~Sword Art Online World~
"Phew... It’s finally over!"
Kirito breathed a sigh of relief after seeing everything conclude. After all, unlike previous videos, the gap in strength between these two was simply too vast.
"Yeah...."
Asuna also smiled. The death of the Misaka Sisters earlier, coupled with the inhumane experints, had been a dark experience. Now, her heart, which had been hanging by a thread, was finally put at ease.
In the end, the developnt of superpowers was itself a form of human experintation, which left her feeling very conflicted. Moreover, she learned sothing from the video.
High-LV ability users were definitely intelligent, but intelligent people weren’t necessarily high-LV... However, there was still a crucial question.
"Their superpowers are all through calculation... So, does Touma Kamijo’s ability require calculation?"
Asuna’s question silenced Kirito. But it seed to make so sense...
As they were pondering, the screen lit up again.
.....
"The Seal’s Seal is Still a Seal: Daihasei Festival Arc! "
[ "Academy City is vast, but only seven people are recognized as having LV 5 qualifications, and they are precisely our targets this ti."
The footage began to play, showing a conference room. Inside, a man in a short-sleeved suit loudly declared his objective.
"Are you serious?!" A committee mber beside him couldn’t sit still and stood up in surprise.
"It’s already been widely rumored that they are all individuals with personality defects."
So also expressed concern, as LV 5s were all problematic children.
"I also heard that so of them belong to dark side organizations and participate in illegal activities. Can we really take them down?"
One girl also said with so helplessness, "This ti, it’s not just Academy City; it will be broadcast worldwide. The higher-ups require a demonstration of abilities, with top-tier ability users serving as representatives."
"At least two LV 5s are needed to serve as the oath-takers for the Daihasei Festival contestants. Use all your connections to negotiate!!" ]
[ .....]
~Projection of All Worlds~
"What a bizarre title?! The Seal’s Seal is Still a Seal?! And I didn’t expect it to be that... peaceful Academy City."
"Good grief, you all looked so serious at first, I thought it was so big conspiracy... but it turns out you’re just discussing the selection of soone to take an oath for a sports festival?!"
Everyone present felt a bit embarrassed. They even said LV 5s were their targets, and they thought it was so grand conspiracy... but it was just this?! There was also one thing they got wrong: it wasn’t just broadcast worldwide; now every world was watching...
~Detective Conan World~
"Speaking of which, aren’t any of the LV 5s easy to deal with? Why do even the people in their world think they’re all problematic children?"
Conan stared with dead fish eyes. So far, only three LV 5s had appeared.
The one involved in shady dealings should be Mugino Shizuri. He wondered what kind of abilities would appear next.
Although Conan was intelligent, when it ca to superpowers, he was still in his middle school phase, which was adolescent. After all, what boy could refuse such cool things?
"However, it’s just a sports festival; it shouldn’t be as terrifying as before, right?"
Ran said with a worried expression. This seemingly everyday event didn’t seem to fit the title.
~A Certain Magical Index World, Academy City~
"Huh?! Problematic children?!"
Misaka Mikoto closed her eyes, arcs of electricity flashing around her bangs, crackling with blue and white light.
Who were they talking about?
"Perhaps the personalities of the other few aren’t great, but you can’t lump them all together."
Based on the few LV 5s she knew, Misaki Shokuhou seed a bit narcissistic, Mugino Shizuri was involved in shady dealings, and Accelerator, well, that went without saying... It seed only she was normal.
Misaka Mikoto was indulging in a bit of self-admiration, and she also felt slightly relieved, as it was just a sports festival and shouldn’t cause any major problems.
.....
[ Subsequently, the fourth-ranked Mugino Shizuri received the invitation call. Citing the inconvenience of her dark side work for public appearances, she rejected the offer without a second thought.
The second-ranked Kakine Teitoku was so annoyed by their persistent pestering that he turned his hotel room into a scene resembling a battlefield.
"The Daihasei Festival is just a ga for those brats who still believe in effort and hope."
anwhile, in an alley, a burly man dressed as a bodyguard, wearing sunglasses, called out to the white-haired youth in front of him:
"Looking good, Accelerator! Ever since the LV 6 Shift plan failed..."
Accelerator, who was walking with a cane, stopped, turned back with a cold expression, and directly used his ability. A brick flew towards the man, interrupting his words.
"What do you want with at this point? Are you asking to start killing clones again?!"
"Wait... no... listen to ..." The bodyguard, realizing he had said the wrong thing, quickly tried to explain, but was unceremoniously buried in a pile of garbage by Accelerator.
"I’m busy watching the kid, don’t show up again!" Accelerator left with his cane without looking back.
The scene shifted back to the initial conference room. They were still discussing counterasures, with several LV 5s whose nas were written on the blackboard crossed out.
"So... the fourth, second, and first ranked... all the people they approached were defeated. Especially the person who negotiated with the first-ranked is seriously injured and critical." ]
[ .....]
~Projection of All Worlds~
"Hahahaha, I’m dying of laughter. What kind of conversational geniuses are these? Are you sure you ca to negotiate? Your tone sounds more like you’re mocking them."
"This bodyguard is trying to kill with laughter, inheriting my credit card debt?! Stop pretending to be cool, just get to the point. If you can’t talk, don’t talk."
People from other worlds almost died laughing at their invitation thods.
They thought they were mocking them, these conversational geniuses who could hit every nerve precisely. No wonder they were defeated!
No... why would you provoke this great Accelerator for no reason? Do you really think his personality would allow him to say sothing passionate at the Daihasei Festival... Also, why are you wearing sunglasses in the middle of the night, seriously!!
What shocked everyone the most was that Accelerator’s reason for refusal was that he was busy taking care of a child?! And he even held back, not breaking the man’s limbs this ti. It seed his personality had changed a bit.
