He is practicing imaginary targets. He wants to get into the intermediate stage of sword skill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The insights into the intermediate stage was not enough. So he devoted his time to practice. So much so he forgot about the outside noise including Nico Rossi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the time passes, he is getting better at it. He is engrossed in practising the sword skill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>---\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The official statement has alarmed the city. The locals, Mercenary teams, small and medium sized organisations are shocked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They got this notice out of nowhere. Their livelihood depends on the wilderness. If no one is allowed to enter, then how can they make money?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But people with discerning eyes can tell that something is wrong with the wilderness. The city administration noticed it and put the ban.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially, the Mercenary Teams who had lost members in the past few days had no problem in accepting the ban.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because they too felt something was going on. Now the official statement confirmed their thoughts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, they can avoid unnecessary losses. The organisations behind them can shut their mouth and won’t force them to enter the wilderness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So they all welcomed the ban.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the other hand, the heads of the top organisations who had a meeting with the administration yesterday weren’t surprised by the news.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They received intel that Governor Black returned from the wilderness last night. So he must have done an investigation before coming to this conclusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These organisations now face another headache. They don’t know how long the ban will last.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As a big organisation, they can handle the loss for some time period. But not forever. If the ban continues for a longer period, they will face bankruptcy as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These heads have decided to have another meeting with the administration soon. If they go now, they will anger the City Governors.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As locals, they should give some time to Governors. So that they can solve the problems.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>---\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>City administration:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Governor Black has already sent the intel with evidence to the Human Alliance. He shared the news with the governors of the City A and C.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These two cities are neighbouring cities. Unlike other beasts, the Blood Steel Mosquitos can travel from one place of the wilderness to another.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the powerful City A is wary of the Blood Steel Mosquitos. Black thinks that City A will send someone to help.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, if the Blood Steel Mosquitos travels to their city. Then they will bring more danger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Black is more looking forward to the Human Alliance’s response. Earlier, they said that they will assign someone to come.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now that he has given evidence. He thinks that higher ups will give priority to this matter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Governor Chloe and Carl are monitoring the borders from time to time. They are not calm after hearing from Governor Black.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The higher tier beasts are cunning. They can launch attacks while being unprepared. Their actions have indirectly alerted the city guard captains and guards on the patrol.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were looking at the wilderness with extra wariness. First the ban was issued. Second, the governors themselves came in person to monitor the border.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such actions made them afraid. The guards couldn’t help but discuss the beast attack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Either it could be attacked from a single higher tier beast or it could be beast invasions from one particular group of corrupted beasts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In both cases, they have to be careful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>---\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That evening, Jeremy walked out the practice room with content. After coming to this city, he had been restless without having proper training time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now he can put his heart at ease. The problem of the training facility was solved. But he doesn’t know when the beast invasion will occur. He wants to achieve a breakthrough in skills before that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Brother Jeremy!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A familiar voice brought back his thoughts to reality. Then he turned around and saw Nico Rossi who seemed to be coming out of the training room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You ..what happened?\" He asked out of confusion. Because Nico Rossi’s badge was with him. So how did he use the practice room?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nico was through brother Jeremy’s doubts. He smiled happily and recounted things.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A few minutes later,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jeremy’s eyes glinted with understanding. It appears that the training ground has an elder in charge. He was not narrow minded and helped them to practise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jeremy thinks it must be due to the latest incident. Everyone was on edge and wanted to improve their strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he collected his thoughts and started going back towards the Mansion with Nico Rossi. This time he wanted to go back alone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since he knew the route he didn’t want Nico Rossi to waste time. When he said this to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nico Rossi immediately denied. He still holds the view that someone might come to cause troubles to them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jeremy shakes his head. He came to an understanding that it’s difficult to persuade this person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, they came back to the Elder Matteo Mansion. It’s time to part ways. Jeremy returned the badge to Nico Rossi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Brother, we can continue our practice next morning,\" After saying that Nico left the place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Jeremy’s gaze stayed on his back. He doesn’t have options to train with lifeline beasts. That’s why he is honing his sword skills.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But what about Nico Rossi? He is not interested in prying into other people’s lifeline. But if Nico Rossi needs any help in future he will do it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jeremy then walked into the building. He made small talk with the butler. Since he is a guest here. He can’t be isolated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These small talks with Butler give him crucial information.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Elder, do you think beast invasion will occur?\" Jeremy asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old man’s eyes flickered. He doesn’t know why the Master received a guest during such a dire time. But he believes there must be some reason behind it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mister Jeremy, I think it’s better not say anything without Master’s permission. But it’s better for you to prepare for the worst case scenario,\" the old man said in a solemn tone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing that Jeremy nodded to him before going towards his room.\u003C\u002Fp>",1034,"2026-06-05T18:52:55.051Z",1,"novelbin.me","7a4a571198dffb3f4c29092da1e3d2375c43e67abae18f4ac91290bc6d47eff5","striker-independent-beast-tamer-chapter-558","striker-independent-beast-tamer-chapter-556",881,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fstriker-independent-beast-tamer-cover.jpg"]
