of passion.

“I already killed someone! As long as I’ve already killed you once, adding one more won’t change anything!”

That voice is like a confession of despair.

In the meantime, the golem continues to swing its spear towards me.

If you’re going to disturb me with your voice, that’s a great link.

“If you came here with a clumsy determination that you wouldn’t die, you… … !”

Oh, it’s noisy. I’m still busy, but I’m going to die.

“It’s noisy! Because no one died!”

Kaang!

I shouted and swung my woven bayonet.

Striking down the golem’s spear is also slowly overpowering. It is also dangerous to continue to consume mana.

“What, what?”

Edwin stuttered as if he was a bit bewildered by my cry.

“Did you confirm that?”

“If you don’t check that, you know!”

what happened What exactly is it that makes Elin and Edwin fight? Why do you think Edwin killed someone?

I don’t know any of that.

I don’t know.

“You couldn’t have killed anyone!”

I know Edwin von Behertio.

The purple haze is evidence of corruption.

There is nothing you can do after you fall.

But that haze had only just begun to rise. In other words, Edwin had not fallen before that.

There is no way that an uncorrupted Edwin would kill a person.

“Yes, what do you know… … !”

what do you know

how do i explain that

The days when I became Aster and challenged Etius countless times with you.

The lives that have watched you countless times.

Will you understand if I explain it all?

Whatever you did with the golem,

As long as you have the will, you will be swayed by golems that move at will, or whatever.

My thoughts are unchanged.

Edwin can’t have the heart to kill someone, even for a moment.

That irresistible softness is the weakness that has tormented Edwin so far,

It was Edwin’s own dignity that would later elevate the Behertio family splendidly.

“ah… … no! I! Cowards, who ran away without checking to see if those people were dead… … !”

Edwin seemed confused. On the other hand, the golem’s attack becomes more intense.

That antinomy would probably make Elin feel uncomfortable as well as me.

I see it in my eyes. The purple haze that dwelled in Edwin slowly moved towards the golem.

Now I know the true nature of that ‘fall’.

I have witnessed God.

A small boy with spread black wings who tried to kill me under the guise of suicide.

Thanatos.

The same atmosphere as it is now is felt from that ‘fallen’.

I don’t know who.

Behind Edwin’s back, ‘God’ exists.
