Chapter 970: The Ace of Tokiwadai, Misaka Mikoto!
Chapter 970: The Ace of Tokiwadai, Misaka Mikoto!
"Sir, I'm White Tights Kuroko, a member of the Disciplinary Committee Branch 003 from Tokiwadai Middle School. May I ask for your name and affiliated school district?"
Without a doubt, although White Tights Kuroko was dressed in her school uniform and appeared much younger than Night City, her position as a Disciplinary Committee member granted her the authority to stop and inspect Night City's identification, much like checking an ID card.
Age was not a factor; in Academy City, everything revolved around superpowers. To become a member of the special Disciplinary Committee, one had to possess exceptional abilities; ordinary low-level espers simply didn't qualify.
The White Tights Kuroko before Night City was a Level 4 esper in Academy City, and her superpower was the exceptionally rare and powerful 'Teleportation.'
"Of course, I'm a teacher from XX High School in School District 7, and here is my identification."
White Tights Kuroko took Night City's ID and carefully examined it before confirming its authenticity. Based on the information, she verified that Night City had been living in Academy City for quite some time and was unlikely to be a suspicious individual.
"Mr. Night City, I apologize for the inconvenience. We received a report about a dangerous person in the vicinity.
If you have no pressing matters, please return home early. Wandering around this area might lead to unforeseen dangers."
After confirming that Night City was not a rioter, White Tights Kuroko politely returned his ID and addressed him as 'teacher.'
Although they weren't from the same school, Academy City was a city that encompassed numerous educational institutions. As a student, it was only polite to show respect to other teachers, especially since Tokiwadai Middle School was a prestigious girls' school.
The teachers in Academy City were mostly ordinary people, so they couldn't have caused the recent disturbance. Therefore, White Tights Kuroko advised Night City to head home early to avoid any potential dangers.
After bidding farewell to White Tights Kuroko, Night City heaved a deep sigh, "It's true that in anime, it's always the high school girls!
Damn, why didn't I try harder and apply for a position at Tokiwadai Middle School?
And that other girl with shoulder-length hair who didn't say a word, could she be the renowned Misaka Mikoto?"
Indeed, Night City had never watched A Certain Magical Index or A Certain Scientific Railgun, but as a seasoned anime enthusiast, he was familiar with the famous 'Queen of Moe,' Misaka Mikoto.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk. She's one of the only seven Level 5 espers in the entire Academy City. As for Kamijou Touma, he's a student here, so it's understandable.
But Kanzaki Kaori and Strenger Magnus, those magic users, do they really think they can escape unscathed this time?"
The seven Level 5 espers of Academy City were about to face off against the twenty Saints of the world. It was a clash of the highest levels of science and magic.
Night City, a mere bystander, abandoned his initial plan of returning home to cultivate and instead chose to conceal his presence and follow the two female students once more.
Strenger Magnus' 'Idle-Away' spell was merely a psychological suggestion.
The intense battles and destruction caused by Night City's previous encounters with Kanzaki Kaori and the Index System had significantly weakened the spell's effect, especially on higher-level espers.
When Misaka Mikoto and White Tights Kuroko arrived at the area where Kanzaki Kaori and her group were, they were shocked by the extensive battle scars and destruction.
"Tsk, more people coming? What a hassle. It's like we've stirred up a hornet's nest."
Staring at Misaka Mikoto and Shirai Kuroko, who had just arrived, Strenger Magnus tossed aside an unconscious Disciplinary Committee member, his expression filled with frustration.
Initially, after dealing with Index's situation, he and Kanzaki Kaori had planned to leave Academy City.
But just as they were about to depart, several individuals claiming to be Disciplinary Committee members appeared out of nowhere, stating that they had disrupted the order of Academy City and intended to arrest them.
Reasonably, the relationship between the magic and science factions was already strained, and their sudden appearance demanding arrest didn't sit well with Kanzaki and Strenger.
During the battle with the Disciplinary Committee students, Strenger regained his confidence.
Indeed, not everyone in Academy City was as twisted as Night City's aberrations; those freaks were exceptions.
Strenger Magnus, the 14-year-old magical genius and one of London's top-ranked magicians, was indeed a formidable fighter.
"Be careful, these two aren't ordinary opponents..."
A girl with flaxen hair tied into two pigtails spoke up upon seeing Shirai Kuroko, offering a warning before falling unconscious, her body covered in knife wounds.
The girl who had spoken, Mikoto and Kuroko, recognized as Makino Mami, a fellow student from Tokiwadai Middle School.
Like Kuroko, Mami was a member of the Disciplinary Committee's 003 Branch, but being from the Shokuhou faction, she didn't get along with Mikoto and her friends.
However, in the face of external threats, Mami seemed to have a good grasp of the situation.
