"Kira, power is just power. No matter whether it is good or bad, the key lies in the belief of the person who possesses it. Kira didn't like the feeling of being helpless when she wanted to protect him, right? This is my last gift to Kira. You must protect this power well and use it in the right way. You must…"
"Lux!" Kira suddenly opened her eyes and shouted in pain. She had been having the same dream every night for countless times. In her dream, Lux's sweet smile when she entrusted this power to her, as well as the scene of Lux and everyone being killed by the person who stole this power, kept appearing in Kira's eyes.
"Lux, how is this possible? This kind of power would only bring destruction and misfortune! If he could really protect it, if he could really do it? Why can't I protect you and everyone else!”Kira looked at the crystal pendant on her chest with a pained expression.
This crystal pendant was something Lux had obtained by chance. It was also because of this crystal that the world he was in, all his friends and family, everything he cherished…were all mercilessly destroyed…
"Where's the great power? It's just a huge burden to me now.”Forcing herself to calm down, Kira regained her expressionless face. Ever since everyone died, Kira had sealed her heart and became indifferent to everything.
"Tsk, let's go out and relax. The weather is really unpleasant. Let's go buy some drinks.”Forcefully suppressing the sorrow and pain in her heart, Kira once again found an excuse to escape. She changed her clothes and left the student dormitory.
……
"As expected, drinking iced drinks in this weather is the best choice!”In front of a vending machine in School District 7, Kira looked at the iced black tea in her hand and said expressionlessly.
It was July, the hottest month of the year. Even the city of the school, which was 30 years more technologically advanced than the outside world, could not completely withstand this hot summer!
"The black tea looks good, but why does it feel like this?”As if guided by fate, a light suddenly flashed in Kira's mind. Led by a strange feeling, Kira turned around and looked behind her.
What greeted Kira's eyes was a girl with shoulder-length brown hair, who was standing under the tree with her back facing him. She was wearing a school uniform and strange goggles. The girl looked up at the tree as if she needed help.
"You…what's wrong?" Kira, who was guided by a strange feeling, walked behind the girl and asked expressionlessly as she looked at the girl's back.
"Meow." The girl turned around and replied expressionlessly.
"…Meow? What do you mean?" Hearing the girl's strange answer, Kira became even more curious, and the strange feeling in her heart became even stronger.
" There's a creature that's meowing like this. It's trapped up there. Do Misaka explained. The girl said in a strange tone with an expressionless face as she pointed at the tree.
"Don't you know that it's a cat? It was only so high, how could it be dangerous?”Following the direction that the girl was pointing at, Kira finally saw the " creature " that the girl was talking about…
"So this creature is called a cat. But, do you mean to just watch this creature called a cat face the danger of being injured or even stopping its life because of injury and turn a blind eye? Such a cute life, isn't it exactly what we have to protect! Do Misaka asked." The girl seemed excited, but she was still expressionless.
The girl's words stunned Kira." Use this power in the right way... work hard to protect the people Kira cherishes..." Kira, who was already extremely confused, seemed to have returned to the time when Lux entrusted her power to him.
Kira scratched her head in pain. He didn't want to kill anymore! He wanted to live a peaceful life with everyone! But…what I did before, saying that I wanted to end the war, saying that I wanted to protect the world…I just wanted to live peacefully with the people I love! For the sake of saving the world, I've already lost everything. For the sake of saving the world, I've already lost everything. For the sake of saving the world, I've become a walking corpse…I don't want to…"
Looking at Kira, who was suddenly immersed in her memories and whose face was extremely distorted due to pain, the girl seemed to be at a loss. However, she quickly reacted and hugged Kira gently." It's okay. Calm down... Do Misaka tried his best to comfort her."
Smelling the girl's faint body fragrance and listening to her strange comforting words, Kira seemed to have returned to Lux's embrace when she was frustrated. Slowly, in Kira's eyes, the girl's smile overlapped with Lux's.
" Lux..." Kira looked at the girl in front of her with a confused look.
