Chapter 303: Just Go With It

Takumi brought everyone to the rooftop of an abandoned building.

This was the experimental site for tonight.

Takumi had, of course, heard the conversation between Kuroko and the others. Arriving at the destination with time to spare, he began chatting with Kuroko.

He shared some of his understanding of space with her. Although Kuroko's ability was simply teleportation, that was just on the surface.

This girl could move steel needles into people's bodies—if her ability were developed further, perhaps it could evolve into full spatial control.

Takumi had a good impression of this tsundere girl, so he didn't mind offering some guidance.

And Takumi's version of "guidance" was to directly cram spatial knowledge into Kuroko's brain.

Kuroko stood there, dazed, overwhelmed by the sudden influx of spatial theory.

She couldn't react for a moment.

"Study well, understand it thoroughly. Who knows? Maybe you'll become a Level 5 someday."

"I believe in you, Kuroko."

He patted her shoulder encouragingly.

Kuroko gave a strained smile.

"Easier said than done. It's not like I can just level up by wishing for it."

Reaching Level 5? That felt like a pipe dream.

So she didn't take his words too seriously. Maybe one day, but certainly not soon.

While they were chatting, a figure appeared below.

She looked exactly like Misaka Mikoto, except her face was emotionless and she wore tactical goggles.

This was one of the Misaka Sisters.

Seeing her arrival, Takumi immediately said,

"She's here. Let's wrap this up."

It was Kuroko's first time seeing a Misaka Sister.

She could hardly believe it.

Was this really her beloved Onee-sama's clone?

Back in the dorm, Mikoto had explained things to Kuroko, which was why she came along.

Yup, teleportation really comes in handy.

They didn't want the Level 6 dorm manager catching them. That would mean another punishment.

After saying his piece, Takumi teleported down.

His sudden appearance startled the Misaka Sister.

"An unplanned individual has appeared, do~."

"Unidentified male, please vacate the area, do."

Although she was startled, she still tried to carry out her programmed duty and expel Takumi.

At that moment, Mikoto and Ruiko were teleported down by Kuroko.

When the Sister saw Mikoto, her mood immediately shifted to joy.

"Misaka #10006 greets Onee-sama, do!"

"Onee-sama!!"

She hadn't expected to meet her beloved Onee-sama. This was too delightful.

Mikoto looked at her clone with a complicated expression.

"From today onward, you no longer need to participate in this experiment. You'll come with me instead."

At that moment, Takumi spoke—through the Misaka Network.

When his message hit the network, all the Sisters were stunned.

"This is bad, this is bad! The Misaka Network's been breached!"

"?(ò_óˇ)?"

"It's the voice of Big Brother, do!!"

"Big Brother? Where's Big Brother?!"

"Let me see, I want Big Brother too!"

"Misaka #10557, shut up! No stealing Big Brother!!"

Takumi's message caused complete chaos within the Misaka Network.

At the same time, the institutions involved in the Level 6 Shift experiment were thrown into disarray.

Takumi didn't waste words.

As soon as he finished speaking, he snapped his fingers.

In that instant, he took control of the entire spatial framework of Academy City.

Those with spatial abilities felt it most intensely.

They sensed that the entire world's space had changed.

Even if they wanted to use their abilities, they couldn't.

Someone had taken complete control of all spatial permissions.

Even Aleister wasn't exempt.

He felt it the moment Takumi made his move.

"Such terrifying power."

"Absolute spatial dominion!"

Aiwass appeared from the void.

Sensing the spatial shift, even he had to sigh in admiration.

"But he's not an enemy."

"Really?"

Aleister didn't care. For the first time, he felt completely at ease.

Takumi wasn't his enemy, so what was there to worry about?

He could just relax.

Once Takumi left this world, he probably wouldn't let those Magic Gods off the hook, right?

Aleister just needed to watch.

He didn't need to do anything.

Whatever Takumi wanted, Aleister would give it to him.

As long as the Magic Gods were finished, everything would be fine.

Even if Takumi wanted to take the entire Academy City with him, Aleister wouldn't object.

"Heh, exactly."

Aiwass nodded in agreement.

Now that he knew this world's future, he had lost all interest in it.

If possible, he'd like to explore other worlds.

Maybe he'd ask Takumi later if there was a way.

Decision made.

As for Aleister?

Forget about him.

Maybe once the Magic Gods were gone, Aleister would just off himself.

That guy was capable of anything.

Crossdressing, even. And he actually enjoyed it—can you believe that?

He threw away his dignity long ago. The possibilities with him were endless.

He could become anything.

...

Takumi released his authority and enveloped all the research institutes he had locked onto.

The next moment, imaginary numbers descended.

Massive spatial rifts swallowed all those institutes.

With a casual wave, Takumi finished it.

Then he turned to Mikoto and said,

"You all can go in now."

"I've already secured all the Sisters."

"I'll send them to my world later."

"If there's anything you want to say, go in and say it now."

"Their physical conditions aren't great. The sooner they get treatment, the better."

With that, Takumi opened a spatial passageway for them.

Mikoto was stunned.

She stared blankly at Takumi.

Was he serious?

Wasn't this a joke?

Did he really bring all the Sisters together?

Ruiko quickly spoke up.

"Let's go in. Takumi-nii is that powerful. Believe in him."

Even if no one else believed him, she did.

She knew best just how strong Takumi was.

If he said he'd done it, then he really had.

They had to go in and see the Sisters now.

Once Takumi sent them away, they might never get the chance again.

The Sisters' bodies needed proper care.

Sending them to Takumi's world and letting Mobius help was the best choice.
