The Legend of Level 0 in Academy City

In the past, when she was on missions with Shirai Kuroko, she would only stay in the rear to provide support instead of going to the scene, so as not to burden her colleague who was injured while saving her!

This time is no different. She knows her weaknesses and absolutely does not want to see the same scene happen again!

"In that case, shall we go and take a look later? If we just watch from the outside, we shouldn't be affected. If we're ever needed, at least we can help out."

Seeing that Haruharu Kazari remained silent, Frenda continued.

"Can……"

"Hmm... I can go by myself, so I won't go in early spring."

"No! I want to go too! At least I need to see for myself that Saten-san is safe!"

"Then hurry up and bandage me up. The ambulance you called still hasn't arrived!"

------

"Huh? You brat! Are you kidding me?! You dare to get distracted and take care of those insignificant people during a fight! Kid! Are you looking down on me?! Huh—?"

Mugino Shizuri looked up at the black-haired girl floating in the air and roared angrily.

"You bastard! If you've got the guts, then stop jumping around like that..."

The rude insults stopped.

Mugino Shizuri's body was swept up by the sudden gust of wind.

Saten Ruiko ignored Mugino Shizuri's insults; she was focused on manipulating the atmosphere to interfere with Mugino Shizuri's actions.

But she also knew that it was impossible to defeat the fourth-ranked student in Academy City with such an attack.

No superhuman is simple, and she could tell that just from the power she possessed after activating her electrodes.

And this was only her third time using electrodes.

The first time was on the day I received it, and I tried it out with great excitement.

The second time was when she helped Ying Shang Ying Hua withstand Misaka Mikoto's electric shock.

The third time is now.

To be honest, she wasn't very skilled at using her abilities.

Because it was turned off shortly after each use, there was no opportunity or time to verify the operational methods of some capabilities that seemed feasible to me.

Even so, she could feel how powerful she was after activating the electrodes.

It was a far cry from the powerless self of the past, nor the powerful self that the later version of himself could have imagined.

So, just how powerful are true superpowered individuals?

At the very least, it's definitely not something I can solve with just a tornado!

The fact that Shiori Haru and the injured Frenda were helpless against this wind doesn't mean that the fourth person on the other side was helpless as well.

really……

Saten Ruiko cautiously watched the brown-haired girl whose body was swaying precariously in the gale.

Suddenly, a huge beam of light shot out from the gale.

The brown-haired girl's body was shot backward at an extremely fast speed in the opposite direction of the beam of light as it appeared.

It instantly escaped the clutches of the raging wind.

That is……

Did it use the same principle as itself?

Saten Ruiko watched the brown-haired girl fly backward, thinking to herself.

She can fly in the air using the same principle as a rocket engine, or more specifically, the principle of recoil.

Recoil force: When a system is not subjected to a net external force, momentum is conserved, that is, initial momentum = final momentum. When an object ejects gas, liquid or solid, the ejected object will generate a thrust in the opposite direction. This thrust is called recoil force.

She exhaled gas, while Mugino Shizuri exhaled a substance called 'Atomic Collapse'.

In other words, like her, the brown-haired girl opposite her also possesses the characteristic of high mobility.

The battle between the two highly mobile girls has reached a stalemate, with neither able to gain the upper hand.

However, unlike Mugino Shizuri, Saten Ruiko's ability can easily create area-of-effect attacks.

Mugino Shizuri, on the other hand, needs to use a tool called 'Diffusion Support Semiconductor' to perform area-of-effect shooting.

Moreover, although her attacks are extremely powerful, they require precise aiming at the target in order to harm the opponent.

After observing and verifying these two points over this period of time, Saten Ruiko is quite certain.

In that case, firstly...

While the brown-haired girl was dealing with the air currents surrounding her, Saten Ruiko formulated a strategy that she thought was feasible.

then.

People who were escaping from the building below felt the strong winds that swept through the entire base of both buildings.

The wind howled through the ruins and the bushes on both sides of the street, stirring up large amounts of dust.

