STRIKER: Independent Beast Tamer

Jeremy Night started practicing the inner healing method. At first, he didn’t get any reaction. He started to think that it might not work because he didn’t have healing talent. As this thought arose, he decided to continue the practice for an hour. If still there was no reaction, then he would give up.

Thirty minutes later,

Finally, there was a reaction. The natural energy from the surroundings started to enter his body. Jeremy’s eyes sparkled. He was sure that he had no healing talent.

Then he suddenly thought of Instructor Jacob’s words. The instructor and the Dean had discussed this already. They were sure of his Supreme Combat Body Talent. It was just their speculation.

But he didn’t expect it to work out, which meant his Supreme Combat Body Talent had healing attributes. But it’s not like other healing talents; this was more like self-healing.

If his body gets injured, it can heal itself. As this idea came to his mind, he decided to check it out. He took out a katana blade from the storage ring.

He made a small cut on his finger using the blade tip. Red blood appeared from the injury. Then he saw the injured area healing itself. But the process was slow.

”Supreme Combat Body,” Jeremy uttered.

He had underestimated his own talent. He had thought his talent was all for fighting and hadn’t paid attention to other aspects.

Now, looking at the injury healing itself, he sighed in relief. At least he could practice the inner healing method. The theory told by Instructor Jacob had turned out to be right.

After pushing down the distracting thoughts, he resumed practicing the inner healing method. The natural energy entering his body had no attribute because of the Supreme Combat Body’s self-healing ability.

The natural energy was quickly consumed to cure the cut injury. The injury was fully healed within a few minutes.

Jeremy then continued to circulate the natural energy in his body according to the route mentioned in the inner healing method.

Wherever the natural energy passed by, he could feel his cells being strengthened. He felt rejuvenated. Jeremy forgot about the outside noise. He was totally immersed in practicing the inner healing method.

A few hours later,

He felt mentally tired, so he stopped practicing the inner healing method. But he felt his physique was stronger than before.

He didn’t know whether it was an illusion brought on by the inner healing method, so he quickly pushed down these thoughts.

He stood up to leave. Then he smelled a foul odor coming from his body. A sticky black liquid was covering his skin. Seeing that, he hurriedly removed his shirt to take a look.

Then he saw impurities all over his body. Earlier, he felt an increase in rank. Now he realized it was real. To further verify, he paid attention to the gate inside his mental zone.

The door had concentric circles. The first circle’s first block was lit up with all the three Sub-blocks inside. Within the second block, the first sub-block was shining bright, which meant he had broken through.

[Tier-1, Rank-2 Early Stage]

He had reached the Rank-2 stage. Jeremy felt happiness. He was more sure of completing the mission tomorrow. After pushing down these thoughts, he immediately went to take a shower.

...

The following day,

After getting ready, Jeremy Night walked out of the dorm building. Last night, before going to sleep, Instructor Jacob had asked him about the inner healing method’s practice.

He told him about his discoveries. At that time, Instructor Jacob was truly happy because what he got was not an ordinary method but an Earth Grade method.

Now, he was happy that both the Dean and Instructor Jacob had paid attention to his talent. Then he also received a message from the Task Hall, giving him additional details for the mission.

After pushing down these thoughts, he resumed walking toward the university’s gate.

About ten minutes later,

He got closer to the exit. The guards asked for his proof. Jeremy showed his digital ID card. After checking the ID, they let him go.

After walking out of the university for the first time, Jeremy felt thrilled. Then he soon found the flying taxi. He asked the driver to drop him at the City A’s City Wall Patrolling office.

Hearing that, the driver agreed. Then Jeremy hopped into the car.

The driver started driving towards the location. The flying car joined other flying cars in mid-air. Then he started driving it in the lane.

Inside the car, sitting in the back seat, Jeremy was enjoying the outside view through the window. If he got free time, he thought about exploring the city.

All he could see were high-rise buildings obscuring his vision. There were also areas without many buildings, but some had green parks.

About ten minutes later, the flying taxi reached its destination. The flying car landed in front of the Patrol Administration Building, which was located next to the huge city wall.

Jeremy paid the fare before exiting the flying car. Then he started walking toward the office. It was mentioned in the message from last night that he had to meet someone inside this office.

After walking up to the entrance, he saw that the door was fully open. He could see that the staff were working inside. All of them were higher-tier Beast Tamers.

Suddenly, someone noticed his presence and turned towards him.

He nodded at the male staff member and walked toward him. The staff member was standing behind a glass wall, which had holes for communication.

”Who are you? What do you want?” the staff asked politely after noticing the uniform of Central University 14, City A.

Hearing that, Jeremy didn’t waste any time. He told the staff about the mission and also showed the mission details given to him by the Task Hall.

A few minutes later,

The staff had a look of understanding on his face. He remembered this mission given to Central University 14. It was a mission for first-years because it was an easy patrol mission.

The first years had to take action in case of any emergency. Otherwise, the patrol guards themselves would solve the problem.
