Longevity Story

lost life.

From the moment this thought appeared in the girl's mind, the death of countless girls with tea hair with exactly the same face has been lingering in memory.

The train that fell from the sky...

Twisted limbs...

Eyes that have lost their light...

Even if she can't remember who she is, even if she doesn't understand who the dead girls are, the girl's belief at this moment will not be shaken.

[So, destroy it. 】

Everything started from that place.

"Hmm. That's what I said."

Destroy it.

As long as it is destroyed, the experiment can end, and those children will no longer suffer from the evil hands.

Just destroy there...

【Your sins will not go away either. 】

"……Who?"

A new voice appeared, not the same as the voice just now.

[Even if Academy City is destroyed, the mistakes you made and the facts you regret will not disappear. 】

[Instead, everything you cherish now will lose its place. 】

"Then what do you want from me? If you don't, they won't stop the experiment!

How many people suffer misfortune every day where I can't see it! "

[So, don't run away, face it head-on! 】

【You are Misaka Mikoto, the Misaka Mikoto who never admit defeat, don't be lazy here. 】

Misaka Mikoto——As soon as the name was conveyed to the girl, the girl's hazy consciousness became clear.

The memory starts to wake up...

.........

……

[Wait, what's going on?How's the memory... who are you? 】

[Policy watch to take, don't fool around in the sea of ​​my consciousness.I'll settle the account with you in a while. 】

【Ugh?wait! ~——]

Momentary silence.

[Very good, the connection is successful, let me see where the divergence points appear in this world. 】

It is only natural that the world will branch only if the river of destiny has a divergence point.This world will of course have its own historical trajectory that is different from other worlds.

[It turns out that the "I" of this world did not control the output of the railgun properly, which led to the direct brain death of Kihara Terestina. 】

[Well... as expected of me, doing it beautifully. 】

"Who are you? Don't keep talking to yourself in other people's minds."

Girl, no, it should be said that Misaka Mikoto, who had regained her memory, remembered everything.

I remembered that on the way to save Misaka's sister with Shokuhou Kaori, it seemed that a man named Kihara Gensei, who was also Kihara Terestina's grandfather, had been tricked.

Then he was controlled, attacked the windowless building with all his strength, and finally was awakened by this voice in his mind...

【who I am?I am you, you in another world.

Hello, the "me" of this world. 】

928. Come, everyone sing with me, unity ~ knot · strength ~ strength...

Me in another world? "

Misaka Mikoto's heart was full of doubts, and she retorted without hesitation:

"Impossible, I can't say [well done] to someone who died because of my own fault!

Even if the opponent is an enemy, it is absolutely impossible. "

[Haha... that's what I said.Misaka Mikoto really shouldn't have said that. 】

The voice on the opposite side was also a little hesitant, and seemed to agree with it.

Then, in front of Misaka Mikoto, in the dark, empty space, there was a girl who looked almost exactly like her, but with a slightly longer hairstyle and very strange hair accessories.

As she said, it's really a feeling of "self in another world".

[Although I have thousands of reasons to explain the difference between me and you, none of these matters. 】

[Even if you don't trust me now, it doesn't matter, the fact that I am you will not change. 】

"...Stop joking, it doesn't matter who you are."

Now even Misaka Mikoto is not so sure in her heart.

"Let me out now, and I'll talk about other things later."

【go out?What are you going to do? 】

"Of course I'm going out..."

【Slap Kihara Gensei?Don't be silly, no matter how rotten that person is, he is still a 60-year-old man. 】

"..."

Misaka Mikoto gritted her teeth and fell silent.

Before falling into a coma, Misaka had already seen Kihara Gensei.Although according to the rumors, the old man is very bad.But from the outside, it is indeed an old man who is dying - can he really do it?

[So, don't be in such a hurry.Outside you, you have temporarily lost your active aggression.We can take this opportunity to have a good talk. 】

The long-haired Misaka looks very leisurely, and is much calmer than the short-haired Misaka:

【Do you know why you were controlled by Kihara Gensei with such a simple strategy this time? 】

"why……"

Misaka Mikoto recalled her experience on that day.

From the time she met Miss Misaka until she just got the identity of the man behind the incident from Shokuhou Misaka, Misaka Mikoto never realized that she and her sister were actually calculated by a huge conspiracy.

Instead, at first, I just thought that it was all a prank by Shokuhou.

It's kind of ridiculous.

From the very beginning, the enemy was prepared to be bad for her, bad for Sister Misaka, and use her to complete some ulterior conspiracies.

The opposite party started making plans a long time ago, but she herself didn't know anything and stepped into the trap without any preparation.

"...Kihara Gensei, the target from the very beginning was me."

[Yes, that's it.You are not conscious at all. 】

[Neither did he realize what kind of place Academy City was, nor did he realize his worth in the eyes of some scheming guys. 】

The long-haired Misaka smiled gently and said slowly:

[What’s more without yourself is that you don’t know your own weakness. 】

[Even after experiencing the incident of being unable to fight back in front of Accelerator, you still look so carefree. 】

[Enjoy the leisurely daily life every day, thinking that I can use my own strength to protect the people I care about at any time in this "peaceful" Academy City...]

"not me……"

Misaka Mikoto wanted to refute, but it actually weakened in an instant.

Because what the other side said was an irrefutable fact.

"Don't say it, I know it.

I know I'm a coward, and I've noticed it, but I've been avoiding the facts and don't dare to think deeply.

However, this is all my business, not yours. "

Misaka Mikoto was annoyed and a little hysterical.

Every word of the other party can directly hit the weakest part of his heart, as if he knows her better than herself.

"Or what, like the plot in the comics, are you the [future me] who ran to the past to preach to the younger self?"

Misaka Mikoto said irritably casually.

But in the next instant, she realized that this possibility was really not impossible.

Misaka Mikoto looked up at the girl opposite her in a daze, and found that the other party was nodding with a smile, pondering:

[Well, it's not quite right to say that you are the future. 】

[It's just that she's still a little older than you, and she's a little older sister...what's the matter?Don't believe it? 】

Long-haired Misaka stared at him with a cold and unbelieving look on his face, and asked back.

Then, following the other party's gaze, he looked at his chest—at a glance, he saw the tops of his feet.

In an instant, Long-haired Misaka realized something, and his face flushed red:

【Where do you judge!Hello! ~】

【There is no way!Genetically determined things, okay? 】

【Can't blame me? ! ~I want my mom's body too, okay? 】

"Is that so, am I helpless..."

Misaka Mikoto fell into deeper despair for a moment.
