Editing Toaru Majutsu no Index:GT Volume4 Chapter4 (section)

===Part 6===

An orange fire glowed atop a building rooftop.

It burned at the end of a cigarette in the corner of a certain priest’s mouth.

“Hmph.”

Kanzaki Kaori had left this mission in his hands. She had known her defeat was imminent, but she had not even asked him to save her. Up in the air with no way to escape, she had used her seven wires to slice apart the curtain of sand.

That had informed him that the Logistic Hornet was boosting the sand magic.

But that wasn’t all.

“Yes, she left this with me.”

The 5000m Logistic Hornet used liquid nitrogen and naphtha to create temperature differences that changed the air density to remake an entire region’s weather conditions as it saw fit. A meteorological weapon that could set the wind direction and produce sandstorms and tornados was the perfect partner for Citrinitas who could dissolve and absorb anyone they covered with sand.

But.

A strategy that relied on pure quantity could be affected by an external force if it was powerful enough.

Kanzaki Kaori had in fact used her Saintly strength to tear through the sand wall so accurately designed by R&C Occultics.

Stiyl knew the numbers at work here.

He estimated them to be at Saint level.

He did not have that kind of inborn talent. He was one of the “talentless” magicians who used knowledge to make up for what he lacked in strength.

However, he could boost the range and power of his rune magic by scattering enough laminated cards around the area.

30 million people had vanished from Los Angeles, but the power was still on and all of its modern conveniences were still accessible. So he could print off as many cards as he needed. By increasing the number of cards to the point that his power was greater, he could mess with the Logistic Hornet’s weather control. Ignoring him had been a mistake.

“Sorry, Helcalia,” he murmured to himself.

That girl was not here and he doubted she would forgive him, but he still felt the need to say it.

“I’ll make up for my mistake here.”

Yes, that thing could ''only'' change the atmospheric pressure by heating or cooling the air.

So with firepower greater than the naphtha explosions, Stiyl Magnus could singlehandedly overwhelm that 5000m piece of technology!!!!!!

“Come forth, Innocentius.”

A fiery colossus rose higher than the skyscrapers.
