“What are you? Why are you hidden behind the codename Dragon?”

“Do I have to explain it from there?” the blonde being said in a tone that seemed to be
saying it was surprised at how unintelligent Accelerator was. “My identity is nothing
much. I am just a mere hboieEXISTENCEab, so—”

Aiwass’s words blurred.

Accelerator frowned, but Aiwass itself seemed puzzled and brought its hand up to its
throat to check on its voice.

“...Hmm. So I cannot even express that level of meaning in this world. There are not
enough headers. This will make the explanation difficult. You do not mind if I do so in a
rather roundabout way, do you? It would be simple enough to express this directly, but
then that wgbudDESTRUCTIONwsrui will occur.”

Aiwass did not seem to be joking.

The way its voice sounded was odd. When the being’s voice blurred like that, the source
of the sound seemed to shift. That made it sound very odd. It was a bit like wearing
stereo headphones with the right and left switched.

“Are you familiar with the term Fuse Kazakiri?”

“...?”

Shiokishi had mentioned that name, but Accelerator had no idea to what it referred.

However, when Aiwass saw his face, it sighed.

“It really is a pain to have to explain everything from the very beginning. Remember
what I say and look into it on your own later. At any rate, that is a being that can be
referred to as an artificial angel. Given her properties, that is not incorrect, but that does
not actually reach what Fuse Kazakiri truly is. She is actually something like a
production line used to form me, Aiwass.”

Accelerator had not understood most of what the being said, but the word “angel” stuck
with him.

When Kihara Amata had injected Last Order with that virus, wings of light had appeared.

Apparently, the true purpose of that had been part of a plan prepared for this Aiwass.

“Let us compare it to a crystal. And a familiar substance would be...water or salt. Yes, let
us go with salt. Think of an AIM diffusion field as extremely concentrated salt water.

However, that alone will not cause crystallization. To effectively proceed, it is better to
add a foreign material to the salt water. That foreign material could be a single stick or it
could be something like small dust. It could even be an nsrioANGELgau like Fuse
Kazakiri. ...Well, the crystallization is simple, but when you want it to be a particular
shape and size, the qualities of the core must be carefully prepared.”

“...Are you saying you’re a being made based on this Fuse Kazakiri thing?”

“Technically, it is more accurate to say Fuse Kazakiri is a factory production line fine-
tuned in order to create me. I will not deny that I was born following the pattern of Fuse
Kazakiri. Although, born is not quite the right word. It would be more correct to say
uyAPPEARidvif...damn, the language cannot keep up. Rather than ‘born’, let us say
‘appeared’. That is not technically correct, but I cannot express it any better than that.”

Aiwass moved its own index finger slowly down along its chest to its abdomen.

“Aleister seems to like roundabout methods, but I am not something that can be dealt
with using clone technology.”

If that being was a mass of AIM diffusion fields, then it was not human.

And then what felt to Aiwass like a tiny crack appeared in the center of its body.

An error had occurred in the aggregation of AIM diffusion fields that controlled Aiwass’s
existence. Thinking about what could have caused it, Aiwass turned around. Aiwass
began to disintegrate starting with the ends of its golden hair, but its expression did not
change.

“You said...” came a cracking voice.

It was Accelerator’s voice, but it was no longer in the indecipherable language that
Aiwass had also been using. He was now speaking in proper human words.

“...You said that...you appeared by using...the AIM diffusion fields...throughout
Academy City... And that kid was...given a virus to create...something called
Fuse...Kazakiri...in order to control...your appearance...”

“So you have thought about it.”

Aiwass smiled. As it did, its fingertips started to lose form.

Its eyes looked down at Accelerator’s cane.

“So you took the jamming device used to cut off the signal for the remote control for
your choker and set it to the entire Misaka Network. That network guides the mass of all
of Academy City’s AIM diffusion fields. It is true that blocking the Misaka Network from
this area will locally remove the crystal’s core and return it to the original salt water.”

[...]

“Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law,” Aiwass muttered as if it were singing.

Its arms had already disintegrated up to the elbows and the pale platinum wings with a
white core were not moving as if their gears had been removed. The being’s body had
turned almost transparent and something like a triangular prism could be seen hidden
in the center of its head. The object’s surface was continually moving around making a
clicking noise like a keyboard.

Realizing that Accelerator’s gun was aimed squarely at it, Aiwass spread out its half-
gone arms and smiled as if to welcome the bullet.

“I see. Then show me what your Law is.”

A gunshot rang out.

It was followed by a sound like a crystal being shattered and the dull sound of a human
body collapsing.
