I Became a Genius at Gigant Academy



A space with a strong iron smell.

The sound of clattering echoed from all sides, and the cheers of people leaked in from somewhere.

Abel was standing in the middle of the mayhem.

“Hmm.”

Despite the enormous noise, Abel was watching what was in front of him unconcerned.

There is a giant made of steel. It was a midget, a low-grade Gigant with a height of 3.8M.

Abel muttered with a puzzled expression, as if he didn’t like something.

“The maintenance is perfect… … . It’s also very bad.”

As Abel said, Gigant was well maintained, but the scars of the battle remained deep everywhere.

“Tsk.”

It wasn’t a look I liked.

However, there is no Gigant that can be replaced right away, and there is no condition to replace parts right away.

‘It can’t be helped.’

Abel shook his head and calmed down his regret.

I was confident that I could have made it better if I had more time, but I didn’t have to.

‘It ends today anyway.’

Because today will be the last fight with this piece of scrap metal.

Abel thought with burning eyes.

‘Seize the opportunity unconditionally.’

If you seize the opportunity, you can enter the ‘Academy’ that you so longed for.

However, even in the midst of burning such passion, regret and regret remained in Abel’s eyes.

In a way, it was natural.

The Gigant in front of him was the first Gigant he had obtained after falling into this unfamiliar world and going through all sorts of hardships.

The moment he first got his Gigant, he was so excited that he even gave it the name ‘Rabbit’.

It was because the parts standing tall on either side of the head looked like rabbit ears.

“Whoa.”

But Abel was well aware.

That you have to send what you send.

This world was too harsh to live with more than necessary affection for Gigant, who had no life.

Abel climbed the ladder, suppressing his burning emotions, and smeared the rabbit’s joints with magically refined oil.

In the meantime, in a corner of my head, memories of the past floated up like clouds.

The memory of the first time I came to this place, Abellatium.

* * *

when you first open your eyes

he felt it

that something is wrong

In fact, anyone would have.

As usual, I played games until late at night, then lay down on the bed and went to sleep, but when I opened my eyes, I was on a hard stone floor.

His clothes were badly damaged, and he was no better than a rag-picker, and his body was mottled everywhere, as if covered with soot.

People passing by looked at him as if they were looking at garbage or filth.

‘what?’

It was something that Oh Han-seong, a young man who had just turned 24, was not used to.

If it was a dream, I wished I would wake up now.

But that night.

As he lay down on the cold stone floor, clutching his hungry stomach, he became aware of the reality.

terrible reality.

‘Nonsense.’

Denied it at first.

There was no reason. He just wanted to deny his situation.

But denying it didn’t change anything. Rather, it only makes you realize a more hopeless reality.

While wandering the streets for survival.

He learned one thing.

This is not Earth.

Non-human races exist here, and mysterious powers that do not exist on Earth exist.

Above all, ‘Gigant’ existed here.

That was a very important clue.

This is because Gigant was the key element of the game I was playing right before falling into this unfamiliar world.

It is a game based on a fantasy world view and in which those who deal with Gigant become the main characters.

Knowing this, he looked around the city more actively than before, and was convinced shortly after.

that this place is in the game.

Oh Han-seong abandoned his name after realizing the uncomfortable truth.

Since then, nearly two years have passed, and in the meantime, he has obtained the lowest-grade Gigant, ‘Mizzet’.

It was very surprising that a slob from the bottom with nothing owned an expensive Gigant, even though he was close to being in the middle of the day.

Perhaps that story alone would suffice for a novel, but instead of dwelling on the past, he looked to the future.

Abel.

It was a new name for Hanseong to move towards the future.

“It’s over.”

Abel murmured, wiping the sweat from his brow.

The joints are all oiled. I sweated a little in the process, but it wasn’t enough to interfere with the game.

Rather, this is good enough to play the game. You don’t even need to unwind.

Abel said, putting his hand on the rabbit’s waist.

“Hold on this time.”

Of course, no answer came back.

Abel smiled, climbed down the ladder, and opened the bag that had been set on the floor.

