Academy’s Weapon Replicator - Chapter 582

Chapter 152: Balance (7)

The light of the smartwatch never seemed to fade.

The notification sound continues to beep loudly. I want to check the contents, but it’s so dazzling that I don’t even know what it says.

And then.

“huh… … ?”

Selena and I noticed that there was a lot of noise on either side of the aisle.

“What is this sound… … ?”

“Rather than a sound, it feels like something is busy.”

Selena’s eyes narrowed.

But unlike Selena, who denied the ‘sound’, I hear a really loud sound.

If so, no way.

‘Is it a soul!’

“Let’s go, Selena!”

I stopped judging and moved on. Selena came into my shadow.

When they saw Moirai’s memories, they blocked the soul from passing through. It was a battlefield to send me back.

So the souls will still be gathered on one side or the other.

‘Then it will be there in Aji too!’

My speed increased.

As I flew along, following the sound of the passage, I soon saw a huge figure in the distance.

‘… … chimera?’

If it were in front of you, you would have to raise your head completely to make eye contact with something so huge that it was blocking your path.

The body was a mixture of all kinds of beasts. There are so many things attached to each other that it is impossible to describe them in detail, but what stands out most is that the lower body is reptile-like.

‘That guy is Campero!’

The chimera didn’t notice me approaching and was struggling hard with the spirits in front of it.

Things like roughly when I will be able to pass by, and if this is going to happen, please send me back to this world. These were words that spirits would say, so I quickly understood the situation.

Anyway, the number of souls is enormous. A long procession with no end in sight, filling the huge passage.

Tartarus is not where all souls come from. I’m sure there are a lot of heinous criminals and criminals coming, but if you guessed it that way, is there really that many of them?

I quickly approached Campe.

“hey! Are you Kampe?”

“ok… … ?”

Only then did Campe leisurely look back at me.

Then he immediately opened his eyes.

“no! “How is it coming from that direction!”

Soon Campe looked at me in a state of alertness.

“No way, you were the one who killed Moirai!”

… … hmm.

Even though he didn’t see it in person, he seems to know that Moirai is dead. Well, as Moirai said herself, the world of salvation must have been destroyed, so is it strange that she doesn’t notice?

“okay.”

I answered honestly.

I don’t want to convince this guy, the important thing right now is Azi.

If you block the road here… … .

“Is that really true!”

Campe said so,

He grinned.

“!”

It was the most terrifying sight I’ve seen recently.

“That Moirai is finally dead! ha ha ha! “It’s a good thing!”

“… … “Is this a good thing?”

“okay. Their power to control fate grew stronger, and they even tried to do whatever they wanted to Tartarus. But you killed that Moirai!”

puck! puck!

Campe tapped me on the shoulder.

I suffered pure damage.

“I’m not really surprised.”

“I’ve heard a lot about you. Your guy is Frontier, right? There are some people who support you. “I am one of them.”

As far as I know, Campe is a character who was killed by Zeus. That was the case in the mythology of my original world. He is inevitably an enemy of Zeus, and from that perspective, can he be said to be close to a giant?

“I’m sorry, but I’m looking for my brother. “It’s probably here somewhere.”

“what? I was wondering why they came all this way, was that the reason? “Are you going to say goodbye to your soul brother?”

“no. “I will send you back to this world.”

When I answered that, Campe’s eyes changed.

“You’re suddenly making strange noises. Frontier.”

“… … My brother was dragged away by the power of Thanatos. “He’s not dead.”

“Same.”

At that time, Campe’s momentum was already alive.

Tsk, I clicked my tongue. Is this what happens in the end?

“All souls who come here are under my authority. “It’s not something you can take if you want.”

I pointed in the opposite direction with my thumb.

“We haven’t arrived in Tartarus yet, have we?”

“Don’t think that kind of pun will work.”

Kampe growls.

I clenched my fists.

Do we have to fight in the end? I don’t want to fight with this type. It’s like I’m interfering with a being that’s just doing its own thing. The duty lies with the other person, and it is me who is unreasonable.

But if Thanatos’ deterrence is working for Campe.

I have no choice but to make my stubbornness work.

“────Brother!”

Then I heard a voice from very far away.

In the midst of this commotion where most souls were pouring out their complaints, the cry was quite different.

So I heard it, or not.

“brother! it’s me!”

That voice.

