Before this battle started, in order not to cause too much commotion inside Academy City, the magician used rune engravings around the streets to disperse pedestrians who might pass by.

However, this did not prevent some outsiders from watching.

The summer night wind swirls through the tall buildings, and the three-leaf spiral blades that can be seen everywhere reflect faint light in the moonlight.

Unnoticed by most people, it happens to be a full moon tonight.

A few wisps of floating clouds floated across the edge of the full moon, and the clear light of the moonlight illuminated the sudden battle that broke out under the tall building, and also illuminated the few slender figures standing upright on the top of the building.

"Before the scheduled actors showed up, Xiao Huiyue got into a fight with someone else."

Lazily stuffing a marshmallow into his mouth, the white-haired young man stood on the edge of the high-rise building in a posture of watching the excitement. The high-altitude wind passed under his feet, causing the hem of his clothes to fly.

"That bird is really protecting the calf. It rushed out before the time came."

Although the tone was complaining, his expression was full of interest, as if these little accidents beyond the plan were not troubles at all, but only made him more interested.

The young man standing on his left bowed, "Do you need me to go down and clean up the place, Master Bai Lan?"

"No need." Bai Lanjiesuo squeezed out another marshmallow from the snack bag with a smile, "Surprises come from accidents. You see Huiyue sauce is so angry, do you have the heart to go down and disturb her?"

"So, follow your will."

At the same time, Kamijou Touma was in a considerable degree of confusion, and Misaka sister who rushed over with Teruzuki was also a little at a loss.

Right in front of them, Sugawara Teruzuki and the enemy above him, Kanzaki Kaori, had been fighting for 10 minutes.

Sword light and murderous intent spread in the air, and the collision of weapons sounded from time to time in the night like more and more rapid drumbeats.

With the above-mentioned Touma's dynamic vision, he could almost only see the afterimages passing by in the street, and every sound of weapons exchange made his face more ugly.

"What happened on the way you guys came here?" He turned his head to look at Sister Misaka beside him, with a gloomy light in his pupils.

Sister Misaka has already put on the tactical auxiliary telescope, closely following the movements of the two people in front of her, "'Nothing happened', Misaka recalled earnestly, 'Misaka just found your location in the Misaka network, and brought her here.' 'Her anomalies started after she got here', 'to be precise, after seeing you hurt'."

"'It should be caused by excessive emotional fluctuations after seeing someone close to him get hurt,' Misaka reasoned."

Kamijou Touma's eyes trembled, and he gritted his teeth, "But, even if it's a supernatural runaway, it won't be..."

The detonation of the exchange of long blades resounded through the night sky again, a golden streamer flashed, and the two fighting figures stopped at the same time, facing each other a few steps away.The moonlight and lights illuminate the silhouette of Huiyue standing with an umbrella, a sliver of moonlight flows along the vermilion umbrella surface to the umbrella tip, and the elegant and precious color exudes a mysterious sense of danger in the night.

The wind crossing the street messed up the girl's long hair draped behind her shoulders, and Kamijou Touma keenly noticed that the white streak from the end of her hair had gone up a lot.

"People over there." In the spreading silence, Kanzaki suddenly said unexpectedly, "Your companions are not in the right state."

"I don't even need you to tell me this!"

"I don't mean her emotions." Kanzaki didn't care about his anger caused by his nervousness, and continued, "I mean, her loss of control is artificially created, and there are traces of magic on her body."

Her words were beyond everyone's expectation. At that moment, it was as if a bolt of lightning struck Kamijou Touma's mind, and he was completely stunned.

"What did you say?"

"It's meaningless to fight her here." Kanzaki Kaori clenched the handle of the knife, and the long knife tilted slightly, "Your right hand can destroy magic, right? I'll control her, you quickly find the source of the magic on her body .”

"Wait, why are you doing such a thing? This kind of behavior is equivalent to providing us with help? We are enemies, right?"

"As I said, it is meaningless to fight her here." Kanzaki Kaori didn't look at him, and just closed one eye gently, "If the magic is not destroyed, only the two of us will have a complete victory It can only be terminated, I already... don't want to kill people."

Is what she said true?

This idea only flashed in his mind for a moment, and Kamijou Touma intuitively chose to believe it.He barely stood up from the ground staggeringly, and looked at the girl standing in front of him with her back turned.

"... Huiyue."

The black-haired girl didn't respond, she still stood there quietly.

He clenched his fist violently.

At an angle he couldn't see, a silver symbol lit up in Sugawara Teruzuki's pupils, her eyes locked on the person opposite her, her lips moved slightly and whispered softly.

"...Enemy, obliterate."

Kanzaki Kaori sighed softly, slowly sheathed the long knife, and lowered his center of gravity, "Here declares the magic name, [Slavere000]"

The next moment, the long knife was out of its sheath, and the light of Iai Zhan's knife pierced through the moonlight, like a bright wing of light, slashed straight at the girl a few steps away.

Huiyue's figure instantly disappeared in place.

Instead of turning her body sideways to avoid it, she jumped directly into the air, a pair of long and narrow wings spread out on her back, the long hair draped behind her shoulders was blown away by the gust of wind, and a few rays of moonlight leaked through.She hovered in mid-air on the empty air, and quickly raised her umbrella to block the second attack from bottom to top.

There was a brief moment of wrestling between the sharp knife light and the umbrella tip, and it only stopped for an instant. The vermilion big umbrella quickly raised the knife light, and the girl holding the umbrella was like an offline arrow, aiming at Kanzaki Kaori on the ground. Shot away.

