[Kamijou Touma struggled to stand, assessing his physical condition. Although the lightning strike released by Misaka Mikoto seemed terrifyingly high in voltage, the actual current was quite low.
For example, tasers sold on the market can reach voltages of 200,000 or even 300,000 volts, but they don't kill. Meanwhile, a household 100V outlet can be lethal.
In other words, the key isn't voltage, but current. So-called "electric power" is "voltage x current." As long as the current is low, it won't be fatal.
"In the end, you couldn't bring yourself to kill the person who shattered your last dream, right? Isn't such a person a good person?" Touma made up his mind.
Although Kamijou Touma had no memory, he recognized the girl before him as a good person, which is why he said,
"I'll fight!"
Looking at Kamijou Touma, who struggled even to stand, Mikoto's expression was one of disbelief, her voice trembling.
"Impossible. He's on completely different levels compared to me. He's a monster who faces the world's armies without flinching."
"This time, you're really will..."
At this point, Misaka Mikoto's mind flashed back to childhood memories.
⟦ My mother, who solves any problem for me, isn't here. ⟧
"I'm begging you.... I can't add someone else to the list of 10,000 people who have died because of me."
Misaka Mikoto pleaded with Kamijou Touma in a voice close to tears. He was already covered in wounds. How could he possibly win against that monster in his current condition?
⟦ Even if I pray to God, miracles won't happen. Even if I cry out, no hero will come to help me. ⟧
"I need to finish this myself. So..."
Reasons for doing this?! Kamijou Touma didn't know either. He didn't even know how strong Accelerator was, nor what he could do in his current state.
But... the power of Imagine Breaker lay dormant in his right hand, and there was a reason to clench his right fist over his chest. Not relying on others, not expecting from others.
If he could save a desperate girl with this hand, how wonderful that would be. So Touma spoke, "Tell me, Misaka! Where will that guy conduct his next 'experiment'?"
"My dream is to not lose anything, to bring everyone back with a smile, so help me achieve this dream."
"Just you wait, I'll definitely bring the Sisters back. I promise you." With that, he started running, checking his phone. It was 8:14 AM, still time before 8:30 AM.
Misaka Mikoto knelt on the ground, staring blankly at Kamijou Touma's retreating figure, watching this hero who had abandoned everything, who had come from a fairy tale to save her. ]

"No wonder he's fine. Even though she intended to kill him, Misaka Mikoto subconsciously held back. And he himself doesn't even know it."
"The attack just now did look terrifying. While not fatal, he's seriously injured, isn't he? Is he really going to fight Accelerator like this?"
"A hero who will come to save me if I cry out—Kamijou Touma! If this continues, it'll be hard for him not to marry her."
Kamijou Touma, a man who, no matter how much he was hurt, refused to see anyone suffer or get injured... a man willing to extend a helping hand to anyone, isn't he worthy of admiration?
Although there hadn't been any fights yet, everyone was filled with emotion and passion... especially when Mikoto was thinking, "Even if I cry out, no hero will come to save me," Kamijou Touma's figure directly denied that statement.
~Delicious in Dungeon World~
"So cool!"
Marcille stared blankly at Kamijou Touma's retreating figure. To girls, he looked incredibly dashing.
Before, he wouldn't have been able to throw a punch at Mikoto... but now, Kamijou Touma had a reason to clench his fist. Even someone Mikoto considered a monster, he didn't fear at all.
Though weak, to Misaka Mikoto, he was a true hero! A hero who would come to save her if she cried out.
"Are you sure you don't want to cast some healing magic before he goes? It might increase his chances a bit,"
Laios suddenly interrupted Marcille's reverie. Although time was short, he couldn't save all the Sisters.
"If Kamijou Touma goes to fight the strongest, Accelerator, while injured and dies, everything will be over. No one will be left to save the remaining Sisters."
"..."
Everyone present fell silent. Although Laios's words seemed inhumane, they had to admit he was speaking the truth.
Given Kamijou Touma's condition, resting first would be the optimal choice.
~Bleach World~
"How wonderful! His dream is to not lose anything, to bring everyone back with a smile."
