I Became an Academy Mechanic Genius

Chapter 27

27 – This light… this temperature… this moisture… this atmosphere…

20m in the sky.

If you take an example to gauge its height, it corresponds to the height of about 10 floors of an apartment building.

That is, it is high enough for humans to feel fear.

– Dig!

However, Ed turned off the engine of the propellant in this far-off sky.

The only way to offset the gravitational acceleration was cut off by itself.

Because right now, in his head, only calculations are being made to give maximum damage to the Minotaur King.

– Whoa, whoa!

Then, Ed’s model, which lost its propellant power, began to plummet to the ground.

The tremendous wind pressure hit his body, but it was not enough to stop the acceleration of the fall.

Ed’s model descended at high speed.

‘Enhancement ceremony.’

10m in the sky.

Ed channeled mana all over his body.

In order to prepare for the shock, mana was distributed to 37 mana stones planted throughout the body, and then a ꇔ (strengthening) spell was activated to strengthen the body.

Then, the core mana stone, reminiscent of an arc reactor, began to glow.

The ꇔ (strengthening) spell engraved on one surface of the core mana stone is activated, and commands are given to the 36 mana stones planted throughout the body.

Then, the 36 mana stones that received the command began to perform the spell.

Mana in the form of reinforcement was sprayed all over the body, increasing bone density, strengthening muscle fibers, and making the skin harder.

‘All the remaining mana goes to the sword body.’

5m above

Ed injected the remaining mana into the form-changing plasma gauntlet.

Then, the blue round magic stone embedded in the wrist guard glowed white and began to emit a preheating sound.

It is to further increase the firepower of the plasma lightsaber.

Key – eeeing…

As the preheating sound resounded fiercely, the straight blue sword body began to sway unsteadily like flames from a flamethrower.

It was because he was replacing a large amount of mana with plasma energy at once, so the output energy soared all at once and the magnetic field that confined the plasma energy was strained.

‘I just need to hold out for a bit.’

But Ed kept the output the same.

He descended to the ground, glaring at the Minotaur King, even though he knew that the heat reaching 3500 degrees would melt him in an instant if the magnetic field that confined the plasma energy dissipated.

This is because such high-temperature energy must be maintained in order to pierce the Minotaur King’s skin, which is covered in mana.

‘I can hold on!’

2m above

Now it was a race against time.

Does the magnetic field that controls the high-temperature plasma energy dissipate first?

Or do you pour this enormous high-temperature energy into the Minotaur King before that?

1m above.

The magnetic field began to oscillate.

The superconductor that creates a strong magnetic field started to melt little by little, and the blue sword body went wild.

But at that moment.

Fuhua-aaa

Time was on Ed’s side.

Right before the magnetic field dissipated, Ed’s new model landed on the head of the Minotaur King and pierced the blazing sword.

As a result, the Minotaur King had to die on the spot without knowing why.

This is because the super-high-temperature plasma blade melted the mana-enhanced skin and pierced the skull, then melted all the internal organs and passed through the crotch.

“········.”

Silence fell in the auditorium at this stupendous sight.

The Minotaur King, whose victory could not even be guaranteed by the academy’s official instructor, was melted and split in half by the tremendous heat.

[·····thud!]

Before long, the corpse of the Minotaur King, cut in half, fell to the ground like a domino.

Just that alone made the ground shake, so the cadets in the auditorium who heard the vibration could clearly feel how much of a terrifying thing Ed had killed.

The cadets in the auditorium who witnessed such a shocking scene immediately turned their eyes to Ed.

It’s because I want to check the state of the person who did this crazy thing.

[Heo-eok… Heo-eok…]

The image of Ed filled the screen.

He was on one knee, one hand on the ground, breathing heavily.

However, in the meantime, in order to confirm the complete death of the Minotaur King, he is staring straight ahead with his eyes shining sharply.

It was like a scene from a hero movie.

[Whoa…]

How much did you breathe like that?

Everyone in the auditorium stares blankly at the screen with their mouths open.

Ed slowly began to stand up.

Then, after checking his gauntlet, which made a crackling-crickling-sparking sound, he sighed and grumbled with a troubled expression.

[Mistress, you have to make it again.]

***

I was literally dumbfounded.

The Minotaur King is a monster that even the instructor himself cannot guarantee victory.

Instructor Kaiden looked around at the broken gauntlet and silently stared at the grumbling Ed.

To describe him in one word, this word was just right.

“You are crazy.”

crazy guy

Of course, I didn’t mean to be sarcastic.

Rather, it was a tribute with the meaning of praise.

It is also true that Kaiden was a skilled person who could capture all of Ed’s details.

It may seem easy to look at, but he understood just how much detail went into splitting the Minotaur King in half like that.

