Anime, Girlfriend Shokuhou Misaki.

Why did Makoto Haramura choose to talk to Touma Kamijou, that listless, spiky-haired guy, this morning?

It's obvious that finding someone to guide you is much better than finding a gloomy-faced high school student.

The reason was that White Demon noticed Touma Kamijou's abnormality.

She sensed the unusual atmosphere around Touma Kamijou and told Makoto Haramura about it, which is why he chose to talk to Touma Kamijou.

Leaving his phone number and inviting Touma Kamijou were all for this purpose.

It was so that I could observe Touma Kamijou up close.

(If that's the case, he must be the owner of the Imagine Breaker Qi from the urban legend.)

Makoto Haramura's eyes darted around, instantly locking onto Touma Kamijou's identity.

There are many urban legends in Academy City, the most famous of which is the legendary "Imagine Breaker," which can eliminate all superpowers, regardless of their level.

After all, the conditions are very well met.

In the words of the White Demon, Touma Kamijou's power is the power to 'reject the world,' or it can be considered the power to return the world to its original state.

Therefore, Touma Kamijou's power is less about eliminating supernatural abilities and more about restoring the world to its original state, a power similar to time reversal.

As far as this world is concerned, magic seems to be something that should not exist.

Therefore, neither the espers in Academy City nor the magicians outside could affect Touma Kamijou through abnormal power.

The reason for his misfortune is that Imagine Breaker unconsciously eliminates weak "supernatural powers" such as "divine protection" and "the red thread of fate," resulting in Kamijou always encountering unfortunate events.

(Do you think Touma Kamijou has any connection to Aleister?)

(I don't believe Aleister is unaware of this person's affairs.)

Makoto Haramura squinted, biting the straw, and slurped up his cola.

(With so many surveillance cameras, how could that kid not know?)

(Someone like this kid must have some scheme against him by that magician.)

(You might already be under that kid's surveillance.)

Makoto Haramura released the straw he was biting, and the curve of his lips widened even further.

(So ​​what do you think his reaction will be?)

(They know! They should probably just wait and see.)

(Perhaps he deliberately arranged for you two to meet!)

……

Inside the building, a building with no windows or doors, a tale of urban legend.

Aleister was still wearing that oversized green surgical gown, hanging upside down in a tank filled with red liquid.

Countless virtual screens unfolded in front of him.

The screen directly in front of him was showing a live feed of Makoto Haramura and Touma Kamijou.

"what to do?"

A series of intermittent noises, like currents flowing through his ears, echoed in Aleister's mind.

"Let's see how things develop. It's impossible to predict whether it will have a positive or negative impact on the plan at this time."

"If he had any influence on the plan—"

At this point, Aleister paused for a moment.

"Then you will be the one to eliminate him, Aiwass."

……

Without a doubt, if this Kamijou-senpai is an important pawn in the Aleister Project, then Haramura Makoto's contact with him is somewhat against the rules.

However, he wouldn't sever ties with Touma Kamijou right now.

If Aleister truly didn't want him to meet Touma Kamijou, he wouldn't have overlooked the fact that he was at school.

Therefore, he tends to believe that Aleister tacitly agrees to this.

Coincidentally!

He also wanted to learn more about Aleister by getting involved in Aleister's projects.

After all, his understanding of this world is still too shallow, and he wants to know more.

I want to know what Aleister really wants to do.

Who told him to still have to live in this world?

"Junior Haramura, let me treat you next time."

"Although I can't afford to treat you to anything nice."

Leaning back in his chair, patting his slightly protruding belly, Touma Kamijou let out a burp.

"Of course, I will definitely keep my appointment whenever I have time."

Makoto Haramura nodded, but his eyes were fixed on the remaining hamburger meal.

Noticing Makoto Haramura's gaze, Touma Kamijou's slightly tanned face turned slightly red.

He looked like he wanted to say something, but was hesitant to speak.

"That...I..."

"Kamijou-senpai, if you can, please take this meal with you."

"I don't usually eat these kinds of things."

