Academy’s Weapon Replicator

Chapter 10 The Empress’s Perspective (6)

Me and Aten sat next to each other in the library.

I got a lot of attention even when I came here, but because it was a library, my interest quickly disappeared.

Aten has been chasing me since yesterday, so those in the know will know.

“Are you really teaching me to study?”

“okay.”

Aten looked at me suspiciously.

No, there isn’t much change in his expression, that’s just what I’m thinking.

Maybe it’s just an illusion.

“I am dubious.”

It wasn’t an illusion.

Do you have a personality that you have to tell all your inner feelings to unlock your personality?

I flipped over and opened the notebook.

And I opened the class content that I had copied so far in the workshop.

Although it may not be visible to Aten, I am literally copying the contents into my notebook.

“… … What are you doing now?”

“To be honest, it’s unreasonable to teach you to avoid failing as a standard from now on.”

It’s not about the difficulty of the midterm exam.

It’s a matter of scope.

Aten knows very little about school classes as she learns manners and techniques while living in the imperial family.

This is certain information you know while playing the game.

‘Anyway, Constell’s handwriting is all narrative.’

The game doesn’t make the player even test it, but I hear it does.

If that’s the case, you can’t just write down what you saved in the workshop.

It’s not a memory issue.

A situation where there is nothing to say even if it is called cheating.

So, I have to rewrite the class content that I copied to the studio in my own way.

What I’m writing right now is a summary of that.

Write a whole sheet and hand it to Aten.

“Come on, memorize it.”

“… … What is this?”

“The contents of a month’s worth of classes after entering Constell.”

Not everything is included

What I removed was boldly removed.

I can’t write them all down, there’s no guarantee that Aten will remember them all, and I don’t plan on getting Aten perfect in the first place.

You just have to avoid falling.

Aten took the paper and stared blankly.

“… … Is this really the content of the curriculum? Isn’t that what he wrote?”

“If you write something like that, it will be even better.”

“But right now, you’re writing it down in a notebook without a textbook.”

“Well, yes.”

I’m copying and writing down what’s in the studio.

“Are you sure you remember everything? The entire range of the midterm exam?”

“Well, that’s what it is.”

The workshop is mine.

As I answered, I was writing the next chapter.

Aten looked at it for a moment, then focused on the paper I had handed him.

I think you know I’m sincere.

After that, the quiet time continued.

Aten, who transcribes the contents of the studio, and I concentrate on the paper I gave him.

Seeing that he occasionally underlined the important parts, it seems that Atten was also doing it right.

yet.

“I wrote it all down.”

I handed the last piece of paper to Aten.

This is a brief transcript of the midterm exam.

At the same time, I re-written the contents of the workshop according to the way I wrote it, so I had a harvest too.

Aten took the paper I gave her and looked at it blankly.

If you’ve made it this far, at least you’ll know that I didn’t spend it in vain.

Aten opened her mouth blankly.

“I heard you are lazy… … .”

“I was born as a new human being.”

Well, that’s not exactly wrong.

* * *

At night, Aten was studying at the mansion.

Chasing after Frontier, she had only a few moments during the night to study.

I thought that I would not be able to solve the exam scope with this schedule, but now I think I can.

“… … It was real.”

Aten contrasted the textbook with the paper Frontier gave him.

… … It’s accurate without a single toe error.

Even the spelling of words that are difficult to memorize is thorough.

“Is this a possible memory for humans?”

From n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲

Of course, it does not contain all the contents of the course, but important contents are written down without omission.

That was only proof that he understood the entire content of the subject.

beep- beep- beep- beep-

Then Aten’s sage phone rang.

It was a loud and urgent sound, as if a disaster had been reported.

Aten picked up the phone.

“Yes, Mom.”

-Atten~ You worked hard today too. How are you?

Philly’s soft voice was heard.

“Yeah, just right.”

– Have you become close with your classmates?

“Um, not really.”

-Oh! Did your mom tell you to be close with your friends? Studying is good at your age, but friends are the most important,

“Just a little with Frontier.”

– Well done, my daughter! … … Not this, that, right?

Mom, your true intentions just come out.

Why can’t you hide your heart like this?

I should never do that.

– Then, did you ask?

“Dragon Heart?”

-Yes.

“No, not yet.”

-okay. Well done. If a boy is completely obsessed with you and starts flirting with you, then ask him.

… … hey hey hey

Aten thought for a moment.

I can’t ask you forever if you wait for something like that.

Philly said as if suddenly remembered.

-I heard that Constell midterm exams are coming soon.

“… … yes.”

Of course, Aten knew it wasn’t something of a ‘sudden mind’.

– Do you have a midterm exam? Actually, outsiders can see it, right? So, I want to see my daughter in action.

“Are you coming here?”

-Yeah, with your sisters.

Aten’s expression hardened.

Sisters are coming

It was because of the older sisters that I accepted this transfer to Constell.

Ha, Aten sighed and said.

