saves touma

Kamijou thought in his head while he watched the path of that blade that could easily
slice right through a scientific nuclear shelter or a magical cathedral.
Curtana Original was not the only threat.
Carissa was the person who had almost perfectly carried out a coup d’etat in a powerful
nation like the United Kingdom.
The second princess excelled at military matters and she probably had some knowledge
of martial arts.
“Die.”
That simple word reached Kamijou’s brain.
Immediately afterwards, a dull noise shook his brain.
Kamijou Touma’s vision grew hazy.
His feet left the ground and he lost all sense of gravity.
His breathing stopped.
And...
(I’m...alive?)
At the feeling of the clothes on his back being forcefully grabbed, Kamijou returned to
his senses.
After a bit of distance, he saw the place he had been standing in just before. Curtana
Original had merely sliced through thin air and the second princess clicked her tongue
at that result.
That had been something Kamijou Touma simply could not have pulled off on his own.
“...It looks like I finally found a good way to pay you back a bit,” said a clear female voice.
At the same time, the feeling of something grabbing his back disappeared and he was
lowered gently to the ground. Looking over, he saw that Villian had been recovered
along with him. The third princess looked up at the person who had rescued her with a
blank look on her face.
Kamijou turned around.
Standing there was...
“Kanzaki...?”
