At first, Noah had never considered fusing the Boosted Gear into his body and using it himself.
The reason was simple. It was not that the Longinus, with its ability to multiply power without limit, failed to tempt Noah. Rather, the special nature of Sacred Gears prevented him from setting his sights on them.
Everyone knew that Sacred Gears had been created by the God of the Bible.
According to the records concerning the manufacturing techniques for Artificial Sacred Gears provided by Azazel, after God's death, the Sacred Gears created by God continued to exist under the control of the Sacred Gear system He had left behind during His lifetime.
In other words, the lodging, operation, activation, performance, and all other aspects of Sacred Gears were managed by the Sacred Gear system left behind by God.
That meant that if Noah fused a Sacred Gear into his body, it would inevitably create two problems.
First: given Noah's overbearing constitution, once a Sacred Gear fused into his body, if it were directly absorbed completely by his physique—which could absorb any power that entered his body—and thoroughly became Noah's own power, would the system then be unable to manage the Sacred Gear within Noah's body, causing its functions to fail?
If that happened, Noah would effectively only be fusing a useless tool into his body. He might as well not bother.
Second: if the Sacred Gear could still function even after being absorbed by Noah's overbearing constitution, then once he left this world and went to another, would the system be unable to make the Sacred Gear function any longer, turning it completely into a dead object?
That was also a