Maybe it was because it was so familiar to my ears.

“… … ?”

I left Campe standing in front of me alone.

I turned my gaze towards that voice as if I was possessed.

“Brother, it’s me! Don’t you recognize me? “It’s me!”

I left the human world to save Ajie,

We came all the way to Tartarus.

And in front of my eyes,

‘Ahjie… … .’

There was Atzie.

He was in the form of a soul, but other than that, he was the same as usual, and his atmosphere and energy were also those of Atjie.

I finally met him.

however.

“Is it because it’s been so long? “Well, how many years has it been since then?”

There was another person in front of me besides him.

“it’s me! brother!”

That guy.

“It’s Frontier!”

Frontier.

It was Frontier de Roach.

Frontier de Roach, not me, stands before my eyes.

“… … Pron… … Dear… … ?”

Ajie can’t hide his embarrassment.

His brows narrowed, and he looked suspiciously at the soul in front of him claiming to be Frontier.

However, no matter how much you doubt it, nothing will change the frontier in front of you.

Because that guy is real.

I knew it the moment I saw it.

It is not an illusion, a trick, or a trick. Pure and simple, the spirit of Frontier was there.

And I,

“Oh, that guy!”

I have been pretending to be Frontier until now.

“It’s fake! That b*stard! “He’s the one who kept me here for years!”

“… … .”

Frondeer pointed at me and shouted. Eyes filled with resentment and anger.

I closed my mouth and looked at Frontier.

Naturally, Aji also saw me, and he looked at me and Frondier in surprise.

“what… … ?”

Even when the situation gets to this point, Ajie tries to calmly understand the situation without much panic.

I felt like my throat was burning and I could barely get my voice out.

“… … how.”

The voice was directed at Campe.

“Is he here?”

“Oh, you mean that guy?”

Campe snorted happily when he saw the real Frontier.

“What did you just say? Ajie is not properly dead. Same goes for that guy. The soul flowed here without going through the process of death. So I can’t go to Tartarus and I have to stay here. It’s quite old by human standards. “Has it been three years?”

I guess so.

Because it took that long for me to take Frontier’s place and come back here.

And Campe looked at me suspiciously.

“Looking at you now, you look just like that guy. Yes, that guy also called himself Frontier.”

“… … .”

“Are you sure you’re fake?”

FALSE.

Campe asks me.

I was about to answer when I closed my mouth and opened it again.

“Yes.”

My voice trembled.

“joy. Well, I guess it’s good.”

Campe snorted once more as if it was absurd.

“Hey, you said you were going to get your brother back right in front of me, right? “They’re saying nonsense like, ‘I’m not really dead.’”

“… … .”

“Before we question how bullshit that is, shouldn’t we at least be fair?”

“equity.”

“okay. “I want to save my brother so much.”

Shouldn’t you die?

The soul that hasn’t died is out there.

It’s a fake that has taken over the body as it pleases.

* * *

Ospreet and Elodie were the first to arrive at Tavern.

As I climbed up the wall, I could clearly see the pillar of light rising into the sky.

Ospreet said.

“I’ll find a suitable door. “I’ll come back to this wall, so get ready.”

“yes. “Leave it to me.”

Elodie nodded, and Ospreet flew up again and disappeared inside the barrier.

Phew. Elodie sighed lightly and looked straight ahead.

‘… … It’s a combination of four elements.’

Ospreet said that if that opportunity comes once in one’s life, it is a miracle.

But when does that opportunity come?

What if I don’t need the magic when that time comes?

Are you saying we should try something new without knowing how it will turn out and be satisfied with that?

“… … “It’s really useless magic, let alone rewriting the history of magic.”

[it is not so.]

“Ouch!”

Elodie looked to the side in surprise.

There was Rudra.

“What, what! You were surprised! “No matter how many times I called, he never showed up!”

Elodie scolded him, but Rudra did not respond.

He looked more serious than ever before.

“… … what? “It doesn’t suit me.”

[Elodie.]

It was Agni who appeared this time.

Elodie’s eyes widened in surprise. Agni is the god who lends Elodie a lot of power after Rudra, but they rarely have conversations. Moreover, this is my first time talking to her.

Then Indra and Chandra also appeared one after another.

“… … Vishnu.”

Even Vishnu, with whom Elodie had recently announced a break in relations, appeared in front of her again.

