Hello all, sorry for the wait, was out of town for a while then I was busy with Heavensward. Also, writing is a lot more difficult than reading as it turns out, even more so when attempting to keep a writing as close to the canon as possible. Anyway, This turned out okay I guess but continuing it would be rather difficult. I am also thinking of writing "reports" from different organizations but I am not sure if it would be best to just add it to this fic or make another labelled "Reports on Kamijou Touma" or something along that line. I already pretty much ran through my major ideas for this point of view.

Anyway, enjoy.

Greetings fellow rumormongers, and welcome to another part of A Case Study of Kamijou Touma. This past week I've been going around compiling many of the existing rumors that have been tied to our subject. Today, I will present what findings I've been able to confirm.

The level zero with the ability to negate other esper abilities:

Last time, I interviewed a thug who attempted to rob a store and was stopped by Kamijou, and during the interview he mentioned how a fire-based esper ability was negated. Following up on this, I asked around on the streets and came across an interesting bit of information. A few months ago, the third-ranked level five, Misaka Mikoto the Railgun, was seen chasing a spiky-haired boy while firing electricity at him. Even more interesting, the boy was also noted to be both unaffected by the electricity and unharmed. I have seen the railgun at work; her power output is not something one can normally handle. This piqued my interest, and demanded more follow-up. Interestingly enough, information on this subject is both strangely public yet completely washed-out. Many people have seen this ability in action, yet when I looked into official records, they neglect to mention this. Even in the report for the robbery mentioned earlier, at no point does it mention who actually stopped them. When I asked somebody from anti-skill about this, they said they weren't allowed to talk about it. Why this is the case I do not know, but I will look into it some more at a later date. Moving back onto the topic at hand, my following research led to another absurd rumor: the level 0 that defeated the number 1 level 5.

Now, before you all dismiss this as stupid talk as I once did, let me share with you the trail of leads that led to what appears to be a witness to a different clash between Kamijou and the number 1.

During the clash that many have called World War Three, many Russian villages were displaced in order to aid in military operations. Since most of the displaced peoples were not relocated to a proper shelter, many sought refuge in the Elizalina Alliance. Due to the mass confusion involved in the war, many lost track of their friends or families, and many forums were set up on the internet to aid people in finding others and allow the people to communicate. Among one of these websites an acquaintance of mine fluent in the local languages came across a video.

The video will be posted in the source link dump for others to see, but from what I and the others I have shown it to could tell; the video depicts a battle; a battle between the number 1 and Kamijou.

I asked my acquaintance to translate the witness statements on the same site, and they are not necessarily accurate, but they accurately describe the features of both Kamijou and the Number 1. Now I can't help but ask, if Kamijou could hold off Accelerator once, could it be possible that he has done so before? Honestly, it is hard to tell. The fight in that video is so extreme that I seriously can't believe that a human could survive that even with the ability to negate abilities. Can he block waves of rock and debris? Is he being augmented by some sort of personal armor or perhaps another strange ability like the Number 7? I do not know. As I delve deeper into the story I'm honestly not sure if I can even believe my own sources.

Maybe I just don't want to believe. Accelerator is well known as a monster with power far beyond the reach of humanity. Just what kind of monster would it take to defeat such a being? What would happen if that being took a turn towards the wrong path?

I don't know. Honestly, I just might stop doing this section. The more I learn the scarier this story becomes. Especially with the recent events surrounding the supposed leader of the terrorist group Gremlin. Again I can't help but ask, just what kind of monster could shoulder all of the enmity of the world, clash with their best, and come out victorious?

My dear readers, Kamijou is well known as a hero and a nice person. I have yet to meet him but I hold little reason to believe otherwise. However, what is it that makes such a powerful person toil for what solely appears to be the benefit of others? What goes on in the mind of Kamijou himself? Readers, I ask for some consideration and caution for this person, he currently is a good person, but I can't help but feel he may not always stay that way. The world has already gone against him once, I simply hope it will not do so again.
