STRIKER: Independent Beast Tamer-Chapter 243: Jeremy is under a travel ban
City Gate:
Captain Nathan has collected all the details. He then looks at Jeremy Night and says, "You should avoid going outside for some time."
"I'll try my best to find out the culprits," he adds.
Hearing that, I nodded to them. Then Captain Nathan left the place.
Jeremy then appeared outside. Instructor Jacob and Department Elder looked at him. Oldman Derek didn't want to discuss anything here.
So he said, "Let's go back to the university first."
Hearing that, everyone nodded their heads.
...
Central University 14:
Then with the flying taxi, everyone returned to the university 15 minutes later.
Jeremy was silent in his heart. He knew there was going to be another interrogation in the dean's office. It happened just like he had guessed.
The Department Elder took me to the dean's office. Dean Carolyn seemed to be waiting for me.
"I guess she hasn't slept all night as well. Kid, you are bringing us one trouble after another," Derek jokingly said.
Hearing that, Jeremy wanted to curse in his heart. He knew he was facing a problem because the university was unwilling to offend powerful people.
Creak!
We reached her office and walked inside. It was just starting to get sunrise, yet she was awake. Jeremy was surprised to see that she was looking at him.
She knew the elder must have told her.
"Jeremy, how are you?" Carolyn asked.
"Dean, I'm fine. I managed to escape alive," Jeremy replied.
"Take your seat," she said.
Then we both sat down. She started the same inquiry again. Jeremy once again began to tell a lie.
About a few minutes later,
"Jeremy Night, you should avoid going outside. We don't know the identities of these people. It's best for you to stay away from the wilderness until we find out about them," Carolyn said with concern.
Hearing that, Jeremy nodded to her.
"You can leave now," she said.
Hearing that, Jeremy stood up and exited the room.
After Jeremy left the room, she turned towards the elder.
"Watch over him. Don't let him go to the wilderness. I will put his name on the ban list. He won't be able to accept the mission," Carolyn said.
Oldman Derek nodded to her, but he sighed inwardly. He knew her actions were too much. But Jeremy Night's safety was important right now.
"It's good that City Police Nathan is investigating the case. Elder Derek, cooperate with him. At least we should know who is causing the problem. We can't blindly accuse those Beast Taming Families," Carolyn said.
"Okay, dean," Derek said.
After the meeting, he left, and Carolyn decided to take a nap as well. She hadn't slept at all. Only after knowing about Jeremy Night's safety could she relax.
Meanwhile,
Jeremy Night texted Daniel Stone and Betsy Lowe about his return. But he told them that he might not be able to return. He was going to sleep all day.
Soon, he returned to his room. He closed the door and went to bed to sleep.
...
Time passed.
After sunrise, the whole city awoke. People started their daily activities. Captain Nathan returned to the station after getting details from the City Guard Captain.
Since the mercenaries had tried to kill Jeremy Night, he thought they wouldn't survive because of the Tier-5 Beast. Even if one of them escaped, he could find out the details.
But he had collected information about the list of people who ventured into the wilderness. If the Beast Tamers were really paid to kill Jeremy Night,
He thought they must have entered the wilderness after Jeremy Night. From the name list, he could single out the Mercenary Teams and start searching for them.
...
Central University 14:
The 2nd-year student Billy was waiting for good news. He knew that Jeremy Night and his two members had entered the wilderness last night.
But he had yet to receive any information from the Mercenary Team. This time, he had sent a strong team after Jeremy Night. The team was full of Tier-4 Beast Tamers, so he didn't think Jeremy Night could survive.
However, when he entered the class, he was shocked to know that two members of the STRIKER Department were alive. He asked his classmates to confirm the news.
They were senior students, and they immediately got the news from the first years. They were able to determine that Jeremy Night had yet to return.
But Daniel Stone and Betsy Lowe were spotted.
Billy furrowed his eyebrows. He had given them clear instructions. If the Mercenary Team came across the trio, then they could kill the trio without thinking much.
Yet the two members had returned. Billy was confused. He felt this task might fail as well.
"I have paid so much. What are these mercenaries doing?" Billy said in his heart.
Nobody knew about his actions, including his classmates and the 3rd-year senior Timothy.
Billy decided to wait and see. He didn't think Jeremy Night could survive the attack of Tier-4 Beast Tamers.
Time passed.
Betsy Lowe and Daniel Stone were training separately. They were not as worried as yesterday. After knowing that Jeremy Night was safe and sound, their mood improved. They knew that Jeremy was taking a rest today.
So they continued with their practice.
Meanwhile,
Instructor Jacob also learned that Jeremy Night was taking the day off. So he was relaxed. The Department Head had asked him to keep an eye on Jeremy Night.
He didn't know what had happened, but he could guess that it was difficult for Jeremy Night to take on missions anytime soon.
Time passed.
Post-noon, Jeremy woke up from sleep. The tiredness and mental fatigue were gone. He had recovered to his peak state.
After getting out of bed, he began to get ready.
About an hour later,
Jeremy Night was watching the news online dressed in comfortable clothes. He didn't plan on going outside today. He was taking time to figure out many things on his mind.
The joy of reaching Tier-1, 9th Rank- Peak Stage had faded from his heart. Now he was thinking about his enemies.
