I Became a Genius at Gigant Academy

It took quite a while for the wagon to get out of the island.

It was because the door to go out was almost the opposite of where the academy was located.

Still, once they got out of the system, the wagon, which had nothing to do with it, accelerated in earnest.

“It’s been a while since I was out of the system.”

Daniel muttered as he looked out the window.

Abel also said a word to him.

“me too. Except for the last training session, it seems like it’s been almost a year.”

“Oh, there was practice. I was thinking of forgetting that.”

“Don’t even do that. Because I was out of my mind at the time.”

Daniel looked out the window and said.

“But since I’m talking like this, it seems like practice was a long time ago. In fact, not too long ago.”

“so do i. Is it because I have a lot of work?”

After entering the academy, there was a series of incidents without a break.

It felt like almost a year had passed.

“Is the second semester going to be as hectic as this?”

“Wouldn’t it be more if I added it, not less? The seniors also said that the second semester is the right time.”

“It was.”

Daniel shook his head.

When I was at the academy, there were times when I met seniors very occasionally, and there were things I heard every time.

Starting from the second semester, the first semester will be difficult enough to feel like a joke.

In fact, Abel knew that better than anyone else.

It’s just that I haven’t experienced it myself, because I’ve repeated it hundreds of times in the game.

“Ugh. It is said that it will be difficult, but I am also secretly looking forward to it.”

“Are you looking forward to it?”

“huh. In the first semester, there wasn’t much training on Gigant.”

“ah. That’s right.”

As Daniel said, Gigant did not play a large role in the first semester class.

In fact, it was all lectures given by Kaul.

“Instructor Cowl’s classes only did this and that in the beginning, but in the second half, it was mostly adaptation training.”

“huh. Ride the gigant and hold out for a long time. Practice basic posture repetitions. What were those things?”

“Because the basics are important.”

“… … Sometimes you sound like an old man?”

Daniel shook his head with a tired expression.

Abel shook his head firmly and said.

“All words become blood and flesh.”

Daniel made a tired expression at Abel’s cunning ability.

Daniel, who would have been second to none in terms of sincerity, was unable to match Abel.

“It’s okay, it’s okay. By the way, have you ever been to a villa or something?”

Abel answered the question simply.

“at all. I’ve never been outside the system just to play.”

“Me too. I couldn’t afford it.”

Daniel leaned back on the backrest and continued talking.

“Honestly, in the old days, I don’t think I would have gone even if they asked me to go out.”

“Then now?”

“My thoughts have changed a bit. It’s important to work hard, but it seemed like it wasn’t everything.”

Abel turned his head and looked at Daniel.

“why?”

“Um… … . To be honest, there were quite a few scary moments during the field practice last time, right?”

Daniel continued with a puzzled expression.

“When a giant suddenly came out. I even thought about dying here like this.”

“what… … That was me too.”

“right? Thanks to you, the crisis was over, but I thought about it later.”

After a moment of hesitation, he spoke slowly.

“If I die like this, what will be left? I lived hard, but when I die, it’s all over, right?”

Abel nodded.

“yes.”

“So, from then on, my thoughts changed a bit. It’s important to live hard, but I won’t give up everything else.”

Daniel said that and continued with a grin.

“Did I say too grandiose that I want to play a little bit now?”

“It’s grand. It’s something anyone would think.”

Abel smiled and said.

In fact, wasn’t it the same reason why he went to play like this this time?

“Everyone does.”

Play, laugh and chat, and make memories.

If you give up all of those things and run, what will be left?

No, can I keep running while giving up all those things in the first place?

“good idea.”

Abel said as he leaned back against the backrest, just like Daniel.

“By the way, after you go back, you’re going to train every day, right?”

“You talk like you wouldn’t.”

The two looked at each other again and smiled.

Regardless, the two had many similarities. At least when it comes to attitude towards training.

“Let’s not think about anything this time and get some rest.”

“okay.”

After that, the two rested quietly for a while.

The wagon went straight along the road.

The road to the villa was well maintained, so there were no fragments of giants or bandits appearing.

Thanks to this, they were able to arrive at the originally scheduled time.

To Henna’s villa.

“Wow, that’s really big.”

“pretty.”

Everyone who got off the carriage burst into admiration.

It was also because Hena’s villa and the scenery around it weren’t usually beautiful.

There was no separate garden, but flowers were in profusion in the surrounding grass.

The villa in the middle blended with the grass and boasted a simple yet elegant charm.

Henna, who got off last, said with blushing cheeks at the compliments of others.

“My, it’s my favorite place. I’m glad everyone seems to like it.”

“Everyone likes it! I already think I did well by coming here to play!”

Daniel said in a cheerful voice.

The others all expressed sympathy, though not so conspicuously.

“Then let’s go first! The butler will be waiting for you.”

Henna hurriedly walked ahead, probably not being weak to this kind of praise.

The carriage stopped not too far from the mansion, so we arrived at the front gate in no time.

