Weakest Beast Tamer Gets All SSS Dragons novel Chapter 1075

Chapter 1075: Chapter 1075 - Taming the Wall - 10th Chamber - Flow Change

The interior space held the silence of something that had been running constantly and was starting to understand it was about to stop.

Selthia stood still for a moment and then began accumulating power.

The interior space responded, the purple at the margins moving toward the center with the momentum of energy that had the full field behind it.

Then the field stopped accumulating to go in her direction and continued toward the center with her input; toward her feet, in fact, in the way that happened when a system designed to amplify started pushing from the wrong end.

The purple that should have kept expanding around had stopped.

A few seconds passed...

Then it even started retreating, not fast, but in the wrong direction for Selthia, and the more power she accumulated for the attack she was building the faster it retreated, as if the system that should have been amplifying her with excess to spare was now running in reverse at her own expense.

Selthia let the accumulated power drop when she saw that.

She stood still for a moment. Then she smiled, and this one was different from the earlier ones, smaller, it was the smile of someone who had just realized she had lost in a way that, in retrospect, had a certain elegance.

Outside, Liora had been a volcano for a while.

Mayo didn’t use those exact words but used something functionally equivalent, because Mayo had the specific ability to find the funny angle in any situation including this one, which was that her beast was carrying Liora while Liora sent every remaining piece of spirit fire she had after the fusion toward one section of the tenth chamber’s ceiling, and the heat this produced was the kind of heat Mayo would have preferred to experience with considerably more distance between herself and the source.

"Could your love display be any more intense?" Mayo said.

"Shut up." Liora didn’t take her eyes off the point Ren had asked her to attack before entering the system, the section where the runes were densest and the overlaid ones could be erased if the correct type of energy arrived with enough sustained concentration.

Spirit fire was exactly that type of energy because it acted on the ethereal mana component before the physical material, and the runes were mana even when written in stone.

"It just looks more like marital worry and anger than technique," Mayo said. "Although... those might be the same thing right now."

"Mayo. Shut. Up!"

The spirit fire burned several degrees hotter.

Hikari landed beside them with the Firefly shining at half intensity, her way of communicating that everything was in order without saying so.

"The first nine chambers’ runes are nearly all gone," she said. "Shizu’s group is on the false ones breaking the walls. Umi’s group has Ren covered below and his readings are normal." A pause. "The crystal started gaining the first few millimeters of purification."

Liora didn’t respond, but the fire leaving her body stabilized and concentrated into a more efficient point in a way that had less to do with the report and more to do with the specific relief of hearing it.

Mayo watched the heat ripple around her in a more focused direction away from her general location and decided the next witticism could wait.
