But something even more terrifying happened.

Deep within the black wings, an unparalleled power, truly close to the essence, erupted.

boom----! ! !

The figure flew backward.

Struck by that force, Kanzaki Kaori performed a somersault-like motion, then plunged the blade in her hand into the ice to prevent herself from flying away.

"... "

Accelerator stopped in place, and the black wings behind him returned to a length of over one hundred meters.

Just now, the opponent unleashed an unprecedentedly terrifying power, directly severing a portion of his wing.

Fortunately, Accelerator's Black Wings can continuously unleash new power. As long as he can generate new emotions, they can be transformed into new motivation without limit.

"Just now... my Flash didn't work."

Kanzaki Kaori frowned as she looked ahead.

Just now, the true power of those black wings erupted from their deepest depths.

What's hidden on the surface is merely a partial force, but that force seems to have something different about it.

Kanzaki Kaori sensed the aura emanating from a god.

Because she possesses the physique of a saint with the identity of "Son of God," she can use a portion of the power equivalent to that of a god. However—the opponent's black wings seem to possess a similar property.

That was neither the power of angels nor the power of demons.

The sheer power of this immense force is something even a sage would be unable to handle.

Therefore, all Kanzaki Kaori could do was sever a portion of the black wings.

That force was so immense, so immense, that it was practically synonymous with "destruction."

It's likely that even searching the entire world wouldn't yield a single person capable of directly defending against the Blackwing's power.

However, that's not the most important thing.

"…Huh?"

Kanzaki Kaori raised her head.

She looked at the figure in front of Blackwing and couldn't help but widen her eyes.

“You, you are—?!”

"..."

Accelerator has already seen it.

Kellysa and the Beauty both came to Kanzaki Kaori's side, intending to take up arms and join her in attacking Accelerator.

But Kanzaki Kaori immediately stopped them.

"No, wait a moment..."

"What's wrong, Saint of the Orient? You wouldn't be hesitating in a place like this, would you?"

"is not what it means."

Kanzaki Kaori sheathed her Seven Heavens Blade and looked at her opponent again.

"This person should be someone who helped me in the past."

"…ha?"

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

About a few minutes later.

French and British soldiers ceased fighting for a simple reason.

As the most powerful warriors on the front lines, the saints, the women of the kingdom, and the second princesses all stopped what they were doing.

"so."

Accelerator looked at all of them and clicked his tongue in amazement.

"Why are your ship's shells hitting other ships?"

"...This is our fault."

Kanzaki Kaori expressed deep regret over the matter.

"We had no idea that other people would appear on the sea. The British had assumed from the beginning that there would only be French soldiers here, so this was indeed a poor consideration."

"Tsk."

Honestly, you can't really blame them.

Britain chose to attack the French soldiers from the sea because it was assumed that no ordinary people would be involved in the war at sea. But who would have thought that Accelerator could even operate on the sea?

Completely unaware of this, the cannonballs fired by the British ships eventually caused the surrounding area to explode, including the location where Accelerator and his companions were.

Simply put, it was all an accident.

"Tch, who would have thought that ordinary people would actually pass by on the sea!"

"What do you mean by 'ordinary person'? Do you really think someone with that level of strength could be considered an ordinary person?"

"...Whatever, at least in terms of status and position, right?"

Even though she said those words, for the Second Princess Kellysa, Accelerator's monstrous behavior just now made it impossible for her to categorize him as an ordinary person.

That is precisely why the others couldn't treat Accelerator the same way they would treat ordinary people.

The other party is someone from Academy City, and a powerful individual who can decide the situation on the battlefield single-handedly.

Everything he does and says will be one of the decisive factors on the battlefield.

however.

"not my business."

"what?"

A simple sentence left everyone stunned.

Accelerator waved his hand and said casually.

"War doesn't matter, whether it's France, Britain, or the guys from Academy City, it's all irrelevant."