The sandstorm, capable of completely obscuring vision two meters ahead, swept towards the brown-haired girl who had just regained her footing, carried by the wind.

"Tsk! You troublesome brat! I'm going to kill you!"

The girl complained impatiently when suddenly a buzzing sound came from beside her, which was extremely piercing!

------

Saten Ruiko manipulated a whirlwind carrying endless sand and dust to blow towards Mugino Shizuri, and the sand and dust quickly buried Mugino Shizuri's body in a yellowish-brown mass.

Although she couldn't see Mugino Shizuri, Saten Ruiko could roughly determine Mugino Shizuri's current location by sensing the erratic flow of air caused by obstructions.

A barely perceptible buzzing sound emanated from Saten Ruiko's hand.

She is compressing air.

The sound gradually grew louder.

A milky-white sphere, visible to the naked eye, appeared in Saten Ruiko's hand, and the sound came from within it.

The buzzing sound kept going, like the sound of an electric drill drilling wood, or the sound of a motor running at high speed.

then.

a moment.

Saten Ruiko pointed her free left hand toward a certain direction behind her and exploded!

After the explosive sound, Saten Ruiko had disappeared from the spot.

Suddenly appearing within the area shrouded by the sandstorm, Saten Ruiko identified the direction of the tea ceremony girl, pointed her palm in a certain direction, and once again disappeared from the spot at a speed imperceptible to the naked eye.

The next moment, he appeared beside the tea-loving girl.

Amidst the billowing sand and obstructed vision, the brown-haired girl, hearing a buzzing sound, suddenly turned her head and discovered that less than half a meter to her side, the black-haired girl was already raising a milky-white spherical object and throwing it at her!

Suddenly, two questions flashed through the mind of the tea-haired girl.

Launching atomic collapse at the black-haired girl?

Or, should we use the recoil force from atomic collapse to avoid it?

Regardless of which one, if Mugino Shizuri were to attempt an instantaneous launch without adjusting the power, he would be overwhelmed by the immense backlash.

Speaking of which...

He didn't harbor any deep grudge against the girl; his desire to kill Frenda stemmed solely from her leaking mission information to those close to the target of this mission.

Although I'm very angry, is it really worth killing the other person at all costs?

However, if the high-speed beam of the particle wave is not fired in an instant, it is impossible to dodge it using only body speed.

So, is that really the case? Even if you're going to die, you'll take someone down with you, right?

Therefore, she decided to launch her proud ability at all costs.

But that moment of hesitation.

Mugino Shizuri assured that it really only took her a split second to think of these things, however…

In that instant, the highly compressed air had already hit her body.

burst!

The sound of compressed air exploding came from the chest of the brown-haired girl, almost at zero distance!

Chapter 290 As long as he is there, there is nothing to fear!

The moment the milky-white ball in her hand hit the opponent's chest, Saten Ruiko released the compression on the milky-white ball.

The atmosphere, which had been out of control, instantly returned to its original state.

Just like when a balloon bursts, but with pressure dozens of times greater than when a balloon bursts!

The brown-haired girl was instantly sent flying!

Bang bang bang!

The girl spun around on the ground after the impact, her body finally coming to a stop. The green dress she was wearing was also shattered from the explosion.

However, the sandstorm had not yet dissipated, and there were few people nearby, so there was no issue of whether or not one would be exposed.

Of course, if someone actually saw her using tea to vent her anger, and if she survived this time, whether she would dispose of all the witnesses is another matter entirely.

On the other side, Saten Ruiko breathed a sigh of relief after seeing the brown-haired girl lying on the ground and not getting up again.

She wasn't worried that the girl would die.

Because at the last moment, she showed mercy.

Relinquishing control of the compressed air and letting it explode freely was an action she took because she did not intend to kill anyone.

If she really wanted to kill the tea-haired girl, she only needed to control the highly compressed air to crash into the girl's body. The cutting force brought about by the extremely compressed air rotating at high speed would definitely turn the girl's body into a pile of minced meat.

The only reason she didn't do it was because she didn't want to kill anyone.

She didn't want to become an executioner with blood on her hands.
