Kamijou Touma looked up and saw Hikigaya Hachiman flying slowly.

"I saw them. It looks like Kamijou Touma's victory." Hikigaya Hachiman breathed a sigh of relief and fell from the sky.

Looking at the blood all over Hikigaya Hachiman's body, Kamijou Touma choked up a little.

"I'm sorry, Hikigaya, it's me who got you involved in this."

"You're welcome, we just help each other," Hikigaya Hachiman said softly.

"I will ask you to help me with something in the future."

Kamijou Touma nodded hurriedly: "If you need me to do anything, just tell me and I will definitely help."

Hikigaya Hachiman smiled, what he was waiting for was Kamijou Touma's words.

"Rear Water has said something. The Roman Church will not give up. The Roman Church may send people to come in the near future, so be careful."

Kamijou Touma said solemnly: "I already know about this matter."

"One more thing" Hikigaya Hachiman changed the subject.

"what happened?"

"Look at my injuries. To tell you the truth, I'm not very rich," Hikigaya Hachiman said directly.

Kamijou Touma's face darkened. Good guy, he understood. He smiled bitterly: "Okay, I understand. Don't worry, I will pay for your medical expenses."

Ah, my wallet, my wallet, Kamijou Touma felt pain in his heart.

Hikigaya Hachiman smiled, he liked such straightforward people.

···········

Three days later, the hospital.

Hikigaya Hachiman was still lying on the hospital bed, next to him was Last Order and Yuigahama Yui. The two were bickering, and soon there was a knock on the door.

"Hikigaya, can you come in?"

"Come in." This was Kamijou Touma's voice. This was his first visit since Hikigaya Hachiman was admitted to the hospital.

Kamijou Touma stepped into the hospital, followed by Index.

Index smiled and said hello to Hikigaya Hachiman, and then went to play with Last Order and Yuigahama Yui.

"How is your recovery from your injury?" Kamijou Touma asked.

"I've almost recovered, and I can be discharged from the hospital tomorrow," Hikigaya Hachiman said.

"That's good, I feel uneasy all the time"

"Has the Roman Church sent anyone here these days?"

Kamijou Touma shook his head and said: "No, it seems that it is because the three people on the right seat of God were defeated here, so they did not dare to take action in a short period of time."

"That's good, actually I have something to ask." After a long time, Hikigaya Hachiman said.

"what happened?"

"That's who Index is, and why do people from the Roman Church want to arrest her?"

It took Hachiman a long time to think about this matter, but he decided to ask it himself.

Kamijou Touma's face froze at first, and after a long time, he spoke loudly.

Chapter 12 Aleister’s ultimate plan to kill the Demon God

After Kamijou Touma's explanation, Hikigaya Hachiman finally understood Index's origin.

He grew up in St. George's Cathedral in the United Kingdom. It belongs to the Grimoire Library of the Church of Necessary Evil, the Zeroth Parish of the Puritan Church in England. The official name is "Index-Librorum-Prohibitorum" (Index of Forbidden Books). Because it has He has perfect memory ability, so he is given a heavy mission. The contents of one hundred and three thousand magic books are stored in his memory. The church deletes the memory once a year on the grounds of ensuring brain capacity.

"This is all I know about Index. I don't know much about the details."

Hikigaya Hachiman nodded. Kamijou Touma said that he lost his memory when he was helping Index. However, his understanding of Index now is thanks to Stiyl Magnus, otherwise when he wakes up Shi Ye's eyes were darkened and he didn't know anything.

"So you are fighting to prevent the English Puritans from getting Index?"

Kamijou Touma shook his head and said: "This is just one aspect. Although the British Puritan Church often deletes her memory, it is still the place where she was born and raised. Although I can't stand it, they treat Index as an object. On the other hand, the importance of Index is that almost everyone on the magic side wants her."

Hikigaya Hachiman understood, and after a moment he said, "I have something I want to ask Index, is it okay?"

Kamijou Touma nodded and called Index over with a wave of his hand.

"What's wrong? Hachiman?" Index asked confused.

"Why is it that the person with superpowers can't learn magic?"

Hikigaya Hachiman was still a little unwilling to give up. He had asked Yukinoshita Yukino at first, but Yukinoshita Yukino couldn't tell a reason, but he thought Index should know about the Index of Magic that Index was famous for. There are more.

"Well," Index fell into deep thought, Yuigahama Yui brought her a stool for her to sit on.

