misaka worst landing

One of Academy City’s supersonic bombers was flying through the sky. That alone was
fairly common due to the war. However, the bomber dropped something above the ruins
of the base. It wasn’t a parachute. It was something equipped with glider wings that
looked like a complex hang glider.
He could see a human figure.
He didn’t think any further than that.
It was an enemy.
He clicked his tongue once as he came to that conclusion.
Immediately afterwards, Accelerator hit the switch on his electrode and kicked some
pebbles at his feet.
With an explosive noise, the glider was shot down.
However, the figure did not fall down and strike the ground.
He saw some purple electricity sparking.
The figure’s speed lowered in stages as it fell and finally landed softly on the ground.
(...The person detonated the air?)
Accelerator gave that guess as to what the figure had done, but it didn’t surprise him.
After all, he himself had once jumped out of a bomber over the French city of Avignon
without a parachute.
What he was interested in was the power the figure had used.
Electricity.
And it was a power Accelerator was quite familiar with.
