A Happy Ending for Everyone

"Wait for me!" Kuroko channeled his grief into fighting spirit, teleporting away to dodge the incoming shells.

Sister Gufua, sped forward on her motorcycle and soon caught up with Kiyama Harumi's vehicle.

Just then, a huge roar came, the stable overpass shook, and then a huge yellow mecha creature emerged from under the bridge.

"Hahahaha, run away! The more frantically you run, the more worthwhile it is to kill you."

Christina's maniacal laughter emanated from inside the mech, and the massive machine sent Sister Gufua's motorcycle flying.

With a scream, Railgun used her electric current to pull herself towards Kiyama Harumi's vehicle, landing steadily on its roof. Meanwhile, Kurotama spun around in mid-air, severing two rocks that were hurtling towards her, then used the momentum to land on the roof of the same vehicle, stepping onto the edge of the bridge.

"Ha?"

Perhaps it was because Kurotama's figure was too agile, Christina screamed when she noticed her.

"It's you again? You annoying guy, I can't believe you're here too. You almost made me lose a leg."

"Almost... So your legs are back on? Looks like I should have been more ruthless and just severed your head."

Kurotama knew that the other party intended to kill her, so she was prepared to completely eliminate this guy.

This time, we absolutely cannot let her live.

"Prepare to die."

Christina rushed forward, and the mech's right arm, guided by a powerful gust of air, launched in this direction.

Railgun released a bolt of electricity, but it had absolutely no effect.

The two had to lie down so that their arms brushed past their heads.

Boom!

With a loud bang, one side of the bridge collapsed.

"Phew, at least this guy is also a master of human figure outlining."

Kurotama wiped away a cold sweat. If that attack had hit the car, everyone inside would be doomed.

"Damn it, let me take care of her."

Railgun got up, took out a coin from her body, and tossed it into the air.

The spectacular scene of the A Certain Scientific Railgun being fired appeared before Kurotama's eyes, but Christina's mecha also retreated almost simultaneously, moving out of range.

"What?"

"Hahaha, I know all your abilities now. The electromagnetic cannon's range is only fifty meters, right? As long as I back off, you won't be able to do anything about it. Now, you can all obediently go to hell."

"You..."

The arm fired again.

Kurotama simply leaped forward, disregarding the intensity of the sunlight, and directly sacrificed the Upper Rank Six siblings.

Although they die quickly under the light, they still have a brief moment of usability before that.

Boom!

Daki's countless ribbons stopped the flying arm.

Kurotama's body twisted strangely in mid-air, then she drew Yatsufusa and slashed swiftly downwards.

Buzz—

The arm was broken in two.

Gyutaro launched a fierce attack, smashing the arm into pieces. Kurotama then kicked one of the pieces towards Railgun.

"Electromagnetic gun!"

Good!

Having understood this, Railgun roared, concentrating the electricity throughout her body into her hands.

"I can knock away more than just coins. Watch closely, this is my full strength."

Accompanied by a powerful electric current, a blinding beam of light pierced through the mech and shot straight into the sky. Christina screamed in agony, then her voice abruptly ceased.

"Well, this isn't your full strength either."

Kurotama chuckled in mid-air and floated lightly to the ground.

The few Kuroko who were teleported to the scene also breathed a sigh of relief.

"Honestly, this is so worrying."

This battle is now completely over.

Chapter 235 A Happy Ending

"Wait a moment, I'll go finish him off."

Just a few seconds after feeling relieved, Kurotama seemed to remember something, turned around and shouted to Railgun and the others, then rushed quickly towards the distant mecha ruins.

In the original storyline, Christina was lucky enough not to die from the A Certain Scientific Railgun, but just in case, she still went to check on it.

"Finish off? Does she really think the enemy isn't dead after such a powerful attack from her Onee-sama? Honestly." Kuroko tossed her long hair in annoyance. "She doesn't even believe in her older sister's strength."

As Kurotama approached her destination, she saw Christina, dressed in a protective suit, crawling out of the mech.

"Hahaha, I'm still alive! I'm still alive! I'll definitely become a Level 6 ability user! You just wait!"

Lying on the ground, she let out a wild laugh. Although she had some injuries, she was in relatively good condition because the electromagnetic cannon hadn't hit her head-on.

But the next moment, she couldn't laugh anymore.

"Is being alive something to be happy about?"

"What?"

I turned my head abruptly and saw the lovely Kurotama leaning quietly against the wall.

The Yatsufusa, spotless and untouched by blood, gleamed with a cold light, radiating a terrifying killing intent.

Despite the Upper Rank Six siblings disappearing in the sunlight, Kurotama felt no pity whatsoever. The loss of the two demons freed her from the constraints imposed by the puppets, and her fighting power was now at least significantly higher than before.

It's like a buff skill has been applied to Upper Rank One; Kurotama is in incredibly good shape right now.

