From the very beginning, Accelerator did not do these things in order to restore his body.

That's it.

This is clearly an urgent situation, a situation where I have no choice but to return to my original world.

However, he prioritizes other people's ideas.

…This really is the first time.

Aside from The Last Order and Hatsune Miku, this is the first time she has fought for someone other than herself.

This is truly the first time in history.

"I don't care what methods you use, you have to make sure those two guys have a better ending."

"...Are you really that concerned about their relationship?"

Jie stared intently at Accelerator in front of her, as if the hand gripping her collar was completely unimportant.

then.

She actually...slowly smiled.

"If that's the case, then congratulations."

then.

Even Accelerator himself was unaware of what had happened.

just.

An unparalleled aura seemed to emanate from the other party!

"You've finally grasped what I really wanted you to understand."

"That is... thinking about people other than yourself and the most important people in your life."

That's it.

Even the first person himself struggled to comprehend the change, and it happened in an instant—

It covered his entire body.

Chapter 723 Your name is…

There is no one in this world who possesses the mind of a god.

No matter who you are, as a human being, you can never cross the boundaries set by Heaven. The positions of angels and gods are predetermined.

Unless a bizarre phenomenon like the "fall of angels" occurs, no one else has the opportunity to peek into the realm of God.

…but.

There was one exception.

Even among the Level 5 espers trained by Academy City, the other six were unable to reach this level steadily. Some failed when they tried to glimpse the realm of gods by taking various drugs or other means, while others even self-destructed as a result.

Only one person can reach the level of peering into the realm of the gods by taking the simplest and safest route.

He was standing right here.

I understand.

The white-haired, red-eyed man seemed to be muttering something as he simply stood there, ignoring the astonished gazes directed at him.

"I see... I see, that's how it is."

Bilibili.

Bilibili—!!

An electric current surged up around him.

It's not the bright blue of lightning.

Instead, it's a darker, blackish-purple color.

"W-what's wrong...?"

"Hey."

Accelerator let out a low shout, which startled the knot in front of him.

"You just said that if I leave this world, everything that happened before will be forcibly erased and corrected, and even the memories of those two guys will be lost, right?"

"What...do you want to do?"

no respond.

Accelerator calmly reached out and grasped Jie's delicate arm.

Zzzzz—!

A purplish-black current instantly enveloped the two of them.

"Don't move."

However, the electric current, which was so violent and powerful, did not harm Jie's body in the slightest.

The sensation felt when the electric current hits the body is only a slight pulsation.

correct.

These currents weren't generated with the intention of harming themselves at all.

As if they possessed self-awareness, they slowly began to attach themselves to something more abstract and abstract…

"...My power?"

It wasn't until this moment that Jie finally realized it.

The purpose of these electric currents is not to harm themselves.

Instead, it should be like a thread, binding around the power you possess.

That meaning is "Musubi," which is equivalent to an infinitely vast power.

"What are you doing? You're trying to use those electric currents... to steal my power?!"

Realizing this, she couldn't help but feel a sense of horror.

Originally, Accelerator was only brought in to help him get rid of the dragon god and prevent him from taking away the power called "Musubi".

But if Accelerator were to try and take away this power, then—it would be a really bad situation.

Because, although she possessed terrifying power that seemed almost limitless, she herself had no way to use this power, or even to fight against enemies. Otherwise, she would have already gone to deal with that dragon god herself.

If Accelerator wanted to take away the power she was protecting, she wouldn't have a chance to resist at all.

It's that easy.

"Fool, do you think I care about your so-called unlimited power?"

"Eh?!"

But the first person uttered words that she found unbelievable.

Accelerator seemed to have anticipated that Jie would show such an expression.

So he simply gave that one calm reply.

"Since you can't control or use this power yourself, then I'll help you."

"Could it be that you intend to—?!"

"Ah...that's how it is."

That's also something Accelerator is best at doing.

"I have no interest in taking away your boring power. All I did was change the direction of this power."

That's right.

That's what he's most skilled at.

The monster that holds the number one spot.

What exactly was the meaning behind the smile that appeared at the corner of his mouth?

"Because I possess the ability to control all 'directions'!"

Bang——! ! !

An invisible explosion instantly resounded in this seemingly empty space.

It was unclear where the sound came from; it seemed to explode from all around, or perhaps it came from within the two people's bodies.

But that's not the point.

Suddenly, in Jie's perception, the immense power, equivalent to an infinitely vast expanse, changed.

It began to change and distort in a single direction.

"What…"

Amidst the shocking sensation, the power seemed to be forcibly grasped by something unseen, and slowly converged towards a deeper location.

A level that can easily grasp even this infinitely vast power?

Just how much power would it take to do that?!

A force that no one can perceive or stop, directly rewriting the world from within.

It then exploded.

Then, the fate and memories belonging to a boy and a girl were preserved.

Their experiences will not disappear just because someone here wants to leave.

Even if the world wants to forcibly change these things.

There will still be a tremendous force that transcends the world and will change all of this.

correct.

—From behind Accelerator, it wasn't just a purplish-black current that emerged.

The knot can be vaguely seen.

Something resembling wings slowly emerged from behind him.

"That's about it, it's time to end this."

Sensing the change in the level of power output, Accelerator casually spread his hands apart.

The current dissipated along with his movement.

Everything around him, which had been restless, seemed to vanish into nothingness because of his actions.

What exactly happened?

Jie immediately looked around, but... no matter how she looked at it, there seemed to be no problem here.

This was a space she had barely managed to create using this power, so if anything unusual happened, she would be able to detect it immediately.

…precisely because there were no anomalies.

Because everything was so peaceful and natural.

This is equivalent to a more purely 'unnatural' state.

A chilling unnaturalness.

"You don't need to worry about those two guys, and you don't need to concern yourself with anything else."

"From now on, the power in your hands will no longer be taken away by some random guy, and you don't need to worry about anything else."

"So, I advise you not to try anything funny with me."

"Unless you also want to turn into a puddle of mud."

The words, as if branded directly into one's heart, instantly reached that heart.

And when Jie turned her head to look ahead.

There's no one left.

The white-haired, red-eyed figure had completely vanished without a trace.
