Of course, this blue-haired magus immediately understood what this non-human entity was talking about. How could the so-called "Ultimate Being" in the eyes of humans compare to the "Ultimate Being" in the eyes of a non-human? The Ultimate Being mentioned by this non-human before him must be far more powerful than he imagined.
In that case, his physical body should be able to become an immortal and powerful existence. As long as he achieved the immortality of his soul, he would be the true Ultimate Being on this planet. With the development of the times, perhaps he could even come into contact with power from the stars beyond. At that time, he would certainly be able to take another step forward, and his path as an Ultimate Being stepping into this universe would begin.
Looking at it this way, should he thank this non-human existence before him?
The blue-haired magus knew that this non-human existence definitely approached him because there was something to be gained from him. So, what else about him could be utilized by others right now? Perhaps only this body of his, right? This was also why the fellow before him said he wanted to transform his body into something stronger, the so-called Ultimate Being.
Isn't this wonderful?
While being used, he also obtained excellent returns that were extremely difficult for him to achieve alone. Speaking purely as an old man whose strength wasn't particularly great, when would he ever be able to become like a so-called Ultimate Being?
I'm afraid I wouldn't have the chance even until my soul is annihilated in this lifetime, right?
The level humans could touch was still somewhat too low. At least compared to those non-human long-lived species, it wasn't enough to look at. To be honest, the blue-haired magus had wanted to return to the distant past more than once, at least to the era when gods still existed. At that time, perhaps humans still had contact with the Ultimate Beings spoken of by these long-lived species.
The blue-haired magus looked at the wine before him without hesitation, picked it up, and drank it down. Do not forget that he was a very qualified and competent magus. It was precisely because of this that he possessed the mindset of a normal magus. As long as the benefits of the equivalent exchange were sufficient, then there was absolutely no problem. Anyway, if he couldn't win the Holy Grail War, his soul wouldn't be able to last much longer, even with the body of an Ultimate Being.
The blue-haired magus actually had a bit of a headache. He had used his magecraft back then when it still had huge flaws. However, it was too late to regret it now. It was precisely because of this that he desperately tried to find a remedy. The Holy Grail War was the only hope in his hands. To be honest, this magus did not believe that the non-human creature before him had a way to solve his soul problem...
"Come, modify my body. It doesn't matter how you play with it. Anyway, I only have this body that can be utilized by you, right? So, only if the power I possess becomes stronger and stronger will you be able to perfectly execute your stratagem!"
Since his body was what the other party wanted to use, and this was his bargaining chip now, he naturally had to make good use of this chip in his hand. After all, this chip was also a very important thing to him. If not for this thing, he wouldn't have damaged his soul to reach his current state. Should I say my current state is good or bad? He couldn't say for sure either. In short, it was useful right now.
Flauros frowned slightly, then curled his lips. However, the current situation was indeed within his expectations. How should I put it? Although the guy before him was a fool in military strategy, if he were truly stupid, he wouldn't have researched a way to make his body young and his soul continue to exist.
Of course, strictly speaking, the magecraft this magus completed first was to maintain the youth of the physical body. However, he subsequently discovered that with the passage of time, his soul began to become incredibly fragile. Thus, he began to think of ways to strengthen his soul, completing the magecraft of devouring others' souls to reinforce himself.
But this magecraft had flaws in the end. Things that are not yours will always be difficult to truly become yours. Especially with souls devouring souls; as it increased, the colors on his own soul would also become more and more mottled and complex. Eventually, it would collapse one day. This situation would occur even if he devoured the souls of children who had not yet experienced the world, or even the souls of infants.
Flauros watched the magus before him finish the wine he ordered, so he nodded. The two of them dismissed the girls surrounding them and then walked to a secluded place.
Although Flauros had already displayed himself, or rather, the great work they had created at the location of the Holy Grail, the gaze of the Heroic Spirits and other magi should be on that area right now. He just needed to find a vacant lot with relatively few people to complete the transaction with this magus, which was to turn the guy before him into an Ultimate Being.
However, after all, it was currently the period of the Holy Grail War. As long as it was during the war, various things could happen. Even if it made these magi cast their gaze to other areas, it was not impossible.
But there was a place that these magi and Heroic Spirits would basically find difficult to think of, and that was within the underground sewers of the town. It had to be said that during its initial reformation period, the Far East learned from the West of Earth. Whether it was their management system or the architectural style of the city, they took it all. Therefore, the underground sewers of the city were very similar to those in most Western countries.
That is, apart from the place for sewage discharge, there were also edges for people to walk on. Although the sewers in the new city district had become similar to pipelines, the wide design style was still maintained. Walking one or two people was still no problem. There were even huge sewage treatment spaces.
Many people should have seen Detective Chinatown 3. Although massive spaces like high-rise buildings built underground rarely exist in reality, scaling it down five or six times is still relatively common.
Such a large space was even sufficient to conduct a round of battle underground. Even building a not-too-large villa house in this space would be no problem, let alone fitting two humanoid existences.
The blue-haired magus opened his arms. Flauros extended his hand, which held a large amount of power belonging to other Demon Gods. Subsequently, he stuffed it all into the chest of the magus before him in one go.
"Take a sleep. When you wake up again, you will be an Ultimate Being!"
