Magical Index: Become a Girl and Come to Academy City

"The Index! That person is the Index? Do you actually know her?"

When Lidvia heard Index's voice coming from the phone that had been stolen at some point, she immediately figured out her identity from the other party's style and understanding of the technique.

Index's voice came, "You are a magician from the Roman Orthodox Church, right? Don't try to get complacent while I'm here. Although I can't refine my magic power right now, if that orange-haired guy can just tell me the external form and description of the spell, as long as it's magic knowledge within my comprehension, I can deduce your spell from you even from this distance and then interfere with it."

When Lidvia saw that Tianchuan Palace and the British Puritan Index of Prohibited Books joined forces to deal with her, she felt incredible, and along with this surprise, there was also a voice in her heart that broke.

"So you're also related to those Anglican Puritans? So it's not that you don't believe in magic, or in the Roman Catholic Church, but you don't believe in me, right?"

Tianchuan Palace was stunned by her question. The tense situation suddenly changed, as if he could taste the sourness in the air.

Lidoviya lowered her head and whispered, "I originally thought you were just a lamb who had gone astray, so I wanted to show you magic to get you on the right path, but you deceived me. Not only do you know magic, you are also our enemy on the scientific side."

"Okay, no problem. Even if you are an enemy of the science side, it's fine because I believe you are bewitched. I can still save you and let you choose the magic side. But now you have deceived me again. You have already accepted the existence of the magic side."

"It's just...it's just that the existence you accept is not me, not the Roman Catholic Church, but our other enemy, the English Puritan Church. Why do you have to stand against me?"

This sudden self-narration made Tianchuan Gong not know what to do for a moment. Even Index felt like she had been unnecessary involved in this strange relationship and did not say anything else.

She wanted to explain: "No, no, I have nothing to do with the English Puritans, we just..."

"Enough!" Lidoviya shouted decisively, making a bold statement to Tianchuan Palace and Index on the phone, "When we dominate Academy City, the entire scientific side will no longer exist. By then, the British Puritans will be our next target. You can't escape."

Then he launched the salt technique again, and the attack became more fierce. Tianchuan Palace said nothing more, held his breath again, and used his ability to dodge.

While using forced chanting interference, Index analyzed the strategy. "Orange-haired man, the magician's technique was originally an angelic technique, and humans cannot use it. The original technique only affects living things, and it doesn't take the form of light. Anyone who sees it turns into a pillar of salt. This must be a degraded version that he improved on."

"So, how should we respond?" Tianchuan Palace asked.

Index answered decisively, "There's nothing you can do. Just wait until Touma comes to help you. I can't contact him, but I've asked Xiao Meng to go find him. Now it's up to me to buy you some time."

Amagawa was in tears. Kamijou Touma was still at the observatory. How could he possibly come over so soon? By that time, it was unknown whether Kaname and Shokuhou Misaki could still hold on against Kihara Gensei.

"But!" Index added, "Although I can't break her salt spell, I can break the defensive spell she uses for movement."

"Why didn't you say it earlier!" Tianchuan Gong shouted anxiously.

The British Puritans and the Roman Orthodox Church had never gotten along. When Lidvia, who was far away, saw the two talking on the phone, she became furious. In her rage, she took the initiative to close the distance and rushed towards Tianchuan Palace.

"Tell me quickly which direction she is walking in now." Index was anxious, but she did not speak without thinking. She spoke clearly and asked calmly.

Tianchuan Palace Expressway said: "In the west-east direction, the angles with the setting sun and the moon are 45 degrees and 30 degrees respectively."

"What about the surrounding terrain?"

"There's not a blade of grass growing on it, and it's surrounded by asphalt roads, and the ground is flat."

"Approximate location."

"It's in the south of Academy City, right under the flight path of District 13's planes."

After receiving this information, Index closed her eyes, calculated the current direction of the spell and the interference factors, and then slowly said: "L·A·R·O·G·D (left and right deviation, gravity downward)"

As she finished her words, the usually agile and swift Lidoviya suddenly seemed to lose control, her body involuntarily tilting to one side, like a car skidding in the snow, unable to maintain balance.

At the same time, the magic she originally used to reduce her body weight was reversed and turned into a force that increased her own weight, making her body extremely heavy.

In the end, Lidoviya couldn't bear this sudden change and fell heavily to the ground.

"Good opportunity! You can't escape now." Tianchuan Gong was secretly delighted when she saw this scene. She immediately moved in front of Lidoviya and reached out to put the card in front of her.

"Lidoviya, don't blame me. This thing will only knock you down for a moment. It won't be life-threatening to you." Tianchuan Gong thought silently in his heart, but there was no hesitation in his hands.

However, just as she was about to attach the card, a green light shield suddenly unfolded without warning, blocking her attack.

Tianchuan Gong's pupils suddenly contracted, and then she was kicked in the abdomen by a powerful force. The huge pain instantly made her lose all her strength. Her body became loose and she fell to the ground powerlessly.

She struggled hard, trying to reach out and grab the card that fell to the ground. However, just as she was about to touch the card, a green light shot out from the cross on Lidoviya's monastic robe, instantly turning the card into ashes.

Lidoviya slowly stood up and walked towards Tianchuan Palace, saying, "Have you forgotten something? I don't just have this one technique. Even if you can rush in front of me, even if I can't dodge, it doesn't mean that I have no means of defense."

Index on the other end of the phone was extremely anxious. She shouted anxiously, "What kind of technique is she using now? Tell me quickly! I'll help you..."

However, before she could finish her words, Lidoviya stepped on the phone. With a crisp crack, the phone's screen shattered, and no sound could be heard.
