When Aster opened his eyes, the liquid inside the bowl was rainbow-colored. It was like this because each ingredient represented a color within the rainbow.

According to Ellery, the contents in the large bowl were enough to fill 10 test tubes. These test tubes had a special lid to keep the spiritual energy from escaping. It also regulated the temperature. Though the test tubes looked like they were made of glass, they were quite durable and were made from a material that only looked like glass. Still, there was a special stand to hold them because they couldn't stand up independently.

Once all the stabilizer tubes were filled, he could test the grade of the stabilizer using a special machine on the large desk.

Aster carefully poured the stabilizers into the tube. There was a line that told him where to stop, so he wouldn't over or underfill it.

After all the stabilizer tubes were capped and placed on the rack, Ellery told him to grab one and put it in the machine. It was simple. All he had to do was turn the machine on, insert the stabilizer tube, press start, and then it would automatically test the grade of the tube.

While waiting for the testing machine, he also turned on the stabilizer labeling machine so that it could label what grade it was. He just needed to press the button with the corresponding grade, and it would automatically label the test tube.

A minute later, the machine was done testing. It made a ding sound to let him know it was done.

[I wonder what grade it is... It should be an A grade if you did everything right.]

Aster also hoped he did it right. When he looked at the grade, the machine stated it was S-grade.

Both Aster and Ellery were shocked.

[What?! How is that... Put another tube into the testing machine just to make sure!]

If the machine was telling the truth, then he became an S-ranked guide while in a coma! Should he go get tested again?!

Aster put another test tube in the machine and sat in front of it, waiting for it to finish assessing its grade again. Just like last time, it said it was S-grade.

[I can't believe this at all! Aster, under the desk, there are some stabilizer tubes that I haven't sent out. Grab one from the box that says D-ranked.]

He did what he was told and put it in the testing machine. Just as the label said, the grade was D.

That means the grade on the stabilizers he made was actually S-grade, and it was not a mistake!

[I... I can't believe this...]

Ellery was flabbergasted and felt a bit melancholy. Before he was reborn, it took another two years to get to S-rank. He worked his ass off to upgrade his spiritual sea, and it paid off.

That's why, he was so fucking angry when he died at the hands of that bastard and his lover! He should have had a beautiful rose-colored life after awakening as a guide! After all of his suffering, like when he lost his parents and his older brother... He should have lived a good life after their sacrifice, but in the end, he died too.

And it was for a dumb reason!

No, he was alive now! The universe gave him a second chance, even if there was another soul in his body. It was better than completely dying and not knowing where his soul was going to go... Yes, this time, he would make sure he lived a good life with Aster and his future sentinel partner!
