In this manga adaptation of the popular light novel series, the world's strongest sage will stop at nothing to get stronger...not even reincarnation!
Once the world's most powerful sage, reborn Matthias has gained the optimal crest for magical combat many thousands of years in the future. But with magical knowledge at an all-time low in this new era, no one recognizes Matthias's crest for what it is, and it will be an uphill battle for the twelve-year-old sage to prove his greatness to everyone!
With the demons seeking to eliminate all who are aware of their plot to cripple mankind through magic disinformation, Matthias stands on the frontline of the battle...but he's not alone! He's got the legendary dragon Iris by his side, not to mention the students of the Second Academy who've been training to unleash their full potential. Together, they'll fight back against the all-powerful demons!
Ok this volume has officially killed off any possible stakes that this series could have pretended to have. Like the "threat" of the story has been made so non-threatening that it is sad. Like the heroes should not be winning this easily and the villains losing so fast. Like why should I care when it barely seems like the characters do? These aren't battles they are one-sided slaughters being perpetrated by the 'heroes' of the story. These demons have shown no power comparable to Matty so why should I as the reader be here, what am I seeing happening? I am seeing nothing. There are no fun battles, no interesting characters, and the world has lost its intrigue.
Another solid volume from this series, the build up for the battle is really good and shows genuine growth and then the battle is just madness foe anyone not in the main party ro witness.
Also one panel really optimised an OP MC and there party
This volume delivers again! The anticipation leading up to the battle was captivating, and the fight itself was an exciting read. It's refreshing to see not just the main party's immense power at work, but also the impressive skills honed by the other academy students who learned from them.
