No wonder.
[Reply] Reading a person's "existence," and even the memories that this body has experienced, is disguised as a time-reversal magic.
Nangong Xuan calmly withdrew his hand, feeling a massive influx of knowledge flooding into his brain.
The gates of magic have been opened.
In the world of A Certain Magical Index, magic holds a similar status to Haki in One Piece. Later on, monsters roam freely, and the superpowers of Academy City become utterly inadequate; without magic, one isn't even qualified to participate in the battle.
The so-called "superpowers"—the alternative magical system constructed by Aleister—will ultimately return to their origins. This is the case with Accelerator in the original work, with only Haruno Umi, a holistic ability user, being somewhat different.
The magic side claims that one can become a demon god simply by correctly deciphering the "103,000 grimoires," but in reality, this process is extremely complex, involving magical training and ritualistic advancement, as well as the attainment of a higher rank. It's just as unreliable as the science side's claim of a "SYSTEM" (Level 6).
Otherwise, if the Anglican Church were to remove the collar, wouldn't Index be an artificial demon? In reality, she is ultimately just a "catalog," free to search and access the grimoires in her mind, but her interpretations cannot be guaranteed to be correct.
There are more than a hundred interpretations of the book "The Book of Law" alone.
First came the demons and gods, and their deeds evolved into the many myths and legends of later generations. For mortals to cross this threshold is as difficult as ascending to heaven.
In any case, Nangong Xuan found another path to godhood besides the Digital Demon God.
The incompatibility between magic and superpowers remains a huge problem. He was already severely corrupted just by trying to access an original text within his mind.
The brain is shaking!
[Religious Barrier], Index uses this unwavering faith to protect her mind and soul.
My word is courage!
Nangong Xuan gritted his teeth, his face contorted with the immense mental burden.
Superpowered individuals only believe in "personal reality." Their willpower, like a "telekinetic bullet," can withstand even the corruption of the original texts, and they possess an unbreakable "mental barrier."
It turns out it was the protection of the Queen Bee.
"Little Nangong, what's wrong?"
Tsukuyomi Komoe noticed his unusual behavior and looked worried. She knew that the side effect of the [Reply] was to distract from the pain.
Nangong Xuan smiled easily.
"fine."
"It actually withstood the contamination of the [Original Text]. At the very least, it can use [Reply] to revert its brain's state." Ya Niang finally appeared.
The two silver-haired beauties, both with "silk" in their names, looked quite like sisters when they stood together.
"If you want to contaminate my brain, bring me several more worlds' worth."
Nangong Xuan stared at Ya Niang, then composed himself.
The two seemed to have become riddles, but thankfully the [Automatic Scripture] hadn't figured them out.
Only those who lack talent can use magic.
That being said, the mutual repulsion between superpowers and magic was created by Aleister himself, in order to make the AIM field, which spread throughout the world, repel magic and achieve the goal of creating an artificial celestial realm.
Furthermore, the brain structure of students who have undergone ability development is different. Once magic is used, the magical energy extracted from the body cannot flow normally, causing blood vessels throughout the body to burst.
Nangong Xuan developed his brain domain through "improvement." In other words, the inability to use magic is the price of his powerful computational abilities.
However, I already possess the magic of another world.
The healer copied this world's magic system and was still digesting it. Upon successfully accessing the magical knowledge, a new ability awakened—[Degradation].
Instant death magic; any enemy touched will die instantly, comparable to the classic "Mystic Eyes of Death Perception" in anime. If I had acquired this skill earlier, the Slasher would have been instantly killed, and even Accelerator in his normal state probably wouldn't have been able to [Reflect].
In a scientific context, this tactic increases the enemy's "entropy." The human body tends towards disorder and chaos, then completely collapses. Unfortunately, there aren't many people left in the world of A Certain Magical Index who deserve to die.
Otherwise, we could let those scumbags from the Kihara clan experience it for themselves.
After that……
Nangong pressed one hand against his head, releasing a faint green light, and used [Netherworld Soul Chaser] to read the target's brain structure, then modified himself.
"Ping—"
Improved (Heal)!
I've got the complete memory!
People with hyperthymesia store long-term memories in the left frontal lobe and the occipital region at the back of the brain, losing the ability to "forget".
As expected, it should be able to offset the passive forgetfulness debuff from [Recovery]. The painlessness hasn't been cured, and now another ailment is afflicting me.
The suffering of hyperthymesia lies in the inability to forget past experiences, feelings, and pain.
