The Legend of Level 0 in Academy City

He ignored the incessant chatter of Kakine Teitoku and instead turned to Misaka Mikoto, saying:

“Mikoto, you can see that you’ve come out too, right? Your abilities are useless against that guy, and you’ll only be a hindrance if you’re here. So, go find Accelerator… He should be at home; only he can defeat Kakine Teitoku.”

This morning at breakfast, Touma Kamijou mentioned that he was going on a trip to Italy.

According to the original timeline, it did indeed come to the time of the 'Queen's Fleet Incident'.

Therefore, knowing that Touma Kamijou might have already left, Inoue Hideka only mentioned Accelerator and did not mention her best friend.

"You mean you want me to run away? You bastard! No way! I said I would..."

The words "I will protect you" were on the tip of Misaka Mikoto's tongue, but she swallowed them back down.

It wasn't just because she was shy, but also because she knew that the boy in front of her had amnesia and didn't remember this incident.

A hint of sadness flashed in her eyes, but Misaka Mikoto stood stubbornly in place, without saying a word, but her stance was clear: she would stay here!

boom!!!

The attack came from Kakine Teitoku's wings.

As Misaka Mikoto and Inoue Eika were speaking, the enormous wings expanded and extended at an even faster speed than before!

Then, with a whoosh, it struck Inoue Hideka, who was holding a red cross.

I clearly saw the wings growing bigger and the wings flapping towards me, but I couldn't react in time!

The moment Inoue Hideka had the thought of dodging, the white wings had already sent him and the red cross flying!

Chapter 326 If you keep acting tough, I'll just have to collect your man's corpse.

"How pathetic! Do you still have the interest to talk about love at a time like this? Vulgar people... I truly feel sorry for you from the bottom of my heart."

Kakine Teitoku smiled contemptuously as he walked forward, looking at Inoue Hideka and Misaka Mikoto with a mocking gaze.

The situation suddenly changed. By the time Misaka Mikoto reacted, Inoue Eika had already been sent flying more than ten meters away, only stopping when she crashed into a wall in the distance.

Misaka Mikoto rushed over anxiously and helped Inoue Eika up.

Whether it was from being hit by the red cross or from being injured by hitting the wall, Inoue Hideka's forehead was bleeding.

Red liquid slowly flowed down his left cheek from his black hair, past the corner of his eye.

She looked quite ferocious, but Misaka Mikoto felt no fear whatsoever; all she felt was worry and...heartache.

"How are you? Are you alright?"

With the help of Misaka Mikoto, Inoue Eika grabbed the red cross beside her and used it to steady herself.

The pain in his head and the tingling sensation of something flowing down his cheeks told him that he was bleeding.

Blood flowed into his eyes, blurring his vision, and Inoue Hideka couldn't help but close his left eye.

The soreness in my body wasn't unbearable. To be honest, although I don't have a clear memory of it, the pain was nowhere near as bad as when I fought Accelerator.

"Cough cough!"

Facing Kakine Teitoku, who seemed completely unconcerned about him and walked towards him with an air of ease, and Misaka Mikoto, who was looking at him with concern, Inoue Hideka coughed twice to catch his breath. He looked directly at Kakine Teitoku, but said helplessly to Misaka Mikoto:

“Why can’t you understand… Mikoto? I know you don’t want to run away, and I understand your desire to fight alongside me… But to be stubborn in the face of an insurmountable enemy is reckless. To cling to your own ideas when there’s a better way is inflexible! And…”

While speaking, Inoue Hideka glanced around, searching for something useful.

Then quietly point your palm at the target—

bass!

Instantly, the sound of something cutting through the air rang out.

Inoue Hideka used his magnetic gloves to pull a chair over from a distance. At the same time, he suddenly pushed Misaka Mikoto with his other hand, shoving her into the recliner while she was listening to him and didn't understand what was happening.

Immediately afterwards, the bench, manipulated by magnetic gloves, was pushed away into the distance, and a shout was made towards Misaka Mikoto:

"Besides, I'm a man! If you admit you're a woman, then you better stay behind your man and leave any problems you can't solve to him! If you keep acting tough, then you can just wait to be collecting your man's corpse!!"

Misaka Mikoto, flying backwards in an unknown direction, ignored the pain caused by being forcibly thrown at her from behind, and stared at the familiar face that was getting further and further away.

Red liquid continued to flow down his face, and now, that familiar face bore an unfamiliar expression.

It is true ferocity and undeniable steadfastness.

Misaka Mikoto understood that although what he just said was shameless and nonsensical, he was serious.

If I don't do as he says at this point, then I might really have to collect his corpse.

Boom!

After the bench was out of Inoue Hideka's control range, it flew forward a little further due to inertia before finally coming to a stop.

Misaka Mikoto endured the soreness in her body, stood up, and clenched her fists in resentment.

On the other hand, regardless of whether Misaka Mikoto was truly persuaded by Inoue Eika to go and seek reinforcements, Kakine Teitoku could not allow Misaka Mikoto to leave.

Using his ability, Kakine Teitoku's body sped toward Misaka Mikoto at a speed exceeding the speed of sound.

