I Became a Genius at Gigant Academy

The moment Abel struck Kaul’s body.

Except for a few cadets, everyone saw the scene and no one was surprised.

They talked to each other with awkward smiles trying to accept the nonsense.

“I-I guess you hit me on purpose?”

“I guess so. It must have been to save the freshman’s life and do that. huh?”

“It will. maybe?”

No one had a definitive answer to the question.

Because it was such an amazing sight.

But there was one other person who was more surprised than anyone else.

‘I couldn’t avoid it?’

The person who was slapped in the jaw by Abel.

It was a cowl.

It’s true that I was a bit careless at first, but this time I didn’t even care.

I accepted that my opponent was far above the level of an ordinary freshman and dealt with it carefully.

However, unlike the first time when he even let go of the attack, this time he was hit properly in the jaw.

Of course, the conditions were extremely unfavorable to Kaul.

The aircraft he was riding was not adjusted and was for training with degraded specifications, and it was a Milles class that could not fully capture his specifications.

Moreover, he said that he did not move from the spot, so it was impossible to dodge at all.

But what does that mean?

‘I’m right.’

The difference in skills between Kaul and Abel was vast.

If you fight right, 10 times you will win all 10 times. This is because the level of experience is different.

In other words, no matter what kind of bad condition you bring and attach, it is impossible to be hit by the freshman’s attack as usual.

Kaul slowly opened his heavily closed mouth.

-Abel.

-yes.

-Your talent is real.

Since he was in the aircraft, only his voice came through, but he was infinitely serious.

– I’ll tell you more in the future. So that your talents can bloom splendidly.

While working as a teacher at the academy, he had seen many people called geniuses.

But it was the first time he had said such a thing.

Kaul was convinced.

That this young boy will become one of the pillars that will support the empire in the future.

Abel responded in a serious voice to his words.

-So, is a wish really possible? stuff or something?

Kaul paused at the question.

Abel looked at the cowl suspiciously and asked.

-… … Surely you didn’t mean to sneak past it, did you?

-Can you do that?

Kaul hurriedly answered Abel’s question, then spoke in a barely audible voice.

-Just, that… … It just doesn’t have to be too expensive.

It was a statement full of sincerity.

* * *

Kaul wasn’t a man who was offended by his blows.

Rather, it was quite the opposite.

Admiring his outstanding talent, he acknowledged Abel.

In addition, Abel said he would just do the physical training he was exempted from.

It must have been difficult, but it was because Abel was also feeling a lot of regret about his stamina.

Kaul, who was a little downcast, told me this and that, almost as if he were tutoring until the exhilarating class was over.

It was a pretty useful time.

“You are following me better than I thought. Good job.”

After the hellish physical training, Kaul patted Abel on the shoulder and grinned.

The cowl’s white teeth gleamed and gleamed.

“Have you thought about your wish?”

“ring… … .”

Abel spoke out unconsciously in a state of exhaustion, but hastily shut his mouth.

At some point, my true feelings almost came out.

“go? and what?”

“Ah, I was going to say that you had a hard time. I will think about the wish slowly.”

“okay. First of all, go over there and rest. Class will end as soon as we finish organizing.”

Fortunately, Kaul didn’t ask further and walked to one side.

Abel looked at his back.

Through the tight clothing, I could see angry back muscles moving.

‘If I ask if I can’t call her gorilla, she’ll get scolded.’

It was an item in the challenge, but it seemed like I couldn’t handle it.

‘I’ll have to think about it some more.’

Abel turned his head to one side as he pondered what to wish for.

Kugu Palace-.

What came into Abel’s field of vision was the appearance of the aircraft being moved to another location one after another.

Gigant kept it aside and only took it out during class, so his gaseous lupus was transferred as well.

You can’t just park it next to a dormitory.

Abel licked his lips in regret.

I wanted to ride a little more, but my stamina was on the verge of running out anyway, so I couldn’t do anything even if I rode it.