Seeing Touma Kamijou's current predicament and recalling his earlier situation, how could Makoto Haramura not have guessed?

Kamijou Touma immediately let out a sigh of relief.

"Then I will..."

"Touma..."

A girl's voice, filled with a childlike innocence yet brimming with anger, rang out behind Makoto Haramura.

Kamijou Touma, who was opposite him, also froze instantly.

Makoto Haramura turned his head, and the girl who had just made the sound came into direct view of him.

She was a girl with long, silver hair that reached her waist.

The girl was probably around fourteen or fifteen years old.

She wore a pure white silk robe embroidered with coins, reaching all the way to her ankles, and the color was pure white, making it look extremely luxurious.

She was also wearing a nun-style hood.

With a cross hanging around her neck, she was undoubtedly a novice nun by all accounts.

But now, the little nun is behind Makoto Haramura, her silver hair fluttering in the air like the hands and feet of the eldest daughter.

A shadow fell over the upper half of her handsome face as she glared angrily at Touma Kamijou across from her.

"Indy...Kex!"

Kamijou Touma tensed up instantly, his tongue twitching as he spoke.

"Touma, you told me to stay home and wait for you to come back."

"They said you'd come back when the pointer reaches four."

"I waited and waited, but you never came back."

As the girl spoke, her thin shoulders trembled. Her vivid and emotionally charged speech drew curious glances from those around her.

"They've already taken a shower and are looking forward to it."

It was as if a sudden gust of cold wind had blown in, freezing Kamijou Touma completely.

The sharp gazes of the surrounding guests were like arrows piercing through him.

“Miss Index, listen to me, there’s a reason for all this. Please let me explain. Please stop saying such ambiguous things. People are already giving you the wrong look.”

Kamijou Touma shook his head wildly from side to side, cold sweat pouring down his forehead.

Although she often experiences social death, today he felt that he would not only experience social death, but might also be dragged to the police station.

Name: Kamijou Touma

Sex: Male

Age: 16 years old

Charge: Child molestation

He doesn't want this kind of life.

"Touma like this needs to be punished."

The silver-haired little girl opened her mouth, her two rows of white teeth opening and closing, making a crisp sound.

"Wait, Miss Index, could it be that you..."

Upon seeing that familiar starting stance and hearing that familiar voice, Touma Kamijou reflexively shifted his body back a little.

"Ouch——"

"Crack!"

Two crisp sounds rang out, and a black shadow flew over Haramura Makoto's head.

What followed was a scream that almost pierced the entire restaurant.

"—What a misfortune, oh my god!"

……

A few minutes passed, and the commotion subsided.

The silver-haired little girl who was originally biting Touma Kamijou's head is now sitting obediently next to him.

Holding the hamburger that Touma Kamijou was supposed to take home in both hands, she was devouring it.

"Now, please explain to me, Kamijou-senpai, why there is an elementary school girl in your house."

"Depending on the circumstances, I would choose to send you to a security guard I know now."

Although Makoto Haramura was smiling, Touma Kamijou couldn't feel any warmth from him at all.

He lay exhausted on the table.

"I knew it would be like this."

"In short, I can't tell you the details, and I can't explain it clearly either."

"But Index is a girl I rescued by chance, and she has no other family. She can only stay at my house temporarily."

indeed.

His relationship with Haramura Makoto is currently quite good, but since they've only just met, he can't possibly reveal too much to Haramura Makoto without restraint.

More importantly, he had just experienced amnesia, and his memories were not complete; they were all based on notes left by his past self before he lost his memory.

What can I say?

"It certainly seems that way."

Chapter 169 The White Yaksha's Recovery Speed

Makoto Haramura said he could understand Touma Kamijou's reaction.

But is it possible for him to give up?

That's impossible. The moment this silver-haired little girl appeared, in Makoto Haramura's eyes, her value had already surpassed that of Touma Kamijou, the spiky-haired guy.

"Index, how is it? Is it delicious?"

Adopting the same attitude he usually showed towards Fremia, Makoto Haramura gave Index a gentle smile.

"It's delicious, much better than what Touma makes."