“What are you? Aside from the other kids, why are you coming? Because we’re breaking off ties. “Me and you.”

“know.”

Vishnu answered in a dry tone.

Then he pointed to Elodie.

“I’m doing this because we broke up our relationship.”

“… … what?”

Duung!

Vishnu’s fingertips radiated light, and the light enveloped Elodie.

The next moment.

“… … her?”

Elodie was standing in a space she had never seen before.

Look around. there’s nothing. Just a white, completely white space.

‘what? dream? hallucination?’

Elodie thinks so, but she knows it sensuously.

This is not a dream. Her body, this entire space, are all real.

And then the five gods appeared next to her again.

Elodie looked at the whole thing and changed into a battle stance.

“What are you guys? “Did you at least plot a plot?”

It’s so sharp that if you make one mistake, you’ll break off relations with all of the gods. Rudra saw that and narrowed his eyes.

“… … Elodie. “I asked you.”

“what?”

“What does Frontier mean to you? “How much can you take?”

─Please protect Frontier. How much are you willing to sacrifice to achieve that one thing? Is that more important than your life? Is it worth twisting your entire fate? Or, is this something that should be prioritized even if it destroys the balance of the entire world?

─You don’t have to answer now. But don’t forget. Just put it off as long as you can, and then answer when you can’t put it off any longer.

Rudra asked Elodie.

At that time, Elodie could not answer.

Because I barely understood what he said.

But it still remains the same.

“Elodie. “I’m sorry, but now is the time when I can’t put it off.”

“I don’t know what you’re talking about. Why is it important for me to answer that?”

Then Vishnu sighed.

“Hey Rudra. Even in this situation, are you going to stick by Elodie’s side? “I’m not prepared for anything, this guy.”

Rudra had no reaction to Vishnu’s blatant sarcasm.

Instead, Elodie got angry, but Agni spoke before her.

“Tempeozoo Combination.”

“Uh, huh?”

“Elodie. You are ready for it.”

“… … so? Are the five gods getting together and having a celebration party?”

Agni shakes his head.

“It’s time to make up your mind.”

“Resolution… … ?”

It was Indra who spoke next.

“The combination of four elements is the only magic among all magic that surpasses the power of God.”

“Exceeding the power of God? “Are you saying it’s magic that even you guys can’t do?”

“okay. You heard it from Ospreet, right? Combination of four elements requires ‘coincidence’. But from God’s perspective, it’s closer to fate than coincidence. “Even the gods can’t do anything about fate.”

“That opportunity doesn’t come to you just by waiting. Elodie, you are now on the path to destiny.”

Elodie squinted one eye.

The scale of what is being said is so broad that it is difficult to understand.

Elodie said roughly what she understood.

“therefore… … . “The fateful point has come for me, and when that point comes, you’re telling me to combine four elements?”

“The important issue starts from there.”

e
Rudra said.

“Are you really going to do this combination of Four Elements and Elements?”

“… … what?”

“The combination of four elements is the domain of the world. And its role is limited.”

“The combination of the four elements is space magic?”

“no. It’s different from space magic. I told you. “It is a realm beyond the scope of the gods.”

“… … So, what does that mean?”

“The combination of the four elements is a power that surpasses the world. Elodie. That’s what you mean by using quaternary combinations. “Your role is arranged there.”

Elodie looked at Rudra curiously.

role? Power beyond the world? I don’t know what you’re talking about.

More than anything, I feel bad that Rudra keeps diverting words.

“What are you talking about earlier? “If it’s that kind of magic, then why am I using that kind of magic?”

“It’s Frontier. “Elodie.”

It was Vishnu who interrupted him.

Vishnu also seemed frustrated that Rudra was spinning his words, and spat at Elodie.

“I’m asking Frontier if he wants to use that magic.”

“… … “Well, no, what?”

“Are you going to send Frontier back to the world it came from?”

Elodie doesn’t understand Vishnu’s words.

Although I don’t understand.

The cold wind blowing from somewhere freezes her from the tip of her solar plexus.

Vishnu seemed to rather enjoy the sight.

“Frondier you know. Frontier, whom you cherish so dearly. “It’s actually a fake from another world.”

There is even a subtle smile on his face as he speaks.

“Are you going to send that fake to the original world? Well, it doesn’t matter if it’s fake or real, right? “Because he is a hero who will save the world.”
