Chapter 747: You Think Too Highly Of Yourself (2)
"You displayed that talent clearly during your time in Nalim," Regulus said. "Your feats were incredible. You achieved the highest number of Horror-class demon kills among the second years. You also achieved the second-highest number of Advanced Horror kills, and your Feral-class kill count was impressive as well. In direct combat, few students in your year can match your efficiency once you commit to destroying the enemy."
Chris’s shoulders eased only slightly, but the anger in his eyes did not fade.
Then Regulus paused.
"Even so," he continued, and the hall seemed to brace itself, "feats alone were not the only thing evaluated during this assessment."
The magical screen shifted again.
This time, the images shown were less flattering.
Chris could be seen unleashing a large burst of lightning against a group of Feral-class demons when a smaller, controlled strike would have been enough. Another clip showed him pursuing a fleeing Horror-class demon far beyond his previous shelter, abandoning a stable position for a kill that offered little survival value.
Then came a scene where he discovered a water source, but instead of securing the area properly first, he moved too quickly and triggered an ambush that forced him to burn through far more Myst than necessary.
Regulus’s eyes remained on him. "For all your power, you were either too arrogant or too foolish to respect the main purpose of this assessment. Survival."
Chris’s jaw tightened further.
