"These guys were planning to forcibly capture Misaka and the others, probably because they thought we were all girls. But before Misaka could even make a move, the dragon over there had already burned them all to the ground."

Accelerator turned his gaze to the dragon next to Hatsune Miku, who seemed to have summoned it earlier.

"Ah, this child is just a summoned creature."

Seemingly sensing the gaze from this direction, Hatsune Miku snapped out of her daze, waved her hand, and the enormous figure, stretching over a hundred meters long, vanished instantly.

Welcome back!

"Ah."

Accelerator nodded directly to Hatsune Miku and said.

"It's all over."

He walked slowly to the people from Academy City and looked directly at them.

"What is your purpose?"

"Ah—? I, we—"

"Forget it, even if you don't tell me, I can guess what it is. It's just a bunch of utterly boring stuff."

Then, Accelerator made the simplest move.

He lowered his body and looked at them with an extremely calm gaze.

"I have something to tell you."

"What…?"

"Whether it's the final work or a side story, none of the sisters are allowed to be used anymore, and... you are absolutely not allowed to continue to be involved in anything related to the Third Manufacturing Project."

"Let go of those guys who have had similar experiences to me, and make sure they never go any deeper into this shitty darkness again."

He unilaterally declared all of this.

“If I discover any further signs of this, I will ruthlessly pull out all your fangs, whether it’s dozens or hundreds of times.”

"Remember this."

This is a dialogue that transcends good and evil, and does not exist above either of the two positions.

He unilaterally declared all of this, being the number one in Academy City.

"This is not negotiation, not a proposal, not a plea, not an agreement, not a compromise, and not surrender."

"—This is a victory, you bastards!"

Boom! Boom! Boom! The final sound exploded outwards.

With a simple movement, Accelerator blasted away all the people lying on the ground in front of him, sending them flying hundreds of meters away in a powerful hurricane, but without killing them.

He had good control over the other party's strength, so those guys would make sure to relay the message back to Academy City for him.

What about the rest?

It's very simple.

"Let's go back."

He turned around and looked at the three girls behind him.

Let's go back to the city we should go back to no matter what.

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

The Third World War came to an end.

It seems the news of the end of the war came from Russia. In any case, the battle that began against Academy City has come to a complete end.

Then, people were very puzzled about everything about the war, because the war was completely beyond people's expectations.

Some say that angels appeared during the war.

Some people say that floating island-like areas have appeared in the sky.

Some people say they saw the sky turn golden at the end, and even saw white wings blocking something.

All sorts of extraordinary things were passed down among the people, but those who actually returned from the battlefield remained silent, and neither the media nor anyone else could get a single piece of information out of them.

But this is nothing to Accelerator.

Everything is over, and everyone he needed has returned.

The Last Order has recovered, Hatsune Miku has also regained her health, and then, in the middle of all this, this guy appeared.

"what?"

"Hehehe, so you're actually planning to bring Misaka back with you?"

"Do you really want to be taken back by those guys in Academy City? I don't care, it's your own choice anyway."

Right now, Accelerator is driving the car, with the side story character and Last Order in the back seat, and Hatsune Miku happily humming a song on his right.

Everything went so smoothly and perfectly.

Accelerator got everything he wanted in life, and everything he wanted to protect.

As for how to define these people, Last Order was considered his true family, while Hatsune Miku... to be honest, he himself couldn't figure out how to define her.

It could be a lover, or it could be family, but none of that matters.

For the top leader of Academy City, it is enough to understand that they are all people who need 'protection'.

They had now entered Academy City and soon arrived at their destination—the apartment where Yomikawa Aiho lived.

"They actually came back..."

"This is where you live? It's really shabby."

"It's not shabby at all! This is where Yomikawa and Yoshikawa live!" Misaka Misaka couldn't help but protest!

Ignoring the various arguments coming from behind, Accelerator got out of the car.

"How about it?"

"Huh? What do you mean, how?"

That's exactly what I meant!

The girl beside him laughed happily and couldn't help but grab Accelerator's hand.

"Completely accepting everyone and expressing goodwill to everyone must feel really good, right?"

"..."

Accelerator pursed his lips slightly, then said nothing, neither confirming nor denying.

"Hey...it's about time you let go, isn't it?"

"Hehe~ I'm shy!"

"Stop spouting nonsense... When did you become this mischievous?"

"Because I'm really happy right now. Girls can do anything when they're happy!"

What a weirdo.

After categorizing Hatsune Miku as one of the weirdos, Accelerator sighed and headed straight for the door.

He placed his hand on the doorknob.

"..."

At that moment, a strange feeling enveloped him.

"What's wrong...?"

Hatsune Miku walked over in surprise and couldn't help but look at Accelerator and ask.

"What happened?"

One-way did not reply.

In that instant, he couldn't help but frown, sensing a strange contrast in his surroundings, a feeling that didn't originate from any particular person or thing...

It felt like it was coming from the ends of the earth.

"No…nothing."

Perhaps I'm overthinking it.

Even if someone were watching him, it couldn't possibly be this bizarre. Accelerator shook his head decisively and walked straight into the room.

"...It's you guys!!"

Upon entering the room, Yomikawa Aiho and Yoshikawa Kikyo were immediately taken aback.

That's only natural, since Accelerator and the others had disappeared before, creating an unprecedented situation.

"Never mind... Anyway, it's good that you're back."

but.

Before Accelerator could say anything, Aiho Yomikawa was already smiling at them.

"Instead of all that, you should hurry up and get ready. Your rehearsal is coming up soon."

"…ah?"

He was stunned and stood there.

dress rehearsal?

"What the hell are you talking about?"

"That's right, it's rehearsal! You didn't forget because you were still half asleep, did you?"

Not only Accelerator, but even Hatsune Miku couldn't help but widen her eyes in surprise.

"—It's the idol rehearsal! Aren't you supposed to be a full-fledged idol tomorrow? How could you forget something like this!"

……ah?

Accelerator felt that Aiho Yomikawa was indeed speaking Japanese.

He could understand all the words, but he couldn't figure out what she was saying.

This is Academy City.

It is a city with a population of 2.3 million, most of whom are people with special abilities.

Then--

The world-renowned idol company, VOCALOID, has its Japanese branch located directly within Academy City.

The company, which brings together world-class idols like Hatsune Miku, also trains seven Level 5 espers from Academy City to become idols, enabling them to gain amplification of their abilities by leveraging the aggregation effect of the AIM diffusion field.

All of this has been going on for several years now.

This is common knowledge that everyone knows; it's the most ordinary common sense information.

Chapter 245 Fusion

"Wait...please wait a moment."

"What are you waiting for? Or are you really still half asleep? You've become like this since you came back from Russia."

"So please wait a moment!"

Accelerator felt like there might really be something wrong with his head.

In his memory, everything should have been normal until just a second ago.

However, the moment he opened the door, Aiho Yomikawa told him some shocking news.

I'm going to become an idol.

"Who made this decision?"

"What are you talking about... It was clearly your own decision in the first place."

"...You remember what happened during my time away from Academy City to Russia, and what happened during World War III, right?"

"I remember, didn't you tell me that yourself before?"
