Even if I transform, I will never be captured.

The surrounding noise was a bit loud, and the shop owner was so excited that his voice sounded like it was being squeezed out of his throat, so Satella couldn't hear him clearly. She leaned closer and said, "Could you speak a little louder?"

The shop owner, seeing Satella's ample breasts and slender waist again, swallowed hard and said, "Eight hundred yen each."

"So cheap?" Satella straightened up and asked the shop owner suspiciously, "Is this some kind of fake?"

The shop owner, upon seeing Satella's entire figure clearly—the perfect side profile accentuated by her navy blue jeans—felt his heart skip a beat and quickly protested, "We have official authorization. I can show you the authorization certificate, and look at the material and texture of this pendant..."

"Alright, alright, I believe this is genuine."

Seeing the shop owner's excited face, as if he wanted to show her his business license, Satella had to stop his incessant chatter. She took out her phone and said, "I'll buy this pendant. I'll pay by scanning the code, okay?"

"Yes, you can! You can!"

Upon hearing Satella's words, the shop owner nodded excitedly, as if afraid Satella wouldn't accept them.

But after Satella paid and left, a shop assistant next to her curiously reminded the shop owner, "Boss, didn't someone call to pre-order that frog keychain?"

"Yes!"

The shop owner only then realized that someone had pre-ordered that Gekota keychain for an extra 2,000 yen, and that it was the last one. More importantly, the name left by the person who pre-ordered it was Misaka Mikoto.

If...maybe...perhaps if I remember correctly, the esper (level 5) at Tokiwadai Middle School was named Misaka Mikoto...

Rumor has it that she's a violent girl who kicks vending machines, chases delinquents through the streets, and destroys public facilities with electric shocks...

After realizing what had happened, the shop owner felt like dying and wanted to slap himself hard.

But at that moment, he heard a "clang" sound in his ear.

The shop owner turned around and almost fainted from shock.

A customer browsing the products and a salesperson introducing the products somehow managed to knock over a shelf together!

After finally calming down, the shop owner, on the verge of tears, asked the two frightened people, "What exactly happened? Why did you push over the shelves in the store all of a sudden?"

Upon hearing the shop owner's words, both the shop assistant and the customer stammered for a moment before falling silent.

Neither of them was comfortable explaining, because Satella's face and figure were so stunning, and when Satella leaned over to ask the price, she had bent down a little, so the two of them had caught a glimpse of the lace on her chest. They both shuddered and made that mistake.

While the shop owner was still scolding the staff and customers, Satella had already continued her shopping spree.

"Hmm... this simulated fifth-dimensional kaleidoscope looks pretty good. I'm sure Elise would love it if I gave it to her!"

"I've already bought the gifts for Elise, and I definitely need to send one to Leah too, but what should I send her... That ambitious child, I guess I should send her some useful books?"

"Give Yu-Yu a portable chessboard, she loves playing chess; give Aqua a copy of '100,000 Whys,' since intelligence needs a boost; give Megumin colored contact lenses, heterochromia is a must for chuunibyou; give Darkness a wind-up bandage, she'll definitely like a bandage that tightly binds her body; Kazuma... forget about Kazuma, and we also need to buy some for our friends from 'Kill la Kill' and 'Honkai Impact'..."

Satella is on a shopping spree...

"Whoosh...ha!"

The icy sensation assaulted her brain, causing Satella to hunch her shoulders and kick her legs. But once the intense stimulation subsided, a profound sense of bliss washed over her from the coolness.

"After a long day of shopping, having a cold drink is such a wonderful treat!"

Satella's lovely face blossomed into the most beautiful smile, leaving the waiter carrying the tray completely stunned. It took him a moment to recover before he said:

"Miss, this is the extra-large portion of herb bacon you ordered."

Thank you☆

Satella's favorite food is herb-infused stew, which is also Emilia's favorite food.

Satella, who always defers to her younger sister, and Emilia, who always respects her older sister, only argue over this one thing. Whenever vanilla broil is served, the two of them quickly devour it!

Satella is actually a girl who doesn't ask for much; she can feel incredibly satisfied with just the smallest things.

Just like now, with its icy cold drinks, huge portions of vanilla shaved ice, and the ability to sit in an air-conditioned room on a hot summer day, all of this made Satella feel that the sunshine outside the window was so warm.

but……

It's still a little disappointing.

If only Lia were here.

And everyone...

All the souvenirs she bought were sent back by a freight company. Although those things were no longer with her, Satella realized with remarkable clarity that she, who used to be a homebody, now had so many friends.

