Chapter 281 Strongest Sage, Confronts Test Body
It wasn't obvious at first due to his normal mana reaction compared to [Warmongers]'--but little brother Anmorr has probably taken in the effect [Broken Star] .
The next experimental body after [Warmongers] is the little Anmorr himself--Lunat Anmorr .
" . . . You turned yourself into a test body huh . "
"But of course! There's only one body I understand most in the whole world, and that is mine! And with my mana as a base rather than other test bodies, it's far more stable than some plebs! Nothing else can compare as the best test body there is!"
"In addition I have been putting him under the necessary magic enchant for the past month . . . We can confidently say that it's our highest masterpiece . "
Experimenting on their own bodies huh, these guys are pretty zealous .
The past me had done something similar so many times as well .
. . . Going reincarnating in order to change my crest was the terminus of that .
Doesn't mean that I won't crush this experiment though .
"Good then, I can fight without worry . "
"Yeah . Go ahead and fight to your fullest . . . But hold on a bit, I need to set up data collecting magic tools first . "
Elder Anmorr cast multiple magic then .
Several magic tools got deployed all around the barrier that enclosed us .
" . . . Those are some fanciful equipment . "
I check the magic tools for any that can be used to attack while pretending to be impressed .
"Obviously! My big brother Saikia Anmorr is this world's best augmenter! This test facility is the culmination of his skill!"
. . . Best in the world huh .
Well, the work put on his magic circles is a bit loose, but perhaps that title fits considering the current world .
These equipment are more than adequate for collecting rough combat data .
That aside . . .
"You're not gonna fight the way you are now, are you?"
I asked the little brother Anmorr .
Right now, he's not been strengthened that much .
The unnatural mana reaction inside his body isn't acting like it's reinforcing human mana for now .
However, I've noticed the two magic stones embedded near little Anmorr's heart .
The reinforcement on this guy will probably go into effect once that magic tool is started .
I can't attack right now since there's a barrier between me and Lunat .
They probably intend to remove that barrier once he's done getting reinforced .
Although it's not like attacking over the barrier can't be done . . . But it'd be difficult to end the fight in one blow then .
Besides, elder Anmorr will probably regard it as an act of betrayal and join the fray .
So long as I cannot end the fight in one shot, I'd be forced to fight the two of them at the same time .
These guys are ancient mages for once .
It's not easy to win a frontal fight in a location set up by your enemy .
For now I should go along with the test, defeat little Anmorr and go after the elder one afterward .
. . . It would be best if they failed with the strengthening experiment and self-destruct though .
"Not fight they way you are now . . . huh . Correct . . . Lunat, are you ready?"
"I'm ready anytime you are! . . . Now, come and do it!"
"Understood . . . Activation!"
Once elder Anmorr declared so--a change occurred .
Little Anmorr's mana rapidly swelled up and began sucking up surrounding mana .
"T-this is the power of [Broken Star] . . . ! Ooh! I'm overflowing with power!"
Little Anmorr shouted with an enraptured expression .
Guess I can't count on him self-destructing due to failure .

I murmured when I saw that .
" . . . His life force is increasing . "
"Correct . . . You've got good intuitions . You may have talent in magic research . . . It's too bad that you have to die here . "
[Composite Test Body No . 1] was a fusion of ten people, acquiring enhanced strength by combining them .
However this [Strengthened Test Body No . 1]--little Anmorr isn't that different from ordinary human .
There's only one thing little Anmorr differs from ordinary human .
It's the fact that he possesses an unbelievable amount of life force unthinkable for mere human .
Life force is the root of all mana and physical strength .
Your mana and strength will automatically increase if you strengthen your life force .
This [Strengthened Test Body No . 1] has his life force increased through [Broken Star] that possessed, [Revival] which is in a way the strongest buff on life force, to create a reinforced human .
"Lunat, how's your intelligence, any problem?"
" . . . My thoughts are clear! There's no problem at all!"
"Very well . . . This is the culmination of our [Broken Star Experiment]--Strengthened Test Body No . 1 . We will now begin combat test as scheduled . . . Are you ready?"
Elder Anmorr looked at me as he said that .
Hearing that, I winked at the girls for an instant--and replied .
"Yea . "
"Well then, starting test . "
Elder Anmorr removed the barrier that separated me from little Anmorr .
And almost at the same time, little Anmorr deployed attack magic .
