At this moment, shatter the dimensional barrier

If you had come into this world a hundred years earlier, perhaps I would have already reached the end in the direction you pointed out.

A mechanical voice came through, carrying a hint of weariness and regret.

Aleister saw countless fragments of the universe and knew that under the order of heaven, every human, civilization, and fantastical race held their own destiny in their own hands, pursuing their own happiness and ideals.

As long as one's own happiness does not infringe upon the happiness of others, and one's own freedom does not interfere with the freedom of others, then there are no taboos.

Isn't this the world he's always wanted? When he became a magician, he mocked the church, the gods, and the sages, because people would only blindly follow their wrong ideas. These were the shackles and destiny that the gods and sages had put on people.

Besides trying to change his daughter's predetermined fate, he also wanted to break the shackles that gods and sages had placed on people. That's why he resolutely devoted himself to science and personally separated science and magic into two major camps.

One faction represents the old world of magic, bound by fate, while the other represents the new world of science, striving for free will.

Many people were sacrificed in this process, and countless darkness and tragedies were caused, but in order to achieve his goal, he had stuffed his conscience into the deepest part of darkness.

“Good people, bad people, the world is never a binary of good and evil,” Luo Sheng said. “I have returned fate completely to all living beings, so there is no absolute good or evil. Ultimately, fate is something that people have to walk out.”

"The demon's influence on reality has been lifted, and all destinies are now returned to individual will."

The 'ideological truth' of the A Certain Magical Index universe has been half-mastered by Los Saint, thus directly eliminating the influence of the Demon God's uncontrollable 'cosmology' on reality.

However, the demons were unaware of this, as they remained obediently in their 'secluded world'.

Even if they realize that the world has changed and they emerge from seclusion to enter reality, the real universe will not be distorted or collapsed because of them.

As God, the God of Truth, the place where Los Santos resides is Heaven. How could mere legal principles possibly affect the realm of the God of Truth?

"Hmph, how shameless. As an angel, you actually hide when you see me." Luo Sheng snorted coldly, a thought flashing through his mind.

A platinum-gold humanoid figure was instantly pulled out from behind Aleister and suddenly knelt down on the ground.

The humanoid light and shadow is an energy life form composed of the AIM diffusion field energy of 180 million espers in Academy City. However, it is not the main body, but a split spirit, just like the wanderers summoned in the Type-Moon world.

【I apologize, God, I meant no harm, nor did I intend to blaspheme you.】 The light and shadow emotions were like ocean waves, the first time in His billions of years of existence that He had such emotions, the absolute superiority of His person made Him humbly prostrate on the ground.

[It is merely out of awe of Your glory that we consider it too impolite to pay homage to Your true form with only a fragment of your spirit.]

He is an archangel born from the phase of pure physical laws of nature, and the only archangel of the pure physical world.

His rank is second only to the demon gods who have become the 'gods of magic', but he despises those 'demons'. In his view, demon gods are nothing more than false gods who have stolen the power of the 'gods' to ascend to the throne.

He had never seen the God He spoke of, but God was there.

Previously, He only felt that it was ineffable and unknowable, but through the information that appeared in Aleister's spiritual world, He learned what God was, and that God is truth itself.

“Aivas, as an angel of the purely physical world, naturally harbors an extreme rebellion against the mystical side.” Los Saint looked at Aiwas, but his gaze was already fixed on Aiwas’s true form within the phase in which Aiwas was born.

【I……】

“Alright, Aiwass, if you consider yourself an angel, then do what an angel should do,” Los Saint said.

Aiwass is a fun-loving angel. The reason he was summoned by Aleister was to see the ultimate amusement: 'mortals killing gods'.

And she's a gossipy, foul-mouthed person who can drive people crazy with her words, and she can't keep any secrets, just babbling on and on like spilling beans.

Aiwas's rank has reached the 'legal level' and is not just an ordinary 'legal level'. If he were in the Little Garden, he would be in the upper-middle rank among the three digits.

It seems that few of the powerful angels under him have normal personalities; they're all rather abstract.

