I Became a Genius at Gigant Academy

After having a strange experience.

Abel had to sit against the wall for a while.

It was because it was too intense a memory to wake up in a short time.

Abel looked blankly into space and thought.

‘Originally, when a character with an A-level or higher synchronization rate touches the crystal, the passage opens, and that’s it.’

However, it was something he had never even heard of, let alone experienced.

Of course, Abel didn’t know everything about the game.

No matter how addicted you are, you cannot know everything unless you are a producer.

‘Maybe there was a hidden condition.’

If so, what are the conditions?

Abel pondered.

First of all, I thought it might not be a skill or anything like that.

When I was playing the game, I came across a character with a skill set similar to the one I have now.

For the same reason, sympathy is also eliminated as a candidate.

In the first place, synchronization was like a basic condition for passing through the ruins.

Abel removed several things like that, and only one thing remained.

‘The original identity of this body.’

It was a question that had been abandoned because no clear answer could be found, but this body was certainly a mystery itself.

When I first encountered the fragment of the giant, I understood the ‘word’, and then an unknown pattern was engraved.

After that, he battled with the fragments of the giant and absorbed its abilities.

Of course, it was a case that I had never seen before in the game.

‘I thought I was possessed by a body of no importance.’

As time passed, the question came to my mind that it might not be so.

What is the true nature of this body?

Was it a coincidence that I entered this body?

Abel thought about that and wiped his face.

“Whoa.”

My head was pounding.

Again, the problem was the lack of clues.

‘Colossus. fragments of the giant. And ruins.’

One more thing to investigate.

‘If something similar happens in other ruins, it will be more certain.’

Abel came to that conclusion.

“… … are you okay?”

Then, May spoke up.

“Your complexion doesn’t look good.”

It seemed that he was worried when he saw Abel worried.

He frowned, wiped his face down, sighed, and was in a frenzy.

“Ah, yes. No big deal.”

“huh.”

Mei nodded slightly as if she had regained her normal pace.

Abel took a little more rest, and when his mind calmed down a bit, he opened his mouth.

“I saw something earlier.”

“What?”

“For an instant, the inside of the ruins was clearly visible. however… … There were other people besides us in the ruins.”

It wasn’t possible to say everything, so Abel filtered his story.

May, who had heard the story, replied with a serious expression.

“I might bump into you.”

“I guess so. I think you should be prepared.”

Right now, there is some distance, but if they are ‘Pilgrims’, they can’t be careless.

‘In the first place, it seems like I’ve almost passed the first section, which takes the longest time, so after that, I’m sure it’s going to explode.’

Abel chatted with May a little more, then robbed himself and got up.

“Then shall we go soon?”

“huh.”

Right after Abel came to his senses, the wall that originally had marbles similar to the core disappeared.

Instead, the road was straight and straight.

The two moved forward cautiously, as before.

The atmosphere here was different from the previous districts.

The surroundings were bright and strangely, the tension was relieved.

Somehow, I feel like it’s safe here.

‘Actually, there was nothing particularly dangerous about coming here.’

Zone 1 is the most dangerous, and Zone 2 is the most difficult.

On the other hand, there is no such thing as a big danger here in District 3.

In other ruins, a dungeon boss would greet you at the end, but this is because the nature of the other ruins is different.

Even in the game, because of its characteristics and being placed at the very beginning, it was treated as a beginner dungeon.

Of course, it was the standard of a deceased person. Because the conditions to pass were quite difficult.

However, on the other hand, it was also said that there is nothing very difficult as long as the conditions are met.

Didn’t the two young students, who were still naked, come to the end without a single minor injury?

I was walking for a while while thinking about that. May said, pointing forward.

“excuse me.”

“huh?”

“What is in front of me?”

Abel focused on those words and looked ahead.

Then, as he said, the aisle ended and a wide space was seen.

The two met eyes, then nodded, then raised their weapons and walked forward cautiously.

Soon after, the aisle ended and the two stepped into the wide space.

Mei looked around and said a word.

“Something… … It’s unique.”

“Ugh. I know.”

Abel agreed.

Arriving through the passageway, this space reminded me of the inside of the temple.

But if it was completely like that, it wasn’t like that again.

I couldn’t see any symbols or statues that are typical of temples.

Instead, what stood out was the high altar inside.

Abel and May looked through the interior and finally arrived in front of the altar.

“The stairs are very high.”

“I don’t think it was made for normal people. Or does it mean something else?”

Each step of the stairs leading up to the altar came up to Abel’s waist.

‘Ruins made by a colossal giant… … . That’s how it feels.’

