Chapter 46 Victor Scott's performance

May Lindsey is feeling happiness and pride. She then returns to her position, confident that Victor Scott won't have this much of a kill count. Right after that, her department members started submitting the decapitated heads. Time passed. When it was Petra Ross's turn, she stepped forward. May Lindsey and the others looked at her. Even though she had her own confidence, she took out the decapitated heads one by one to submit. She had killed both Tier-1 and Tier-2 Corrupted Beasts. At the same time, Levy Glass was watching her with bated breath. He wanted to surpass both Petra Ross and Jeremy Night. When she submitted her collection, the middle-aged Captain announced the result. "25 Tier-1 and 20 Tier-2 Corrupted Beasts' heads!" Hearing that, her friends cheered. Most of them in the Elemental Department were surprised as well. Even May Lindsey glanced at her. Everyone was aware that Petra Ross's talent is B-Grade, but she had bonded with a suitable fire elemental lifeline beast. The combination of both of them could achieve good results. The Department Instructors had seen her performance as well. They noticed her and the lifeline beast, the red flamingo. They teamed up to kill most of the beasts. Even the Elemental Department Instructor, the middle-aged woman, showed approval by nodding her head. Petra Ross was thrilled by the response. She then returned to her previous spot with happiness. Her new friends congratulated her. After receiving everyone's praise, she turned to look at Levy Glass, who happened to be observing her as well. When their gazes met, Petra Ross smiled, which immediately irked Levy. "Damn it," Levy cursed in his heart. He had a higher number of kills than her, but the problem was the Tier-2 Corrupted Beast count. He had killed more Tier-1 Corrupted Beasts than she had, but the count of Tier-2 Corrupted Beasts was low. Then the other beast tamers from the Control Department started stepping forward. Time passed. When it was Levy Glass's turn, he started putting his collection on the desk. The number of Tier-1 decapitated heads crossed 36 a few minutes later. Then he began taking out the Tier-2 Corrupted Beasts' decapitated heads. A few minutes later, the count of Tier-2 Corrupted Beasts' decapitated heads reached 16. It was still 4 lower than Petra Ross, but the total kill count was high at 52. Whereas Petra Ross's was 45. He had seven more kills than her. The middle-aged Captain nodded his head in appreciation before announcing the result, because the kill count was high in the B-Grade Talent category. Levy Glass returned to his position with a gloomy face. He didn't want to see the smiling face of Petra. On normal days, they would meet and talk to each other. But this time it was a competition. At the same time, Jeremy was smiling inwardly. His two old rivals had shown their performance, but he was way ahead of them. So he wasn't considering them as opponents. For him, the two S-Graders were his goal. His kill count was less than theirs, but if he had actively hunted and killed the Tier-2 Corrupted Beasts, he could have gotten close to their kill count. But he chose to stay low key. Once he got a chance, he would try to increase that number in the wilderness. Meanwhile, inside the dean's office, the old woman Carolyn was pleased with the performance of the two S-Graders. "So pouring all that wealth was worth it," she muttered. Before the event, she had ordered people to catch and drive the Corrupted Beasts toward the Abandoned Ruins. Most of them had been living there from the beginning. While others were specifically captured and released in the Abandoned Ruins, all that for increasing the kill count of the two S-Graders. May Lindsey and Victor Scott didn't disappoint her. Both of their kill counts had crossed 250. It was a far better performance than the previous year's S-Graders. Now that she had witnessed the performance of the two, she wanted to see the kill count of Jeremy Night next. Based on that, she would decide whether to increase the funding of the Striker Department. She looked at Jeremy Night's image among the crowd on the screen.
