large wave of snow

Right there in that place, he had to muster all his strength and truly go all out as he
fought.
A wind roared.
One of the wings turned into dozens of sharp stakes and flew forcefully towards the
Level 0 boy who was running towards Accelerator. Instead of aiming for that small
target from many different angles, the attack was more like a carpet bombing of an
entire area that the boy happened to be in.
A shock wave exploded out.
White snow and black dirt exploded up greater than ten meters into the air obstructing
Accelerator’s vision. He could tell huge cracks had appeared in various places on the
ground. Distant seismographs had likely detected that shaking.
The boy who had been in the center of the blast could not be fine.

Even with the ability to negate powers with his right hand, he wouldn’t have been able to
intercept every single attack.
He had certainly been damaged.
There was no way the Level 0 boy could have saved himself.
And the shock waves created by even one of the dozens of stakes held enough
destructive force to smash a human body to pieces.
It had to be over.
With that victory, Accelerator had lost some form of hope.
And yet...
A figure shakily stood before Accelerator.
That Level 0 boy stood on the other side of the dust of white snow and black dirt.
Of course, he was not unscathed.
The boy’s clothes were covered in dirt, red blood was leaking from his temple, and his
center of gravity seemed to be tilted to the side.
Even so, the boy stood.
He stood on his two legs that would not fall.
