I Became a Genius at Gigant Academy - Episode 30
30fury
I didn't know that the rising heat would subside easily..
At that time, Jacqueline shouted loudly..
“all aboard!”
At those words, the waiting cadets quickly got into the cockpit..
Abel was no exception..
Although the scorching heat was still bothering him, he climbed into the cockpit and placed his hands on his core..
Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu-!
As magical power was raised and pushed into the core, thick armor moved and enveloped the cockpit..
And then Rufus opened his eyes in response to the magic power..
It was around that time that the unidentifiable heat suddenly subsided..
“Whoa whoa.”
Abel let out a hot breath..
Why did the heat suddenly surge? And I didn't know why it sank..
‘Fragment of the Colossus. I'm sure it has something to do with that blade's tail..’
It's not that there isn't anything to point out, but I didn't have time to think about it right now..
Because there were more than one eye to see, and there was work to be done..
Abel gathered his scattered concentration and began to coordinate with Lupus..
From a flesh-and-blood body to a gigantic body made of metal.
The mind expanded instantly through the core..
And at some point. Abel was looking outward through Rufus' eyes..
“lupus.”
-master. Is today the day??
Rufus woke up and asked a question about Abel's call..
Abel slowly got up and answered..
“okay.”
Cooung-!
Two thick legs stand on the ground.
Abel, who was the first to stand upright, spoke with a bright smile..
“Today is finally my first real meeting with you..”
The unidentified heat and the eyes of numerous observers were all buried in the excitement of the coming battle..
As I looked around, it felt like I was standing in the ring of an underground fighting arena for the first time in a long time..
If you leave your body to the excitement like this, you will definitely be able to perform incomparably better than before..
“Phew.”
But Abel took a deep breath and calmed his excitement..
It's the same as a battle with an audience, but the place where he stands now is not a place where he is highly evaluated simply for fighting well alone..
If I wanted that, I would have joined a mercenary group rather than the academy..
Thump, thump-!
While Abel was calming down, the other cadets also took turns raising their Gigant..
The speed was very fast, perhaps because only the most outstanding of all cadets gathered together..
Abel, who was the leader, spoke loudly..
-Everyone stand in formation!
Boom, boom-!
At Abel's command, everyone moved according to the originally decided formation..
On the left is Abel, holding a sword and shield, and on the left is Daniel, holding a spear and shield. On the right stands Lian holding a huge shield..
Behind them, Mei holding two swords and Iolin holding one sword. And then Jun stood up.
The ones standing last were Henna holding a magic gun and Charlotte with bare hands but wearing artifacts on both arms..
After checking the formation, Abel opened his mouth again..
-Power is ready..
In response to Abel's report, Jacqueline spoke while using a voice amplification artifact..
“3The battle begins in a minute..”
With those words, Jacqueline retreated far away and a heavy silence fell on the simulated battlefield..
Everyone must be nervous..
The good news was that no one was frozen at all, perhaps because they had all experienced combat at the Wall of Glory before..
‘I don't have to say anything else.’
After observing the atmosphere, Abel felt relieved and turned his gaze forward..
No one is more nervous than normal, so there is no need to do anything..
If the operation is carried out properly, there will be no major problems even if one or two people make a mistake..
‘What matters is the enemy.’
Abel narrowed his eyes..
The blade tail trapped in the cage was looking this way with its characteristic blade-like tail raised..
In the red eyes of the blade's tail, there was a sense of intimidation that made those who encountered it feel intimidated..
Abel thought to himself..
‘It's really huge..’
The height of the blade tail is slightly less than 4 m..
It had the shape of a four-legged wolf, so if it stood up straight, it would be bigger than Miles, which is about 6 meters tall..
-Are the fragments of the giant called Blade Tail strong??
Abel gave a simple answer to Rufus’ sudden question..
“okay. I'm strong.”
The blade's tail is one of the most powerful fragments of the giant..
The fragments encountered at the Wall of Glory were quite threatening, but that was due to the enormous volume and environment rather than because each individual was strong..
Because we were attacked suddenly, we had no mediocre weapons, and we were all riding the Tito class, which is one level lower than Miles..
-Then it's strange. Honestly, aren't most of the people standing over there just inexperienced warriors? But having them face strong enemies? According to your explanation, don't they all have some level of status??
Rufus fired out a series of questions..
It wasn't that strange..
Because Rufus was quite curious..
Whenever I boarded the Gigant like this, I would always ask endless questions..
Normally, he would have given a sincere answer, but given the circumstances, Abel answered simply..
“okay. Otherwise you won't survive.”
-You can't survive? You humans don't seem that weak either..
“It looks like that from here. But it's not that easy out there.”
……And in a few years, even the high-walled capital of the empire would be threatened..
Abel swallowed his words and said something else..
“Looks like it's about to start. If you have any more questions, I'll answer later..”
-i get it.
Rufus immediately became quiet at Abel's words. And after about a minute.
Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu-!
The protective shield surrounding the iron bars disappeared along with a strong wave of magical power..
The battle has begun.
* * *
The cadets here are all brilliantly talented..
Even if it hasn't fully blossomed yet, the talent is not hidden like an awl in a pocket..
Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!
Even when the blade's tail broke through the cage blocking them, the cadets held their formation firmly..
Although they may have been nervous, no one was scared and backed down..
Abel felt satisfied and calmly gave instructions..
