Sword of the Philosopher

Interference from this world led to the existence of a tale called 'Elders Sword' in previous life... such speculation shocked me not least, but I can't do anything about it right now because I understand.

So we're going to have to put this on hold.

"I'm sorry that Mr. Leon is bothering you, but I'm back to work because we've got a paragraph to talk about."

That's what Devals said and got up.

"Conduct an investigation and capture the whereabouts of both Rostaldo and Alan. Until then, wait... no, just train me."

He leaves the room. Meanwhile, Sophia and Richard stay here and wait for my word.

"... well, isn't it the only way to be?

That's what I told you, the Anvelate that stayed just like us.

"I can't help arguing here and now. Even if the gods of this world were deeply involved with Mr. Luon's past life, there's nothing we can do about it."

"That's right..."

"And look, it's so hard to see the impact of God in the real world? I don't know if physical interference is possible."

Does that make sense too......

"And right now, you're on your way to putting all sorts of measures against God, aren't you? So be convinced."

... I also feel like I'm being unscrupulous, but is her language correct?

"Right. Let's finish the battle first."

"Right. So, it's time for training, but what do you do?

"I don't care what they say... it feels like we're going to enhance each technique."

"I have a suggestion to make."

Meaningful Anverate words. I have a spectacularly unpleasant feeling.

"Oh, what's that face? Are you dissatisfied?

"Disgruntled or nothing...... well no. What do you call that suggestion?

"Even if Mr. Leon is able to fight Rothald with his original strength, I wonder if it would be tough to defeat him."

"... on what grounds?

When asked back, Anverate laughed,

"Though it is difficult to speak specifically… one thing I can say for sure is that at the time of his engaging and fleeing, Rostaldo understood the strength of Mr. Luon and Mr. Sophia. So we're going to do something about it."

Yeah, I agree with that. Because there are still parts of them that are uncertain about their abilities. I don't know if I can think of anything better than this one.

"That's my suggestion."

"Suggestion hey...... what's in it?

"The next time we fight, we have to develop more powerful moves than we do now, right? Besides, that made it a little more powerful by boosting technology... not something like that"

"Right."

"I think so too"

Agreed Sophia.

It's not the kind of problem I'd solve overnight, but I don't even know when or when Rostaldo would move -

"Truth be told, I've been doing some research."

Suddenly Anverate began to speak.

"You guys know what magic fusion is?

"Fusion?"

"To put it plainly, I mean the technique of linking the magical powers of multiple beings to each other. Advantages include increased effectiveness and power over existing magic… and synergies."

Oh, I see what you're trying to say.

"I mean, is that it? Are you trying to tell me that if you blend me with Sophia's magic or something, it's a solution?

"You can't take him down unless you do enough to get behind Rostaldo, can you? Then why don't you just slap me like this? Fortunately, Rostaldo doesn't know about my research, and I'm going to put my finger on it."

... Whatever the way we do it, I do agree that we have to get behind it.

"I can understand that you came up with a proposal like that because you were researching it, but is that easy to do?

"Probably fine."

Words that make me so anxious...... well if that's the way it works, there's no harm in trying...?

"Even if I were to do that, what exactly am I supposed to do?

"We'll start by checking if the magic works well with each other. And then... yes, we need to make sure that too, because Mr. Leon's magic can reduce his power."

"The former is fine, can the latter confirm?

"That's a lot of questions."

"I thought it might be a good idea, but it's not like we have that much time until the next fight. If I can do it, I want to use more certainty."

Anverate responds "I see" to this comment.

"Okay...... well it won't take that long if it's about an exam, maybe I can give it a try"

"... Sophia, what do you think?

"I think it's a good idea."

Opinions that I agree with. Well, then...

"Let's have a little chat with Mr. Devals, and if it feels good, shall we?"

"Fine. I will cooperate fully."

"That means working together to defeat Rostaldo... to accomplish the purpose of the Anverate, right?

I kind of ask for confirmation. Then she nodded without a nibble,

"Yes, of course."

I gave him an invincible grin. Her course of action, I could be sure that was undoubtedly consistent.

Consulting Devals about what was proposed to Anverate returned a surprisingly simple answer.

"That's okay."

"... that's a lot lighter"

"The defensive side can help, but the offensive side can't really cooperate. I don't think I'm a bad answer myself as a way to get rid of Rostaldo."

Devals is also impressed... it is subtle when asked if there are any other specific proposals, and is it enough to see if the technique can be used for one second?

Therefore, it is decided to converge with Anverate and begin verification. First, give us a little bit of our magic to investigate.

"It will take about a day for the results to come out, so let's decide how to use this technique by then."

"Using?"

"Just because you can fuse doesn't mean you can combine anything"

"Normally, it would be best to use magic."

"Hey. It would be desirable to have the same attributes and the same lineage of magic."

"I know it's the same attribute, but what's the same lineage?

"For example, when combining the magic of lightning attributes, it's impossible to fuse it when it's pouring from heaven or releasing it from the tip of the user's hand."

Oh, I see, is that what you mean?

"Hmm, because Sophia and I don't really match our specialties in magic... we're both better at this kind of stuff. Magic is more powerful too, right?

"That's right, but why don't we just fit in? We need to compromise somewhere."

"Sophia, what do you think?

"Right...... Mr. Anverate, do you have any attributes that are tolerable when you are a fallen angel opponent, attributes of weakness, etc?

"I have a lot of temper, so I can feel like I'm resistant to the dark system, but I don't think that's it. Ex-angels may also seem strong in light or something, but angels and fallen angels can be magically interpreted no longer as separate. The fundamentals are fine in every system."

"Shall I make it a good light for Master Luon?"

"Can you go with me?

"I was wondering if it would be more powerful than I combined."

"The fusion magic I've been studying doesn't mean that the magic between users has to match. If you're going to push, that's what you should do."

Light... so if it's magic, it's nothing but the finest magic, Ragnarek, but Sophia...

"I myself have learned the magic that Master Luon possesses."

"... you remember?

"Yes, I didn't get a chance to show you..."

Amazing statement. And Anverate slapped his hand,

"It's settled. Fusion magic between the two of you… let's get it done."

He smiled and told us.
