GA: Chapter 112: A Way to Deal with Accelerator, Aleister's Observation
"Ding — Ordinary Group Leader has uploaded a memory copy."
"Ding — Ordinary Group Leader has uploaded a memory copy."
Ordinary Group Leader: "I've uploaded the memory copies for both the Zombie World and Campione. Anyone interested can take a look."
Ordinary Group Leader: "I haven't watched all of Uncle Jiu's world, so there might be some gaps. As for Campione, I only watched the anime, so I don't know the later content either."
There was no helping it; there was simply too much to watch. Campione's anime hadn't captured her interest enough to make her go hunt down the novels after finishing it.
Ordinary Group Leader: "@Electromaster, has that plan for Biribiri been resolved yet?"
Electromaster: "Don't call me Biribiri!"
Electromaster: "As for the plan... how could it be solved so quickly?"
Electromaster: "Depressed .jpg"
She couldn't even begin to imagine a way to defeat Accelerator.
Granted, unfamiliar things would cause calculation errors or even be incalculable for him, but that didn't mean he would just stand there and let her hit him. And she had no way to negate his ability like Kamijou Touma could.
Another point — and the most important one — was that she had far too few points.
She could barely afford a Chakra Seed.
She had been trying to find ways to earn points lately.
But the technology she could access in Academy City wasn't worth much.
Child of Nature: "If you're dealing with Accelerator, the talismans from Uncle Jiu's world might be of some use."
Child of Nature: "No matter what energy system they're infused with, elemental attacks and the like are still based on certain formulas. Just like magic, they would only cause errors in Accelerator's calculations, not be absolutely ineffective."
Child of Nature: "Personally, I recommend purchasing talismans like Comatose Talismans, Curse Talismans, or Control Talismans."
Child of Nature: "The talisman system from another world, or simple auxiliary talismans — I don't think he would have the ability to calculate those."
Ordinary Group Leader: "But even after falling asleep, Accelerator seems to have passive reactions, right?"
Child of Nature: "Then just don't let him wake up."
Child of Nature: "Keep him asleep until he starves to death."
Child of Nature: "Shrug .jpg"
Ordinary Group Leader: "Hiss —"
Lighthouse Richest: "You are truly insidious!"
Lighthouse Richest: "If the Academy's strongest ability user starves to death, that would definitely be major news."
Electromaster: "Wait, let me check the points for these talismans."
Electromaster: "A Comatose Talisman is a hundred points each?"
Electromaster: "Gekota eyes glowing .jpg"
Electromaster: "Hehehehe..."
Electromaster: "I think I can have a good talk with him now."
Electromaster: "Accelerator, you wouldn't want to starve to death, would you?"
Ordinary Group Leader: "Why does that last line make me think of some rather... questionable scenarios?"
Electromaster: "Gekota tilting head .jpg"
Electromaster: "@Child of Nature, is there anything in Academy City that can be exchanged for points?"
Electromaster: "Leaving aside other people's esper abilities and the technology in the research institutes."
Child of Nature: "..."
Child of Nature: "That seems like rather a lot to leave aside."
Child of Nature: "Index can't be considered for now, and since we're still within Academy City..."
I feel like you're intentionally making this difficult for me.
Electromaster: "Gekota looking forward .jpg"
Child of Nature: "If you don't mind, you could try visiting churches. Check the recycle function one by one. If you're lucky and the church you find was established by someone on the Magic Side, or if it happens to contain Magic Side knowledge..."
Child of Nature: "Though the possibility is relatively small."
For now, he couldn't think of any other way.
The magical knowledge in Index's mind was of extremely high value. If humans could learn all that knowledge and understand its ultimate mysteries, they would be but a step away from becoming a Magic God.
If converted into points, it would definitely be a terrifying number.
But there was still some time before the story began, and even if they encountered her, obtaining that knowledge wouldn't be easy.
Accelerator's problem was actually simpler; a hundred points for a Comatose Talisman wasn't much.
Even if he lent it to Mikoto Misaka, it wouldn't be a big deal.
But Mikoto Misaka was currently considering not only the Absolute Esper Level 6 Shift project but also future crises.
Points were quite pressing for her.
Electromaster: "Gekota clapping hands .jpg"
Electromaster: "To think it could work that way!"
Electromaster: "I'm going right now!"
Electromaster: "Wait, does this count as stealing?"
Mikoto Misaka suddenly realized that this didn't seem quite right.
Child of Nature: "..."
Child of Nature: "The chat group's recycle function can make a copy of it, reproducing the knowledge within and then recycling that."
Child of Nature: "It won't cause any harm to the original."
Lighthouse Richest: "Don't be so rigid, Biribiri."
Lighthouse Richest: "Besides, things in ordinary churches can generally be viewed freely, right? It is for preaching, after all."
Turn Da Gu Into Soup: "On this point, I think you should learn from me, Biribiri."
Electromaster: "Then I... I'll go now?"
Mikoto Misaka felt her heart stir. It seemed church books were indeed free to browse. Even if she found a real Magic Side book, it shouldn't be a big deal, since they were the ones who put it there in the first place.
And the chat group's function wouldn't destroy the original.
The Toaru Majutsu no Index World.
Mikoto Misaka had no idea that her current hesitant, stirred appearance was being clearly observed by someone.
Inside a windowless building, a glass container sat in the center, surrounded by various cables.
Within the container, an inverted figure calmly watched Mikoto Misaka on the screen.
Adjacent screens displayed Mikoto Misaka exhibiting various inexplicable expressions from not long ago until now — smiles, surprise, happiness, or shock — along with her occasionally talking to herself.
Not only that, there were also records of Mikoto Misaka's heart rate changes at the time, as well as her conversations with Kuroko Shirai, which touched upon the Absolute Esper Level 6 Shift project.
"Based on current data analysis, there is over a 90% probability that the third-ranked has received a gift from an unknown existence beyond our comprehension."
"What are your thoughts."
Though a question, Aleister's tone remained utterly calm.
"A great existence surpassing a Magic God has never been seen."
A voice slowly echoed from the void, and Aleister paid it no mind.
He simply looked at Mikoto Misaka on the screen, a trace of expectation in his eyes.
"An existence that neither you nor I can detect... Bai Xuan, Angel Yan, Whitebeard — unknown existences. It is difficult to comprehend in what manner the other party's gifts are given."
"And from where do these existences come."