After Luo Sheng finished speaking, his figure faded away.

"May your supreme will endure forever in the world." A mechanical voice announced.

Only after Los Saint left did Aiwas rise from his crawling position.

"May the glory of the Lord endure forever."

Aiwas's excitement did not subside; on the contrary, it grew even more intense.

From the very beginning, He was a blasphemous angel, and He always believed it to be so.

After all, in His view, that Christian demon was nothing more than a false God who had stolen God's power.

The angels in the celestial phases created by that false god were aliens to Him, not fellow human beings.

Sometimes He would fall into deep thought, spanning billions of years, wondering if God truly existed, since the false God was already gone when He was born.

Now He understood that He Himself was not a blasphemous angel, but a rebellious angel against the mystery. The true God is one who is born of divine power, whether visible or invisible, existent or nonexistent.

Science and physics are also forms of divine power, therefore they are orthodox angels of God from beginning to end.

All beings that are called 'angels' are born of the will of 'God,' whether they are born that way or acquired later in life.

Angels, in full, are 'messengers who convey the will of Heaven'.

God may not be the true God, but the principles of Heaven are definitely the true God.

"Heh heh, Aleister, what will you do next under the will of my lord?" Aiwass let out a pleasant laugh, his voice hoarse, like an old television with a bad signal.

【Do nothing, wait.】Aleister’s voice came through the microphone, unexpectedly calm.

"The magic is called the Beast of Revelation, meaning that the Beast of the End of the World failed to bring an end to the demon god who usurped the position. Your existence, your life is utterly boring, like a clown who has fallen on a stage, hehehe." Not getting the entertainment he wanted, Evas immediately started swearing at Aleister.

【Hehe…】Aleister didn’t reply, but just chuckled lightly, seemingly mocking Aiwass.

His relationship with Aiwass was merely one of mutual exploitation; he never controlled Aiwass's contract.

Ultimately, Aiwass's response that he would dictate the 'Book of Law,' which contains blasphemous knowledge, was merely out of curiosity after seeing an ant write numbers on the ground.

Aiwass didn't get the story he wanted from him, and since he couldn't complain about "God," he could only mock him. In this respect, Aiwass was no different from inferior humans.

He knew that the moment God appeared, he and Aiwass had already parted ways.

"Life is utterly boring, Edward Alexander, a man of few words and a few flaws. Good luck to you. I hope you can attract me again in your fleeting life." Aiwass said sarcastically before leaving the windowless building and breaking away from Aleister.

However, Aiwass did not return to the Phase World. After all, he had come to the real world and had a body that could interact with reality, so naturally he did not want to go back.

He wanted to see what kind of magic humanity possessed that made God favor them and enable them to ascend to God's realm in human form.

“My ideal has always been very simple…” Aleister slowly closed his eyes.

All he ever wanted was to bring his daughter, who could not be born alive, into the world so that he could take revenge on the demons who arbitrarily determined the fate of humankind.

He knew he was a twisted person, and becoming a magician meant he was destined to be twisted. In his youth, he was a womanizer, and he had slept with countless women. He was not a good husband, and could even be described as a scoundrel.

But ever since he learned that his first child would not be born alive, his 'fatherly love' has been burning within him, as if it wanted to burn the world to ashes.

He absolutely cannot accept that his child's fate will be predetermined by others.

“Without the constraints of fate… my ideals have been realized, but… I cannot take revenge.” Aleister lamented.

No, it's not that he can't take revenge, it's just that he can't take revenge by any means necessary. If those demons violate the 'Order of Heaven,' then he can take action, and perhaps he can accomplish a 'great feat' at that time.

“Heh…” A cruel smile appeared on Aleister’s lips. The man who worked so hard and longed to succeed at something had his chains broken.

At this point, Academy City has lost its meaning for him.

"Just find anyone to send Academy City out."

Aleister reflected on the changes in Academy City. Perhaps God allowed him to know about the shifts in the timeline, for he saw a group of students travel back in time and change all the tragedies.

"Psychological control? This ability is not worth mentioning, but it seems to be somewhat relevant for serving as a director. Let's give it a try."

