I Became a Genius at Gigant Academy

Every time he swung his sword, a red trail was drawn.

It was as if he was wielding a brush drenched in red paint.

The blue landscape was dyed red according to the movement of the brush.

– Hoo-wook.

I heard someone’s heavy breathing.

It was the sound of Luke’s breathing, slightly out of the boundary of the barrier.

Even riding on a Gigant cannot completely block the heat from penetrating. Perhaps the inside is like a steamer.

But there was no reason for Abel to care about Luke’s suffering.

‘He has strong self-esteem.’

Even though he opened his defense, it was Luke himself who kept his distance saying he didn’t want help.

It was a stubbornness to the point of being great.

-Abel, is your magic okay?

Similarly, Kaul, who was out of range of the shield, asked a question.

Unlike Luke’s, his voice was very calm.

There is also a difference in Gigant, but the difference in rider capacity is bigger than that.

A cowl would be able to maintain a constant body temperature with only magic power.

Abel answered while continuing to swing his sword.

– It doesn’t matter.

At the end of the last battle, magic had been restored to almost maximum, so there was plenty of magic power.

At the same speed as now, I could swing the sword for an hour longer.

-Then ask for another 10 minutes.

-yes.

As Abel followed Kaul’s command, he set fire to the surroundings without rest.

However, before the 10 minutes Kaul said had passed, a noticeable change occurred.

– The mark is not visible.

It was time to arrive at the original place, but there was not a single tree with a sign in sight.

At that, Kaul looked around and said.

-It seems that there is a limit to maintaining the ability. Abel. You can stop now. From now on, you have to move quickly. Let me know if any trees move at all.

Kaul said that and increased his walking speed. It was practically the same speed as running.

Everyone eagerly followed after him, examining the trees around him.

Before a few minutes had passed, Kaul pointed to one side and said.

– There!

Abel reflexively shifted his gaze and found the tree tilting and moving.

Originally, the Maze Tree was thoroughly disguised as a tree, but it seemed that the fire was transferred to the body and became impatient.

-Take care of it yourself. However, it must be approached with caution.

Instead of attacking directly, Kaul gave orders to the cadets.

– I’ll take care of it!

Then Luke ran forward.

I couldn’t tell if it was a chance to set the ball or to escape the heat, but the movement itself was great.

It was because the sword he raised while closing the distance in an instant was threatening enough.

The Maze Tree looked like it would be cut in two by the sword any moment.

-for a moment!

Then Kaul shouted in a loud voice. and right after that.

aaang-!

The tree that had been standing still suddenly moved like a whip and struck Luke’s aircraft.

The maize tree was not a single tree.

“Tsk.”

Abel clicked his tongue.

It was a fact known to anyone who had taken the class properly that a maize tree usually had two or three trees moving together.

– We approach too!

Abel gave a loud cry and stepped forward, brandishing a sword engulfed in flames.

I didn’t like Luke very much, but I couldn’t leave him alone.

Kiriririk!

Fortunately, the other cadets quickly did what they had to do.

Cynthia immediately took out an arrow and aimed it at the fleeing Maze Tree, while Daniel followed closely behind Abel holding a spear.

Whoa!

As he approached, the maize tree that had struck Luke threateningly swung its branches.

However, if he had approached unknowingly like Luke, there was no reason for him to suffer even though he knew of its existence.

Kwajik!

Abel cut off the branch of the maize tree that was aiming at him with his sword.

At that, Maze Tree trembled in pain.

-Daniel! please!

-huh!

Abel left the guy in Daniel’s back and chased the guy who quickly ran away.

If you miss it like this, that guy will take a seat somewhere else and try to feed the trouble.

Wedge Aeg!

At that moment, an arrow caught on fire flew from behind Abel’s back and pierced the body of the fleeing creature.

As the flames penetrated his body, Maze Tree’s movement slowed noticeably.

Thanks to this, Abel was able to close the distance in an instant, jumped up high, and lowered his sword.

Quagga gagagak-!

The sword split the maize tree from top to bottom.

It is a tough individual that can continue to regenerate as long as the torso is intact, but it cannot demonstrate its regenerative power even when its body is split in half.

The maize tree wriggled as it split in half, then sagged.

Its appearance was not so different from that of an ordinary tree.

Quadduk!

Shortly after Abel took down one, Daniel also took down Maze Tree from behind.

It seemed that after intensively attacking the middle part of the torso and making a hole, it grabbed and ripped off that part.

cooong, kung.

Right after defeating both of them like that. Luke, who had bounced away, quietly returned.

he was speechless

Kaul watched it for a while, then approached and confirmed that Maze Tree was dead before opening his mouth.

– It was a neat attack. every. and Luke.

-… … yes.

– There is a difference between bravery and recklessness. keep that in mind

-yes. sorry.

The evaluation ended there.

Kaul looked at the flames, which had not lost their momentum, and said,

-First of all, I’ll have to catch the flames and then track down the others. wait.

The fire did not spread as widely as expected.

It was actually a short distance because it continued to go round and round in a narrow space by the maize tree.

Kaul moved directly and began to subdue the flames.

It wasn’t in any unusual way.

Kwajijik!

I just ran around quickly, swinging my sword and stomping on it to put out the flames.

After completely suppressing the flames, Kaul spoke in a calm voice.

– I will continue the pursuit.

