I Became a Genius at Gigant Academy - Episode 61
61fury
Engineers were waiting inside the training center..
This is because standard weapons do not require separate adjustment, but custom-made weapons require inspection and adjustment before use..
And among the engineers waiting, there was one who was familiar with Abel..
“Temarin!”
Temarin, whose name was suddenly called, was startled and trembled, then noticed his surroundings and approached him..
Abel said with a smile..
“Long time no see. Can you tell us about the current condition of the aircraft??”
“yes? Ah yes.”
Temarin was embarrassed because it was originally the role of the chief engineer to do this, but he answered Abel's request faithfully..
“The aircraft is in clean condition without any problems. The weapons that have arrived have now been roughly adjusted, but detailed adjustments are required after startup..”
“It's perfect. But do you remember what you promised??”
“yes, yes?”
“You said you wanted to make a request after returning..”
Of course, I didn't ask back because I was afraid Temarin wouldn't remember it..
She hastily nodded and answered.
“Sure! I was already waiting.”
“I'm glad you remember. I'd like to talk a little bit about that after the trial run..”
“yes yes.”
“Then let's start it up.”
After ending his conversation with her, Abel turned his head to Kaya..
Kaya, who was watching the conversation between the two with a meaningful expression, quickly changed her expression..
“Have a nice trip.”
“huh. I'll come back and see how great your skills are..”
“You said it would be a surprise? It is said that the weapon has been completed to a level that Aesongi could not even imagine..”
“So I’m looking forward to it even more.?”
Abel smiled and walked towards the Gigant boarding seat..
Eventually, I climbed up the ladder and placed my palm on the passenger seat, and the entrance opened smoothly..
As he went inside and took a seat, Abel was greeted by a sense of comfort that was different from when he boarded the supply plane..
‘Of course, familiarity is best.’
The basic specifications themselves are still not much different from the popular version, but the original Gigant is not exactly the same..
In that respect, Abel had already become completely attached and accustomed to his aircraft..
“Phew.”
Abel exhaled briefly and slowly placed both hands on his core..
That moment.
-It feels familiar..
Rufus, who had been quiet the whole time, opened his mouth..
“okay. It's time to work.”
-Good.
While talking, Abel simultaneously raised his magic power and pushed it into his core..
Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu-!
Then the familiar cycle began, and at the same time Abel felt his senses expanding..
Now this whole process takes less than a minute..
Compared to the beginning, it could be said to be a huge improvement..
‘Ultimately, it has to be reduced to 10 seconds..’
That was a story from a long time in the future..
Abel felt his senses fully expanded and slowly moved the aircraft..
Cooung-!
Gigant slowly stood up with a dull vibration..
Next, Abel tried moving the aircraft's arms and legs..
The engineers must have done a good job of maintaining it, so even though it went through quite a tough battle on the way back, the Gigant was in very good condition..
After completing a brief inspection, Abel immediately lifted the huge sword lying on the floor..
Even though I held it with both hands, it felt quite heavy..
The shape was similar to a relic, but at least the weight was a world away..
‘Although the artifact is strangely light,.’
Fortunately, there was no damage to the joints or anything like that..
“Phew.”
Kaya, who was watching from one side, sighed in relief..
At least the first step was taken without a problem. But the important thing was whether Abel could handle that weapon..
‘heavy…….’
Abel looked down at the sword he was holding tightly with both hands with a nervous expression..
His main weapons so far have been a standard-length one-handed sword and shield..
This is because, other than the spear, it is the easiest equipment to handle and has an appropriate balance between attack and defense..
On the other hand, this two-handed sword was an extreme item no matter who saw it..
It was never easy to handle properly..
If you were to fight your past self with a one-handed sword and shield right now, you would most likely lose..
‘But you absolutely have to get used to this weapon..’
Considering the 'build' he had decided on, handling this huge two-handed sword was essential..
This was because everything from swordsmanship to the final equipment was designed with this sword in mind..
