Chapter 276 Strongest Sage, Becomes Cooperator

" . . . I see! Simply mixing mixing human personalities together was a fool's errand wasn't it!"

"That's that . . . In other words, the next experimental body will surely succeed . "

"『Composite Test Body No . 1』 was a failure! But . . . The next one will definitely be a hiiiit!"

Looks like these guys are still hellbent on continuing their experiment .

We can't have them resurrect more weird bunch, they need to be stopped–but we need to find where they are first .

『I guess we'll be looking for these guys next . . . 』

『 . . . Trying to find them looks like it'll be a pain . . . 』

. . . [Warmongers] weren't that hard to find since Grevil had a rough idea about their location and they had a trap quest posted .

However, searching for guys who merely hide themselves while doing some questionable things is a tall order .

Unlike demons, they don't have peculiar waves of mana after all .

『Can't you trace back that comm magic tool?』

『 . . . Unfortunately, they've put a countermeasure in it already . 』

I look at the comm magic tool .

A great many magic to conceal the transmission's origin have been installed in it .

Our opponents aren't magic researchers in name only it seems .

Their knowledge in combat may be crude, but the fact that they were able to create living things that combined [Supranatural Art] and magic is a testament to their highly advanced magic techs .

And this comm magic tool employs a similar level of techs .

Even if tracing back could be done, it would probably take many years to complete .

『Then . . . How do we look for them?』

『Right . . . How about asking directly . 』

I talk toward the comm magic .

"Oy, can I have a sec?"

" . . . What is it? The experiment is over . I'm calling off if there's no more data to get . "

"We need to move on to our next experiment . No time to deal with participants . "

Just as Anmorr brothers were about to call off the transmission, I talked to them .

In order to offer my cooperation in their experiments .

"It's about that experiment . . . To tell you the truth, I was hit by an urge to help further development of magic . Could you let me be a sparring partner in your next experiment?"

" . . . Sparring partner?"

"Yeah . It was me who defeated 『Composite Test Body No . 1』 . Won't you get better data if you let me fight the next test subject as well?"

If I got to be a sparring partner in their experiments, these guys would lead me to their test site even if I did nothing .

There's no easier method to look for enemies .

The problem is whether they'd fall for it– .

『 . . . Eh? Sparring partner?』

『There's no way they'd buy something like–』

The girls murmured to hear me .

But . . . The other party had something else in mind .

"Fine . We appreciate your cooperation . "

『He bought it!?』

Alma sounded surprised to hear the elder Anmorr brother .

The little brother seemed to be surprised as well .

" . . . Can we really trust these guys!? The next opponent of [Composite Test Body No . 1] must be someone full of spirit of inquiry towards magic!"

. . . Full of spirit of inquiry toward magic huh .

I never would have imagined someone would say that about me after reincarnating .
