The Greatest Beast Tamer of Earth

A blurred thing passed by, making a swish sound in the air. It ripped through the air and hit the surface of the water. Instead of drowning, it bounced and went back; not a ripple appeared in the water for a while, then a small slash-like mark appeared.

A middle-aged man looked at it with his hand behind his back and said, “Well done! You have mastered ‘water cutting’ and ‘bouncing.’ With ‘boomerang,’ ‘swift,’ and ‘curve throw,’ you now know five tricks that you can blend into your Chakram attacks.

The silver-haired boy wiped his sweat and said, “How great it would have been if I had a suitable technique that could utilize everything I have learned. It will be very helpful when fighting against opponents.”

The middle-aged man looked at the boy with a complicated expression and sighed, “You are again complaining about it. I have told you many times that I use wind and fire elements in my chakram techniques. You can’t learn them even if I teach you.”

The boy looked at him with an excited look and said, “Then why not help me create my own technique with the shadow element as a base? I have not told you before, but I have high-level shadow manipulation.”

The eyes of the middle-aged man widened. His eyes lit up. “I thought you had low- or mid-level shadow manipulation, but to think you had high-level shadow manipulation, why not show me what you can do? It will help me create Chakram art for you.”

This was now the time for the boy to be surprised: “Are you serious? You’ll help me create Chakram art. You are not kidding, right?”

The reply appeared with laughter: “I know what I am saying, Kid, but that is only possible if you have that level of mastery of your element; otherwise, forget about it.”

The boy’s lips curled up into an excited smile. Fighting art was a combination of two or more techniques that could be used together and have synergy. They were very hard to find. What was even harder was getting one that was suitable for you.

“See then” The expression on the boy’s face became serious. He started summoning his shadow energy and the shadow element present in the environment; The area around them started getting darker. The eyes of the middle-aged man widened his mouth, following their lead.

A dark aura of violet energy appeared behind the boy. He pointed his hand, and multiple chains and weapons made up of shadow appeared behind him. He started rising in the air as two wings of Shadow appeared behind him. Even the purple-eyed boy was surprised by his own strength; he knew that he had gotten a lot stronger and that his ability to control shadows had far surpassed his imagination.

His shadow core came out of his body and attached itself to his chest. Dark energy radiated from it like ink and covered his whole body before transforming into full body armor. It was paper thin, but even from far away, one could sense its hardness when the boy himself looked at it.

He coughed and summoned his power back; The environment returned to normal. The black mist dissipated inside him; what remained was a middle-aged man standing like a statue. He was not surprised by the boy’s power but by his ability to control his element.

He had heard of the control of people with ethereal manipulation and knew what they were capable of, but this boy was way more powerful than them. He had an almost endless pool of shadow energy. He is just too inexperienced right now, but with experience, he will be way more powerful than his current self. He was surprised and astonished but kept a calm expression.

“So this is what you are capable of. The show was good, but I would like to inform you that you should never reveal this to anyone. And if they are revealed, you should silence them. Always remember, you are not only fighting against monsters; other humans are also your competitors.”

The boy was initially disappointed by the reaction but decided to forget about it. He looked at his teacher and asked, “So what do you think? Will I be able to create Chakram art?”

The middle-aged man nodded and said, “Of course, your control is satisfactory,” while in his mind he was thinking, ‘Who will be able to create it if even you can’t?’

“To create Chakram art, there are many requirements. First, we need a ‘Chakram Expert’ and an ‘Element Expert.’ Now we need to decide the properties of your chakram art. Think carefully; it should suit your fighting style while also being compatible with your element. Decide three to four unique features of your Chakram art,” he added.

The boy’s eyes shone in a golden glow as he started to think. He remained silent for some time before explaining. “I want it to be very good at assassination. While it should also be good at extended fights with my element, I think it should be unpredictable, stealthy, and fast.”𝓃𝑶𝐕𝑬𝓁𝐍𝑒xt.𝓬𝒐𝔪

“You want quite a lot; let’s see how it goes,” said the man as he sat down and started thinking about how to create such art. Rishi continued with his training while also thinking of ideas about his Chakram Technique, which he discussed with his teacher.

“Teacher I have seen Shadow Wolves fighting; I saw them changing into Ninja Stars and moving to attack their opponents. I think we can use this concept to create a movement technique,” said Rishi in an excited tone.

“The concept is good, but it is both risky and hard to copy. Instead, I think you can possess a chakra, which will help with your movement. Keep in mind that to know your limits, you must first practice entering your chakrams, and then, with the help of your ‘Shadow Blink’ skill, you will be able to enter any chakram within a ten-meter distance,” replied the middle-aged man.

“This also gave me inspiration for your second technique. You need to make your chakra faster, stealthier, and stronger by focusing on it. You also need to have full control of it; this will help you attack an opponent from a distance, and this will also strengthen your first technique,” he added.

“This is a wonderful idea, sir. After integrating the properties like ‘bounce,’ ‘swift,’ ‘camouflage,’ ‘water cutting,’ ‘curve throw,’ and ‘boomerang,’ which will all make it stronger, plus my ability to control weapons, I can travel for long distances and chase down anyone,” said the boy with excitement.

The middle-aged man rubbed his chin, and his eyes lit up. “I came up with the idea for the last skill. It can be an array of three chakrams. It will surround the opponent and deal damage to him for two seconds; You can also use your chain ability to hold the opponent while you use this ability to deal damage to him.”

“It does sound compatible with my skills,” replied the boy with a smile.

“Enough talk, Now that we have the concept, the next step is to create these suitable characteristics; This will take some time, but the result will be worth it.” The middle-aged man smiled as a confident smile appeared on his face.