Abel, thinking about the future and strengthening his resolve, slowly raised his sword upward..
When the sword raised high points straight to the sky.
Cooung!
Lupus took a step forward and.
Huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu-!
At the same time, the giant sword split the air at high speed..
Abel did not stop there and swung his sword one after another..
Horizontally, vertically, diagonally. And again diagonally, vertically and horizontally..
After finishing the flowing succession of attacks, Abel returned to the starting posture and exhaled..
“Whoa whoa.”
My whole body felt warm..
This means that the horsepower consumption was large..
‘It's not easy either.’
On the outside, it looks like you're simply swinging a weapon, but in reality, that's not the case..
Abel's specially custom-made sword weighs several times more than an ordinary sword, so if you swing it without thinking, it will damage the aircraft..
Therefore, I had to pay attention to each movement and know how to use my magic appropriately..
Perhaps because it was before I learned proper swordsmanship, I felt a lot of pressure..
If this continues, it will be difficult to use in practice..
But it wasn't like there was no way..
“Lupus. Please.”
-That's right.
At that moment, a faint light emanated from the bracelet and flowed into the core..
This is something I learned on the way back: Lupus, who was transferred to the bracelet, could be transferred to the aircraft whenever he wanted..
Movement is much more free than before..
Cooung-!
And the Gigant with lupus is even more different than before..
Abel took a short breath and then began to attack again..
Coo! thud! thud!
It clearly moves and uses the same magic as before, but the results were different..
This is because Rufus calculates not only the efficient path of magic power at each time, but also fine posture adjustments..
Thanks to this, Abel was able to attack with less burden than before..
‘more here……!’
Abel sped up a little more and came up with an imaginary enemy in his head..
None other than the giant we encountered in the forest..
Although the fight at that time ended well, Abel was aware of his lack of skills..
‘I'm only just getting started compared to the overall level of riders..’
Even though I knew that objectively well, the reason why I suddenly felt anxious like now was because I also knew the future of this world better than anyone else..
Abel stopped swinging his sword for a moment and looked ahead..
Now that the rough inspection was done, it was time to do the final check..
“Whoa whoa.”
Abel took a long breath and slowly raised his magic power..
The core received more than twice as much magical power as usual and quickly spread it throughout Gigant's entire body..
Abel did not stop there and directed his magic towards the weapon..
Huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu-!
The weapon that greedily absorbed magical power began to take on an unusual glow..
An ominous crimson color.
thud!
Abel took a step forward..
Shuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!
At that time, one side of the great sword opened and a loud noise rang out..
The great sword, which gained momentum in an instant, was swung at a speed so fast that it left an afterimage..
Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!
Soon, a deafening roar rang out..
The wall of the training center, which had a strong built-in repair ability, was unable to withstand the impact and collapsed and regenerated repeatedly..
Additionally, the air inside the training ground was warmer than before..
The result was better than expected.
But Abel could not be happy..
Device Geek-!
Immediately after that, an ominous sound rang out from the shoulder joint..
Abel came to his senses at the sound and immediately slowly lowered his arm..
“Huh, huh.”
Before I knew it, my body was drenched in sweat..
‘Luckily it wasn't completely damaged..’
Abel carefully checked the state of the aircraft and put his sword aside..
It wasn't major damage, but the joint was almost torn off..
As expected, it was not an easy item to handle..
Abel, who wiped the sweat from his hands, slowly laid Gigant back in his original position and then deactivated the tuning..
-I'm tired.
Lupus also went straight into sleep mode, perhaps because it had been a while since he exerted himself..
Abel waited for his sweat to cool for a moment, then opened the passenger seat door and got out..
“Abel!”
“Are you okay?”
As soon as I came out, I heard Kaya and Temarin's voices..
When I looked over there, I saw the two of them looking at me with worried expressions..
“Oh, it's okay. I'm sorry for overdoing it. It's okay, Kaya.”
Abel first apologized to Engineer Temarin and then told Kaya that it was okay..
