BNHA: Accelerator The Strongest Hero

Chapter 209: Chapter 208: Unknown Power



If the "blood reversal" and "Overhaul" battle had continued for more than half a second, Chisaki Kai would likely have given up his life just to escape the pain that was many times worse than "egg pain" and "childbirth."

However, someone's torment did not last any longer.

To be precise, it was interrupted.

A purple beam, composed of several golden, polygonal shapes, shot through the air.

This was a force that ordinary people could not understand, made of the unknown and even repelling it.

If you were to compare this deadly energy to advanced kinetic weapons like an electromagnetic cannon, the energy level of the former was several times higher than that of the latter. If you had to describe it, it would be like comparing the amount of nitrogen in one cubic meter of air to the same cubic meter of liquid nitrogen.

Due to the overwhelming power of this [unknown] attack, Accelerator was very cautious. He didn't use pure [reflection] to take on this unusual purple beam; instead, he quickly replaced his usual mental formula for [reflection] with [refraction].

It must be said that this instinct, as fierce as a battle beast, kept him from being injured.

Whether it was [reflection] or [refraction], both were forms of [vector manipulation], which meant that as long as something touched his skin, he could freely control the vector direction of anything.

For Accelerator, all abilities had to be based on changing the target's "vector" direction as a prerequisite. This meant that both the "original direction" and the "changed direction" had to be calculated.

That purple beam clearly belonged to the [unknown realm]. Fortunately, after this attack easily pierced through the [refraction], Accelerator quickly dodged the attack at supersonic speed.

The woman saved by Accelerator who was with Chisaki Kai was none other than Kiyama Harumi.

Her Quirk was dark and gloomy, and she looked exhausted, wearing a white lab coat. With her brown hair and decent figure, she was a striking but somewhat pitiful beauty. Now, she was panting heavily, speaking weakly.

"Don't worry... If possible... I don't mean to oppose you."

"I... just want to save him... that's all."

Chisaki Kai, who was half-dead nearby, was confused about his "ally's" cooperation. He was clearly caught in the aftermath of the two powerful forces clashing on the battlefield, enduring the hardest hits from a wave of energy that merely represented "restoration."

As Chisaki carefully used [refraction] to deal with the purple beam, he suddenly realized this was a type of [vector] he had never encountered before.

No, it should be described as a "new realm" made of an "unknown" that was as numerous as the stars. 

If you thought about it differently, it might look like this.

It's not about using the [Erasure] Quirk or powers like the [Fantasy Killer] to negate the superpower itself.

It's also not about targeting him through the "flaws" or "weaknesses" in calculations.

It's pure [Information Flow] taken to the extreme.

This is a brand-new force that surpasses anything Accelerator knows, something no one in the Academy City has discovered yet.

It's like the [Setting] described in the core memories of Mizukawa Ran's [Story].

However, someone does not believe they will lose.

While the power of this woman cannot be matched head-on in terms of quality, the super-speed he unleashed earlier was still far from his limit. He can confidently say that the speed at which that purple beam was fired must be her limit.

He can even foresee that he will be able to gauge her condition in future battles.

After all, just one shot of that purple beam, mixed with [Unknown] power, nearly drained the woman's body.

Under the perception of [Vector Manipulation], this woman in the white lab coat is in worse shape than those who stay up late and push themselves to the brink.

The rate of his heartbeat, muscle frequency, and the impact of his tired arms swaying in the air all prove that the woman is indeed in a very delicate state.

In terms of energy level as a threat, she's even greater than the "cost" of losing his All For One Quirk.

At this point, Accelerator is far beyond what he was in the Academy City.

To put it simply, the process that typically requires 250 years of regular training for someone with Accelerator's calculation ability, analytical skill, and gifted intelligence to evolve into a Level 6 [Absolute Ability User] has been shortened by about one-third under some indescribable [Rule].

This strength has been built by those "victories," something reminiscent of religion but fundamentally different from it.

This is the level of strength Accelerator has achieved so far. With his current computational power, he could easily take down thirty versions of himself from the Academy City era—not in a one-on-one fight, but by facing off against thirty of his past selves at once.

That's Accelerator's current state.

However, even if someone can't quite pinpoint the strange state the woman is in, coming to a definitive conclusion feels like they're not valuing their own life.

So now, the problem they face is whether to go after Chisaki Kai, choosing to fight against this woman who threatens his life and holds powers from an [Unknown] realm.

Or should he back down to preserve his own life and Eri's?

As if he thought of something, Accelerator smiled gently and said,

"Ah, since that's the case."

"If I get to decide, both of you weaklings can stay here!"

If relying on his pride could save that weak life behind him, he wouldn't hesitate to abandon his dignity.

Then, his expression shifted, transforming into a smile filled with distortion and madness as his emotions hit a peak.

He was indeed laughing wildly.

Accelerator knew well that he still had the energy to smile. 

As for the girl behind him, she had just gained the ability to smile. 

So, he wanted to protect her.

When it came to the sudden impulses that didn't suit him, Accelerator was more aware than anyone else. Since arriving in this world, he had never relaxed or taken a break; he was always preparing for the [future].

So, when Shokuhou Misaki told him that he might be a [character] in a [story], he dismissed it with disdain. Now, in order to gradually fulfill what he had said, he was willing to bet everything.

Accelerator pushed himself forward, taking a step toward a more distant future. 

A strong person can follow their true feelings and make the right choices. 

And his choice was that he wanted it all!

Whether it was to protect the important people in his life or to embrace the two worlds he had experienced, he wouldn't stop until the day those he cherished no longer yearned for their world.
