Lightning

Originally

I would've loved to have seen it. The new world of humanity, guided by many different wisdoms.

This new glimmer of land in the 21st century, the dazzling new electrical civilization that I desired.

When I was summoned, I was given much knowledge, including knowledge of the 21st century!

Yes, I was overjoyed! Overjoyed to see this shining new world!

But I was sorrowed! I found the world had been scorched clean

Um... I'm sorry, Mr. Tesla. Is this going to go on for a while?

Where is the electricity? Where is the lightning of Zeus, the power I gave humanity?!

Ah, the closest civilization remaining as a Singularity to the 21st century is... I can't even believe this...

It's the 19th century that I know so well!

Furthermore, it's London!

To think that it was that wicked summoning which led me to this location and era in an attempt to destroy it!

Looks like he's still going. Um, Mister, um... Can I say something?

Fou, fou...

Is this my punishment? Oh god

No, lightning which flashes at the end of the world! Is this a new trial you have given me?

Oh lightning! Oh thunder! Oh great Benjamin Franklin, experimenter of lightning!

Hmm?

No. If you're going to call me by a nickname, yes, call me Doctor Lightning.

Doctor Lightning... Doctor Lightning...

T-That's... So cool! S-Somehow, that makes my heart race! Doctor Lightning!

Dr. Roman!?

？！

Hmm. Of course, I'm grateful to you all, Master.

You're busy saving the world, and yet you're taking the time to accompany me on my walk.

I am truly grateful, and I must respond in kind.

I almost aided in the incineration of this world, but I will atone for my sin. Just leave it to me.

Huh? Hmm?

Mr. Nikola Tesla, is there a reason we're here? The era is already restoring itself.

(Earlier, well, I think he was just saying he wanted to visit the era closest to modern times...)

Of course.

Do you remember what this place is, Master?

？！

Yes, Senpai. We're presently near the British Museum at the former entrance to the Mage's Association.

I'm going to save the world while I'm on my walk.

I am a Heroic Spirit of the Star, paving the way to a new era. My role is to do what the gods once did.

Hmph, that's a pretty bold statement. It's true that Nikola Tesla is a powerful Heroic Spirit...

...and a rare hero with the Star Attribute. He's even got the powerful skill "Pioneer of the Stars."

But what does he mean? Saving the world?

The finishing touches. This era has been restored

But something small remains. If we ignore it, it could grow into great disaster.

There's still something in this era?

Watch. It'll arrive soon.

A magical energy signal!?

It's true! Ah, he was faster at finding it than me again! Um, something's pouring in from the British Museum ruins!

This is an autonomous grimoire out of control! How? The Demonic Fog is gone!

An evil is awakening in the gap of the era as it is restored. That's all.

What is that?!

No time to talk! Senpai, incoming enemy!

？！

Roger, Master! Moving to eliminate enemy!

Enemies destroyed. Battle complete

...Ugh! There's still more!

Lightning flash!

Letting your guard down means death. Remember that.

That grimoire contains a great spell equal to the Presence Concealment skill.

Thank you, Mister. ...I'll be more careful in the future.

Catch your breath. The big one is coming.

He noticed it before me again He's right! A huge magical energy response is incoming!

...I can feel it too. A huge collection of magical energy, similar to a dragon!

GAAAAAH!

T-That response! Is that a real demon or something!?

Hahahaha! No problem at all!

Mysteries of the old world! Hahaha! No matter how vast, strong, or mighty you may be!

I am here! Pioneer of a new world, my wisdom guiding the myths of humanity!

In other words! Human Mythology, Lightning and Thunder Descend!

T-The magical energy response... has completely...vanished...

We beat it. Yup. Humans, I mean Heroic Spirits, can do anything if they try.

My observation records here can't tell for sure, but if that was a True Demon...

...No, nope. Let's not say it! Done talking about this!

A-Anyway! Even if we'd ignored it, maybe the era would've finished repairing first and we'd have been fine.

But we removed a dangerous possibility from the equation. Let's just be happy.

Yes. I agree, Senpai.

Hahaha. Of course. It's the source of human mythology, one that shall create a new era.

？！

All right, I suppose that's enough for our walk.

Next, hmm I think I need to do more field work with this Rayshift.

What? You're doing more!? N-No more demons, please!

Foufou, Foou!
