Novel Full Chapter 228: Reward Ceremony
Frexia Academy.
“Hey. Have you heard about the rumor?”
“What rumor?”
“It’s said that the event on that tropical island was attacked by a terrorist organization.”
“What? A terrorist? Isn’t it Teacher Dikkleus?”
“Teacher Dikkleus seems to be a part of it.”
“How can he be accepted as a teacher?”
“We don’t know, but it seems they are actually controlling the notorious Chaotic Cat. Even the royal court has declared that they are a public enemy.”
“Really? Oh, poor students.”
“But I have heard that a lot of students are standing out during the event, two people in particular. I think they’re holding an award ceremony right now.”
“What? Where are they? Shouldn’t we attend it as well?”
“It should be in that hall!”
As the rumor spread, more and more people were going to watch the ceremony.
The principal stood on the stage while saying, “I’m glad that we’re able to meet again in this hall. Unfortunately, there are a total of four students who are unable to gather on this occasion. Thanks to their sacrifice, all of us can gather in this place. Hence, I’d like for all of us to have one minute of silence to honor their sacrifice.”
As Vivian said, there were four people who had turned into an alien. However, this information had been classified.
Hence, the principal mentioned them falling into their duty.
All students closed their eyes and lowered their heads, honoring the four students.
“Teacher Dikkleus has been found out to be affiliated with a terrorist organization. The Frexia Academy will also take this matter seriously.
“Amidst the attack, the students have fought brilliantly, displaying the quality of the Frexia Academy. They defeated aliens and destroyed the terrorist’s scheme.
“As such, we’ll be handing out rewards for those students.
“For all the students who have fought brilliantly, they will be given ten gold coins, a hundred proto-class cores, and one piece of item.
“Still, among the students, there are a few people whose contribution is standing out compared to the rest.
“Rudeus Viti Liaystian, August Reeves!”
“Yes, sir!” Both of them stood up.
“They have fought against Dikkleus’ ogre. Despite the difference in strength, they persisted, buying the students the time to stop the alien. As an educator, I have nothing but praise for them. They have shown the might of the academy.
“They will be rewarded with 100 gold coins, 500 proto-class cores, and two items. More importantly, their badge privilege will be upgraded by one rank.”
The people couldn’t help but drop their jaws.
“Badge privilege by one rank?”
“Doesn’t that mean they will get a 10% discount to all stores affiliated with the Frexia Academy?”
“Not only that, but if they get another increase, they will be able to access the suite of the inn. When that happens, traveling won’t be a chore anymore.”
The second-year and third-year students were shocked. They felt envious because they only got such a privilege after contributing a lot. However, this also meant the terrorist attack was such a huge incident.
However, the reward didn’t end here. “There is one more person who has contributed to the same level as them. Selena Ashton!”
“Yes, sir!” Selena stood up.
“She is the one finding the alien sneaked in by the organization. This alien is the one controlling thousands of aliens on the island. Thanks to her defeating this alien on the island, the rest of the aliens have become easy to kill, allowing the rest of the students to eliminate all threats.
“Hence, she will also be rewarded with 100 gold coins, 500 proto-class cores, and two items. Her badge privilege will be upgraded by one rank.”
The students clapped their hands. Even though he said the leader, all students knew it would be the highest class alien on that island. There was no way the first-year student was able to kill a mature class alien, at least not yet. Hence, she must have killed a juvenile class mutant, which was no ordinary feat.
“Last but certainly not least, there is one more student whose contribution surpasses all of them combined. It is thanks to him that there is no further bloodshed, which results in Dikkleus’ defeat.”
The principal took a deep breath and shouted his name, “Nathan!”
“Yes, sir!”
The people were taken aback. Unlike the other three, they knew what the lack of family name meant. It turned out the biggest contribution wasn’t the famous heir of the Blacksmith guild, not a noble like Selena, or even a royal family like Rudeus. He was just a commoner. In other words, his achievement came directly from his effort. Of course, the first-year students knew he was Vivian’s student.
However, there were three people actually smiling as though they had expected it. The first was Selena, who was aware of everything. The second was Noelle, who knew Nathan’s brilliance from the battle royale. The last person was Flora, the student council president.
The principal announced, “He was able to take command of the students the moment the terrorist started their plan, controlling the messy situation. He had also helped Selena Ashton in defeating the commanding alien.
“But it wasn’t comparable to his next feat, which was deciphering the barrier made by Dikkleus, a man who was close to a barrier grandmaster, and allowed Vice Principal’s familiar to enter the island and put a stop to not only the aliens but also Dikkleus. As the principal, I’d like to personally thank him for his contribution.
“As for his crowning achievement, he has become the bridge that allows us to cooperate with the Holy Kingdom.
“Hence, he will be rewarded with 200 gold coins, 1,500 proto-class cores, and three items. His badge privilege will be upgraded by two ranks, allowing him to get priority access to the teleportation network.
“And I declare, from this point onward, the Frexia Academy, together with the Holy Kingdom and the Azilia Kingdom, declares war on this organization.” The principal’s expression turned cold as he announced the most important thing. “All their organization’s members are to be killed on sight.”