Everyone has the instinct to forget pain and sorrow in order to move on from the shadows of the past. This is why women who have experienced the pain of childbirth are still willing to have more children.
Anyway, I can't feel the pain, and I can't remember it.
Two negatives make a positive.
If Nangong Xuan wants to forget something, he can simply delete it using [Psychological Mastery]. A complete hedonist, he doesn't care at all.
Arista's eyes sparkled with wonder.
In this way, the man stole 103,000 grimoires without anyone noticing. A Certain Scientific Railgun's *Index of Forbidden Books* doesn't have a collar!
It doesn't seem to have any significance yet, but things are getting interesting. Can another "me" incorporate this change into the "plan"?
Touma Kamijou and Index looked at the black-haired youth.
"Thank you, I haven't had a chance to ask you yet..."
"My name is Nangong Xuan, and I am a doctor."
"Huh?" Kamijou was taken aback. "I think I saw him on the new semester's roster. So he's not a ghost student after all."
Alessa said with a grin, "I am the overseeing chairman of Academy City."
"real or fake?"
At this moment, the shy Kazakiri Hyouka had already retreated back to the Imaginary Number area. Meanwhile, the threat of death posed by [Imagine Breaker] was subtly altering her body.
"Unknown magicians, is it you who targeted Index and stole the [Mobile Church]?" A cold female voice came from outside the window.
Under the moonlight, a stunningly beautiful young woman stood on the apartment railing.
Standing over 1.75 meters tall, with long, straight black hair tied in a ponytail reaching her waist, she carried a Japanese sword over two meters long, resembling a swordsman from the late Edo period. She wore half-jeans and a pure white T-shirt tied at the hem, revealing large expanses of fair skin.
Alessa laughed and said, "No, I have no interest in any magic books."
I've written them myself, and erotic novels are still more important. Hmm, it wouldn't be bad to fill Index's brain with 103,000 erotic novels.
"It was this wicked woman and that fire-breathing giant uncle who chased me for a whole year!" Index looked frightened.
Teacher Xiaomeng felt heartbroken just listening to this. She wondered how the child had managed to get through the past year.
A bad woman? Maybe.
Seeing that Index was unharmed, a hint of relief flashed across Kanzaki Kaori's eyes, followed by guilt and self-reproach.
Surprisingly, they didn't notice she had changed her clothes; the colors were too similar. Luckily, they managed to sheathe the knife before seriously injuring the girl and switched to attacking with the back of the blade.
Kanzaki said, "I will take back the [Index to Forbidden Books] and the [Mobile Church]."
"Don't think about it!"
Touma Kamijou stood in front of Index, raising his right hand without hesitation, the childish voice still echoing in his mind.
"Would you accompany me to the ends of hell?"
Now I have my answer. I cannot stand by and watch an innocent girl be murdered!
“I heard from Stiyl that your right hand has the ability to dispel magic for some reason. But what I use is not magic.”
No sooner had he finished speaking than Kanzaki drew his sword.
"Chong-"
The invisible "sword energy" instantly sliced through the tatami mat, nearly severing Kamijou's right hand at the root. If she had succeeded, everyone present might have died if she had unleashed [Hidden Illusion].
Touma Kamijou rolled away, narrowly avoiding the attack. Blood was already flowing freely from his hand.
Nangong thought to himself: [Premonition Perception]?
A combat intuition that is even more advanced than [Sensory Reflexes] is not about analyzing the opponent's psychology, but about sensing changes in the surrounding supernatural power and using "premonitions" to avoid risks in advance.
Invincible in melee combat.
Nangong Xuan was already craving a mother's body. Not just the female lead, he wasn't even letting the male lead off the hook. Couldn't he at least steal the protagonist's halo if he couldn't get the [Imagine Breaker]?
An even greater bloodshed is coming.
Seeing the bad guys fighting in the house, Tsukuyomi Komoe was on the verge of tears and could only tug at Nangong's sleeve.
"Little Nangong..."
"Don't worry, leave it to me."
Kanzaki Kaori was about to pick up the [Mobile Church] when everything went black. Nangong Xuan instantly closed in and grabbed her T-shirt tied in a knot at the chest—it seemed like the easiest place to grab her.
"Boom!"
The seemingly harmless black-haired youth suddenly accelerated to supersonic speed, and before Kanzaki could react, he was grabbed and sent flying.
What's going on? This guy clearly doesn't have any magic, yet his physical strength is like this... Does the science side also have saints?!
