I Became a Genius at Gigant Academy - Episode 47

47fury

Everyone who was sleeping opened their eyes at the sound of the ground shaking..

Your nerves must have been sharp from the continuous battle, so even if you were resting in a safe base, you wouldn't have been able to sleep at ease..

It hadn't been long since I fell asleep to begin with..

Abel checked the time..

‘It's been about 10 minutes now.’

This is quite a bit of room..

Abel briefly gathered his thoughts and opened his mouth..

“I'll tell you now that everyone is awake. I have a suggestion.”

“suddenly?”

Daniel, who was the first to wake up, asked with a puzzled expression..

Abel nodded..

“huh. This is what I thought after coming to this base..”

“What?”

Calian, who was lying down with his eyes open, slowly raised his upper body and asked a question..

Abel answered briefly:.

“How about collaborating with another group??”

“Another group? Cooperation?”

“huh. As I came in, I could see that the base was too large for just one person to stay. So I thought that several groups could rest at once..”

Abel continued talking..

“So, after thinking that another group might come, I suddenly wondered what it would be like to cooperate..”

“little… … It’s out of the blue..”

Calian spoke in an uneasy tone, but Abel didn't care..

“Honestly, the road to get here wasn't that easy.?”

I couldn't deny everything that was said..

Although no one was fatally injured, it did not mean that there were no dangerous moments..

“Anyway, I wonder if there’s any need to talk about it already..”

But Kalian still responded in a crooked manner, as if he didn't like it..

Instead of giving the same crooked answer, Abel spoke calmly..

“Then, how about we go together for a day? The more people there are, the more rest you can get. You can only rest for two hours here right now..”

When the physical aspect was pointed out, Kalian had no choice but to keep his mouth shut..

‘As we all gain more experience, we will have more leeway, but we are not at the stage to discuss that right now..’

With that in mind, Abel quietly waited for the answer without prompting..

As time passed, Kalian opened his mouth..

“okay. Well, just one day first.”

“good. I agree too.”

“me too.”

“Then me too…….”

After Kalyan agreed, others only then expressed their opinions..

It was unanimously in favor..

Abel finally got up from his seat..

“Well then, let me go out now..”

“now?”

“huh. The vibration sound from earlier sounded exactly like the sound of a Gigant moving..”

“Ah, I see. Should I go too??”

“are you okay. It's not certain that it came.”

Abel dissuaded Daniel's proposal and stood up..

As I adjusted my collar and came out, I could see Gigant standing not far away..

The total number is five. It was all Miles..

As Abel expected, another group arrived..

Perhaps due to a fierce battle, Gigant's condition was not very good..

‘Looking at the situation, I think I'm going to go to Repair High School..’

Abel headed straight there..

Abel, who arrived in Surigo shortly after, found people just getting off the Gigant..

Among them, there were some who were familiar with Abel..

Blazing red hair.

It was henna.

“henna!”

“huh? Abel?”

Hena turned her head at Abel's call and opened her eyes wide in surprise..

“why are you here?”

“Why are you here? We also came here to rest.”

“Ah, it was somehow wide..”

Henna nodded in understanding at Abel’s words..

Henna asked Abel.

“But why did you come out instead of resting? I want to say hello to this sister.?”

Henna said, raising her chin with an arrogant expression. It was a prank that we often played as our friendship deepened..

Abel smiled and answered.

“What are you doing? The height is also small.”

“what?!”

Henna was shocked by the sudden verbal abuse, but Abel continued talking without paying attention..

“Since I don't have much time, I'll get to the point first. How about hanging out together for a while??”

Henna, who was about to say something harsh, closed her mouth and narrowed her eyes at Abel's suggestion..

“……together?”

“huh. Your group and our group. Oh, is there a separate leader??”

“That's not true, but whatever decision we make, we need to discuss it. But why companionship? Is there any problem??”

“You must have felt it too, right? The battle is harder than I thought.”

Abel said, pointing to the Henna Gigant with his chin..

Her and her group's Gigant was in even worse condition than Abel's..

Henna hesitated for a moment and then answered honestly..

“It was a bit difficult. So, let’s go together.?”

“huh. Whether you have five or ten, the enemies you'll have to deal with will be the same. There was no mention of not cooperating with the regulations..”

“That's it though…….”

“I don't mean we should hang out together for days. If we cooperate appropriately and it is not as dangerous as expected, we can split up..”

In the first place, the proposal was not made with the intention of having Abel accompany him all the time..

This is because they know that the Academy will intervene if the situation becomes serious anyway..

‘They probably don't intervene because they think it's still within their control..’

But I won't think about that for more than two days..

Henna thought for a moment and then opened her mouth..

“Let's talk about it. Oh, you guys have a few hours left.?”

“Now about an hour and 40 minutes?”

“There isn't much left. Which side is the tent??”

After briefly informing us of the location, Abel said goodbye to Henna and returned to the tent..

‘I'll probably take the offer.’

At first glance, there was no one in Henna Joe who seemed likely to have a particularly unique opinion..

I would say it's a very good combination..

Since Henna seemed positive about the offer, there was a high probability that it would be accepted..

‘The important thing is to find the ruins by tomorrow..’

First of all, once Henna accepts the offer, things become much easier..

Even though it is not normal to approach the ruins, ten Milles-class Gigants are full of power..

Abel entered the tent, organizing the information in his head..

“what happened?”

As soon as I entered, Daniel asked me a question..

“It turned out that he came. He said it was Joe..”

“Henna? Then it must be class C.?”

“huh. They made a suggestion and discussed it before coming back and telling me..”

