reawakens John's pen (though she loses control of it)

(The other trump card!!)

She targeted the silver-haired girl.

The one in a storybook princess dress colored white with reddish-purple lines.

She apparently worked for the Anglican Church(?) as a magician(???), so Shokuhou did not know if she could actually control her. An auto-fuse that used some system related to a funeral or something was currently in effect, but the pointy-haired boy in a tuxedo had said there was a loophole there.

“John’s Pen.”

That trap had supposedly already been lost, but if the residual memories remained, Shokuhou Misaki’s Mental Out could restore it within the silver girl’s mind. She could not directly control the girl, but that could change if she restored the backdoor previously installed there. It was like restoring your malfunctioning computer to an older state and bringing back a virus you thought you had already eliminated.

“Stop Misaka-san! Hurry!!”

“Warning: Chapter 0, Verse 0.”

Creepy magic circles appeared deep in her lovely eyes.

The silver-haired girl in a storybook princess’s dress moved in an inhuman way that may have been even more lifeless than Misaka Mikoto with her blue veil fluttering like a curtain.

(It… worked???)

And.

And.

And.
