Academy’s Weapon Replicator chapter 255

Chapter 80: Embers (5)

─Renzo is currently working as a mercenary.

─It seems like I will literally do anything that makes money. Rather than money being the goal, big money comes and goes in big cases. That’s what he smells like.

─You’re not planning on meeting Renzo alone, are you? Don’t think that you can fight Renzo and come back alive.

“We’ve already fought twice.”

I checked the contents of the text and muttered to myself.

Now I am standing on the cliff of a canyon.

This is a huge wilderness that appears northeast of Constell in the center of the continent. It has no special name because it is no one’s territory, but people often call it the ‘Red Land’.

Literally, the terrain here is red like a sunset. Although the temperature is not that high, excessively dry air sweeps across the ground, and only tough weeds occasionally settle in the barren areas.

“It’s like Renzo. “I can’t believe I live in a place like this.”

Renzo has already escaped from Obsidian Prison once. However, the inside story is a bit complicated. This is because the citizens of the Empire still think Renzo is ‘dead.’

At that time, Kraken broke into Obsidian Prison and escaped with Renzo’s body.

It became big news and was spread throughout the empire. And the citizens of the empire felt uneasy about the fact that Obsidian, which they believed to be an impenetrable fortress, had been breached.

So Obsidian’s director, Esther, hid the fact that Renzo had been resurrected. Rather than hiding it, I haven’t confirmed it yet.

The only ones who directly witnessed Renzo’s resurrection were me, Kraken, Heldre, Haghli of the Cape of Man, and the other Indus members.

Here, Heldre is dead, Hagley is not a person Esther can meet, and the members of Kraken and Indus are all held in prison and cannot be trusted.

In fact, Esther needs to meet me to confirm whether Renzo has really been resurrected, but it seems that I am not a trustworthy person from her perspective.

‘The reason Renzo has been quiet so far is probably because he was looking for an opportunity. It’s literally a life reborn. If I were Renzo, I wouldn’t show up to the empire carelessly right now.’

Even Renzo, who seems to have nothing to fear in the world, has someone he is wary of. That is Esther, the prison warden.

From Renzo’s point of view, Esther seems to be ‘a woman who would be handcuffed even if she were to fall off a cliff at the end of hell.’ Moreover, since Renzo has left Obsidian, Esther must be looking for him with all eyes on him.

“So even if I come here, I don’t know if I’ll be able to meet Renzo.”

I complained. I’m not doubting Lili’s intelligence, but even if I was certain that Renzo was around here, if Renzo had a good sense of humor, he would be able to notice right away and run away or hide.

My ‘sixth sense’ has good precision, but its range is not that wide, so if it goes beyond my perception, there is no way to find it.

… … I thought so.

“──!”

From afar, I hear a sound like something yelling.

“hmm?”

I looked over and saw dust rising far down the canyon.

“────!!”

I don’t know what it is, but the voice is clearly louder than before.

Soon, the dust that was noisily approaching me sucked in all the surrounding air and flew upward.

A long cloud of dust rises from the ground, and a small shape appears above the sky.

‘… … Hey, you’re kidding, right?’

To the naked eye, it looks like someone is running and leaping upwards, but I am on top of the canyon cliff and the other person is below. Moreover, from here it only appears to be about the size of an ant.

“F—— Ron——!”

An ant-sized figure suddenly approaches and reveals itself.

Coo!

And he lands right in front of me, like a hero, and raises his head.

“Dear!”

“… … Hello, Renzo.”

What is this bastard Hulk? Does it make sense to jump from down there and get all the way here? Think about why wizards work so hard to learn flying magic.

Renzo had a spear strapped to his back. Although its appearance is hidden with a cloth, it is most likely Ares’ sacred item, ‘Encesphalus’. He’s probably also wearing a shield called ‘Rinotoros’.

“Frondier! I can’t believe I came to this red land on my own. “This is an area that is not protected by the empire.”

“… … I was looking for you. Actually, I thought I wouldn’t find you if you kept hiding.”

“Aang? Did you think I would turn my back on you? “The jokes have increased in the meantime!”

… … Actually, I was really thinking that. Of course, it’s not like I’m holding back because I’m scared.

Renzo’s tone is pleasant, but each syllable is full of life. If you touch it wrongly now, your face might be crushed by a randomly swinging fist.

