Academy’s Weapon Replicator

Chapter 156 Blasphemy (4)

The armies of Hela could no longer hold back the gods.

Although it was said to be better than Hestia due to the advantage of having a large number of troops, it was only a matter of delaying things for a little longer.

Kuuung─!

“Ugh… … !”

Finally, one of Hela’s Naglfar sank.

The ship floating in the air split in half and slowly collapsed, and the soldiers above it knelt down and bowed their heads as if they were sharing its life. They did not move at all even as they fell due to the slope.

“Okay, gods, head to Bifrost!”

Odin’s cry.

With the fall of one of the Naglfar, a wide path to Bifrost was opened.

When Hela took up the lamp again,

pop!

“Whoa!”

The lamp suddenly broke.

A flying stone pierced the center.

“Baldur!”

When I confirmed his identity, it was Baldur, and he quickly flew towards Hela.

“I should have killed you, Hela!!”

“Ha! Then I would be happy too, you arrogant one!”

Hela cried out.

Baldur raised his sword and swung it down. The new model was approaching at high speed.

Hela, who was naturally good at magic but physically weak, had no way to deal with Baldur’s attacks that came close.

‘… … Tsk, I guess I should have gotten my hopes up again.’

Hela clicked her tongue inwardly.

I came here because of Belphegor.

This was Loki’s message.

Loki said that only she can stop Odin.

‘I believed in the devil,’

Baldur appeared within arm’s reach, interrupting Hela’s thoughts.

and,

Bam!

“… … ?”

Baldur fell down.

On top of that, crushed by a giant foot.

Hela slowly raised her head.

“……you.”

[Hella.]

A huge wolf with thick white fur.

Fenrir.

He trampled Baldur.

Pick.

Then he threw it with his front paws as if he was sweeping away a load.

“

Of course, Baldur doesn’t die from that. He quickly gets up and looks at Fenrir with glaring eyes.

“Baldur!”

But there was a voice that stopped him.

“Go to Bifrost!”

“… …! Lord Odin!”

“Stop playing with the thoughts of humans any longer! You have already delayed too much time.”

“But then what are we going to do with that wolf and Hela?”

Instead of answering, Odin said.

Thud─

He held a spear in his right hand.

“I’ll take care of it.”

“……All right.”

Baldur saw that sight and quickly moved towards Bifrost.

[Is it Gungnir?]

Pellir glared at the window.

Once Hela and Fenrir saw Gungnir, they gave up on trying to stop the other gods.

But instead, he stopped Odin. This is actually the best option.

[Hela. Stay behind me.]

“If you suddenly show up and think you’re going to act like my older brother.”

[What are you talking about?]

The wolf’s mouth snarled and he lowered his stance greatly. The power was transferred to his hind legs. The deck of the Naglfar cracked.

[I told you not to disturb me.]

Crunch!

Fenrir kicked his foot and shot out with all his might.

Thanks to that.

“… … That idiot.”

Another Naglfar has broken.

* * *

“… … .”

Atlas, Elodie’s house.

May was sitting blankly on the bed.

In charge of housekeeping.

May didn’t particularly like or dislike being told to stay home.

May is neither human, demon, nor god.

All of that is outside the scope. There is no reason to be sad or happy about anyone living or dying.

so.

“……I’m bored.”

May muttered to herself.

Inside the house, there was no one. The silence was so heavy.

It’s hard to believe that there’s a war going on somewhere right now.

Sigh.

May stood up absentmindedly.

And he walked around the room. The child’s footsteps made small sounds, shaking the silence little by little.

But when I got to the front door,

“……ah.”

Return to your seat again.

May has been repeating this movement for a while now.

Repeated behavior of trying to go out, but then going back without understanding why.

Why would you want to go out? For something that has nothing to do with anything.

May is now looking for a reason to leave.

“What do I want to do?”

May looked out the window.

I remember the appearance of the frontier.

Frondior becomes serious as if he heard some urgent news.

I said I was going back to the continent of Palind.

Before leaving, Frondier said to May.

“May. Stay home for the time being. Until I get back.”

“… … Want to see the house?”

“Yeah. Can you do it?”

“huh.”

What’s so difficult about that?

May nodded absentmindedly.

But before he left, Frondier also said this.

“……may.”

“huh?”

“If you decide to do something yourself.”

Frontier smiled softly.

“You can do that.”

“… … Other than looking at the house?”

“Yeah. Don’t look at houses.”

May thought for a moment and nodded. Seeing that, Frondia seemed relieved and left.

It was not a difficult story.

While looking at houses, if you feel like doing something, you can do it. It’s a really free direction.

But, so.

“… … What do you want to do? Me.”

If you don’t want to do anything, just stay still.

Human, demon, god. It doesn’t matter who lives or dies, it’s all good.

If you wait like this, someday you will get Frondia or Elodie.

“……ah.”

There, May looked out the window.

What if they don’t come?

What if Frontier, Elodie, and the others don’t come?

“Then, I.”

So does that change anything?

I don’t care what happens to humans.

Frontier and Elodie are probably human.

“……no.”

May stood up.

His expression was innocent, but his eyes became clear.

I knew what I wanted.

“That doesn’t matter to me.”

──We have to save them.

When May thought about it.

Thud─!

May raised her head as if struck by lightning.

