How did you bunch of silly group members also time travel?

Even Kihara Tatsuki was speechless. "...Nobody's going to take it from you. Calm down and talk things out."

"Mmm!" After gulping down a bottle of MP potion to quench her thirst, Miss Fox elegantly washed her mouth. "I'm full!"

The lunchbox was spotless; every grain of rice and broth had been completely removed, with not a single grain of food wasted—a habit Miss Fox had maintained since childhood.

"Where did we just talk?"

"It would be more appropriate to promote the seventh position in the battle... but that doesn't make sense, the second position is clearly stronger!"

"A common mistake in Academy City: Lv.5 rankings are based on strength!"

Miss Fox took something out of the cleavage between her breasts, stretched it out, and used it as a pointer.

"Isn't this the antenna I took off my radio?!" Touma Kamijou exclaimed!

"The Lv.5 ranking in Academy City is based on research value. If we're talking about combat power, purely within Academy City, Accelerator is the strongest. The second and seventh brothers are currently not that different in actual combat power. We can rank them however we want after that," Miss Fox said excitedly.

He has a strong desire to explain.

"Mr. Kamijou has been ignored!?"

“Telekinesis cannonballs…” Kihara Tsuki tried hard to construct the image of the seventh in her mind, but she suddenly realized that she had almost no impression of the seventh except for the largest Originium.

When they were active in the shadows, they had never heard any news about the seventh person.

"The seventh one to control the Nen cannonball, the world's largest raw gem, even he himself doesn't understand what abilities he possesses, and in fact, his abilities haven't truly awakened..." As she spoke, Miss Fox suddenly looked at Touma Kamijou. Touma Kamijou, who was reaching for another unopened lunchbox, trembled and turned back, saying, "Mr. Kamijou doesn't have..."

Then Miss Fox pointed her finger at his nose and said, "Look at this ordinary high school student, he's actually the world's largest raw gem!"

"He's a raw gem?" Kihara Tamaki was the first to disbelieve it!

"Isn't this just an ordinary person? I can't even sense the slightest ATM force!"

"Then try holding his right hand." Miss Fox smiled but didn't say anything more.

"Hey! Mr. Kamijou is just a regular high school student, not some kind of gem!" Kamijou Touma said, trying to avoid the question.

Although he didn't know why, Touma's intuition told him that this fox lady was definitely up to something strange.

If this continues, I have a feeling that his future life will definitely face serious problems!

"Stop talking nonsense! Let me touch you! Touching you won't get you pregnant!"

"Miss Kihara Awaki, you look like a pervert! Please tone it down!"

"Stop dawdling, I don't care anymore. You're not a virgin, are you?"

"This has nothing to do with whether he's a virgin or not!"

Miss Fox watched silently, noting Misaki Shokuhou's name in her notebook and drawing a hat on it with a green pen.

Misaki Shokuhou, who was far away in Touma Kamijou's dormitory, immediately shivered and woke up.

"Alright, alright, you two stop fooling around. The experiment is about to begin. Doesn't Mr. Kamijou need to digest the food in his stomach first?"

In the end, Kihara Tsuki never managed to touch Kamijou Touma's right hand.

Although Kihara Tsuki's fighting skills were not weak, she was no match for Kamijou Touma at all. She was constantly entangled in the fight and gained many advantages, but she just couldn't touch Kamijou Touma's right hand.

Kihara Tatsuki was very concerned, her resentful little eyes fixed on Kamijou Touma's right hand.

Startled, Touma broke out in a cold sweat and quickly hid next to the fox-girl, trying to change the subject: "What do I need to do next?"

"How do we do it?" Actually, Miss Fox prefers the original story, which has Mr. Kamijou conquering Misaka Mikoto first.

but now...

Misaka 10086 had set up a trap, and Kihara Gensei was also plotting something, wanting to make tonight's experiment take place here. If they didn't intervene, Misaka 10086 would surely die.

Touma Kamijou hasn't even met Misaka Mikoto yet...

"Well, even if I asked you to act out a scene with Misaka Mikoto, you wouldn't be willing." Miss Fox looked at Kihara Tsuki.

Well, one hidden giant can be traded for one poor one, and an excellent mode of transportation can be traded for an electromagnetic girl who only knows how to break down cell phones.

I hope we won't let Mr. Kamijou suffer a loss.

Wouldn't that mean Electromagnetic Girl would be slaughtered indiscriminately by her?

"Hey! Miss Fox, what are you laughing at! Your laugh is so sinister!"

"No, it's nothing." He coughed and continued, "Simply put, if we handle this matter today, you'll miss out on an opportunity to max out your third-place favorability rating!"

