Chapter 294
"Execute . "
The moment I said that, a huge pillar of light ascended to heaven in front of me .
The pillar of light broke up into countless spears of light, raining down the land below .
(Now then . . . got excess 2 seconds huh . )
The damage to my soul is within predictions .
Once I rescind the Sage Gaias Revival in two seconds, it should end without my soul breaking .
Two seconds are enough to cast another medium-scale magic .
What should I use in this situation I wonder .
I mused only for an instant before deciding to spend it for eliminating demons .
This world is currently being encroached by demons .
We managed to wipe them off the inner circle of Eis Kingdom where I was born . . . But we have no clue where all other demons are in other places .
This situation is a huge inconvenient to me .
Even if I managed to lessen their powers here, so long as they keep hiding all over world, there's a chance I'll miss the opportunity to raise promising magic combatants in the future because of those demons .
I can easily annihilate all these lesser demons with a shot of medium-scale magic .
Demons above middle rank may manage to survive a spell that only needs two seconds to cast . . . But that's not a bad deal in itself .
Strong demons could serve as nice sparring partners after all .
I constructed [Eyes of Heaven], a spell to detect and attack demons .
The target is strictly lesser demons .
The magic I cast produced a pillar of light thinner than [Genesis] earlier before diffusing all over the places .
Judging from the diffusion range, there were about 1,200 demons who got caught in it .
That's a lot of demons lurking around .
I made the right choice with this magic .
These lesser demons give no challenge at all when you actually fight one even though they're a pain in the rear, they're the most pointless bunch .
I'm really glad that I ended them without having to go around defeating each one .
As I was thinking that . . . I rescinded the revival magic .

" . . . What a brief revival that was . "
The power of Sage Gaias slipped out of my body the moment I did .
The crest on my hand is also gradually turning back to Disqualified Crest .
And now that I've parted with my previous life's power .
Next I just gotta live in this world with my . . . Mathias's power .
Mathias may not possess the power of the past me–But unlike Sage Gaias, Mathias has room for growth .
Slowly savoring the process to the top is what makes it interesting .
I gazed at the back of my hand as I thought that . . . It had gone back to Disqualified Crest .
"No memory loss, and the state of my soul . . . is within calculations huh . "
My soul has been slightly damaged, but since Souls are something that recover naturally over time, this much damage will be gone in no time .
My state is about the same as before the casting of revival magic .
There are some changes in my magic circuits after taking in a massive amount of mana . . . but it didn't disable me from using magic .
Looks like it went well .
I had expected that I wouldn't be able to move properly right after the rescind, but I can at least walk it seems .
As I thought that, Iris's voice suddenly resounded .
『The magic just now . . . Has, has Gaias-san been revived!?』
She's talking in dragon language to prevent Ruli and Alma from listening in .
『Yeah he did . Just for six seconds long though . . . The me now is Mathias at the core . 』
『Just for six seconds . . . But I guess this is to be expected for Gaias-san from the past . . . 』
Iris looks at her vicinity .
The monsters encircling her have all died out due to [Genesis] .
『Yeah . . . It's gonna take some time before I could get back to that level of power . 』
However, I have no regret with reincarnating .
The mana I used earlier had enormous quantity and quality, but it flowed dully .
The so-called limit of Glory Crest .
I can gain as much mana quality and quantity as I want with training .
But there's nothing you can do about the limitations of Crest .
Reincarnating was worth it for the mere fact that I broke through those limitations .
And I've got companions now, unlike the past me .
. . . Companions who could fight alongside me were another thing I could not obtain in the past .
『You should get back to your human form soon . Lest your wings get damaged again . 』
『I-I understand!』
Iris transformed back to her human form .
The load of Dragon Form is still too much on current Iris .
I'd have liked to heal her wings if I just had more time . . . But Dragon Wings are complex, even the whole six seconds wouldn't have been enough to completely fix them in one magic .
I should spend more time to try to fix Iris's wings .
I saw Ruli and Alma running over here while I was thinking that .
