Weakest Beast Tamer Gets All SSS Dragons novel Chapter 210

The day had finally arrived.

Ren rose before dawn, his mushrooms pulsing with anticipation while he packed the last supplies in his specially compartmentalized bag. The morning air was crisp, carrying the earthy scent of dew-dampened soil through the open window.

The final gathering exam with Zhao wasn’t just an academic test for him; it represented a unique opportunity to obtain more materials for his projects.

With luck, this time he could acquire many more tentacles.

Isaac had kept his word. The weapons were ready on time, each piece crafted with a precision that exceeded even Ren’s expectations.

The spear was a masterpiece of artisanal engineering. Its tip, formed from the treated material, gleamed with a tone between amber and steel. The white bow, crafted from cartilaginous marine beast bone, tensed perfectly with the black Sarracenia string, the entire weapon balanced and responsive in his hands.

When he said goodbye to Isaac after collecting them, the few students who crossed his path looked at him with expressions ranging from mockery to a kind of condescending understanding.

"Look at the mushroom boy," he heard one mutter. "Needs traditional weapons to compensate."

"I’ve heard rumors he became a double tamer," commented another, his voice laden with skepticism. "But if that were true, why would he still have those mushrooms on his head and carry primitive weapons?"

Ren simply continued on his way, ignoring the comments. Unlike many of the rich or noble students at this school, he didn’t measure his worth by others’ opinions. Each decision, each action, had a specific purpose in his plans.

Upon reaching the meeting point where the caravan waited, Ren found Min and Taro already prepared, their bags packed and their expressions mixing excitement with nervousness.

"Ren," Min called to him, pointing toward a group of adults. "Lin is coming with us this time, we are so done..."

"Not just her," Taro added in a low voice. "Wei, Yang, and several more professors. There’s even new people who seem to work for the castle."

Ren studied the scene. Indeed, the group’s composition was radically different from the previous expedition. The presence of so many instructors and guards suggested an unusual level of caution.

"I guess it’s normal," he commented, adjusting his weapons. "There was an attack last time. They’re probably taking additional measures to protect the princess."

"They’re not just looking after me," Larissa’s voice sounded right behind him.

Ren turned to find not only Larissa, but the entire group of noble cousins with their companions. The twelve girls, now much more openly united than before, formed a semicircle around him.

"Interesting choice of equipment," Luna commented, gesturing toward the spear and bow. "Not what I would expect from someone with your... knowledge."

"I think the perception of weapons is mistaken... they’re tools and each one has its purpose," Ren responded simply.

"We’re eager to accompany you in the gathering," Liora added with a small smile. "We want to know how it will be different from when we’re in the depths."

Ren nodded, observing how the rest of the students organized themselves into groups. Unlike the last expedition, the atmosphere was completely different. Klein and Jin remained apart with their group reduced from 15 to only 9 people, now avoiding any direct confrontation with Ren. Explore more at freewebnovel

It was surprising how the dynamics had changed. The usual taunts, the provocations to gain popularity at his expense, all that had disappeared.

Not even with Ren carrying weapons... they didn’t dare to openly bother someone who had the support of more than half the class, over twenty people, including the noble cousins.
