I Became a Genius at Gigant Academy - Episode 43
43fury
When the distance between Gigant and Iron Wolf has narrowed to some extent.
“Awwwwwwwww-!”
With a howl, four iron wolves ran, two each to the left and right..
The rest ran straight ahead, but Abel was more wary of the Iron Wolves taking a detour than the group in the middle..
Therefore, Abel quickly changed his formation..
“I go left, May goes right! Don't take your eyes off these guys taking a detour!”
Although their positions had changed, the cadets were still in a diamond formation..
Kalyan at the front. Abel on the left. On the right is May. Daniel in the back. In the middle is Darin..
Considering that we barely tried to match up, we made the formation as simple as possible..
percussion-!
As Calian settled down, two Iron Wolves jumped high from the middle group..
Calian, who saw this, was not embarrassed and swung the spear sharply with both hands..
Kaang! Caen!
The two iron wolves that jumped high were hit by the spears one after another and flew sideways..
But in the meantime, the other Iron Wolves were not playing either..
In an instant, four birds rushed towards the bottom and sides of Calian..
At that time, Darin came forward..
whistling!
Darin, like Daniel, used a spear and shield as his main weapons, but now he has put down his shield and quickly thrust out the spear with both hands..
Shut up!
“Keyeng!”
Iron Wolf, who was trying to dig in to the left first, was stabbed in the back of the neck by a spear and retreated as if on fire..
Instead of attacking the Iron Wolf again, Darin immediately aimed for the legs of the opposite Iron Wolf..
Taat-!
Iron Wolf, who was halfway through the gap between Calian and May, jumped up to avoid the spear..
And May didn't miss that moment..
Kwasik!
When Iron Wolf jumped up, May plunged both swords into his head..
Iron Wolf, whose head was pierced, died without even being able to scream..
While such a one-sided atmosphere continued,.
whistling!
An iron wolf crouched down and lunged at Calian's knees at lightning speed..
It was an ability that made me think that it was a unique species that had realized its own abilities..
-Pfft!
Calian hurriedly tried to swing his spear, but it was already too late..
But there was someone who reacted in time..
-backwards!
The sword was extended diagonally as if Abel had been waiting..
Iron Wolf was unable to turn his body in time at the perfect timing..
Kwasik!
As a result, the sword entered Iron Wolf's mouth and protruded through his neck..
Thanks to this, Calian, who did not suffer any damage, said to Abel:.
“Sheesh… … . thanks.”
“Thank you, what.”
Abel smiled at Calian's first thank you and looked ahead..
If there were only six Iron Wolves right in front, there would have been a lull for a moment..
But the reality wasn't like that.
-It comes again!
crackling-.
While the six birds in front were noisily attracting attention, the ones that had jumped out of the group earlier were approaching without notice..
Abel did not take his eyes off the Iron Wolves while helping Calian..
There are two scary things about Iron Wolf..
One is that it is a rare species that lives in groups and fights based on that..
And the other thing was that the entire species was basically born with special abilities, independent of their own abilities..
This ability is commonly called stealth or ‘assimilation’..
Sussssuk-.
Abel's eyes moved quickly..
What those eyes were chasing were two iron wolves colored the same color as the grass on the prairie..
The guys, who repeatedly stepped back and moved to the side as if trying to avoid Abel's gaze, gave up hiding when Abel's gaze became persistent and they ran straight ahead..
“Oooooh!”
It was then that the group in the middle, which had once retreated, began to rush back..
Quad deuk!
Abel first slashed the side of Iron Wolf, who was aiming at Calian, with his sword..
He could have cut off his head if he wanted to, but instead, Abel quickly leaned to the left..
wow!
An iron wolf that had secretly jumped up bit the air and fell straight to the ground..
Abel did not let the guy go and lowered his sword..
Kaang!
But Iron Wolf twisted his body sharply and threw away his sword..
“lower pressure!”
At that time, Daniel's cheering voice was heard from behind..
One of them attacked Daniel instead of Abel..
However, Daniel, who did not let his guard down, easily swung his spear and pierced deep into the guy's hind leg..
“Whoop.”
Abel let out a hot breath..
It hadn't been long since the battle started, but I could feel fatigue building up in my body by the minute..
‘The same goes for other kids too..’
It will be even worse, especially in the case of Darin, whose skills are relatively low..
It was clear that no good would come from prolonging the battle..
percussion!
At that time, four iron wolves rushed at Abel at the same time..
Because the attack was so sudden, not only Calian but even Darin could not react in time..
But Abel didn't panic.
Wow-.
I squeezed out new magical energy, pushed it into my core, and came up with a clear image..
See yourself walking in the shadows.
Sigh-.
At that moment, the gigantic Gigant controlled by Abel turned blurry and expanded..
whistling!
The iron wolf's claws, which charged in with fierce force, clawed at the empty space.,
Shut up!
Sharp teeth bite the air.
