(The magic side will remain largely unexplored for now. This segment will briefly recap Kamijou Touma and Index's key experiences during this period before transitioning directly into the Misaka Sisters Arc. Expanding further would risk narrative perspective confusion.)
【 Then the scene changed, and the video began to show Kamijou Touma's encounter with Index, who, starving, fell from the sky onto Kamijou Touma's balcony.
After rescuing Index, she explained that she was being hunted by a magic society because she had 103,000 grimoires in her mind.
However, Kamijou Touma believed in superpowers but not in magic. After all, anyone could develop superpowers using scientific methods. While telling Index he didn't believe her, he also revealed his own ability.
“I've also had a strange ability since birth. If I touch it with my right hand, as long as it's an abnormal power, whether it's an electric shock or a Railgun, even a 'miracle of God' can be nullified.”
“Pfft...” Index burst into laughter after hearing that. She had never heard of an ability in the world that could nullify a miracle of God.
Then the two began to prove themselves to each other. Index kept gesturing with a knife, wanting to see if Kamijou Touma's right hand could nullify the 'miracle' on her.
It should be noted that she was wearing the ultimate defensive barrier, the 'Walking Church,' which could completely neutralize and absorb all physical and magical attacks.
Facing Index's provocation, Kamijou Touma, with a “what if I try” mindset, placed his right hand on the 'Walking Church,' and the air instantly became quiet.
“Hehe, nothing happened.” Index smugly put her hands on her hips.
“Rip—” The next moment, with a tearing sound, the 'Walking Church,' which was said to be able to defend against all physical and magical attacks, instantly tore into pieces. Kamijou Touma was also bitten by the enraged Index, leaving tooth marks all over him. 】

“I get it. I'm going to hang my futon on the balcony now. To think you can pick up someone so easily, and they even have 103,000 grimoires in their mind... It's like picking up a whole library and bringing it home.”
“Electric shock and Railgun, even though no names were mentioned, I don't know why I feel like they're explicitly named. You agree, don't you, Misaka Mikoto?”
“Good heavens, now I finally understand how you managed to remain unharmed under Misaka Mikoto's power. This is clearly the Right Hand of the King! It can nullify any 'Divine Miracle' and 'Ability'!”
Everyone from other worlds gasped. What kind of monstrous ability was this?
Among a group of espers, there appeared someone who could nullify any superpower. Was this the legendary antidote within five steps of a deadly poison?
Although Index's 'Walking Church' instantly turned into fragments like ordinary clothes, seeing Index's proud and boastful expression, even with some exaggeration, what she said should be true.
This precisely proved that Kamijou Touma's right hand's ability was genuine... However, enduring for so long was quite resilient; after all, Misaka Mikoto's Railgun was also directly nullified.
~Bungo Stray Dogs World~
“It's really similar to my ability, 'No Longer Human'.”
Dazai Osamu expressed great interest in Kamijou Touma. It was his first time seeing someone with the same ability as him.
'No Longer Human' could nullify any other abnormal ability that touched his body. As long as someone used an ability to attack Dazai Osamu, these attacks would be nullified by his ability.
However, because his entire body would nullify abnormal abilities, other people's healing abilities would also not work on him and would be nullified by him.
“I wonder if his other body parts have the same effect besides his right hand?”
Dazai Osamu pondered to himself. After all, Kamijou Touma's ability was too similar to his. Perhaps they all had the same ability.

