Tokyo: My Superpower Refreshes Every Week-Chapter 798 - 793: The Truth That Can Never Be Reached (Part 2)
"Tsk."
Emily wasn't too surprised by the result; just as she couldn't step out the door, she couldn't enter the restroom either.
Invisibly, an unseen force was hindering her, making the restroom seem so close, yet she couldn't enter it no matter what.
"Damn it, what kind of ability is this?" 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮
Thinking this, Emily instinctively pressed her short legs together, feeling that perhaps it was due to a surge of adrenaline or psychological tension that she suddenly felt the urge to use the restroom.
But when she lifted her foot forward, she reappeared in front of the door.
"Damn it!"
Could the enemy's ability really be stopping her from using the restroom?
Emily's mind was filled with sarcastic remarks; the more she couldn't go, the more she felt she needed to.
Katerina looked at her with concern in her eyes and asked, "Emily, are you alright?"
"No, I'm fine."
Emily shook her head; there was no way she could admit wanting to use the toilet—it was too embarrassing to say out loud.
But that urge wouldn't disappear just because she didn't want it to, so she could only hold onto the shield handle tightly.
Don't panic; she needed to trust her teammates.
She received the message, and Phoenix Academy Maggie, who was on duty that night, surely also received the CIA's message.
Heading over at the fastest speed.
Emily just had to hold on until they took out the monster, then she could finally reach the restroom!
She never realized that even reaching the restroom could be such a difficult task.
As for solving the issue in the bar's lobby, it wasn't impossible; it was just that Emily had a psychological barrier she couldn't overcome.
She was Russian, not Parisian!
...
Rumble~
Three helicopters swept across the star-studded night sky, strong winds blowing, and golden hair fluttering in the wind.
Phoenix Academy Maggie stood at the cabin door, looking down to see that amidst the neon-lit Kabukicho, only one area was shrouded in purple mist.
People from the Shinjuku Police Station had already moved the residents away from that building, which, if she remembered correctly, was where Emily was.
Was the monster targeting Emily?
Phoenix Academy Maggie narrowed her eyes, looking at the giant head emerging from within the mist.
It resembled an eighty-year-old man.
Filled with layers of wrinkles that could perfectly trap a person within, its eyes rolled back, its sockets full of dark purple, exhaling thick purple mist from its mouth and nose.
The exact purpose was still unclear.
"Heh, in this situation, let me handle it!"
On another helicopter, Ayatsuki Ayaka was full of excitement, eager to throw her Spear of Death that Pierces Through as a superhero.
"Don't move that weapon recklessly; we don't know if there's anything strange about the purple mist."
Phoenix Academy Maggie quickly stopped her reckless behavior, speaking sternly, "At this time, let me conduct a long-range probing attack with the Sword of Promised Victory first."
Speaking, she drew the longsword from her waist.
Hearing this, Ayatsuki Ayaka had to give up the throwing idea; she indeed worried that if her spear was thrown over and corroded by the purple mist, it would be a big loss.
"Arakawa, cover me."
Phoenix Academy Maggie internally disliked relying on this person's power, but in battle, she couldn't afford to care about desires.
Effectively utilizing resources was the top priority.
She couldn't unleash the Noble Phantasm while standing at the cabin door, risking the helicopters; she needed to be outside in the air.
"Okay."
Arakawa Reina nodded, raising her right hand, softly saying, "Thousand Transformations·Crossing Tail."
The ring glowed with a cold light, and invisible transparent threads were released instantly, weaving a soft web of silk between the three helicopters in the air.
Phoenix Academy Maggie leaped forward and landed on the silk web, as if stepping on a cloud, yet not sinking completely down.
She stood firm, raised her sword to the sky, and declared, "Sword of Promised Victory!"
Upon uttering the true name of the Noble Phantasm, golden light soared up like thousands of fireflies hovering near the lightsaber.
Each glowing dot merged, creating a beautiful scene.
