Accelerator’s vector reflection and Mugino Shizuri’s massive beams of light were both
tearing away at his body. But something pure white was continually spreading across the
walls and ceiling. Kakine felt no fear over being destroyed. He was definitively missing
that instinct that any life form should have.

“And I have nothing to worry about once it is just the #4 left. I don’t know how much
she has grown, but the basic difference in power is just too great. No matter what she
has overcome, she cannot defeat me.”

That comment led to Kakine’s head being annihilated, but the rest of the figure simply
ignored gravity and “fell” into the puddle on the wall. A new Kakine Teitoku floated up
in a different spot.

“This is a difference in the freedom our powers give us. And that difference is
insurmountable for you. I need not even do anything. I do not simply have an infinite
supply of Dark Matter. My inspiration also knows no bounds. No matter how many
cards you gather in your hand, I can push it back with brute force as numbers means
nothing to me. ...Nothing you do will ever even reach me. To reach me, you first need to
climb over the wall of infinity that continues on eternally.”

It was like continuing to do something that did not add up.

It was like being ordered to empty a swimming pool using a bucket while the water was
constantly being filled by a waterfall.

“Choose.” Academy City’s #2’s lips moved. “Will you slowly dry up over a long period of
time or will you die in a single painless instant?”

Countless spears burst out and rushed toward Accelerator and Mugino Shizuri.