She felt that she should perhaps sacrifice most of the demons, leaving only one Upper Rank Three.

"You, you devil, you actually chased after us."

"Hmm, yeah, because my gut tells me you won't die, so I'm here to sentence you to death."

Kurotama stuck out his tongue, licked the knife, and then tossed it in front of Christina.

"Come on, let's duel! I'll fight you empty-handed, and you'll use my weapon, shall we?"

"You... you're kidding, right? Hahaha, you're actually giving me a weapon?"

Christina laughed in exasperation and grabbed Yatsufusa, saying, "You'll regret this."

"Yes, but you definitely won't regret it as much as I do."

Kurotama turned his head, watching Christina's smile fade, and shrugged helplessly. "My weapon is called the March of the Dead. It's made from a terrifyingly dangerous substance Upper Rank One rare and unusual species. For some reason, it's basically impossible for ordinary people other than me to use it. Even a simple touch will bring unbearable terror."

Christina quickly let out a painful cry.

The weapon in her hand seemed to come alive, emitting a heartbeat, and a terrifying devouring power emanated from it. An indescribable phantom of a terrifying ancient beast appeared before her.

Of course, to onlookers, she was just wailing, and then blood began to flow uncontrollably from her seven orifices.

As the sounds grew increasingly shrill, Kurotama couldn't help but cover her ears with her hands.

It was a little scary because the way they died was so gruesome.

She only knew that Imperial Arms could not be used by people she did not approve of, but she never expected it to be so terrifying.

"Does that mean we can just throw the knife to our opponent in battle from now on?"

She gave a wry smile, realizing that her thoughts had been somewhat naive.

True powerhouses are able to withstand the corrosive effects of Imperial Arms; otherwise, how could they possibly defeat their users?

When Christina was completely turned into a corpse, Kurotama stepped forward, picked up the weapon, and then summoned Rikku, using her ability to deal with her.

Instead of destroying the body, they disguised its appearance so that it looked no different from a normal dead person.

Having resolved everything, he turned to go back, only to find Kuroko suddenly appearing in front of him.

"How... did you kill her?" Kuroko looked shocked.

"You saw it?"

"I saw you throw the knife to her."

"Well, in that case, I have nothing to hide anymore. It's the ability of this body, but I didn't expect it to be so terrifying, because I've never used it before."

"But you..."

"Do you know what Christina's real purpose is?"

Worried that the other party would blame her, Kurotama changed the subject.

"What is the purpose?"

"She wants to become Absolute Ability User, and she doesn't mind waking up the children who are being used as test subjects. Once she does that, the entire Academy City will collapse in a devastating Chaotic Opening, and thousands of innocent people will be killed. I simply cannot tolerate such a thing."

Kuroko was silent for a while, then finally sighed, "I understand, but your behavior... is really a bit terrifying."

"I didn't expect this either." Kurotama scratched her head awkwardly. "Also, keep what you just saw a secret from others, so Misaka and the others don't worry."

"All right."

After searching inside Christina's mech for a while, the two unexpectedly discovered the Original Sample capable of safely reviving the children. With this, Kiyama Harumi's students could regain consciousness without causing Chaotic Opening.

Upon returning to the previous location, they discovered that Chuharu, Ruizi, and Kiyama Harumi had already gotten out of the car.

"So, is Christina dead?"

"Yes, the finishing blow was successful. She's gone mad, willing to destroy Academy City, so I had no choice but to deal with her," Kurotama said.

"Is that so?" Railgun, sounding slightly uncomfortable. "Let's go save those children now."

"Good."

The convoy headed to its destination in School District 23.

Inside the enormous research facility, which resembled a factory, people saw children lying inside glass enclosures.

Among them were Kiyama Harumi's students and Haruue Harue, who was forcibly taken away.

To be honest, because they hadn't had much contact, Kurotama had completely forgotten about her.

However, the result was quite good.

"To get them out, we need to crack some of the code. Please wait a moment."

Chuharu used her strengths and opened the glass lid in just a few minutes.

One by one, the sleeping children were successfully awakened.

Seeing the children he had been trying so hard to save smiling in front of him, Kiyama Harumi finally couldn't hold back his tears.

"Teacher, you have very dark circles under your eyes."

Faced with the children's questions, Mr. Kiyama couldn't utter a single word.

"Everyone's happy, everyone's happy." Saten Ruiko clapped her hands.

"Now let's think about how to celebrate, how about a dinner party tonight?" Kurotama said, stroking her chin.

"Let's go to Senior Kofu's residence then," Chuharu excitedly raised her hand.

"Huh?" Sister Gufua's eyes widened.

"Okay." Railgun Mikoto nodded immediately. "Take the kids with you."

"Wait a minute, aren't there too many people like this?"

"Not many, not many."
