One-way traffic

Alice dodged the massive barrage of bullets falling from the sky.

Then, she unleashed her own spell card from the other side.

"Curse the 'Hōrai Doll'—!!"

The puppeteer's power took effect.

Several puppet figures then appeared around her.

These puppets gathered in front of her, and a life-sized dark red magic circle took shape. They converged there, pouring a large amount of magic power into it.

From in front of Alice, a destructive beam of light, seemingly intent on shattering everything, shot straight up.

The target was to blast towards the white-haired girl.

The girl's eyes twitched slightly, and then—

She seemed to say something else.

Squeak—!! This time, Alice's attack took an unusual turn.

The beam of light that was supposed to be heading straight for the girl instantly transformed into tiny rays of light that spread out in all directions.

Taking advantage of this moment, the white-haired girl slipped through the gap in the light.

however.

At the same time, another shadow descended beside her.

"...!"

Even she was taken aback.

The white figure with the same hair and pupils as himself.

Four tornado-like wings unfurled behind him, while his right hand reached out like a monster's claw.

This time, she once again managed to utter something from her mouth.

The girl's body should have been torn apart like paper by the monster's hand in that instant, but she managed to escape in an almost impossible way.

But she didn't notice one thing.

"Do you think I would make the same mistake twice in the same situation?"

Followed by.

Behind Accelerator, four tornadoes roared out like sword blades.

BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM—!!

The girl's eyes widened, and she quickly created a large barrage of bullets to block the attack of the four tornadoes.

But the moment the explosion occurred, the white shadow flew out again.

He raised his right foot with an almost imperceptible speed.

“Shit…!”

The white-haired girl tried to say something, but his movements were faster than her words.

The blow fell at a speed exceeding the speed of sound.

A kick that could even open the main gate of a nuclear shelter.

With such immense power, the girl's body was kicked away like a meteor in an instant.

Boom——! ! !

Her body slid down the streets of the Lunar Capital, leaving behind a trail of extremely obvious destruction.

"Did you make it?"

Accelerator and Alice landed on the ground together.

But the person in the first place didn't look too happy.

——Crack.

Ahead, on the streets that were utterly destroyed.

The girl's shadow reappeared.

"...thus, the power of scale."

It made a sound.

The girl, who had barely spoken a few words until now, finally opened her mouth.

"So that's how it is. With such power... no wonder it could destroy the entire dream world in one go."

"Isn't it too late to speak now?"

The white figure landed in front of him in an instant.

The other person stared at him, as if they were about to unleash the same level of power on him again at any moment.

But the white-haired girl didn't care at all.

"Well, if it's that powerful... that should be enough, right?"

"I mean, is it really that interesting to just stand there and talk nonsense to yourself?"

Accelerator spoke with obvious displeasure, as if he were about to explode at any moment.

"I show no mercy to idiots who never intended to communicate properly from the start. Watch out, someone like me might tear you to shreds in the next second."

"No, that's exactly how I've been hoping for."

"what?"

Accelerator raised an eyebrow, but the girl in front of him turned her gaze to him.

“My name is Hishigami Tanjo, and... the power I possess is the ability to turn the world in the opposite direction simply with words.”

"Language...so that's what it is?"

Alice immediately looked enlightened.

"I've been seeing you muttering something since the beginning. You're just using your abilities to distort our attacks to ensure your own safety, aren't you?"

That was the true nature of the girl's ability—the Hermit Detective.

She did not respond to Alice, or rather, there was no need to respond to such a question.

"The one who ordered the machines of the Moon Capital to invade your land, yes, it was me."

"...You actually dared to admit it yourself."

But that's exactly what Accelerator was thinking.

A character who can suddenly appear in such an empty place must be someone of great importance.

The girl in front of them, named Hishikami Tanjo, is the culprit who assigned those robots to invade Gensokyo.

Once you understand this...

Accelerator stretched out his hand and directly made them make a clicking sound.

"So that means I can settle things with you right here without any problem, right?"

The Detective Girl smiled softly.

"You can give it a try."

Boom——! !

The ground was crushed, and the first person raised his arm without hesitation.

A nightmarish blow fell smoothly.

However, at that very moment...

A series of thunderbolts and storms instantly enveloped him.

"Tannu-sama!"

The voices of the others could be heard from ahead.

Moreover, there were two of them.

"Accelerator...!"

Alice, who had rushed over, cried out in alarm when she saw Accelerator engulfed in the lightning and storm.

The one in the first position, located in the central area of ​​the destructive power, merely moved its eyes calmly.

——Bang!

The reflection then takes effect.

Thunder and storms—no force could penetrate his defenses; all those forces were blasted away with a peculiar sound effect.

When he came to his senses, two other figures had already appeared in front of him.

A girl holding a long sword, dressed in ancient-style clothing, with long purple hair.

A girl holding a folding fan, also wearing a dress, with long golden hair reaching her waist, and a white hat on her head.

"My lady, are you alright?"

The two men stood on either side of the mysterious detective and greeted her simultaneously.

From the perspective of one-way communication.

The power possessed by these two girls was in no way inferior to that guy called the Ragnarok Detective.

"It's getting more and more interesting."

Even in the face of such a situation, the first person showed no sign of panic whatsoever.

On the contrary, his fighting spirit began to grow stronger and stronger.

Chapter 489 The Struggle Against the Moon People

In front.

Originally, Heishin Tanjo was fighting alone, but now she has the support of two people.

They each came to the side of the Mysterious Woman.

In this way, even if their identities are not explicitly stated, people can still guess them.

"Yoshihime and Toyohime...aren't you going to fight the invaders?"

"Ah, if we're talking about those invaders, I've already taken care of them all by myself."

"As expected of my younger sister, she's amazing! Her strength is truly remarkable!"

"No, no, big sister... We should be dealing with more important things first, shouldn't we?"

The three girls turned their gaze back to what was ahead.

The extent of the environmental damage around them reveals just how arduous the delaying battle had been for the Heishin Tanjo.

The street was damaged in a straight line, leaving a mark over 100 meters long. Buildings nearby also showed signs of damage from the aftershocks, with broken windows and other damage.

There are only two people who caused all of this.

Standing in front of them were a white-clad figure and a blond-haired figure.

Even without looking, one can sense the aura emanating from the two of them, an aura unique to earthly beings.

filthy.

It is something that everyone in the City of the Moon can feel and deeply abhor.

This filth does not exist in a purely physical form; in fact, every living thing on earth carries something called filth.

Even though the two girls in front of them didn't despise the so-called filth as much as the other Moon People, they could still sense it.

"Watatsuki Yorihime, Watatsuki Toyohime..."

As a high-ranking administrator in the Lunar Capital, Hishikami is a special being with a powerful enough influence to affect the world, but she is not a strong fighter.

Therefore, even if the female spy possesses extraordinary abilities, it doesn't necessarily mean that she is truly skilled in combat.

At least that's true for the two people in front of us.
