I Became a Genius at Gigant Academy - Episode 91
91fury
It took quite a while for the carriage to get out of the islands..
This was because the door to exit was almost directly opposite to where the academy was located..
Still, once we got out of the system, there was no more trouble, so the carriage began to speed up in earnest..
“It's been a while since I was outside the system.”
Daniel muttered while looking out the window..
Abel also added a word to him..
“me too. I think it’s been almost a year since I last practiced..”
“Oh, there was practical training. I was thinking about leaving that out..”
“It's worth it. Because I was out of my mind at the time..”
Daniel said, looking out the window..
“But when I talk about it like this, it seems like the practice was a very long time ago. Actually, it hasn't been that long.”
“so do i. Is it because I have a lot of work to do?.”
Since entering the academy, it has been a series of events without a break..
It felt like almost a year had passed..
“2Is the semester this hectic??”
“If you add more, it will be more, not less, right? My seniors actually said that the second semester is the best time to start..”
“It was like that.”
Daniel shook his head..
When I was at the academy, I would occasionally meet seniors, and there was something I heard every time..
2From the beginning of the semester, the first semester will be so difficult that it will feel like a joke..
Actually, Abel knew that better than anyone else..
I just haven't experienced it myself, but I've played it hundreds of times in the game..
“Umm. I know it will be difficult, but I'm secretly looking forward to it..”
“I'm looking forward to it?”
“huh. There wasn't much training on the Gigant in the first semester..”
“ah. That's right.”
As Daniel said, Gigant did not play a large role in the first semester classes..
In fact, it was all lectures given by Kaul..
“Instructor Kaul's class only did various things in the beginning, but the second half was mostly focused on adaptation training..”
“huh. Ride the Gigant and last a long time. Repeat basic posture training. It was things like that.?”
“Because the basics are important.”
“……Sometimes you sound like an old man?”
Daniel shook his head with a tired expression..
Abel shook his head firmly and said.
“It all becomes blood and flesh..”
Daniel looked fed up with Abel’s old-fashioned attitude..
Daniel would be second to none in terms of sincerity, but he could not stand up to Abel..
“That's it, that's enough By the way, have you been to a villa or something??”
Abel answered the question briefly..
“at all. I've never been outside the system just to have fun..”
“Me too. I couldn't afford it.”
Daniel continued speaking while leaning heavily on the backrest..
“Honestly, if it was the olden days, I don't think I would have gone even if they had asked me to go out to play..”
“Well now?”
“My thoughts have changed a bit. Working hard is important, but I don't think that's everything..”
Abel turned his head and looked at Daniel and asked.
“why?”
“Umm… … . To be honest, there were quite a few scary moments during the last field training.?”
Daniel continued speaking with a puzzled expression..
“When a giant suddenly appeared. I even thought about dying here like this..”
“what… … That was the same for me too.”
“right? Thanks to you, we overcame the crisis, but I started thinking about it later..”
After hesitating for a moment, he spoke slowly..
“If I die like this, what will be left? I lived hard, but when I die, it's all over.?”
Abel nodded..
“yes.”
“So from then on, my thoughts changed a bit. It's important to live hard, but you shouldn't throw away everything else..”
Daniel said that and continued with a grin..
“Did I say too grandly that I want to have some fun now??”
“It's grandiose. It's an idea that anyone would do..”
Abel smiled and said.
In fact, wasn't it a similar reason why he went out to play like this this time?.
“Everyone is like that.”
Playing, laughing, talking, making memories.
If you give up all those things and run, what will be left??
No, is it possible to keep running while giving up all of those things in the first place??
“good idea.”
Abel, like Daniel, said while leaning heavily on the backrest..
“But when I go back, I'll just practice every day.?”
“You say it like it won't happen.”
The two looked at each other again and laughed..
Anyway, the two had many similarities. At least when it comes to attitudes toward training..
“This time, let's not think about anything and get some rest..”
“okay.”
After saying that, the two rested quietly for a while..
* * *
The carriage went straight along the road..
The road to the villa was well maintained, so no giant fragments or bandits appeared..
Thanks to this, they were able to arrive at the originally scheduled time..
At Henna's villa.
“Wow, it's really big.”
“pretty.”
Everyone who got off the carriage burst into admiration..
That's because Henna's villa and the surrounding scenery were not usually beautiful..
There was no separate garden, but flowers were in full bloom in the surrounding grass..
The villa in the middle boasted a simple yet elegant charm in harmony with the grass..
Henna, who came down last, spoke with her cheeks blushing at the praise from others..
“My, it's my favorite place. I'm glad everyone seems to like it.”
“Whatever you like! I already feel like it was a good thing I came here to have fun.!”
Daniel spoke in a cheerful voice..
Others expressed their sympathy, though not as prominently..
“Then let’s go first! The butler will be waiting.”
Henna hurriedly walked ahead, perhaps because she was weak to this type of praise..