The Iron Wolves later realized something was wrong, but it was already too late..
Kwasik!
A sword flew out of the darkness and pierced the head of Iron Wolf, who was biting the air..
That wasn't the end.
The sword moved quickly again, as if it had split into two, and stabbed the other Iron Wolf in the back of the neck..
“Kehehe!”
Iron Wolf fell down with a sound like the wind was being let out..
The other one was so dead that it couldn't even make a sound and was lying on the floor..
The Iron Wolves were embarrassed as they lost two of their comrades in an instant..
-die!
-Hmm!
Calian and Darin did not miss the opportunity and rushed in, each attacking the Iron Wolves with their own spears..
“Keng!”
One of them had its side torn by a spear sharply swung by Calian..
The other animal narrowly escaped fatal wounds but lost the use of one leg..
Due to the two's activities, a large gap was created between the Iron Wolves group..
Cooung-!
Abel dug in without missing the opportunity, came out of the shadows, and swung his sword sharply..
Kwasik!
Iron Wolf's thick neck was cut in half and fell to the floor..
With his other hand, he grabbed a nearby wolf and slammed it into the ground..
Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!
As the giant Iron Wolf's body hit the ground, a loud noise like a bomb exploded rang out..
Although it is often overlooked, the Gigant is a powerful weapon in itself..
This is because it has the incredible power to tear apart any ordinary monster with its bare hands..
Therefore, it was not unusual for the iron wolf to tremble and droop down after being hit..
Only then did the remaining Iron Wolves realize that they were no match and began to run away..
-run away!
-Don't miss a single one!
Of course, Abel didn't just sit there and watch..
-I'll lead the charge so everyone run to the right!
Abel, who quickly gave instructions, moved directly and drove the remaining Iron Wolves in one direction..
The rest followed at a distance and swung their weapons at the Iron Wolf running toward them..
So one by one they died..
Kwasik!
The last one belonged to Daniel..
Iron Wolf, whose intestines were torn apart by a spear, fell down without being able to walk two steps..
-It's over... … me?
Darin muttered when he saw that..
Normally, he would have scolded him and told him not to say anything sinister, but Abel, who was exhausted, just nodded..
-okay.
Abel said while looking at the plain where Iron Wolf's corpse was scattered everywhere..
-it's over.
* * *
It was an overwhelming battle.
But it wasn't that there was no damage at all..
-There appears to be damage to the left shoulder joint. It's not easy to move.
Calian said in an annoyed voice..
Since the role was to turn off aggro at the front, it was impossible to avoid damage to the aircraft..
Calian, who grumbled even more, looked at Abel for a moment and then muttered in a low voice..
-……thanks.
If it weren't for Abel's help, I would not only have damaged my shoulder joint but also lost one of my feet..
If that were the case, it would have been difficult to even move, let alone fight..
-okay.
Abel answered lightly.
‘It's unexpected.’
I thought to myself that it was surprising..
Considering his usually harsh attitude, I thought he would just move on without saying anything..
‘Or they say they didn't need any help. she thought so.’
Abel chuckled in the cockpit..
-good. Well then, let’s move around first and then rest. It's okay to rest here.
-okay.
-okay.
-huh.
-Yes!
Considering that this is a space created for practical training, no other monsters will come after smelling Iron Wolf's blood..
But apart from that, it was unpleasant to rest in a place where hideous corpses were scattered all over the place..
They moved on, exhausted, and soon settled down near a small hill that appeared..
-20Let's take a break and move.
Abel said that and stopped to one side..
Resting is resting, but he had something to check..
These were the messages that came to mind right after the battle..
[Sentences are responsive.]
The first message that came to mind was this.
The moment the message appeared, Abel felt the sphere of light being drawn into the pattern, just like the blade's tail..
It was as if he felt pain from the intense heat..
However, one thing that was different was that the color of the sphere was green, not white..
‘green and white.’
I still don't know exactly what that means
Because at most, I've only experienced two cases..
However, if I continue to experience similar things in the future, it will definitely be helpful in understanding this phenomenon..
As Abel put it all together, he checked the following message:.
[Lesser Colossus Fragment Absorbs some of Iron Wolf's abilities..]
[Leg strength increases slightly.]
[Acquired the skill ‘Fairy Tale’.]
breccia and assimilation.
Leg strength seemed to literally refer to the strength of the legs..
Actually, after the battle, I felt that my legs had gotten a little stronger..
and fairy tales.
This is a unique ability of the Iron Wolf species, the power to kill one's own existence and change to resemble the surrounding environment..
I didn't use it because I was concerned about others, but it was definitely a useful skill as I thought..
‘After only fighting one battle, the money is good..’
During this practice, there was still a lot of work left to do against the fragments of the titan..
Abel smiled because even if he had to experience something like this just once or twice, it would be a great benefit..
But the joy is short-lived.
-Abel!
Darin called Abel in an urgent voice..
-excuse me! Gigants are approaching from afar.!
