Chapter 311: Want to Know About Dolly?
Takumi and Bronya sat in the restaurant chatting with Shokuhou Misaki. Because the place had been reserved, no one else could enter, which made their conversation quite enjoyable. The only downside was that Shokuhou Misaki's hostility toward Misaka Mikoto kept intensifying.
"Can you tell me about the other world? I'm really curious. Why did you come to this world?" Shokuhou Misaki asked, clearly confused. Did something here draw Takumi over?
"Actually, it's nothing much," Takumi shrugged. "Just came to take care of some business. It's mostly handled now. After seeing you, I plan to leave."
Only the magic gods remained. Shokuhou Misaki was a little flattered upon hearing this. He had crossed worlds just to see her?
"That's really touching! Too bad though, if you leave, we might never see each other again. I'd love to visit your world if I had the chance," she said with a bit of regret. Once Takumi left, she might never see him again. Still, the fact that other worlds truly existed was exhilarating.
"No," Takumi said. "We'll definitely meet again. And if you want to come to my world, you can do so anytime. Alright then, it's time I leave. By the way, Dolly will be revived in my world. I'm looking forward to seeing you there. If you want to come, ask your rival."
As soon as he finished, Takumi and Bronya vanished, not giving Shokuhou Misaki any time to react. After they disappeared, everyone in the restaurant returned to normal.
Shokuhou Misaki stood frozen in place.
"Dolly..."
That long-forgotten name unsettled her. Realizing Takumi had already left, she began to panic.
Dolly was going to be revived? But in another world?
Was he joking?
Remembering Takumi's final words, she hurriedly stood up.
"Queen!" her subordinates immediately approached.
"Back to school!" she commanded, determined to find that guy.
"Junko, help me look into something!" she ordered as she walked out, trying to remain calm.
She needed to investigate what had been going on in Academy City lately—and Dolly...
...
Meanwhile, Takumi had already left Academy City with Bronya.
"You just had to flirt with her at the end, didn't you? Seriously! And stirring up drama between her and Misaka Mikoto—don't you think that's a bit much? Won't they end up fighting?"
Bronya remembered their conversation in the restaurant. She didn't even know how to complain anymore. Takumi clearly enjoyed stoking the fire between Shokuhou and Misaka.
Wasn't he the true Star God of Pleasure?
"They won't. Besides, she can't win," Takumi replied nonchalantly. "Let's go~ I'll send you back first. Then I'll deal with the magic gods."
He pulled out a spatial ring. Bronya nodded without arguing. There wasn't much more she could do in the upcoming events anyway, so heading back made sense.
Takumi stored Bronya in the spatial ring and sent her to Shiba Mio.
As soon as he sent a red packet in the group chat, the others popped up.
Fujiwara Chika: [Are you coming back now?]
Saten Ruiko: [Takumi-nii, are you back already?]
Lala: [Eh? You're free now? I'll send the portal! I'm coming to your world!]
Seeing the messages, Takumi replied:
Takumi: [@Lala, don't rush. I haven't returned yet. I'm going to deal with the magic gods now. It might take some time. Going dark~!]
After telling Lala, he closed the chat. It seemed she really wanted to leave her world and head to his. Probably someone in the group had already told her about his world.
He shook his head, deciding not to overthink it.
Takumi disappeared from where he stood.
When he reappeared, he was already beyond the world—in the realm of phases.
In this worldview, the world is layered with countless religious phases. These phases act like membranes, stacked one over another.
The power of magic gods is based on creation and destruction. With it, they can freely shape and shatter worlds. But this only works within this particular world.
Rules like "life must die," "apples fall down," and "1+1=2"—the unchangeable laws of reality—can be rewritten at will by magic gods.
Such beings are the ultimate form of magicians. Essentially, they've gained admin rights over this world.
But move them to another world, and they're just powerful magicians at best.
The moment Takumi appeared, the magic gods sensed him.
Surprised that someone had entered their realm, they immediately took action.
This person wasn't of their world!
They had to capture him.
A visitor from outside the world was just too valuable.
Seeing them take action, Takumi sighed helplessly.
These guys were too used to sitting on high horses.
With a thought, Takumi activated his powers.
His outfit transformed as he entered Herrscher mode.
His pupils turned into cross-shaped stars.
The next moment, Endbringer descended.
The entire phase layer was erased in an instant.
Simultaneously, the spatial fabric of the world was sliced apart by Takumi.
The world and the realm of the magic gods were completely severed.
He even forcibly dragged certain individuals out of the world.
In Academy City, Aiwass and Aleister immediately noticed the shift.
"The phase is gone!" Aleister said in disbelief.
In an instant, Takumi had erased the entire world's phase?
"What incredible power," Aiwass murmured. "I think I'm disappearing too."
Sensing his own state, he couldn't believe it.
In a single instant, Takumi had rewritten the laws of this world.
Fighting was one thing—but this? Why mess with the rules of the world itself?
