It was unclear how much time had passed.
Tsukasa, feeling a bit bored, prepared to leave the underground research facility.
He felt that living a life only for training would be too dull.
Since he had worked hard for so long, why shouldn’t he enjoy himself?
‘Open interface.’ Following Tsukasa’s thought, the system screen appeared in front of him.
[Infinite Transcendence System — Status] User: Tsukasa Gender: Male Age: 23 Race: Human Stats Constitution: 2485 (average adult male: 1) Strength: 2480 Agility: 2478 Spirit: 2670 Abilities Infinite Transcendence: (No limits.

Max Level Ryomen Sukuna Abilities (100%) Slashing Technique “Dismantle” Slashing Technique “Cleave” Reverse Cursed Technique Domain Expansion “Malevolent Shrine” Divine Flame (“Open”) Blood Manipulation Ten Shadows Technique World-Cutting Slash Ryomen Sukuna’s True Form Idle Transfiguration Weapons Cursed Tool “Kamutoke” Cursed Tool “Hiten” Inventory None Tsukasa’s current stats had reached a terrifying level of over two thousand points.
If he continued training, they would definitely keep rising, but this way of improving was just too boring.
At this moment, Tsukasa only wanted to rest for a while.
Being too hurried isn’t always a good thing; haste makes waste.
He had already entered the peak level of this world.
He was strong enough to challenge those terrifying Magic Gods.
He was certain that if he used his full power in a single strike, he could slice the very planet beneath his feet.
If he fought only with his physical body, no one in this world could match him.
However, the Magic Gods of this world were quite unreasonable.
The power they understood reached the level of concepts.
It was honestly a miracle that this tiny planet could hold so many powerful beings.
If he wanted to completely defeat a Magic God, Tsukasa would have to try and understand conceptual power himself.
Then, he could combine it with his familiar slashing techniques to create a slash that could cut through concepts.
Even though he had a talent that felt like a “cheat,” he could only continuously improve his attributes.
Understanding the higher realms of power still depended on his own ability to learn.
Or, he could find some godforsaken place, hide for a few years, and practice hard.
Then he could use his overwhelming stats to crush everyone with brute force.
Thinking of this, Tsukasa’s lip twitched.
Where did this “cowardly” idea come from?
It didn’t fit his personality at all, so he quickly dismissed it.
While lost in thought, Tsukasa deactivated Chimera Shadow Garden, which had been open for an unknown amount of time.
As soon as the domain closed, a small amount of cursed energy leaked out.
It felt almost solid as it affected the surrounding space.
Even that tiny bit of leaked energy made the entire underground facility begin to shake.
The walls slowly started to crack, and the cracks spread everywhere.
One must remember that the materials used to build this lab were top-tier.
If they hadn’t been, Tsukasa might have buried himself deep underground.
In the Seventh District.
Mikoto was drinking a beverage and looking at the distant scenery.
Several thugs with mocking smiles surrounded her.
“Hey, will that girl be okay?” “Anyway, let’s call the Judgment.” Two passing high school students looked worriedly at Mikoto, who was completely surrounded by the thugs.
“This city really never lets me be bored,” Mikoto sighed, looking at the thugs who were getting closer, clearly in over their heads.
Before Mikoto could do anything, the ground beneath her feet began to shake.
This made her stop and say in surprise: “An earthquake?” “Run…
run!
It’s an earthquake!” The thugs who were just surrounding Mikoto were terrified by the movement.
They scattered and ran away, leaving a helpless Mikoto behind.
The earthquake lasted for several minutes before it slowly stopped.
Inside the building without windows, Aleister opened his closed eyes.
“He has become stronger.” ‘That’s right.
The power of that person from another world is no longer something that can be easily handled.’ Aiwass’s flat voice seemed to contain a bit of amusement—he was definitely an angel who enjoyed the drama.
“The plan can be adjusted accordingly.” These words showed that Aleister recognized Tsukasa’s strength.
If it didn’t affect the plan too much, he could make some small compromises.
‘Do you regret not getting rid of him back then?’ Aiwass asked.
“No.
On the contrary, if used well, he can become the best helper,” Aleister answered without any emotion.
In his view, everything in the world could be seen as a chess piece.
Even he himself could be a piece to be sacrificed.
To achieve his goal, his terrifying obsession was enough to make even a Magic God feel fear.
“Ha~” Tsukasa gave a long stretch and arrived at the surface.
Since he hadn’t eaten in a long time, he was ready to find some food.
“Hmm?
Why are there so many kids?” Tsukasa looked at a group of children surrounding a food truck.
It was selling crepes.
“Break time is one hour.
Everyone, please don’t go too far.” Looking at the young lady dressed as a tour guide, Tsukasa understood.
These children were likely visiting Academy City.
Their parents were probably using this chance to see if they should send their children to study in this city.
“Crepes?
That works.” Seeing that there was only one crepe truck around, Tsukasa joined the long line.
“It looks like we didn’t pick the best time.” “There are so many people~” A familiar voice came from behind him.
He looked back instinctively.
The first thing he saw was a ring of flowers—a feature as obvious as a landmark.
It was Uiharu.
Along with her were three others: Saten, Mikoto, and Kuroko.
They made up the famous four-girl group.
Looking at them, this seemed to be their first meeting.
No wonder this place looked familiar; it was the very beginning of the “A Certain Scientific Railgun” story.
“Eh?
Tsukasa!?” Seeing the man in front of her turn around, Uiharu cried out in surprise at the familiar face.
“Tsukasa!?” When Mikoto saw Tsukasa, she shouted with joy.
Seeing Mikoto so excited, Kuroko immediately froze.
She slumped down onto her hands and knees, her head lowered in total defeat.
Saten didn’t know how to react.
“Oh, it’s been a while.
How long has it been exactly?” Tsukasa asked a strange question, which made Mikoto blink in confusion.
“Huh?
It’s been about three weeks.
What kind of weird question is that,?” Tsukasa flicked his index finger against Mikoto’s forehead.
The girl let out a cry of pain.
She covered her forehead, her face turning red as she glared at Tsukasa.
Seeing this “flirting” behavior, Kuroko felt like she was watching the end of the world.
She began banging her own head against the ground, making Saten and Uiharu break into a cold sweat.
They quickly pulled Kuroko up to stop her from hurting herself.
