I Became a Genius at Gigant Academy - Episode 87
87fury
Abel won several championships in the underground fighting arena, but of course there were times when he was in the lower ranks..
That doesn't mean he was good at handling Gigant from the beginning..
Therefore, at that time, I had to use all kinds of means to make up for my lack of skills..
Trash talk was one of them..
-what… … Called?
-If you're tired, finish it quickly. I want to take a break.
There was no answer this time, but it was clear that the other person heard correctly..
Cooung-!
Because the momentum has clearly changed.
Percival kicked the ground hard and narrowed the gap once again..
The speed of the ship was faster than before, as if it was not tiring, but the trajectory was more honest..
bang!
‘quite.’
Abel was amazed inwardly as he blocked the attack..
The attack before then had fallen short of expectations in many ways, but now it was different..
Even though I blocked it properly, I felt a heavy impact..
Perhaps the opponent was also conserving his strength..
thud!
Percival didn't back down and swung his spear once again, as if he had no intention of seeing the end..
bang! bang! bang!
Even if I blocked it, the attack continued continuously..
The speed was so fast that it was not easy to do anything other than defend..
But Abel had no intention of sitting idly by..
The reason I provoked my opponent in the first place was to gain a quick victory..
Maybe it was Percival after his talent fully blossomed, but the current Percival was enough to attack him..
Abel watched his opponent's attack with patience, and at some point he suddenly took a step forward..
Kwaang!
Percival's spear struck his shoulder. A considerable number of blows were delivered, but not enough to cause him to lose his sword..
-!
Percival tried to step back as if he felt something was off, but the momentum had already passed to Abel..
‘If there is no gap, you can create it..’
Abel held his sword tightly. He then retreated and swung his sword fiercely at Percival, who held out his spear..
The moment when Percival's spear was about to block Abel's sword.
Whoa whoa!
Suddenly, the sword's trajectory twisted and rose upward..
Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!
Percival's aircraft jumped upward with a loud noise..
Percival tried to regain his balance, but Abel had no intention of letting him go..
Kwaang!
Abel ran forward, caught Percival's flying aircraft with one hand, and extended his sword with the other hand..
Cooung!
Immediately after that, the two aircraft crashed to the ground..
Abel aimed his sword at the opponent's cockpit..
-……surrender.
It was not long before the powerless declaration of surrender was made..
-Okay, it's done! Abel! It seemed like they were being pushed unilaterally, but with a bold move, they quickly turned the tide! A declaration of surrender was received.!
Doyle shouted loudly in surprise and declared Abel's victory..
After Abel heard that, he straightened his posture and held out his hand to Percival..
-Are you okay??
-okay.
Percival's excitement seemed to have subsided before he knew it, and he spoke in a strangely relaxed voice..
-1Are there many monsters like you in the school year??
Abel smiled and said at the sudden question..
-Is that possible?.
-under. I guess so.
Percival smiled slightly and spoke again..
-It's my defeat. There's no room for excuses.
-It was a good match.
-okay. See you next time.
-We'll probably see you again sooner than expected..
Percival tried to say something, but Abel left the stadium before he could..
‘It was close..’
On the surface, it was clearly an overwhelming victory achieved through a bold move..
But in reality it wasn't like that.
‘If I had dragged it any further, it would have been dangerous..’
Abel saw.
The moment the final blow was delivered, electricity erupted from Percival's aircraft as it rose into the air..
‘Who would have thought they would try to use their vision in a game like this?.’
Percival's skills were still far behind the speedy Percival that Abel knew, but he had one exceptional trait..
It was a vision passed down in his family from generation to generation..
Percival at this time rarely used it because he couldn't fully control it, but he tried to use it just now..
If left as is, it would have been a very dangerous fight regardless of the outcome of the game..
‘Of course, you have to use your mouth appropriately..’
Abel walked into the waiting room with an important lesson in mind..
* * *
-already! The match is the semifinals! That's only one of two games left.!
-This tournament was truly a series of surprises! Isn't that right??
-yes! In the history of the tournament, there has only been one case where two first-year cadets from the Academy advanced to the semifinals.!
-One of them has already defeated his opponent and advanced to the finals.!
Doyle and the other host were talking passionately, as if competing to see who could speak louder..
Doyle's excitement level seemed especially high, possibly due to the previous match..
-Abel! Abel quickly won the semifinals with better-than-expected skills and advanced to the finals.!
Abel laughed when he heard that sound..
‘I was lucky.’
If you look at what the host says, it looks like he used his skills to suppress the opponent, but in reality, that wasn't the case..
Although the opponent had excellent skills, he had already run out of energy due to the fierce battle he had with a formidable opponent..
Thanks to this, Abel was able to achieve victory without difficulty..
-Ego! Well then, let’s watch this game.!
-In fact, it is the game that the audience is most excited about. Ah, right there! The double-sworded jackal is entering.!
At those words, the audience cheered like crazy..
Jackal was actually showing overwhelming skills in this tournament..