What was taken out of it was the combat uniform.

The Midget Rabbit was the lowest-ranked Gigant, but its height itself was 4M on average, almost no difference from Tito, who was just above it.

At most, about 30 cm.

It was a very small difference considering that there is a difference of almost 2M between Tito and the next class.

But that 30cm made a very big difference. It is a part that considers the safety of the occupants.

In short, there were few parts on the Midjet that considered the safety of the occupants.

Some even call the midget a moving metal tube.

That’s why, if you don’t know anything else, if you want to get on the midget, you have to wear the proper combat clothes with protective magic.

“Okay.”

Abel opened his combat uniform and squeezed himself into it.

This combat uniform was purchased through the black market, and one function was fine, but the problem was the size.

The size was incredibly small.

Combat uniforms cannot be resized arbitrarily because various special materials and processing methods are used.

That’s why it was able to be purchased cheaply in the first place.

Abel hadn’t fully grown and hadn’t been properly nourished, so he was quite small, so he could wear it if he was forced to wear it.

“Turn it off… … done!”

After a lot of hard work, Abel tightened the final lock and wiped the sweat from his forehead with a cloth.

It took all sorts of hardships to put on, but once I put it on, there was no major hindrance to my movement.

I wondered how on earth that could be, but he said that was the ability of a rare battle suit.

Abel did a quick stretch in place, then put the ladder in front of the rabbit’s cockpit.

Climbing up the ladder and lifting the cockpit curtain, the interior was revealed with a clatter and clatter.

“good.”

Abel smiled and pushed himself into it.

Unlike the combat uniform, which was an ill-fitting suit, the inside of the cockpit fit his body perfectly.

Firmly positioned, Abel placed his hand on the rabbit’s core.

Woo-woo-!

Eventually, with a strange feeling, Rabbit woke up.

The windshield lowered by itself and the lights inside the cockpit came on.

At the same time, Abel felt a sense of omnipotence filling his entire body.

It was an intense pleasure that did not get tired of repeating it over and over again.

Abel said with twinkling eyes.

“Rabbit. let’s go.”

There was no reply this time, but the rabbit’s arm moved with those words.

Lift the heavy ladder like paper and put it aside.

It stepped forward with its huge feet.

thump, thump-!

The surroundings were crowded and noisy.

However, when the gigantic Gigant started to move, people’s eyes gathered.

If it was an ordinary Gigant, that gaze would have been scattered quickly. However, it is Abel who is walking now.

The morning star of this gutter-like underground arena. brilliant divinity.

Abel.

“kid! Come and win today!”

“cheer up!”

cheer. Cheering.

“Sheesh. About the skinny kid.”

“You’re lucky, lucky.”

jealousy and envy.

“and… … .”

and envy.

A jumble of emotions pierces the cockpit and stabs you in the body.

However, instead of feeling pressured by him, Abel gave a deep smile.

‘This is the first step.’

The main story of the game has not even begun yet. So I didn’t fall behind.

If you take this chance… … .

‘Unconditionally enter the mainstream.’

can enter the academy.

You can enter the main story of the game.

Instead of calming the heat that was rising from the depths of his heart, Abel used it as a driving force to keep walking.

After exiting the chaotic garage and passing through a few doors, a decently sized room appeared.

It was the waiting room for players.

Standing in the waiting room, Abel raised the tension and thought.

‘There is only one chance.’

The goal was not to win mediocre, but to show myself clearly.

own talents and skills.

Because today, there will be a special guest in the audience.

Victory is of no avail if you don’t show it.

Abel made up his mind and looked into the void. To be precise, the message window floating there.

[Quest: Frog in the Well (5)]

[Receive Scarlett’s ‘choice’ from the Flame Spear]

The end of a long series of quests.

The clearing of this quest that made me struggle for over six months is just around the corner.

at that time.

aaa-!

People’s cheers echoed from beyond the waiting room.

‘Looks like a winner.’

As soon as I thought about it, a bald middle-aged man in a suit entered the waiting room.

“Two minutes later.”

-yes.

