"A...passerby?"

"Idiot, would an ordinary passerby possibly come to this kind of desolate place?"

Othinus's words immediately perked up Touma Kamijou.

If that's the meaning, then it means—

"Be on your guard, humans."

"Ah... I know."

There's only one possibility for someone to run over at a time like this.

That is, the guy who came to hunt me down.

Touma Kamijou held his breath, using his ordinary high school student's eyesight to try and make out what the person in the distance looked like.

"No need for that trouble, I've already seen it."

Fortunately, Othinus, still a demon god, was able to make some sense based on his experience.

"The surrounding snowfield contrasted with the person's clothing. Although they looked very similar, it was still possible to tell that the person had white hair."

"…What?"

"I moved a little closer, and now I can even see the color of its eyes clearly. It should be a white-haired, red-eyed one... Hey human, what are you—"

Just as Euthinus was about to continue describing the man's appearance...

Touma Kamijou has already taken action.

Without hesitation, he used his own body to press Euthinus to the ground.

"Lie down properly!!"

boom! ! ! !

An endless sound that seemed to tear the world apart exploded outwards.

The two had barely lay down on the ground when a massive snowplow, about two hundred meters long, flew out from above them with an aura as if it were about to slice through the world's highest mountain. The snow, several hundred meters wide, was instantly propelled a thousand meters away.

Euthinus's eyes widened in surprise, and he quickly tried to get up.

"Tsk, the attackers are... from the irregular faction?"

"It's more than just irregular; I knew which bastard he was the moment you introduced him!"

That's a character that would require Touma Kamijou to put in 120% effort to face.

Directly in front, the figure that had sent so much ice and snow flying with a single kick became even clearer as it slowly approached.

It's something that even Touma Kamijou himself can clearly see.

"...but on the contrary."

The high school student with spiky hair clenched his right fist.

She stared wide-eyed at the person who had just arrived.

"The first one to arrive, and you just so happen to be the one—!!"

White hair, red eyes, and clothing that perfectly matched the surrounding ice and snow.

Accelerator, the number one in Academy City.

The strongest monster tapped its forehead slightly with its finger, its eyes fixed intently on them.

Even though it was daytime, a pair of bright red blood-red eyes made the air feel scorching.

Just by staring at it, I could feel my blood freezing and my heart slowing down.

"I said."

The monster, who held the top position, spoke coldly and mercilessly.

"You're just making a bunch of senseless nonsense. Shouldn't you at least give me a limit?"

Intertwined and unfolding.

The monster, its eyes wide open, stared back at the spiky-haired youth who was watching them warily.

Its ferocity, seemingly overwhelming the entire world, and its hellish intensity, pressed down upon Touma Kamijou's world.

Chapter 648 The Second Duel with Imagine Breaker

In the past, Touma Kamijou had indeed experienced all sorts of hell.

This was not the situation experienced in the endless cycle of hell created for him by the demon Euthinus.

Instead, it is in the original world, in this normal spacetime where science and magic intersect.

"Step back, Euthinus."

That's why Touma Kamijou was fully aware of just how threatening the enemy before him was.

It is enough to stand at the top of this world, and almost no one can match it.

It is even enough to fight the monster of the demon god Othinus alone.

"This is where the real action begins! You'd better get out of there and hide somewhere far away!!"

So the spiky-haired high school student acted without hesitation.

In order to be able to withstand the various levels of attacks that the strongest monster before him was about to inflict.

First of all.

Accelerator lifted his foot and easily unleashed a terrifying hurricane.

boom! !

The wind speed exceeded 758 kilometers per hour.

The Shadow of Death, unmatched by any other force in the world today, hurtled towards us from the left, right, and top with a single strike that seemed to devour even space itself.

Upon closer inspection, the range of that attack exceeded all that humans could dodge; even if an armored vehicle charged head-on at it, it would be mercilessly crushed into a pile of mud.

Touma Kamijou knew he couldn't escape the wide-ranging attack of this gale.

