The incident with the Apostle's Cross is over just like that, and it didn't even wait until evening before Lidvia disappeared.
However, during the Daihasei Festival, things were not so easily resolved. Asahi had been consistently focusing on another person, and that person was naturally Kihara Gensei. Anything related to the name Kihara was hardly ever associated with anything good.
As for Kihara Gensei, people often say a tiger won't eat its cubs, but he was different. He could be described as someone who had lost all humanity.
And this time's event was closely related to Mikoto and Misaki. Of course, the current plot has already changed, so the specific details have also altered.
In the original work, Kihara Gensei played a trick to lure Mikoto and Misaki away, and then captured the Exterior.
And he acquired Misaki's ability, and also connected Mikoto to the Misaka Network, then introduced a virus, directly causing Misaka Mikoto to go berserk and reached Level 6 at one point.
Afterwards, Misaki and Touma helped Mikoto resolve this matter. Even though Dolly died, her memories were shared among her sisters at that time.
Of course, things are different now, because Misaka Sister have been taken away by Asahi, and other matters have been resolved.
So even if Kihara Gensei wants to cause trouble, there's nothing he can do. Kihara Gensei's idea is to create a Level 6 Esper, with Mikoto as the material. But now, the crucial point is that the Misaka Network is gone, so how can he do things?
But Asahi still came to Edolas and brought the resurrected Dolly to the Academy City. After all, there is another person who needs to be dealt with later, which is Kouzaku Mitori.
This girl and Dolly are originally good friends. At that time, she's Dolly's only friend, and Dolly believed that when Mitori saw that she was an artificial being, she rejected her as a monster, so she left.
However, what she didn't know was that Mitori was trying to help her. As a result, she got captured, and later, when she sought revenge on the Board of Directors, she was also imprisoned.
Later on, she was rescued by Kihara Gensei, and then he gave her some wrong information, which caused a series of things to happen. This person is honest, sentimental and righteous, so Asahi naturally wouldn't let her be deceived by that Kihara Gensei.
So he just brought Dolly to the Academy City and met with Misaki.
Asahi discovered that Kihara Gensei really just can't stay quiet at all. He obviously didn't have the Misaka Network, but he still plans to cause trouble. It's unclear whether it's due to his head or the inertia of the plot.
"Dolly! Why are you here?"
After seeing Dolly, Misaki was very delighted, but quickly glanced at Asahi with doubts.
"I brought Towa here to see Kouzaku Mitori. Here's what happened …"
After that, Asahi explained everything to the two of them. At this moment, Misaki also understood that Mitori hadn't abandoned Dolly, he had stood up for her and got captured because of the trouble she caused.
"Kihara Gensei, that old fossil is really despicable, and he even set his sights on my Exterior!"
Misaki is very speechless, and she felt that old man is really asking for trouble. The current her is not the same as the original work, so it is obviously impossible for Kihara Gensei to continue like this.
"That old man is indeed deserving of death, just leave him to me. You can take Dolly and go find Kouzaku Mitori. I'll deal with the trouble caused by Kihara Gensei. That guy should have died a long time ago!"
Asahi said. Keeping such a person alive is pointless, so it is better for him to die early. Moreover, Aleister wouldn't care much about a Kihara Gensei. Although these scientists are formidable, they are not essential to Aleister.
Since they've already reached this point, there's nothing more to say. And to be honest, the Kihara Family is truly a sinful one.
After understanding the situation, Misaki left with Dolly to find Mitori. For the girl who had been deceived and lost her bearings, it was easy to bring her back. Just let Dolly say a few words, and it would be settled.
As for Kihara Gensei, he's still causing trouble with a group of people at this moment. They have prepared everything, and because there is no bait, they can only make do with it. While Misaki is away, they plan to directly attack the Exterior.
In this way, they can also gain Misaki's ability. As for what to do afterward, Asahi is somewhat speechless to be honest. This old man clearly hadn't thought through his plans. As a result, things started getting chaotic inexplicably.
Without much thought about it, Asahi directly blocked the entrance to the Exterior. Kihara Gensei immediately launched an attack with the people he brought, but anyone who charged at the entrance was immediately dealt with.
After fighting for a while, Kihara Gensei finally realized something was wrong. He led the remaining people inside and found that those he had sent in earlier were all lying dead. Additionally, there stood Asahi, nonchalantly in place.
"Old man, attacking someone else's territory while their owner is away is not a good habit!"
Asahi looked at Kihara Gensei in front of him and said.
"To think she even left a backup plan. Get him!"
Regarding Asahi's words, Kihara Gensei paid little attention and directly ordered his people to attack. Unfortunately, his subordinates were equipped only with conventional weapons and Esper abilities, which, in front of Asahi, were like child's playthings and had no value to showcase.
In just an instant, all the people Kihara Gensei brought with him fell, their necks cleanly severed. Only Kihara Gensei remained standing, looking somewhat bewildered.
"You… Who are you?"
Kihara Gensei was frightened. He is not the other party's opponent, after all, he didn't have much combat power before he hadn't acquired Misaki's ability, and he was only relying on his subordinates and his scheming personality to reach this point.
"You've provoked someone you shouldn't have. Whether it's Misaki or Mikoto, they're both my good friends. Since you intend to harm them, be prepared to risk your own life."
"You've never done anything good in your entire life. People say a tiger won't eat its cubs, yet you don't even let your own granddaughter go. You're truly the lowest of the low, killing you outright would be too merciful. So you can spend the rest of your life in hell!"
Asahi had no intention of directly ending Kihara Gensei's life. As he said before, death is not necessarily the most severe punishment.