I thought for a moment and then asked.

“… … “Are you not avoiding Esther’s surveillance?”

“of course!”

Renzo crossed his arms and answered proudly.

… … No, the answer shouldn’t end there?

Fortunately, Renzo pointed at me and said one more thing.

“But you came!”

“I still don’t have an answer.”

“I was planning to kill you someday. I was waiting for the day to beat you up while avoiding Obsidian’s watch. But you, who is smart, came to me first. You dared to step in and find a clear threat called me, you! “I knew right away what this meant!”

thud!

The floor where Renzo was standing was dented. It’s the pressure of the Aurors.

“It means that more interesting events are coming! That’s the only reason you come to me! “I have no time to worry about Esther!”

“… … .”

I was momentarily speechless at Renzo’s confident declaration.

No matter how the idea developed, Renzo eventually came up with the correct answer.

“I don’t know if you’re smart or not.”

“Oh, that’s not it. It looks like you really came because you wanted to die. Such wrong answers are always welcome.”

“sorry. You are right. “I came because I have something to tell you.”

If we were not careful, we would not be able to convey our business and would end up in another bloody fight. I quickly raised my hand.

“Simply put. Mangot is coming.”

“Huh, Mangot?”

“It will be the biggest battle in the Empire since the Demon War. “You know what this means, right?”

At my words, Renzo crossed his arms and lowered his head for a moment. It’s obvious what you’re thinking. He must be looking for the most fun part of himself.

“… … “Frondier, I just want to ask you one question.”

“what?”

“Are you sure you came to ask me for help?”

At that, I was silent for a moment.

Soon Renzo’s bored gaze swept over me.

“Hey, hey hey Frontier. You’re kidding, right? “Are you trying to play a joke with me?”

“As expected, you will grant this request, right?”

“ha ha ha!”

Hiss!

I managed to avoid Renzo’s fist by lowering my body. I felt a stinging pain on the back of my neck. I dodged the fist, but I couldn’t dodge the Auror.

Blame it, when I jumped back and opened the distance, Renzo looked at me with his murderous eyes flashing.

“Frondier, I thought you knew me well.”

Renzo raised his left hand. It was a much more sophisticated and luxurious device than any prosthetic hand I had ever seen. The prosthetic arm made a clanging sound, the center opened, and one of the swords stored inside was separated. Renzo grabbed the sword and pointed the tip at me.

“Why do you think I would help the Empire? If I stand on Mangot’s side, I can fight against the powerful men of the empire, and above all, I can kill you. Frondier, would it be more fun for me to fight Mangot?”

Yes. The biggest reason why it is difficult to persuade Renzo.

Renzo doesn’t care about the empire falling. Rather than neglecting his own life, he is confident that he will survive even if the entire continent is covered in a sea of fire.

From Renzo’s point of view, it would be much more fun to fight the Empire than to fight Mangot. Since he wants to kill me so much, of course if I had to choose a side, it would be Mangot’s side.

“You are smarter than me, Frondier. You probably didn’t come here without thinking, right? No, you can’t be that complacent. There is no way I can hang my head in this dry land with no connection. Frontier, stop looking at the liver and tell me what you think. Otherwise, I will amputate your limbs right here. That won’t be very pleasant. “Because I will be disappointed in you.”

Renzo’s blade gave off a shimmering blue light. The sword through which his aura flowed became more ferocious than before.

“Renzo, don’t you want to fight God?”

“… … “Hoo.”

In Renzo’s eyes, Ichae was young.

“From the way you’re talking, I’m guessing you’re not talking about divine power, are you?”

“Mangot is facing the coming of God. That’s not something that can be prevented. That god’s purpose is the destruction of mankind. “The goal is perfectly aligned with Mangot.”

“Wow, that’s an arrogant goal.”

Renzo said that,

“Hey Ares! “Is that true?”

I spat it out into the air on my right.

Needless to say, that sight sent shivers down my spine.

‘Are you talking to the god who gave you divine powers?’

Just because someone has divine power does not mean that communication with that god is the same for everyone. In the worst case, like Edwin, his mind can be manipulated, leading to bad results.

Elodie was the only person I knew who could talk to her god. Even the main character, Aster Evans, must use the sanctuary to meet his god Baldur.

