I Became a Genius at Gigant Academy - Episode 14

14fury

The first week of the academy was just fine..

Exactly, the curriculum was structured that way..

Even the elites who say they are born are essentially boys and girls who left home for the first time and entered the academy..

It was natural to give time to adapt..

But it's not like nothing happened at all..

A special class organized by the principal in an unusual way caused quite a stir..

In particular, Abel's name was often on people's lips..

It was still like that now..

“He's that great?”

“huh. According to Darin, he beat Chloe up mercilessly. And that too while riding a Miles..”

“what? That makes sense?”

The eyes of the boys who were talking were focused on Abel and Daniel, who were sparring..

The sparring between the two was so intense that it was hard to believe they were in the same grade..

The swords clashed and then moved away, persistently aiming for a gap between each other..

“Ah, but Chloe-senpai…….”

Just as a boy was watching it and was about to say something skeptical,.

Taat-!

Abel's body became a blur for a moment and then advanced at great speed, turning Daniel's chin with his elbow..

The mouths of the cadets who were watching were wide open..

They soon came to their senses and nodded with awe in their eyes..

“……It's worth taking down. That's right.”

“Same grade?”

At that time, Abel narrowed his eyebrows slightly..

‘I can hear everything.’

They may have said it quietly to others, but Abel's sensitive ears heard it clearly..

It wasn't a day or two that Abel heard a conversation about himself..

The topics of conversation were always similar..

It was a story about knocking over Chloe's plane during a special class..

As the rumor spread, it gained weight little by little, and now there is even a story going around that he knocked out a certain senior..

Abel sighed briefly and looked at Daniel and said:.

“This is the end for today?”

Abel asked Daniel.

Daniel was lying on the floor of the training ground, breathing heavily, and it was ridiculous..

However, Daniel answered Abel’s question while breathing heavily..

“Phew, Phew. no. after. Let's do it one more time.”

Then, he finally got up from his seat. It was a great thing considering that it wouldn't be strange if he fainted right away..

‘That's a talent too.’

A normal person would have given up by the 9th time they lost..

‘It's nice that I can relax properly.’

It's been quite a while since the two of them met every morning and sparred, and it all started at Daniel's request..

Daniel's physical strength was amazing, but his swordsmanship was lacking..

Currently, Abel and Daniel's record against each other is 88 wins and 11 losses..

Daniel said that although he lacks both talent and hard work, it wasn't that long ago that he learned swordsmanship in the first place..

in between.

After catching his breath, Daniel raised his sword again and charged at him..

“Goes!”

Daniel quickly closed the distance and aimed for Abel's head with his rough sword..

Taaak!

It's a very honest sword..

Abel tilted his sword at an angle and struck the attack, then dug into his arms and aimed for the guy's chin with his elbow..

“Ugh!”

Daniel hurriedly took a step back..

But I stumbled a lot because I couldn't keep my balance properly..

Abel did not miss the opportunity and caught up with Daniel, who was staggering, and pulled him by his legs..

Daniel seemed to hold on for a moment, but then he couldn't find his balance and fell over..

Cooung-!

As soon as Daniel fell, Abel held his training sword to his throat..

Despair spread across Daniel's face as he collapsed without even being able to split a few sums..

Abel withdrew his sword and said:.

“end. That's all for today.”

“Ha, one more time……!”

“Look at the time and tell. I don't even want to eat breakfast?”

At those words, Daniel looked at the clock hanging on one side of the training ground..

It was definitely a tight time to shower and then eat..

“It's true.”

“Let’s take a quick shower and eat something..”

Abel looked into space while waiting for Daniel to catch his breath and wake up..

This was because the reward for sparring with Daniel appeared before my eyes every day..

[The challenge ‘Play 100 one-on-one sparring’ has been achieved..]

[‘Lesser Mana Blessing’ is given as a reward..]

Blessing of Mana.

It was a buff that increased the magic power increase rate for a certain period of time..

‘If you're a low level student, it'll last a week even if you can't do it..’

Abel had a smile on his lips..

The more horsepower, the better..

‘If I do well, I could raise my horsepower rating within a week..’

After confirming the reward, Abel slightly shook his head and put the window away..

And when he and Daniel were trying to put their training weapons back in place..

Someone approached the two..

