One-way traffic

That was the decisive factor that could settle everything.

"Varied--?!"

"What is it, an elf?!"

Under the watchful eyes of many AST members, the tornado that descended from the sky exploded in all directions.

Among them was a very conspicuous figure.

That is an unforgettable shadow for all AST members.

"I said so."

The visitor spoke in an extremely lazy voice.

"Even though it has happened many times, you are still doing such stupid things now... You are truly hopeless."

"How... is this possible...?"

Led by Ryoko Kusakabe, all the AST members stood there dumbfounded.

What comes into view is whiteness that even a downpour cannot obscure.

White hair, red eyes.

And the aura of death that enveloped his entire body.

"Death...!!"

The opponent that AST least wanted to encounter has arrived here.

"Why, why is that kind of guy here?!"

"What should we do? If it's that monster, we have no chance of winning!"

Huh...?

Yoshino, who was in the back, couldn't help but look up. When she saw the strange thing in front of her, she was immediately shocked.

The white figure was extremely eye-catching.

Who is he?

"So elves are a social species after all? These guys! Do they get support if they get alone?!"

"What should we do? Please give instructions, Captain!"

what to do…?

What else could we do? That was, that was the Grim Reaper, whom we had fought countless times and could never defeat!

Even though they knew that the enemy in front of them was one they had to defeat no matter what, the AST members couldn't even bring themselves to go forward and fight.

No.

Boom! With a loud bang, another figure suddenly burst into the air.

"Hey, Origami!"

Ryoko Kusakabe couldn't help but shout, but it was too late to stop her.

After activating her lightsaber to maximum power, Origami Tobiichi made no attempt to conceal her killing intent.

The speed at which lightsabers are swung is even faster than that of crossbow bolts.

But Accelerator didn't even flinch.

Because there's simply no need for it.

Squeak-!

The emerald green light was distorted directly from the middle section.

No.

With a strange sound, the indestructible lightsaber shattered.

Just like a chemical light bulb breaking, Origami Tobiichi's expression immediately darkened, and she quickly reached for the turret she was holding at her waist.

The first-ranking reflection ensured his absolute dominance in strength.

"Stubborn and unyielding".

Before Tobiichi could finish her series of movements, a hand was already slapping her in front of her.

Thump—! With a dull thud, the person's body was sent flying.

Origami Tobiichi's body spun around like a top before slowly coming to a stop, leaving a bloody mark on her cheek.

"What a bunch of inflexible idiots! Boring, I've lost interest in playing hide-and-seek."

"Everyone, immediately activate your Free Domain!"

Without much hesitation, Ryoko Kusakabe immediately issued the order.

Then, the light exploded.

What is swirling around Accelerator is unimaginable.

Flames that seemed completely out of place amidst the surrounding storm.

As if the shadowy fire rising from the depths of hell, it directly formed a silver-red scythe that was much taller than his body.

"This is…?!"

"Could it be... an angel?!"

"That angel of Death actually wields a scythe..."

Is it fitting that he is called the Grim Reaper? In Accelerator's hand, the scythe of death, which seems to have been taken from the depths of hell, is always wreathed in inextinguishable hellfire.

He casually draped the sickle over his shoulder.

"I'm too tired to play these useless tricks anymore, all of you get out of here."

Then, Accelerator grabbed the handle of the scythe with one hand and swung it horizontally from right to left.

one strike.

It was just an ordinary strike, yet it directly stirred up a tornado-level or higher level of bombardment.

Even those who activated their random domains couldn't withstand the fiery storm; the powerful attack blasted everyone away.

When the smoke and dust dissipated again, those people were completely out of sight.

Accelerator pursed his lips and looked behind him.

Similarly, there is no trace of them left.

It seems that the elven girl has also disappeared from this world.

but.

One-way passage, letting the body slowly descend with gravity.

He arrived at a street alley below.

He put away the scythe named Nathos, walked to the entrance of the alley, and picked up something that had fallen to the ground.

A doll.

A white rabbit doll with cute bunny ears, one of its eyes is covered by a pirate-like cloth.

"It must belong to that guy from earlier."

Accelerator looked up at the still-rainy weather and put the plush toy into his pocket.

He also took out his phone.

"Hatsune, let's prepare to go back to that place called Fraxinus. We should at least tell them about the situation, otherwise it will be difficult to get any information later."

After a simple sentence, Accelerator hung up the phone and flew directly towards the area above the clouds.

During this process, he was still somewhat recalling the memories of the battle he had just fought.

It's not related to the ASTs that he easily defeated.

It's about the girl in the green dress that looks like a rabbit.

Chapter 369 The Reappearance of the Ice Sprite

This is the interior of the spaceship Fraxinus, located above the clouds.

Accelerator and Hatsune Miku reunited after everything was over and returned to the spaceship together.

"So, in the end, you haven't accomplished anything?"

"Well, you can't say that. The situation at the time was completely beyond my expectations!"

Itsuka Shido explained to Accelerator with an innocent look on his face.

"Well, judging from the situation at the time, I did make contact with that child... mouth, lips... but it was meaningless. After the contact, I didn't successfully seal her power like I did when I sealed Tohka. Even I don't understand it myself."

"Could it be that the so-called ability to seal power through kissing requires a certain level of affection?"

"Eh?"

Shido Itsuka was somewhat surprised by Hatsune Miku's statement.

But Murasame Reine, who was standing to the side, nodded instead.

“That’s very likely, Shishio. When you were sealing Tohka, the level of affection between you two was such that you could trust each other without any problem. But it wasn’t like that for Yoshino.”

"Although she had some feelings for you at the time, it certainly didn't reach the level of 'liking you very much.' Is that why your power failed?"

"Then everything I did this time was completely for nothing..."

With a slight sigh, Itsuka Shido looked wearily at Itsuka Kotori sitting to the side.

But the other party showed no appreciation whatsoever.

"Furthermore, it caused conflict in your relationship with Tohka afterwards. Hmm... now, it's probably starting to decline in the level of affection between you two."

"Hmph, that means losing both your wife and your army."

Itsuka Shido was completely speechless.

Leaving aside the boy who looked like he was dying, Kotori Itsuka once again turned her attention to Accelerator and Hatsune Miku.

"How's it going on your end? Was there anything special about dealing with that hermit?"

"No, that's not the case. However... that child is indeed exceptionally introverted. Hmm... not exactly cowardly, but definitely has difficulty communicating with others..."

Hatsune Miku's answer was as follows.

But Accelerator has a different story.

He then took out the doll he had found earlier from his pocket.

The expressions of the people around him changed instantly.

"This is--!"

"That thing that the little elf was wearing, but even if you investigate, you won't find anything. It's just made of simple cloth. The reason it can talk like that is probably because of the elf's incredible power."

The doll named Yoshina is just an ordinary doll, and it won't make any sense for Kotori Itsuka and the others to study it.

However, Kotori Itsuka's expression remained thoughtful.

"No, my intuition tells me that this doll should be of great importance to us."

"If that's what you think, then I'll give this thing to you for now."

Accelerator immediately tried to hand her the doll.

However, Kotori Itsuka did not accept the doll.

"You should be the ones who have it."

"ah…?"

"Although I don't know what place this doll holds in that elf's heart, since it's part of the elf, I think it's necessary for you to keep it in your hands at all times."

"So you mean you still intend for the two of us to continue having contact with that guy?"

"If we don't do this, we can't continue... right?"

"Tsk." Accelerator clicked his tongue in displeasure.