“OK got it. Still, don’t come for writing. Even if I came, I couldn’t see it.”

– That’s right. Is this mom busy too? Going to see the actual machine is also a matter of taking the time to work hard.

“okay.”

And after a few more conversations, Aten hung up the phone and sighed.

Sisters are coming

In a sense, more difficult people than mothers.

I glanced at the paper I was reading a while ago.

The paper that Frontier wrote for her.

“… … let’s work hard.”

After saying those words, Aten picked up the paper.

* * *

Midterm written test.

I wrote down all the answers and left the room.

I was worried that the ones I had stored in the workshop wouldn’t be enough, but that wasn’t the case at all.

Is this the power of cheating paper?

It’s been a while since I felt like I was committing a foul in this world.

I was the fastest out of all the students in the classroom.

No one looked very strange.

Maybe I wrote it down roughly, or I put it out on a blank sheet of paper, or something like that.

It doesn’t matter what you think.

Today is the day to try out Wizardgram.

I haven’t tried it yet because the midterm exam is in front of my nose, but the writing is over.

In front of me, who hastened my steps towards the mansion,

quiver-

The car stopped.

“… … ?”

It is a very luxury sedan.

A vehicle that allows you to guess your wealth just by owning it.

The window at the rear of the vehicle opens.

“Hello-”

There was a woman who gave me a languid greeting.

White hair, red eyes.

I know that face that looks harmless, resembling a rabbit.

Philly Terst.

she came to me

“Take. I have a place to go.”

“… … .”

I opened the car door without a word.

I can’t refuse anyway

It’s the Empress’s suggestion, what should I do?

And Philly is just a difficult character to face, not a villain.

I have no reason to be scared right now.

… … It’s very close to gray though.

As I sat in the back seat, the car started.

It was as if the destination had already been set.

“My text, why didn’t you reply?”

“I thought the Empress was joking.”

I hoped it was a joke.

If the Empress suddenly says, ‘We’ll see you soon,’ of course it will.

Philly tilted her head.

“You know why I called.”

“I can’t even guess.”

“Ahahaha.”

Philly laughed out loud.

And the red eyes that were hidden in laughter slowly opened.

“lie.”

“… … .”

“You know, right?”

I was deliberately silent.

Philly doesn’t like people who are unnecessarily kind to him, or who seem blunt.

Being afraid of the position of the Empress, I can’t have a proper conversation with her.

“Dragon Heart, how do you know?”

Philly asked.

Red eyes different from Aten.

Those eyes and facial expressions that ask questions as if they are genuinely curious. and talk.

I looked straight at it and laughed.

―Lolly.

“I do not know.”

“Where have you seen it?”

“How about?”

“How else did you know that eating would make you a bad person?”

“It’s a secret.”

My answer is like no answer.

Huh, Philly chuckled.

“If you die here, don’t you wonder what will happen?”

Suddenly, her left hand was holding a dagger.

snuggle up to my neck

I saw the dagger.

Naturally, it is contained in the workshop of weaving.

[Therst Imperial Dagger]

– A dagger required for various royal ceremonies.

– As it is for ceremonial use, it has no lethality.

this is true

Well, even if it’s a blunt weapon, if you stab me in the neck, I’ll die.

Seen this way, the smiles of me and Philly are very similar.

“I wonder. What will the Empress be like?”

“… … .”

Philly’s expression hardened a little at my words.

“After creating strange events like a department store quiz to get information about Dragon Heart, wandering around secretly from the imperial family, and meeting a man who has never seen his daughter before.”

I closed my distance with Philly.

He didn’t mind the dagger that stabbed him in the neck.

Because Philly has gone that far.

“If that man dies in a car like this, if all the hard work that he did not want to show to the imperial family goes to waste, I wonder what the Empress will be like.”

“… … Frontier de Roach.”

“Yes. That’s my name. You are correct.”

“What do you want?”

Also Philly Terst.

judgment is quick

I said.

“I want to see the real dragon heart.”

“… … Well. Can I just watch it?”

Philly asked.

Oops, you made a mistake.

My smile deepened.

“After all, the Empress thinks that that alone is not enough.”

Heh, I can hear Philly’s smirk.

what did you say so

Get a bonus.

“Please choose a weapon from the Imperial Arsenal.”

In fact, it doesn’t make much sense for me to pick one weapon from this proposal.

The important thing is to ‘see’ the arsenal.

It was true that there were not enough weapons in the workshop.

But if you say it’s okay to just look, you might be suspicious.

“… … ha. I know. It’s different from my opinion. Frontier de Roach.”

Philly sighed and grunted as if it wasn’t funny.

There has never been a time when I felt so fortunate to be a Frontier.

Because of the carelessness caused by his bad reputation, he was able to bring out Philly’s mistake.

“Still, what’s good? Because I was going to take you with me from the beginning.”

“Where?”

Philly said nothing to my question.

“This car is on its way to the Imperial Palace.”