* * *

After subduing the Maze Tree, the pursuit went smoothly.

It was because I just had to follow the footsteps all the way.

In the first place, the gap was almost closed, so after about 40 minutes, the existence of the fragments of the giant was captured.

– Hmm.

Kaul stood on the slight slope and looked down.

There, the fragments of the giants they were chasing were gathered.

Two Iron Boars and one Spike.

At that level, it was enough power to deal with, but the problem was other beings.

‘They gathered around the giant.’

Right next to the fragments of the colossus he was chasing, lay a colossus resembling a rock golem, and there were fragments of other colossi around it.

It seemed that he had not run away blindly, but was desperately moving towards the giants nearby.

Kaul spoke to the others with the output of his voice as low as possible.

-This is not orthodoxy, but there is a story that fragments of a giant can instinctively sense the existence of a giant.

Pointing to the giant and its fragments, Kaul continued his explanation.

-It’s because there are many cases where the fragments of a giant gathered at a distant, invisible giant.

At that, the cadets only nodded.

Much of the relationship between the giant and its fragments was still shrouded in mystery.

This is because there are limits to what can be confirmed through experiments.

‘Because the fragments of the captured giants are different in many ways from those in the wild.’

The instinct to return to the colossus that Kaul said right away was also the same.

Apparently, it has been found several times in the wild.

However, the captured fragments of the giant did not show such an appearance at all.

It was the same even when he deliberately released the captive.

After a brief explanation, Kaul slowly raised his sword.

-Since the number of fragments of the giants that can be seen right now exceeds twenty thousand, it is judged that most of the people scattered around here must have gathered at that level. in other words.

said Kaul.

-If you deal with those guys, it means the mission is complete. Got it?

-yes.

At everyone’s answer, Kaul nodded and opened his mouth again.

-I will deal with the giant, so you guys take care of the rest. If someone is seriously injured, it is always the lowest point.

As soon as Kaul said that, he immediately kicked the ground.

cooong!

When Gigant appeared with a loud sound, the resting giant and its fragments reacted immediately.

In particular, the giant rushed at the cowl with agile movements that did not suit its gigantic size.

Wow!

Cowl’s sword collided with the giant’s fist.

And with that sound as a signal, the other cadets also ran down the slope.

The giant tried to move his body when he saw the cadets who appeared one beat late, but Kaul couldn’t let it go.

-Your opponent is me!

Cowl shouted loudly and began to attack the giant using his unique acceleration ability.

Thanks to this, the cadets could easily pass the giant and approach the debris behind it.

“Cheer up!”

The first to rush at the cadets were the Iron Boars.

There were three more besides the two I had tracked down, and the appearance of five of them running together was quite threatening.

Quaang!

But instead of stopping, Abel jumped high.

Because the road sloped downward, I could easily jump over the iron bore just by running as hard as I could.

The Iron Boers were taken aback by the Gigant that passed over their heads, but they couldn’t turn their bodies.

– Haaa!

It was because the other cadets rushed in and brandished their weapons.

Thanks to this, Abel was able to land in the middle of enemy lines without any hindrance.

“Gooo!”

As soon as he landed, the surrounding fragments rushed towards Abel.

Abel immediately activated Blessing of Wind.

Shhhhh-!

With a harsh sound, Abel’s aircraft moved forward at high speed.

The arms of the fragments that were about to attack Abel cut through the air.

Abel, on the other hand, stabbed his sword at another fragment behind him, where he stood defenseless.

Quadruped!

The sword lodged itself in the enemy’s neck without a chance to escape.

Chow ah!

Having completely slit his throat with force, Abel lowered himself and activated the guardian’s shield at full strength.

Kagagak-!

The attack of the blade tail, which was trying to sneak up and attack, was blocked by the shield and bounced off.

Abel stretched out his lowered body and cut the sword from bottom to top in one go.

Whoa!

The blade’s tail evaded the attack with a narrow gap, and the sword cut through the air.

The guy made a mocking expression on Abel and tried to wag his tail again.

Kwajik!

Abel’s sword, which had missed, bent and moved again in the same trajectory.

It triggered a double attack.

The blade tail did not react in time to the unexpected attack.

Kwajik!

The sword cut through the thick neck of the blade’s tail.

‘more!’

Abel did not stop there.

He knew that the more he ran as fast as he could, the safer the others were, and more than anything else, the quest was at stake.

bang!

After hitting the ground, Abel’s body became blurry and stretched out.

Abel, who moved at high speed to the location of another shadow through the shadow step, threw a strong attack and tore another fragment of the body apart.

– Wow… … .

-That crazy… … !

That appearance was enough to make the other cadets in the middle of the battle exclaim.

Abel’s performance was outstanding in the previous battle, but his appearance now was quite different.

It was like watching a wolf among a flock of sheep.

-more! more!

Abel swung his sword again and again while listening to Lupus’ cheers.

But then.

aaang-!

Suddenly, a part of the ground exploded and fragments of the giant came out.

The one who appeared there was the Digger, who had suddenly appeared in the last battle and embarrassed many people.

There is quite a distance between Abel and the other cadets who were deep behind enemy lines.

But Abel was not taken aback.

“I was still sorry.”

Rather, he smiled happily.

Knock-.

He lit a spark from his sword.

A flame that burns hotter than ever.