"The third one must be someone living in the radiance of Academy City!"

Touma Kamijou smiled. "You also said that the third person got involved in events beyond her control in the New Testament because of her contact with me. Isn't the point of telling me all this to prevent such things from happening?"

It's so bright and dazzling!

Miss Fox is going blind!!

Chapter 180 Kurokoto and Mikoto

The sky gradually turned a deep black.

The world, previously obscured by the dazzling sun, began to take shape at this moment, and the moon's shape was already faintly visible, like the upturned mouth of a comical expression.

The remote bridge, far from the city center, has no streetlights and is deserted as time goes by.

Misaka Mikoto rested her hands on the railing, gazing blankly at the city lights gradually coming on, lost in her own sorrow.

In a daze, a little girl, hiding under a quilt, excitedly played with the sparks dancing on her fingertips, appearing in the darkness like a twinkling star in the sky. The little girl looked forward to growing up, becoming strong, and creating her own sky.

In the blink of an eye, a researcher in a white coat kindly explained a disease to the little girl.

Muscular dystrophy.

One of the unexplained and incurable diseases can cause muscles to gradually become immobile. The body becomes completely unable to move, muscles atrophy, and eventually even the heart and lungs lose function.

And at the end, the researcher bent down and whispered to the little girl;

No one else can do it; only your abilities might be able to help patients with muscular dystrophy...

Would you be willing to help a patient like this?

The naive little girl believed this wholeheartedly and handed over what the researchers needed, thinking that this would help more people overcome this incurable disease of unknown cause.

But the research institute went bankrupt, and the DNA information the little girl had given away leaked out, eventually becoming "Defective Electricity," a degraded copy of the "Railgun" developed for military use, and put into production. With just one button, as many as needed could be manufactured at will.

But those Misaka Sisters created weren't even qualified to be weapons; their only purpose was to be killed...

"Why..."

From her chance encounter with the eccentric Misaka 10086, confirming the truth of the urban legend that "the same person can appear more than three times in different places within a short period of time in a single day," to uncovering the Absolute Ability User Project, Misaka Mikoto found herself lost and confused in just one week.

Young Misaka Mikoto only wanted to help more people.

But little did they know that this small wish would become a death warrant for more than 20,000 Misaka Sisters, resulting in the fact that 20,000 people would be killed.

Before she discovered it, nearly ten thousand of her sisters had already died in unknown places, leaving this world without even having a proper look at it.

Like animals raised by humans, whose purpose in life is to satisfy human appetites and then die.

Just thinking about it makes my heart clench, and I can't breathe.

"...If I were killed by Accelerator...would that save some of my sisters?"

Misaka Mikoto was trembling.

Tokiwadai's ace, the third of the Seven at the Top of Academy City, is trembling uncontrollably!

"Well, this kind of thing will never be accepted no matter what!" A loud, carefree voice rang out from the darkness, with an eerily familiar feel... as if it were your own voice speaking in a different tone.

"Who is where?"

Misaka Mikoto had tears in her eyes and looked somewhat haggard.

I feel helpless, thinking of a naive middle school girl who got caught sneaking through her parents' wallets.

"Really, all you need to do is live happily, Onee-sama... As for those experiments, leave them all to me! I'll put an end to them today!" Emerging from the darkness was a girl who looked exactly like Misaka Mikoto.

Just like the Railgun of Tokiwadai, he is full of energy and confidence at all times!

"Little sister..." Misaka Mikoto felt suffocated as if she had fallen into a nightmare, her eyes filled with struggle as she looked at that energetic figure. Misaka 10086. This was the Misaka Sister who had come looking for her, and also the first Misaka Sister that Misaka Mikoto had come into contact with.

She confirmed the true identity of the urban legend and thus investigated the details of the Absolute Ability User Project. In her all-out investigation, she barely caught a glimpse of the mechanical eyes of the sisters as they cleaned up the bodies of their lost comrades. The eyes then transformed into a pair of invisible hands that tightly gripped Misaka Mikoto's throat!

"I'll say it!" Misaka 10086, Misaka Kuroko, had veins bulging on her forehead, extremely angry.

No, it's not because of Misaka Mikoto's current vulnerable state, but because of the Level 14 Project, because of Accelerator, because of the Tree Diagram designer, and because of the masterminds behind this project...

"Just you wait! You high and mighty masters of darkness! Starting with Accelerator from the Absolute Power Project! We'll drag you down step by step!"

"Wake up right now! This isn't the look you should be making on your older sister's face!!"

*Slap! Slap!* Both hands slapped Misaka Mikoto's cheeks hard!

