Momo gently stroked Best's cat ears and silver hair. Best's braids had come undone, and her wet hair clung to her body, the ends of which had been dyed white.

Not only that, Best's body was also almost half white and half red. Looking at Best, who was covered in sweat and red and white, Mo Mo carefully picked up Best, who was still connected to him, and walked towards the bathroom.

The warm water cleansed their bodies and restored their somewhat weary spirits. Throughout, Best stared at Momo with bright eyes, as if trying to etch Momo into her heart forever.

"What," Mo Mo smiled slightly, "are you afraid I'll forget you?"

Upon hearing this, Best's cat ears twitched, and a thin layer of mist appeared in her eyes. Feeling the constant trembling and compression emanating from Best's body, Mo Mo understood the excitement Best was experiencing.

"Time... is almost up."

Best's voice was a little hoarse as he said, "According to the deal, you will soon lose all your memories of me and completely forget me, while I will remember you."

Best spoke slower and slower, as if an invisible hand had gripped her heart, making it hard for her to breathe.

At this moment, Best Red World Demon King's power seemed to have no effect. She had completely transformed into a little girl, her mind and body completely possessed by Mo Mo, utterly imprinted with Mo Mo's traces, bound by Mo Mo's heavy shackles, a girl in love.

You will forget me.

Two tears fell, and this was at least a beginning. Trembling, Best lay on Momo's chest, his shoulders trembling, unable to utter another word.

"You'll forget me soon..."

265 Dominoes, what are you waiting for!

"Yes!"

Momo sighed softly, not denying Best's words, because this was a deal between the two of them. It was this deal that dispelled Best's concerns and made Best start trying to become Momo's family.

However, seeing Best sobbing, Mo Mo naturally wouldn't do nothing. He gently patted Best's back and said, "But we have another agreement, don't you trust me?"

Best and Momo had another agreement, which completely swayed Best towards Momo and made Best willing to open her heart to Momo.

Furthermore, if Momo can truly do this, then Best will agree to Momo's request, giving up his identity as the Crimson World Demon King and his life in the Crimson World, and following Momo without any regrets.

Whether this can be achieved or not depends on Momo's performance in the future.

Hearing this, Best looked up, tears blurring her vision. Best naturally wouldn't forget the other promise Momo had made to her, but... could that promise possibly be fulfilled?

Soon, Momo will lose all memories of Best, including the memories of being with Best as family. This is already an unsolvable problem for Best. Memories are the foundation of any relationship; if even those memories disappear, what will become of their promise?

In the dim light, Best began to despair, and despair pulled her body and mind deeper and deeper into darkness, where she could not see a glimmer of light or hope.

If I had known it would turn out like this, if I had known it would be this heartbreaking and painful, why couldn't I have just agreed to Mo Mo's request back then? Why couldn't I have made up my mind to leave with Mo Mo?

Crimson World... Crimson World is indeed Best's hometown, but Best in Crimson World has no good impression of it at all; no one there really cares about her.

Although the situation has changed—for reasons even Best herself is unaware of—the Crimson World beings have become friendly towards her, but this friendliness is merely that—friendliness. This friendliness doesn't mean they genuinely like Best; rather, it's a necessary gesture towards her.

In contrast, Best experienced the warmth of family with Momo, a comforting feeling that captivated him. Now, all of that will fade away as Momo's memories disappear.

For Best, the short ten days or so felt like a dream.

If given another chance, Best would definitely choose to make this dream a reality, a reality that is always warm.

"I believe you!"

Best wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, forced a somewhat awkward smile, and said, "Momo, don't say anything, just kiss me. At least for now, I want to stay by your side!"

"But we don't have much time left to prepare..."

"It's okay, it'll be quick, just once..."

Her small lips met Mo Mo's lips, licking the familiar taste that she was so enamored with. Mo Mo naturally wouldn't refuse Best's initiative, because she knew that this was Best trying to leave her with her last memory.

……

"Looks like you're all ready."

Rami pulled down her top hat and looked at the two people walking out of the villa hand in hand, her eyes filled with a hint of confusion and doubt.

He knew nothing about the agreement between Momo and Best, so Rami had no idea what Momo was planning, whether he intended to take Best away, or whether he had already chosen to give up.

However, seeing Best's dejected expression and bloodshot eyes, Rami shook his head slightly. So, Momo was really planning to give up?

Although this disappointed Rami somewhat, it was within his expectations. The current administrator seemed to be a newcomer, lacking sufficient and powerful forces. It was understandable that he had no way to deal with the SOS Brigade, which was extremely hostile to him.

However, this is a bit tough on Best. It's obvious that Best has really fallen for him. If Momo can't come up with a solution to everything, Rami can't help but label Momo as a conman.

However, Rami pondered for a few seconds and didn't intend to do anything unnecessary. He didn't have a deep relationship with Best to begin with, and since he hadn't stood up for Best when she suffered in the past, what right did Rami have to interfere in Best's own love life now?

"Perhaps ending like this is not a bad choice!"

In the end, Rami could only console himself with a sigh.

“And another thing,” Rami turned to look at the spiky-haired man beside him, “you’re asking to take this ordinary boy back to his original world?”

Seeing this, Touma Kamijou quickly answered, "Ah, it's my request, sir. I have things I must do over there, and people I'm worried about, so please let me go!"

Touma Kamijou clasped his hands together in a pleading gesture. Rami stared at Touma for a few seconds and said, "This is just a small favor for us, but you must promise that you will not affect our plans in any way. Young man, I have sensed the power residing in your right hand."

Upon hearing this, Touma Kamijou was stunned. He scratched his head and thought for a few seconds before his expression hardened. He said, "I promise. I'm not here to interfere with you. On the contrary, I think that for them, becoming ordinary people without power is a rare kind of happiness."

