I Became a Genius at Gigant Academy

Digger was a mid-level giant resembling a mole.

Abel didn’t know much about moles, but he knew very well about diggers.

“Keeik!”

Popping out of the ground, the digger immediately swung his front paw at Abel.

At the tip of its feet were claws that resembled weapons.

Wedge ah ah ah-!

Abel avoided the attack by a narrow margin.

thump, thump-!

Then, this time, a fragment of another giant hit Abel with a torso.

Digger wasn’t the only thing Abel had to deal with at the moment. It was because there were still three fragments of the giants left around.

Abel thought while sliding to the left after activating the Blessing of Wind.

‘But the first thing I need to get rid of is D.’

The fragments of other giants are the end of direct attacks, but the digger has a troublesome characteristic of moving freely on the ground.

If left unattended, they may attack others.

thud!

Woo woo woo woo-!

As soon as Abel finished his judgment, he activated Blessing of Wind at full output.

Gigant, which had been sliding sideways, shot forward as if it were bouncing.

The Digger lifted his feet when he saw Abel coming head-on.

Pew-!

But just before Digger could swing his front paw, Abel used Blessing of Wind again and turned sharply.

Whoops!

Digger’s front foot hit the floor in vain.

At that time, Abel reached Digger’s left.

Digger, who saw that, hurriedly tried to turn around, but by then Abel had already raised his sword.

Hwareuk!

The sword, which looked like a living flame, burned brightly and pierced the digger’s torso.

Quadd Deuk!

“Keee, )

Along with the sound of piercing the fabric, the smell of burnt meat and the smell of cooking meat spread out.

Digger twisted his body a lot, losing his mind.

aaang-!

However, whether it was classified as intermediate for no reason, even an attack made while insane was threatening enough.

Of course, it was an attack that would be of no use if it didn’t hit.

Phew-!

Abel used the Blessing of Wind and moved at insanely fast speeds, changing direction.

Digger, whose anger welled up to the tip of his head, relentlessly aimed at Abel, but his attacks only missed each time.

-I don’t know who the monster is?

At first, Daniel, who was startled by the appearance of the digger, muttered in a broken voice.

It was because the more I looked, the more pitiful Digger looked than Abel.

Apart from that feeling, though, he tried diligently wielding his weapon and approaching Abel.

“Hoo-wook.”

Abel was thinking of ending the digger before then.

Exhaling a hot breath, Abel kicked off the ground and jumped into the sky.

Digger thought this was an opportunity and tried to hit Abel with all his might.

And the moment the claw and Abel’s aircraft were about to collide.

For an instant, blue light spread around Lupus.

aaagh!

A roar rang out.

At the same time, the strong impact of the guardian’s shield stopped operating.

But that didn’t matter too much.

The shield did its job.

Abel, who took advantage of the shock towards himself, rose to a higher place.

He grabbed the sword that was burning red and fell down.

A red line was drawn in the blue sky.

The line was pointing towards Digger’s head, which staggered as his conversion attack was blocked.

and right after that.

Quadd Deuk!

With an eerie sound, the sword pierced the digger from his shoulder to his chest.

A fatal blow even at first glance.

“Kikii profit!”

Digger let out a terrifying scream.

But Abel chuckled and clicked his tongue.

Originally, it was aimed at the head, but it was because Digger twisted his body right before the collision.

The misfortune didn’t end there.

Knock!

Digger’s front foot, which he had been swinging randomly, landed on Abel. And as soon as it touched, Digger hugged Abel’s aircraft tightly.

thump, thump-!

Instead of attacking Abel, Digger dragged him along and ran into the burrow he came out of.

It was such an agile movement that I couldn’t figure out where the hell that power came from.

Whoop-!

The vision around her suddenly darkened.

Abel felt the strength of the digger’s arms around him grow stronger instead of weakening.

‘Am I squeezing the last bit of strength?’

It looked as if he had given up on surviving altogether and was burning his last life.

‘How stupid.’

Abel laughed at such a digger.

On the surface, it seemed that Abel was being dragged helplessly, but in reality it was the opposite.

Abel had been captured on purpose to lure him into the burrow.

The reason was simple.

It was because if I kept pushing from above and the digger escaped into the burrow, it would be a hassle.

“Keee!”

Digger stuck his snout while holding Abel in the middle of it.

Apart from being captured as a burrow as per the operation, Digger was still a threat.

It was because the space was so small that even Abel couldn’t move freely.

But Digger didn’t know yet.

It was that it was not something that could only be lit with a sword.

Roaring-!

The moment Abel concentrated, sparks rose from Gigant’s fist.

In the first place, these flames did not damage Abel’s aircraft.

If there was damage, I would have had to change my sword every time I used the ability.

The heat is separate from him, but to Abel it was just a little muggy.

“Keee!”

Digger struggled as he realized something was wrong when he saw the sparks he had lit with his bare fists.

This time, Abel held onto the digger tightly.

Roaring-.

The flames quickly moved to Digger, making him even more miserable.

Now, if you wait for it to burn completely, it will be over.

