However, that effect was not intended to defend the Master.

Instead, it was a massive city gate that completely blocked the path of Tiamat, like a wrapped package.

boom--

The moment the Noble Phantasm materialized, an unprecedented shockwave was felt emanating from its front end.

That level is truly beyond what human power could withstand.

"Gurgle...!"

"Matthew!"

Matthew's body was forced backward by the powerful impact of Tiamat.

This isn't a defense against an attack; it's merely a resistance to that aura and energy field, and it's already turned into this state.

This was even after Fujimaru Ritsuka had already used her last Command Spell.

Nevertheless, even with all his strength, Matthew was... close to reaching his limit.

Swah——

In an instant, a rain of flower petals, which surrounded the sky and earth, scattered all around.

In the instant Matthew could no longer withstand the attack, pink petals began to fall from the sky.

The boundless power of Tiamat was transformed entirely into the form of flower petals.

"Mr. Merlin!"

"Don't... overestimate me."

Although Merlin also came to Matthew's side, he also wore a wry smile.

Even he was covered in beads of sweat.

“The current Tiamat is not at the level I expected. If we let the Grand Assassin King Hassan risk his Grand power here, he will only end up suffering the consequences.”

Tiamat's immortality has evolved into infinity.

Even if you kill it, it will not make any difference.

"So...we have no choice but to...fight it head-on!"

click-

Even Merlin, with all his magic, could only resort to this method at this moment.

That is to concentrate one's magic power and transform that power into everything in front of one.

He stood with Matthew, looking straight ahead.

...As expected.

Even though Hatsune Miku's power was enough to kill Tiamat once, she was still able to recover completely.

"Oh no, this is really bad! Accelerator! What's going on over there?!"

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

As is evident before our eyes, everyone rushed out to buy themselves time to fight Tiamat.

So... what should we do?

Accelerator looked at the electrodes on his neck, and it was indeed back to green light mode.

But there is a problem.

What exactly is the source of this power, and how is it used?

"Well, this kind of power isn't something Misaka could achieve on her own; it also borrows some of the information that remains on you."

"What...remains on my body?"

"Oh dear, you've already forgotten? /backspace? Misaka is somewhat dissatisfied with this /return. After all, the Misaka Network was originally lent to you by Misaka alone, but I didn't expect... that you would let other people connect without my permission /return."

In my mind, the tone of the collective consciousness seemed to have become helpless.

"--Qliphoth545 (inverse source material puzzle).

As soon as the name was mentioned, Accelerator completely understood something.

"Misaka remembers everything that happened back then very clearly. This devil girl possessed you and became one with you. Hmm... although she's not here, she left behind a whole bunch of data."

"You want to use that data to empower me, so that I can return to my former winged state?"

"No, no. The only thing Misaka can do is lend you the full power of the Misaka Network. But... if we rely on the data left behind by that child, we might be able to come up with something even more interesting."

He heard some unique sounds.

It was like stepping into a new field; in Accelerator's eyes, some previously unseen circuit directions emerged.

Click.

It was as if fresh blood was gushing from the iris.

"...Although it will have a minor impact on your body, it's harmless. Since it's a piece of data left over from that demon, this state will only last for a short while. /return."

"If you're ready, turn on the electrode switch. The combined power of the three of us will then be transferred to your /return."

Misaka Networks' overall awareness.

A demon from a future timeline, Reverse Source Puzzle 545.

And Accelerator, the number one and strongest esper in Academy City.

Now, although the demon girl named Q-Demon is not here, the data information she left on Accelerator can still allow the three of them to be connected as one for a short period of time.

Although the time is short.

But that's enough to deal with Tiamat V right now.

and so.

Exploring the circuits of the new power within their bodies, the first person placed their hand on the electrode switch.

He then turned on the electrodes that he hadn't touched in a long time.

—Beep.

For an instant.

In Accelerator's mind, unprecedented things flooded in instantly.

“——Hmm?!”

Even the most brilliant mind in Academy City would find the sheer volume of information overwhelming.

An immense amount of content flashed before his eyes at a speed exceeding the speed of light, and a series of data eventually coalesced into a unified whole.

That's a tree.

Saplings crafted by human hands belong not to any legends or myths, but to a unique realm of possibility.

Relying on this access to the realm, One-Way Pass seemed to glimpse a completely new world.

--abyss.

What enabled him to connect to this realm was the total power value of the entire Misaka Network.

That is--

The Third Tree, which belongs to no mythology and symbolizes possibility itself.

Bang.

The immense total power was fully manifested behind the first position.

Then, it burst forth.

—Neither black nor white, but enormous wings exceeding one hundred meters in length, shooting out in a straight, jet-like motion.

Its color is white gold.

Platinum Wings, comparable to the form of the Holy Guardian Angel Aiwass.

The moment it bursts forth, the surrounding scenery seems to fade away.

Ignoring logical aesthetic concepts renders both ideas and perceptions meaningless.

It's like seeing colorful hues in a black and white comic.

Accelerator's body slowly rose to his feet, accompanied by the appearance of platinum wings.

That's it.

So that's how it is... I see, I understand now—

Finally, I understand why the Misaka Network's collective consciousness was so confident in saying that it could completely kill Tiamat.

"It felt pretty good, didn't it? /backspace?"

The voice of collective consciousness seemed to be mixed with laughter.

"Well then, let's test the output of the new power a bit, first place /return."

then.

Accelerator slightly raised his hand, not with the help of "Doomsday Destroyer" or any other source of power.

The invisible forces scattered in every corner of this world.

They coalesced into a vortex-like "gun" that swirled around him.

"...Whatever you like."

The monster's status has been restored to that of the strongest.

He sneered as he looked at the barrier that no one could cross.

"Anyway, what I'm going to do will not change at all."

Chapter 642 Misaka Network: The Third Tree

In the center of the Garden of Eden, which God built, there was an ancient tree that governed life.

tree of Life.

Legend has it that by following this tree of life upwards, climbing towards the top, one can cross the abyss, gain access to the boundless wisdom beyond the abyss, and reach the highest crown realm.

That is to understand the realm of the gods, to be able to reach the realm of the gods, to obtain the wisdom of divine will, and to be able to govern the world that is the body of a god.

And now.

The realm that Accelerator occupies is quite similar to this level of attainment.

"Listen carefully, even if Misaka could lend you all of this computational domain, it still wouldn't last indefinitely. It's not that Misaka doesn't intend to lend you her power, but the data belonging to that demon girl that's on you isn't enough to sustain it for that long! It can only last for a short while at most. After that period, even Misaka will be powerless to help!"

Behind Accelerator, nearly transparent platinum wings shot out.

These enormous wings, which seem to make the world's scenery fade, can only be maintained for a very short time.

Whether it was ten minutes or several tens of minutes, it was impossible to know.

but.

It was precisely because of these wings that the first person understood the true significance of their power.

This is not something as superficial as simply flapping wings or releasing light beams.

The power gained from these wings cannot be explained by such a simple physical phenomenon.

He shifted his gaze to the front of the underworld cave.

Tiamat continues to oppress everyone around her.

Despite being heavily suppressed by numerous mythical heroes, they were still able to break through at this time and crush back with overwhelming power.

The Servants are almost at their limit.

and so.

The first one raised his hand and gently pointed to the location of Tiamat.

—Bang!!!!

In an instant, the change occurred.
