The Greatest Beast Tamer of Earth

The guild members looked back and saw another person looking at them; he was not visible at night. One of the guild members asked, “Who are you?”

“I am his friend,” replied Dilip.

“So you are his teammate, Leave right now, or we will eliminate you as well,” warned the other member.

“I don’t want to fight; hand him over to me, and I will let three of you go,” replied Dilip. Rishi also opened his eyes when he heard Dilip’s voice; he thought he was done for and would be eliminated, but he got enraged when he thought it would have never happened if Dilip had helped him before.

One of the members looked at Rishi and said, “Do you believe he can save you? He will follow you after we eliminate you.”

“Do you believe you alone can defeat us?” mocked one member.

“I am asking you one last time to hand him over; I don’t want to fight you three, as this was all my friend’s fault. Don’t force me to fight you,” said Dilip.

“Eliminate him as well; he talks big,” suggested one member.

“Wait,” the other member said to his friend, “we will give him back if you give us all of your points.”

“You can’t blame me,” said Dilip as he took out a spear and threw it at the swordsman of the team. The spear was so fast that before the swordsman could even think of what was happening, it had entered his body, eliminating him.

Dilip took out another spear and jumped at the remaining two; before they could defend themselves, Dilip used a movement skill and reached their back, then he attacked twice with his spear and eliminated both of them.

He summoned his contract beast, picked up the unwilling Rishi, and started moving toward their camp. “You could have come earlier; I was just a second away from being eliminated,” said Rishi in pain.

“I already told you that I would not interfere; I am already breaking my principles to help you, and this is how you thank me for saving you,” said Dilip in a disappointed tone.

This brought Rishi back, and he calmed down; he kept quiet as he had nothing to say. After some time, he apologized. “I am sorry I could have been more careful, and thank you for saving me”

“You don’t need to thank me; I am doing it for Dev and Ajit,” replied Dilip. Only the sound of Dilip’s contract beast running was audible for some time.

Dilip broke the silence by saying, “Now you know what I told you never get arrogant. There are many people way more talented than you.”

“Your talent is just above average, but you can compete with other talented people due to your luck and hard work. You are overconfident because you have never had any setbacks,” he added.

“What do you know? I have seen hell. Everyone close to me died one by one in front of me; at one point, I even gave up hope of living,” Rishi said, sad.

“What do I know? I know about this world way more than you. At least you know what it means to have someone close to you. I don’t know anything about my past; I only get bad dreams in between, which remind me of what my past could have been.”

“The only thing I remember is that I was also arrogant, and because of this, I lost everything and was thrown into a forest after getting most of my strength sealed. Do you know I can only use less than half of my strength at every level? I also only remember basic skills, and I cannot learn new ones.”

“Even my first contract beast is sealed, Do you think your situation is as bad as mine? I am only strong here because we are in a backward place; if I even go to our state’s capital, I will be unable to tour the capital and see things from a limited perspective; Rishi or you will always remain like a frog in a well.”

“Think big, but also remember never to underestimate any of your enemies,” Dilip said sadly. “Your opponents just now were not that strong; you could have trounced them if you didn’t get ambushed by them.”

“Then you had one more chance to escape when they all thought you were eliminated, but instead of escaping, your ego and greed blinded you again,” he added.

Rishi quietly listened to everything Dilip said without agreeing or denying anything; deep inside, he knew Dilip was right, but he was too ashamed to admit his mistake and decided to remain quiet.

They both reached their camp after some time, and everyone panicked when they saw Rishi’s condition. They had never even seen him bleed; now, he was there with his whole body covered in injuries.

Dev gave Rishi some potion and applied bandages to the wounds all over his body with the team’s help; Rishi summoned Sheru and asked Dev to treat him as well. After which, Rishi closed his eyes and started resting.𝔫𝑂𝗏𝑒𝐋𝑵𝑒xt.𝑐𝔬𝑚

“What happened to him?” asked Dev.

