One-way traffic

At that very moment, he saw another figure that he knew very well.

It was white, an ominous white that was even brighter than moonlight.

The opponent fell from the sky at supersonic speed, followed closely by a world-class idol singer dressed as a shrine maiden.

"You arrived quite quickly."

"That's utter nonsense. When have I ever needed you?"

"That's true, but you should know exactly why I'm here... Or do you think it would be better for things to continue like this without me?"

Accelerator looked around and realized that without Kakine Teitoku's protection, this area would only suffer even more horrific destruction.

He clicked his tongue in utter displeasure and stood up.

"Well, it's about time you explained it to me clearly."

"what?"

"Don't play dumb. Do you think I don't understand what you're thinking? If you hadn't used some tricks, do you think I would have suddenly appeared here?"

Kakine Teitoku retorted in an even more displeased tone.

"I was on my way to the second big live show, and you dragged me here, you bastard. We can talk about interest later, but you should at least give me an explanation, right?"

If Accelerator summoned me, then it should be based on information he himself knows, right?

but.

Kakine Teitoku witnessed firsthand that the person ranked first in front of him simply wore a silent expression.

Even he couldn't help but frown at this moment.

"Wait, what exactly happened...?"

"I also want to know how this little punk ended up in this godforsaken place. There's no way he could have a system on him, or...?"

"System...? What is that? It seems you have mastered something more profound in areas I don't understand."

Although all of this came very suddenly, Kakine Teitoku seems to have gradually accepted the current situation.

Even so, the group still couldn't figure out what had happened.

at this time.

Ziga—

A snow-like effect suddenly appeared on Kakine Teitoku's body.

"Eh--?!"

"This is…"

Hatsune Miku and Accelerator looked at him in astonishment.

But Kakine Teitoku seemed to have expected this and didn't seem to care.

"Although I don't know exactly what's going on, at the very least, I don't think I can stay here any longer."

"Then I'll get to the point. Did you sense anything unusual when you were summoned from over there?"

"If I had to put it into words, it would only be information forcibly crammed into my head... After complying with the order and coming to this strange world, the only information I learned was something like 'Accelerator needed help and pulled me into this completely different world.'"

Ultimately, even after combining all the intelligence, the only conclusion that can be drawn is that it was all done by Accelerator.

However, the person in charge was completely unaware of this.

And so, the light surrounding the second person grew thinner and thinner, and his body began to seem to disappear.

"Fine, whatever the reason, I hope you'll inform me before doing anything next time. You dragged me to a place like this without even a word. Who do you think you are?"

"You've grown bold, you little punk? You think I need your help, you idiot?"

"Stop talking nonsense, your own thoughts have completely betrayed you."

"Ha, you can figure out what I'm thinking just from a few words you said? Go back and study some psychology, you little rascal."

Hatsune Miku, standing to the side, couldn't help but blink.

For some reason, the conversation between the two seemed to become increasingly heated.

"Um, that...!"

“You might think this is already at the level of arguing, but for people like us, it’s nothing at all.”

The person who interrupted her was Kakine Teitoku.

The second-ranked Level 5 superpowered individual instead displayed an indifferent smile.

"Or rather, this is our more ordinary greeting. If we were to thank each other in a gentler tone, I think I would definitely spit it out without hesitation."

"This... this kind of thing...?"

Although Hatsune Miku intended to continue asking questions, it seemed to be too late.

Before him, Kakine Teitoku's figure had completely disappeared from the spot.

The second-ranked member of Academy City, belonging to another world, has completely left this world.

"…snort."

Accelerator glanced unhappily at the spot where the other person had left, then fell into deep thought once again.

"Is everything alright, Yifang?"

"It doesn't matter what kind of idiot he is, just let him do what he wants."

The real problem is not Kakine Teitoku himself.

The question is, why would Kakine Teitoku, who belongs to another world, suddenly appear in this world?

Although he could guess the reason for the problem to some extent, Accelerator himself still couldn't understand the underlying principle.

The clue actually came from what just happened.

The silent Accelerator simply opened the system menu bar in front of him.

