I Became a Genius at Gigant Academy - Episode 65
65fury
It was an hour later that Marigold came to the room..
“The Count is looking for you.”
“yes. I'll get ready and leave right away..”
After answering briefly, Abel immediately changed his clothes and left the room..
The place we arrived at following Marigold was not the office as usual, but the hall on the first floor..
“You came.”
Scarlett was chatting with the knights and greeted Abel lightly..
After taking the example, Abel opened his mouth..
“yes. Did you call me?.”
“okay. Because the guests arrived. First, why not go to the training ground and warm up a bit? Oh, and Gigant is there too..”
“All right.”
“Well then, follow Lord Diron here..”
Abel immediately followed Diron and looked around the training ground with emotional eyes..
‘It's been a while since I've been here.’
I felt very happy because I used this place every day before entering school..
“Abel! It's been a while!”
“A long time!”
Soon, familiar knights greeted me..
Abel walked straight into the training ground while chatting happily with them..
Inside, several Gigants were taken out, and Diron pointed to one aircraft and said..
“This is the aircraft you will use today..”
The aircraft was a Miles-class Gigantor, with a black exterior and a falcon symbol clearly engraved on the shoulder..
Abel looked up at it blankly and asked Diron:.
“I don't think it's an ordinary aircraft.?”
“This is the aircraft my lord used when he was young..”
“ah……!”
Abel let out a quiet exclamation at Diron’s answer..
That's because Scarlett's machine from her youth was one that Abel was also familiar with..
‘black hawk.’
It was one of Count Klein's exclusive aircraft, and of course it was not a main aircraft, but it was one of the few luxury items in the Miles class..
‘I thought he was just going to lend me the family's spare aircraft..’
But after thinking about it, I thought it was worth it..
This is because this event itself is fundamentally about ‘friendship.’.
In other words, sparring during gigants is also part of the process of serving guests..
However, wouldn't it be rude to show an insignificant Gigant in such a match??
‘Or maybe it's just a battle of pride.’
Anyway, the important thing was that I was assigned a very good aircraft..
‘You're lucky..’
Even if it was not necessarily about winning, the experience of flying a good aircraft was beneficial to Abel..
‘You will know what to improve and what to refer to..’
Of course, all that aside, just being able to ride the Black Hawk was exciting..
“Well then, let me warm up first..”
“Would you like to?”
“yes.”
Abel nodded with a determined look on his face..
They gave away the Black Hawk, but it doesn't make sense to fight in a mess..
Diron nodded with a satisfied face at Abel’s answer..
“All right. If you need someone, please let me know..”
“thank you.”
After asking for understanding, Abel began to warm up in earnest..
In the meantime, Diron himself became a light sparring partner..
By the time I completely relaxed my body,.
“You are coming..”
Diron said, pointing to one side..
Scarlett was walking there with the others..
Abel found the girl he had seen earlier by the window..
The distance quickly got closer, and Abel was the first to politely bow and greet me..
“hello. My name is Abel..”
“This is Abel. I am a cadet from the academy that I am sponsoring..”
Scarlett introduced Abel in a calm voice. Then she saw the blonde girl on the other side step forward and she said.
“My name is Leel Blaine. i look forward to.”
Reel said this and politely bowed to Abel..
Abel was taken aback by the unexpected attitude, but he responded without showing it..
“yes. i look forward to.”
After that, some brief conversations were exchanged, and then Scarlett spoke to Abel and Leel..
“Then, how about boarding the Gigant??”
“yes.”
“All right.”
Abel apologized and walked towards Black Hawk, glancing towards Reel..
‘What kind of gas is it?.’
Of course, he wouldn't have brought his Gigant with him..
No, not exactly..
The Gigant is not a car, nor is it something that can be brought across the border just for sparring..
Soon the question was resolved.
‘It's a white swan..’
On the side Reel faced was a white, elegant gigant..
Although it wasn't as good as the Black Hawk, it was a fairly famous aircraft..
It was not Scarlett's exclusive aircraft, but was the most outstanding of the Klein family's shared aircraft..
Excluding dedicated equipment and comparing only the aircraft specifications, it was not inferior to the Black Hawk..
‘There is no equipment at all, so the specs themselves will be similar..’
The reason I paid attention to such small details was to prepare for an emergency..
It may not be possible, but after the sparring is over, they may find fault with the difference in aircraft..
‘It didn't give that impression, though..’
With that in mind, Abel carefully boarded the aircraft..
I must have unlocked it beforehand, but when I put my hand on the boarding gate, the entrance opened smoothly..
I had a strange feeling as I entered the open entrance and took a seat..
‘It's comfortable.’
Abel felt extremely comfortable even though the seat was not tailored to him..
He wanted to take a closer look, but since that was not the case, Abel immediately placed his hand on the core..
Ugh-!
Magical power spread throughout the Gigant through the core..
In the process, Abel was impressed once more..
‘The magic circuit itself is incredibly sophisticated..’