Inoue Orihime's eyes sparkled as if she had seen something beautiful, then she sneakily glanced at Kurosaki Ichigo.
Kamijou Touma is truly gentle. Even she found him handsome. This is a story of salvation for a girl he's only known for two days.
Kurosaki Ichigo also nodded silently. Kamijou Touma was an ordinary yet extraordinary person. He didn't have unrealistic dreams like Emiya Shirou, nor grand ambitions of saving the world.
Kamijou Touma simply focused on what he could see and then worked to achieve it. In this video, he felt Misaka Mikoto's despair and Kamijou Touma's determination.

~In the 7th singularity, Absolute Demonic Front: Babylonia~
"He cannot stand by and watch a life before him perish. He wields his fist to save more people, not out of gentleness, nor because he isn't afraid; his legs tremble incessantly."
But... for some reason, King Gilgamesh felt an extraordinary spirit. He was the weakest Level 0, yet he could punch towards the strongest LV5 for others.
Thinking this, King Gilgamesh suddenly burst into laughter.
"Wahaha!!! Interesting... Show this king your spirit!"
This sudden, wild laughter startled everyone. Such outbursts occasionally made their hearts race.
~A Certain Magical Index World, Academy City~
"Is he really planning to go to his death?!"
Misaka Mikoto was moved, but at this moment, she was rational. Kamijou Touma doing this now would be a futile sacrifice...
"Tsk... It looks like I have to stop him..."
Misaka Mikoto gritted her teeth. She didn't know if Kamijou Touma, who now knew about the experiments, would go to Accelerator alone, as he was an idiot.
Even so, her flushed cheeks betrayed her completely. Shirai Kuroko, standing beside her, looked utterly defeated.
While they were lost in thought, Misaki Shokuhou had already used her ability to control others to investigate Kamijou Touma's movements. Perhaps she could help him in some way.
.....
["Ow..." Kamijou Touma, who was running down the street, suddenly fell. After struggling to get up, he muttered, "Damn it, I'm wasting time with this tight schedule."
He forced himself to stand, but his legs wouldn't stop shaking. "Is it numbness from the electric shock? Or... or am I afraid?!"
He recalled the bloody scenes he had seen earlier, unsure if it was fear. He reached out and punched his legs, "Thwack!! Thwack!"
"I just made a promise. This is too embarrassing!"
As he continued running towards his destination, Accelerator and the Misaka Sisters had already begun the experiment.
"Boom!!" With a loud explosion, the Misaka Sister was sent flying backward, crashing heavily onto the ground. Accelerator emerged from the shadows, bored.
"Last time I revealed my own secrets during the experiment, you guys should have made some progress."
Just as the Misaka Sisters fearfully closed her eyes, preparing for her death, she heard Accelerator's question, "Hey... what do we do with the experiment in this situation?"
The Misaka Sisters crawled on the rubble, following Accelerator's gaze to see what was ahead. "Why... are you here..."
Near the periphery of the car park—in the gaps between towering metal containers- stood a person. A normal civilian, unrelated to the experiment. Kamijou Touma stood there.
Accelerator stepped on the Misaka Sisters' head. "Don't bring irrelevant ordinary people here. Is this the standard plot where a secret is seen and then everyone involved is eliminated?"
"Stay away from her!" Kamijou Touma slowly walked over, his heart filled with rage, his face darkening. He clenched his fists, his eyes fixed on Accelerator.
"Get away from the Misaka Sister... immediately! Didn't you hear me?! Trash!!"
His roar, like a lightning strike, made Accelerator stare blankly at Touma's face, as if seeing something unbelievable.]
[ .....]
~Projection of All Worlds~
"It's normal to be afraid. As an ordinary student, after seeing such bloody scenes, it would be abnormal not to be afraid."
"I have to say, Kamijou Touma is really cool at this moment. That final 'trash' really hit the mark for me."
The viewers from other worlds did not have high hopes for this battle. Setting aside abilities, Touma's legs were already weak from Mikoto's electricity, and he had run all the way here from the iron bridge, his stamina almost completely depleted... Even before the fight began, he was significantly weakened.
Is this truly an equal battle?! Or a one-sided massacre?.
