The rubble that has not yet dispersed surrounded the figure in the ashes.

The black silk wings that broke out of the ground, after flapping several times, completely dragged the captured woman in yellow into the ground.

The battle between life and death often only lasts for a moment.

but.

A certain young man was not satisfied.

(…bastard…)

The instigator, unable to move, lay on his back on the ground, gasping for air.

Although he had successfully defeated his opponent through inducement and calculation, Accelerator could not see the joy of victory on his face.

(...cough...is this so-called "magic"...?)

Feeling that his physical condition was gradually deteriorating due to unknown reasons, the first one gritted his teeth.

(……damn it……)

Facts have proved that even though he can 'reflect' many things, there are still areas where it cannot be applied.

The laws he didn't see clearly were more complicated than he imagined.

After personal experience, he still has not sorted out the answer.

However, the clues collected are enough.

The boy named "Accelerator" is the strongest superpower in the city.

It doesn't simply mean 'the most capable', but it means that he has 'the best brain in Academy City'.

In other words, even if it is not a 'reflection', he still firmly believes that he can sit in the 'number one' position.

so.

The next difficulty is——

The restless sounds came from all directions.

The figure that was supposed to disappear appeared again.

"Ha, if it's just this level, wouldn't it make my expectations in vain?"

Along with the shaking and vibration, the wind from the front reappeared and waved the hammer, seemingly unscathed.

After wiping away the blood stains at the corners of his mouth, Feng's face was filled with a hint of mockery.

Although the attack just now was a bit unexpected, the result was completely within her tolerance.

"It's that bastard Aleister."

Recalling the scene where he was restrained by the 'coil' stretched out from the back of the white-haired boy just now, the spirit of the Christian Christian made him laugh.

"How many disgusting toys did that guy give you?"

The symbol of "angel" was manipulated wantonly, which made her hate science even more intense.

"What a pathetic little devil."

Feng Sui Sui thought to himself, lowered his weapon and started walking forward.

"From the very beginning, it was clear that all I had to do was lie on the ground."

Her eyes remained cold.

"It's a pity that we missed the opportunity to turn defeat into victory."

"Just supporting the body's functions is already exhausting."

She hummed boredly.

Yes.

Feng could see through Accelerator's state at a glance.

I don't even have the energy to pursue the victory, and I'm at the end of my rope. That's probably what it sounds like.

In the final analysis.

In the face of 'unknown means', even if the first one was prepared, the information gap between the two fields still caused unbearable results.

He has truly realized that "superpowers" are not compatible with "magic".

Accelerator twisted his body in an ugly posture and tried his best to stand up again.

And behind him, the footsteps of the end were getting closer and closer.

In consequentialist terms, this means that he again.

Failed.

(Are you kidding me!!!)

Isn’t he the ‘strongest’ superpower in the city?

Why can't you even protect those guys' peaceful lives?

The white-haired boy wanted to scream angrily, but he couldn't even complete such a simple vent.

but.

He is still alive.

Then everything is not over yet.

must.

There must be an opportunity that he is not aware of.

Accelerator, who would never allow himself to sit still and wait for death, squeezed every inch of space in his brain.

Until, the time of continued existence was so long that even he felt redundant.

what happened?

Accelerator raised his head slightly when he realized something was wrong.

This is the moment.

Something crossed his line of sight.

(……What……?)

The first one asked subconsciously.

Then, someone answered for him.

"...Glowing feathers?"

No, is this...

One piece, two pieces, three pieces... pure white light feathers all over the sky are floating in all directions.

"This magical composition..."

Forced to stop, Qianfeng looked around and murmured in an incredible tone.

"'Dragoh's Lament'...?!"

then.

next moment.

A certain voice sounded.

In a way that Accelerator couldn't understand, it was clearly conveyed to his mind.

(Are you looking this embarrassed again, young man?)

(Obviously I gave it to you a long time ago... Apparently, you didn't use the 'key' I left on 'her' to figure out the correct answer.)

"——?!!"

…

…

The bright sword light lit up the night sky in an instant.

After the violent circular air wave burst out, it seemed that there was no winner between the two users of the "Mother Worship Technique" based on their body shape alone.

only--

Compared to Yuuki's slight smile, Shui's face was ashen.

Furthermore, it should be described as terrible.

This change is not like the pain of a fatal injury, but closer to seeing the regret and determination of someone who has gone astray.

While adjusting his breath, the mercenary's throat shook slightly, and he made a sound that he couldn't recognize after knowing the truth.

"So that's it..."
To be continued...
