STRIKER: Independent Beast Tamer-Chapter 49: Return
Shortly afterwards,
Jeremy returned with the Captain. Everyone’s gazes fell on him again. Their gazes were filled with awe and suspicion. Unless they heard it from the Captain, they wouldn’t believe it.
"I have verified it. Jeremy had indeed slain the Tier-3 Corrupted Beast," the middle-aged Captain said.
Gasp!
The exclamation sounded louder. Because the Captain himself was the one saying it, the Department Instructors slowly accepted the information.
Instructor Jacob’s smile widened. Even Instructor Ariel Burt revealed a bright smile as well. The surprise was so great that they were starting to accept it slowly.
"The Department Rankings will be announced tomorrow. The rankings will be sent to your I.D.," the middle-aged man said before ordering the University Patrol Teams to return.
Because it was time to get back to University 14.
Jeremy returned to Instructor Jacob’s side.
"You have caught me off guard. I never thought you could face Tier-3 Corrupted Beasts in your 1st year," Jacob said with a sigh.
"Little guy, don’t tell me you had prior experience," Ariel asked, because she saw how calm and collected Jeremy was, as if it were not a big deal.
"Yes, it was not my first Tier-3 kill," Jeremy replied.
"I knew it," Ariel raised her eyebrows in surprise.
Even Jacob was taken aback. He seemed to realize he knew nothing about Jeremy’s past experiences.
"This kid is from the City C Governor Family. His words might be true," Jacob thought.
Not long after, the patrol teams arrived. Everyone hopped into vehicles to fly back to the university.
Fifteen minutes later,
One after another, several flying vehicles rose from the ground. Then they started moving towards the university in an orderly manner.
Jeremy was in the vehicle with the Medicine Department’s Beast Tamers. Some curious people couldn’t help but kept asking questions.
He answered them one by one. They were all heading to the same building to attend their class. Jeremy didn’t want to cause any problems or create a bad impression.
Because these people might inform their Department Instructor. If he wanted to develop the Striker Department, he needed the support of people, especially from the Medicine Department.
On the other hand, the Medicine Department Beast Tamers were surprised to see Jeremy’s reaction. They thought he would be arrogant after killing the Tier-3 Corrupted Beasts.
Instead, he was interacting with everyone as usual, which made many of them have a good impression of him. Hereafter, they wouldn’t hesitate to strike up a conversation with Jeremy.
Most importantly, they wouldn’t see him as a loner in the Striker Department. Everyone respects strength, even if they were Beast Tamers from a different department.
About an hour later,
The flying vehicles entered the university campus. After landing on the field, the students parted ways with the Instructor and started heading back to their dorms.
"Jeremy, I think it’s time for you to practice the breathing method. I’ll look into the collections to find a suitable one for you," Jacob said after stepping out of the vehicle.
Hearing that, Jeremy recalled something important before asking, "Instructor, I need fighting methods as well, especially one that suits the katana blade style."
"I will keep that in mind," Jacob said.
Jeremy then nodded to him and Instructor Ariel Burt before leaving.
Shortly afterwards,
He returned to the dorm building. After entering the dorm room, he went to take a shower. It lasted for 20 minutes.
After stepping out, he wore comfortable clothes. He had spent most of the night recovering his Starlight energy. He had hardly gotten any sleep.
So he immediately went to bed without looking at the clock.
...
Dean’s Office:
"Iron Face, take out the corpse of the Tier-3 Corrupted Snake," Dean Carolyn asked.
The middle-aged Captain’s nickname was Iron Face. After returning, he quickly came to see the Dean.
After hearing the Dean’s order, he took out the remains of the corrupted snake and placed them on the floor.
Carolyn stood up. Her gaze fell on the remains. The remains were only half left; they had been eaten up by the underground tunnel’s corrupted beasts.
Her powerful eyes noticed something: the neck was cleanly severed by Jeremy’s katana blade. Not only that, she also saw traces of silver-colored energy, which she had seen covering Jeremy Night’s katana blade before.
She confirmed for herself that the kill was legitimate and done by Jeremy Night himself.
"I’m glad that Jeremy was the one who fought against this Tier-3 Corrupted Beast," Carolyn said in an emotionless tone.
Hearing that, the middle-aged man was shocked to the core. Her words confirmed that Jeremy Night had indeed killed the Tier-3 Corrupted Beast.
"What?" Carolyn asked, noticing Iron Face’s gaze.
"Dean, did you know it before?" he asked.
"Yeah, the secret information shows that he had fought against the Tier-3 Corrupted Beast before—not one, but two of them on separate occasions," Carolyn said while sitting back down at her seat.
Gasp!
The Captain sucked in a cold breath of air. Once again, he thought that Jeremy’s talent was not ordinary. He looked at the Dean and asked, "Dean, wasn’t he A-Grade talent?"
Carolyn smiled and said, "Yes, he is A-Grade talent. His Supreme Combat Body is most suitable for individual fights. Not only that, he has mastered the basics of the katana blade style."
"Most importantly, he has a high-level Bloodline lifeline beast," she thought to herself but didn’t say it, as it was confidential.

"Alright, you can leave. Take the remains with you," Carolyn said.
Hearing that, the middle-aged Captain took the beast remains and left the room.
Dean Carolyn recalled the small silver particles. Her eyes flashed with a glint.
"Maybe the kid can fight on par with S-Graders with the help of special energy," she thought.
Next, she had to make arrangements for the Striker Department. The Striker Department urgently needed funds. They didn’t have their own department building.
Most importantly, they didn’t have students. Jeremy Night was the only one in his class. To solve the problem, she decided to make a special recruitment.
There were Beast Tamers who had failed the requirements of other departments. Some of them had body-type talent.
