After an exchange that just surpassed everyone's basic common sense, everyone forgot that what they were facing was just a 12-year-old child.Even if the other party is really the leader of a large-scale magic association, it can't change the fact that the other party is only 12 years old.

At this moment, there was a sudden commotion in the originally quiet corridor. Listening to the chaotic footsteps, it seemed that the security personnel wanted to stop someone, but they were in a hurry.

"Yeah! Breaking through the siege, Misaka came to see the remodeled 'black cat'! By the way, I didn't notice this room when I just passed by."

The "special individual" wearing the standard suit of a bad girl has a black night seabird who looks like giving up and struggling under his arm.At this time, the girl in the punk-style rivet suit has become a black cat maid.

"Your eyes are dead! What did you do to her?"

"Misaka just had a good time. You see, Misaka doesn't even have her equipped cat ears, eh?"

"Wait, wait a minute! Celestial body, who is she..."

For the "extra individual" and the black night seabird who broke in like this.Although everyone was stunned, Accelerator and Emperor Kakine didn't make much movement.

After all, for these two superpowers who have clearly seen the "big world", it is different from seeing a group of ants moving on the side of the road.

"Oh, it's our first meeting. Misaka was originally a freshly baked product in the third production plan, and I don't know anyone on Earth. Anyway, without this guy, the desire to do activities will drop by about 90.00%."

"The third time?"

As if they heard something incredible, Misaka Mikoto and Shokuhou Misaki's eyes locked on the "special individual" at the same time.

"Purely to find fault with someone. It's already frozen. This is something my elder sister doesn't know."

The "special individual" seemed to remember something, and then turned around and said to Shokuhou Misaki, tilting his head.

"No. 4, right? Although there is no specific information about you on the Misaka network, Misaka knows 'that child' by accident. But if you want to use 'MentalOut' to spy on information, you can't Yes. Because Misaka is different from those individuals, she is a powerful person (Level [-])."

Looking at the "special individual", Shokuhou Caoqi didn't have much reaction.As for Misaka Mikoto, she turned to the Kihara celestial body, as if she wanted to know what the so-called "third time" was about.

"Simply put, there was an idiot who wanted her to kill Accelerator. Then it failed normally, and then he froze the whole plan because he was afraid of being found fault, and the so-called third planned production was the same individual. That's it."

"It's a ruthless statement, but Misaka was almost killed by that murderer."

The "special individual" moved the arm that was still in plaster in the direction of Misaka Mikoto, while Misaka Mikoto and Shokuhou Misaki's eyes instantly locked Accelerator.

Looking at the strange atmosphere created by the "fanwai individual" that was suddenly killed, Kihara Celestial Body pressed the fanwai individual down.

"Okay. It's time to start the next part of the explanation when the rest is almost complete. We don't have such a leisurely time here. Faced with a powerful association that does not know what its purpose is, I am afraid that the Anglican Church will also Are you busy?"

While Kihara Celestial Body was talking, Mark, who came back from Cinderella, handed the cup to Bardway.Looking at Budweiser's "ha~" expression, Mark also laughed helplessly and complained.

"Obviously it's a mocktail, why can..."

Mark, who was hit by Bardway again on his calf with his little foot, closed his mouth wisely and looked at Mark who instantly put away his smile.It's inexplicably pitiful, but I can't help the urge to laugh.

"By the way, I heard Kanzaki say that the 'Radiosonde Fortress' was launched over Iceland? Apart from the three major churches, the Anglican Church, the Roman Orthodox Church and the Russian Orthodox Church, there seem to be individual magical associations. Involved in the investigation? In which direction..."

Bardwig took a sip of "Cinderella", and she knew exactly what Kihara Celestial Body wanted to confirm.

"That's right. Our 'Crimson Sunshine (Dawn Morning Light)' was also involved. But we didn't have any valuable information. The only thing that can be confirmed is that the 'fortress' incorporates elements of science."

Bardway paused as she spoke, then looked at Kihara Celestial Bodies.

"Although we haven't collected any definite information, you should be able to judge something if you have faced each other directly, right? If you can see through the 'Right Seat of God' spell in an instant, even if you are not a professional magician, I'm afraid you also used your own way to collect some information that we are missing?"

Kihara Tenji shrugged and changed his body, which was a little stiff from sitting for a long time.

"The 'Radiosonde Fort' is a drone, there is no so-called 'crew'. Above we were attacked by two magicians. They called themselves 'Gremlin'."

"Gremlin? What is that?"

It was Kamijou Touma who asked the question.

"Gremlins are mischievous spirits. They live in the mountains and often fly back and forth in the sky. They like to sneak into the inside of the machine and cause mischief."

"It is said that during the First World War, fighter jets often had problems for unknown reasons, called the 'Gremlin effect', and it is said that this is what the Gremlins did. In many film and television works, Gremlin has appeared, although The image is not exactly the same, but the fact that he likes to play pranks has not changed. Moreover, it is said that Franklin, a famous political activist and scientist in the United States, obtained electricity stored in a bottle through lightning, which was also helped by Gremlin. "

It was Index who answered, and it was Mark who made further additions.

"Wait a minute, you mean scientific experiments too..."

Misaka Mikoto seemed a little surprised by such an unreasonable thing.

"That's it kid. Do you think all 'errors' can be explained by science?"

"Indeed, many famous scientists began to develop in the direction of 'theology' in their later years, precisely because they stood at the forefront of contemporary science. At the same time, they also really realized that some 'errors' cannot be used in science explained."

"The same is true for Academy City. Could it be that the 'Angel' and 'Black Wing' of September No. 30 can be explained by the current theory?"

