The Greatest Beast Tamer of Earth

There were long trees stretching out, filled with green life; it looked like an evergreen forest. The cries of magic beasts could be heard everywhere, signaling the presence of life. The cold wind blew, making the leaves and branches hit each other and creating nature’s melody.

The falling leaves moved up with the wind and reached the mountain. One of them hit the face of a figure who didn’t move or close his eyes; the purple iris looked at the wind pushing him back. He looked at the calm beautiful scene for a while.

Lost in his thoughts, he didn’t know how much time had passed when his smartphone suddenly ‘rang,’ and a voice message could be heard in his own voice: “This is a reminder. You have still not read the final letter from Father.” His body shook as realization hit him; he searched in his ring and took out an envelope.

He had not opened it even after reaching the Elite Stage, as he knew it was the last letter from his father and it would disappear as soon as he opened it. He clenched it hard, still not sure what to do. After thinking for a while, he decided that at least he should read it; his father might have written something important.

He opened it and started to read.

[Dear Rishi,

How are you? You don’t know how proud I am of you right now. I always knew you would achieve great things in life.

I am left with no words; I am happy to know that you are able to become someone capable of surmounting obstacles on your own. Now that you might have already seen how the world works, you no longer require my guidance.

Till now, I gave you some tasks in the previous letters so you wouldn’t get lost in sorrow, but now that I believe you have matured, it’s time for you to decide what you want.

Don’t live in the past; think ahead. What do you like? What do you want to do? It’s time for you to ask these questions and clear your thoughts. Don’t be blinded by revenge; your goal should be something that you enjoy and never regret.

Son, believe in yourself. Today I release you from all responsibilities you had as my son, Live freely from now on. Not everyone is blessed to be free in this world.

The letter disintegrated in front of him, leaving behind nothing but ash. His eyes opened up as if he had realized something. He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and stayed like that for a while before standing up and feeling the wind touching his face. He felt as if a heavy load had been lifted from his back. His silver hair fluttered in the air as he jumped from the mountain.

The wind smacked his face; His clothes stuck to his skin and fluttered in the air. He looked at the valley, opened his arms, and felt the moment. “So this is what it means to be free—to have no responsibilities.” He dived and moved faster; the blowing air made it harder to keep his eyes open.

He closed his eyes again. “What to do now, then?” His eyes shone in a golden glow, and time slowed down for him. He thought, “While I have no responsibilities, I can’t leave what I have already started, so creating Punaya City will still be my objective. I am also sick of the Tiwari Clan, so I will not change my plan to destroy them; they are set on eliminating me.’

“All-Stars is something I created for fun; letting it grow will give me many advantages. As for the Assasin Guild, I have already sent the first member to follow Vinay to his clan, where he will get training in the “Art of Assassination.”

“What is my goal? What do I like?” He asked the question; he has not had many good memories from his childhood. He thought of his time in the clan and how he lost everything. Then he started thinking of his life after becoming a beast tamer.

The memory was still clear to him when, for the first time, the people in his town praised him. He always thought other people’s views didn’t affect him, but he realized later that he was also a human at heart. As a human living in society is still embedded in his DNA, it will take him some time to overcome these mortal bindings.

His life as a student at the academy was the golden life he had lived, even in harsh conditions. He was happy, He liked the feeling of exploring the world and making a name for himself. He liked the battles when he competed with his opponents and tried his best to win against all odds. That feeling of thrill was something worth dying for; It was then that a memory hidden in the depths of his head surfaced.𝔫𝞸𝒱𝞮𝐿𝒏𝐞xt.𝑪𝒪𝗆

A silver-haired kid could be seen looking at a big screen in front of him. Two participants could be seen standing in the middle of the arena. On one side was a black-haired boy with blue eyes; there was a strange circular pattern embedded in his iris. Facing him was a brown-haired boy with green eyes. He swung his spear around, creating a blur, and said, “Give up, Arun. You are out of mana and stamina. With these deep wounds all over your body, your life will be in danger if you continue. I respect your fighting spirit and courage, but there is a thin line between bravery and stupidity.”

The brown-haired boy looked at his opponent. His brown face, with many streams of blood, had no trace of worry or concern. He said, “Save your words, Yue Bu; you are also not in your prime. The last fight has cost you a lot of mana, and the result of this fight is still not decided,” he said, pointing his sword at his opponent.

Lu Yue smiled before jumping at his opponent with a green aura, surfacing his spear. His opponent also swung his sword covered in a blue Aura and attacked. ‘Clang,’ their weapons collided, ‘boom,’ and explosions followed their attacks. They fought fiercely.

The battle continued for a while before they both launched their final attacks and fainted.

“Woh,” “Who won?”

A gray-haired elder with the boy replied, “It was a tie. That was the Asia Championship match.”

“That was cool. I will also enter it and defeat all my opponents like Arun,” said the boy in an enthusiastic tone.

The elder man laughed and rubbed his chin beard, saying, “You will need to work very hard then. The best talents of Asia compete there.”

“Was it me?” he asked. “Well, that was a very good goal to have; the younger version of me had a clear goal. Was that why I trained so hard from childhood? Have I forgotten all that as I was lost in sorrow?” he sighed. “From now on, I will enter every competitive tournament and try to give my best. Will I feel happy then? Only time will tell.”

He opened his eyes and noticed the trees moving; something was carrying him over the dark forest. “Thank you for the ride,” he said as he summoned a chain and attacked the claws carrying him. He started falling; He looked up and saw a huge, feathered magic beast. “I will let you go alive, as I am in a good mood,” he said as a chain appeared out of nowhere and hit the magic beast, throwing him away.

He summoned one more chain and used it to land smoothly on a tree. “Where am I?”
