Weakest Beast Tamer Gets All SSS Dragons novel Chapter 603

Capítulo 603: Chapter 603 – Taming the Swarm – 18 – End – Part 2

Selphira screamed, but not only from pain. Her connection to her beast and ice control was abruptly interrupted.

Julius also collapsed, the effort of maintaining so many mineral formations had drained his mana to the limit. His fusion was canceled, his body trembled as he tried to stand, but his legs refused to respond.

Below, Ren rose free. The tendrils of corrupted energy moved around him like hungry serpents, and his violet eyes fixed once more on the two defenseless figures on the wall.

But there was something different now. The predatory calculation was still there, but underneath it, something else flickered. Pain? Recognition? It was impossible to tell.

He raised his hand again, power gathering around his fingers like dark lightning preparing to strike.

Zhao, who had been coordinating the retreat before hearing the prison explosion, saw what was happening and dove downward, his wings forced to their maximum as he tried to close the distance between himself and his fallen companions. He fused to the maximum extent possible, pushing his body beyond its limits.

But even with his speed enhanced by complete fusion, it was obvious he wouldn’t arrive in time.

Selphira, with the gaping hole in her shoulder bleeding freely, clenched her teeth until her jaw creaked. Refusing to give up, refusing to heal herself, and refusing to let the child she had promised to protect become the monster that would destroy everything they loved.

She forced a final fusion with her beasts. A complete fusion that she knew would absorb the last vestige of her remaining energy and leave her helpless, but she was desperate.

Her hair turned white as fresh snow and her eyes became pools of deep blue that reflected centuries of accumulated power and wisdom.

With the last reserves of her power, she created… not solid ice. But a single drop of water, imbued with all the purifying energy she had left.

It was her final attack. Her last hope.

The drop condensed slowly, every molecule charged with intent. It was such a simple thing, but it contained everything she had learned about purification, about healing, about fighting corruption in all its forms.

Yet she knew it wouldn’t be enough. Ren was too strong now, too corrupted. The drop wouldn’t reach him before a frontal attack from the boy could disintegrate it. The corrupted energy surrounding him would simply consume her purification attempt like darkness swallowing a small candle flame.

Unless she put herself in front and…

It was then that an intense light appeared in the northern sky.

Ren, with his supernaturally sharpened senses, diverted his attention for a fraction of a second to observe the strange phenomenon. His head tilted slightly, a predator momentarily distracted by unexpected movement.

The light disappeared immediately, as if it had been only an illusion.

Selphira didn’t waste the chance. She launched her purifying water drop with all the speed and precision that centuries of combat had taught her. Every muscle memory, every instinct honed through countless battles, guided the projectile’s path.

The drop cut through the air like a liquid bullet, its trajectory perfect, its intention pure. It left a trail of crystalline mist in its wake, the very air seeming to clarify in its passage.

And then the light reappeared.

Not in the sky this time, but directly behind the water drop that had reached just in front of Ren’s face, amplifying its brightness until it became a miniature star that exploded upon touching the corruption.

The intensity was blinding. The light reflected off the drop’s particles and multiplied exponentially, creating an explosion of purity that swept the corruption from his face like a shockwave of clarity. For a moment, the dark energy that had wrapped around him like living armor simply evaporated.

For an instant, it revealed the face of the ordinary young man he had been before absorbing all that alien energy.
