"If there were even the slightest chance that I could defeat you, I would have acted. But I know that's simply impossible. Still, for Misaka's safety, I have to say this: you're now connected to every Misaka Sister, Imagine Breaker, Railgun, and you possess incomparably terrifying power yourself..." the man said solemnly.
"So someone in Academy City's upper ranks is afraid of me?"
The man nodded. "Yes. They may not be able to do anything to you, but..."
"But they want to use the people around me against me?" Chen Fan said with a cold laugh.
The man did not answer, which was as good as admitting it. That was indeed the case. Academy City's General Chairman rarely involved himself in affairs, always operating behind the scenes. Nearly all decisions were made by the thirteen board members. They had all kinds of surveillance measures in place for every Level 5 student to prevent rebellion. Although they stood opposed to the magic side, every board member had more or less some connection to people on the magic side.
Chen Fan smiled. "Then go tell those board members that if they want to stay alive, they should do what they're supposed to do. Don't sit around worrying like a bunch of clowns. Whether I rebel or not is for me to decide. Don't go looking for death. If they dare lay a hand on my people, I'll destroy the entire world for them to see. The old world put power above all else; this world is decided by strength. Anyone Chen Fan wants dead has never survived. I won't pursue this matter since they haven't gone too far this time. But if they do anything out of line, they'd better prepare their coffins. Otherwise, they won't even have a place to lie
