I Became a Genius at Gigant Academy

A powerful force that I had never felt before filled my whole body.

Even Abel was aware of the light emanating from the pattern itself.

So, of course, I thought that the light and the current phenomenon might have something to do with it.

But now I couldn’t afford to think deeply about it.

One thing to do now.

It was just swinging a sword.

cooong!

Abel clenched his sword and jumped high, kicking off the ground.

Woo-woo-!

The tail of the colossus just barely passed below.

Abel raised his sword high and slashed it down, ignoring the wind pressure that hit the aircraft.

Quagga Gagagak!

The sword scraped through the giant’s skin with the sound of metal clashing.

But Abel was not disappointed.

It was because he knew that the skin of the giant god was more like Gigant’s outer armor rather than leather.

Whoo-!

That’s why the Double Attack skill had been activated from the beginning.

Kwajik-!

Shhhhh!

Blue blood spurted out with a rupture at the site where the sword struck first.

The giant let out a sharp scream and shook its body.

Even if he endured it once, he could not block the second attack due to the skill effect.

Originally, I thought it would take four or five attacks to barely break through, but it was easier than expected.

‘The power is overflowing.’

As a rule of thumb, it felt like Gigant’s output had at least doubled.

Whoa!

Perhaps it was because of the wounds on his body, the giant started to focus on Abel after that.

Quaang-! bang!

Although he became more out of breath when he was hit by a concentrated attack, Abel avoided all attacks as if performing an acrobatic stunt.

‘Maybe it’s possible as it is!’

I was happy to be there.

In the first place, his goal was not to defeat the giant, but to kill time.

The more the giant rushed at him, aiming only for himself, the higher the chance that the plan would succeed.

But that didn’t mean I was completely optimistic about the situation.

‘But I can’t just avoid it forever.’

Unprecedented power that suddenly rose up could disappear at any time, just like when it appeared.

So I had to do as much damage as possible before disappearing.

‘I wish I could use fairy tales.’

He had to get closer to inflict a fatal wound, so Abel thought to himself as he waited for an opportunity to strike.

The problem was that the giant was only focusing on Abel, so he had no chance to use his only stealth skill, Assimilation.

If you try to use it while your opponent is concentrating on it, they will get caught right away.

When you are thinking about how to create an opportunity.

Woo-woo-woo-kwaaang!

Suddenly, a stream of blue light flew from somewhere and hit the giant’s head.

At the last moment, he twisted his head and seemed to avoid fatal injuries, but the colossus staggered away from the shock.

-Even if you run away, you will only be caught and killed! Make the most of your time like Abel! If it seems dangerous, fall right back!

Then came Henna’s cry.

The previous blow was Henna’s Demonic Cannon.

Her melee combat skills were still poor, but as Abel knew, her ranged attack skills were outstanding.

It was an attack that could damage a giant.

Those who were hardened and did not know what to do joined the battle one by one.

There were still few of them, but that was enough.

When the giant came to his senses. Abel’s figure had already disappeared.

-Don’t overdo it and get as much attention as possible!

Henna commanded by using magic cannons in succession, and the others fought according to her command.

However, it could not be said that the war situation was unconditionally good.

If the battle continued like this, there was a very high probability that he would collapse before the support team arrived.

Suuu-.

In the meantime, Abel moved as carefully as possible.

The giants show slightly different characteristics for each individual, but there were characteristics that were shared by basically similar ‘species’.

Among them are weaknesses.

‘Generally, polyps have two weaknesses.’

One place is the jewel on the forehead.

The jewel, which glowed softly in green, seemed to be shining openly to aim for this place.

The problem was that destroying the jewel would kill instantly, but destroying the jewel was very tricky.

To put it bluntly, no one had enough destructive power to destroy that jewel here and now.

‘I don’t know if I was originally on the aircraft.’

It was just imagination.

So what I should be aiming for now is not the forehead, but another weakness.

Shhhhh!

The giant, who had been attacked by several people, stood upright, perhaps in anger.

Abel saw it and opened his eyes wide.

That posture was a preparation posture before launching a wide-ranging attack.

If left as is, everything would be swept away.

That’s why Abel increased the speed to the maximum without the assimilation being resolved.

The lucky thing was that as he stood up, his second weak point became apparent.

The second weakness of the colossus.

In general, it is a weakness that all ‘dragon’ giants have.

It was an inverted scale in the middle of the torso.

percussion-!

When they reached a certain distance, Abel jumped towards the giant’s torso.

bang!

When it landed roughly on the giant’s torso, it twisted in surprise.

But Abel did not stop.

Quaang!

Even while the giant struggled for a long time, Abel climbed up the body without hesitation.

Shrrr

When they reached the end of the line, the giant gave up defense and tried to aim only for Abel, perhaps feeling the danger.

But the others also realized that Abel was up to something.

-now!

With Henna’s cry, Gigant launched an all-out attack as if they had been waiting.

Among them, Mei’s performance was dazzling.

Stepping on the trees around her and leaping high, she slashed the giant’s throat deeply with the swords in both hands.

The attacks of the others also inflicted wounds on their torsos.

Kyaaagh!

Thanks to this, the giant had to writhe in pain once again.

And in that gap, Abel reached just below the wrath.

– Hoo-wook.

Exhaling a hot breath, Abel raised his sword high towards the colossus’ wrath.

I didn’t care about my lack of stamina or anything.

Anyway, this is your last chance.

