A Scientific Urban Detective.

Chapter 592: Kamijou Touma and the Fire Magician
Stiyl suppressed the rage in his chest—he couldn't go too far. Besides, Index was right there, and the "Mobile Church" was broken. Using large-scale magic could easily injure her...

"Hmm? Your 'Mobile Church'..." Stiyl suddenly thought of something, "Could it be that this person destroyed it?"

“That’s right!” Kamijou Touma answered first. “So you know how powerful I am! I can even destroy that amazing piece of clothing, not to mention the flames you unleashed.”

Kamijou Touma glared at him with a bluff, muttering to himself, "He's just a high-level rage user... I've fought him before, so it's no problem."

The familiar comment made Stiyl's defenses a little broken, and his forehead trembled: "I told you, I'm a magician! Don't compare me with those ridiculous anger abilities of yours!"

As if to prove himself, Stiyl no longer hides and brazenly launches his ultimate move - "Hunting the Witch King"!
The corridor instantly turned into a sea of ​​fire, and then the flames gathered behind Stiyl, forming a flaming giant, emitting bursts of suffocating scorching breath.

"Run, Touma! You can't defeat this with your right hand alone!" Index screamed in warning.

Kamijou Touma tried, but he couldn't defeat it - although his "Fantasy Breaker" could eliminate the flames, this fire giant could regenerate infinitely.

A huge ball of fire over two meters high almost filled the entire corridor. Kamijou Touma couldn't put it out all at once with just one hand!

After taking two risky attempts, Kamijou Touma gained nothing except his hair and clothes being carbonized by high temperature.

"Hey, hey, hey, this big guy is basically cheating!" Kamijou Touma was forced to retreat repeatedly due to the heat wave.

Seeing that he had finally given up hope, Stiyl calmly controlled the fire giant to move forward.

"This is bad, this is bad..." Kamijou Touma's brain was working rapidly, thinking of a countermeasure.

At this moment, Index's cry of surprise came from behind.

Looking back, I saw a fire giant of the same style at the other end of the corridor!

Two fire giants, one in front and one behind, slowly surged towards the center, blocking Index and Kamijou Touma in the corridor, leaving them nowhere to escape!
"Touma, let's jump down!" Index suddenly grabbed Kamijou Touma's clothes and moved towards the railing beside the corridor.

Indeed, there are fire giants in front and behind, and a wall on the right, so only the left side is empty and can be used to escape.

But the problem is...

"This is the seventh floor!" Kamijou Touma shouted.

Index had already grabbed his left hand, nimbly climbed over the guardrail, and leaped out of the apartment building!
Caught off guard, most of Kamijou Touma's body was dragged out, and he was relying on his right arm to hold on to the railing.

"Let go!" Index urged, "Do you want to be burned to death?"

“Of course not,” Kamijou Touma also shouted, “But I don’t want to fall to my death either!”

"Don't worry, nothing will happen. I'll act as a cushion!" said Index.

"Are you crazy? Am I a monster? How could I possibly use a girl as a buffer?"

"Don't worry, I have the 'Mobile Church'... The 'Mobile Church' was destroyed by you!" Index suddenly came to her senses and started shouting as well.

"Are you stupid!"

"It's all your fault for breaking the 'Mobile Church'!"

"You're the one who asked me to prove my 'Imagine Breaker'!"

Just as the two were arguing fiercely, Stiyl walked through the flames and came to the guardrail with an expression of being unable to hold back.

But when he saw Kamijou Touma clinging to the railing, his expression suddenly turned cold: "It's you who destroyed the 'Mobile Church'!"

"Huh? Why are you so angry?" Kamijou Touma asked in surprise, "Shouldn't this be a good thing for you?"

"Stop talking nonsense and go to hell!" Stiyl raised his foot and kicked Kamijou Touma's right arm without any hesitation.

"No, no, no, you can't do this..." Kamijou Touma dodged the enemy's kick with extraordinary agility, but the price was that he was left with only his right hand tightly grasping the guardrail, and his entire body was hanging outside the building.

He also had to hold Index tightly with his left hand to prevent her from falling.

On the inside of the guardrail, Stiyl looked down at Kamijou Touma coldly from above.

Kamijou Touma was slightly relieved that Stiyl did not continue to attack him with his hands or feet.

But soon he was no longer happy.

Because the two fire giants also came to the guardrail.

The metal guardrail instantly became hot.

Kamijou Touma screamed and let go of his hand.

Then, he continued to fall downwards, screaming—along with Index who was also screaming.

Stiyl snorted coldly. But he certainly couldn't let Index fall to her death, so he swung his hand and shot a rune card downwards.

Stiyl is proficient in fire magic, and also in various other applications based on it...

This card doesn't create an open flame, but instead creates a ball of hot air, creating a strong updraft - perfect for use as a buffer.

Stiyl's calculations were precise, controlling the impact of the hot air mass just enough to offset the kinetic energy of the two people falling...

Unfortunately, he overlooked Kamijou Touma's combat awareness.

Even though he was screaming as he fell, Kamijou Touma was still keenly aware of the cards flying towards him.

Then he instinctively swung his right hand...

"Idiot!" Stiyl cursed when he saw this scene, and quickly shot out a new rune card to remedy the situation.

In the end, Steele's plan was successful.

The "hot air cushion" he created successfully prevented the two people from falling to their deaths.

Index was safe and sound, unharmed.

As for Kamijou Touma, in order to protect Index, he used his body as a cushion and landed first with the girl in his arms.

The injury wasn't serious, but it was still a sprained ankle, or perhaps some other more serious injury, but he wasn't a doctor and couldn't diagnose it himself - compared to being smashed into a pulp, this injury wasn't serious.

After all, he fell from the seventh floor, so he was thankful that only his legs were injured. There was no way Kamijou Touma would complain so much.

After surviving the disaster, Kamijou Touma even felt like his luck had finally changed.

But in fact, if he had not just knocked away Steele's first rune card, he would have been able to land safely without any harm.

Kamijou Touma fell into a semi-comatose state with a small sense of happiness...

After all, he acted as a cushion for Index, and Kamijou Touma suffered a slight concussion.
