"You've been reading too many fantasy novels, haven't you?" Su Han stared at Su Zhu expressionlessly.
"Ha! What are you saying?" Su Zhu's expression was somewhat unfriendly.
"It's nothing... I mean, you might change your mind in a couple of days." After saying this, Su Han silently lowered his head and ate his food.
Su Zhu's curiosity was piqued, but no matter how she asked, Su Han wouldn't answer, which made her grind her teeth in frustration.
Back in his room that evening, Su Han entered the Cultivation Moon within the Misty Space and trained for a while. Afterwards, he entered the Misty Hall.
...
Within the ancient hall, mist rose, maintaining its usual mystery. But at this moment, the atmosphere within the misty hall was extremely solemn.
"Kill 20,000 Misaka Sisters to become a Level 6 Absolute Power User? Accelerator, is that your wish?" Tony Stark stared coldly at Accelerator.
Accelerator didn't reply; he just lowered his head, lost in thought.
Madara Uchiha remained silent, watching Tony Stark and Accelerator with great interest.
To be fair, he didn't think Accelerator did anything wrong. After all, Level 6 is said to be able to hear the voice of the heavens with a mortal body—what does that mean? It means that if Accelerator reached that level, he could very well be on par with a demon god.
Although Madara Uchiha still doesn't understand the power system of A Certain Magical Index, and doesn't comprehend why such extraordinary beings as Demon Gods could arise in that world, existence is its own justification. As long as he obtains that power... that's enough.
Possessing divine power, they could resurrect countless people they killed. This was hardly a price to pay.
Ultimately, Madara Uchiha was a believer in the ending.
“Mr. Accelerator,” Huang Rong stared at Accelerator with a complicated expression, opened her mouth but did not ask about killing the Misaka Sisters, “So, you actually like such young girls.”
This question finally elicited a response from Accelerator. He raised his head, stared coldly at Huang Rong, and said fiercely, "Woman, do you want to fight?"
"Private battles are not allowed in the Misty Space." Ying Zheng's voice was deep and slow. After a slight pause, he continued, "Of course, you can try to provoke the rules set by the Speaker of the Council... you self-proclaimed villains!"
"I wouldn't do something so stupid." Accelerator gave Ying Zheng a cold look.
“Mr. Stark,” Conan pushed up his glasses, his voice serious, “you don’t really need to blame Accelerator so much…even though he did some truly heinous things. At least his nature isn’t bad!”
"The most important thing now is to find out whether he killed Misaka Mikoto."
"...No." Accelerator answered decisively this time.
“That’s enough,” Conan said, spreading his palms. “Accelerator killed the Misaka Sisters because he craved invincible power. But ultimately, he just didn’t want to hurt others… He must have seen his own future and accepted the Misaka Sisters as human beings. In this case, there’s no need to worry about him carrying out that plan.”
“Or you could say the other way around,” Conan said, looking directly at Accelerator, “that he is now a trustworthy guy, someone you can risk your life to protect Misaka Mikoto.”
"Hmph! Just an idiot." Tony Stark clenched his fist suddenly.
“Stark,” Aizen said in a low voice, “the reason you hate Accelerator so much… is it because he reminds you of your past?”
Madara Uchiha's expression hardened. Yes, Tony Stark was once a playboy, and his company's arms manufacturing was the source of many disasters. He acknowledged the irreparable mistakes he had made… therefore, after learning everything, he shut down arms manufacturing and became Iron Man.
Although Tony Stark's past is very different from Accelerator's, the essential threads are still somewhat similar.
“Let’s talk about something lighter,” Aizen said with a smile, changing the subject. He turned to gaze at the Bronze Throne and said in a low voice, “Chairman… I’m very curious. Why is there no more story about the Demon God in Accelerator’s Starry Night arc?”
The scene fell silent. Many people turned their heads and, sure enough, saw the figure shrouded in mist atop the bronze throne.
“Because what he gives is only so much in value,” Su Han’s voice remained as calm as ever, “which conforms to the principle of equivalent exchange!”
Saeko Busujima paused, recalling the events that had just unfolded, and a look of understanding suddenly flashed in her eyes.
It's likely that the current starry sky in the plot was obtained through the exchange of vector manipulation, while the later computing power... was exchanged for the appearance of the demon god scene.
"In other words, if I could offer something more valuable, would I be able to glimpse what comes next?" Accelerator murmured. He suddenly thought of the black wings he had unleashed later in the game, and a shadow fell over his eyes.
"However, this is troublesome... that power seems to be related to Aleister."

Chapter 134 I always felt that this pot might be number ten.
In the mist, the star belonging to the Holy Grail War emitted a faint glow. All Might stepped out from it and sat in his seat, the smile on his face gone.
“What a dark world.” All Might’s voice was heavy. Then he looked at where Accelerator was, his expression turning serious. “And Accelerator, boy… your problem is also enormous.”
“We’ve already discussed this issue,” Conan said. Accelerator is an arrogant person who never admits his mistakes, and arguing with All Might would only escalate the conflict. “Misaka is not dead.”
"Accelerator should also abandon that plan... and even become part of the force protecting his sister."
"Who would save those stupid women?" Accelerator scoffed, but didn't say anything more.
All Might, as the No. 1 hero, is certainly not the kind of person who's only single-minded; he also saw through Accelerator's true intentions. Considering the future of Academy City and Accelerator's personality, we won't elaborate further.
He turned his head and gazed intently at the taciturn Weber. "Velvet, young man, I long to go to your world."
"I want to save the girl named Sakura, and also bring Caster's Master, Ryunosuke Amusei, to justice and save the children he killed."
All Might's eyes were filled with a deep gloom; to lay a hand on a child was something he absolutely could not forgive. It would have been better if he hadn't known; if he knew and could have turned a blind eye, then he wouldn't be a symbol of peace.
"As for the time," Waver hesitated for a moment, then said in a low voice, "it should still be quite early, right? I haven't learned anything about the Holy Grail War, nor have I prepared that special design and given it to my teacher."
"So, it's very likely that Sakura hasn't been sent into the insect pit yet?"
Tony Stark interrupted, his eyes flickering. He abruptly turned and stared at Su Han, "Chairman of the Council, if I were to pay you a certain price... would you allow All Might and me to travel to the Holy Grail World?"
"Whatever!" Su Han said calmly.
Then, with a thought, he controlled Number Ten to speak, "The world codenamed Type-Moon is very special! It contains Gaia, the will of Earth, and Alaya-vijnana, the unified collective unconscious of all primates. You may go to that world unscathed, or you may be hunted down by guardians or heroic spirits... Please be prepared."
"What?" Tony Stark's expression changed slightly, his fingers tracing the back of the bronze chair. All Might also frowned.