Misaka Mikoto was speechless by the three Kihara's words.Accelerator obviously leaked a different look when he said "Black Wing".At that time, the number of Kihara didn't have any reaction to Kihara Conductor's seemingly intentional practice of "lifting the pot without opening it".

"But if it's self-proclaimed 'Gremlin' then isn't there any information?"

"No, it can be confirmed that at least most of the opponents are magicians from the Nordic direction."

"Oh? What's the reason?"

Bardway seemed to finally have a topic that could interest her.Putting down the Cinderella in his hands, he listened intently to what Kihara Celestial said next.

"First of all, on the 'Radiosonde Fort', the two magicians I met with Emperor Kakine called themselves 'Mornier' and 'Logi'."

Hearing this, Kihara Kuta suddenly answered.

"Is one the weapon of Thor and the other the god of mischief?"

The Kihara celestial body looked at him the same, just as the Kihara molecules said before.Kihara, who is the "frontier" of Academy City, has also begun to pay attention to the information on the "other side".

"No, 'Loki', the god of mischief, and 'Loki' should be..."

"The embodiment of wildfire in Jotunheim, the kingdom of giants."

The Kihara Celestial body connected to Bardwig's words.

"And the other side also mentioned the names 'Belsey' and 'Tor'."

"I see, so you said that most of the members are magicians of the Nordic system, right?"

"Actually, I played against a guy who calls himself 'Tor' on the 'Star of Bethlehem'. But I haven't seen him since I beat him back, and it should be absorbed after that. 'Gremlin'."

"What about the magic name?"

"I'm afraid this thing means nothing to them."

Bardwig nodded, which was to be expected.After all, to do this kind of "scientific mixed magic", the nature of the organization has long been not a pure "magic association".

It's not surprising that things like "abandoning the magic name" are based on it again.

After thinking for a while, Bardwig resumed the lecture.

"Then skip those guys. Continuing the topic just now, the question about the magician's individual has already been said. Then, let's explain the magician's group."

"That, is it an existence similar to Academy City?"

Facing Shokuhou who asked the question, Bardwig shook her head.

"Leaving aside the Roman Orthodox Church, general magical associations are different from your scientific side's approach of 'providing special abilities and managing through huge organizations'. 'Gathering people who already have abilities to create a huge organization' is more accurate. ."

After Bardway explained just right, Index continued to explain.

"Because it is closely related to mythology and supernatural, it is widely understood as a religious organization. In other words, it is regarded as a division of a religious organization, a secretly formed magical organization."

"I'm not very clear about this either..."

Kamijou said, just like what he said before, Kamijou Touma's magical knowledge is actually similar to no.

"For example, what is the difference between the Roman Orthodox Church of the Crusaders and a magical association like yours?"

"If there is no difference, I'm afraid there will be a bunch of angry guys."

Bardwig paused.

"Institutionally speaking, it's the difference between all individuals agreeing to prioritize the interests of the high-level organization, and people who are self-centered from the very beginning. But..."

"but?"

"The biggest difference is 'whether this is acceptable to the majority of people'. Originally, large religions suppressed sects other than themselves as 'devil heretics'."

"is that so......"

"Most people don't have a correct understanding of the existence of magic. But at least they know the underlying myths and the ethics contained in the supernatural. It's like learning some kind of lesson from fairy tales. Existence, if it is deeply rooted in the hearts of the natives, is treated as a 'sacred one,' and if it is not accepted, it is dealt with as a 'foreign object that must be removed'."

Bardwig did not deal with the history of being suppressed.

"Trials of heresy, witch hunts, inquisitions. There are many familiar examples."

Kihara celestial body hit the straight ball directly into everyone's brains with the necessary information.

"For the Cross religion, which has been suppressed since its birth, but expanded, it later became the role of suppressing others."

Half sigh, half sarcastic, Mark said as if talking to himself.

"For example, for the modern Western Magic Association, it is like a hidden skill of a cross. However, when the members of this association exceed half of the earth's population, it will become the largest religion. Regardless of whether this is true or not. ...Although reality is deadly cruel, it is nothing more than a theoretical topic in the end. The distinction between official existence and hidden existence is only so much."

Of course, the "majority of today" would never agree with the possibility of such a reversal.Bardwig added.

"As I said earlier, most of those groups were formed by people who were originally capable. Therefore, individual ideas are given priority over the whole group."

"'Those guys' are also some plural organizations?"

Accelerator said impatiently.

"If the rules of the organization hinder the actions of individuals, why do they gather together?"

"The next thing is to imagine an actual magical association going on the topic."

Bardway sneered,

"If you talk about the negative reason, it is that the people around you have formed a group, so there are many cases where you also follow the gourd. When it comes to a simple battle, the fighting power of the group is naturally higher than that of an individual. There are other uses. The division of responsibilities, the implementation of large-scale ceremonies, and the gathering of intelligence from a wide range of fields have brought together a group of highly individualistic magicians."

"That is to say, if no matter how big the purpose is, as long as there is no need to divide the labor and it is more efficient to do it alone, won't the magician join the organization?"

Kamijou whispered.

For the average person who thinks about school first, and the company first, it's a world that doesn't really feel real.

Wouldn't "belonging nowhere" also create unease?

On the other hand, Emperor Kakine said.

"So, it can be understood that the group that calls itself 'Gremlin' is to achieve a goal that cannot be achieved without division of responsibilities?"

"more or less."

Bardway nodded.

"Originally, these rebels were hidden. Once they were known, they would be surrounded by the majority. In other words, the smaller the organization, the better. The fewer people involved, the less likely it would be leaked. Bar."
