New law of Beast Taming

Ashley Tunner felt rage fill his body as soon as the foolish and ignorant Lady Yoko raised her hand to kill the Chimera beast. She was so cruel and unjust that looking at her hurt the man's eyes.

Yoko Tsurugi was promising to kill the Chimera. The ultimate form of the beast was being threatened by a small child like her. Ashley needed to do something.

"I know what you are thinking in your mind. The chimera almost killed you and all your students but you still want it to be free. That is what we call the allure of the beast. You have been enchanted by them."

Lady Tsurugi sounded certain about her claim but Ashely knew that was not true.

He? Ensraled by a beast's charm? As if.

Beasts had always been fascinating to him and he had always held a soft spot for them. Their power and their magnificence were something that could not be denied by humans.

And Ashely just wanted to love and honor that power he was seeing in front of his eyes.

"See, completely gone and enslaved by the charms of a beast. In this case, we do not need to delay the execution. May you find peace in your next life."

The beast died in a second when Amane tightened her bonds on his body. No pain or agony was inflicted on the animal.

That was the only mercy Amane could show the deformed beast.

"N-No! How could you! That was a living and breathing being. It deserved to live a happy and long life as well."

Ashley cried out in anger as he watched the chimera die in front of his eyes. It felt as if something great was being cut off in front of his eyes.

He tried to save the dying chimera but it was of no use. The body of the beast disappeared into a flash of light.

"A chimera would never be 'happy' or even 'satisfied' in its life. Its instincts would cause it massive pain as they reject its very existence. It is a small mercy to kill them and put their bodies to rest. That was, they do not have to feel the pain as much."

Amelia quickly explained but she knew that the professor was beyond help. Only his students listened carefully.

Finally, Charlie made her presence known in the clearing and the overall tone of the meeting shifted.

"What are you all standing around so grimly for? The Chimera was bound to die sooner or later for having killed people. This way, it was a painless affair for the beast. But let us close this chapter of the story. Yoko, come with me. We got some urgent news for you."

Once Lady Suzuki had taken a stand, no one was foolish enough to contradict her words. No one wanted to face her and the wrath of the divine guild backing her up.

Even the prideful Ashely Tunner could not hope to stand against her. Even if he had hundreds of followers, the divine guild had more.

He had to back down and plan for his revenge in secret.

Charlie noticed this expression on Ashely Tunner's face and gestured to it. Amane just shook her head in a way that said 'leave it be' and Charlie decided to drop the topic.

Amane took a last look at the gathering behind her. Most of the students seemed to be in awe of her. But just as many were terrified.

One had even died during this confrontation, which scared all those children beyond measure.

"Remember, this profession is not as easy as it looks at first glance. There is a lot you will need to sacrifice and just as many things you will need to learn. I hope you have a pleasant journey ahead of you."

Ashley looked on with an angry expression as his students fell more and more into Yoko Tsurugi's traps. Their expression of admiration was a jab to Ashely's mood.

"You all can leave now. If you cannot respect my ideals, then I do not want you as my students. I have a lot of students who apply for this opportunity so I do not need to choose you people specifically."

Ashley's words were clear - you were either in Lady Tsurugi's team or in his. He did not need someone who climbed on both boats.

"M-Master Tunner, of course, we are your students. We respect you and your decisions a lot. We want to learn more from you."

One of the students nervously admitted this. He had spent a lot to be able to become Ashely's student and he could not afford to go back now.

He needed this certificate to be able to apply for jobs.

Many students were in the same situation. They had spent thousands of dollars to be here and now they needed to maintain this relationship if they wanted to get a decent job.

In his mind, Ashley Tunner knew all this. He knew why his students had suddenly become kind to him and why they were behaving like he was the only one they wanted.

But his pride would not let it admit to him. He was the right one here and he would not back down.

"You all, we have one mission now. We need to let the world know what kind of cruel lady Yoko Tsurugi is and tarnish her reputation. Those who help me out will get special credit for this."

It was dangerous for Ashely Tunner to speak in such a manner but he could not help himself. He needed to take this arrogant and ignorant woman down at all costs.

His students looked at each other with terrified expressions. They knew that their opponent was not only the Tsurugi house but also the divine guild.

'I-I am sure Lady Yoko would understand our reasonings. And so will the divine leader. They are good people, who will not let us suffer. So, it would be alright if we say something against them, right?'

The students thought and got ready to help their professor out.

But little did they know that their 'ideal' image of these two figures could not be more incorrect.

........

"Do you want me to deal with Ashely Tunner? He will surely become a thorn in your side sooner or later. It is no trouble removing him now."

Charlie offered Amane this and Amane had to say that it was a tempting offer. It would help her out a lot if Ashely Tunner was dead.

But then again, Amane did not want to cause pain and fear in people. It would hinder her plans.

"No, let him be. I do not mind letting him live if he keeps his head down and does not cause trouble. Moreover, I am interested in what brought you here. I am sure it must be something big."

Amane was certain about this because Charlie had disregarded their plan to meet later and decided to head into the main hall quite early.

She had even interfered with Amane's plan to teach Ashely Tunner a lesson and whisked her away.

"Oh, so now I need a reason to come and see you? Why if I did not have any? What if I just wanted to meet you one more time and bask in your presence?"

Charlie teased and Amane's expression turned into a blank but happy smile.

"In that case, there is no need for both of us to interact anymore. Let us break this friendship apart and go our separate ways."

Amane threatened and Charlie instantly had a panicked expression on her face. Stay updated through freewebnovel

"No wait. I did have an urgent reason to come and see you. Our case had a new entry just a few hours ago. There was another kill that happened and we are heading toward the scene. Do you want to accompany us?"

It did not surprise Amane much that she had been asked to come along this time. The freshest evidence of a beast attack was when it had just happened.

Amane was sure she would be able to find a lot of evidence on the scene.

"Alright, let us go then. I am sure we will be able to solve this case soon."

Amane just had a feeling this new case location would turn out to be important. Important clues were waiting for them to uncover.

Charlie had a satisfied expression on her face once she realized that she had changed the topic of this conversation successfully.

They both got into the car where Sean was waiting for them already. The teen did not say anything, just handed over the papers to Amane so that she could look them over.

There was no such evidence or anything on this case yet. This was also the investigation team's first visit to this place.

But as soon as Amane got down from the car, she could feel a terrified human presence in the vicinity. They finally had a witness for this case.