Red hair and slightly red eyes as well. It is proof that he was born with strong blood from the Del Chior family..

“I was wondering who was so energetic like a fool this morning, and it turned out to be you..”

Her name is Henna del Chior. And the person she spoke to was Daniel..

“uh. Did you train too??”

“You idiot. Do you do it every day? Memories are reset every day?”

As he said, the henna was also soaked with sweat..

Hena quickly turned her head and looked at Abel and said.

“Abel. If this idiot keeps bothering you, just ignore him. huh?”

“what……?”

Abel just laughed it off..

Abel, Daniel, and Henna have become quite close over the past week..

Enough to call each other by name.

The reason I was able to become friends with a girl who was half the world from me was a very simple reason..

This is because Henna also stamps his attendance at the training ground every day..

We watch each other at the training ground at similar times every day, sometimes we spar, and then we have small conversations..

‘I thought it would be difficult to talk to you because you were so picky..’

Surprisingly, after talking to him, it wasn't really like that..

‘I think I was more picky in the game..’

It was a topic worth thinking about later..

Then, Daniel interrupted the conversation again..

“Hey, hey. I don't have the strength to argue. Let’s take a quick shower and go eat something. There's not much time left.”

“uh? That's right.”

Hena looked at the clock and was surprised, as if she had lost track of time because she was so focused on training..

“Then I'll go first. See you at the restaurant.”

“uh.”

Abel and Daniel also parted ways with Henna and headed straight to the shower room..

On the way to take a shower, Daniel suddenly seemed to remember something and asked Abel a question..

“Even you don’t know what today’s special class is about?”

“special classes?”

After hearing the question, it came to mind a beat later..

Today, there is a separate 'special class' class after the regular class..

Abel shook his head and said.

“You didn't tell me what it was about..”

“yes. Still, just in case.”

During the first class, they told me about the content of the next class, but during the last class, they only said that we would do something special and did not tell me the exact contents..

So of course I don't know…….

In fact, Abel knew.

This is because it was a class that appeared as an event in the game..

Of course, he couldn't tell Daniel that, so Abel changed the subject..

“Let’s take a quick shower. If you pout, I won't be able to eat or go to class..”

“Uh, uh.”

The two quickly entered the shower room..

*       *       *

After all regular classes were over, the cadets gathered in groups of twos and threes and headed to the dormitory or somewhere else..

But these eight cadets were an exception..

“I want to rest…….”

Henna trudged next to me and muttered..

Daniel, who always talks a lot, nodded silently..

Other than that, the other 5 people were similar. Even though the classes are different, the last part of the regular class is physical training..

‘It's hard.’

Abel, who was walking slightly behind, was also tired..

If he hadn't already known what the upcoming special class was about, Abel would have joined the group of zombies in front of him and was trudging along..

Abel raised his head and looked at the people walking in front of him..

‘It's a special class.’

This class is a ‘special class’ only class..

To put it simply, a special class can be said to be a class organized by students who have excellent entrance scores or who have shown outstanding performance in class..

Special class cadets took some special classes and practical training separate from the regular curriculum..

‘In other words, it pushes the better cadets more..’

Abel gathered his thoughts and looked around..

First of all, the people walking closest were Daniel and Henna..

I still have enough friends with them to have a decent conversation..

On the other hand, the two in the front, Rian and Jun, are very close friends..

When I pass by, I just say hello.?

They are both men, and each has a close group in their own class, so they didn't have a lot to mingle and interact with during normal times..

Next, Iolin, May, and Charlotte in the middle..

Charlotte was a bit of a female version of Daniel.

He was very cheerful and friendly, so everyone was friendly with him..

I usually go with my classmates, but we talk often during special classes..

His fighting style is martial arts and he is very talented..

‘Actually, if you think about it, the most surprising thing is that May joined the special class..’

This is because, let alone her talent, May has never been particularly active..

She joined in the middle because of how she looked during class just moments ago..

Last Wednesday. When conducting a short test, the teacher said that those with good grades would be given a quick break..

May was ranked second in her class at the time, right behind Abel..

That's why I was put in a special class..

‘I won't have to worry if the eight of us here grow up well..’

In fact, all eight here are the core members of the game..

While Abel was thinking about this and that,.

They arrived in front of a building. It was my first time coming here as it was located in a corner of the academy..