In Touma Kamijou's mind, a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl wearing an eyepatch appeared. Although she probably didn't even know him in this world, Touma Kamijou clearly remembered their promise at this moment.

Even if... my future with her is completely changed, I will still make sure she finds her own happiness!

"Slap, slap, slap!"

Rami clapped his hands and said, "Not bad eyesight and awareness. Without a doubt, you are also a great person with a great will. If you have the opportunity in the future, perhaps you can become a member of the Flame Haze and fight alongside us."

"Flame Haze?"

Rami ignored the bewildered Touma Kamijou and turned to Best, saying, "Do we still need to say goodbye? If I'm not mistaken, there won't be any peace over there. I can give you a few more minutes."

Upon hearing this, Best shook his head and said hoarsely, "Let's go!"

Under Touma's astonished gaze, the two began to weave the Freedom Technique. Before long, a circular portal gradually appeared, and then the center of the portal opened, revealing a huge chasm within.

Let's go!

Before Touma could react, Rami had already grabbed him and thrown him out. Touma screamed in pain as the portal collapsed the instant he passed through it. However, there seemed to be a pulling force from the outside of the portal to the inside. At this moment, Touma was essentially on the boundary between the inside and outside of Academy City, so he was pulled out directly.

Subsequently, Rami re-established the portal, and the three of them, including Momo, easily walked out of the portal, out of the isolated Academy City, and into the outside of Academy City.

"Where is this place? Why is it a lake?"

As soon as Mo Mo stepped out the door, he immediately heard Touma Kamijou's scream. He looked around and was also startled by the scene before him.

Kamijou Touma fell into the water, which appeared to be over ten or twenty kilometers wide, with towering cliffs reaching several kilometers high at the edge of the water in the distance.

"This is……"

Mo Mo frowned, then realized where he was.

This is where Academy City disappeared.

It wasn't just Academy City that was stripped away, but also the land several kilometers below the surface of Academy City. This turned the original location of Academy City into a huge pit, enough for groundwater to gush out and form a huge lake.

Seeing this, Mo Mo smiled wryly. Was this a little surprise before the big event began?

What happened next was predictable, even without Mo Mo's guess.

The sudden disappearance of the once enormous Academy City, even if people around the world have forgotten its existence, the loss of hundreds of square kilometers of land is undoubtedly a major event that will shock the world.

Such a major event will definitely attract the attention of the magic faction, and may even draw the attention of some very important figures.

Mo Mo had just thought of this when figures in the distance had already moved to his side in their own ways—some flying, some teleporting, and some riding the waves. Mo Mo looked at the somewhat familiar figures and couldn't help but purse his lips.

"It looks like a bigger scene than I imagined. Has everyone come? The Anglican Church, the Roman Catholic Church, the Russian Orthodox Church, and various magical societies... That makes sense. It seems that the world has already noticed the anomaly here and has issued a warning to them in some form."

While Mo Mo was surprised, Touma Kamijou, who was still swimming in the water to avoid drowning, was also stunned. He stared blankly at the girl he cared about most, the leader of the mischievous magic society.

The girl frowned as she looked at Mo Mo, seemingly sensing something. At this moment, Rami explained, "I have temporarily concealed our presence with my power of existence. Everything is about to begin. Don't worry, we won't need to deal with the powerful forces here. That's not our job."

After saying that, Rami looked at Best, who nodded, put his hands together, and a surge of gray flames erupted from his body, shooting into the sky, breaking through space, and disappearing into a sliver of space.

Such strange power shifts immediately alerted the high-level magic users, and many were already preparing for battle.

Unfortunately, what happened next completely exceeded their expectations.

"Aa ...

"Dodo, dodo, dodo, what are you still doing? Why aren't we starting yet!"

"Yes, Doctor! The inter-world teleportation array is activated!"

266 An incredibly powerful collision

The guy named Domino had a distinctly mechanical voice, and what was most astonishing was that, like the other somewhat frantic voice from before, it made no attempt to conceal its presence.

The sheer volume of the sound made one wonder if the two people had used some kind of amplification equipment to deliberately let everyone hear their voices and know their location.

Of course, what surprised everyone the most, and even worried the characters on the magic side of the A Certain Magical Index world, was what those two voices said.

Interdimensional teleportation array!

Although no one knows exactly what an interdimensional teleportation array is, just from the name alone, its function is enough to make everyone wary.

Is this... a cross-world invasion war?

Some people couldn't wait to make a move, but after careful observation and exploration, they were surprised to find that although the sound could be heard, they still couldn't find any trace of the enemy.

Reality left them no room for discussion or reflection. As soon as their voices fell, a tremendous tremor suddenly came from the sky.

Clap!

A sound like shattering glass echoed in everyone's minds, but it was merely a hallucination. This hallucination arose because cracks suddenly appeared in the once clear, azure sky.

The sky is supposed to be formless, but now it seems as if the sky above everyone's heads has become a false glass dome, and this dome has been smashed open by a tremendous force, creating huge cracks. Behind those dark cracks, strange and wonderful colors seem to shimmer.

However, that wasn't the end of it. Immediately following was another huge impact, and the sky, which was already full of cracks, shattered completely. A huge black shadow fell from the sky.

"That is!"

Everyone stared intently at the dark shadow falling from the sky. What could possibly shatter the heavens, open a mysterious passage, and possess such terrifying power?

As the enormous black shadow plummeted, flames shot out from its base, and then, to everyone's astonishment, it regained its balance. At this moment, everyone finally saw its appearance clearly; it was obviously a strange-looking large machine.

Almost everyone on the magic side frowned. What exactly was this strange machine? How could it have such powerful strength? They couldn't sense any magical fluctuations from it at all.