However, Kakine Teitoku's actions were within Inoue Eika's expectations. Before Kakine Teitoku's actions, Inoue Eika had already used magnetic force to pull herself to the open space between Kakine Teitoku and Misaka Mikoto, where she stood with a red cross and looked at Kakine Teitoku with great seriousness.

Noticing Kakine Teitoku's actions, Inoue Hideka also grabbed a trash can from the side and threw it at Kakine Teitoku, who was flying towards her.

"Tsk! They actually use such disgusting things as weapons!"

Inoue Hideka wasn't sure if Kakine Teitoku was a germaphobe, but after seeing that the object of attack was a trash can, Kakine Teitoku didn't continue charging forward and instead dodged it.

The trash can passed over Kakine Teitoku and landed with a thud a short distance away.

There were hardly any pedestrians on the street, and Inoue Eika didn't see anyone nearby when she arrived.

Around the time Misaka Mikoto and Kakine Teitoku started their battle, she had already hidden in a safe corner to watch the excitement.

Misaka Mikoto is kind-hearted and would never allow ordinary people to be involved in the battle. However, she doesn't have the time or inclination to pay attention to that right now.

She no longer has the energy or the inclination to pay attention to the ordinary people around her who may be unrelated to her.

Looking at Inoue Hideka, who stood blocking her and Kakine Teitoku's path, Misaka Mikoto's eyes were filled with worry. She gritted her teeth, clenched her fists, and muttered under her breath:

"Damn it! You bastard, how dare you take advantage of me! I'll definitely teach you a lesson you won't forget! So..."

Finally, Misaka Mikoto took a serious look at the back of that idiot who was shouting that he was her man, and resolutely turned around.

As she turned her head, her lips parted slightly, and a faint, almost imperceptible sentence drifted from her mouth.

"Don't die!"

------

'Group' headquarters.

Qiushan Yan stared at the screen, her eyes burning with anxiety.

On the screen, Misaka Mikoto leaves, leaving Inoue Eika alone to face Kakine Teitoku, the second-ranked figure in Academy City.

At first, he could put up some resistance with the red cross in his hand, but gradually, Kakine Teitoku's attacks became more and more varied.

Using those strange six-winged white wings, they have a wide range of methods, including flying, striking, slashing, and even creating gales and shockwaves.

At this point, Inoue Hideka can only escape by relying on the high-defense greatsword in her hand and the mobility of her magnetic gloves.

But judging from the situation, it's clear he can't hold on for long.

That's why Akiyama Yan was anxious.

On another computer, the screen was changing rapidly. Akiyama Yan pulled up all the surveillance footage of Misaka Mikoto going to Inoue Eika's house, tracking Misaka Mikoto's whereabouts in real time to ensure the current situation.

If he could, he would definitely call Accelerator right now and ask for his help.

Accelerator is also a formal member of the 'Group', which Akiyama Yan knows, but Accelerator has never been to the headquarters, so of course he could not possibly know Akiyama Yan.

However, that's not the key point; the main issue is that she doesn't have a universally accepted phone number.

Previously, the 'Group's' data had been lost. A lot of confidential information obtained due to the special status of the former director was lost and not replaced.

In the monitoring room, only Akiyama Yan was present.

After receiving a call from Inoue Hideka and learning about the situation on the ground, Akiyama Yan reported the matter to the grassroots representative, Yuki Toshikawa.

After informing the 'New Moon' group of their current situation, Yuki Toshikawa has already led his fully armed subordinates to the location.

The 'group' that Inoue Hideka belongs to is a little different from other secret service organizations.

Normally, grassroots members would never voluntarily intervene in battles between formal members.

That's too far removed from them; they're just small fry. A battle between gods isn't something small fry can easily interfere with.

But the 'group' is different. Although Inoue Hideka doesn't spend much time with them on a daily basis, he has never put on airs.

On the contrary, they treated them very kindly.

Therefore, these people took the initiative to pick up weapons to help their rare and good boss.

Even so, Akiyama Yan's brows remained furrowed.

Based on her mental calculations, Akiyama knew that Yuki Toshikawa's trip would be of no use.

Based on the group's location, the battle was probably already over before they reached the battlefield.

Either Inoue Hidekazu is killed by Kakine Teitoku, or Accelerator kills Kakine Teitoku, or...

After Inoue Hidekazu was killed by Kakine Teitoku, Accelerator killed Kakine Teitoku in turn.

Chapter 327 The Desperate Girl Who Was Once Saved

Boom!

Bang bang bang!

Misaka Mikoto pounded on Inoue Eika's door.

Actually, Misaka Mikoto didn't quite believe Inoue Hidekazu's claim that Accelerator was at home.

After all, she simply couldn't imagine someone like Accelerator cooking.

Because lunchtime is relatively short, most students eat lunch at the school cafeteria or bring their own lunch.

According to Misaka Mikoto, Saten Ruiko brings her and Inoue Eika's lunchboxes every day, and then eats them at school with Uiharu Kazari, who also brings her own lunchbox.

Occasionally, when a few of us have lunch together, we'll make arrangements in advance.