The other cadets didn't even know what building this was, but Abel did..

If you think about the content of today's class, it's almost like it's decided what kind of building it is..

“You can bring me this?”

“huh.”

Lian, who was standing in the front, asked while waving her cadet ID, and Charlotte, who was standing behind, nodded..

When I brought my student ID card to the door, a soft light appeared and disappeared, and it slowly opened by itself..

“oh.”

They gave a brief exclamation and went inside..

The inside of the building was pure white. It was clean without any decoration..

The road was undivided and connected in a straight line, so I kept going without getting lost..

Just when I thought I had gone a little deeper, I saw a familiar face in front of me..

“Everyone is here.”

It was Jacqueline, the special class teacher..

His main position is a tank in the game. Her vision, the Jinn of Protection, was an outstanding ability that could only be counted among her hands..

However, the special class itself had little to do with her abilities..

This is because we do things that are slightly different from normal classes in the first place..

“Today will be a little special, as I said in class. Everyone please follow me.”

After making sure that the number of people was correct, Jacqueline turned her back and walked ahead..

Eventually, we arrived at a place where, at first glance, there was a door made of sturdy material..

Jacqueline placed the name tag around her neck there, and the door opened to the left and right with a soft glow, just like when she first entered the entrance..

“and.”

Abel and the other cadets passed the door and went inside, several of them opening their mouths in exclamation..

‘Wherever you go, everything is big..’

The interior was spacious. Although it wasn't as big as the building where the entrance ceremony was held, it was very spacious..

It was made of the same material as a door on all sides, and Abel, who once worked in a workshop, immediately recognized what it was..

‘The whole place is covered with tarterium..’

Tarterium. Like telesium, it is a metal often used in making gigants..

This was also a metal directly managed by the empire, and its effect was simple..

‘It's so strong.’

Much harder than ordinary metal.

It had no anti-magic properties so it had to be mixed with other metals, but the same was true for other metals..

There is probably no room in the mansion of an influential person that was built using so much tarterium..

This is possible because the academy receives full support from the imperial family..

The gaze that was looking inside quickly turned to the center..

In front of where Jacqueline stopped.

There was something huge covered in black cloth and several men in uniforms and robes standing there..

“You entered the academy to become Gigant Riders. Yes?”

“yes!”

“you're right.”

She turned to the cadets and said.

“Being a Gigant Rider means many things. But the most important thing of all is... … The Gigant Rider must fight against the Colossus..”

colossus.

The faces of some cadets stiffened at those words..

An astute cadet would probably have guessed what was underneath that cloth..

Instead of going on further, Jacqueline winked at the men standing on either side of the cloth..

They recognized the signal and grabbed hold of the cloth..

Sigh.-.

The cloth seemed to be made of ordinary material and was pulled with a strange sound..

Eventually, what was hidden under the cloth slowly revealed itself..

Red eyes were shining.

Silver metal covering the entire body.

It resembles a machine rather than a living organism..

A huge machine modeled after the shape of a wolf.

However, the body rises and falls with each breath. And the intense gaze showed that it was no ordinary machine..

It slowly rose up as the cloth restricting its vision disappeared..

Grumbling-.

The cold metallic sound irritated my ears..

But what was more powerful than that was the intense hostility and intimidation felt from it..

“Its name is Blade Tail.”

4Beyond the fuselage, which was slightly less than m, three tails as sharp as blades fluttered..

If that tail wags, it can destroy dozens of ordinary humans. That guy had that much power..

“This is the fragment of the titan you will have to deal with in the future..”

The moment I heard that.

[The challenge ‘Facing the Fragments of the Colossus’ has been achieved.]

[A ‘Random Skill Pack’ is given as a reward.]

A message appeared before Abel’s eyes..

But instead of checking the contents of the message, he stared at the blade tail trapped in the cage..

It is a terrifying monster that makes ordinary people tremble just by looking at it from afar..

But Abel was far from such an ordinary person..

‘Awesome……!’

Abel's eyes were shining brightly..

A metallic exterior that feels bitterly cold. Unlike the image that appears to be rigid, the movements draw graceful curves..

These were all elements that could set Abel's heart on fire..

“You guys in 2 weeks. We have to work together to take this down..”

Therefore, the first emotion that came to mind when Jacqueline said it was excitement, not fear..