He did not hesitate, nor did he choose to avoid it.

Clenching his right fist, he smashed it head-on into the very center of the raging wind.

--boom! !

Then, the whirlwind exploded.

The destructive wind that could whip up thousands of meters of land in one go was shattered by Touma Kamijou's right fist. After that, he charged straight at the figure in front of him.

However, Touma Kamijou knew all too well just how terrifying the enemy was.

Before his right fist could even make contact with the opponent, the white figure had already vanished from the spot.

"?!"

It was just... an afterimage?!

He instinctively sensed a profound and unforgettable fear, and his shoulders twitched involuntarily as he shivered.

Kamijou Touma transformed his right fist into a palm, rapidly turning around as he charged towards the position in front of him, while simultaneously raising his right hand towards the position opposite him.

A pale hand, claw-like, was reaching out towards him.

Bang! He suddenly exerted force with his five fingers, which in turn pulled and slapped away the other hand.

The first one stared at him coldly.

The next instant, something else appeared in his hand.

The moment I realized this.

The earth has been torn apart.

“Wow—?!”

Affected by the impact, Touma Kamijou's body, along with the ground with a radius of about eighty meters, was thrown into the air.

That was not caused by Accelerator's ability.

Instead, it was the thing in his hand that, after being fired at the ground, turned into what it is now.

"What is that... a gun? Is it a new weapon from Academy City?!"

A dark red gun with speckled mechanical armor plates on its surface appeared in the hands of the first player.

As he pointed the gun at himself, he raised his right hand, and countless gusts of wind rushed towards Touma Kamijou once again.

*Gurgle!*

The spiky-haired high school student was unable to change his situation while in mid-air.

So he pressed his body against the rocky ground beneath him, which was being lifted up along with the rock, and raised his right hand high.

The raging wind that should have torn his upper body apart was not touched because of the height difference caused by his crouching position, and was then touched by his raised right hand, returning to nature.

at this time.

The white snow-covered rock floor beneath Touma Kamijou instantly cracked.

Boom! A sound that broke the sound barrier exploded as it passed directly beside his body.

He saw a towering flame appear thousands of meters behind him.

Kamijou Touma barely landed on the snow. He didn't have time to check the situation, so he had to check on the First Passage that he needed to pay attention to first.

The first one remained standing in the same spot the whole time, without moving much.

In terms of abilities, he seems to simply control the wind, but there is something in Accelerator's hands that he cares about very much.

That dark red gun.

'That thing was responsible for the destruction just now. How could it...? How could such a small weapon have such destructive power...? Was it made in Academy City?!'

"You've done a lot of incredibly stupid things all along."

It made a sound.

The monster's magnetic voice, which could change the very color of the world, made Touma Kamijou, who was listening, feel a shiver run down his spine.

"But I never imagined that such a world-scale idiocy would happen to you. What's wrong with you? Your reckless, hero-like behavior is getting more and more outrageous."

The first one aimed his pistol in his direction.

After doing this, Touma Kamijou's body moved instinctively.

boom--

Dark red, flame-like light bullets shot out.

The snow behind him was instantly struck, and then...

The aftershocks of the explosion alone turned an area of ​​nearly several hundred meters into a sea of ​​fire.

'Varied--?!'

There was no way to avoid this ironic scene.

Such a simple shot can cause this level of destructive power.

After being blown more than ten meters away, Kamijou Touma's body fell down to the snow below, where he was met only by a sea of ​​deathly fire that seemed to engulf the entire icy world.

wrong.

Something doesn't feel right at all!

"This thing...could it be!"

He used a level of composure that most people would never have to do what he did next.

He touched the flames with his right hand.

Bang! Then, the flames that had been touched dissipated, and a small portion of the ground was transformed back into a safe place to stand.

But this is not the end.

Suddenly, the gun in Accelerator's hand flashed a dazzling red light.

Subsequently, it transformed into some other form.