The information marked in the last column was displayed directly.

connection.

Just now, it was after I saw it that Kakine Teitoku appeared in this world.

Based on the meaning of this term and the effects that have occurred before, it is easy to infer that this is the effect of connecting two different worlds, which is why Kakine Teitoku was able to arrive in this world.

But what is the reason?

Why would this kind of connection occur?

And what exactly does this feature mean?

Just as Accelerator was thinking this, his phone vibrated again in his pocket.

The caller was still Kotori Itsuka.

"How's the situation over there?!"

"The problem has been resolved. The two people here are both fine, and I won't let them die."

"That's good... Now, the AST forces will be arriving at your location soon. Please take Shido to within 100 meters of your current location as soon as possible. Once you arrive, we will use the ship's teleportation system to bring you back!"

After saying that, Kotori Itsuka hung up the call immediately.

Accelerator and Hatsune Miku looked behind them, and then the two of them immediately helped the two who had fallen to the ground to their feet.

That's all there is to it.

The doubts in Accelerator's mind grew even stronger.

"...Let's leave here first and then talk about it."

Chapter 386 The Last Tranquility

Inside Fraxinus —

When they came to their senses, almost everyone had already been transported into this enormous spaceship.

The interior of the medical practice can be seen directly through the glass.

Lying in bed, with electrodes from various instruments pressed tightly against her body, the blue-haired girl, Takamiya Mana, still shows no signs of waking up.

"Is she... really alright?"

This scene really worried Itsuka Shido.

"With my abilities, I can at least guarantee that she won't have any problems."

But Accelerator, standing to the side, answered without hesitation.

With his abilities, he could accurately observe Mana's physical condition. On the way from that park to Fraxinus, he had already examined Mana Takamiya and Shido Itsuka's bodies, and their conditions were basically fine.

I can understand what Shido Itsuka said, but Mana Takamiya's physical condition is probably because her body has been modified, so she is not a normal person at all.

However, just like the results obtained by Accelerator in the previous test.

Such an extraordinary and powerful physique is bound to have side effects.

Judging from Kotori Itsuka's expression, she probably already knew from the data that Mana Takamiya's lifespan was only about ten years left.

In any case, that kind of thing shouldn't be brought up now.

"Right! I vaguely remember seeing someone before I passed out, and that person seemed to have... three pairs of wings?"

"It's nothing, you don't need to worry about it, it's not a big deal."

"Huh? Is that so? I was really hoping to properly thank the person who saved me..."

Shido Itsuka scratched his head, but Accelerator glared at him, and the topic was dropped.

The next question is about the others.

“Janna’s condition is not particularly bad. She has received appropriate treatment and will recover soon.”

"That would be wonderful!"

"...It's not good at all."

Kotori Itsuka's expression could be described as extremely serious.

"Shido, now that we've had this date, Kurumi has basically learned your intentions, and you've also seen Kurumi's true identity completely."

That means both sides have completely laid their cards on the table.

"Kurumi's existence has always been a huge threat to us, and now... the situation is probably going to be even more troublesome."

"Is it because she already knows our purpose?"

"The main reason is probably that she never intended to have a serious date with you in the first place."

Itsuka Shido fell silent.

Recalling what he saw at the end of their previous date, he suddenly didn't know what to say.

however.

"What you decide to do next is your own business."

The other person standing to the side said it directly.

"If that guy continues to do such despicable things as targeting the people around me, then that bastard will never have a next chance."

"To be more precise, I originally intended to get rid of that dog poop directly, but I just didn't do it because of you guys."

"The opportunity is yours, so I advise you to think it through carefully before you act."

“…I know.”

Even without his reminder, Itsuka Shido was naturally aware of this.

"But if we do that, we'll be no different from AST, right?"

"Shido..."

"It's true that Kurumi is called the most evil spirit, but even so, I still want to save her."

"If Kurumi continues to kill, then Shinichi will definitely choose to continue killing her... What's the point of this endless cycle? It doesn't benefit anyone!"

However, it would be different if Kurumi lost her spiritual power and became an ordinary person.