"Lux? Do Misaka voiced out his doubts.”The girl asked curiously, but she was immediately interrupted by Kira's actions.
" Ugh…" The girl who was forcefully kissed by Kira struggled in a panic, and her cheeks were slightly flushed.
The girl's struggle immediately woke Kira up from her daze. Kira immediately said in a panic,"I'm…I'm sorry!" I was a little distracted just now." Kira immediately let go of the girl. Looking at the reddened girl in front of her, Kira's face was full of apology.
"It's alright. Do Misaka said calmly.”The girl touched her lips that had just been forcefully kissed, as if she was reminiscing about something. A depressing atmosphere unwittingly unfolded between the two of them.
"Were we kissing just now? Do Misaka asked shyly." The girl's voice broke the strange atmosphere between the two of them.
"Kiss…kiss? You can say so!" Kira could no longer be cold to this girl. She stuttered with a slightly red face.
"Then, only a couple who are deeply in love can kiss! Do Misaka said before anyone else. Misaka was the first Misaka to have a girlfriend! Misaka thought to himself."
Kira finally calmed down when she saw the girl talking to herself. She said to the girl speechlessly," This…can't be counted, right?”
" Why not?" The girl tilted her head unhappily when she saw Kira's cautious look. That was what the learning device said. Do Misaka retorted unhappily.”
Seeing Kira's troubled expression, the girl seemed even more unhappy. She grabbed Kira's hand sign and said shockingly," Forget it, from now on, Misaka is your girlfriend. Misaka's serial number is Misaka 9982. You can call Misaka Misaka. That way, Misaka will be very happy. Please take care of him, Misaka's boyfriend whose name I don't even know." Do Misaka decided to take the initiative and make a declaration of love to the handsome man whose name he did not know.”
"What a strange way of addressing me. But you can make a declaration of love without knowing your name. There's such a strange name…Are you waiting to be ridiculed? Well, forget it. My name is Kira Yamato. Please guide me.”Kira looked at Misaka Mei, who was holding her hand tightly, with amusement. She wasn't going to run away, so why was she holding her hand so tightly…
"I'm not waiting to be ridiculed. You clearly didn't know her name before you forced a kiss on her. Do Misaka cursed in his heart.”
"..." Kira looked at Misaka-mei speechlessly. She felt like crying…
"In that case, Misaka will call you Kira from now on. Do Misaka solemnly decided on the name of her future boyfriend and was sincerely happy about this decision.”Looking at the girl in front of her, Kira was even more speechless. However, she was unexpectedly cute.
"Let's not talk about this for the time being. The creature you mentioned earlier seems to be even more dangerous.”Kira said to Misaka Mei with a smile.
"Crap…Crap, I actually forgot about the safety of such a cute creature! Do Misaka regretted his terrible memory.”
"... Actually..." Kira was about to say something when she was interrupted by Misaka Mei's voice." Hey, Kira, hurry up and lie down here." Do Misaka pointed at the grass and ordered Kira.”
"Why?" Kira looked at the grass that Misaka Mei was pointing at and had a bad feeling.
"Hurry up! Do Misaka looked at the creature called Kitten who was about to fall and urged anxiously.”
"Alright then." Kira seemed to have understood something. She resigned herself to her fate and lay down on the grass. After seeing Kira lying down, Misaka Mei stepped on Kira's body." Please move a little to the left." Do Misaka ordered."
"I knew it would be like this. Stepping on me and catching that cat…Why am I the one below!”Kira complained as she lay on the grass.
"Because you're a boy and Misaka is a girl. Do Misaka said righteously.”
At this moment, the kitten seemed to be unable to hold on any longer. It fell from the branch. Looking at the falling kitten, Misaka Mei stepped on Kira and jumped hard, catching the falling kitten with her skirt. The cat seemed to be very scared, and it jumped down from Misaka Mei's skirt and ran away.
" It hurts..." Kira said in pain as she held her chin, which had been hit by Misaka Mei's jump.
"We're finally saved! Do Misaka said gratefully."
