Weakest Beast Tamer Gets All SSS Dragons novel Chapter 1323

Chapter 1323: Chapter 1323 - Taming the Old World - Paradoxical Choice

They won’t be happy about this...

He was particularly concerned about Liora. The fiery sniper was currently nursing a quiet, subtle foul mood. While she tried to hide it, Ren knew her well enough to spot the irritation brewing ever since the northern squad returned.

Luna was currently wearing the Shadow Ring her father had passed down, while Larissa sported the Northern Light Ring granted by Selphira. Liora had been left empty-handed.

Ren glanced down at the four ancient bands resting in his palm, his eyes lingering on the Fire Ring.

Earlier tests with the shadow ones had confirmed that wearing two rings of the exact same element did not stack their respective multipliers. Consequently, he would not actually need any of the duplicate Yino artifacts to construct the final seven-element array. He did need the primary Fire Ring, as the thermal manipulation was helpful for tempering the metallic shell of the containment dome. However, until he actually marched back here to the vault to wake his mushroom, he could easily lend the artifact to Liora.

When Mooshito finally woke up, Ren might be forced to feed the little symbiote a few rings to boost its structural weaving capacity anyway, perhaps offering four instead of the promised seven. In the meantime, handing the fire artifact over would appease the fire sniper, balance the scales between the three young women, and neatly bypass a highly uncomfortable conversation.

It was a minor logistical victory, yet he would gladly take one less problem on his plate.

With his operational sequence locked in, Ren decided to rip the bandage off in one go and discuss the grim reality with the rest of the Vanguard immediately.

There was no time to spare. He summoned the core command staff to the main castle room. Selphira, Julius, Arturo, Victor, Sirius, his friends, the three girls gathered around him not even wanting to sit at the big table, and every key leader who had returned from the northern front with a clear head.

Ren laid the entire ominous picture out bare... He detailed the structural limit of the subterranean dome, the terrifying silence of the purple dragon as it pooled energy for a single fast breach, and the shrinking fifty-hour plus clock they had left to intervene. He finished by outlining the only viable solution: dismantling the active lock and forging a brand-new, seven-pointed array to permanently seal the shadow leak and make a stronger wall.