I injected magical energy as usual, but the speed at which the magical energy circulated was incomparable..
Would you say it feels like driving on a well-paved road after going from a dirt road?.
Thanks to this, Abel was able to operate the aircraft much faster than usual..
-Umm. It feels different than usual.
But just as I was about to raise the aircraft, I heard a familiar voice..
It was lupus..
Since it was not his aircraft, Abel answered in his mind..
‘Because it’s a different gas.’
-is it? It feels good, I feel so comfortable.
Abel smiled and answered Rufus' words..
‘okay. It's a good aircraft.’
Cooung-!
With a roar, Black Hawk stood tall on the ground. And in the distance, I could see Leel's White Swan happening at almost the same time..
Looking at that scene, Abel said to Rufus:.
‘Soon, we will fight a very important battle. Please take care of me.’
-okay. I was already looking forward to the performance of the new body..
‘That's the same for me too.’
Abel answered and slowly moved the Gigant..
Cooung-!
As I took a step forward, an exhilarating feeling rose from my toes..
‘It's smooth..’
Even though I only took one step, I could definitely feel the difference..
Even though I don't know what material the joints were made of, the movements were very smooth..
Abel then stretched his arms forward at a rapid pace..
Huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu-!
Gigant's huge fist split the wind with the sound of the wind..
Abel did not stop there and continued to check Gigant by extending his fist and then lifting his leg..
After checking the various movements, Abel gave a general review..
‘This is Black Hawk.’
Admiration. There was only admiration..
Even though I knew the approximate specifications, the surprise when I rode it in person was special..
Then, when we looked at the other side, we saw Reel inspecting Gigant, similar to Abel..
Abel thought to himself as he looked at that..
‘It's not easy.’
I could tell the skill just by looking at the simple movements..
By the time we finished checking each other's aircraft,.
[We'll start soon!]
One of the knights shouted, holding a voice amplifying magic tool in his hand..
At those words, Abel and Reel stopped moving and stood upright..
Next, the wizards who were waiting for today's event activated the magic imprinted on the training ground..
Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu-!
A blue curtain enveloping the entire training ground unfolded along with a strong flow of magical power..
It was a strong protective shield.
Just by looking at the flow of magical power, it was clear that it was strong enough to withstand even Gigant punching with all his might..
In addition, the wizards activated various spells..
It was all for safety.
‘You're thorough..’
Even though the space is relatively small, I feel much more at ease if the shield is that strong..
Even if you make a mistake, there will be no secondary damage..
[Please select weapons for both sides and complete preparations for exchange.!]
Then the knight shouted in a loud voice:.
Abel walked towards the weapons prepared for him and picked up the largest sword..
Compared to the sword I recently acquired, it was a relatively normal size, but still not bad..
‘Rather, it would be easier to deal with it right away..’
Abel swung his sword a few times and then returned to his original position..
At that moment, the other side had also finished selecting their weapon..
Of course, Reel's weapon of choice was a spear..
‘Indeed, what level of skill is it?.’
Abel gazed at Reel..
Although he was a character I had never seen before in a game, it was clear that his skills were not ordinary..
Because he is the only successor to a prestigious samurai family..
‘If my skills weren't that good in the first place, I wouldn't have come to this position..’
-It won't be an easy fight.
‘I guess so.’
Rufus' voice was filled with excitement, as if he was looking forward to the battle..
Abel looked at the other person while maintaining tension..
And after a while.
[Let's start the exchange!]
The driver announced the start of the exchange in a loud voice..
But neither side took action right away..
Just move slowly and observe the other person..
Boom, boom-!
Of course, in the meantime, the distance was slowly narrowing..
Abel measured the distance carefully..
His sword was also larger than a normal sword, so it wasn't short, but it wasn't as short as a spear..
If you were going to get close, you had to hit it in an instant..
The worst was being unilaterally checked at an ambiguous intersection..
‘I can't see any gaps..’
The problem was that Leel was not skilled enough to allow access so easily..
Reel's Gigant was staring at Abel with a firm stance like a giant wall..
It was clear that if I approached carelessly, the spear would pierce my torso..
Cooung-!
Then at some point.
Reel suddenly narrowed the distance and came in..
Abel's eyes sparkled at the movement, which clearly showed the purpose of keeping him in check..
The spear aimed at Abel's left shoulder..
Cooung!
Abel immediately moved to the right and raised his sword to shoulder height..
whistling!
In response, Reel quickly took back the spear he had held out and hurriedly turned to the left..
Abel's sword passed through the air with just an edge..
Cooung-!
As a result, both sides returned to their original positions without any significant gains..
“Both sides are cautious..”
“I guess they both have skills that won't fall for ordinary tricks..”
Everyone who was watching said something..
The tone of speech was casual, but there was a hint of subtle admiration..
This is because both showed skills that were not appropriate for their age..
With everyone's eyes focused on the two,.
thud-!
Abel made a surprise advance..
With the sword pointed at the opponent's neck.
