Chapter 293
" . . . No time for rehearsals huh . "
I activated the finished magic tool while murmuring that .
This magic tool has been carved with a modified version of [Composite Test Body No . 1] magic circle Anmorr brothers created, a spell formula to revive my previous life–Gaias the Sage .
The biggest difference in the spell formula is the material used for reviving .
Apparently Anmorr brothers had used bones they dug up from graves for the creation of [Composite Test Body No . 1] .
However, I don't have the bone of Sage Gaias, the revival target .
I mean, the magic I used to reincarnate myself was a type that disintegrated the entirety of my body including bones, so there's probably nothing left to begin with .
The only element of Sage Gaias that has remained on me is . . . only my soul .
As such, I constructed a revival formula with Sage Gaias's soul as base material .
Since it's not based on physical object, the body of Gaias itself won't be resurrected .
Only powers and ego would flow into my present body .
It'd be an overload to my currently undeveloped body and magic circuits .
My body will crumble if I merely take in the power . However . . . I should manage to withstand if it's only for a very short time .
" . . . Guh . . . This is pretty painful . . . "
As the magic tool booted up, Gaias's power began to flow into my body .
Of course it's the kind of power this body can't possibly bear .
Magic circuits in my entire body screamed out, my cells are decaying .
I put all the mana flowing in into healing my crumbling body .
However, I cannot null the pain .
I had gone through countless battles and suffered many life-threatening injuries in my past life .
And even for me, this much pain is a first .
An ordinary man would have long lost their sanity .
However . . . As my body keeps being healed and destroyed, it's gradually getting used to the new power .
No, the revived power of Gaias that was sleeping within me is reinforcing my body .
And . . . The crumbling began to stop .
At the same time, the Crest on the back of my hand has turned into an unnatural one–it's like a mix of Disqualified and Glory Crests .
A distorted Crest that can't have been a normal one .
The shape of the crest is oscillating unstably, turning deep then thin then deep over and over again .
Every time the crest got thinner, I felt like power slipped out of my body accompanied by intense pain .

( . . . Seven seconds huh . More than enough time . )
Looks like putting together powers from different crests in one body is really forcing it .
At the rate this is going, my soul will completely collapse, and I myself will die and can never even reincarnate again .
Hence I'll end this in six seconds .
I've made the Sage Gaias Revival spell formula to be turn off-able .
I'll settle the situation in six seconds and turn off the spell art afterward .
Six seconds are quite an ample time for the me right now .
(First off . . . Gotta banish the nuisance . )
I assemble a powerful object acceleration magic in an instant .
The target is the fallen [Broken Star] in front of me .
This [Broken Star] is not something that should exist on this planet right now .
Once accelerated to 60% of this acceleration magic, the [Broken Star] should gain enough velocity to escape this planet's gravitational pull .
"Begone . "
I cast the acceleration magic while murmuring .
And then the [Broken Star] vanished into the sky while emitting an intense light .
And now, no need to worry about principle of magic getting destroyed by [Broken Star] .
Our main objective is complete now .
But . . . The monsters here would murder me if I turned back into Mathias as is .
Ruli and Alma could be in danger as well, I've got to dispose of these monsters .
Which means . . . I need to use a spell art that won't affect humans .
As I was thinking that, I recalled one magic and started constructing that .
It's a wide-area attack magic called [Genesis] in the past era .
A magic that targets only monsters and demons in the designated area and rains down huge mass of mana upon them and only them to destroy their souls .
Since it also ignores terrains on top of not affecting humans, I used this handy magic a lot in the past life to dispose of small fry .
Its area of effect can be freely set, but in this case I use the preset I used a lot in the past–which means, 1 billion targets within 100 kilometer radius .
To prevent Iris from getting hit, I remove dragons from target .
"Man this takes back . "
I pour my mana into the completed magic .
The sensation at this point felt quite nostalgic to me .
My mana feels heavy .
I can't construct magic as well as I desired .
This is not because of the revival .
It's just how the mana of 『Glory Crest』 like .
Now that I'm experiencing 『Glory Crest』 once again, I can only be grateful with 『Disqualified Crest』 I have now .
The present me may posses little mana, but it moves just as I want it to .
. . . I completed [Genesis] magic while thinking that .
My mana is heavy indeed but not to the point of being unusable .
After all, the past me wielded mana hundreds times heavier than this .
