- She then said something, but Kamijou could not tell what it was.
- Immediately afterwards, the bunker cluster attacked Buckingham Palace.
- There was no sound.
- Kamijou’s eyes could see nothing but pure white.
- All he could sense was that his body was being thrown somewhere. The great number of
- explosives did not explode in the air or on the surface. They first dug down into the
- ground and then exploded back up from under the ground.
- He lost consciousness at least for a moment.
- He groaned a bit, moved his fingers, and then finally realized that he was still alive.
- He could tell he was coughing, but he couldn’t hear it. He tried to turn his head, but his
- body would not do what he told it to. Even so, he managed to awkwardly move his mud-
- covered arms and legs in order to slowly stand up. It was the first time he had felt that
- surprised that he possessed all his limbs.
- He looked around.
- Surprisingly, the fire and destruction had not spread into the city of London. It may
- have been due to the defensive barrier Kanzaki had put up partway through. Most of the
- two hundred explosives had been detonated early in the sky. The ones that had come
- down on top of Kamijou and the others had fallen through a gap in the barrier that had
- been sliced open by Curtana Original. The destruction caused by the ones that had made
- it through had been weakened by the defensive spells cast by the magicians.
- But...
- “Index...?”
- Kamijou ignored his own dirt covered head and looked around in shock.
- No response came.
- “Kanzaki, Itsuwa?”
- The boy’s voice echoed in the silence.
- Dirt had been torn up, buildings had collapsed, and his own footing was shaky. Standing
- in the middle of a burnt field, Kamijou somehow managed to move his trembling lips.
- “Sherry, Agnese! Oriana!! Dammit...Orsola, Lucia, Angelene! Tatemiya, Villian!! Fuck.
- Someone...anyone, please answer!!”
- A few moans came in response, but no clear voices did.
- Mostly everyone had collapsed. Some people may have been buried. That scene caused
- more intense damage to Kamijou’s heart than the shockwave did to his body. He could
- not even hazard a guess at how many levels of trump cards their opponent had.
- Kamijou’s heart simply couldn’t keep up.