“Isn't this equivalent to a mobile version of 'Gae Dearg'...”
Diarmuid felt his Noble Phantasm was becoming less valuable. After all, Shirou Emiya could project it if he wanted to.
Now, this Kamijou Touma was even better; it was like having Gae Dearg equipped in his hand.
“ 103,000 grimoires...”
At this moment, all the magi of the Clock Tower stared blankly at the screen.
What kind of concept was that?!
This was no different from a little girl walking on the street with a huge gem, practically screaming, “Come and steal me.” No wonder she was pursued by the magic society; if it were them, they would have acted first.
Who wouldn't want a mobile knowledge vault?
~A Certain Magical Index World~
Leaving aside Index, who felt too embarrassed to face anyone after seeing the famous scene replayed on screen, and Kamijou Touma, who was again covered in tooth marks.
Index's appearance caused a huge stir on the magic side, and now, Academy City was also becoming lively.
“It seems you've gotten involved in some strange incidents again.”
Shokuhou Misaki rested her chin on her hand, her starry eyes looking at Kamijou Touma on the screen.
She felt it was somewhat commonplace. After all, with his personality, he probably wouldn't ignore Index.
On the other side, Misaka Mikoto, though not understanding magic, understood why Kamijou Touma could block her attacks.
“But why is such an ability rated as Level 0?!”
This was the only thing she couldn't understand.
“Hehe, sure enough, urban legends are true.”
Meanwhile, Saten Ruiko quickly flipped through her notebook and found one of them, “One of the urban legends... the man who can nullify any ability!”
Other people in Academy City were only slightly surprised by Kamijou Touma's existence and didn't pay much attention to it. His right hand could nullify abilities, so to deal with him, just break his right hand, right? It would be effortless.
Aleister, the Board Chairman, seeing the situation exposed on the screen and monitoring the reactions in Academy City, didn't say anything, or rather, everything was still within his plan.
。。。。。
【 After patching up her clothes, Index, not wanting to implicate Kamijou Touma, had a full meal and left Touma's home.
In the evening, Touma returned home after being caught and pestered by Misaka Mikoto, only to find Index lying in a pool of blood. Stiyl suddenly appeared and attacked Touma. Touma fought him and defeated Stiyl's ultimate move, Innocentius.
Touma then encountered Kanzaki Kaori's attack and learned the truth behind Stiyl and Kanzaki's pursuit of Index. However, being outmatched, he was hospitalized and remained unconscious for three days.
Touma, who woke up after three days of unconsciousness, learned that Index's memory was to be routinely deleted at midnight and immediately went to stop it. Touma broke the seal on Index's throat and exposed the Church's lie.
Then Index went berserk and entered the Automatic Record state, starting to use magic. Even a satellite (Orihime-1) in the sky was shot down by her!
Touma used Imagine Breaker to save Index, but he was also hit by the feathers from 'Dragon King's Breath' and lost his memory, being hospitalized again.
After waking up, Kamijou Touma pretended not to have lost his memory so that Index wouldn't be sad, and he managed to fool her. However, he genuinely didn't remember anything.
The reason he could fool her was that Stiyl and the others had told the doctor, Heaven Canceler, about Kamijou Touma's basic information, and the doctor relayed it to him. 】

“In the end, it was the lack of knowledge that caused trouble. This poor, ignorant girl was deceived by the Church, right? It's the first time I've seen someone whose memories need to be cleared regularly.”
“In other words, Kanzaki Kaori meant that Index's memory was full, and if it wasn't regularly cleared, her head would explode?! Are you kidding me? 15% of brain capacity is enough for a lifetime.”
Everyone finally understood why there were the Magic Side's Church and the Science Side's Academy City... See? This is the consequence of not believing in science; they were deceived and didn't even know it.
Isn't Kamijou Touma too unlucky? He was hospitalized several times in just two days, each time unconscious for more than a few days. His summer vacation was almost spent in a coma.
But isn't his personality too good? Even though he lost his memory and didn't recognize Index, he simply didn't want to make this person who might know him sad, so he pretended to know her. Where did such a good-natured person come from...
~A Certain Magical Index World~
“Touma!!”
Index bit Kamijou Touma's head in anger. He had clearly lost his memory but still pretended nothing had happened; it was truly too much.
“So you lost your memory again?!!!”
Shokuhou Misaki, on the other side, was going crazy. She had already lost her memory once due to previous events, to the point where Shokuhou Misaki herself would no longer exist in his memories.
His brain wasn't even fully recovered, and now he's lost his memory again, but his personality hasn't changed.
。。。。。
(Author note: Kamijou's amnesia is quite crucial, so I had to mention it. I can only briefly write about it like this. Next up is Railgun's main stage!! Railgun's storyline will be described in detail.)
