Strongest Hammer God novel Chapter 191

Kyle returned to Gelden and jumped onto the roof of the building beside the tower.

"Hey, lady!" Kyle shouted. "The bandits are dealt with!"

Her wolf threw Kyle an annoyed glance before laying its head down again while the Beast Tamer looked at Kyle over the railing.

"How many were there? Where were they? How strong were they?" she asked evenly.

"Like six or seven. I think six," Kyle said. "One guy was standing by the road, while the others were south a bit further away. As for their strength, not entirely sure. They kinda just exploded when I hit them."

The Beast Tamer furrowed her brows as she looked at Kyle.

"That is your battle report?" she asked.

"Eh, I guess?" Kyle answered, scratching the back of his head. "I'm not a soldier, you know. I'm just a random Fighter from a random Fighter Guild. I have no idea how to make a proper battle report. Do I have to do that? I thought I just needed to tell you that the mission is accomplished or something."

The Beast Tamer took a deep breath.

"Did you find anything in their camp?" she asked.

"Oh yeah, a bunch of stuff. Crates, food, tents," Kyle said. "Oh, and two women with a baby! Seems like they were kidnapped or something."

"Where are they?" the Beast Tamer asked.

"My partner is escorting them back. They don't wanna be carried. Give it a couple of hours."

The Beast Tamer looked at Kyle for a bit longer.

"Did you kill all of them?" she asked.

"My partner killed one, and I dealt with the remainder," Kyle answered.

The Beast Tamer looked at Kyle some more.

'Why does she just keep looking at me without saying anything? Does she think she's dramatic or something?' Kyle thought.

"How is your partner holding up?" she asked, the edge in her voice gone.

"Fine, I guess. Was her first time killing somebody, but she'll get used to it," Kyle said.

The Beast Tamer looked into the distance.

"If only it were that easy," she whispered under her breath.

"What?" Kyle shouted, barely having heard a couple of words.

"Go back to your Guild. Your mission is done," she said.

"Sure thing!" Kyle said, almost saying 'Boss'.

Kyle jumped down from the building.

"You would benefit from entering the army or a proper Mercenary Guild," the Beast Tamer said before Kyle left.

"Huh? Why?" Kyle asked.

"They have more resources, and their pay is much higher. Not many people are cut out for this kind of life, but you seem to have no issues with that," she commented.

"Not sure what you mean with that, but okay!" Kyle said. "Maybe sometime."

"Your relationship with human life is a gift and a curse," the Beast Tamer said.

Kyle blinked a couple of times.

'What's with all of these deep comments? Didn't you literally just tell me to get back, and now you keep me here by talking? Make up your mind!'

"Okay, thanks. Gotta go! Nice meeting you!" Kyle shouted as he ran out of the village.

The Beast Tamer watched as Kyle retreated and took a deep breath.

He left Gelden and reached Starkhold soon after.

'Gotta wait for the mission to be marked as complete,' Kyle thought as he entered the cafeteria.
