The Anti-Hero
Chapter 9: [Tamer]
After killing several C rank monsters, Van brought the corpses of monsters back to the camp
Van takes the monster and drags it as it approaches the camp
Van dragged the monsters for a few minutes and finally arrived at the camp
Arriving at the encampment, the [Barrier Master] was surprised to see the monster that Van was under
"C rank monsters?!! A 4th year student could kill a C rank?!!" said [Barrier Master] in surprise
"Only C rank, it's very easy" Van said flatly then threw C rank monsters at E and D rank students
The E and D rank students were shocked to see the C rank monsters before them
They grabbed an ordinary knife and tried to skin the monsters
But the blade was instantly broken when the students stabbed the monster with knives
Van sighed and grabbed the nearest knife from him 'This is why weak people don't need to be heroes'
Van tore through the monster's skin easily and began to separate the monster's skin from its flesh
Van then handed the monster meat that had been separated from his skin to the students
The students swiftly lit the fire with the primitive method of rubbing the stone to produce the fire
After their efforts of a dozen minutes, the students finally managed to light a fire
The students pierced the monster meat with wooden twigs and began to hang the monster meat over the fire
As the students were busy keeping the fire from extinguishing, Rover came up with some goblins
[Barrier Master] who saw Rover carrying a goblin instantly patted his forehead with his hand
"Gosh Rover, didn't you study in class during the first to third years? Goblin meat is not edible! His flesh and blood were poisonous and extremely dirty" [Barrier Master] said furiously
The rover who heard [Barrier Master]'s words felt shocked and instantly threw away the corpse of the goblin
Rover then grabbed a basket of red fruits and handed them to the [Barrier Master]
[Barrier Master] grabbed the fruits handed over by Rover and looked at them carefully
[Barrier Master] immediately threw the fruit and other fruits in the basket
"Rover, it's a poisonous fruit! His name is [Red Blind Fruit]! What did you learn in class?!!!" said [Barrier Master]
"Huh?! It was a Strawberry! Since when did it become a poisonous fruit?" rebut Rover
"Son! The difference between Strawberry and [Red Blind Fruit] is very different! Strawberries have small spots while [Red Blind Fruit] has larger spots!" said [Barrier Master]
"Listen to me Rover! Being a hero does not mean protecting the public and fighting criminals in the city alone! But you also need to fight monsters in the wild so you need to learn to survive in the wild" explained [Barrier Master]
"Whispering, being a hero is enough to only capitalize on a strong [Skill]. That's how the world works" Rover said
"He-" said [Barrier Master] but his name was cut off
"Excuse me, but the meat is cooked.... Can we eat?" ask one of the D students
"Yes, let's eat" said [Barrier Master]
The van lying on top of the tree also came down the tree and walked over
Van grabbed a piece of meat and ate it "It feels a little bland" Van muttered
As for the Rover still eating the food while staring at the [Barrier Master] with an annoyed look
...30 Minutes Later...
The van and the others finally finished eating and prepared to go to sleep
But before going to sleep, the [Barrier Master] stared at all the students firmly
"It's the night, the time when some monsters are active and some are asleep. So we will do the night watch in turn" said [Barrier Master]
The vigil schedule was divided and Van got a turn at 3am
The no-nonsense van rushed towards his tent and went straight to sleep ignoring his tentmate who was looking at him with amazed eyes
Van closed his eyes but his mind was still conscious while feeling Bruce's vision
Through Bruce's vision, Van sees Bruce fighting a red dragon

But Bruce was cornered because [Fire Dragon] did not give Bruce the opportunity to approach him
Right now, the [Fire Dragon] was spitting out his [Fire Breath] towards Bruce
Bruce instantly avoided [Fire Breath] by jumping to the side
When he landed successfully, Van's voice suddenly sounded in Bruce's mind
"Bruce, what are you doing?
You are one of my masterpieces...
My masterpiece is always perfect and will not die....
All you're doing is tarnishing my crown"
Van's arrogant voice rang out in Bruce's mind
Van's voice frightened Bruce
Bruce forcefully jumped onto the [Fire Breath] that was spouted by the [Fire Dragon]
Bruce's body immediately felt like it was melting but did not feel the slightest pain
When he managed to pass through [Fire Breath], Bruce's body only left the skeleton part
But greetings for a second, Bruce's body regenerated as before even the clothes He was wearing regenerated
Bruce finally managed to touch one of the scales of the [Fire Dragon] and activated [Tamer]
After which, the figure of the [Fire Dragon] became obedient to Bruce
Bruce who had been affected by Van's subordinate effect did not feel tired at all
Bruce continued his journey into the forest deeper
Van closed his eyes to rest his mind
While asleep, Van felt someone pat him and Van immediately opened his eyes
"Van, now it's your turn to stand guard" said [Barrier Master]
Van then got up and nodded to the [Barrier Master]
The van walked out of the tent and sat in front of the still burning bonfire
Van once again examined Bruce and saw Bruce had conquered 5 S rank beasts including [Fire Dragon]
the other 4 animals were [Fire Phoenix], [Titan Phyton], [Nine-Tailed Fox], and [White Tiger]