“Welcome to Villa Luvière.”

Upon arriving in front of them, the gray-haired butler greeted the group with a polite voice.

Abel looked at him and thought.

‘He’s a butler that looks like something out of a fairy tale book.’

You could tell he was a butler just by looking at his appearance.

“Then, please come in.”

The group entered the mansion with the guidance of the butler.

The inside of the mansion was not splendid, but it inspired admiration just like the outside.

It was so well maintained that there was not a speck of dust to be found.

“Since you must have had a hard time coming, I will guide you to the room you will be staying in first.”

So they were guided and unpacked in the room.

There were a total of three rooms to stay, and those who rode the wagon together decided to use the same room.

“Wow, the room is really spacious.”

“I know. I’d believe it if it was for 8 people instead of 2 people. Look at the size of the bed.”

The academy’s dormitory was by no means inferior, but the aristocrat’s villa was different no matter what.

Abel briefly unpacked his things with Daniel and went out immediately.

Outside, Henna and May were out first.

“Yeah. Is the room really nice?”

“okay? I’m glad.”

Henna replied confidently, as if her embarrassment had subsided.

Soon after, Iolin and Darin came out of the room, and Hena opened her mouth again.

“I will personally guide you around the mansion. I think that would be more comfortable.”

“It doesn’t matter what we do.”

“huh.”

“Then, I’ll guide you from the mansion! Follow me!”

Henna led the way and guided us around the mansion.

restaurant. library. bathroom and so on.

Hena, who went around the mansion like that, said with a grin.

“Now that we’ve seen the mansion, let’s go outside.”

“If you’re outside, are you going to look around the mountain?”

“The details are a secret. Look forward.”

Henna immediately led the party to the back of the mansion.

As if the conversation with the butler had already ended, two hired servants were waiting and followed.

There was a forest behind the mansion, and there was a small trail there.

“There are rough places along the way, so be careful with your feet.”

It was a sudden forest tour, but everyone had no complaints.

It may not have been intensively maintained like a garden, but it was because the scenery was quite beautiful.

“Wow, isn’t that fairy grass?”

“Does it seem right? I only saw it in books.”

The forest was dotted with rare plants and flowers, Darin’s favorite.

‘Come to think of it, I was very interested in plants.’

Abel suddenly remembered Darin’s taste.

These were things I forgot about because they weren’t particularly important.

As Abel listened to the chatter of the other children, he recalled forgotten memories.

‘Daniel likes delicious food. Iolin likes small animals. Mei likes sleeping and soft pillows. and… … .’

Abel, who recalled one by one, turned his gaze to Henna and then spat out a small exclamation.

It was because when I remembered what she liked, I got a sense of where I was going.

Of course, I had no intention of ruining the atmosphere by bringing it out of my mouth.

‘Somehow, there was a reason I was confident.’

Abel smiled and followed Henna, who was walking hard ahead.

Henna’s steps seemed lighter than ever.

By the time I walked for about 30 minutes on the road through the forest.

“Everybody get ready to be amazed!”

Henna shouted in a clear voice and increased her walking speed.

And soon the forest ended and an open space appeared.

Shoot aaa-.

The first signal that came was ‘sound’.

Then, the salty air that had gently lingered around the tip of his nose from earlier became stronger.

“uh!”

Darin, who was walking right behind Henna, screamed in surprise.

The reactions of May and Iolin, who were behind him, were not much different.

Everyone opened their eyes wide in amazement, mesmerized by the scenery unfolding in front of them.

“why? What… … .”

Daniel, who came out of the forest belatedly walking right in front of Abel, froze as he saw the scene unfolding in front of him.

Someone muttered in a low voice.

“ocean… … ?”

“huh! It’s the sea!”

Henna coolly revealed the identity of the surprise gift.

As she said, the cool sea spread out in front of me.

From nob le mt l dot com

Just looking at it was a scene that seemed to open my heart.

“It is the sea.”

Abel walked forward and muttered as his eyes filled with the sea.

It was a place I had visited many times during my time on Earth, but that did not diminish my impression.

‘How many years has it been since I’ve seen the sea?’

At least I haven’t seen it since I woke up here.

“and… … . It’s my first time seeing the sea.”

“me too.”

Iolin expressed sympathy with Darin’s muttering in a small voice.

As can be seen from the conversation between the two, there are many people in this world who have never seen the sea in their lives.

It was because transportation was not very convenient, and few people were leisurely enough to travel to see the sea.

So, the impression of those who saw the sea was so intense that it cannot be expressed in words.

“Henry! Lay out what you prepared!”

“All right.”

Henna said to the employee who came with her while the others admired.

As soon as the servant heard her words, he opened the basket he was holding in his arms and began to spread the food along with the cloth on the floor.

Daniel’s eyes twinkled when he saw it.

“It’s just us here, so you can be comfortable!”

After Hannah said that, she smiled brighter than ever before and continued.

“So let’s play!”