“Everyone suffered a lot. I expect everyone to walk at least next time, so think about how to move well. Listen to other classes diligently.”

After saying that, Kaul announced the end of the class.

Abel greeted the other cadets and moved on.

“Abel! Are you going to the dormitory?”

“Oh, I will die. I want to lie down for a bit.”

Fortunately, there is time until the next class, so you can take a break.

Daniel chattered beside him to see if he wasn’t tired, but Abel neatly ignored it and went on with his thoughts.

‘I need to train my stamina even harder.’

Even though it was above average, it was not the only thing that was disappointing when driving the Milles-class Gigant.

Even more so when you think about your goals.

It is not possible to take the top spot for all four years with ordinary efforts.

Because there is no one less talented here.

It wasn’t just because of the simple symbolism that they wanted to occupy the top spot.

‘Actually, what I covet the most are the rewards.’

Del Modor Academy invests generously in outstanding people.

Weapons, airframe upgrades, and even vision.

For a strong spec, it was a pity to miss either one.

Thinking of the future ahead, we need to become stronger by mobilizing everything we know.

Didn’t Lupus also get it because he took the top spot?

As my thoughts kept going one after another, a memory I had forgotten suddenly came to mind.

‘Come to think of it, that’s tomorrow… … Was it?’

Even though I was digging into the game like crazy, I didn’t remember everything.

Usually, I would think of something other than big and bold information, but it would suddenly come to my mind, and it is still like that now.

The day after the main character gets his first aircraft, an incident occurs and a special class is organized.

The more I thought about it, the more similar the timing was.

“Oh, tomorrow is theory class all day. My head hurts already.”

Daniel was talking hard despite Abel’s rough answers. Abel glanced at him and said.

“You won’t have much headache tomorrow.”

“huh? What are you talking about?”

“There is such a thing.”

Daniel persistently asked, but Abel eagerly ignored it again.

Soon after, the two arrived at the dormitory, and Abel quickly tried to return to his room. But there was an unexpected person in the hall.

It was the violin this time.

As soon as she found Abel, she came over and said,

“Maybe, can we talk now? Class ended earlier than expected.”

Although he was a little tired, having a short conversation was no problem, so Abel nodded.

“okay.”

“then… … Let’s talk in a quiet place.”

Daniel’s eyes widened.

Anyone who sees it will know what you said to him.

“uh. Daniel, see you later.”

Abel spoke to Daniel and walked along the fiddle.

After arriving at a moderately deserted place, Iolin stopped and looked at Abel.

Abel stared at the violin nervously.

‘Why did you ask to talk separately?’

He had been paying attention to him knowingly or unknowingly, as he had felt Eolin’s gaze several times before.

Could it be that he felt something like Mei?

“that… … .”

Iolyn stuttered a few times with an uncharacteristically nervous expression before finally speaking.

“Can I learn how to handle Gigant well?”

It was a hard tone, but there was earnestness in it.

Abel was taken aback by the completely unexpected words.

‘A violin for me?’

Even though it was the first time we had a direct conversation, I knew he wasn’t the type to seek help easily.

It was even more surprising when he thought that he was the target, a classmate he had never had a conversation with.

“Gigant?”

“huh.”

“Why me?”

Abel’s question was answered calmly.

“Entrance exams and mock battles. And even if you haven’t seen it yourself, you’ve heard about it. I think your talent is on a different level than the other kids.”

“… … Considering your skills, isn’t it better to learn from the instructors?”

Abel thinks he’s talented, but this is Del Modor Academy.

Among the teachers, there are many outstanding gigant riders, and if it is later, Abel is far below their level.

The teachers here weren’t particularly reluctant to ask students to teach.

Rather, it was more likely that he would like it as much as Kaul.

Ioline couldn’t answer his question right away.

“that… … .”

Iolin, contemplating whether or not to say something, bit her lip once and continued.

“If you give me advice on Gigant management, I will help you with mana management.”