If you don’t inflict as much damage as possible, you’ll be swept away by the enraged giant.

Woo-woo-!

That’s why Abel used two skills at the same time, putting a bunch of mana into his core.

[Strike, double attack]

Quaang-! Kwajik!

aaa!

As Abel’s powerful sword struck the enemy one after another, the giant screamed madly and twisted his body.

Abel was in danger as if he would fall out at any moment, but he desperately persevered.

This attack was just a preparation to make a gap in the hard fight, the actual attack was separate.

As soon as he gripped his sword tightly, Abel pushed all his remaining mana into his core.

Kurrr!

The sound of thunder echoed around the sword along with brainstorming.

At that time, the giant tried to escape to the basement as if he thought he couldn’t do it anymore.

The giant started to run away quickly underground, but Abel calmly waited for all the energy to gather.

Just before Abel and the colossus disappear underground.

[Thunderbolt spear]

Abel jumped to the side and threw the sword full of brain energy at the wretch.

A light flashes… … .

aaang-!

A loud roar followed.

Even as he fell, Abel watched as the sword shattered the evil and dug deep.

The giant trembled as if it had been electrocuted, then stopped moving.

‘More than I thought… … It worked better.’

Abel thought about that and blinked his eyes.

Right after the last attack was fired, an unbearable drowsiness came over me.

The comforting thing was that he gave the colossus a proper blow.

At this point, there seemed to be no need to worry any longer.

-… … bell!

It sounded like someone was calling him, but he couldn’t answer.

thud-!

In the meantime, it seemed that something had hit his machine, but Abel could no longer overcome the stress and closed his eyes.

aaah-!

And a beat later, a blue light enveloped him.

* * *

Tit, Tit -.

A bird chirped somewhere.

Abel tossed and turned at the sound. Then, a strangely soft feeling touched his head.

‘Was the pillow so soft… … ?’

Abel, who felt doubt in the middle of a dream, opened his eyes suddenly.

But what came into sight was not a pillow, but something dark blue.

‘It looks just like the color of my training clothes.’

Thinking about that, I took a closer look, and I saw the Academy’s pattern engraved on one side.

‘This is also the pattern on the training suit… … ?’

Only then did Abel, who felt strange, hurriedly raise his upper body.

“Ugh.”

When I suddenly got up, pain rushed through my whole body along with strong dizziness.

It felt like a hangover and muscle pain came at once.

‘Magic Exhaustion… … is it.’

Even in the middle of the pain, I went to guess why the current state is like this.

In the end, the aftereffects of squeezing mana to the limit came.

Then, a voice came from behind.

“Are you awake?”

Abel turned his head back. And I saw May sitting there.

“may?”

“huh.”

The voice was so calm that Abel stayed blankly and then looked around.

The two of them were in the middle of the forest.

There were no other people around, and I saw two Gigant lying not far away.

As Abel looked at Gigant, May opened her mouth again.

“The aircraft is severely damaged and you seem to be in a bad condition, so I took it out first.”

“ah… … okay?”

“huh.”

The conversation was interrupted for a moment, but Abel could not hold back his doubts and opened his mouth quickly.

“Where are you? Where are the other kids?”

“There are no other kids. And I don’t know where this is.”

“that is… … .”

Abel stopped trying to say something and stared into space for a moment.

After coming to my senses, it was because the message window on one side of my field of view caught my eye.

There were messages floating in my mind, of course they were things I had no memory of seeing.

[Excellent Achievement Accomplished!]

[The title ‘Colossus Adversary’ has been acquired. All stats increase by 10%.]

[Your Mastery of Double Attack has reached 100%. The skill evolves when the conditions are met.]

[The proficiency of the Lightning Spear has exceeded 30%. Its power is strengthened.]

It was an understandable message so far.

It was because only the first year, and even that, rode a supply Gigant and fought the giant.

However, the message after that was a little different.

[Absorbs some of the giant’s abilities.]

[Physical abilities increase significantly.]

[The skill ‘Pear’ has been acquired.]

[The soul of the giant dwells in the pattern. (1/3)]

These were the messages related to the colossi.

‘Wasn’t this only appearing when the opponent was defeated?’

Abel narrowed his eyes in an incomprehensible situation. However, upon further reflection, another possibility came to mind.

‘Did the support team arrive after passing out and defeat the giant?’

I thought that might be the case.

The support team took it down, but you may have been classified as the biggest contributor and the above message came up.

It’s a game-like idea, but right away, the system itself is game-based, so it wasn’t that strange.

“How long do you remember?”

When I was thinking for a while, Mei started talking to me.

Only then did Abel stop thinking to himself and answer the question.

“How long do you remember?”

“Before you pass out.”

“ah.”

Abel understood the question and answered.

“I fainted right after the attack. I think I bumped into something.”

“I caught it because it would be dangerous if it fell as it is. So my Gigant is also completely broken on the arm side.”

“really? are you okay?”

Abel asked in surprise, and May paused for a moment before answering.

“huh… … . More important than that is what comes next.”

“next?”

“Suddenly, a blue light spread around you, and when you woke up, it was here.”

“ah.”

At May’s question, it was only then that I could understand why the two of us were alone in such a lonely place.

A strange phenomenon occurred around Abel, and Mei, who was with him, was swept away.

Also, after listening to the story at the time, there was something I guessed.

‘ruins!’

In this forest, there was only one thing that would suddenly shift into space.

The ruins called themselves.