“Nothing much; he just got careless and fell into a trap,” replied Dilip.

“He has cuts all over his body, Do you think I am an idiot? Tell me the truth,” said Dev.

“He was ambushing a guild at night and got caught,” replied Dilip.

“Alone? Weren’t you with him?” asked Dev.

“I was, but you know me; I don’t attack sleeping people, I warned him we should return, but he said he didn’t need my help. “Dilip told everything to Dev.

“You should have helped him when they were chasing him,” said Dev.

“I could have, but I decided to give him a lesson that he will never forget his whole life. Today I could have saved him, but who knows when he would have tried to do something similar in real life? Here, he will only lose points, but he could even lose his life outside,” said Dilip.

“You could have helped him, Dilip; now, how will we fight with only four members?” asked Dev.

“Don’t think much about it. He has eliminated two guilds, and if you count my kills, we have eliminated three guilds; we only need to get little more points and will easily win. He will also recover until the evening with the help of potions; we will fight with full strength in the evening,” replied Dilip.

“Welcome, guys; we are on the final day of the second round of the Mazar Academy Juniors Guild Competition. We will start our stream by looking at the leaderboard,” said Caster as the leaderboard became visible on the viewers’ screens.

“What the heck! What happened on the coaster? Is there some mistake?” said the caster in surprise. “Guys, It looks like there’s some Castor. Let me ask the instructor.” The caster called the instructor and asked if there had been a mistake; the instructor told him it had happened to every caster.

“So this is what happened,” said the Caster as he was told the whole story; he still couldn’t believe such a thing had happened.

“Guysconfirmedconformed everything. There is no mistake; many things happened last night. “It’s not the first time some guilds have attacked others, but there has never been such a big shift in ranking.”

“Let’s look at the footage available to us.” The video started playing when Rishi was guarding; Rishi’s first triple kill was recorded. After showing, Dilip and Rishi looked for the other two members.

“In this clip, we can see that Midnight Ghosts guild here members attacked All-STARS, but due to their carelessness, they were eliminated by Rishab. Did you guys see his ‘Quick Draw’? It was so amazing,” as the clip of Rishi using the ‘Quick Draw’ could be seen on the screen in slow motion.

“After eliminating the three members, Rishab and Dilip followed their tracks to locate their camp.” Then, Rishab used his bow to get a double kill, which completed his ‘Penta Kill.’ The scene where Rishi shot two members with one arrow was shown on the screen.

“Then Rishab entered their hut and came back with a map; what is in that map?” The camera was zoomed in, and the map appeared on the screen.

“So their Rishab got the location of two more guilds. Did he eliminate them?” the Caster inquired, surprised, as the video of Rishi entering the camp and exiting with blood on his sword became visible. The video also showed his smirk, sending a chill to all the viewers looking at him.

“One more Penta kill; I know many viewers will criticize him, but trust me, every other person would have done the same thing, and this is a game,” said Caster.

“Oh, so no one was guarding the last camp? That sounds suspicious.” The video of Rishi entering with Sheru was shown, and he got ambushed by five people at once. How Sheru defended Rishi also became visible, which made many people emotional, but most of them enjoyed it when they saw Rishi getting punished for his sins.

“Then many attacks were launched toward Rishab, but no one was visible after, and what are these guys discussing? They are also confused like us,” said the Caster. The video showed how the guild members were arguing and then Rishi’s attack and escape.

“Where did Rishab come from? He eliminated the two most important members of their guild. Will he be able to escape?” said Caster. The video was shown where enemies were chasing Rishi and how they finally caught him, and the scene in which they were torturing Rishi was also shown. Many viewers were happy but soon felt pity for Rishi, at last, the scene of Dilip executing three opponents was shown.

“So he survived? And Dilip—where was he all the time? There is too much uncertainty, but one thing is sure: All-STARS have a 90% chance of winning. The main fight will be for second place; let’s see who wins.”
