Chapter 305 Strongest Sage, Raises Victory Chance



"Awakened soon . . . And there's no mistake about that is there . . . "


"It's been quite some time since Zaridias was defeated . . . Does that mean it could awaken any time now?"


"Yeah . Judging from the way these documents are written . . . We probably have around a month left . "


None of the documents detail the exact date of the next [Chaotic Demon]'s awakening .


But from analyzing the content of those documents and all the words on it . . . I can hazard a guess when that would likely be .


The deciding factor is . . . information about diversions planned by demons in these documents .


Those demons were apparently planning to deploy diversion tactics at many places like capital and such just as the [Chaotic Demon] awakened .


It's rare for demons to be so organized . . . Which just reinforces how strong this [Chaotic Demon] is .


"One month!?"


"Yeah . The time we have is too short, it's practically impossible to reseal it back . We've got no choice but to defeat the demon the moment it comes out . "


We will need to construct a very large-scale sealing magic if we wish to restore the seal used on a high-ranking demon .


It's actually not unachievable if we borrow Second Academy's and Ruli's powers . . . But the time limit is just too brief .


We don't even know where the demon is sealed .


It would take two years to restore such a seal .


"Demon stronger than Zaridias . . . Can that even be defeated!?"


" . . . Head-on confrontation is out of question . "


I replied thus to Alma .


There's no chance of victory in an exchange of blows even against Zaridias .


I might have a chance if I used another Rebirth Sword like before . . . But I can't use that trick anymore unfortunately .


Gotta fight with another method this time .


"Are you saying there's a way to win without direct confrontations then?"


<TLN: If you're reading this novel at any other site than Sousetsuka . com you might be reading an unedited, uncorrected version of the novel . >


"Yeah . It won't be easy . . . but we have a chance to win with that method . "


Chance to win . . . or rather, it's a surefire winning strategy .


Up until lately, it was something I couldn't have attempted . . . But thanks to Gaias's revival, the possibility is here now .


A particular weapon is required to make that happen though .


It's far easier to obtain than a Rebirth Sword, getting my hands on it should be a simple matter .


The things got super popular for a period of time in the previous era, those should be lying around everywhere .


"I need an equipment first . . . But don't worry, it's easier to get than a Rebirth Sword . "


Then I cast a magic called [Active Material Detection] .


It's a magic to probe mana let off by materials in the surrounding area .


This magic will immediately find the weapon I need if one is around here .


Since that weapon was pretty popular in the past, I was sure one would be buried somewhere in the vicinity of the capital .


Or so I thought . . . But I got no hit .


"Doesn't seem to be any around here . Seems like we're gonna need to expand the search area . "


If there are places where relics of ancient civilizations like Saihill Empire's Water Network remain . . . There would also be locations where those relics have been lost .


The difference was probably dictated by whether a particular place was vulnerable to the after effect of the mana reactor meltdowns or not .


The weapons I'm looking for must have all been destroyed here in this place .


"What kind of equipment do you need anyway?"


"It's a sword called 『Man-eating Blade』 . "


Grevil looked surprised when he heard me .


Then . . . he asks me with a serious expression on his face .


"Mathias-san . . . You can't be planning to use that, can you?"


"Yeah . . . My magic circuits saw a remarkable reinforcement recently . . . I should be able to use it now . "


By recently I mean Gaias's revival through [Broken Star] .


None of the mana from that time remained . . . But after taking in an enormous amount of mana and thanks to the repeated destructions and restorations, my magic circuits have become far stronger than ever before .


[Man-eating Blade] will still be quite hard to handle even with my current state . . . But we've got a far better chance of victory with it compared to other weapons .


"What kind of weapon is that anyway?"


"You never tried using it even though it enables you to fight against strong demons . . . There must be a reason behind that right?"


Iris and Alma asked me with worried looks .


Well, I mean the sword's got that name and all . . .


『Man-eating Blade』 is such a dangerous sounding name .


" . . . 『Man-eating Blade』 is a sword that connects man and Dragon Veins . "


"Connects . . . man and Dragon Veins?"


"Yeah . . . It magically connects human's magic circuits to Dragon Veins . . . And once it does, you have free rein over the practically limitless mana found in Dragon Veins . "


The mana flowing in Dragon Veins are of far inferior quality than that flowing in human's body though, so you need a variety of tricks to make it usable .


Even during the past era where magic was highly developed, the topic of difficulty in handling Dragon Veins' mana was one of prominent problems among magic researchers .