The large eyes opened even wider, and the gaze looking up sparkled as if it contained something.

and.

“……let’s go.”

May muttered, her voice slightly changed.

* * *

Ajax and Glaucus landed on the ground before Pierot.

“Pierrot, did you do it right?”

“It fell from the head, but it didn’t just stick to the ground, right?”

The barrier is far away so it’s hard to see here.

However, it is visible that the gods who have reached the front of the wall cannot go any further.

“Okay, that looks good!”

“Let’s go too!”

The two ran across the ground.

Lacking flight magic, they targeted the lesser gods.

Meanwhile, in the air, the newly joined Basileo spread his hands.

Reservation number 3

Chain lightning

Lightning strikes in an instant, striking the gods.

Phage crackle!

“……uh.”

It was a direct hit, but no one fell and everyone was fine.

The struck gods looked at Basileo in the air.

I just made you angry for no reason.

“Crazy, this isn’t working?”

It’s one of the most destructive magics that Basileo has, but it only ends up being a bit of a pain in the ass.

“Student over there!”

The voice heard at that moment.

Basileo looked up and saw a woman with ten magical wings spread out looking at him.

“yes yes?”

“Don’t use reservations like bullets!”

……shot?

“I’m sorry, I don’t know what you’re talking about!”

“Reservation means leaving a slot open in your available mana for that spell to go into! Whether you have the reserved spell or use it, the slot will always remain! If you use it and it disappears, the effect of the reservation is halved!”

“… … !”

Basileo opened his eyes wide.

He quickly joined Jane’s side.

“So, just like the reservation keeps the last button left, does that mean that after pressing the button, instead of starting from the beginning, you start from the middle? If you keep leaving the space empty, there is no need to create a new space?”

“Oh, you understand quickly?”

Jane laughed.

With her ten fingers fully extended, she is a sort of autonomous cannon. Ten different types of destructive magic are unleashed upon the appropriate situation and the appropriate opponent, and after unleashing them, she prepares the next magic with a spell and a chant. In the meantime, of course, other cannons are bombarding.

“Just now, chain lightning, let’s unleash the magic!”

“Oh, I understand!”

Basileo faithfully initiated the chain lightning spell.

“Just there! Instead of drawing the mana circuit as a curve, why don’t you just extend it diagonally? If you know the concept of three-dimensional magic, why is the method so classical?”

“… … Huh! So that’s true!”

“If you’re just aiming for completion, then that’s fine, but the more useless circuits you add, the worse the fuel efficiency becomes! You use more mana, but the effects are all the same. Do you want to use that kind of magic?”

“No! I’ll fix it!”

“Okay! Then shoot!”

Basileo completed his ritual and fired a chain lightning bolt.

Phage, phage, phage!!

“Kwaaak!”

This time it worked. The gods screamed in pain, and some fell down as if they had lost consciousness for a moment.

“Oh, oh!”

“Look, the power increases too, right?”

“How can this be? To use strong magic, you need to know strong magic. Isn’t that the basic rule? I thought it was impossible to increase the power of magic itself!”

“That’s when you create 100% of that magic! Each magic has its own upper limit. And it also has its own lower limit. Isn’t it weirder to think that the upper and lower limits are the same?”

“… … !”

Basileo opens his mouth as if shocked by Jane’s words. His eyes sparkle.

Jane said, scratching the ball.

“But it feels like I’m talking to an old person. I thought everyone already knew this kind of stuff.”

“What else do I have to learn?”

“Chain lightning is good, but isn’t there a stronger magic?”

Basileo is troubled by this.

He spoke cautiously.

“That, it hasn’t been used in actual combat yet, but ‘Hellfire’… … .”

“Can you use Hellfire?!”

This time Jane’s eyes sparkled.

“Ah, it is only possible to manifest it.”

“Great! Let’s try it right now!”

Then Basileus began to open the gates.

An eerie flame that will be born soon.

Jane nodded, looking at the overflowing energy.

“Ahem. Indeed, I couldn’t attach ‘impact’.”

“Yes, it’s only ‘launch’… … But the hellfire is too slow for the opponent to hit with the launch.”

“are you okay.”

One of Jane’s ten magic balls went out.

“I can do it.”

“Ah yes?”

Jane’s right hand stretched out.

She started mana-interfering with the already created hellfire formula.

“The coordinates for the shot must already be set during the technique. Try practicing the same technique diagonally, or upside down, or switching left and right.”

“Will the magic work if I do that?”

“Do you know what the correct position for a soccer ball should be?”

“… … No, I don’t know.”

“I don’t know either.”

At that point Jane’s intervention was complete.

“Is it any different if it’s magic?”

“… … !”

Basileo, whose eyes sparkle again.

and,

Hwaruk─!

The flames spread across the host of gods.

Hellfire clung to their bodies.

Basileo stared blankly at the sight.

Jane said, putting her hand on her waist.

“All the tricks you know, they weren’t created that way from the beginning. So think freely. You don’t have to be so careful with tricks. Just like a soccer ball is still a soccer ball no matter how it rolls.”

Then Basileo saw Jane.

He spoke with a resolute determination.

“Can I call you master?”

That determination flowed from his voice and was fully conveyed to Jane’s ears.

As if responding to that sentiment, Jane looked at Basileo and said.

“… … Should I just call you teacher?”

His expression wasn’t very good.