-henna.
-huh!
Upon hearing Abel's call, Henna immediately infused magical energy into the magic gun mounted on her shoulder..
Huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu-.
Kwaang-!
A beam of light shot out from the magic gun along with a roar..
“Hoo.”
“indeed. Del Chior's talent shines again this time..”
The power and speed were so incredible that it was from a freshman, and most of the professors who were observing were amazed..
percussion!
But despite that admiration, the blade's tail easily dodged the beam of light..
It was a natural result since the magic gun was used honestly without any threats or checks..
Of course, no one blamed henna for that..
Because it was Abel who took the lead and gave such command..
“Hmm. No matter how great a weapon is, it is of no use if it is not handled properly..”
“Talent in handling gigants does not necessarily translate into talent in strategy..”
Some impatient professors criticized Abel based on just one move..
But the discerning professors remained silent with serene faces..
And it was the same with Abel..
This is because the attack a moment ago was not intended to cause damage in the first place..
Churrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr-!
Instead of walking forward as fast as before, the blade tail raised its tail tightly, showing signs of caution..
That was exactly the reaction Abel wanted..
‘good.’
everyone would have seen it.
The blade's tail stopped showing signs of caution after being hit by a single blast from the magic gun..
If I hadn't felt in danger, I wouldn't have reacted like that..
The effect was clear.
Bringing down the image of a bladed tail that would have been exaggerated in the minds of other cadets into reality..
Of course, this was just the beginning.
“hook.”
Abel let out a hot breath..
While Henna was firing a magic gun and Blade Tails was watching and stopping, he wasn't just playing around..
To be precise, 'overflow' was used immediately after giving the instruction..
Thanks to this, Abel’s body was boiling as if it would explode at any moment..
Abel held on to his limit and then leapt forward without any warning..
Kwaang-!
At the same time as there was a loud noise, Rufus rushed forward as if being shot..
Blade Tail, who had been on alert for a while, nimbly dodged to the left to avoid Rufus..
However, Abel, who used the Crown of the Great Wise Man, twisted his body and swung his sword as if he had predicted this..
Kwa-ga-ga-ga-ga-ga-ga-ga-ga-ga-ga-ga-ga-gak!
A noise like a metal plate being torn rang out..
The sword Abel swung cut into the side of the blade's tail..
Blade Tail reflexively swung its tail while opening its mouth wide in pain as its skin was torn..
Kwasik!
The sharp tail pierced Rufus' shoulder..
Blade Tail showed a happy expression for a moment, probably because he thought he was getting revenge, but as it turned out, Abel was the same way..
Abel in the cockpit shouted with a grin..
-now!
Shut up!
Abel put down his shield and grabbed his tail..
The blade tail noticed something strange later and tried to pull it out, but it wouldn't budge..
Huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!
And the team members did not miss the opportunity created by Abel..
Daniel was the first to throw away his shield and swing his spear as hard as he could..
Quad deud deuk!
The spear pierced one foot of the blade's tail and dug straight into the solid ground..
Then, Mei, who had suddenly jumped high, fell from the air and grazed the back of the blade tail..
-Wooooow!
The blade's tail howled in pain at the flowing strike..
Most of the people on the Gigant are probably very flushed by now..
Abel felt the heightened atmosphere and shouted loudly again..
-Everyone back! rian!
Not everyone reacted quickly to the first words..
It was an expected situation. When you're in a situation where you're in the thick of it, telling yourself to back off won't make sense right away..
That's why Abel expected that and called Ryan..
Cooung!
Lian, who had been waiting behind him the whole time, came running with a huge shield in front of him..
When Abel saw that, he immediately pulled his tail..
It was immediately afterward that the blade's tail, which had been quiet the whole time, began to move after it howled in pain..
Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!
An ear-piercing roar rang out..
And the results of that roar were amazing..
Lian, who had been running energetically, was thrown in the opposite direction, and the shield he was holding was half broken..
Abel was also in bad condition..
-I can't use my left arm anymore.
The left shoulder, where the tail was stuck, was almost completely shattered. It was barely hanging on..
The atmosphere suddenly cooled down as if cold water had been poured on it..
But the battle has only just begun.
Charrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr-.
The blade tail suddenly grew into two tails and looked straight at Abel while gently waving..
‘Looks like a wolf, but acts like a fox.’
Maybe that's why the name doesn't have the word wolf in it..
In the first place, the fragments of the giant themselves are different from ordinary life forms..
Abel shouted without taking his eyes off the blade tail..
-Ryan! are you okay?
-uh!
Fortunately, Lian didn't seem to have any major damage except for his dented shield..
Since he had an extra shield attached to his back with this situation in mind from the beginning, the only real damage was to one of Abel's arms..
Abel took a moment to reflect on the situation just now..
When the situation turned unfavorable, the blade tail intentionally took more attacks to catch the enemy off guard..
That's why there weren't many fatal wounds..
And Abel saw it through from the beginning and blocked his surprise attack with minimal damage..
If they had warned me sooner, I could have avoided any damage, but I didn't do that on purpose..
Because this is not a fight that Abel fights alone..
‘I guess this brought everyone to their senses..’
Now, among those present, no one would let down their guard, and no one would be overly excited..
In other words, the environment has been created to fully demonstrate this side's power..
Abel smiled..
A truly perfect stage was unfolding before my eyes..