It made Ayatsuki Ayaka momentarily feel that her spear didn't seem as appealing; she also wanted such a large-scale, dazzling Noble Phantasm.
Phoenix Academy Maggie focused her gaze on the monster below, gripping the Sword of Promised Victory with both hands and striking downward.
...
At this moment, the city's neon and the shimmering starlight dimmed in comparison, the golden light capturing all of Ayatsuki Ayaka's vision.
She watched the lightsaber fall into the purple mist.
Then, the light suddenly vanished.
Ayatsuki Ayaka's eyes widened, quickly looking at the helicopter cabin where Phoenix Academy Maggie was, her hands still holding the Sword of Promised Victory high.
"Eh?!"
Ayatsuki Ayaka uttered a puzzled sound, blinking and saying, "Maggie, when did you put the lightsaber away? I didn't even see it?"
Phoenix Academy Maggie's face, delicate like a porcelain doll, broke into a cold sweat, her eyes showing a hint of shock as she said, "My hands clearly didn't lift, but."
As she spoke halfway, she swung the sword downward again with both hands.
The Sword of Promised Victory once more tore through the void, landing on the purple mist.
The next second, her hands again lifted the Sword of Promised Victory high, as if edited by someone, making it appear abrupt.
"Eh, what's going on?"
Ayatsuki Ayaka's face was full of shocked expressions.
Arakawa Reina gazed at the monster immersed in the purple mist, a thoughtful look appearing on her face as she murmured, "It must be the monster's ability, allowing the attack to repeat, or perhaps nullify it?"
Phoenix Academy Maggie swung the Sword of Promised Victory downward once more, wishing to stop the repetitive swinging.
But her arms seemed out of control, leaving her with only the downward strike option.
She dared not let the helicopter people move away.
If they moved away and she continued to strike downward, she'd hit the residential buildings instead of the monster in front.
"What a tough situation, without figuring it out, we can't act recklessly either."
Arakawa Reina worried that if they acted now, they might end up like Phoenix Academy Maggie, repeating an attack or action.
But this monster's ability should have some limitation; it couldn't possibly have no weaknesses.
Perhaps they could try attacking the monster secretly without touching the mist.
As Arakawa Reina pondered solutions, Phoenix Academy Maggie already shouted, "Quick! Call Aozawa, tell him to hurry over.
Only the Will-o'-the-wisp can hypnotize the monster and make it stop emitting mist."
"Right."
Arakawa Reina was suddenly enlightened, slowly exclaiming, "Missy, you're really smart."
"Yeah, thinking of such a good method right away."
Ayatsuki Ayaka nodded in agreement.
Phoenix Academy Maggie seriously suspected that Arakawa Reina was deliberately stalling to see her continue swinging the sword here.
Ayatsuki Ayaka didn't seem to have such a deep plan.
Phoenix Academy Maggie could only urge, "Quickly make the call."
"Oh," Ayatsuki Ayaka took out her phone, dialed Aozawa's number, and said, "Hey, Aozawa, we're in trouble now, hurry to Kabukicho Ichi-chome."
"No problem, I'm on my way."
Aozawa, having already returned with time stop, confidently replied.
Phoenix Academy Maggie then shouted from the air, "Aozawa, where are you?
I'll have the helicopter come pick you up."
After Ayatsuki Ayaka relayed her message, Aozawa replied, "No need to hurry, I'll have Sister Chitose bring me over."
"Maggie, he says Sister Chitose will bring him over, and for you not to worry."
After faithfully relaying the message, Ayatsuki Ayaka told the person on the other end of the phone, "I'll hang up now."
"Okay."
Rumble!
Phoenix Academy Maggie swung her sword downward once more.
The first time Ayatsuki Ayaka watched, she was in awe; now, repeated views made it feel like she was watching a bizarre looped video.
If it were filmed, it would probably become very popular.
Looking at Phoenix Academy Maggie's cold gaze sweeping toward her, Ayatsuki Ayaka abandoned the idea of filming.
Feeling as though she had been seen through.
She smiled sheepishly.
