The Absolute beast Tamer

Eastern Region, Lamira City,

Howler Town

First high school

Teacher: Everyone, open your books to page 67. Today we will review the cataclysmic event that caused the widespread mutation, which in turn started the golden age of beast taming...

In the last row of this class sat a petrified student with a pale face, completely frozen, and that would be me.

Just a minute ago I was slaving away at my black company that, after much thinking, does not pay for any overtime but absolutely demanded it.

I was pulling 72 hours straight staring at my computer screen when suddenly everything turned dark, and I found myself in this classroom listening to a fantasy-like lecture.

Then a mind-breaking pain attacked me, and many foreign memories flooded in; the pain started to subside after a while, and everything became clearer.

To my surprise, this is not Earth, and I seem to have reincarnated into a bizarre new world in the body of a 16-year-old named Alan Ortox, who happened to have the same name as mine.

This world is called the blue gaian and 2000 years ago a catacalism happend that changed everything, a mystrious type of enrgy called Ena was introduced to this world causing a wide spread mutation in animals and plants creating many bizzar new species every single organism changed and that included us humans as we gaind the applity to harness ena transforming us from mere mortals to super humens but the tiping of the pyramid was sudden and even with ena cultivators being born humanity could not stope the mutated beasts invasion, falling from the top of the pyramid as an apex predator of this world to a prey at lowest leveles of spectrom, 90 percent of the humen population were wiped out that was when someone discoverd that he could tame these beasts and use them to fight and grow stronger at a speed that seemed impossiple for any ena cultivatior saving what was left of humanity and curving a small pice of land as a sanqutary for the suvivers, those heros where called beast tamers and thats how this honoroble profisson was born.

Digesting these pieces of information, fear grabbed my heart at the same time a crazy feeling of excitement took over me.

This world is perilous, and to survive in this world, I need to get stronger; an intense desire for power took place inside of me, something I never imagined myself ever feeling.The class ended while I was adapting to this new reality when suddenly someone tapped my shoulder.

Drack: Hey Alan, You look somewhat pale. Are you that nervous about the upcoming awakening ceremony? Pulling me out of my thoughts, my deskmate asked

Alan: Oh, Drack. I am okay, just a little bit excited.

Drack: You should rest well today; we will need to be at 100% tomorrow for the awakening ceremony, and maybe we will awaken a good talent and instantly become winners in life.

With stars in his eyes, Drack, who happened to be a good friend of the former Alan, advised.

The awakening ceremony is the event that every 16-year-old looks for the most. It is the day they awaken as a beast tamer and get to know what their talent is, as every beast tamer has one, and talent could be simple, such as super strength, fire manipulation, or a bizarre type that is a literal cheat, so I can see why he is excited.

Alan: See you tomorrow.

Drack: See ya.

The school ended, and I headed home on this familiar yet new street, thinking about this new world and how did I come here? What happened to the original Alan? As I can see from his memories, he had no enemies and was always a straight-A student, so what happened?

Just as I was going through the memories, I froze as I remembered that Alan has a family, his mother and little sister.

Will they notice something off about me the moment we meet? I was strangely excited, as I was an orphan on Earth, and there was no one who would cry and mourn my death there.

The idea that I could have a family excited and terrified me at the same time.

I took the bus to the edge of town to a small, rundown apartment building, apartment number 302.

I stood at the door; after calming my nerves, I opened the door when a small bundle of cuteness came screaming.

Lily: Big Brother is home; hug, hug, hug.

She jumped into my arms, and I felt a warmth that I have always longed for

.Alan: Hello, baby. How was your day?

Lily: It was good. We had fun in Ms. Clare's class today. We learned about one of the slowest beasts in the book, the armored turtle. We even raced in our costumes...

Lily started talking about her day at the daycare center. She is my little sister, now a very cute and active child whose eyes are full of life.

Listening to this angel talking, I looked around the apartment. It was small but clean and tidy, full of warmth.

My mother is not here yet, as I remembered that she worked in a small clinic in the city and does not finish work until 6 pm.

Alan: Baby, are you hungry?

Lily: A little, but I will eat my snack until Mom comes back.

Alan: No, baby, you don't need to wait; I will cook dinner tonight.

Lily: Huh, big brother is going to cook?

Alan: Yes, baby, go play in your room, and I will call you when dinner is ready.

Lily: OK,

I found my way to the small kitchen and started preparing dinner.

As it happens, I am an excellent cook.

One of the perks of being a loner is that I cook almost every day, and that makes my cooking heavenly delicious.

After a while, a heavenly, delicious aroma started wafting from the kitchen, filling the apartment.

Little Lily, who was in her room, suddenly smelled a very delicious scent.

So she came running to the kitchen door. She stood there, a little bit dumbfounded, with drool trickling down her small mouth.

She was clearly hungry, and she was also very, very, very cute. Alan put down his cooking gloves and went to the door.

He crouched down and looked at his new, lovely sister. Alan said, "Honey, why don't you prepare the table? We will eat in 5 minutes." He patted her head, and then Lily responded. She said, "Yes, big brother. Lily will prepare the table. Please hurry up and finish cooking."

Just as Lily started to prepare the table, the front door suddenly opened, and a very beautiful lady with long, snow-white hair and gentle eyes entered. She looked to be in her late 20s. The lady took down her shoes and entered the apartment, suddenly smelling the delicious aroma. She went to the kitchen and just stood at the door.

She was my new mother. Her name is Ariana Ortox. She looked very beautiful, but you can see a slight fatigue under her eyes—clearly from overworking herself to take care of me and my little sister.

Ariana said, "Wow! What an unusual day we have. It seems that we will have a feast that is made by my little prince. How was your day at school?"

Looking at her, I tried to respond as calmly as possible.

"Thanks, Mom. There is nothing unusual about it. I knew that you would be tired when you came home, so I thought of preparing the dinner. And school was alright, you know, as usual." "Normal is the best," Ariana responded. Then, she entered the kitchen and started helping me finish preparing the dinner.

After we all sat down and started eating, Ariana asked Alan, "How is your preparation for tomorrow's ceremony? You will be awakening. The awakening ceremony is the most important in one's life, but I don't want you to be so tense. Just relax and go through the motion. You are already a very good student, and I know that you will have a bright future."

Alan responded, "Don't worry about me, Mom. I am okay." "Or did I freak you out because I made dinner?"

Ariana laughed.

"Yeah, a little," she responded. Meanwhile, little Lily was digging and eating, making a mess out of her little mouth, not even listening to the conversation.

After dinner ended, I headed back to my room and lay on my bed, trying to digest every single new piece of information that entered my mind today, trying to accept this new reality and this precious family that I need to protect now. This world is a world where the strong can survive and the weak may perish. And, to protect this new family of mine and to live up to my second life to the fullest, I will absolutely need power and need to get stronger.