At that time, Gigant appeared from the other side as well..
The host immediately pointed his finger in that direction and shouted loudly..
-From the other side! Iolin! Ollin Lee appears!
Iolin. She also advanced to the semifinals.
‘The result exceeded expectations.’
Abel and Iolin.
I rose to a much higher position than I first expected..
‘Originally, 3rd place was the final goal..’
To some extent, it could be said that Daejinwoon followed suit. both of them.
Of course, if my skills weren't there, I wouldn't have gotten this far even if I was lucky..
Abel looked at the two standing facing each other with their arms crossed..
‘Still, this game is going to be difficult..’
I think there was a lot of luck in this tournament, but it was unreasonable to expect Iolin to even defeat the Jackal..
‘That's enough skill to be an active rider..’
In the finals, Abel also aimed to use all his remaining strength to achieve a satisfactory finish rather than to win..
That was why I was watching the game like this without taking a break..
In order to analyze the opponent a little more.
-ruler! Now let's start the game!
Meanwhile, after finally finishing the lengthy explanation, Doyle announced the start of the game..
‘You're careful..’
Even though the start signal was given, the two did not move..
They just hold their weapons and stare at each other..
But the feeling was quite different.
Iolin felt like he was calmly observing the other person..
On the other hand, the jackal was ready to pounce at any time as if it had prey in front of it..
It feels like it might explode at any moment..
‘Who will move first?.’
When that thought came to mind.
Sigh-.
The jackal slowly put his paw forward..
unexpected and careful movement.
The jackal, holding a sword in each hand, narrowed the distance to Iolin little by little..
‘I thought it would suddenly come rushing in..’
In fact, he often showed that in previous games..
Just like Percival, you rush in right from the start, overwhelmingly push your opponent, and then quickly achieve victory..
In the same flow.
On the other hand, the current jackal seemed very cautious..
Some of the audience booed at that sight, but the jackal didn't even flinch..
While Abel was looking at the jackal, he suddenly noticed that Iolin looked strange..
‘I'm stepping back?’
I have sparred with Iolin countless times, but I have rarely seen him back down..
Doesn’t that feel like being pressured by momentum?.
‘Does it feel different when you meet face to face?.’
You can't really know this unless you're actually in front of the other person..
The jackal approached and Iolin retreated..
However, there was a clear difference in speed, and the gap between the two was clearly narrowing..
When the gap between the two narrows to a certain level or more.
whistling!
Surprisingly, Iolin struck first..
When I extended my thin sword forward, the jackal immediately leaned to the right..
However, it was not a simple evasive move..
percussion!
The jackal lightly hit the ground and swung his two swords upward as if soaring..
It was an exquisite trajectory that is difficult to imagine in general..
Hehehey profit!
Iolin dodged the attack by a narrow margin by leaning back, but that wasn't the end of the jackal's attack..
Swish! Hwii profit!
The jackal's two swords pursued Iolin in a strange trajectory, as if each had its own identity..
In the meantime, Iolin counterattacked several times, but was only blocked by the sword each time..
And at some point.
thud!
Iolin's aircraft has reached the end of the stadium..
It meant there was no more room to back down..
‘It's over.’
Judging from his reaction, it seemed like he kept retreating without realizing that the path behind him was a dead end..
The jackal crouched down and explosively swung his two swords as if he wanted to finish the job..
When Iolin saw that, instead of blocking or dodging, he stabbed his sword forward again..
Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!
Immediately after that, a crash sound rang out..
Abel reflexively clenched his fists..
Jackal's attack to finish. Even in Abel's opinion, it was a fairly high-level blow..
But surprisingly, Iolin was not left alone..
-No, it's amazing!
-Ollin Lee! At the very end! A surprisingly beautiful strike!
Iolin's sword pierced the opponent's aircraft and protruded out the other side..
Abel clearly saw how the attack was carried out and could clearly understand its meaning..
‘It was acting.’
The fact that he stepped back and looked embarrassed was all an act..
A postponement for the final blow..
However, that didn't mean she won..
-Even though I lost! It looked very amazing!
Jackal's two swords pierced both sides of Iolin's passenger seat, while Iolin's sword pierced his opponent's right shoulder..
Because the jackal twisted his body at the end.
-Wow!
-Jackal! jackal!
So the victory went to the jackal..
The audience cheered loudly at the name of Jackal just after seeing the results, but Abel grinned when he saw Iolin's aircraft..
‘I can't just be helpless..’
When I saw him like that, I couldn't think of ending the fight in moderation..
Of course, I didn't originally intend to do that. Abel stood up without any regrets..
Now it was time to take a real break for the final battle..
Just when I was about to head to the waiting room.
“Abel?”
An unfamiliar voice called his name..
Abel turned his head without thinking and opened his eyes wide when he confirmed the other person's identity..
“hello. It's my first time meeting you.”
A woman with impressive purple hair and eyes.
“My name is Deborah..”
Deborah, known as a wealthy woman, spoke to him..