Not just this one, but the whole thing.

width of the aisle. ceiling height, etc. It was too much to make all of them based on normal human standards.

It is said that there are examples of building large buildings for the purpose of giving a sense of intimidation, but even the small alleys were large here.

Because of that, the people of this world used to suspect that the people who created the ruins in the past were of a different race.

“I think the only thing left now is that altar?”

I looked inside, but there was nothing special except for the altar.

May agrees with Abel, and the two begin to climb the stairs, helping each other.

Each step was so high that it took some time to climb, but the two managed to get to the top of the altar.

The altar was shaped like a pyramid, with a fairly wide flat area at the end, and a rectangular stone pillar protruding from the middle.

“Hmm.”

Abel pretended to be troubled and moved closer to the stone pillar. Then he said to May.

“I’ll touch you once.”

“… … okay.”

Mei nodded, as she had to do everything she could to find a way out.

“be careful.”

“huh.”

Abel placed his palm on the stone pillar and carefully drew his mana into his palm.

Woong-woong-.

That moment.

As the mana of the palm moved by itself and spread to the surface of the stone pillar, the dark gray stone pillar instantly turned blue.

“Gwa, are you okay?”

May asked, surprised by the unusual phenomenon.

Abel, who was about to answer, realized that his mouth didn’t budge.

It was as if his body had become a stone statue.

But there was no anxiety.

Rather, as time passed, a burning desire boiled from within.

Although he did not know the source of his longing, Abel knew what he had to do.

Woo-woo-!

Instead of recovering his mana, Abel pushed it further.

The stone pillar vibrated loudly, and then a bright light burst out.

Dig-!

He involuntarily closed and opened his eyes, realizing that the paralysis was over.

crisp-.

Then a strange noise suddenly came from the stone pillar, and gray crumbs fell from its surface.

Pasasac!

With that sound, the stone pillar began to shatter as if it had done its job.

Abel was dumbfounded and looked at it.

Then, Mei called Abel.

“Abel.”

“Yes?”

“What is that on your arm?”

Abel lowered his head at those words and noticed a bracelet on his arm.

“This… … what?”

It’s natural if it’s obvious, but Abel didn’t know what this was.

It had no choice but to be, because this was not the artifact Abel originally knew.

Abel and May blinked their eyes.

Ku-gu-gu-gu-!

But that moment didn’t last long.

This is because the walls behind the altar were pushed to both sides with a sudden roar, and a new space appeared.

“… … Shall we go?”

Mei nodded at Abel’s question.

‘I’ll have to check the identity of the bracelet as soon as I get back.’

The two went down the same way they climbed the altar and walked straight into the open space.

And I realized that the space is connected to a small room and another passage.

There wasn’t much furniture in the room, but there were things that stood out.

It was a weapon.

“It is a sword.”

The sword had three guns.

It was a sword that looked like a claymore and two short swords the length of the forearms.

“Let’s take it.”

Abel said without hesitation.

Mei agreed, and the two of them grabbed their weapons and walked straight to the hallway in the room.

‘Passage. Passage. Passage again.’

Maybe because I skipped most of the dangerous sections, I felt like I was walking through the aisle all the time.

The only consolation thing was that there was a high probability that the passage you were going through would lead to the exit.

There were no traps or guardians in the passage. It just stretches forward.

So Abel and May walked down the aisle at high speed.

how long did it take

I saw a bright light pouring in from the front.

Abel and May approached the light with their weapons tightly gripped.

aaah-.

Abel narrowed his eyes.

The light suddenly became so strong that it blinded my eyes.

After a while, as my eyes adjusted to the light, I was able to see properly.

“ah?”

At that moment, Mei made a bewildered noise next to her.

Abel fully understood why.

It was because there was a wide forest in front of me.

The two looked back as if they had squeezed each other. But there was nothing there.

‘Moving space.’

It was finally out of the ruins.

I didn’t know the exact location, but that alone was enough to make me feel happy.

But the joy is short-lived.

“excuse me! A person!”

Before I could properly look around, I heard a human voice from somewhere.

Abel looked where the sound came from and found a man standing there.

Mei put on a bright expression, thinking she was an academy person, but Abel saw something different.

The moon pattern engraved on the chest of the man’s clothes.

As soon as Abel saw it, he realized the situation and raised his weapon.

“may! Enemies!”

The meaning of the moon pattern was simple. It meant being a member of the pilgrims.

Besides, it wasn’t just one or two.

‘I was surrounded.’

Even if you take as few as 20 people.

Too many. To the point where I couldn’t even be sure of running away.

The moment I thought of such a hopeless future.

Dig-!

Light emanated from Abel’s bracelet.
