Chapter 249 – Honorary Champions (2/2)

“Fuck, I don’t accept it! What the hell are they? If it wasn’t for the Lesser Devils, would they be able to take our points? What a joke! Could those monsters be their allies?”

Momm spoke what he thought, and cursed under the stage. If it wasn’t for Woos, he would have ran up and teared that wheelchair brat to pieces.

During the battle, the Lesser Devils broke all the bones in his body, so it would be a while before he regained normal movement. So he could only sit in a wheelchair wrapped in bandages and get pushed by his sister to receive the awards.

Even if his body was in pain, Lin Tian was overjoyed.

Even if those rowdy people beneath the stage made Yao Zi feel uncomfortable, he was so happy.

The award was very generous, other than the trophy and prize money, there was one other crucial thing, the alliance investigator’s medal.

With the medal, they were dedicated investigators for the Four Kingdom Alliance, and he would obtain status and power like never before.

No one would look down on him, even if he was bound in bandages, when he went back, those people who bullied them wouldn’t dare anymore!

Yes, he did it!

Even if it was just luck, he used his body in exchange for a medal that would change his life!

And this was just the beginning, with this medal, he could participate in missions issued by the Four Kingdom alliance, so there were even more opportunities in the future.

He just didn’t know whether he’ll be this lucky the next time…

“Old man Woos, look at how stupid he looks! Don’t stop me, I’m going to find a chance to snap his neck!” Momm rubbed his fists and wanted to take out his anger.

“Momm, calm down! They did get a championship for free, but we were also compensated, so we didn’t have any actual losses… honorary champions, this time they especially gave us honorary champions. The only thing that changed was the name, the awards are still the same, so just be content with that.”

“Honorary Champions? Hmph, that sounds like a handout… no, I won’t accept it!”

Actually, Woos wasn’t wrong.

In order to compensate Loran Academy, they agreed to give them the Honorary Champion. Even if the name was slightly different and there was no champion cup and it wouldn’t be publicized, they still got the most crucial Alliance Investigator medal and the other awards.

Even if they didn’t get the fame, they got the rewards. Objectively speaking, it wasn’t a bad outcome.

“Hmph, I don’t know what that brat is acting so high and might for? He wasn’t even the one to finish off the Lesser Devils, it was his sister… the funny thing is that he’s still kept in the dark about it.” Momm was still complaining as he watched him receive his rewards on stage.

Lin Tian was just a normal fifth-level magician, and his sister Yao Zi was someone amazing, someone who possessed the Wizard’s bloodline.

Although they were still siblings on good terms, one day, Yao Zi would become a powerful existence that Lin Tian wouldn’t be able to look at. Who knows whether he’ll be able to accept the shocking truth when the time comes.

The people who know about Yao Zi right now still number very few, Woos didn’t say much about it, so everyone only had half-baked knowledge of what had transpired. So the siblings could still enjoy the current happiness, but when the information spreads, then they might not be able to return to their normal lives.

“Ah ya, old man Woos, I’m still angry… I’m uncomfortable at the thought of Greenton personally awarding him the investigator medal! I’d rather he give it to our brat! They’re both Eastern tribe, and they’re both called Lin, but our Lin Xiao is so much better!”

“Certainly… wait Momm! Did you just say the hero, Greenton?”

Woos stopped and remembered that the champion would be personally awarded by the current hero. But the award ceremony was almost over, but there was still no sign of Greenton.

Momm was happy when he noticed the hero didn’t come, but Woos furrowed his brows.

Greenton was once his student. so he knew him well.

Although he looked uninhibited, he was a man that kept his word. Even if it was a trivial matter, since he agreed, he would definitely come.

After waiting for a while, until the ceremony was over, Greenton never showed up. So everyone acknowledged that the hero was absent, and the entire ceremony ended in orderly fashion with Lin Tian holding his medal and being pushed away by his sister.

The ceremony ended and the crowd gradually dispersed, Momm was still angry and left first, leaving only Woos behind.

He held his waist and falteringly turned around, planning to meet up with the rest and return. But he noticed someone tall and strong standing in front of him, blocking his way.

“Old man, you’re too old to be fooling around with young people, have you already lived long enough?”
