176-176, the strongest mage, reverse Nan




 I read through the books on the divine artifacts in the library, but unfortunately I couldn't get the information I was hoping for.

There was almost no description of what exactly the artifacts were. Even if there was, there were so many theories about it that I don't even know which one I should refer to.

 I knew it was not going to be easy, I guess.
 However, it was not a waste of time, as I was unable to obtain any information.

 After reading over three thousand books, I discovered that certain descriptions have something in common.

 When I put them together, I found out that the divine artifacts are made from the 'soul' of a person or god.

The soul is the raw material....? Isn't that quite disturbing? And is it really possible to use a soul as a raw material?

 The question comes to mind.

 Of course, a thousand years ago, I also paid attention to the "soul" that dwells in people and tried to find a way to make use of it through trial and error.
 However, using the "soul" was not a simple matter. What I could do was to send my soul, which resides in my body, to the world a thousand years ago. That is the reincarnation magic that came in this era.

"But that's not something I can do repeatedly either.

 It requires a lot of prep work.
 However, I'm also quite fond of this era, so I don't plan to use reincarnation magic again, but.......

''Well, either way, it doesn't look like we're going to get any more information about the divine weapon.

 If it turns out to be so, let me get the hell out of here.

 I put the book away on the shelf and was about to leave the library.
 It was a short time, but it was the first time in a long time that I had done something called reading. I had a pretty good time.

 Thinking about that, I was about to go out through the gate.


'Wait!'


 Suddenly, I'm approached from behind.

'What?'

 I could have ignored it, but it would have been too much trouble later on.

 He turned around and looked at the owner of the voice.
 The owner of the voice had the appearance of a dainty little girl.
 However, because of the wings on her back, you can guess that she is not just a girl, but an 'angel'.

''I have something to say to you...''

 The point?
 I do have an idea.......well, I do.

 I tampered with the gate's magic formula and forced my way into the library.
 I'm sure you'll be able to find it if you see it. Maybe.
 If I can be blamed for forcing my way into the library........

 I was a little nervous, waiting for her to say something.


Oh, um...! If you'd like, you can start with me and your friends!


What?

 I can't help but ask the question back, as he asks me the most outrageous thing I've ever heard.

"What the hell are you talking about? I believe this is the first time I've met you...?

 And what do you mean by 'start' from a friend? The way you put it, it sounds like there's more to it than meets the eye, doesn't it?
 As expected of me, I was in a bit of a quandary.

I mean, you were reading a book.
You read it.
That's when I saw you and was scared to death!
I still don't know what you're talking about.

 I'm scared........I didn't do anything to this guy.
 Of course I don't do anything that streetwise either. Even in the past, I haven't done that.... maybe.

 But the angel continues as if to wind up

'Your profile when you're reading a book! It was very nice. It was like a higher god ruling a nation! You were full of dignity and the way you read your books showed your intelligence. I fell in love with you.......at first sight!
It's love at first sight?

 You can't help but raise your voice.

 Oh no... I rarely get upset about things, but I tend to lose sight of my normal self when it comes to things involving women.
 Perhaps the reason is that a thousand years ago, I had almost no experience of talking to women.
 

'Yes! So please, start with me and my friends! Best regards!

 The angel held out his right hand and bowed deeply.

 I'm troubled.
 It's hard to refuse........

 But.

I'm sorry. It's nice of you to say so, but I don't have time for that sort of thing. Besides - I don't know if you realize it - but I'm human. I wouldn't be able to match you as an angel.

 I decided to say no.

 Of course.
 I have no intention of living permanently in the divine world, and if I make friends in a place like this, won't it be a hassle later on?

 Didn't the angels realize I was human?

''Eh........human? How could humans be in the God Realm... no, it's not like humans are that cool! I've heard that humans are creatures that spit fire from their mouths and emit rays of light from their eyes!
There are no such monstrous people anywhere!

 I tsked with the momentum.

'For now, I can't respond to your feelings. I'm sorry. Well, I'll take it........
Wait!

 As I was about to walk away from the scene, the angel hurriedly followed me.
 He's persistent!

'Huh...? Gone?

 It was the last time he heard her voice.

''Ha, ha ... you've wasted your magic power.

 Using transfer magic, I moved to a place far away from the angel I had just seen.
 No matter how much transference magic uses a large amount of magical power, I'm not the one who is out of breath at this level... but the fact is that I was breathing on my shoulder.

''I should put a little more resistance to the woman, too.

 In this era, I've made friends with girls like Lara and Marise and Cynthia, but I still have a lot of training to do.
 But can it be done........for me?

 It's a strange thing.
 A thousand years ago, I never thought about this kind of thing at all...and now I find myself very aware of it.
