Zongman started from grabbing girls with Wuhe Shidao

"Look, it really isn't hard to eat."

"...Really...really?"

"You are so considerate, in order to help me relieve fatigue, did you make it sour on purpose?"

"Huh? Uh... sour... sour?"

Chew and chew.

"Don't worry, I dare to eat sour. Thank you. You are like my brother."

With a bright smile, Index ate intently, with bean sprouts still on her cheeks.

"what......"

"Are you hungry too?"

"......what?"

"If you're not hungry, can you give me all these dishes? I can't wait..."

Index looked up at Kamijou from bottom to top, and bit the tip of the chopsticks in her mouth.Seeing Index with such an expression, Kamijou made up his mind.

This is God's will.You have to be responsible for eating what you make yourself.

This time it has nothing to do with whether it is unfortunate or not, it is purely self-inflicted.

Kamijou Touma stuffed the hot "garbage" into his mouth and smiled.

The girl who called herself Index was gnawing on a biscuit with a dissatisfied expression.She looks like a squirrel since she's holding biscuits in both hands and chewing on them.

"By the way, you said that someone is chasing you, who is chasing you?"

Although she asked, Kamijou didn't intend to go through this muddy water for a girl he'd only known for three or ten minutes.But now, it seems impossible to completely pretend to be an outsider.

Anyway, let's pretend to be kind, Kamijou thought.Although I can't help her solve any problems, at least I can convince myself "I tried my best".

"Hmm..." The girl said in a thirsty voice, "I don't know either. Maybe it's the 'Rosary Cross' or the 'Golden Dawn'. Although I can guess the organizations, I don't know the names of those people." ...and the names don't mean anything to them."

"them?"

Kamijou repeated in bewilderment.The opponent is a group, an organization?

But Index, who was being chased, was very calm, and said after a "hmm":

"They are magical associations."

"What? Magic? Uh...what's that? Did I hear wrong?"

"Ah... Huh...? Uh... Do I speak weird Japanese? I mean MAGIC! MAGIC CABAL!"

"..." After she explained it in English, Kamijou became even more confused: "What the hell is that? You're talking about that mysterious new religion with the teaching that 'people who don't believe in the ancestors will be condemned by heaven'" , An organization that lets people take strange drugs and then brainwash them? That sounds really dangerous enough."

"...Are you trying to make fun of me?"

"Uh……"

"...Are you trying to make fun of me?"

"...Sorry, I can't do it. It's really impossible for me to believe in the existence of magic. Although I am familiar with superpowers such as the ability to ignite fire and see-through ability, or superpowers, when it comes to magic, I really don't know. unbelievable."

"...?"

Index tilted her head and thought.

If you are an ordinary person who embraces scientific omnipotence, you will definitely shout at this time: "There is nothing in the world that science cannot prove!"

However, Kamijou's right hand really has some kind of "supernatural power".

As long as one possesses this extraordinary "superpower" called "Fantasy Killer", even miracles that only appear in myths will be completely invisible.

"In this Academy City, superpowers are not uncommon. As long as the medicine is injected into the vein, the neck is passed an electric current, and the ear listens to the special rhythm of the earphone, anyone's brain can be 'developed'. Everything can be done with the help of science. To explain, who can deny its existence?"

"...I don't quite understand what you're saying."

"You don't need to understand! All in all, superpowers are genuine and natural!"

"...Then why can't magic work? Magic is also a matter of course!"

Index had a dissatisfied expression on her face. It felt like someone criticizing your pet for being just a mongrel cat.

"Uh... Let me put it this way, do you know boxing guessing? Hey, wait, is boxing guessing a common culture in the world?"

"...It should be Japanese culture, but I know."

"Suppose you lose ten times in a row for ten times in a row, do you think there is a reason for this?"

"……Well……"

"Of course there is no reason, right? But humans will think that there is a force manipulating it!" Kamijou said in a boring tone: "Most people will think how can they be so unlucky, there must be something invisible The laws of existence exist. And when one thinks this way, what if the element of 'astrology' is mixed in?"

"...For example, 'You are a Cancer, your luck is not good now, so don't gamble!', right?"

"Magic and mystical powers around us are actually produced in this way. People imagine that there is an invisible law in their own destiny, and regard some trivial things that happen by chance as destiny. This is 'magic'. "

Index pouted like a displeased cat for a while before saying:

"...It seems that you don't believe it for no reason."

"That's right. But it's because I've thought about it seriously that I can't believe those ridiculous words. Who can believe that the magician in the fairy tale book really exists? If you can resurrect the dead by spending MP, who would use super powers?" Development? There is no scientific basis for 'magic', how can I believe it?"

As for those who don't believe in the existence of "superpowers", they are just a bunch of idiots.

In this Academy City, "superpowers" are already common knowledge, which can be reasonably explained by science.

"...But, there really is magic!"

Index pouted and said.Perhaps, "magic" is already like a spiritual pillar to her, just like "Fantasy Killer" is to Kamijou.

"Okay, whatever. Then why are they chasing you—"

"...It's really magical!"

"..."

"It's really magical!"

It seemed like she was going to admit it no matter what.
