I Became a Genius at Gigant Academy - I Became a Genius at Gigant Academy chapter 124

Immediately after checking the message.

Kugoong, kung-!

I heard the sound of something collapsing at my feet.

It seemed that the entire cave was collapsing, not just near the entrance.

‘I was lucky.’

The message that just appeared didn’t come from killing one or two more fragments of the giants, but it must have been thanks to those who died indirectly when the cave collapsed.

when you figured it out there.

Whewyyyyy-.

A blue stream flowed from the collapsed cave and was sucked into Abel’s body.

I was surprised and flinched for a moment.

Abel felt his mana, which was on the verge of depletion, fill up.

[Magic power increases significantly.]

message pops up.

-master? The flow of magical energy around me is unusual, so what’s going on?

I asked in a surprised voice if Lupus felt it too.

“Looks like you’ve awakened a new ability… … . A different ability than before.”

Abel looked around while answering that.

First of all, perhaps because the cave was destroyed, there was some room on the battlefield. Upon confirming that, Abel immediately opened the status window.

‘Status window.’

[Abel]

[Type: Human]

[Physical Rating: B]

[Tune rate: S]

[mana: A]

[Retention period: Lupus]

[Trait: Red Flame, Dragon Scale, Magic Steal]

[Skills: Resilience Enhancement, Double Attack, Torpedo Spear, Overflow, Shadow Step, Beginner Gigant Maintenance… … .]

The first thing that caught my eye was the magical power that had risen to the A grade.

After going up to B, the mana that had not changed for a long time was finally upgraded to the next level.

Then, Abel lowered his gaze slightly and discovered ‘Magical Steal’ added to his unique ability.

‘Is it a unique ability?’

Certainly, the message I just saw also said that the ability was activated, not a new skill.

If you think about it a bit more, you could say that this magic stealing ability was originally possessed by Abel.

‘It must be the power related to the sentence to be precise.’

Aside from being happy about gaining new abilities, my doubts about this sentence grew even bigger.

But I didn’t have time to delve into it right now.

Because the battle isn’t over yet.

-The right side of the defense line is dangerous!

Hearing someone shout, Abel came to his senses and put strength into his weapon grip again.

I was prepared to collapse and acted recklessly, but my physical condition wasn’t too bad.

It was because most of his mana had been restored with his newly acquired ability.

Somehow, it feels like my head has cleared up a little.

Abel found Mei, who was breathing nearby, and said.

-may. I’m getting some rest.

May looked up as if to say something, but Abel kicked the ground before he could hear an answer.

coo-!

Since the fragments of the giants that infiltrated the rear were almost cleaned up, Abel was able to return to the defensive line immediately.

The side that said it was dangerous was the side Luke was holding on to.

While the gaze was focused on the rear for a while, the fragments of the giant were gathered there to an extent that it was difficult to handle.

As soon as Abel joined them, he slashed his sword at the fragment of the colossus that had just bit Luke’s shoulder.

Kwaaang!

The guy’s head with his mouth wide open was split in half.

Luke said as he stabbed the other guy in the stomach with a spear and pushed him down.

-thanks… … .

Although he clicked his tongue after confirming that it was Abel who had saved him.

Abel didn’t care.

Because now was not the time to be swayed by personal feelings.

Abel split the heads of several more enemies and returned to his original position.

By that time, the defense line had also found some stability.

-Kwoaaa!

Taking advantage of the free time, I looked further ahead and saw that the battle between Kaul and Requilas was almost over.

I knew Kaul’s skills from a while ago, but Requilas’ skills were also quite impressive.

There were thick arrows stuck all over the giant’s body, and each one was a place that could be called a vital point.

It was never easy to handle such a huge bow with such precision.

‘Well, that’s why he must have been the captain.’

Abel came to his senses and concentrated on his original mission again.

So the battle was slowly ending.

At least in terms of where they are.

* * *

The battle ended after more than half a day.

The fragments of the giants, which seemed endless no matter how many times they were killed, were no longer visible, and the last giants were defeated by Kaul and Requilas.

The cadets all looked tired, but on the other hand, they also looked happy.

It was only natural that the first practice was successfully completed.

However, the strangely excited atmosphere did not last long.

It was because of the news that the ranger from the other side had delivered.

-Two defense lines have been breached.

-what? which one!

-The center where the elite of the 1st corps gathered… … It’s the right end.

Kaul, who was listening to the news with Requilas, hurriedly asked back when he heard that.

-If it’s on the far right, are you referring to where the academy’s forces are deployed?

-Yes that’s right.

-After breaking through? No, what about the damage?

– Current damage is being counted.

A heavy silence lingered at those words.

Kaul seemed to be in a complicated state of mind before opening his mouth after a while.

-First of all, let’s clean up this place and then return.

-You can go back first, but… … .

At Requilas’ words, Kaul shook his head and said.

-no. It is only natural to complete the assigned task properly.

Even if it was to be organized anyway, the cadets immediately stepped forward and there was nothing big to do.

The full-fledged battlefield organization was scheduled to come from the troops waiting in the rear.

Cowl finished his task quickly, giving instructions to his cadets.