"It's not very complicated, but I'll start with the most basic things." Index took the water from Last Work and took a sip.

"That is, the existence of magic and magicians begins to be explained."

Kamijou Touma was also listening attentively. Although he was surrounded by the Index of Magical Index, he rarely asked about these things. Since he had the opportunity today, he naturally had to listen carefully.

Hikigaya Hachiman nodded. He could say it anywhere. After all, he just wanted to get to know the magician better, instead of turning his eyes black. Thinking of this, he was a little speechless. Why is Yukinoshita Yukino a demon? Basic knowledge So weak.

"I'm so sorry." Sensing Hikigaya Hachiman complaining, Yukinoshita Yukino let out a dissatisfied voice.

"Speaking of magic, just as you imagine, it is an existence that has nothing to do with scientific laws. In a word, it is supernatural. People who have gained magical abilities can emit flames from their hands, and can also spray water. It can also heal wounds, but it’s not impossible to make them worse at the same time.”

"Well, I have a problem, Index-sensei." Yuigahama Yui raised her right hand.

"what happened?"

"If it is really such a convenient thing, it seems that it should be more popular than scientific superpowers, right? But why is magic still classified as a mysterious side? Many people don't even know it."

"Magic is not that convenient. After all, magic, excluding some exceptions, basically exists for the purpose of 'people without talent catching up with those with talent'.

To put it simply, it is the concept of incompetence.For the parts that are useless, make up for them through other ways.”

"Ah, is this really the case?" Yuigahama Yui's eyes widened, seemingly in disbelief.

Index said: "Speaking of which, let's talk about superpowers. The so-called 'scientific abilities' you use, basically each person only has one kind, right?"

"Not bad!" Hikigaya Hachiman said softly, at least he had never heard of anyone having two abilities.

Index said: "For magicians, superpowers are actually very inconvenient. If in battle, magicians can use their own magic to quickly switch fighting methods, but for those with superpowers, it is A little embarrassed

As far as I know, people with superpowers, for example, the fire system, can use their abilities to create smoke and steal oxygen, but magicians can freely generate flames, and even water can be used. You can use two abilities at will. A kind of ability, it is obvious that magicians have the advantage."

Several people showed expressions of sudden realization. To be honest, even Kamijou Touma had spent a lot of time on the magic side and had not seen the battle between superpowers and magicians with his own eyes. It was inevitable that he had some doubts in his heart. But after Indy Ke Si’s explanation suddenly made the confusion in her heart clear.

"Of course there are basic rules. Celtic or Nordic or something like that. But even so, there is no particularly strict distinction. It's similar to the situation of 'Norse mythology influenced by Celtic culture', They can all be combined freely.”

Hikigaya Hachiman was a little frightened. He felt the gap between the magic side and the science side. It was true that the science side was also very strong, but at this time he felt that the magic side had a deeper foundation.

These ability users, after passing a physical examination, are systematically classified into levels, and nothing can be changed after that. In this comparison, magic is indeed amazing.

"But you can't use magic!" Hikigaya Hachiman and Yukinoshita Yukino had heard about the inability of espers to use magic, but neither of them knew the specific reason.

"Why?" Yuigahama Yui exclaimed. She originally wanted to ask Index to teach her magic.

Index explained softly

"Magic is a technology created to allow people without talent to catch up with talented people. This is a structural problem. It was not originally created for talented people."

"Even the incompetent people have been transformed through brain surgery after entering Academy City. In fact, they are essentially no different from the concept of capable people. In other words, incompetent people are actually qualified people, let alone Those with great abilities, or those with super powers.”

Hikigaya Hachiman continued: "That is to say, there is a conflict between magic and ability."

"Indeed, if a person with abilities wants magic, he will have to pay a huge price. For example, if it were you, Hachiman, you would need at least five years to practice magic, and then you would bleed out after using it once. Do you still want the consequences of this? Do you want to practice magic?"

Hikigaya Hachiman smacked his lips, the price was much heavier than he thought.

Index said so much, in short, it was just one sentence. The use of magic by ability users will have great consequences. In fact, Hachiman Hachiman has a deeper understanding of this. At that time, in order to remove the virus from the brain for the final work, he did not know whether to live or die. I sang the inexplicable song on the parchment, and now I think it's great to be alive.

