Ren stepped squarely in front of the frozen Tamer. He stared into the translucent, wind-aspected crystal forming the man’s chest cavity.
He had to do this completely blind. No second test runs and no luxury of having been successful on a fully formed statue a first time.
A successful time.
But the hesitation vanished. Ren drove his hand forward, plunging the core directly into the statue’s chest.
The ruins reacted instantly. It possessed the rigid, undeniable logic of an ancient mechanism finally receiving the correct gear. A deep, resonant hum vibrated through the floorboards. The dormant runes carved into the walls of the tenth chamber flared to life, shifting from a dull gray to a blinding, active glow.
The ambient mana in the air violently reorganized itself, releasing some of the anchoring onto the newly established focal point in the center of the statue.
Above them, the six hostile signatures registered the massive mana spike. Their crawling descent instantly accelerated into a frantic, scrambling dive.
Beside the wall, Lin stood up.
There was no dramatic flourish, no battle cry. It was the smooth, economic movement of a veteran who had silently evaluated a rapidly deteriorating situation and calculated exactly what needed to be done. She gave the rest of the exhausted guards a brief, clinical glance, assessing their remaining combat readiness in a fraction of a second.
Then, she walked forward. She planted herself squarely at the base of the narrow stairwell, her posture completely relaxed but tightly coiled.
"I’m going to buy some time," she said softly.
Ren didn’t look up. He drew deeply on his shattered reserves and triggered his fusion, pushing his connection with his beasts to their absolute maximum threshold. A dense aura of power erupted around him. Without wasting a millisecond, he directed the flood of purifying energy straight into Sirius’s chest, forcing the flow aggressively upward toward the head.
The triage was brutal, but the logic was undeniable. If he ran out of time, or if his mana completely failed him before the process was finished, unfinished limbs could be dealt with later. Arms and legs lost could have future solutions. They were gruesome, far-from-ideal solutions, amputation and later localized severing to push healing, but they were survivable.
Internal organs, however, did not have workarounds. An incomplete central mana network, an open or unfinished brain, those were fatal.
If he had to choose what to discard, the core and the mind had to be flawless... The extremities would just have to suffer.
The faint grinding, skittering noise of the first six horrors squeezing into the staircase echoed into the chamber already thanks to his extremely sensitive hearing. It was a frantic, desperate sound that scraped directly against Ren’s expanded perception, demanding his attention even as he poured his entire soul into saving the statue of his father in law.
He shut the noise out... He went to work.
Ren’s success or failure wasn’t a matter of technique.
The technique was flawless. The magical mapping came to him faster than the last time. It was the undeniable proof of muscle memory; the kind of deeply ingrained practice that settles into a tamer’s bones and refuses to fade, no matter how much time passes between attempts.
The intricate, frozen pathways of Sirius’s crystallized body opened up under Ren’s perception. The Tiger and Serpent systems felt intimately familiar, even in this new, petrified format. When Ren initiated the sequence, the magic responded with the smooth, frictionless glide of a skill executed to absolute perfection.


Everything, the brain, the lungs, the heart, the intricate webbing of arteries and nerves, had to transform simultaneously as a single, cohesive unit. Maintaining the complex structure required for that, while the sheer scale of the spell redlined his brain’s processing power, was the insurmountable gap between what he could do and what he needed to do right now.
