STRIKER: Independent Beast Tamer

5th Zone, City-A

Time passed.

That evening, Jeremy walked out of the practice room. He then quickly went to the bathroom to take a shower.

The bath lasted for 20 minutes. He then walked out and changed into comfortable clothes. Then, he went to the fridge and opened it.

He drank ice water before going to the sofa and sitting down. He then started to recall the training from today.

His first day of fist training went well. He had practiced those unpredictable moves.

But he found out that the physique of each person is different. So, the strike force of each person is different.

Instead of using blunt brute force, he wanted to hit the weak points of the body. He was going to continue training in that area.

After gaining some clarity, he got ready and left the room. He went for a walk in the beautiful garden. When he reached the lobby, he came across a staff member, Paul. He had a good chat with him. Then, he left the building and came to the footpath.

He saw dark clouds in the sky. It appeared it was going to rain anytime soon. The rain was not always a good thing. Sometimes, it was a toxic rain downpour.

Thunder!

A thundering sound occurred in the sky. Raindrops started falling shortly afterwards. A few raindrops fell on his face.

Jeremy touched his face and found out that the raindrops were not harmful. He had made the right decision to come outside.

He then started walking on the footpath.

Thunder!

The rain downpour began. His body began to get drenched in the rainwater. He felt good. Then, he started walking towards the beautiful garden.

He saw that, apart from him, there were others as well. His gaze passed over them; they were senior brothers and sisters.

They were enjoying getting wet in the rain. He then continued to walk. When he reached the beautiful garden, he sat down on the stone bench and continued to enjoy himself.

He was not the only one. It didn’t take long for a few more people to arrive. He saw Sister Melinda with the team members.

To be honest, they were his team members as well.

But he was not interested in talking to them. He ignored them and enjoyed the rain. Specifically, he saw Theo and Freya; the arrogant duo were with her as well.

On the other hand, Melinda noticed Jeremy Night as well. She was about to approach him, but then she saw the other team members.

She sighed inwardly. She knew the bonding among the members was not good. She wanted to take time to improve it.

”Looks like he is here as well. What is he doing alone?” Freya said suddenly.

Hearing that, Theo and the other members turned towards the direction and saw someone sitting on the bench alone.

Then they recognized the person was none other than their new team member.

”Is that Jeremy Night?”

”I heard he has been doing solo missions,” one of the members said.

Melinda’s eyes flashed with a glint. She thought the conversation was going somewhere else.

”Yes, he felt his strength was not enough. Once he becomes stronger, he will do team missions with us,” Melinda said to them.

Hearing that, the others understood and didn’t say anything, because they were part of the reason why Jeremy Night was not doing team missions with them.

The duo, Freya and Theo, had become quiet as well. They knew that the newcomer was not the same as before. He had completed some successful missions.

All of them were solo missions. Even they didn’t have such records.

Melinda then changed the topic and started talking about other things.

On the other hand, Jeremy enjoyed the rain. But he felt the sensation that someone was looking at him from time to time.

He soon found out the team members were keeping an eye on him. Even Senior Melinda was looking at him.

Jeremy then stood up and left the beautiful garden.

He went back towards the building. On the way, he came across other members. He then reached the building and entered inside.

He went to his room. After entering, he went to the bathroom to take a shower. He spent 20 minutes in the bath.

Later, he walked out and changed into comfortable clothes. He truly felt great now. He had thought he would get a call from Head Harold, but he didn’t get one.

It showed that Head Harold had yet to get any new fist techniques.

Jeremy Night was sure that Head Harold would find one. He then picked up his device and watched the online news.

He spent some time watching the news. The rain stopped after some time. He then started watching online videos of fist moves.

Time passed.

He didn’t know how long had passed, but the time was well past night. He stopped watching the videos and went to sleep.

The next morning, he started his daily routine again. After completing the routine, he entered the practice room and started running his breathing method.

Two hours later, he got ready and entered the practice room to follow his daily fist training schedule.

He started the basic fist move practice again. Compared to before, he analyzed more. He watched a lot of videos yesterday.

He had many creative ideas in his mind.

He was searching for which move and timing was best for him. While practicing, he lost track of time.

Like his sword practice, he didn’t find any trouble in practicing the fist moves. More than that, he felt somewhat natural at the fist moves.

Time passed.

He noticed that his awareness was better in close combat. Most of the time, he used the power of his eyes while using the blade against the corrupted beasts.

But during the fist move practice, he didn’t use the power of his eyes. If he used his eye power, it would become easy for him to fight.

He didn’t want to do that. He was going to practice like others. But he knew that in the wilderness, any means necessary were used to kill the corrupted beasts.

So, he was going to use his time here to train without using eye power.
