I Became a Genius at Gigant Academy - Episode 29

“Whatever you imagine, we'll show you more.”
At Abel's words, Scarlett's bright smile echoed throughout the training ground..
“ha ha ha. I really like that attitude.”
As if it wasn't just words, Scarlett patted Abel on the shoulder and added another word..
“Then I will prepare a reward that is more than you can imagine, so be sure to take it..”
“yes!”
“okay. Well then, I'll just leave. There's still work left to do.”
Scarlett said that and slowly left the training ground..
Only after confirming that she had left did Abel turn his back to look at Rufus..
“Hmm.”
Two days.
In two days, I will ride that lupus and fight the blade tail..
It would be a lie if I said I wasn't worried at all, but I wasn't that worried about the battle itself..
This is because I rode Tito just a week ago and experienced a proper battle..
‘It might be a little more difficult if it's a blade tail, though..’
Still, it can't be compared to the past battle where I was between life and death..
Rather, it was the observers who would come that day who caused the tension..
‘I decided to refrain from doing anything that stands out for the time being, but this is an exception..’
If you try not to stand out and ruin your grades, you are actually telling the truth..
Above all, simply fighting well would not arouse suspicion..
‘You can't be called a spy just because you're talented and fight well..’
What you need to be careful about is literally ‘suspicious’ behavior..
It's like using in-game knowledge to gain an advantage that no one knows about..
Isn’t it easy to get suspicious all of a sudden?.
For the time being, I was planning to refrain from taking such advantage overtly..
For the time being.
“good.”
Abel gathered his thoughts and walked closer to Rufus..
A considerable amount of time had already passed since Scarlett's unexpected visit..
Since today wasn't the only day, I had to finish this and go back. I have to wake up early and train tomorrow too..
Abel approached Rufus, placed his hand on the cold metal, and said:.
“After two days, you will be able to run around properly, not move like you did today..”
The words were meant for Rufus, but there was no reply..
Lupus' consciousness would have subsided as the operation was terminated..
After Abel finished saying that, he turned around..

Standing on one side of the large playground, Abel looked up blankly at the sky..
The sky was blue again today.
“Abel!”
At that time, Daniel came running calling Abel’s name..
I had just finished my physical training and was quite tired, but Daniel was in good spirits..
Abel lowered his head and asked.
“How are you always so energetic??”
“huh? Because I finished earlier today than usual!”
“I asked that... … no. let's go.”
Abel felt like he would lose strength if he continued talking, so he took the first step..
Then Daniel followed right next to me and opened his mouth..
“I'll go right away?”
“That's how it should be. I said it was okay to come early and inspect the battlefield with Gigant..”
“that's right. Ah, May! Come on!”
While talking, Daniel raised his hand and shouted..
May, who was staring blankly into space on one side, flinched at Daniel's shout..
Daniel quickly ran over and forcibly dragged May away..
Abel still wasn't that close to May, but there was no need to worry about awkwardness..
“So, you just swung a wooden sword all day yesterday? This is better…….”
Because Daniel talked about the three people's share by himself..
When I feel the urge to shut up my non-stop talking mouth..
“Abel! Daniel!”
Henna came running with her red hair flying. As she got closer, she noticed May and said her hello to her too..
“may! You were there too!”
“huh…….”
“You look more energetic today!”
“huh…….”
Of course, her arrival didn't make things any better..
Henna wasn't as talkative as Daniel, but he was quite talkative..
May's face becoming increasingly paler may have something to do with it..
Abel walked as fast as he could. Fortunately, the place where today's practice is taking place is not far away..
‘I guess it's there.’
For special classes, the classroom changes depending on the content of the class that day..
In today's case, it was the same place where the last mock battle was held..
“You came early..”
As we approached, Jacqueline, who was in charge of the special class, greeted Abel and the other cadets..
It seemed like the other cadets hadn't arrived yet..
Abel responded with a polite bow..
“yes. I wanted to come in advance and check the battlefield with Gigant..”
“That's a great attitude. There are engineers over there inspecting Gigant, so go check it out..”
“yes.”
“All right!”
“yes!”
Abel answered and walked away with the other cadets..
There was no need to worry about where Gigant was..
The sight of eight Miles-class Gigants lying side by side was visible even from a great distance..
As I got closer, I saw engineers around Gigant..
During classes, the Gigants only come out after inspection in the hangar, so it was my first time seeing them in person..
“From here, let’s check each Gigant..”
“okay.”
“huh.”
Of the four, the only ones with personal gigants were Abel and Henna..
However, the others also had to check the condition of the Gigant they were going to use today, so they walked quickly..
Abel did as Abel did and went to where Rufus was lying..
His Gigant was equipped with weapons given to him by Scarlett, so there was no need to wander around..
“hello.”
Abel walked to where Rufus was and first greeted the engineers who were inspecting the aircraft..
“Are you here to check the aircraft??”
“yes. Can I hear the story separately??”
“All right. wait a minute.”