Moreover, that figure, rather than just having a conversation, seems to be seeing Ares in Renzo’s eyes. This means that Ares is giving full support to Renzo.

“… … Huh, this is it.”

Renzo shook his head as he heard what Ares said.

“Hey Frontier. “The battle with God is interesting, but for now, I have to take care of my God first.”

“What do you mean?”

“Ares has a strong desire to kill you. It means our goals are aligned with mine. “You’re still making a lot of noise. There’s prey right in front of you, so why on earth are you staying quiet?”

Renzo criticized someone else again. I narrowed my eyes and examined the figure.

‘… … It seems a little bit.’

Thanks to his sixth sense, he sees something moving around Renzo. But the shape is still incomplete.

Maybe it’s my lack of intuition, but I can’t tell if Ares is floating around in that imperfect form in the first place. However, the counter-static movements were clearly noticeable.

“Anyway, that’s the way it is. Frontier.”

“… … “Is that something like that?”

“It’s something that can’t be helped.”

“Can not help it?”

Renzo raises his sword and takes a stance towards me.

“My god wants to kill you. “I need to convince him.”

“… … By that conviction, do you mean to prove that I won’t die here? Or do you want me to show you that you could be dangerous before you kill me?”

“ha ha ha! It’s you too “There’s no need to say much.”

Renzo’s eyes shine, and red energy blooms on his body. It is the divine power of Ares.

Just from that energy alone, the cliff where Renzo and I were standing began to slowly tremble. Stone dust spreads around him as if escaping, and the air trembles as if he is swallowing fear.

“Surely you won’t die? Frontier. It’s just a simple game. This is not the stage for us to fight properly. Look, neither Enquesphalus nor Linotoros were taken out.”

As Renzo said, God’s spear and shield still sleep behind his back.

“Don’t worry. I’m not telling you to impose these restrictions on yourself. Take out whatever you’re bragging about, whether it’s the bow of God, a hammer, or anything else. That way there will be some balance.”

“… … under.”

I laughed at Renzo’s confident words.

It’s such a strange thing.

When dealing with other enemies, my emotions do not go beyond the realm of disgust and anger.

“You’re so cocky, Renzo!!”

Slam!

I manipulated the armament to blow out the black sky and filled it all with weapons.

Why?

Whenever I fight with Renzo, a fever boils inside my body, as if I was infected by him.

I said with the same kind of smile as Renzo.

“Renzo, you remember your records so far, right? “You’ve already lost to me twice.”

“What bullsh*t? “The guy who was tied to a chair and begging me for his life.”

Whoosh!

Wow!!

A great sword created in the air flew towards Renzo and violently collided with his sword.

“Did you get dementia just now, Renzo? “Who begged for their life?”

“hahahaha! Isn’t it true that I saved your life? “At that time, you were in a situation where you would die if I just stabbed you in the chest.”

“Before that, I was hit by my sword from all directions and almost died, but I only survived thanks to Kian.”

“You won’t die if you get hit that way, bastard!”

from left to right

Renzo’s sword swung from left to right, and his sword energy, which was now closer to a typhoon, swept the entire front line. Several of Black Heaven’s weapons were caught in the typhoon and fell over.

“Hmph!”

I spread out the black cloth and blocked the black energy.

“ha ha ha! Weak, weak! If you’re going to drop it all, why did you keep it up in the air, Frondier? “I’m thinking of making a mobile, wow!”

Shhh!

Kaga-ga-gang!

Of course, the Black Heavens that have evolved with Helheim’s mana do not all drop. Renzo took a breath and swung his sword as I overcame the typhoon and fired my weapon. Even though I was surprised, I felt bad because I blocked it so cleanly.

I said.

“Who is going to drop it all?”

“ha ha ha! Don’t be stubborn and take out the weapon of God. No one says anything. “I want to see once again the hammer that kept you alive.”

“… … Oh, is that so?”

I grinned and stretched out my right hand. The black cloth is sucked into it and held in my hand in the form of a hammer.

When Renzo saw that, his eyes lit up with anger.

What I was holding was a wooden mallet.

“I’ll hit your head with this until it breaks.”

“… … “Is this guy really crazy?”

Right after.

The rush of my dark sky and weapons collided with the storm created by Renzo.
