"Oh? What else could possibly make someone like you so concerned?"

"It's something that's just around the corner."

My gaze was fixed on a certain spot in the window.

Aleister narrowed his eyes slightly.

"The highest bishop of the British Puritan Church, the great devil Collonzon."

"Right now, that guy is in London, England, and he exists in a state where he knows everything that has happened so far..."

————————————————————————————————————

Meanwhile, in London, England.

Inside her room was a beautiful young woman with a stunningly gorgeous figure.

…This is the direct appearance in everyone's eyes.

In reality, she might be an ancient monster who has lived for countless years.

"Academy City...?"

Laura Stewart.

His true identity is the Great Demon Kolonzon, who represents the spread and protection of the Abyss.

She stared at the world map before her with a complicated expression.

On the map, marked is the land called Academy City.

What she was worried about was not the military strength on this land.

But someone else.

"That guy over there is called Accelerator... and he's not the only one with this kind of abnormality..."

There are just too many problems.

Accelerator, and... that guy named Kakine Teitoku.

Their sudden transformation completely shattered all his preconceived notions about Academy City, and...

Now, there is an even greater threat from outside this world.

"...This is no joke."

Even for a great demon of considerable power, this still requires utmost attention.

Chapter 747 The Cooking Competition of the Ability Users

"We have to find a way."

He has surpassed the level 5 superpower user realm, making him arguably the first person in the world to reach the level of an absolute power user (Level 6), or even... the first person far above that.

And, although he still acts as a Level 5 esper, he has also transcended the realm of Level 5 and stepped into the second level, a vast boundary called Holism.

The threat posed by these two individuals has far exceeded the core of Kronzun's original plan.

Rather, in the original plan, she probably only needed to be slightly wary of the first one, while the second one wouldn't even get involved in her plan.

But now it seems completely different.

"Those two guys, trying to face anything in my current state... that's an extremely difficult problem."

Given Kronzun's current state, he hasn't even broken the contract binding him.

To say that you want to win a head-on battle against those two.

This is indeed an extremely difficult problem.

Especially Accelerator; if he were simply using the power of a Devil Fruit user, that would be fine.

But if even the true form of those pure gray wings is unknown, and their mere appearance is enough to tear apart the world, including all phases... and even the universe.

Let alone Kronzon, even if all the demons in the world regained their full power, they probably wouldn't be able to defeat him.

Besides these two people, the problem isn't limited to just these two.

Kronzun knew that at this moment, outside of this world, there was another force still eyeing her world with covetous intent.

Although I don't know what the other party's purpose is, but—

Given Kronzun's strength and status, she is someone who retains all memories from both the past and present timelines.

Because of this, she also knew exactly how those guys invaded this world in the previous timeline.

That was not an existence she could easily defeat on her own.

"...At the very least, I need to make sure my strength is fully restored first."

Without even the most basic guarantees, all of this is just empty talk.

To break free from this loathsome contract that binds you, you must do something you have no choice but to do.

Kill the human named Aresta Crowley.

"That guy is currently staying in Academy City, and there are quite a few worrying monsters in that base."

Besides the first and second guys who gave him the most headaches, even ImagineBreaker was among them.

Although Coron didn't believe she would be threatened by that kind of guy, given the sudden changes in Accelerator and Kakine Teitoku, she found it hard to imagine what kind of changes would occur to the even more unique Imagine Breaker in this world.

…Based on this analysis, the plan to directly attack Academy City has to be abandoned.

but.

This does not mean that Kronzun is already in a desperate situation.

"There's no other way, let's use another approach."

wow-

The great demon threw the chalk he had been playing with onto the table and then got up.

She slowly walked to the deepest part of the room.

It was a dark room, like a cellar, where you couldn't see your own fingers.

"Although this seems very passive, it is undoubtedly the most appropriate course of action at present."

She whispered her plans for the future.

“That guy Aleister will definitely come to London, England, no matter what. There are things he has to deal with, and they are also matters of lifelong grudges.”

"In that case..."

Ever since.

Kronzun then turned his gaze to the deeper part of the room.

A damp shadow emerged from within.

"It's about time for you to make your appearance."

wow-

A sound like splashing water came from the air.

However, there was no water in the room, and the reason for the sound was simply due to some source of the problem.

The shadow that appeared at the deepest part of the room.

It is a being with inhuman features all over its body.

"...Hehehehe."

It was covered in tentacles like a jellyfish and its body was wrapped in clothes that looked like newspaper.

His eyes revealed evil intentions.

It is an existence with the same identity as the Great Demon.

That is--

"demon".

"Kill Aleister Crowley...that's the job, isn't it?"

——————————————————————————————————————

A familiar city.

However, despite the familiarity, Accelerator doesn't feel any nostalgia for this place.

Because, in his view, it was a detestable, two-faced city…

"...If I had known, I should have wiped out this boring idol career completely along with it."

After leaving the windowless building, Accelerator returned to the apartment building and heard from Hatsune Miku what the higher-ups wanted him to do.

With Christmas just around the corner, these idols among the ability users will become even busier.

According to higher-ups, it seems that arrangements will be made within the next three days.

"Ah, sorry to keep you waiting~"

A cute girl named Hatsune Miku walked out of the shopping street.

As a world-class popular idol, the girl avoided other people's attention and went straight into this shopping street to shop recklessly.

However, some of these points left Accelerator speechless.

For example, even though she is a world-class idol with an astronomical amount of money in her bank account, she still uses her own card to buy things.

Although Accelerator also had an astronomical amount of money in his account, he couldn't understand the point of doing so.

"Are you daydreaming?"

The voice came from in front of him, and Accelerator snapped back to reality.

Hatsune Miku stood in front of him, holding a large pile of things in her hands.

"you…"

"Hehehe~ How do you think this outfit looks?"

The clothes she wore when she left home have been changed. Now, the girl is wearing a light blue and white dress that resembles a long skirt.

Honestly, wearing clothes like this in the dead of winter in December would probably make a normal person feel very cold.

But the girl didn't seem to care about any of this.

"Here, this is a flavor that I specially chose for you."

With a large number of shopping bags in her left hand, Hatsune Miku is holding a huge ice cream cone in her right hand.

You can tell from the aroma that it has the flavor of coffee beans.

Accelerator immediately glanced at her with a strange look.

"...What's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that all of a sudden?"

"What's wrong with you? Who would think of eating ice cream in this awful season?"

"That's outrageous! Why can't we eat ice cream in winter?!"

Upon hearing these words, Hatsune Miku immediately showed a displeased expression, even puffing out her cheeks to indicate her dissatisfaction.

"Good food doesn't have a time limit! You can enjoy it no matter the season, that's what makes it good food!"

"Okay, okay, say whatever you want."

Accelerator then turned his attention to her hands.

That's such a big ice cream cone... It would be a stretch to say that Hatsune Miku could eat the whole thing by herself.

"Can one person eat that much?"

"Hmm, of course I can't eat it all."

"Then why did you buy such a large portion?"

Hehe~ But Hatsune Miku didn't answer; instead, she approached with a grin.

He then held out the ice cream cone towards Accelerator.

"Ah~ Open your mouth! Ah~"