Since it is common to receive a brief briefing on the condition of a Gigant before boarding it, the engineer immediately called in someone else..
Probably bringing in an assistant engineer..
Usually the explanation is the job of the assistant..
Abel, who was waiting without thinking, soon heard the sound of someone approaching quickly..
Abel turned his head towards him and immediately opened his eyes wide..
The person running was a woman with blue hair and thick glasses, and coincidentally, she felt quite familiar..
‘No, it might look similar..’
Abel said to the assistant engineer who rushed over to make sure..
“hello. My name is Abel..”
“Ah, yes, yes! My name is Temarin! You are the master of lupus, right??”
“That's right.”
Abel's eyes twinkled as he answered the question..
Temarin. It was exactly the name Abel expected..
‘I never thought we'd meet already.’
The reason Abel was surprised to see Temarin was because she was one of the best engineers in the game..
To some extent, it was on par with 'Vulcanus' in just a few years..
‘I tried to look it up later when I had time, it worked out..’
Although Abel already had a relationship with Vulcan, he still needed to build a relationship with Temarin..
This was because Vulcan and Temarin had different areas of expertise..
Vulcan, so to speak, specialized in ‘production’. I guess you could say it’s blacksmith style..
On the other hand, Temarin was closer to the inventor position..
He was truly a genius when it came to inventing new equipment and improving existing equipment..
“Um, Mr. Abel? May I give you a report??”
Abel came to his senses when he heard Temarin's voice. With her in front of her, she was so lost in her thoughts..
“Oh, sorry. Please take a look.”
“yes!”
Temarin bravely explained the status of Lupus' check-up..
There was nothing particularly special about the report. I've only done class content and personal training and haven't done any combat yet..
“That is all.”
“thank you.”
After answering that, Abel thought for a moment and then opened his mouth..
“Temarin.”
“yes?”
Temarin, who was about to turn around, stopped hesitantly at Abel's call..
Abel said to her.
“Looking at it personally, is there anything that could be improved??”
“Dog, personally.?”
Temarin looked around in surprise..
He seemed afraid that other engineers would hear..
It wasn't a strange reaction. Temarin is an assistant engineer after all. Of course, it seemed like her timid personality played a part as well..
“yes. Oh, of course, you don’t have to say anything if you’re uncomfortable..”
Abel also had no intention of forcing anything, so he said that and took a step back..
Temarin's mouth stuttered, but then he seemed to have mustered up the courage to speak..
“actually… … There is something.”
“Is that so?”
“yes. However, it is difficult to explain briefly..”
Abel answered that question without hesitation..
“Then, can you meet separately later and talk about it??”
“Ta, separately.?”
“yes. I have a personal training center. I understand that the engineers' workshop is right next door..”
Temarin blushed and hesitated at Abel's suggestion, but then nodded..
“All right.”
Abel ignored it and even decided on the exact date and time on the spot..
Since he couldn't keep holding on, Abel let Temarin go and saw Rufus with his own eyes..
Meanwhile, other cadets arrived one after another.
After confirming that Jun and Lian had arrived, Abel walked again and spoke loudly..
“Everyone gather together!”
At his shout, all the cadets walked towards Abel without saying a word..
Abel made eye contact with each person and then opened his mouth..
“There are about 30 minutes left, so let's check our plan one more time. Everyone remembers the content?”
“huh.”
“okay.”
Since he had already planned out how he would fight, Abel simply reminded him of the details..
“The most important thing during battle is formation. The blade's tail is very agile, and the tail moves very freely, so if you flick it,…….”
The cadets listened to Abel's story even though they already knew it..
It was natural.
If you show any shortcomings in this class, it will be your own loss..
Even May, although her eyes were half-asleep, stayed awake and listened to Abel's story until the end..
“Now, anyone who has any questions??”
After finishing his explanation, Abel turned to everyone and asked a question, but there was no separate answer..
Abel nodded..
“good. Then let's make no mistakes and do it perfectly..”
“Now, class begins! Everyone gather together!”
Just then, as soon as Abel finished speaking, Jacqueline clapped her hands and announced the start of class..
Abel and the cadets quickly lined up in front of Jacqueline..
“The professors who will observe today’s class will be arriving soon. When I give the signal, each person must go and stand in front of the Gigant..”
“yes-!”
Jacqueline smiled satisfied with the cadets' answers and looked to one side..
Soon after, people who appeared to be professors were seen walking from the direction Jacqueline was looking at..
Among them was Scarlett, Abel's supporter..
Scarlett, who was chatting with other professors, spotted Abel and smiled..
“Everyone in front of their aircraft!”
Jacqueline gave orders to the cadets as the professors got closer..
At that command, everyone walked towards their Gigant..
Abel also walked neither slowly nor quickly and stood next to Rufus' cockpit..
When you're ready to get into the cockpit at any time.
-Oooooh!
With a sharp cry, the blade tail was transported behind bars..
Abel looked in that direction without thinking, then his face hardened..
Exciting-.
Suddenly, a feeling of heat was rising from my chest..