"Holy crap... I woke up and saw this great guy say he had to go back and take care of his kid."
~Type-Moon World, Fifth Holy Grail War Worldline~
Even Rin Tohsaka couldn’t help but twitch the corner of her mouth as she watched this scene. They really weren’t wrong; all the LV 5s were problematic individuals.
"Is his superpower courage?!"
Archer, who had been calm, widened his eyes, full of admiration. This bodyguard knew about the previous plan and still spoke with such a mocking tone.
He had to say, he was truly a man... If he’s still alive, he’ll probably have to go to a temple to pray when he gets ho. It’s like divine intervention!
"Now I know another second-ranked existence, but it seems they’re not easy to deal with either."
Emiya Shirou felt a headache coming on when he saw the battlefield-style room.
How dare they invite such a person to take the oath for the Daihasei Festival? Aren’t they afraid that if the second-ranked person gets unhappy, they’ll just slaughter all the students? Who can stop the second-ranked person then?
.....
[ "Was this commission so unpleasant?!" Hearing about the serious injury, everyone present was surprised.
"It shouldn’t be that bad, right?"
"By the way, there are too many people who call themselves the sixth-ranked..." Speaking of this, they couldn’t help but feel a headache.
"Next, the remaining LV 5s are..."
The scene shifted. On the stage, two groups of students were arguing over the venue. As a mber of the disciplinary committee, Haruue walked out directly.
The students, already agitated, swung a huge pillar towards her! Haruue was so scared she froze in place and closed her eyes.
The expected pain didn’t co. When she opened her eyes again, she saw a man wearing his school uniform like a cape standing in front of her.
The seventh-ranked Sogiita Gunha, with a fiery spirit, stood on the pillar, arms crossed, saying: "What’s important isn’t the difference between n and won, it’s character!"
anwhile, a teacher on the other side accepted the commission on his behalf.
"The matter ntioned just now is fine, I accept it. At a ti like this, he must be busy helping others; he won’t refuse a request from others."
The teacher said with emotion, "That’s the kind of person he is, a man nad Sogiita Gunha!" ]
[ .....]
~Projection of All Worlds~
"Oh!!! Is this the seventh one? He looks like a passionate youth, not like they said he has personality defects."
"Good grief, so he’s also a good Samaritan, a partner of justice, who won’t refuse to help others? He and Emiya Shirou will definitely get along."
For so reason, the first impression everyone had of Sogiita Gunha was that he was a passionate idiot! Although he was also a good old man, they hoped he wouldn’t be like Emiya Shirou.
After all, the partner of justice next door had already lost all his family mbers. Let’s not have him end up the sa way.
~Sword Art Online World~
"Mhm!"
Kirito observed Sogiita Gunha, nodding in agreent.
Asuna, on the side, looked at him strangely. She didn’t have this reaction when she saw Misaka Mikoto earlier!
"What are you nodding about?!"
Kirito scratched his head sheepishly and explained,
"Uh... I an, this Sogiita Gunha must be the protagonist of this video title!!"
After all, a passionate youth, kind-hearted, and helpful! Plus, his first impression was that he was an idiot, which perfectly matched his ideal protagonist template, just like the manga he usually read.
『 Viewers of Countless World 』
Even many people from other worlds thought the sa way. After all, this Sogiita Gunha, who was full of integrity, really seed like a protagonist!
.....
[ Afterward, the scene shifted to a blonde girl with stars in her eyes, who was having afternoon tea with a group of junior students. She happened to see Misaka Mikoto passing by.
"Oh my, Misaka-san, looking at those things on campus is a violation of school rules. You have the qualifications to serve as the oath-taker for the Daihasei Festival contestants, a rather bold attitude."
Facing Misaki Shokuhou’s teasing, Mikoto irritably clasped the map in her hand.
"You’ve received the invitation too, right? Misaki Shokuhou!"
"I hate troubleso things the most, so I want to hand it over to you, Misaka-san." Misaki Shokuhou picked up her bag, took out a remote control, and pressed it towards Misaka Mikoto.
"Beep—"
"Crack crackle..." A flash of electricity suddenly appeared on Mikoto’s forehead, and she looked at Misaki Shokuhou angrily.
"You bastard!"
"The electromagnetic barrier is really troubleso." Misaki Shokuhou said, unfazed that her ability didn’t take effect.
"It doesn’t interfere with my ntal control."
"Then how about letting the public recomnd soone!"
So Misaki Shokuhou pressed the remote control in her hand again. The junior students beside her suddenly stood up automatically, their eyes turning into starry eyes.
Then, they spoke in unison, "We believe Misaka-san is suitable to serve as the oath-taker."
Misaka Mikoto didn’t want to deal with it and turned to leave.
"I know very well that you hate ."
Misaka Mikoto left, Misaki Shokuhou said a cryptic sentence, "Perhaps it’s not just simple hatred for you." ]
[ .....]
~Projection of All Worlds~
"Holy crap, she has stars in her eyes. It’s a sha she’s not an idol. This is the legendary ’glowing eyes’."
"ntal control! Another absurd ability. The key point is that this rank 5?! Academy City is truly full of hidden talents."
Looking at the bewildered and manipulated junior students, for so reason, everyone felt a sense of "I choose Misaka Mikoto, she has everyone’s support." What kind of modern-day Lü Bu is this?
Then everyone was stunned. Where is the sixth one?! Academy City’s sixth one, they’ve all appeared, why isn’t he showing his face? And this thing can impersonate others?
People from other worlds are not fools; they know that by inviting them to participate in the Daihasei Festival oath-taking, they are indirectly introducing the seven LV 5s... However, now, except for the sixth-ranked one, all of them have shown their faces, but the sixth one is nowhere to be seen.
