STRIKER: Independent Beast Tamer

Dean's Office:

Jeremy was unwilling in his heart, especially after hearing that his talent is average compared to the top 10 zones' talents. Right now, he wanted to enter the place more, but he didn't want to offend these people. Discover hidden content at My Virtual Library Empire

Old man Derek frowned. He thought that kid was too ambitious. But once he came across the top 10 zones' talents, then the kid would know the horror of the top 10 zones.

Instructor Jacob wanted to take away Jeremy Night. He had a feeling that the kid would say more to offend Dean Carolyn.

Carolyn sighed in her heart. She had made a huge bet on that kid. She had re-established the STRIKER Department. If the kid wanted to escape midway, it would be disastrous.

She had already planned to invest resources in this STRIKER Department so that from next year onwards, they could start recruiting new beast tamers, like the other departments.

A good idea came to her mind.

"Jeremy Night, I have a way for you to see the wider world," Carolyn said all of a sudden.

Old man Derek and Jacob's expressions turned serious. They were expecting an outburst, but nothing like that happened.

Even Jeremy was taken aback a little. He then looked at her.

"The Beast Taming Association conducts junior level competitions zone-wise each year. Beast Tamers up to Tier-3 Power can participate in that competition."

"From each zone, the zone winner will be selected. Then the next stage of the competition involves the zone winners."

"The final winner among the zone winners' competition will be rewarded. Then various organizations would try to recruit the final winner, including the Central Universities."

"Your best chance is to get the final winner position. Maybe you can fulfill the wish of leaving our zones to enter the top 10 zones," Carolyn finished saying everything.

But the faces of old man Derek and Jacob changed. They were totally dumbfounded.

"Dean, he is just a Tier-1 Beast Tamer. Maybe he can try in his 2nd or 3rd year. But if he enters the competition now, it would be impossible for him to win," Jacob said with concern.

"Moreover, we don't know whether Jeremy can use his lifeline beast to fight or not," he added.

Hearing that, Jeremy's eyes flickered. He was not naive. He was happy to at least get the information. Whether he was going to participate this year or next year was not something he had decided yet.

"Kid, listen to me. You have seen it yourself. The new STRIKER Department's reputation has caused a rise in competitive spirit among the other departments as well."

"You should use your time to gain knowledge and improve your skills. When you become a Tier-2 or Tier-3 Beast Tamer, it's not too late to participate in the competition," Old man Derek said.

This time his facial expression and voice sounded extremely serious. Even Jacob's face changed again. He thought that the old man wasn't bluffing this time.

"Alright, I'll make a decision in the future," Jeremy said.

Though he could fight across power tiers, he thought there must be others with similar combat prowess since he learned about the competition.

He could start preparing for that.

"Good, you have made the correct decision. Also, you don't need to worry about the Forbidden Mission. Both of our elders found out that the threat level was high."

"If it was unsolved, it could pose a threat to us in the future. So the Heath Family doesn't blame you. Our Elders said that you had tried your best to warn others."

"But your current rank made them look down upon you. So they made the wrong decision," Carolyn said in a calm tone.

Hearing that, Jeremy felt relaxed. The two things that had bothered him lately were the dangerous mission investigation's outcome and the illegal activities of the Mighty Order.

Now that he got the answers for the two things, Jeremy thanked her.

"Good, now you can go back to your department," Carolyn said in neither an angry nor a humble tone.

Hearing that, Jeremy stood up and nodded to others one by one before leaving. When he walked out of the office, he felt a huge weight being lifted off his shoulders.

He looked at the sky before sighing to himself. He had faced the harsh reality today. The entire Zone 14, let alone the Central University 14 and other organizations here, were weak in front of the Mighty Order.

"There are still 4 years before graduation. I can't wait that long. Maybe 2 years at most. Then I'll join the competition," Jeremy thought.

Then he left the place.

Inside the office, Instructor Jacob couldn't help but look at her.

"Dean, you told me that you would submit the report to the Human Alliance. What happened now?" Jacob asked.

Old man Derek raised his eyebrows. As far as he knew, Dean Carolyn was not a heartless woman. The City C was as important to her as City A.

Dean Carolyn looked at both of them before saying, "I know what you wanted to ask. But I think that kid is being too reckless."

"If the Mighty Order came to know about it, they could vent their anger on city C. All they have to do is create a man-made beast invasion," she added.

"There is a possibility for that. It's not like we don't have a similar history before," Derek added.

Instructor Jacob understood as well.

"Keep an eye on that kid. I don't think something will happen to City C soon. I asked a few of my connections. They told me that no one died outside the City C."

"Especially the mercenaries and the beast tamers from other families. It shows that the Mighty Order's people are carrying out their activities without alerting anyone."

"If they were exposed, then the Human Alliance will know it soon. So I don't think there is an immediate danger," Carolyn explained.

"What to do about the challenges?"

"That kid didn't even bother about it," old man Derek said with a smile. He was satisfied with the kid's attitude.

Though he found it to be a little rebellious, they needed such strong-minded beast tamers in the face of threats.
