I Became a Genius at Gigant Academy

“Huh.”

Hot breath escaped from his mouth.

At the same time as her heart was beating like it was about to explode, unprecedented power spread throughout her body.

The sense of restraint that subtly squeezed the body disappeared and Tito felt like one body.

The synchronization rate soared like a runaway.

cooong!

It was only one step, but Abel felt a thrill of dizziness.

It was like riding a wild horse running wild.

thud!

However, when he took the next step, he had already grasped the rough energy and put it under his control.

The tuning rate that surpassed the limit for an instant showed him a new world.

Woo-woo-!

In his field of vision, he saw Tito’s fist flying with Luke riding on it.

Normally, I would have turned away and avoided it, but there was no need to do that now.

Abel just lowered himself slightly, straightened up, and put his shoulder on his fist.

Kagak!

The hard fist deflected along the curve of the shoulder.

Due to the unexpected shedding, Luke’s aircraft lost its balance and staggered greatly.

Abel could clearly read Luke’s bewildered expression. And realized at the same time.

That what lay ahead was no longer a dangerous enemy, but a defenseless prey.

The moment he realized that, Abel raised his fist upwards as if it were bouncing off.

Quaang!

The fist hit the chin as it was.

Gigant is not a creature made of flesh and blood, but the head is the same weakness.

Abel saw Luke who couldn’t come to his senses and pushed harder.

bang! Quaang! bang!

Every time he swung his fist, Tito’s hard body twisted terribly.

The fist of the machine Abel was riding was also damaged, but it was not particularly important.

At this moment, it was more important for him to show clearly to those present here.

that there is a monster here

Wow!

Abel approached an opponent who now seemed to have difficulty controlling himself properly.

Then, with one hand, he grabbed his neck and squeezed it between his legs with the other.

Before Luke could do anything, he was lifted straight into the sky.

In an instant, all eyes were focused on Abel.

It was only natural that he lifted Tito like a weight.

As if responding to the attention of the people around him, Abel stuck the aircraft he had lifted to the floor.

aaang-!

The military press slam exploded.

The roar of Tito, who was heavier than the Midget, mercilessly slammed into the ground was very heavy.

Of course, that wasn’t the end.

Wow!

Abel did not stop there and jumped high.

The massive giant soared unbelievably high.

Abel felt a thrill of release and bent Gigant on one knee. I saw Tito, who had fallen to the floor, struggling to get up.

His aircraft fell straight towards Tito’s head.

Kwajijik!

Properly exploded knee drop!

Tito’s hard head was shattered with that single blow.

Abel’s machine also suffered considerable damage, but he stood up on his feet again without incident.

“crazy… … .”

The words someone muttered involuntarily represented the feelings of those who watched what Abel did.

An untimely silence fell in the hall.

After calming his rough breath, Abel spoke in a calm voice through Gigant.

-next.

At first glance, Abel’s aircraft looked severely damaged.

After a fierce battle there, his stamina must have been considerably reduced.

-no one is here?

however.

No one rushed towards Abel.

– Then there’s nothing you can do about it.

Abel finished his words with a regretful voice and resumed his movement.

If no one comes, I’ll just go.

Those near him hesitated and backed away, but Abel ran and threw his fist at the nearest Tito.

Quaang-!

In the midst of an intense roar, not only the test takers but also the professors looked at it and giggled among themselves.

“Is that him? Count Klein.”

“I guess so… … . Where did the Count get a monster just like himself? The opponent wasn’t a complete idiot either.”

“I think I won a victory in the fight rather than simply handling Gigant well. is not it?”

Seeing that short battle, he showed quite a sharp insight.

“Aren’t the rumors going around these days related to that kid?”

“That statue? It must be just nonsense.”

“It is not a rumor. Professor Zeppel was there at that time, and the light flashed as the real statue moved.”

Rumors that had stirred up the academy for a long time and then died down came back to the surface.

Also, the giant of the empire standing on the podium was also paying attention to Abel.

“Hmm.”

Magnus stroked his beard.

He was well aware that the legend surrounding the statue was not just a legend. It’s kind of like a ‘test’.

However, he never thought that someone who could pass it would come out in his generation.

Because he couldn’t even cross that condition.

‘He’s a genius outside the standard.’

The present era is different from the past.

Unlike before, one overwhelming genius can replace hundreds or thousands of soldiers.

That was the reason why Gigant Riders were fostered at the academy.

Not only is it active in wars with other countries, but it is the most effective means of dealing with the ‘Colossus’.

Magnus stared at Abel for a while, then shifted his gaze elsewhere.

It was because Abel’s talent shone so splendidly, he wasn’t the only one who could be called a gemstone.

It was visible in his eyes.

In a normal case, even if only one person came out of each jockey, there were several more geniuses who could be said to be great.

“It will be fun.”

“yes?”

Instead of answering the question of the professor standing next to him, Magnus just grinned. And this jockey, who is expected to be active in the future, was put in his eyes.

The second test was slowly coming to an end.

* * *

The wreckage of the smashed Tito was scattered all over the hall.

It was because there were no corpses, but the appearance was comparable to that of most battlefields.