Although I have a very good friend, Misaki Shokuhou, here, that guy still hasn't returned my call!

So Satella channeled her grief and anger into her appetite, and quickly devoured the enormous portion of vanilla roast that was piled high on top!

After finishing her meal, Satella didn't rush to leave. Although she planned to kidnap Last Order, Satella set the date for tomorrow.

Because she remembered that on the first day of the Daihasei Festival, due to the "Apostle Cross Incident," Tsuchimikado Motoharu was busy with that all day and definitely wouldn't come to help her.

So today is dedicated to rest and recuperation. We shouldn't wander around too much, otherwise—

"If a classmate sees this..."

As Satella murmured those words, she saw Touma Kamijou outside the glass wall, and just then, Touma turned his head...

The eyes of the two met.

Then, Touma Kamijou lowered his head and looked at himself with a scrutinizing gaze.

He was covered in bruises from trying to win the competition, and his clothes are still covered in bandages and filthy. Meanwhile, in this sweltering heat, he also has to run around dealing with a magician who has broken in from the outside world…

Let's look at Satella.

Sitting neatly dressed in an air-conditioned room, enjoying the double happiness of cold drinks and delicious food in this hot season...

...Touma Kamijou was initially quite timid towards Satella, his major creditor and also incredibly powerful.

but.

Only at this moment.

Kamijou Touma's courage level is at MAX.

Chapter 163 Emilia Makes Her Appearance!

"Alas!"

He was clearly much stronger than Touma Kamijou, and as Touma Kamijou's biggest creditor, he should have had the psychological advantage.

but.

The moment Satella's eyes met Touma's, she immediately felt guilty and let out a pitiful gasp.

She prayed in her heart that Touma Kamijou had only glanced in her direction by chance, and that he hadn't seen her.

However, things rarely go according to one's own will.

Satella was utterly dismayed to discover that after Touma Kamijou glanced in their direction, he immediately stopped and took a detour, preparing to enter through the main entrance.

How to do? !

How to do? !

If Touma Kamijou catches me in the act, I'll definitely be dragged to the Daihasei Festival!

Although Satella is stronger than Touma Kamijou, if she stubbornly resists, there's nothing Touma Kamijou can do.

Ultimately, although Satella enjoys being cunning and sly, she is a person with very sound values.

While all the teachers and students were working hard for the Daihasei Festival, she was the only one slacking off, and she clearly realized that she was wrong.

She is a very reasonable person, and if Touma Kamijou tries to pressure her with the concept of righteousness, she will probably have no choice but to attend the Daihasei Festival.

But she really didn't want to participate in the Daihasei Festival, a sports event!

How to do?

Satella is in a major crisis!

Just as Satella was panicking and didn't know what to do, she suddenly touched something in her jeans pocket...

As Satella took out the object and placed it in front of her, her eyes lit up, and an idea came to her.

……

……

Kamijou Touma and his best friend Tsuchimikado Motoharu struggled to squeeze through the main entrance of the coffee shop.

There's a reason why the word 'squeeze' is used.

The permanent residents of Academy City number 2.3 million, and the number of people who flock in from outside during the Daihasei Festival exceeds this number.

With so many people, it's impossible for them to spend all day shopping or staying at the sports event. So, leisure places like cafes naturally become their gathering places.

When Touma and his friends arrived, the café was already packed with people, and there was even a queue outside.

Therefore, it took Touma a considerable amount of time from discovering Satella to arriving in front of her.

However, none of that matters anymore.

A boy named Touma Kamijou is currently embroiled in a magical incident. One of his accomplices, Stiyl, is suffering from the backlash of magic. Touma and his best friend, Motoharu Tsuchimikado, launch a surprise attack on Orianna, a magician who has infiltrated Academy City, but she manages to escape.

The opponent's formidable fighting power made Touma Kamijou feel troubled; he feared that such a level of strength would be difficult for him to handle.

However, if the girl in front of him were willing to help, then everything would be simple.

After all, that's an existence that even angels can defeat!

Even if the other party is too lazy to participate, you must still make her participate in the sports meet.

Why should I have to run around in this sweltering heat while that guy can sit comfortably in an air-conditioned room drinking cold drinks?

Jealousy caused Kamijou's plasmid to split apart.

"Satella!"

With that shout, Touma slammed his hand on the table with a "bang." He was about to unleash his verbal barrage and use his words and actions to force the other party to submit.

But the girl in front of him opened her mouth and shut him up from all the words he was about to say.

"Um, you were just calling my older sister by her name. Do you know my older sister?"
