Chapter 85: Chapter 85: First-class Honor Medal? That’s Too Stingy!
When Aster Grant snapped back to his senses, he realized...
At some point, a tall military figure stood at the edge of the battlefield.
Just as he was about to speak, his vision blurred!
"Tap."
The light sound of military boots landing was close at hand.
Aster watched the woman who appeared in front of him in an instant, his eyes involuntarily fixed on the shining general star on her shoulder.
What shocked him even more was her movement in that instant...
She was definitely Monarch Level!
"Senior! You..."
"Noelle Quinn, just call me Senior Sister!"
Noelle Quinn replied casually, her gaze fixed on the two contracted beasts.
Her bonded Clarice was of Demigod Level, but...
Even at Extraordinary Level, Clarice’s displayed strength completely paled compared to the two contracted beasts beside her junior.
This meant...
These two beasts’ levels must exceed Demigod Level!
And beyond Demigod Level...
Myth Level!
A junior with two Myth Level beasts...
Noelle Quinn couldn’t help but twitch the corners of her mouth.
And when Aster heard the name Noelle Quinn, he was also taken aback.
He had just left Aegis Academy a month ago.
He hadn’t forgotten the stories of this Senior Sister that were everywhere in the academy.
He was even able to obtain two types of Myth Level materials from the Guardian Treasury...
All because he broke this Senior Sister’s record!
"Hello, Senior Sister!"
Aster immediately followed up the ladder.
Being well-behaved never hurts.
Upon hearing Aster’s voice, Noelle Quinn withdrew her gaze from the two contracted beasts and turned to Aster.
There were many things she wanted to ask, but seeing the demonic aura surrounding them...
This was not the place for conversation!
She parted her red lips slightly:
"Let’s return to Baelgard first, this place is too close to the Commander Level Demon Domain."
Upon hearing this, Aster nodded.
Both of his contracted beasts had advanced to Extraordinary Tier Nine.
Continuing to stay here hunting demons served only one purpose...
To earn points to exchange for Star Stones!
But he had defeated a Commander Level demon...
The exchange hall didn’t list the value of Commander Level demons.
However, he thought the points earned should be considerable!
"No problem, Senior Sister!"
In the sky.
Stryker watched the direction in which Aster and Noelle Quinn were leaving.
After contemplating for a while, he still chose not to show up.
Given Aster’s talent, it probably wouldn’t be long before he advanced to Commander Level.
By then, there would naturally be an opportunity to meet.
Only...
He rubbed his chin and suddenly sneered:
"Abel Vance, oh Abel Vance, I wondered why you insisted on helping this kid apply for a First-class Honor Medal earlier! Turns out you wanted to trick him into joining the Southern Military Region!"
What an old fox!
"However..."
"If you can give it, why can’t the Northern Command?"
Stryker turned, transformed into a bolt of lightning, and headed straight for Baelgard.
Aster had killed a Commander Level demon at Extraordinary Level; he could use this reason to strengthen his connection with Aster.
First-class Honor Medal?
That’s too meager!
...
Baelgard.
In a courtyard in the City of Chaos.
Scarlett sat on the windowsill, her small white feet dangling, lightly biting into a candied fruit skewer with her red lips.
"Sister, I saw that human come to Baelgard earlier!"
"Aren’t you already well-known? Why hasn’t he come to find us yet?"
Usually, an Extraordinary Level Beast Tamer would select their beast in advance at this stage.
After all, waiting until they truly break through to Commander Level to find their bonded beast...
It’s a bit too late!
Upon hearing her sister’s words, Veridia didn’t look up.
Veridia’s fingers gently trembled on the zither strings, but her tone remained steady:
"Luna, he hasn’t broken through to Commander Level; it’s normal for him not to seek a third contracted beast yet!"
"However, if he wants to find his beast in the City of Chaos, he’ll definitely come to us!"
Scarlett pouted, forgetting to bite her candied fruit skewer.
Her sister made it sound so easy, but who knows if that human has an eye on a suitable beast?
If that human breaks through to Commander Level and bonds with another beast, wouldn’t her sister lose her chance?
With that thought, Scarlett couldn’t sit still!
"No way!"
Scarlett suddenly leaped down from the windowsill, landing barefoot.
She had to prevent this from happening.
At the very least, she should make an impression on that human!
However, just as Scarlett took half a step, there was a soft knock at the courtyard gate.
"Is Miss Veridia here? A Monarch Level Beast Tamer wishes to visit you!"
The zither music abruptly stopped.
Many beast tamers had come to visit her in the past few days.
Not only Extraordinary Level, but there were quite a few Commander Level beast tamers as well.
But their purpose was singular...
To contract her as a bonded beast!
However, she had rejected all those beast tamers.
Not a single meeting!
However...
Now a Monarch Level Beast Tamer had come forward.
She pondered for a moment and decided to have a meeting.
After all, a Monarch Level Beast Tamer was considered the pinnacle of strength in Baelgard.
If she and her sister wanted to continue staying in Baelgard, she had to give this human some respect.
She slowly got up, her gaze turning to her sister.
Scarlett shook her head, "Sister, I’m not going!"
She had no interest in meeting other humans.
Moreover, she still needed to keep an eye on that human to prevent him from bonding with other beasts.
She had no time to run in circles with other humans.
Seeing this, Veridia didn’t insist either.
After all, the human had come to see her.
At this moment.
Inside the living room of the small courtyard.
The Monarch Level Beast Tamer Hugh King sat with a cup of tea, waiting quietly.
Although Hugh wasn’t in a hurry, the Commander Level Beast Tamer beside him was getting restless.
"Hugh, this Ghost Race is just too proud!"
"Making you wait here... Even if this member of the Ghost Race has great talent, they shouldn’t be so arrogant."
Hugh raised his hand to stop him, his tone was calm:
"No problem!"
"As the most powerful recognized bonded beast in the City of Chaos, naturally they have their pride."
Hearing this, the Commander Level Beast Tamer immediately changed his tone:
"Haha, that’s true!"
"Only you, Hugh, are worthy of her... but I still don’t understand why you insist on choosing an Extraordinary Level beast?"
Hearing this, Hugh’s lips curled up slightly as he remembered that day on the arena.
He had been present at the scene.
Witnessing Veridia’s overwhelming performance.
She easily defeated a Dragonkin with top legendary talent, which meant that this member of the Ghost Race’s talent...
Was more likely than not at Demigod Level!
Thinking of this, a trace of fervor flashed in his eyes.
At the time, his level was only at Commander Peak.
He wasn’t sure if he could definitely get that beast to contract with him.
Therefore, after that day ended.
He immediately returned to the King Family, applied for access to the Sanctum Pool, and broke through to Monarch Level.
To ensure nothing could go wrong!
And now, he had reached Monarch Level, the pinnacle of the Human Race’s strength!
Moreover, he still lacked his fourth contracted beast...
What reason would that Ghost Race have to refuse him?!
Beside him, the Commander Level Beast Tamer also began to flatter:
"Hugh is strategic and farsighted!"
"This member of the Ghost Race is surely yours for the taking!"
"Here, I’d like to preemptively congratulate Hugh on acquiring your fourth beast!"
