Weakest Beast Tamer Gets All SSS Dragons novel Chapter 205

"Done," Ren declared with satisfaction, stepping back to admire his handiwork. "Now I just need to cultivate with the correctly processed crystals."

Without wasting a moment, Ren took one of the special crystals he had prepared. Unlike normal crystals, these had a distinctive internal glow, as if they contained liquid light.

"Are you going to absorb it now?" Taro asked with surprise. "Shouldn’t you rest first? You already took that large crystal for your mushroom this morning, and we spent a good while at considerable depth."

"I don’t want to lose time," Ren responded, his fingers caressing the crystal’s surface. "Every day that passes without advancing the cultivation is a day wasted."

Without further preamble, he began the absorption process, closing his eyes while the crystal gradually dissolved and was absorbed into his body. The mushrooms in his hair pulsed with renewed intensity, and for a moment, they all could see lines of light forming under his skin, following a specific rhythmic pattern for the hydra.

When the crystal completely disappeared, Ren opened his eyes. For an instant, it seemed a flash of light gleamed in them before fading away, leaving behind a momentary afterimage.

"How do you feel?" Taro asked, leaning forward with concern.

"Good," Ren responded with a small smile. "The crystal is small for what I’m used to and had exactly the type of energy I needed. The hydra is responding positively."

"How long will you need to maintain this one?" Liu asked.

"One hundred days as always," Ren responded without hesitation. "With the proper crystals and maintaining the correct pattern, any beast Bronze 2 or lower should evolve completely by then."

Liu shook his head with both disbelief and admiration while looking at his eccentric roommate.

"I never thought I’d say this," he murmured, "but I’m genuinely curious to see what you’ll do with that head tomorrow."

Ren simply smiled.

The next morning...

"Skip the exercises? Again?" Lin arched an eyebrow, her arms crossed as she observed Ren with a skeptical expression.

"Just today," Ren explained, his mushrooms pulsing with what he hoped was a calm and persuasive rhythm. "I need time to prepare the cultivation materials for Taro and get some weapons for our outing with Zhao."

"Weapons?" Lin studied him for a moment... Finally, to Ren’s surprise, she nodded.

"Fine I wanna see what kind of weapons you’ll prepare... But this afternoon you’ll do double exercise."

As she walked away, Ren couldn’t help wondering if Lin was softening since he gave her the potion. For an instant, he imagined a smiling and understanding Lin, forgiving mistakes in postures and reducing the intensity of training sessions.

He violently shook his head to dispel that absurd image.

No, Lin surely hadn’t become softer. She was probably just accumulating reasons to torture him even more later. Getting his hopes up would be a mistake.

With the first hour free, Ren headed first to the exchange storehouse. Jessy was organizing some bottles when she saw him enter.
