The Academy’s Weapon Replicator

“I told you. I don't know how to activate the rune.”

Elysia shook her head.

“That's a lie. When you said the password ‘Menosorpo,’ I felt a different rune unfold than mine. I know because I drew the rune myself. At that moment, two runes definitely unfolded.”

“…….”

“That was just an excuse, right? To keep me here. But that makes it even stranger. You could activate the rune, yet you kept me here. And you even protected me with that black liquid. Things would have been much easier without me.”

Elysia initially thought Frondier would kill her. That's why she had been brought to this remote location, to prevent her escape. Once the rune was complete, Frondier would dispose of her like a used pawn.

But that didn't happen. Frondier had safely protected Elysia.

Then why was Elysia kept here? She had only been a hindrance in battle.

“You've become quite talkative, Elysia.”
