Chapter 14: Mission: Hunting an Epic-rank Beast!

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Back in the Starlux Gym.

Giles sat at the computer desk and opened the website exclusive to Beast Tamers.

He had never opened this website before.

This was a communication platform set up by the Beast Tamer Association.

Here, Beast Tamers could exchange information about their usual beast taming experience and information about various spirit beasts. They could also issue missions for other Beast Tamers to complete.

Giles had come for these tasks.

If these spirit beasts hadn’t evolved, the resources left behind in the gym could completely satisfy their daily needs.

.

However, some of the spirit beasts had begun to evolve after Giles told them stories.

After evolving, the spirit beasts’ appetites were naturally larger than before. In a few days, they would eat Giles broke.

Hence, Giles had to find a way to make money.

This was also the reason why he went for the Gold-rank Beast Tamer evaluation.

After becoming a Gold-rank Beast Tamer, he would receive a monthly allowance.

Aside from that, Gold-rank Beast Tamers could see more missions.

The reason for that was that in this website, the missions that Beast Tamers of every rank saw were limited.

Only after reaching a certain level would they have the authority to unlock it.

This was to prevent some Beast Tamers from receiving missions that exceeded their abilities and ultimately encountering danger, thereby losing their lives in vain.

With these thoughts in mind, Giles opened the missions that Gold-rank Beast Tamers could accept and checked them out.

A moment later…

A mission caught his attention.

[Recruiting Gold-rank Beast Tamer, heading out of the city to hunt ferocious beasts.]

This mission tempted Giles.

Hunting ferocious beasts outside the city was the daily routine of many Beast Tamers.

Hundreds of years ago, ferocious beasts appeared and attacked humans.

In the end, it was because of the appearance of Beast Tamers that stopped the destruction of mankind.

However, they did not completely exterminate the ferocious beasts. They merely chased them back into the forest.

Until now, humans and ferocious beasts had become mortal enemies. From time to time, ferocious beasts would attack human society.

For example, Yin City had been attacked by ferocious beasts last year.

If not for the numerous Beast Tamers in the city stopping them, Yin City might have been destroyed.

Therefore, for the sake of Yin City’s safety, Beast Tamers would head out of the city to hunt ferocious beasts.

On the other hand, this was also a way to earn money.

The entire body of a ferocious beast was filled with treasures. Its leather armor could be used as a protective suit, its bones could be used as a weapon, and its blood could be used as medicine.

It was because of this that human society could develop rapidly.

There were even tournaments like the Beast Tamer Tournament.

By becoming the champion of the Beast Tamer Tournament, not only would that person gain reputation, but they would also obtain many resources for nurturing spirit beasts.

No matter how trashy a spirit beast was, with these resources, it could at least grow into a Legend-rank spirit beast.

This was also to motivate humans to produce stronger Beast Tamers.

With these thoughts in mind, Giles contacted the person who posted the mission and expressed his desire to join the team.

After waiting for a while, a message came from the other side, saying that they wanted to have a chat in person.

This was exactly what Giles wanted.

After all, the outside of the city was filled with danger, so Giles also wanted to understand the overall strength of this team.

Soon, the other party sent him a location.

It was a cafe that was not far from the Starlux Gym.

Giles immediately rushed over.

When he reached the place, Giles was surprised to find an acquaintance.

It was Bart, who had come to the gym to challenge him previously.

“Grandpa, this is the Giles whom I told you about.”

Stunned when he saw Giles, Bart then spoke to an old man with a white beard.

Giles followed Bart over to the old man.

He was surprised to see that it was Rex, an Epic-rank Beast Tamer.

When the ferocious beasts attacked last year, Rex had killed many of the beasts with his Epic-rank Fiery Bird and became a hero among the people.

Furthermore, he was usually kind and friendly, and was also a senior that many Beast Tamers respected.

Except that Giles hadn’t expected him to be Bart’s grandfather.

However, he did not take it to heart.

Giles immediately walked up and greeted Rex, “Hello, Mr Rex.”

Rex was sizing Giles up, and he smiled when he heard that.

“Hello, I’ve heard about you from Bart.”

“You’re not simple. You’re already a Gold-rank Beast Tamer now.”

“That old fart actually told us that you didn’t have any talent for taming beasts and lied to us for so long.”

Giles smiled at that, knowing what he meant.

The old fart that Rex referred to was the previous gym leader of the Starlux Gym.

Rex thought the previous gym leader had deliberately hid Giles’ talent.

However, only Giles knew that this was all because the previous gym leader was unreliable.

Yet, he couldn’t explain it to Rex.

“Thank you for your praise, but I still have other matters to attend to. I’ll head over first.”

Stroking his snowy beard, Rex nodded.

Then, Giles walked to a table at the side and sat down. He sent a message to the person who posted the mission, informing him that he had arrived.

Just then, Rex took out his communicator and took a look.

When he saw the message on it, he paused momentarily. Then, he smiled.

Then, he walked straight to Giles’ table and sat down.

“Hello, Mr Giles. I’m the person who posted this mission.”

Although the Beast Tamer platform was registered under a real name system, unless they were very familiar with each other, they would not know the other party’s identity.

Now that he suddenly found out that the person who posted the mission was Epic-rank Beast Tamer Rex, Giles was shocked.

“I was thinking of going to Starlux Giles to invite Mr Giles to join my team, but I didn’t expect you to come here yourself. This is really fate.”

Upon hearing this, Giles immediately became alert.

An Epic-rank Beast Tamer actually wanted to invite him, a Gold-rank Beast Tamer.

Why?

However, Rex soon offered him an explanation.

“Does Mr Giles know what I encountered not long ago?”

“What?”

“At that time, I was riding on Fiery Bird and flying in the sky when a ray of light suddenly rushed towards me.”

“Even from far away, I could feel the terrifying energy emanating from it.”

“If it weren’t because I dodged quickly, this old man wouldn’t exist in this world anymore.”

Upon hearing this, Giles frowned.

Why does this feel so familiar?

Then, Rex looked at Giles and said, “At first, I thought that some unknown beast had attacked me. When I got home, Bart told me that it was your spirit beast.”

Upon hearing this, Giles scratched his head awkwardly, not knowing what to say.

In his heart, he had already cursed Little Beetle dozens of times.

He could forget about it shattering the protective barrier of the training ground.

Good lord, it nearly knocked down an Epic-rank Beast Tamer.

Fortunately, it didn’t succeed. Otherwise, there would be a report in the City Daily newspaper tomorrow.

Epic-rank Beast Tamer Rex was shot down by a mysterious beast in the air…

At the thought of this, Giles did not dare to continue that train of thought.

“Of course, you don’t have to take it to heart, My Giles. I’m not here to blame you.”

Rex suddenly became serious.

“Mr Giles, is the spirit beast that launched the attack really your contracted spirit beast?”

Confused, Giles nodded.

“Yes, it is indeed my contracted spirit beast.”

Hearing that, Rex looked relieved and told Giles about the mission.

A moment later…

Giles shot up from his chair.

“What?! You want to hunt an Epic-ranked spirit beast?!”