Abel looked at her instead of asking the question again.

Unless he was an idiot, he could at least understand that Eolin had a reason to be silent in asking him for help.

You don’t have to listen to Ellin’s request, but… … .

“okay.”

If the deal appeals to you, there is no reason to reject it.

If nothing else, Eolin’s talent for managing mana is definitely higher than Abel’s.

Above all, Iolin was one of the people Abel was originally trying to make friends with, so it was a good thing.

‘I’ll have to find out why he asked for help.’

Iolin’s expression brightened at Abel’s acceptance.

Maybe it’s because he doesn’t have an original expression, so when he smiles, his impression looks completely different.

“thank you. Then, by any chance, do you have time tomorrow evening?”

“tomorrow? it won’t be tomorrow Let’s do it the day after tomorrow.”

If my memory is not wrong, there will be no time for personal training tomorrow.

Iolin nodded at Abel’s words, thanked him again, and left first.

Abel also stood for a while before heading to his room.

* * *

smart-.

Abel’s eyes widened at the sound of someone knocking on the door.

I blinked a few times and looked at the ceiling, but there was another knock, as if urging me on.

“yes.”

“Gather in the main hall by 20 minutes.”

It was the voice of the housekeeper.

“All right.”

There was no answer coming back.

Abel got off the bed and went straight into the shower.

After quickly washing and changing clothes, only 10 minutes had passed.

Abel dried his hair with a towel and immediately opened the door and went outside.

Looking outside through the window in the hallway, I could see the dingy dormitory garden.

Abel quietly walked down the hallway and down the stairs at the end to the first floor.

“Cadet Abel Klein.”

When I arrived below, Tania, who had been waiting for me, called Abel’s name.

“yes.”

“I arrived early, so it’s 3 shops.”

“thank you.”

Abel bowed his head and stood in front of Tania.

Tania checked something on the paper and looked up at Abel.

“Aren’t you curious about what happened?”

I didn’t say anything the day before, but I quickly got ready and came out and didn’t ask any questions, so it must have felt rather strange.

Abel responded calmly.

“I thought something must have happened.”

“… … okay. I’ll explain the details once I get them all together.”

“yes.”

Knowing what was going on anyway, Abel stood still and waited.

After about a minute, I saw Daniel rushing down the stairs.

Daniel tried to say hello in a loud voice as usual, but calmly bowed his head, perhaps realizing that it was still early in the morning.

“Come over here and stand.”

“yes.”

And so, one after another, the cadets showed up.

violin. henna. June. rian. All were special class cadets.

The last ones to come out were Charlotte and May, but to be exact, Charlotte carried May on her back.

“… … Mei didn’t wake up.”

Charlotte said in a low voice as her eyes focused on her.

It wasn’t until May arrived on the first floor that she woke up with a stutter and stood on her feet.

After confirming that everyone had gathered, Tania opened her mouth.

“You guys are not attending regular classes today.”

At those words, curiosity lit up in everyone’s eyes. Tania calmly continued.

“There is a means of transport ready in front of the dormitory, so we will get on it and return around 10:00 pm.”

“Where are you going?”

Rian asked cautiously, and Tania looked at him and said,

“Friday morning. Special permission has been given.”

A way of speaking that feels insipid beyond calm.

“It is permission to enter the Wall of Glory.”

wall of glory.

The Great Shield of the Empire and the starting point of the main scenario.

The start of the offensive was a sign that the scenario was starting to roll in earnest.

“There you will learn exactly what a colossus is and how it works on the front lines.”

Tania’s toneless voice brought tension to everyone’s faces.

Why did Abel himself give up a comfortable life and work hard to die, and why did he feel insecure?

All the answers were on the wall of glory.

one more there.

There, the player faces a bad ending for the first time.

If there is not much difference, Abel’s future will be the same. However, there is not only one predestined future.

crisis or opportunity.

Abel saw two paths.
