Weakest Beast Tamer Gets All SSS Dragons novel Chapter 922

Chapter 922: Chapter 922 - Taming the Crystal Hearts - 6

The transformation left Selphira operating in a qualitatively different state from what she’d been moments before.

Not just stronger or faster. But fundamentally changed in how she interacted with the world. Like viewing reality through lens that revealed layers normally hidden.

And the first thought she processed with new sharpened clarity fusion provided was the need to separate Orion from Victor immediately.

Couldn’t attack indiscriminately when her new primary objective was rescue rather than simply elimination. Needed enough precision not to compromise the safety of who she tried saving.

Balance between enough force to overcome any defense Orion could deploy and enough control not to cause collateral damage defeating the intervention’s purpose.

So Selphira executed an ultra-fast technique she’d perfected specifically for this situation type.

The ice spear launched forward not as a thrown object but as an extension of her will physically manifested. A trajectory calculated to cover the shortest route to Victor’s closer safe distance while striking Orion directly with force that should cut him in half or at least force him to drop the hostage.

It was an attack that was strong and concentrated but simultaneously precise.

The spear moved at speeds making it appear to teleport rather than travel. No visible arc, no warning whistle... Just instantaneous relocation from point A to point B with devastating force channeled through every centimeter of its length.

An attack practically instantaneous to the point of not giving time to react. Most tamers would be dead before nerve impulses could carry any signals from eyes to brain. Before the conscious mind could process the threat and formulate a response.

But Orion stopped it.

A barrier materialized between the spear and his position with an speed almost impossible seeming to demonstrate it had been active but invisible or that Orion had anticipated exactly this approach type.

Preparation suggesting he’d studied Selphira sufficiently to predict and deploy responses even at speed most would find overwhelming.

And it wasn’t an ordinary barrier Selphira could penetrate through elemental superiority or fracture through pure momentum.

It was a light manifestation glowing with intensity hurting the eyes when focused directly. Purity contrasting dramatically with the purple lines running through its structure like veins transporting corruption contaminating what otherwise would’ve been an element associated with healing and benevolent protection.

The light was wrong... Beautiful but diseased.

Watching it was like watching a sunset through toxic clouds that turned natural colors into something nauseating. Perversion of something meant to be pure transformed into a mockery of its own nature.

And the purple veins pulsed. Throbbed like living tissue. Pumped corrupted energy through the crystalline structure in a rhythm suggesting a heartbeat.

A wrong heartbeat...

Arhythmic and stuttering, but undeniably alive in a way that made her recoil instinctively.

And Selphira had recognized the composition immediately, her mind processing implications with speed her fusion amplified.

That was the crystal that had belonged to Luna’s mother. Lykea’s Heart. The artifact she’d left behind when the ruins claimed her. Object carrying last fragments of a happy and loved woman.

Luna’s inheritance. The last thing connecting her to the family she’d lost.

And it was working... She could feel rage building despite knowing manipulation for what it was. Could feel control slipping despite decades of discipline teaching her better. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖
