"Um, did we say something wrong, meow?" Tsuchimikado pretended to be apologetic.
"It's alright, Muzuki." Touma Kamijou said directly, "Little girl, this is common. Isn't it often in manga? Don't worry about it, it'll be fine in a couple of days."
Wuyue observed the behavior of these guys. She was inwardly annoyed, but outwardly pretended to be worried. "No, I'm still a little worried. It's so late, I'll go take her home." With that, she chased after them.
"Hahahaha!"
"Operation a success!"
"Looks like we've broken up another couple."
Only after the other party's figure had completely disappeared did Tsuchimikado and the others laugh without restraint.
"It's not that simple," the blue-haired girl with the earring concluded. "Breaking them up is probably impossible. That little girl doesn't seem to be someone who can be easily defeated by setbacks."
"But it's enough to give that Mugetsu guy a hard time," Kamijou Touma said with a wicked grin.
"I'm really looking forward to it. Will there be a domestic violence scene later?" Tsuchimikado said with a smug expression.
"How about we go and take a look?" Kamijou Touma suggested.
The three of them quickly reached a consensus again. They stood up cheerfully, ready to leave the restaurant. But just then, a waiter in a uniform approached them.
"Check, please." Suddenly realizing something, the blue-haired woman with the earring said, "Wait, didn't Wuyue pay? What happened to treating us...?"
"Damn it, he tricked me again." Touma Kamijou suddenly realized. "This guy obviously did it on purpose."
"How much is it in total?" Tsuchimikado asked calmly.
"Thank you for your patronage. The total is 100,000 yen." The waiter casually stated a price that was clearly astronomical for a high school student.
One hundred thousand?!
Kamijou, Tsuchimikado, and the blue-haired guy were all shocked by the price. "How can it cost so much? Is your food made of gold?"
"Sir, you don't need much food," the waiter said casually. "But your companion ordered a special extra-spicy pastry before leaving. It's worth ninety thousand."
Holy crap!
"No way..."
"What a misfortune..."
The three members of the Kamijou group in the restaurant all slumped forward in a dejected posture. Mugetsu, who had tricked them, wasn't in much better spirits either. Looking at the indifferent Misaka Mikoto before him, he felt a faint sadness.
"Well, actually they have nothing to do with me." Wuyue felt it was better to explain.
"You have nothing to do with me, so why did you chase after me?" Misaka Mikoto's face was sour, and she didn't seem happy at all because of Mugetsu's explanation.
"Well, your emotions are written all over your face." Wuyue scratched her head helplessly and stepped forward. "Actually, I don't care about size or anything like that."
"Hmph! What does that have to do with me?" Misaka Mikoto raised her head and said arrogantly, "Besides, I just haven't developed yet. Later, I'll grow bigger."
"Yes, yes, yes." Wuyue stepped forward and picked up the paper bag in her hand. "Want some? That shop's specialty, super spicy pastries."
"Spicy pastries?" Misaka Mikoto was shocked. "What a bizarre combination."
"Won't you try some?" Wuyue took a piece from inside and popped it into her mouth. "It tastes pretty good."
Misaka Mikoto ultimately couldn't resist the temptation and accepted the food offered to her. Eating spicy food in this sweltering heat was quite a unique experience.
"Summer vacation is almost here, what are your plans?" After a moment of silence, Misaka Mikoto asked.
"Well, I guess he just stays home playing games when he's bored. Or maybe he does some research when he's bored." Wu Yue thought for a moment and said, "When he has free time, he might teach some younger people. Or maybe he might spend time with his sister."
"You have a younger sister?" Misaka Mikoto turned her head.
"Hmm, she's very cute." Wuyue chuckled softly, changing the subject, "What about you? Aren't you planning to go home for summer vacation?"
"I don't want to go back." Misaka Mikoto waved her hand and said, "I've recently figured out a new technique. Let's practice it sometime."
"You want to fight me again?" Wuyue sighed helplessly and said, "Spare me."
"What kind of attitude is that?!" Misaka Mikoto looked at him unhappily and said, "How about this, if you beat me... I'll agree to be your real girlfriend, okay?"
Chapter 686: The Absolute Ability Project
What the hell? Do I look like the kind of person who would be tempted?
In the dark alleyway, Mugetsu was lost in thought. He looked up at the gloomy sky, then let out a heavy sigh. It was regrettable; in the end, he had succumbed to temptation… no, it was that damned system that forced him to accept the temptation. He had fulfilled his promise to Misaka Mikoto.
This feeling was truly unbearable. It was as if I was so captivated by someone's beauty that I couldn't wait to accept their challenge. Seeing the knowing look on Misaka Mikoto's face at the end, Mugetsu felt a pang of sadness.
He wasn't a lustful person. Even though Misaka Mikoto was indeed very cute, and Mugetsu liked her personality, she was still just a child. Her body hadn't even developed yet. If he made a move on her, wouldn't that confirm his perverted identity? If word got out, it would have a very bad impact on his reputation.
Wuyue felt a pang of sadness. However, the thought that she had nothing left to tarnish her reputation intensified that sadness.
Just as he was reflecting on the passing of time, a silver-white 543 minivan suddenly appeared on the horizon in the distance and stopped directly in front of him.
Squeak.
The car door opened.
Wuyue took two steps forward and got into the car with perfect understanding.
Chi Chi Chi.
The sound of tires rubbing filled the air. The van sped off into the distance. Several tens of minutes later, it stopped next to a secret research institute.
"Master." Stepping out of the car, Wuyue saw Aragaki Chizuru, with her purple hair, standing there respectfully.
“I already told you not to use that title anymore.” Wuyue sighed and said, “Although we are superior and subordinate, we are not in a master-servant relationship. You just need to do your job well for me.”
"Everything I have belongs to my master." Chizuru Aragaki kept her head down, her attitude extremely humble.
"Never mind." Wuyue sighed and led her into the laboratory. "Is the plan almost complete?"
“Yes, Master.” Chizuru Aragaki nodded and said, “Six directors have already agreed, and the two abstentions and two dissenting votes are no longer of any use.”
"Hmm, is it according to my distribution method?" Wuyue's gaze swept over the girls cultivated in bottles and jars. They were the main supporting characters of this plan—the Misaka Sisters.
“Yes, Master,” Chizuru Aragaki confirmed.
After precise calculations by the Academy City supercomputer "Tree Diagram Designer", it was determined that only Accelerator, ranked first among the seven Level 5 espers in Academy City, has the potential to evolve into an Absolute Level 5 esper, but it would require over 250 years of general training to achieve this.
Since there is no way to enable a person to live for 250 years, the "tree diagram designer" found another method, which is to use actual combat to promote the growth of abilities. That is, to prepare specific battlefields and let the battle proceed according to plan in order to control the direction of "ability growth in actual combat".
According to the calculations of the "tree diagram designer", if Accelerator is prepared to kill the Railgun 128 times in 128 different battlefields, he can evolve into an absolute power user.
However, since it was impossible to prepare 128 Cabb Railguns, the experiment targeted the "Sisters" in the "Ability User Mass Production Project" that was being carried out at the same time. Since the mass-produced "Sisters" did not have the same abilities as the base Railguns at level 1 - that is, level 2, according to the calculation results of the "Tree Diagram Designer", as long as 20,000 battlefields and 20,000 "Sisters" were prepared, the same goal could be achieved.
Of course, all of this is just nonsense.
Level 6 is impossible for an ordinary human to reach unless they are beings like Wuyue who possess the power of laws. The so-called absolute power user is nothing but empty talk.
Its true purpose is Aleister's ambition!
In order to send these "Misaka Sisters" out of Academy City in a natural way, this guy deliberately destroyed the "Mass Production of Ability Users Project" first, and then launched the Absolute Ability User Project through Kihara Gensei.
All of these were feints. His real purpose was to send "Misaka Sisters" to partner organizations in various Academy Cities around the world, so that the entire world would be enveloped in an AI diffusion field.
The "Imaginary Number District - Five Elements Agency," originally existing only within Academy City, will expand to the entire world. This will create a power hierarchy independent of the existing system—an artificial celestial realm—ultimately aiming to destroy all magical effects.
Wuyue, of course, wouldn't stand idly by and watch all this happen. He didn't care at all whether the magic world would be destroyed. But his sisters were someone he absolutely had to protect. Not only protect them, but ensure they would never be in any danger again. This was a huge undertaking, but fortunately, Wuyue not only had the means, but also the strength and influence to do so.
The research institute controlled by Chizuru Aragaki is the prototype and origin of the mass production plan. Here, not only can enhanced versions of the "Sisters" be sent to various sub-laboratories, but it can also create an extreme emergency response mechanism. With Accelerator's (Yuriko's) cooperation, her experiments would never harm any of the "Sisters."
Text 687: Message from Aleister
After confirming the condition of the younger sisters in the laboratory and adjusting the mass production plan and allocation, Mugetsu and Chizuru Aragaki went to a secluded room where no one was around.
"Is there anything you're not used to lately?" Wu Yue asked casually, sitting down on the sofa and looking at the woman opposite her.