"Thank you, Index," Hikigaya Hachiman said sincerely. Index's introduction made him understand the opposition between espers and magic, and also gave him a clear basic concept of magic, which will be of great help to him in the future. Fighting has great benefits.

Index's eyes widened: "Is this okay?"

Index was a little dissatisfied. This was her temperament. She was very excited when talking about the things she was good at. Kamijou Touma didn't even talk to her at home, which made her feel a little lonely. Now that she had the opportunity to say it, she didn't expect it. It ends as soon as it begins.

Suddenly I felt a little disappointed.

"That's enough!" Hikigaya Hachiman said softly.

"Of course, if you have any recommended magic history books, I can take a look."

Index's eyes lit up: "You can have this. Although you can't learn magic, it's not a bad thing to understand it. Touma, I'll leave this to you!"

Kamijou Touma nodded and asked Stiyl Magnus to bring some from the outside next time.

"Then thank you!"

After a few people chatted for a while, Kamijou Touma and Index said goodbye. Yuigahama Yui and Last Order also went home to pack their things and prepare to welcome Hikigaya Hachiman from the hospital.

Hikigaya Hachiman was lying on the bed, thinking a lot. The more he understood, the more he felt that magic was unfathomable. He also felt a lot of pressure on Aleister. He sighed, how should he defeat Aleister.

"What? I feel afraid of the power of magic."

Yukinoshita Yukino's voice suddenly came.

Hikigaya Hachiman chuckled: "Fear? It doesn't exist at all!"

Yukinoshita Yukino curled her lips, not believing it at all.

"Speaking of which, what kind of demon is this?"

Yukinoshita Yukino floated and tilted her head: "This... you ask me? I don't know very well. Although there are many kinds of demons, I have never studied them. Besides, didn't I tell you that I am a man-made demon? I was thrown into Academy City right after I was born.”

This is also the reason why Yukinoshita Yukino knows very little about magic.

"Okay!" Hikigaya Hachiman waved his hand, making Yukinoshita Yukino disappear.

"You really know how to burn bridges when crossing rivers. You weren't like that back then." Yukinoshita said, coughing twice and pretending.

"Hey, Yukinoshita, please lend me your power! How handsome you were back then!"

Hikigaya Hachiman's face turned red and he glared at him angrily. Yukinoshita stuck out his tongue and disappeared with a smile.

The next day, Hikigaya Hachiman returned to the apartment. Of course, no one prepared any welcome ceremony this time. After all, it was too common for Hikigaya Hachiman to enter the hospital.

The hospital will soon become his second home. If he prepares a welcome ceremony every time he is discharged from the hospital, he doesn’t know how much he will have to prepare in the future.

"Hey! Long time no see!" As soon as he entered the room, Hikigaya Hachiman saw someone he really didn't want to see.

"Aleister!" Hikigaya Hachiman's face was extremely ugly. He was not ready to fight Aleister yet.

"Don't be nervous! By the way, call out your little devil!"

Hikigaya Hachiman frowned, but instead of calling Yukinoshita Yukino, he said, "What are you doing here?"

Aleister shook his head slightly, his long white hair swaying.

"Don't be nervous, I don't mean any harm," Aleister said with a smile.

"Of course, the same applies to the devil in you. After all, if you go all out now, you can still fight me a few times. I don't want to get hurt at this juncture."

"Really, that's really great!" Even so, Hikigaya Hachiman didn't believe it at all. How could he accept the killing?

"Tell me why you're here!"

"Well, how should I put it, I feel that the final battle is coming, and I may die by then, so I want to say hello to you in advance."

"Say hello to me? What does it have to do with me whether you die or not?" Hikigaya Hachiman sneered.

Aleister chuckled: "If I die, you will succeed as the chairman of the academy, and then all kinds of pressure from the magic side will be put on you."

Hikigaya Hachiman looked confused: "What on earth do you mean?"

"It's not interesting. I just want to say that we can coexist peacefully."

"Okay, as long as you don't plan on finishing the final work, I won't care about your grudges with the magic side. If you want to destroy the magic side, then go ahead," Hikigaya Hachiman said calmly.

Aleister shook his head and smiled bitterly: "How can you treat me as such a perfunctory creature? Indeed, I once told you to destroy the entire magic side, but that is not my fundamental purpose."

"So?" Regarding Aleister's words, Hikigaya Hachiman didn't believe it at all.

"A Index of Magical Books should have told you the basic information about magic. Now I ask you, do you know about the Demon God?"
