Leon and Ira dismounted from the flying beast, landing gracefully on the top stair of the arena directly beside Archon Vyrra's elaborate throne.
THUD! THUD!
Leon approached the Archon without hesitation and asked,
"Should I provide the five percent tax contribution right now, Archon Vyrra?"
His tone was businesslike and respectful.
Archon Vyrra looked at him with her intense crimson eyes and replied calmly:
"You should wait for a while longer. We have an established tradition: we count the total number of monsters killed by each individual warrior. Whichever fighter achieved the highest kill count, their entire unit is completely exempt from paying the five percent tax for that cycle."
Interesting. A meritocracy system.
Leon, hearing her explanation, nodded in understanding and decided to wait patiently for the official counting to conclude.