"I never came to this place for any bullshit war, and I have no intention of getting involved in your boring and stupid things."

"So, that means..."

Under the somewhat surprised gaze of the Knight Commander, Accelerator simply turned around.

"Just as you have seen."

He had no intention of getting involved in the war.

Whether it's Academy City, France, or England, it's none of his business.

Accelerator didn't come to Russia for these kinds of nonsense things.

"You can do whatever you want from now on, just remember this: don't recklessly fire your cannons at innocent people nearby again."

"Oh, oh..."

"It's fine since it's someone like me this time, but if it were someone else, the consequences wouldn't be so easy, would they?"

Upon closer reflection, the only person capable of withstanding cannonballs from a ship unscathed is a monster like Accelerator.

If any other ordinary people were to pass through this area and be affected by the war, the chances of them dying innocently would be extremely high.

There may be sayings like 'war inevitably involves bloodshed,' but these things have nothing to do with Accelerator.

He simply couldn't stand watching it.

Even when he was in the shadows, he still tried his best to avoid letting his power affect innocent people.

This is the path he chose, having denigrated himself as a member of the evil party.

'A villainous party, huh?'

Speaking of which...

Walking alone on this icy sea, I found myself lost in thought, contemplating certain things.

Is it really necessary?

Simply walking the so-called path of evil and calling oneself an evil party.

Chapter 232 Extra Chapter: Individual

Originally, the British and French armies should have clashed in the distant Strait of Dover.

However, it seems that because of the outbreak of World War III, the two sides converged on the coastline near Russia, which was also the location of One Side Pass.

In fact, even after confirming that no more shockwaves from Britain and France would reach this area, Accelerator no longer intended to continue traveling there.

The area he was heading to was inside Russia. Staying on the periphery would indeed prevent him from being detected by the people of Academy City, but that wouldn't make any difference.

Once inside, it's inevitable that you'll be monitored by Academy City's supersonic fighter jets.

Therefore, it becomes difficult to move around after leaving the sea.

Why do I say that?

"..."

At this moment, Accelerator is walking slowly on the snow.

Having no choice but to give up his ride, he had to take the two people on the bus with him.

Last Order showed no signs of waking up, leaving Accelerator with no choice but to carry her tightly in his free left hand as they walked.

However, the key issue is actually the situation on the right.

The twin-tailed girl walking beside Accelerator moved very slowly.

Although her legs were not seriously injured, she appeared very unsteady, and her beautiful face was deathly pale, completely devoid of her usual lively and charming aura.

The once incredibly energetic and kind-hearted girl has now been reduced to this miserable state.

Even walking was extremely difficult for him, and in this freezing winter weather, he was exhaling white mist from his mouth, looking very uncomfortable.

One-way stopped without hesitation.

"Huh...? What's wrong...?"

Hatsune Miku, speaking in a somewhat dejected tone, looked puzzled.

As Accelerator held Last Order in his left hand, he immediately grabbed his sleeve with his right.

"Wait a minute."

With an unyielding tone, Accelerator spoke directly to the girl.

Then, under the girl's somewhat surprised gaze, Accelerator took off his white winter coat without hesitation and wrapped it around Hatsune Miku's body.

The thick coat brought her a faint warmth.

This scene left Hatsune Miku stunned on the spot.

"Just keep walking."

Moreover, Accelerator did more than just do that.

He placed his free right hand on Hatsune Miku's shoulder, making it look like they were holding hands.

Faced with Hatsune Miku, who was almost unable to walk independently, Accelerator did not hesitate to help her walk together.

"Well, that..."

Hatsune Miku's tone became completely bewildered.

"I can walk alone without any problem, it's okay..."

"Stop spouting nonsense."

Accelerator had no intention of listening to what Hatsune Miku was saying; he simply held the girl's shoulder and carefully supported her.

"Listen carefully, I won't allow you to continue harming your body. If you don't even care about yourself, do you think you can ever get better? Do you understand?"
