In a world ravaged by spacequakes, Accelerator, the unparalleled esper, sacrifices his power to protect Last Order. Unexpectedly, he is pulled into this new world with new rules, where spacequakes wreak havoc unpredictably. Now, the world's mightie...
As the employee handed them their menus, the boy sat across from Accelerator and began perusing the options.
Accelerator wanted to milk him dry.
in his attempt to push the boy away, decided to take advantage of the situation and squeeze him for money. The idea was to intimidate him enough to make him think twice about getting involved any further.
Scanning the menu, Accelerator deliberately chose the most expensive items. They both made their selections and informed the waitress of their choices.
They exchanged glances, waiting for one of them to break the silence. It was Shido Itsuka, the high schooler, who finally spoke up.
"I'm Shido Itsuka. What's your name?" he asked, his smile still gentle. It seemed he had conveniently forgotten that Accelerator had previously aimed a gun at him, with clear intent to harm, due to his incessant pestering.
Accelerator remained silent, staring at Shido with irritation brewing deep within his soul. He studied the boy, questioning whether he was incredibly naive or if there was something more to his behavior.
Shido chuckled awkwardly in response to Accelerator's lack of reply and intense gaze.
"It's okay. Why don't you tell me a bit about yourself?" Shido politely suggested, although his expression hinted at a trace of bitterness and arrogance, with his eyebrows trembling slightly.
Once again, Accelerator offered no response, continuing to analyze Shido with a bored expression. He found himself growing increasingly skeptical of the boy's intentions and wondered if there was a hidden agenda behind his seemingly friendly demeanor.
Without a word, Accelerator stood up and made his way towards the restroom.
"Wait, why is she heading to the men's room? Must be my imagination," Shido commented, slightly perplexed by the unusual behavior.
Inside the restroom, Accelerator gazed at his reflection in the mirror, contemplating the strange encounter.
"Something doesn't sit right. It feels like he's trying to manipulate me, attempting to catch me off guard with his overly friendly attitude," Accelerator thought to himself as he washed his hands.
After returning from the restroom, Accelerator took his seat again. The two of them continued to observe each other, a mix of boredom and caution on Accelerator's side, and a sense of awkward composure with a hint of anxiety on Shido's.
Their exchange was interrupted as the waitress arrived with their food. Accelerator's order consisted of a porterhouse steak topped with butter, accompanied by vegetables.