Aleister decided to hand over the position of chairman to Misaki Shokuhou, since recognizing the darkness and light of Academy City was a necessary condition.

Darkness alone will inevitably lead Academy City to the fate of 'Atlantis'; light alone will inevitably engulf Academy City in darkness.

However, he needs to observe for a while. If he is unable to suppress the various forces in Academy City, the chairman will definitely be sidelined, and Academy City will become a mere shell of its former self.

"Let's temporarily elevate the weight to the position of 'Acting Chairman'."

……

Second school district.

Misaki Shokuhou, Mikoto Misaka, Kuroko Shirai, and Ai Mitsuaki arrived at this school district, which was isolated by a soundproof wall.

This school district is full of testing grounds for explosives or weapons, and it is one of the most classified school districts.

Of course, there are also many high-rise buildings here, but it lacks the vibrant atmosphere of the Seventh School District. Entering the Second School District from other school districts requires ID registration, and even spies from major countries would have to go through a lot of trouble to enter this school district.

The four of them had arrived not far from a tall building shaped like a cross, with a disc-shaped astronomical observation dome at the top.

Of course, this was just a cover; in reality, it was an isolated experimental floor used for research that could not be leaked.

At this time, Misaki Shokuhou was unaware that Aleister had promoted her to 'Acting Chairperson,' giving her the authority to make plans for all institutions and armed forces in Academy City.

She even has the authority to order the "Dark Side" to carry out violent purges against each member of the "Overall Council".

“It seems there really is another version of us during this time period…” Misaka Mikoto looked at a black sedan that had just parked in front of the ‘Talent Workshop’ building.

Misaki Shokuhou stepped out of the car, wearing a dark green lab coat, but this Misaki Shokuhou was just an elementary school student.

“Speaking of which, Shokuhou, you really did wear padding. It’s impossible for your breasts to grow from flat to that size in just a year and a half!!!” Misaka Mikoto looked at Shokuhou Misaki’s chest and mocked her as if it were perfectly natural.

Chapter 365 Two Misaki Shokuhou Meet, Level 6 Personal World

"Heh, I can understand that Misaka-san can't understand the difference between truth and falsehood. After all, the less you have, the more you care about things. I'm sorry for making you feel inferior, Misaka-san. Ah~ but I forgive you." Misaki Shokuhou waved her hand dismissively, glancing at Misaka Mikoto's flat chest with a hint of smugness in her eyes.

A year ago, she was indeed very concerned about her breasts, but she discovered that she had the ability to regulate her body's secretory glands, which promoted her development. She just didn't expect that she would develop too much.

Furthermore, the size that has already grown cannot be reversed, which makes it even more difficult for her to exercise; she becomes breathless after running 100 meters.

"Heh, fake is fake, no matter what, it can't become real." Misaka Mikoto crossed her arms. It was definitely padded; how could it have grown that much in just over a year?

"This isn't the time to talk about everyday things," Mitsuhiro complained. "Shokuhou, what should we do next?"

What would happen if we connected with ourselves at this point in time?

"Could this trigger any time paradoxes, such as the possibility that only one version of oneself can exist within a given time period?"

"I don't know, you should ask Professor Luo Sheng about this." Misaki Shokuhou frowned slightly and said softly, "Professor, can you hear me?"

[Yes, but this is just a temporal echo I left behind in advance, since you are constantly changing the course of time.]

There is no situation where only two people exist at the same time.

But let me remind you again, any decision you make now will change the fate of many, many people.

Those who were meant to be born will disappear, and those who were meant to die will live on. When making choices, you must think carefully.

“I understand, teacher,” the four said in unison.

"Teacher is truly powerful. Level 6 time manipulation, the ability to change the outcome of everything." Shirai Kuroko said enviously, "If I had that ability, no, even just Level 4 time manipulation, I could prevent everyone from getting hurt during routine patrols."

"Speaking of which, how exactly does one become a Level 6?" Misaka Mikoto asked with a mixture of longing and confusion: "I've never heard of any theory about becoming a Level 6 in Academy City."