Kanzaki raised his saber quickly, and the blade of Qitian Qidao collided with the umbrella wing again.The moonlight reflected from the bright blade, illuminating the eyes of the girl in front of her.Across the Seven Heavens and Seven Swords and the vermilion Tang Umbrella, Kanzaki caught sight of the slowly turning silver runes in those eyes of the same color as the sea water.

She frowned slightly, and said a few words quickly and silently.The steel wire that previously controlled Qishan shot from all directions like lightning, and tightly entangled Tang Shan who was wrestling with her.

The girl opposite her seemed to be slightly taken aback, and was about to withdraw her weapon while holding the handle of the umbrella.Kanzaki seized the opportunity and shouted behind her, "Kamijou Touma!"

A pair of hands stretched out from Huiyue's back, clasped her waist and hugged her tightly.The unexpected obstacle caused the black-haired girl to widen her eyes, and turned her head subconsciously.

"...Dang Ma?"

The black feathers fell from mid-air, turning into shimmering stars before landing.Kamijou Touma's face was very close behind her, panting slightly, his face was still a little pale, his eyes were very clear from this distance, the deep pupils were like the endless deep sea, on the surface of the sea Reflecting the sparkling waves, distant and gentle.

He slowly raised his right hand, covering her looking eyes, the wet blood slipped from his fingertips, and a drop fell on the girl's snow-white skirt.

"It's okay, Huiyue. Take a break and leave the rest to me."

Sugawara Teruzuki's consciousness suddenly became a little confused, and her eyelids slowly drooped.Kamijou Touma's palms in front of her eyes blocked the external light. In this peaceful darkness, she could smell the faint scent of lavender from the boy's skirt behind her, which was the smell of laundry detergent that had just been changed at home.When she realized this, she felt safe for no reason, and then closed her eyes in relief, letting her consciousness fall into a deep sleep.

The slender eyelashes brushed against his palm and slowly closed, Kamijou Touma took a step back, catching the person who fell into his arms.The wounds from the previous battle were still screaming on him, he gritted his teeth, swayed his body slightly, and then slowly sat down on his knees, carefully letting the girl in his arms lean on his shoulders, then raised his head and looked at him. The enemy a few minutes ago.

This accident happened in the middle, and they seemed to be unable to continue the fight.

"I don't understand." After a few seconds of silence, Kamijou Touma said, "You don't seem like a really cold-blooded person. Since you are willing to lend a helping hand to your enemies, why can't you let Index go like this? An ordinary girl?"

Kanzaki Kaori put the knife back into its sheath, lowered her eyes slightly after hearing his words, "...I'm here to protect her."

"The injury on Index's back was caused by you, are you protecting her like this?"

For some reason, the powerful magician who was just now was forced to take a step back by this sentence, and his voice was even a little overwhelmed, "I... I didn't know that her 'Mobile Church' was destroyed. That knife won't do her any harm."

Kamijou Touma stared at her, "But you attacked her anyway."

Kanzaki closed her eyes and remained silent.

Kamijou took a low breath, the pain caused by the wound was still screaming in his body, and there was not much energy left in his body.He folded his arms, and leaned the girl on his shoulders into his arms again.The girl's soft black hair grazed his neck, her slender eyelashes rested quietly on the lower eyelids, and the tip of the tail seemed to be condensed with a touch of moonlight.

Kamijou Touma lowered his eyes slightly, the black-haired girl was still sleeping, quietly curled up in his arms like a large doll, rarely so cute.Kamijou Touma's gaze fell on the end of her eyes, and he suddenly said, "Did you mention the Yin Yang Dao before?"

Kanzaki Kaori responded quickly to this question, "Yes, if I guessed correctly, the girl in your arms should be from the Sugawara family of Kitano Tenmangu."

"Ah, I don't understand at all." Kamijou Touma frowned impatiently, still looking at the person in his arms without looking up, "Yin Yang Dao, Kitano Tenmangu, the magic formula that made her lose control, why did she appear Here, why amnesia... I don't know anything, I don't even know what the principle of the magic spell on her is, whether it has something to do with her amnesia, I just destroyed it, and she opened it again Do you still remember me when I saw you..."

His right hand hanging by his side was clenched suddenly, and a large amount of blood gushed out from the wound, flowing continuously down the knuckles that were on the ground.However, the black-haired boy seemed to feel no pain at all, his voice was low and hoarse, "Compared to you who know everything and are powerful, am I a weak person through and through?"

"But even so, I still want to protect something, even if I risk my life."

"So I don't understand why a guy like you, who can protect anything and save anyone if he wants, chooses to do something like persecute an innocent girl?"

Kamijou Touma's questioning fell in the silent night.

Kanzaki Kaori remained silent for a longer time this time.

"I'm also... not willing to do this kind of thing..." After an unknown amount of time, she said softly, the emotion behind her voice was as dry as if she had tried her best to support herself and endured it for a long time, "But if you don't do this , if you don't take Index back to clear her memory, she will die..."

Unable to understand what she was saying at all, Kamijou Touma frowned and raised his head, "Why?"

"As I said, I did it to protect her. Index and I belong to the Church of Necessary Evil. She is my compatriot, and even more importantly, my best friend..."

Kanzaki stared at Kamijou Touma who was half kneeling on the ground, she could no longer attack him directly, doing so would bring the girl in his arms into the range of attack.

Not to mention the issue of her unwillingness to take action against an innocent person, she had already vaguely guessed the identity of this young girl.If it continues, it will only lead to an ending, which is to completely turn against Kitano Tenmangu, one of Japan's three great gods.

In the end, she turned her head slightly and chose to open the wound she was least willing to mention.

"Have you ever heard of the ability of perfect memory? Index, is the... victim of that ability."