“It's not a problem with the range of motion; it's probably because a large impact is applied to the joint momentarily. In the same case as before, you need to be careful because the same thing may happen unless you replace the joint with a different material..”
Temarin gave advice with a serious expression, losing his usual shy demeanor..
Abel also nodded as if he understood because it was an important story..
After the conversation had settled down to some extent, Abel said to Temarin:.
“Now, I will tell you about the detailed adjustment of the joints and the request. wait a minute.”
After asking for understanding, Abel said to Kaya:.
“The weapon was good. It was well balanced so I was able to handle it despite the huge weight..”
“So what? He was swinging around like a crazy person. If you fight like that, all your joints will be shattered in the middle of the fight, right? Plus the last one…….”
Kaya responded to Abel’s words with a bitter tone..
Although she works as a receptionist, her knowledge of Gigant is not to be underestimated as she has spent almost all her time in the workshop since she was young..
“okay. From next time, I won’t be too hard on myself. By the way, it seems like there was a metal mixed in among the ingredients that I didn't apply for.?”
“Ah, I felt it again?”
Kaya blinked in surprise and said.
“My father mixed a little extra stone into the core. They said it would suit you well.”
“also. For some reason, I kept itching for magical power. The same goes for the excitement at the end..”
“I didn't know it would be that bad. My father too. Oh, and my father said he could engrave it additionally if I wanted later. There's enough space left.”
“I'd have to save up a ton of money to engrave it..”
“The future is bright, so I'm sure I'll save up that much quickly.?”
Kaya smiled and tapped Abel on the shoulder..
Abel also smiled and nodded..
“I'll be there to take care of the request in a few months..”
“Your ambition is great. okay. I'll be waiting. And I come here just to have fun, not just for requests..”
“huh. I'm planning on going to visit next time I go out. I also have to say thank you..”
The weapon you commissioned came out much better than expected, but if you don't even say thank you, you're a thief..
Kaya nodded as if she liked Abel's answer..
“Then, I'll go quickly. I have to go and rest now too..”
“okay. Go in carefully.”
Abel escorted her to the entrance of the training ground, then returned and continued the conversation with Temarin again..
“Now I'd like to talk about the request. Do you have time??”
“Ah yes! I told you!”
Abel was relieved by the answer and opened his mouth..
“First of all, I would like to strengthen the joints a bit..”
“Joints? There will be quite a few ingredients involved..”
Temarin said with concern..
That's because expensive materials are usually used in the joints of Gigant..
As a result, it was not easy to improve..
Of course, Abel didn't say it without thinking..
“I'm not trying to create a completely new joint. I'm only looking to replace a few parts. Looking at the joint side…….”
Abel walked over to Lupus' joint and explained it in detail..
Temarin, who heard the whole story, nodded with a surprised expression..
“That way, you can achieve maximum efficiency at minimum cost. How did you know this??”
“I once worked in a workshop..”
“iced coffee… … indeed.”
Abel smiled awkwardly..
Temarin may have been convinced by Abel's connection to the Vulcan Workshop, but the design he just mentioned did not actually come from there..
‘This was the national blueprint in the game..’
Since the Gigant was a key element in the game, there was a very good system for modifying or creating the Gigant to suit one's taste..
Abel was so immersed in that part that he even memorized settings that he didn't necessarily need to know..
The design for the joint modification that I told Temarin was also memorized at that time..
Of course, the information in the game was vague, but I was able to explain it somehow because I had the basic knowledge I learned while working in the workshop..
Above all, Temarin's understanding was very good..
‘Either way, he's a genius engineer..’
That was why Abel tried to entrust the request to Temarin..
Because I believed that she would be able to properly fill in the gaps in my knowledge..
“Then, can I just remodel the joints??”
“no. The main is separate.”
“Separately?”
“yes.”
Abel said with sparkling eyes..
“I would like to completely revamp the Guardian's Shield among my sidearms..”