Abel wondered how the hell he was going to clean it up, but once the wizards came forward and used magic, the clean-up was done in an instant.

“Is that him?”

“Does it seem right?”

At that time, the sound of conversations around him pierced Abel’s ears.

It was now a short break after the second exam, but it was difficult for Abel to rest.

‘It’s more burdensome than I thought.’

There were people who paid attention to themselves even before the exam, but now that the second exam was over, attention was pouring out on a different level.

Although, in the first place, it was more conspicuously rampant to attract attention.

In particular, the owners of the aircraft he destroyed were literally burning hot eyes.

The hottest among them would be Luke.

‘That’s great.’

Basically, he was a character who played a villain, so his personality was a bit different and his desire to win was very strong.

However, it wasn’t just a blow, it was broken terribly, so it deserved a lot of goals.

‘I’m sure he’ll do some sh*t later.’

Although defeated by Abel, Luke finally passed the test.

That was possible because of the conditions for passing this test.

‘Whether the aircraft was destroyed or not, as long as I stood at the end, it was a pass.’

Ruku pretended to be incapacitated by lying flat with his machine nearly destroyed, then got up at the last moment.

It was amazing.

The strategy itself was plausible, but it was surprising that a self-respecting Luke would choose it.

‘Is that why his eyes are hotter?’

He was probably thinking something like, ‘You made me suffer this kind of insult’.

Of course, that didn’t mean that Abel was afraid of repercussions.

‘If I get a chance next time, I’ll have to try a different technique.’

It was rather a pleasure to be able to use my hands more comfortably with a bad-tempered guy.

Abel concentrated on resting, ignoring the hot gaze.

“ruler! You must have had enough rest!”

About 15 minutes later, the internal cleanup was completely finished, and Magnus announced the end of the break with a loud voice.

“The fun play just ended with a test. From now on, the full-fledged test will begin, so everyone be alert.”

Those who remained at Magnus’s words trembled.

Abel, who already knew the content of the upcoming test, sighed inwardly.

The next tests were completely different from the previous ones.

The academy’s tests largely evaluate synchronization, mana management ability, and physical strength.

So far, we have evaluated the essential factor, synchrony, and then… … .

“Now, let’s check how strong everyone is!”

It was the turn of fitness.

“ruler! Everyone get out!”

“run! Run!”

The professors who were waiting on the podium came down and shouted.

Abel, who had been warming up beforehand, ran out of the building without hesitation.

The content of the third test was simple.

Run until you fall.

It may be said that the evaluation method is too ignorant, but it was a test with grounds in its own way.

‘It’s important how good your physical strength is, but more important than that is the mental strength you show in the process.’

Mental strength is just as important as coordination in dealing with Gigant.

No matter how high the tune-up rate is, you can’t save it 100% if you have a bad mentality.

It was like giving a famous sword to a child.

The candidates moved to the large training ground right behind the building.

The professors stood on one side and observed those test takers and recorded something.

The third test lasted several hours.

“Heh, heo!”

“Kheuheo Eok.”

Heavy breathing echoed everywhere.

Of course, Abel wasn’t comfortable. Unlike the tuning rate, it wasn’t overwhelming in terms of physical strength.

“Whoa!”

On the other hand, there were also those who stood out in the physical fitness test.

In particular, one brown-haired boy showed a relatively intact figure after running for hours.

It was a look that made you doubt whether it was a human or a monster wearing a human mask.

Seeing this, Abel rallied even more and ran.

I reached my limit several times, but I never collapsed.

“stop!”

So when the test is finally over.

There were less than fifty people, including Abel, standing with their feet on the ground.

Those who had reached out earlier were looking at those people with tired expressions.

On the other hand, the professors were shining their eyes.

As soon as the test was over, Abel regained his strength by catching his breath instead of collapsing on the floor.

“ruler! This is the fourth test! Get on board quickly!”

The break is only 10 minutes.

A fourth test followed immediately. The content of the test was to run while riding Tito.

Everyone hurriedly climbed onto Tito.

It wasn’t easy at all just because I wasn’t running myself.

All of them were as much mentally exhausted as physically exhausted.

This was a more blatant mental test than the third test.

It is to see if it can handle Gigant even under extreme circumstances.

The fourth test lasted over thirty minutes.

This test was just as harsh, but much better for Abel.

Abel controlled the machine perfectly even until the others showed signs of exhaustion, and this time even the supervisors, the professors, showed tired faces.

In the end, only about twenty people were left, including Abel.

The tests continued after that.

Every time they heard Magnus’s cry, “Come on, next!”, dark clouds formed on everyone’s faces, and after more time, everyone put on a look of liberation.

Even in the midst of that, Abel showed an overwhelming figure in most of the tests as if he was not tired.

There are at most three or four people who can be compared to him. And those three or four were talents who might or might not appear in one of the riders Magnus said.

Of course, even he showed himself ahead in some tests.

As the tests continued, it was Abel who consistently received the most attention.

“Hmm.”

In the midst of attracting so many people’s attention, there was someone who was looking at Abel with even more passionate eyes.

It was Magnus.

Magnus muttered in a low voice, his eyes twinkling.

“The chief has already been decided.”