However, the digger who struggled for a long time suddenly stopped.

When you look at it with curious eyes.

-You usurper! It does not belong to you!

An unfamiliar voice rang in my head.

Abel looked at the digger in shock. And then I noticed that there was a little red light in those big eyes.

Seeing that, Abel realized that someone other than a digger had borrowed the guy’s body to talk to him.

-mind control… … . Are you a commander? Where are you hiding?

-I have nothing to say to the usurper!

With that said, Digger thrust his serrated teeth at Abel.

Knock!

Abel struggled, barely holding on to his snout with one arm.

It was quite frightening to see him try to attack without flinching even while his whole body was on fire.

But Abel replied with a sneer.

– Well, if you’re going to do that, don’t talk to me.

I’ve been through situations similar to this many times before.

Even though they seemed to be able to communicate, they knew very well that no one would answer kindly.

-You guys will never beat us!

In the meantime, Digger started talking to Abel as if trying to complicate his mind.

but… … .

-Okay, stop dying!

Without hesitation, Abel inserted his other hand between the gaping gap in the digger’s mouth.

In an instant, the inside of the mouth was dyed red.

“talent… … urg!”

At some point, Abel felt the force pushing him disappear.

It had quite a tough vitality, but it couldn’t endure until the inside of the body was completely burned.

Abel slowly drew his fist and stepped back.

coo-!

Then, the huge body of the digger collapsed with a loud noise.

“Whoa.”

Seeing that, Abel removed one hand from his core and wiped away sweat.

Since coming here, I’ve squeezed my strength and bumped into it several times, but the fatigue I feel now is stronger than ever.

Gradually, he too would have reached his limit.

Kugoong-.

Then, I felt the oyster shake.

Abel and Digger struggled and became unstable.

In order to avoid being buried alive, Abel hurriedly moved without a moment’s rest.

As soon as we traced back the path the digger had taken us to, we soon saw the exit of the den.

When I planted my feet firmly on one side of the wall to climb up there.

-Abel!

-are you okay?

Other cadets emerged from above the burrow.

They hurriedly reached out their hands when they saw Abel’s gigant covered in soot.

Seeing this, Abel smiled and reached out to grab Daniel’s and Cynthia’s outstretched hands.

coo-!

After coming out with the help of the two, I saw a completely organized battlefield.

While fighting to the death inside the cave, it seemed that the battle was over.

Even the giants.

– You worked hard, Abel.

Kaul came over and spoke to Abel.

– It was truly a perfect battle.

At those words, Abel smiled and opened his mouth.

-thank you.

Abel felt with his whole body that the long struggle in the Delkan Mountains had come to an end.

* * *

The operation in the Delkan Mountains ended with great damage to the Empire.

After returning, I heard that after that, all forces of the 1st Corps were deployed in the direction of the Delkan Mountains.

It must be to make up for the vengeance and mistake of the last battle.

“I heard that even the generals are out on the battlefield.”

“really? It’s no joke.”

The story was quite a topic, and the cadets were talking about it openly.

It’s not really a secret that the 1st corps put all their efforts into it, so it’s already spread throughout the academy.

While listening to the stories of other students like that.

“Did everyone get a good rest?”

Cowl walked over from afar and spoke in a loud voice.

The cadets all looked forward and answered in a loud voice.

“yes!”

today is Tuesday. And it was also the first class after returning from the Delkan Mountains.

Originally, it was to take a break during the weekend and go to class right away, but an additional break was given on Monday.

He returned a little later than the original schedule, and there must have been a problem with injured people in other classes.

“good. Everyone seems to be full of energy. The last training session was hard for everyone.”

Kaul took off his haste, then showed a little lightness and spoke in a serious voice.

“Perhaps the future practice will not be so easy. Everyone knows this because they experienced it, but it’s better to completely throw away memories from the first semester. Got it?”

“yes!”

“Well, I have to say that I did well. First of all, Abel! Come forward!”

Kaul changed his mood again and called out to Abel.

Abel, who was standing in the back, stepped forward at the call.

Then Kaul grinned and pulled something out of his bosom.

It was a silver square plaque.

“This is a reward for showing great performance in this practice. There is no special ceremony, but the situation is the situation, so understand.”

“thank you!”

Of course, there were no disappointments.

It’s like an award ceremony, it’s just annoying.

Abel was more interested in the reward Kaul had given him than him.

Kaul placed his hand on Abel’s hand.

Abel grinned when he confirmed what it was.

[Quest ‘Nangjungjichu’ has been completed!]

[As a reward, I acquired the Academy’s ‘Silver Grade Gigant Exclusive Arms’ option!]

A message popped up right in front of my eyes.

What Kaul had handed over was a plaque containing the right to freely take anything lower than silver rank among the weapons stored in the arsenal in the academy.

It was a suitable reward for Abel now.

When he took it and turned around.

clap clap clap-!

Applause was heard.

Daniel started the applause, and soon the other cadets clapped their hands as well, congratulating Abel.

There was an envious look mixed in the middle, but Abel responded with a grin.

It was a few days of hard work, but it was a rewarding moment.
