STRIKER: Independent Beast Tamer

5th Zone, City-A

Shopping mall

”Well, thanks again for the necklace,” Jeremy said to her.

”It’s okay, I have a doubt. I have never seen you in the first-years,” Catherine said with a smile.

Hearing that, Jeremy was stunned. Then he realised she could be thinking he was a first-year student, but he was not.

He then smiled and said, ”I’m not a student of Central University 5. I’m a member of the Red Moon Chamber.”

”What?”

”Red Moon Chamber,” Catherine uttered in shock.

She was putting up an excellent act. Even the guards behind her were taken aback. They didn’t expect the young lady to speak like that.

Jeremy Night was observing her reaction. He also noticed the reactions of the guards behind her.

”What’s going on?” His eyes flashed with doubt.

Catherine then said, ”Organizations normally don’t accept a Tier-2 Beast Tamer. That’s why I was surprised.”

”It was an internal transfer. I moved from the 10th Zone branch,” Jeremy said.

Then he realised the conversation was getting rather deep. So, he cut it short and said, ”I have work to do. See you later.”

After saying that, he went to the cab service.

Catherine recovered her thoughts. She was truly surprised inside. She was wondering how the Red Moon Chamber got a Tier-2 Beast Tamer as a member.

Since she knew the fact now, she thought Jeremy Night was a talented Beast Tamer.

Unfortunately, she couldn’t continue the conversation further. She watched him leave in the flying cab.

The guards around her turned towards her.

One of them said, ”Young lady, the young man was originally from the 10th Zone. I heard that the Red Moon Chamber was merged with the Organisation there. That’s why it got ’Moon’ in their organisation name.”

Catherine’s eyes flickered.

She said, ”He said himself that he got here through an internal transfer. He originally belonged to another organisation.”

”He is of a similar age to me. Both of us are Tier-2 Beast Tamers. But there is a difference between the 5th Zone and the 10th Zone. Resources here are rich.”

”If he had been born here, he could have become a Tier-3 Beast Tamer. It’s good that I have made a good connection with him,” she added.

She then turned around and left with her friends.

What she didn’t know was that someone from the Silver Dominion was watching all of this. He was a middle-aged man left alone here by his members.

He was bored of following Jeremy Night. That’s why he was standing in one place. But he didn’t expect to come across the young lady from the Rosewood Family.

Now that the target and the young lady had met, they could be good friends in the future. It was not good news for them.

Many young masters in the city wanted to make friends with her. Yet she was here to meet the new kid in the city.

The middle-aged man then shared the key information with the higher-ups. The person who heard this piece of news was dumbfounded as well.

He found it hard to believe that it was a chance meeting. Yet the meeting had happened. The young lady gave something to the young man.

If the news were to be leaked, the young man would be targeted by competitors.

The Silver Dominion didn’t have to target the young man anymore. It would save them some manpower.

The elder decided to leak the news.

Meanwhile,

Jeremy Night returned to the organisation. He quickly started rushing to his room. He felt everything was surreal.

The staff and the members were surprised. They didn’t know why the young man was in a hurry.

Though they were disappointed by the appointment, it didn’t mean that they stopped monitoring his activities.

So, they became curious about his actions.

After reaching his room, he locked the door and walked up to the sofa.

He didn’t expect to meet a Central University student in the shopping mall. He sat on the sofa and started to recall everything in his mind from the beginning.

He found the expression of the guards at that time to be in disbelief. As if they didn’t believe the words of the young lady.

”I’m sure she was not following me. Our meeting in the mall was a coincidence. But there could be something hidden behind her actions.”

”Why would she give the necklace to him?” Jeremy muttered.

Only he knew that the green necklace was not ordinary. The green pearl in that necklace contained a massive source of energy.

As he continued to replay the events in his mind, he found something was not right. But he couldn’t pinpoint what it was, except the expression of the guards at that time.

He then shook his head and put these thoughts to the back of his mind. Then he shifted his attention to the green necklace.

He took the storage box from the storage bracelet. He opened the storage box. A green necklace came into view.

The next second, the unknown beast egg inside his mental zone vibrated. Feeling that, he knew the reaction was real.

But he decided to use the green pearl the next morning. Then he placed the box inside the storage bracelet.

Then he took out the device to watch the online news. He wanted to know what happened at the front line.

The battle was intense. He didn’t know whether the corrupted beasts count was reduced or not.

Then he saw the live streaming of news. Finally, there was some positive news.

The City Guards and the Beast Tamers from various organisations managed to kill a large number of corrupted beasts.

The intense fighting had stopped right now. Seeing that, he heaved a sigh of relief. Every day seemed to be a Beast Invasion situation. The Beast Tamers had to be ready.

...

Meanwhile,

The elder from the Silver Dominion released the news of Catherine Rosewood’s friend through spies.

Normally, the news wouldn’t attract the attention of big families. But it was different news for the young beast tamers.

Especially the young male beast tamers from rich families; they had a habit of collecting intel. This intel gave them a huge surprise.

They knew it was hard to approach Catherine Rosewood. Yet she made friends with someone.