"It hurts so much?" Misaka Mikoto's eyes were filled with tears, but her trembling body did not subside, and she was still immersed in the nightmare.

No matter how strong she is, Misaka Mikoto is just an ordinary middle school girl... she's just better at breaking down other people's electronics!

"Listen up! The experiment you're worried about—the one where the white-haired, red-eyed lolicon kills 20,000 girls to gain experience and level up—will end today. The researchers will be dismissed, the experimental data will be destroyed, and the girls will be sent to treatment centers around the world for physical adjustments to treat the damage caused by using drugs to stimulate their growth! So you don't need to worry about us anymore. Just be with Kuroko and that's enough!" It was a voice full of disappointment and frustration.

It seems to be addressed to Misaka Mikoto, but it also seems to be addressed to herself.

Misaka 10086's resentment was almost overflowing from the screen, appearing before the people monitoring her.

"You mean Shirai Kuroko, right? She's a Level 4 esper like me, a Space-type user," Kihara Azuki said, her tone tinged with disdain.

"Hmm, Misaka Mikoto's personal mount, Shirai Kuroko." Miss Fox glanced at Kamijou Touma.

Kamijou Touma immediately jumped back reflexively, crossed his arms, and said warily, "I don't know any Shirai Kuroko, nor do I have any cognitive impairment regarding this person!"

Mr. Kamijou has confirmed that he does indeed have a cognitive impairment regarding someone, but treatment will have to wait until the cooldown of his cross-world travel ends.

Yes, that's what Miss Fox said.

Miss Fox discovered that while using someone else's portal to travel to another world doesn't trigger a personal cooldown, returning does. Since Miss Fox doesn't want to go back yet, she'll have Misaki Shokuhou (create a few rivals for her) wait a while!

"Don't worry, you and Shirai Kuroko really have no connection." Miss Fox smiled happily.

"Really?" But Kihara Tsuki didn't believe it.

"Judging from your smile, it seems there's more to it than that, isn't there?"

"Just like you, in the battle for the tree-like map designer and the remnants after the cage, you went up against Shirai Kuroko... Well, when you almost killed Shirai Kuroko, this ordinary high school student barged in, stopped you, and then saved you as well."

Kihara Tsurugi's expression changed, and she snorted coldly.

Miss Fox's smile grew even more delightful! Suddenly, she paused, noticing a lazy, rascal-like white-haired creature that had entered the arena below.

"Ah, the actors are entering..."

On the tablet's monitor, Misaka Kuroko was also on her way.

Chapter 181 The Experiment Has Only Just Begun

The boy, carrying a cheap plastic bag from a convenience store in one hand and a steaming can of coffee in the other, staggered to the agreed-upon testing location. He looked like a skinny hoodlum.

The first impression this boy gives is that he is white, white, white, and more white.

His messy, unkempt hair and sickly pale skin stood out starkly against his black shirt. He looked so frail, as if a gust of wind could knock him over, making it impossible to believe that this was Accelerator, the highest-ranking esper in Academy City.

Edwards later described him as "a person who had made a great mistake in the past, who was tormented by his sins, and who wanted to repent and walk the right path."

"His codename is Accelerator, his parents are unknown, and his real name has five characters but no one knows it. Touma Kamijou speculates that it is Yuriko Suzushina."

"Accelerator is actually a woman!?" Kihara Tatsuki was very surprised.

"Hey! Mr. Kamijou has no memory of that! Don't try to frame me!"

Miss Fox glanced at Touma Kamijou, gave a disdainful smile, and continued:

"Ranked first among the seven Lv.5s in Academy City, Accelerator's ability is not actually vector manipulation. Vector manipulation is just like Imagine Breaker, which is a part of his ability."

Furthermore, while Accelerator's individual abilities are not as valuable for research as the second-ranked End Element, Accelerator's computational power, which surpasses that of the last six level 5 beings combined, gives him greater research value than End Element.

He is known as the "strongest in Academy City," and is therefore often harassed.

His initial motivation was to prevent others from being crippled by challenging him, and he craved "absolute" power, gradually shutting down his emotions in the process. He became withdrawn and friendless.

And thus, within the Absolute Power Plan, as the killings increased, his mentality gradually became twisted... Now, Accelerator has probably almost forgotten why he wanted to become Level 6 in the first place.

Miss Fox looked at Touma Kamijou.

Kamijou Touma clenched his fists tightly, his whole body exuding a tense atmosphere, but he didn't say anything, though it was clear what he wanted to do.

Miss Fox smiled and said, "Now, it's time for Accelerator's hero to wake him up."