‘Strategically precise. There wasn’t even an inch of shaking.’

First of all, the first thing that surprised Kaiden.

It was Ed’s brief, but intuitive strategy that got to the point.

From bringing out the guy in the cave and making him excited, to blocking his movements by targeting only his left ankle.

All were calculated numbers, not coincidences.

‘It’s not even courage from ignorance.’

Also, Ed’s courage was not for nothing.

It came from the faith that came out of self-confidence after a thorough calculation.

Ed was well aware of the strengths of the Minotaur King.

Even with a weapon powerful enough to cut the Minotaur King in half, I was sure he wouldn’t blindly engage in melee.

‘Rather, I chose the best move in the safest way.’

square.

Ed aimed at the guy’s blind spot.

It was not a melee fight, but a one-hit kill in the air.

‘How can you be calm like that?’

What’s even more surprising is his composure.

It’s not that it’s not, the time given to Ed was only about two minutes.

The time it takes for the Minotaur King to fully recover, only 2 minutes.

Ed was in a position where he had to complete countless missions without a single error in that short amount of time.

This is because the minute the Minotaur King moves his body after 2 minutes, an error will occur in the landing point and the chance of a one-hit special miss increases.

The turn then returns to the Minotaur King.

And the one torn in half to death was probably Edgar Fix, not the Minotaur King.

‘You must have known that. But I dared to do it.’

But even though Ed must have known that, he boldly took action.

Thinking of the worst possible future could make his mind stiffen, but Ed shook off his fear and proceeded with his original plan one by one.

Even though I was in a pretty high position for complete success of the mission, I just turned off the propellant.

He overcame the fear of falling and threw himself to shorten the time.

‘There are few injuries. It is proof that mana was perfectly controlled.’

Also, Ed’s body was barely injured.

It means that mana was properly distributed in preparation for the shock.

In many ways, he was a great cadet who had no choice but to acknowledge his ability.

‘Strategy, tactics, action, judgment, response ability. All deserve the highest rating. Scores are meaningless.’

In the first place, this tournament confrontation was conducted to measure the abilities of the cadets.

Although there was no score given to the Minotaur King, its value was higher than all the small monsters here.

“commons.”

At that time, Isabella came down leisurely from the air, calling for Ed.

Landing lightly next to Ed, she glanced at the corpse of the Minotaur King, then turned her gaze to Ed and said,

“Are you hurt anywhere? Dealing with something like that would not be easy.”

“… fortunately. I was lucky.”

“···yes? congratulations anyway I admit this too. Well, I can kill whenever I want, but I have a lot to lose.”

Ed nodded obediently at Isabella’s words.

In fact, with Isabella’s level of mental control, she could kill the Minotaur King.

However, as she said at the end, it was rather a loss to Isabella if she caught the Minotaur King.

Because of her combat mechanism, she has no choice but to consume the ‘negatives’ she has accumulated.

“Instructor.”

So, Isabella neatly accepted her defeat.

After calling the instructor, he declared an abstention, something no cadet had ever done before.

“Instructor, you’re roughly the same size, right? just pick him up There is no rule, but instructors can make their own decisions.”

Isabella asks Instructor Kaiden to upload Ed.

But Kaiden didn’t like her attitude.

Even if she is the Grand Duchess of the Graham family, as long as she entered the academy, she is a student, and she is the instructor in charge of her.

“····yes. I am in charge of this match. So don’t step out. All judgments and decisions are made by me. I am solely responsible for the judgment.”

“…”

“Well, I agree with you. Edgar Fix, your victory.”

The instructor shrugs and announces victory to Ed.

Isabella clapped- clapped- clapped her hands in a soulless reaction.

However, the instructor added a word to Ed.

“And, I will award 3 penalty points. It is true that you have taken your own risk by violating the rules. Honestly, I’m glad the results were good, I almost died.”

“···sorry. There is only one way to win.”

“Hmm. I just need to know. I also want you to know that I am writing an excuse letter thanks to you. hahahaha, that’s my seller I applied here to suck honey…”

Instructor Kaiden grumbled and motioned for Ed to go.

It means that the match is over, so go back to the auditorium.

Eventually, Ed and Isabella stood in front of the teleport magic ball.

And just before going to the auditorium, Isabella smiled and talked to Ed.

“Today was fun. you keep intriguing me Will you have fun next time?”

“I see. As long as Isabella-sama doesn’t get too naughty.”

“Keuk. I don’t think you’ll suffer.”

Ed shrugs at Isabella’s words.

It was a bold provocation from Isabella’s point of view, but that’s why I liked it even more.

I thought I could play well with this commoner for a long time.

“then.”

Isabella placed her hand on the magic ball first.
