Academy’s Weapon Replicator

Chapter 12 The Traitor (1)

Aten quickly approached and checked the condition of Frontier.

A moment of embarrassment is enough.

She calmed her mind in an instant.

Frontier appeared to have just fainted.

however.

‘The pulse… … .’

I checked my pulse, but it’s too light.

If you don’t really put all your heart into it, you won’t be able to feel the beat.

The same goes for breathing.

“I will check.”

The Healer of the Imperial Knights has arrived.

Healer stretched out his hand and grasped the condition of Frontier’s body.

It is to check the inside of the body through mana.

“… … This.”

Healer widened his eyes as if he couldn’t believe it.

His eyes were filled with despair and fear.

“How is your condition?”

“… … Every part of the body is missing.”

“A loss, you say?”

“The heart, lungs, liver, stomach, and other organs, as well as bones, nerves, and muscles are all lacking.”

Not enough

Aten recalled what Renzo had said.

– Indeed! Is it doping? I don’t know what I’ve done, but I can’t believe it!

doping.

Renzo said so.

It was definitely an unbelievable amount of mana.

I don’t know how.

But if the price is this physical condition, it’s too harsh.

“Then what should I do?”

“… … .”

“Is it possible to recover with healing magic?”

“… … .”

Even though Aten was asking, Healer just kept his mouth shut as if in trouble.

“Why aren’t you talking?”

Aten’s expression turned cold.

She never panicked.

At times like this, it just gets colder.

“… … Aten. Heel is a means of healing wounds. But his only wounds are bruises on his side. Of course, this is also serious, but even if this wound is healed… … .”

“Even if you recover?”

“… … You won’t be able to get the missing part back.”

At Healer’s words, Aten tightly closed her eyes.

With her eyes open again, she saw her mother, Philly.

“Then take Frontier immediately to the hospital, mother.”

“… … Aten.”

“Hurry up. Surgery may be delayed.”

“Aten.”

“hurry-“

Philly grabbed Aten’s shoulder.

“This child cannot be moved now.”

“… … .”

“Did you hear that, not only the intestines, but also the muscles, bones, and nerves are missing. I don’t know what’s going to happen in the process of moving.”

Now, Frontier’s body is weaker than the child’s.

There are more missing sheep than babies, but they have a much larger volume than children.

No matter how carefully you move it by car on a stretcher, safety cannot be guaranteed.

“Even if I had surgery, even if it went really well, I would have to live with a serious disability.”

At Pili’s words, Aten looked at Frontier’s face.

It was the face I always saw.

When I met him in Constell, he was always chasing after him.

That face, that shoulder, that body.

“… … Then what are you going to do?”

No one answered Aten’s words.

“Aten-sama, unfortunately, he… … .”

A knight approached Aten.

Aten looked at him with emotionless eyes.

“He did his best to save Aten. As much as he saved the imperial princess, it is the greatest honor for him—”

damn!

When Aten heard the knight’s unrequited consolation, he slapped him on the cheek without mercy.

A cold frost formed on his cheek as he had been beaten.

“Shut your mouth. The Frontier did not save the Imperial Princess.”

“Ah, Aten-sama.”

“It’s not like that.”

are you proud?

Because I’m a princess?

You saved me because Frontier de Roach is a princess?

it is not so.

If I had, Frontier wouldn’t have been so comfortable with me.

Like so many other people, he crawled in front of me and treated me with an absurd title.

it is not so.

Frontier didn’t save the princess.

In his eyes, Aten or someone else must have been the same person.

I just saved an ordinary person.

That was Frontier’s choice.

Aten knelt down.

I looked at Frontier with those pure white eyes.

“Aten?”

… … The imperial family are those who stand on it to protect the people.

What was the purpose of the countless wealth and power, and the countless educations based on him?

save it

That’s your job, Atten.

Aten’s magic power rose.

As a result, the ambient temperature dropped.

Originally, Aten was special in ice magic.

But more than that.

As if it was going to freeze even the breath she exhaled, Aten slowly became cold.

“Ah, Aten-sama! Dangerous!”

The voice of the knight who stopped her.

I can’t hear it.

It is as far away as the horse across the water.

Aten has reached a certain level now.

‘think.’

Find a way.

How do I save Frontier?

I never learned anything like healing magic.

Healing doesn’t work in the first place.

You can’t get back what you lost.

‘… … Unless it’s lost.’

Frontier has increased mana.

In that recoil, many parts of his body were lost.

In other words, a lot of that was changed to mana.

What you need to do is not heal the wound.

Just as you changed your body to mana, this time to change your mana into your body.

That is, ‘return’.

I’ve never done that before, and I don’t know if that’s possible.

For some reason, Aten had a foreboding that it was possible.

Aten’s hands went up on Frontier.

Every time her hand moved, the air shimmered.

Particles of air were freezing.

That cold mana seeped into Frontier’s body.

‘… … I see.’

Aten understood the condition of Frontier’s body through the process.

Healers have achieved a skill that could only be achieved through years of training at this moment.

Upon checking the inside, I could see for myself how dangerous Frontier was right now.

Not dead

obviously alive

However, the light of that life was gradually extinguished.

Lost intestines, muscles, blood and bones.

In order to maintain Frontier’s life, everything has become too ‘small’.

‘Okay, if we spread mana evenly like this… … .’

Aten slowly drained the mana to the part where Frontier was missing.

The precision of the mana manipulation, which was almost like a thread, was astonishing.

however.

‘… … It’s impossible, Aten.’