"Just a little bit." As she spoke, Aragaki Chizuru suddenly underwent an unbelievable transformation. The fabric of her clothes rippled like waves. In a short while, the ripples subsided, and she seemed to have transformed into a completely different girl. "But I'll try my best."
With gray-brown hair, flawless white skin, and blue-green eyes, she seemed to have become more than ten years younger. No, it shouldn't be said that she was younger. To be precise, she had regained her original appearance.
Just as Misaki Shokuhou said, Chizuru Aragaki had long since become a different person. However, she still used Chizuru Aragaki's identity, resources, and even memories.
Her name is Yoko Asami. A level 3 esper, her ability is appearance manipulation. She can mimic anyone's voice and appearance. Furthermore, Chizuru Aragaki is extremely suspicious and unlikely to open up to anyone. Therefore, only a psychic like Misaki Shokuhou could see through all of this.
This Yoko Asami was originally Chizuru Aragaki's student. Early on, because of her abilities, Chizuru took a liking to her and brought her under her wing. However, after a few years, Chizuru couldn't sense any further improvement in her abilities.
Its skill level was only LV2! LV2 was practically useless in the eyes of researchers. Therefore, Chizuru Aragaki decisively abandoned it. She even dissected it alive because she found it a hindrance, keeping it submerged in nutrient solution, making it a veritable living dead. It wasn't until she met Mugetsu that she was given a new lease on life.
Taking advantage of Chizuru Aragaki's falling out with Mugetsu, the latter released her, thus completing a perfectly executed revenge.
That's right, the real Chizuru Aragaki was already dead. Yoko Asami had brutally disemboweled her. Her death was extremely gruesome. Not only that, but her body was also burned by Muzuki's Amaterasu. From then on, she vanished from the face of the earth.
Of course, apart from the two of them, no one else knew about this. Even the all-knowing Aleister probably didn't know what happened back then. Because Wuyue possessed the ability to block "aerial loops"! And his blocking wasn't the helpless, violent way of unplugging a device, since that would alert people.
His shielding, simply put, should be considered another form of illusion. The opponent could indeed obtain related images from the "Airborne Recurve." But these images were manipulated by Wuyue. Or rather, they were what he wanted the opponent to see.
"There's no need to push yourself so hard." Looking at the girl in front of her, Wuyue said calmly, "The plan has progressed very smoothly to this point. There's no need to maintain Aragaki Chizuru's condition as before."
"Hmm." Yoko Asami nodded and said softly, "By the way, Master. The chairman tested me before. He brought a lot of material about gene sequences and asked me to give him detailed insights."
"Oh? That guy seems to have figured something out." Mugetsu wasn't surprised. As the chairman of Academy City, an old monster who had lived for over a hundred years, it wasn't surprising that the other party noticed something amiss. "It's alright. Even if that guy knows you're not the original Aragaki Chizuru, he would never do anything. To him, the entire Academy City is just a tool to complete his plans. Neither the board members nor the ability users are as important to him as pawns."

"Is he very strong?" Yoko Asami asked curiously.
“In every sense, he is indeed very strong.” Wuyue nodded, confirming, “I’m afraid he could even suppress a true level 6. But don’t worry, his strength is only relative.”
That's right. Even if Aleister were to return to his peak condition, Wuyue was confident she could handle him. As for why she didn't directly attack him to resolve the problem once and for all, it was because of the "angel" behind Aleister—Aivas.
0
It is not an angel described in the Bible. What kind of power does it possess? What methods does it employ?
Wu Yue had no way of knowing this information. It was precisely because it was unknown that he had no feasible countermeasures. Similarly, he couldn't act rashly.
"Any news about Kihara Gensei, whom I asked you to keep an eye on?" Just because Mugetsu can't take action against Aleister for the time being doesn't mean he'll let the others off the hook.
Especially Kihara Gensei. This Academy City is a melting pot of evil and darkness. A super villain whose hatred level is arguably "number one," Mugetsu intends to send him packing.
“He seems to be researching a new topic lately.” After a moment of silence, Yoko Asami replied, “It seems to be something like an experiment on ability crystals.”
"Is that so?" Wuyue tapped the table rhythmically with her left hand, raising an eyebrow slightly. "I see. It must be that incident. Just keep an eye on it from the sidelines; don't get involved for now."
Chapter 688: The Helpless Moonless Night
The sun was shining brightly in the early morning, and a gentle breeze was blowing.
School District 7, Forest Park.
Wuyue leaned against a huge tree branch, gazing down. There, a girl with long, straight black hair, dressed in a blue and white sailor uniform, was practicing her slashing techniques with a wooden sword in hand.