The carriage stopped not far from the mansion, so I was able to quickly reach the front gate..
“Welcome to Luvière Villa.”
When we arrived in front of it, a butler with graying hair greeted the group in a polite voice..
Abel looked at him and thought.
‘He really is a butler who looks like something out of a fairy tale book..’
Just by looking at his appearance, I could tell he was a butler..
“Well then, please come in..”
The group entered the mansion under the guidance of the butler..
The interior of the mansion was not flashy, but it was just as impressive as the exterior..
It was so well maintained that there wasn't a single speck of dust to be found there..
“Since you must have had a hard time getting here, I will first show you the room you will be staying in..”
So they were guided and unpacked their luggage in the room..
There were a total of three rooms to stay in, and those who rode the carriage together decided to share the same room..
“Wow, the room is really spacious too..”
“I know. I would believe it if they said it was for 8 people, not 2. look at the size of the bed.”
The academy's dormitory was by no means inferior, but the nobleman's villa was still different no matter what..
Abel and Daniel briefly unpacked their luggage and went out immediately..
Henna and May came outside first..
“Hey. The room was really nice too.?”
“okay? I'm glad.”
Henna seemed to have calmed down a bit by now and answered confidently..
Soon, Iolin and Darin came out of the room, and Henna opened her mouth again..
“I will personally show you around the mansion and its surroundings. I think it would be more convenient that way..”
“It doesn't matter to us.”
“huh.”
“Then, I'll show you around the mansion first! Follow!”
Henna walked ahead and showed me around the mansion..
restaurant. library. bathroom, etc..
After walking around the mansion like that, Henna said with a grin..
“Now that we've seen the mansion, let's go outside..”
“If you're outside, look around the mountains.?”
“Details are secret. Look forward.”
Henna immediately dragged the group and headed to the back of the mansion..
As if they had finished talking with the butler in advance, two employees were waiting and followed them..
There was a forest behind the mansion, and there was a small path there..
“There are some rough places along the way, so watch your step..”
It was a sudden forest tour, but no one had any complaints..
It may not be as intensively maintained as a garden, but the scenery was quite beautiful..
“Wow, isn't that fairy grass??”
“I guess that's right? I only saw it in books.”
There were rare plants and flowers everywhere in the forest, and Darin liked them the most..
‘Come to think of it, I was very interested in plants..’
Abel once again remembered Darin's tastes..
These were things I usually forgot because they weren't particularly important..
Abel recalled forgotten memories while listening to the other kids chatting..
‘What Daniel likes is delicious food. Iolin likes small animals. What May likes is sleep and soft pillows. and…….’
Abel, who was thinking about things one by one, turned his gaze to Henna and let out a small exclamation..
Because remembering what she liked gave me a sense of where she was going..
Of course, I didn't mean to ruin the mood by saying it out loud..
‘Somehow, there was a reason I was confident..’
Abel smiled and walked eagerly along with Henna who was walking ahead of him..
Henna's steps seemed lighter than ever.
After walking the path through the forest for about 30 minutes,.
“Everyone prepare to be surprised!”
Henna shouted in a clear voice and increased her walking speed..
And soon the forest ended and an open space appeared..
Shoot aaaaa-.
The first signal transmitted was ‘sound’..
Then, the salty feeling that had been gently lingering in the tip of my nose from before became stronger..
“uh!”
Darin, who was walking right behind Henna, shouted in surprise..
The reactions of May and Iolin behind them were no different..
Everyone opened their eyes wide in surprise and were mesmerized by the scenery unfolding in front of them..
“why? What…….”
Daniel, who came out of the forest late because he was walking right in front of Abel, froze when he saw the scene unfolding in front of him..
someone muttered in a low voice.
“ocean……?”
“huh! It's the sea!”
Henna coolly revealed the identity of the surprise gift..
Just as she said, the cool sea stretched out in front of me..
It was a scenery that felt like my heart was opening just by looking at it..
“It's the sea.”
Abel walked forward, filled his eyes with the sea, and muttered:.
I've been to this place several times during my time on Earth, but that doesn't dilute the emotion..
‘It's been a few years since I've seen the sea?’
At least I haven't seen one since I woke up here..
“and… … . It's my first time seeing the sea.”
“me too.”
Iolin expressed sympathy in a low voice to Darin's muttering..
As you can see from the conversation between the two, there are many people in this world who have never seen the sea in their lives..
Transportation was not that convenient, and not many people had enough leisure time to travel to see the sea..
Therefore, the emotions of those who saw the sea were so strong that they cannot be expressed in words..
“Henry! Lay out what you prepared!”
“All right.”
Henna spoke to the employee who came with her while the others admired it..
As soon as the employee heard her words, he opened the basket he was holding and started laying out the food along with the cloth on the floor..
When Daniel saw that, his eyes sparkled to the point of being burdensome..
“We're the only ones here, so just relax.!”
Henna said that and continued, smiling brighter than ever..
“So let's play!”