The academy collected the remnants of the weapons and ordered the exhausted cadets to rest.

About an hour passed like that.

– Now come back!

Finally, it was time to get back to work.

Under Kaul’s direction, everyone stood in a moving formation and slowly began to descend while keeping an eye on their surroundings.

Fortunately, nothing happened on the way to the Ranger’s building, where we first got off the vehicle.

Kaul spoke quickly after confirming that the last cadet had entered the building site.

-Everyone shut down Gigant and take a break.

After giving such instructions, Kaul hurriedly headed somewhere without getting off the Gigant.

He was probably going to check the situation of the white eagle cadets deployed in other directions.

Abel looked at the back of it, then slowly finished the Gigant operation and got down from the cockpit.

wheee-.

When I came out, the wind blew just in time, blowing my bangs.

The cool breeze was only pleasant now.

It was because I was running the Gigant while staying up all night, and my body was hot.

‘I’ll have to suffer from muscle pain when I go back.’

It seemed that Abel wasn’t the only one who felt that way.

Seeing the cadets getting out of the cockpit all screaming in pain.

“Yeah. The wind is refreshing.”

There is only one person who looks fine. It was only Daniel.

Daniel came down from Gigant looking so fine that he wondered if that was a person.

Abel asked, leaning on the Gigant that had been laid down.

“Aren’t you tired?”

“huh? It’s not hard.”

“no… … . okay.”

Abel, who was about to say something, shut his mouth.

I was too tired to haggle with Daniel now.

Abel looked away from Daniel and looked at the others. Even at a glance, the atmosphere was subdued.

Of course, it was not because of simple fatigue, but because the other cadets were bothered.

‘Break through… … .’

If only the academy side had been broken through, I would have thought that it would have simply been a mistake on that side.

However, the fact that the center, where the main force of the 1st Corps was supposed to be, was broken through, suggested a different possibility.

‘It was definitely not an ordinary power.’

Come to think of it, Abel also had dangerous moments.

It was the existence of a digger that suddenly appeared from the rear.

If that happened on Abel’s side, it was quite possible that something similar would happen on the other side as well.

‘If there really was a command variant… … .’

Perhaps there was a greater danger than where Abel had been.

‘I hope no one gets hurt at all.’

Abel let out a short sigh.

It was bad in many ways for the cadets to get hurt.

Especially from the point of view of Abel, who knows the future.

Aside from that, one side of my heart was heavy when I thought of the cadets I was close with.

Abel was there for a long time, half neglected with the other cadets.

“Guys!”

By the time I felt the cold wind blowing slowly, an instructor appeared.

He was one of the instructors who came along as an assistant for this practice.

The instructor caught the attention of the cadets and delivered important news.

“Fortunately, there are no fatalities in the other half. Two of them suffered minor injuries, but not enough to leave aftereffects.”

For some reason, there was a bit of a bloody side to what he said to the cadets, but the cadets’ expressions suddenly brightened.

They didn’t say anything out loud, but they were quite worried.

“Who was injured?”

As soon as the instructor finished speaking, Luke asked a question.

The instructor said with a puzzled expression.

“Um, like I said before, it’s not a big injury, so you don’t have to worry about it. More than that, everyone had a hard time waiting outside for a long time. Follow me. There is a place to rest inside.”

He seemed to think that mentioning his name would only increase his anxiety.

Luke tried to say something more, but the instructor turned and walked before he could answer.

In the end, everyone had to follow suit.

A rest area was provided inside the rangers’ building.

Originally, the bunk was arranged in a place that was used as an auditorium.

“Now, everyone lie down and rest. Oh, the other classmates will take a break and return to the academy.”

After saying that, the instructor hurriedly walked somewhere.

Abel sat down on the couch on one side.

At that time, Henna sat down on the bed across from her and spoke to Abel.

“Could something similar have happened elsewhere?”

“Digger?”

“huh.”

Abel pondered for a moment before opening his mouth.

“There is a high probability of that. If the battle went smoothly, there would be no way to break through.”

“I guess… … .”

After that, Henna talked a few more words and then lay down on the bed.

It must be a lot of fatigue. Because I used the Magic Cannon almost non-stop.

Abel also lay down and tried to get some sleep.

But the moment I thought about it.

[The quest ‘Nangjungjichu’ is in progress.]

[Prove your talent with overwhelming skills.]

[Gigant-exclusive weapons will be given as compensation.]

Suddenly, a message floated before Abel’s eyes.

Abel opened his eyes wide when he saw it.

That would be the case, because it had been a while since the quest was given.

However, the problem was that the contents of the quest were too ambiguous.

I’m already in a position where I’m waiting for my practice to go back, but suddenly show off your overwhelming skills?

‘Is this the story after returning?’

I thought so, but the timing was too precise.

Abel thought for a moment, then jumped to his feet.

“Abel? Where?”

Then Daniel, who was lying on a nearby seat, started talking to him.

Abel gave an appropriate answer.

“restroom.”

“Oh yeah.”

Leaving Daniel behind, Abel left the auditorium.

‘Where are we going now?’

A wide hallway stretched out in front of him.