A voice amplified by Gigant resonated throughout the room.

The bald man frowned and nodded, then went and stood against the wall in front of the waiting room.

Abel stared at the wall as if he were looking at an enemy, clearing the thoughts in his head.

Wandering thoughts in competitions are poison.

“1 min.”

The middle-aged man speaks again.

Abel gave strength to the hand holding the core.

Weee woman

When another minute or so has passed. His voice came from the middle-aged man along with a vibrating sound.

“Win and come.”

There was no time to answer.

This is because the walls that were blocking the way began to open on both sides.

Abel stepped between them without hesitation.

I took only two steps, but the air changed dramatically.

colorful lighting.

Hundreds of pairs of pupils.

“Waaa-!”

“Rabbit! Rabbit! Rabbit!”

“Giant Slayer! Destroy them all!”

A beat later, a louder cheer was heard than before.

Giant Slayer. It is a nickname for him and Rabbit.

Abel is below average in height, because Rabbit is also shorter than average.

In general, if there is such a difference in height, the smaller one is at a disadvantage.

Generally.

However, Abel and Rabbit earned the nickname “giant slayers” by beating and destroying all the bigger ones.

“Waaa-!”

The audience seats and the arena were very close, as if safety was not a concern.

Thanks to this, even though I was riding inside the rabbit, my ears were bleeding.

Abel waved lightly as he entered the center of the arena, and soon heard the crowd cheering for another.

“Lumberjack! Lumberjack!”

“Let’s do the ax properly! Son of a b*tch!”

“I bet my entire fortune! If you don’t win, I’ll put an ax through your head!”

Lumberjack.

It means lumberjack, and it is also the nickname of the opponent in this match.

It was nicknamed because he cut down the enemy with an ax as if he was felling trees.

I saw Lumberjack in front of me.

The aircraft is a midget class like a rabbit.

However, the height was markedly different. It was roughly 4.3m tall, which was close to Tito’s class.

There, in one hand, he was holding a huge axe, but it was not too big.

What Rabbit is holding in his hand is a mass production sword that is shabby compared to him.

Everyone could see that Rabbit was thirteen.

[ruler! This match is the two aces of our arena! Lumberjack vs. Rabbit! Rabbit the Giant Slayer vs. Psycho Lumberjack!]

“Wowaaa!”

While the host shouted to cheer up the atmosphere, Abel slightly rolled his eyes.

It is said that it is forbidden to think about other things before the game, but it was necessary.

Abel’s eyes, which were busy scanning the seats, stopped in one place at some point.

Burning red hair and eyes. sharp eyes. A bird-shaped brooch attached to the collar.

‘come.’

Chloride Window. 3 divinities of the empire.

Scarlett.

A Gigant Rider who will lead Abel to the ‘Academy’.

To that academy where all the main story takes place.

‘If I can’t get into the academy, I can’t do anything.’

this place.

To be precise, the game based on this place is thoroughly focused on the main characters and the main characters.

Therefore, in order to intervene in the main scenario, you must enter the academy unconditionally.

If the future of this world follows the ‘happy ending’ in the game, there will be no problem.

But what if not? What if the future has a bad ending?

this world will perish

“Ohhhhh!”

“okay! That’s it! Kill them!”

Abel raised his head at the sound of people cheering even louder.

Then I saw Lumberjack swinging his ax in the air.

When Lumberjack felt Rabbit’s gaze, he even pretended to slash his throat with an axe.

In response, Abel kindly raised his middle finger.

The meaning is the same here.

A violent reaction came back at once.

“ruler!”

The moderator shouted loudly as if he thought the atmosphere had heated up enough.

[Looks like you’ve got enough heat now! If I drag it any longer, I’ll be hit with a knife, so let’s start right away!]

Abel immediately had an image in his mind.

Then Rabbit clenched both fists.

As the wizards waiting under the arena stretched out their hands, a blue film completely wrapped around the arena.

Now that the heat in the hall has reached its peak. The presenter grinned and shouted.

[game… … start!]

Quaang-!

At the same time, Rabbit kicked the ground.