Philly, watching it, swallowed a confused expression.

Even if Aten puts his mana into his amazing manipulation power.

Even if Aten could really return mana to his body.

In the end, knowledge is blocked.

“… … !”

Aten’s fingertips trembled.

It was Philly’s idea.

It was successful until it contained mana, but that was it.

Aten had an intuition that ‘reduction’ would be possible with his abilities.

But you can’t do what you don’t know.

“… … Aten… … .”

Everyone was looking at Aten.

That cold face was stained with pain.

Blood dripping from her biting lower lip.

‘find… … .’

Find a way, Aten.

you are a princess

You have to save people.

‘… … Nope.’

That’s not it.

Are you going to come all the way here and still lie to this point?

Not as a princess.

Just like Frontier saved Aten Terst, not the Princess.

I want to save Frontier.

I,

That’s me, Atten Terst!

Frontier de Roach!

… … uh?

Then she saw a certain sight.

A sight that only reaches her eyes, not reality.

jerk.

Philly, who was watching, took a step forward.

Aten will dry.

Afterwards, Fili will inform Aten of her foresight.

Aten has a future where he can ‘reduce’ someday.

Then you will surely be hated by Aten.

Why didn’t you tell me in advance?

He said he would have saved Frontier if he did.

Aten, who was the purpose of her life, will curse her for a long time.

It’s okay though.

Something like that hatred, something I was prepared for a long time ago.

“Aten, stop it-”

Philly stopped to say that.

Aten was looking at the air, not the Frontier.

When he looked into Atten’s eyes, concerned about the strange behavior.

Philly knew.

What is Aten looking at now?

‘Atten, please… … !’

-I’m a descendant of Bala.

– My mother said she could do it.

– I wish my daughters didn’t have this ability.

Philly said to Frontier.

She is able to foretell because she is a descendant of Vala.

Philly’s mother was also able to use that foresight.

If so, my daughter Aten is also-!

‘… … ah.’

Aten saw.

He didn’t feel all the future with his senses like Philly.

Bala’s blood fades as the generations go on.

The only thing Aten can see now is herself.

only your own future.

‘I see.’

Someday in the future, I saw myself standing as a healer,

I saw that knowledge.

Aten poured mana.

Aten’s cold mana pouring down to Frontier.

Aten’s eyes were warmly looking at Frontier in the cold air that freezes and breaks into light.

As if waking him up from a sleep.

Frontier, frontier.

wake up.

Frontier’s eyes trembled.

His eyes slowly opened, and he saw Aten smiling as if crying.

“… … Aten.”

“Mr. Frontier.”

“… … Why are you laughing or crying?”

Seeing the frontier who gave him a pint glass as usual, Aten smiled a little uncharacteristically of her.

“I saw the future.”

“… … Aten.”

Frontier sighed in response.

“From the moment we first met until now.”

Conversation doesn’t work

* * *

Renzo’s intrusion signaled an emergency to the entire area of Constell.

Analysis of the extent and cause of the damage was in full swing, so all lectures were suspended.

But in fact, it was a superficial reason.

Constell had a more understandable reason for stopping his lectures.

“──Here is a mouse.”

central conference room.

At the meeting of Constell’s teachers, the combat arts teacher, Alex, growled.

Even the teacher Jane, who had always been at odds with Alex, remained silent.

Because I had the same thought.

Rather, Jane slowly opened her mouth to sympathize with Alex.

“… … Previously, while the 3rd grade students were having a professional experience, a monster from outside invaded the place.”

An outside monster that Frontier warned Queenie about.

But even though Quinnier handled it well, there was damage.

Many teachers have left Constell to commemorate the family of the deceased and investigate the cause.

The same goes for Osprit, the president.

“I think Renzo attacked me at this point in time when most of the teachers were gone.”

“Reportedly, Renzo suddenly appeared and attempted to kidnap Aten. It’s as if something popped out of nowhere.”

“… … Transfer magic.”

Teacher Vinkis, who was listening, made that decision, and everyone nodded.

But transfer magic is not as easy as it sounds.

In addition, it is even more so if you are trying to move living things, even people, rather than goods.

“I’m glad the student handled it well, it would have been much worse.”

said Jane.

The nurse, Malia, smiled bitterly.

“You handled it so well.”

Everyone nodded in agreement.

They don’t know that Frontier cut off Renzo’s arm.

They were told that something had changed.

During the actual performance, a student named Frontier de Roach accidentally found Renzo.

He then sneaked out and told Edden and others, and a neat initial response thwarted Renzo’s plans.

This was the story they knew.

Frontier did not want his performance to be known.

Of course, the people present had no choice but to know.

However, he is already acquainted with Philly, Aten, and Elin, Edden has a heavy mouth by nature, and the Knights Templar have been entrusted to Philly.

It is safe to say that as long as it is entrusted to Philly, there will be no leaks among the knights.

‘It seems that Frontier handled it too well.’

Malia thought.

I don’t know the details of how Renzo broke in, but he probably didn’t come in without thinking.

Moreover, considering that there is a traitor inside this place.

It doesn’t make sense at first glance that Renzo was caught by Frontier before he even started planning.

‘Is Frontier a traitor? … … It’s a stupid idea.’

Malia’s head turned.

‘But if you tried to stop Renzo, the student would usually try to call the teacher.’

However, in this case, none of the teachers know.

Then why didn’t Frontier notify the teacher?

‘… … That’s right.’

I don’t know how he found out, but Frontier also guessed.

That there are traitors among teachers.