Abel said that and sat down on the bed..

He took a short nap and then got up quickly to eat..

When there were about 20 minutes left before leaving,.

“Abel.”

Henna is here.

As soon as I got out, Henna opened her mouth..

“proposal. I'll accept it.”

“That's good. When are you leaving??”

“I have to leave with you guys. Fortunately, only the exterior of the Gigant was damaged, so I think I can go there just in time..”

“I'm glad.”

It was good news because I was prepared to wait for a short period of time..

“Then let's meet at the front..”

“huh.”

Since we were going to meet again when we got on the Gigant anyway, Abel talked briefly and went inside..

He also told Daniel and others that Henna had accepted the offer..

Not long after, they finished preparing and left the barracks. On their way to board the Gigant, they encountered Henna again..

It wasn't a very leisurely situation, so they only exchanged brief greetings and immediately boarded the Gigant..

Cooung-!

So Abel and Henna left the base together and moved on..

*       *       *

-I thought there would be a more solid system..

Not long after leaving the base, Henna spoke to me..

It was more of a light complaint, but everyone seemed to sympathize with it and added a word..

-I know. I never imagined that they would just throw it away like this, telling me to just endure it on my own..

-I also agree. Honestly, I was a little disappointed..

These were the words of Daniel and Calian..

It was worth it.

I didn't even know the specific details of the practice until I came here..

At least since it was being conducted at the academy, they probably thought about doing something according to the schedule..

However, in Abel’s opinion, the training program itself was effective enough..

‘This training is strictly focused on practical experience..’

During training, cadets must operate the gigant under tension for long periods of time..

Also, there are many cases where you fight one battle after another without proper rest..

Is that all there is??

Your party or your Gigant may break down or you may become lost..

Or, you may not be able to use Gigant because your physical strength and mental power are completely depleted..

This practice is intended to provide such experience in advance..

‘That's right. Anyway, everything you can learn normally is included in the academy curriculum..’

So there is no problem with the practice itself..

The problem was that during this practice, an 'accident' outside of the academy's control would occur..

Abel's purpose was to prevent that..

Of course, I couldn't say that out loud..

I couldn't tell you to persevere and work hard because it would all be helpful in terms of practice..

-I know.

Therefore, Abel continued to move while appropriately responding..

Surprisingly, I didn't encounter any fragments of the titan for about three or four hours after leaving the base..

Although they did not say it out loud, Kalian and others quietly expressed their dissatisfaction..

We decided to move together because it was dangerous, but nothing dangerous actually happened..

But Kalyan never expressed any dissatisfaction..

Just as I was about to take a break and move, I was attacked in a large scale..

Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!

There was a loud noise and dust flew in all directions..

Even Darin, who has a good sense of humor, could not warn of this attack in advance..

That's because this attack started from beneath the ground..

-Lazy Clothes!

The identity of the attacker was a fragment of a titan named Lazyclaw..

The body was oval-shaped and covered with a silver shell, and each front foot had three sharp, elongated claws..

In fact, it looked more like a claw, a weapon, than a claw..

-Don't get too close, keep your distance!

As soon as Abel confirmed its identity, he shouted loudly..

The thing that looks the most threatening on the outside is the sharp claws, but in fact, there is something more dangerous..

“key profit!”

One Ragiclaw tightly grabbed a Gigant who was slow to react..

At that moment, the ground beneath him sank..

Rumbling-!

-Wow!

The nameless cadet was scared and struggled..

But Lazyclaw did not move, and their bodies gradually sank below the ground..

As soon as Abel saw this, he rushed in and pulled the aircraft upward before it was completely sucked in..

This was the scariest thing about Lazyclaw..

Lazyclaw moves by making burrows under the ground, and when hunting, it has the habit of dragging its prey down into the burrows..

You might think it's a small beast, but Lazyclaw is a monster about the size of a two-story house..

Even if you're riding a Gigant, you can't let down your guard..

‘According to the story, a village disappeared in one night..’

Abel entered the battle cautiously, recalling the danger in his mind once again..

The situation was very confusing..

There was no one whose skills dropped significantly..

However, against Lazy Claw, which repeatedly dug into the ground and popped out at will, most of them were embarrassed and could not use their skills..

“Phew.”

Abel took a breath..

If things continue like this, the damage will grow uncontrollably..

Simply fighting hard wasn't enough.

So Abel opened his mouth..

-every!

The loud voice was amplified and rang out..

All eyes gathered in an instant..

-Don't force yourself and keep increasing your distance! It's not hard to deal with as long as you watch out for the claws and being caught.!

The conversation continued.

-If another person is captured, immediately cut down Lazy Claw or pull out the captured person! Since you're on the Gigant anyway, you won't die right away if you get sucked in, so don't panic.!

To be honest, these words were not very comforting, but surprisingly, those who heard them gradually regained their composure..

Abel, like Abel, frantically swung his sword and dealt with Ragiclaw, and the war situation gradually stabilized..

When the number of Lazyclaws decreased from fifteen to three, only then was Abel able to catch his breath..

But then.

Exciting-.

Suddenly, Abel's pattern became hot and his heart began to beat violently..

Abel instinctively turned his head to one side..

Then, very far away, at the end of my vision, I saw the shape of a ‘person’..

It looked towards Abel and disappeared in an instant, and at the same time, the heartbeat stopped..

-Abel! are you okay?

Abel, who was overcome with embarrassment, came to his senses when he heard Daniel's voice..

Abel slowly looked away and answered.

-huh.

But his expression was stiff..
