On Misaka Mikoto's situation, Rei Ao already had a clue. The upper echelons of Academy City weren't sothing one psychic girl could handle alone. Forget Aleister—just Accelerator alone was far beyond what she could manage.
Originally, Rei Ao himself wouldn't have been able to completely solve Mikoto's world's problems either. But now things were different.
[Na]: Rei Ao
[Level]: 80
[Abilities]: "Freeze", "Self", "True Sight", "Transform", "Blessing", "True Devil Form", "Divine Soul", "Spirit King", "One True God", "Cognitive Disappearance", "Sword Aura Mastery", "Crimson Dragon God", "Gene Code", "Tenfold Incarnation", "Authority of Storms", "Ti & Causality Interference"

[Description]: To you, even a galaxy is but a breath away from annihilation.
At Level 80, taking on a Magic God (from Mikoto's world) was still a fantasy. But since he had the concept of "True Devil Form," maybe—just maybe—he had a shot at going toe-to-toe with a Magic God.
After all, "Magic God" inherently carries the word "Magic." Of course, the details would depend on actual circumstances.
There was no guarantee that True Devil Form would grant him a "Magic God–level" position in Mikoto's world without testing it out first.
Everything would beco clearer only when he was physically there.
Mikoto, for her part, had gone silent, and the chat was in an awkward lull. Nobody wanted to poke at her sore spot. Clueless about the context, Ai Hayasaka also kept quiet, though she sensed that this "Mikoto Misaka" from the group was facing so serious trouble. However, Ai had no idea she would soon face problems of her own.
Kaguya Shinomiya: "Ai…are you there?"
Ai Hayasaka received a private ssage from her Lady, Kaguya. She probably was watching the broadcast as well.
Ai Hayasaka: "Yes, Milady. What is it?"
Kaguya Shinomiya: "Ai…you… Are you really a spy sent by my brother to watch ?"
"What?!!!"
Ai Hayasaka's heart and mind trembled. She found out? When did this happen?
Kaguya Shinomiya: "I…I saw it in the chat room's history. Ai, I want you to tell …"
Apparently, Kaguya—out of curiosity—had scrolled through older ssages and co across those where Ai had ntioned reporting on Kaguya's situation to her older brother, Shinomiya Oko. In that instant, Kaguya felt as if the sky had fallen. After wrestling with it for a long ti, she decided to confront Ai.
"…"
Ai Hayasaka recalled how, in the chat, she'd indeed spoken too frankly. She had completely forgotten that new mbers can see older ssages. And now there was no way to lie her way out.
"Huu…"
She took a deep breath. In so sense, she felt relief—she decided to co clean.
Ai Hayasaka: "Milady, I'm sorry, everything I said is true."
Ai Hayasaka: "I was sent by Shinomiya Oko to monitor you."
Ai Hayasaka: "Now that you know, I'll leave. Of course… if you want to punish , I'll accept it."
Kaguya Shinomiya: "Ai! What are you saying!"
Kaguya Shinomiya: "There's no way I'd 'punish' you. I know you feel guilty, but this isn't your fault."
Kaguya Shinomiya: "The Hayasaka family has always been a Shinomiya branch family; I get that."
Kaguya Shinomiya: "I just want to know…Ai, are we real friends or not?"
Ai Hayasaka: "…"
Ai Hayasaka: "Of course. Precisely because of that, I can't forgive myself…"
Kaguya Shinomiya: "Then that's enough."
Kaguya Shinomiya: "I'm not blaming you, and I'll find a way to change this situation, too!"
Ai Hayasaka: "Milady…"
Reading those words filled Ai with a warm feeling. But…she knew that Lady Kaguya alone might not be able to stand up to her brother.
If she's going to try, then…
"I have to do sothing too," Ai thought, eyes falling on the "Trade" feature—the only trump card she possessed.
…
anwhile, on the battlefield, Tatsumaki and Fubuki's fight had grown even fiercer. Tatsumaki was finally taking her sister seriously. A question lingered in her mind: How did Fubuki suddenly beco so strong?
Rei Ao, who had granted Fubuki that power, wasn't paying close attention to their heated battle. Instead, he was occupied with sothing else.
Having beco this world's One True God, removing certain unstable elents of this world was a necessity—particularly the monsters. The way monsters ford here served no purpose in his eyes.
…
Monster Association
After seeing that bizarre and "unknown" future, Psykos had been on edge the whole ti. She couldn't figure out what had happened. The future she had deed certain—humanity's downfall—why had it shifted?
"What on earth changed?"
"Could it be that the Hero Association is up to sothing?"
She kept guessing, even thinking of dispatching monsters to the surface to investigate. But then she froze. Her Third Eye abruptly activated again, showing her another new future.
"The monsters…will be destroyed…"
"???"
Psykos was dumbfounded. How could the monsters suddenly be wiped out? The Monster Empire was supposed to be the real future! She began wondering if the Third Eye's power was malfunctioning.
"Huh… Maybe I've been underground too long. I need to step outside."
She left her room, intending to head up to the surface—but sothing felt off. Silence. Absolute silence. You could hear a pin drop. In the Monster Association—where constant roars and howls should echo—everything was eerily calm, which was definitely not normal.
With a frown, she headed toward the main hall. As she arrived, her face went blank with shock. There, she saw the Monster King, Orochi, slowly turning to ash. Glancing around, she noticed piles of ash everywhere. Judging by Orochi's condition, those must be what remained of the other monsters as well.
Recalling her vision, Psykos murmured in a daze:
"The monsters… really are being destroyed…"
