A Certain Magical Index Ss Vol 2 Light Novel

A certain unlikely hero... It’s another exciting, messy time in Academy City as Uiharu repels a massive hacking attack on the data banks. Elsewhere, Hamazura, Hanzou, and Komaba speed away from the scene of their most recent crime, only to quickly regret their choices after one cop makes it her life’s mission to catch them—no matter the cost in property damage. Meanwhile, in the dark underbelly of the vaunted scientific city, Hanzou must come to terms with his dark lineage or face the consequences. And in that same shadowy world, several Misaka Sisters have gathered for their next mission to…look up their horoscopes?

A certain unlikely hero... In Academy City, where superhuman abilities are scientific reality, Touma Kamijou is trying to reconstruct a life for himself, but that's easier said than done with a girl by his side with the arcane knowledge of 103,000 grimoires rattling around in her brain... Now seemingly inextricably caught up in a world where magic is a reality, Kamijou learns that a certain shrine maiden is being held captive in one of Academy City's cram schools. Can Touma ally himself with a sorcerer who has on more than one occasion tried to do him in? The only thing he knows for sure is that he really does have rotten luck...

A certain unlikely hero...Only Komoe's class would let a regular conversation spiral out of control into a grand-scale hot pot party. It's an open question whether her students are a blessing or a curse. Meanwhile in London, the English Puritan Church's facilities should generally be a place of prayer and quiet contemplation...So who's going to take responsibility for the chaos unfolding in the sisters' dorms?! Back in Academy City, a certain railgun's mother has suddenly popped in for a visit, which is more than enough to make even a Level Five esper panic!

"After bringing an end to World War III, Touma Kamijou disappears from the world. Both sides--magic and science--take the time to rest and regroup. While Accelerator spends his days with Last Order and Misaka Worst, Shiage Hamazura uses the secrets he gained in Russia as a bargaining chip and returns to Academy City to reform Team ITEM. It seems like peace is here at last. That is, until a new group called the Freshmen arrive."--

Touma Kamijou's life is one of perpetual misfortune, which is why no one is more surprised by his sudden stroke of luck than Touma himself! Having won a trip for two to Venice, the City of Water, Touma and Index are excited for a European excursion. But the Italian peninsula is the home of the Roman Orthodox Church, and when old friends and foes alike show up, Touma's hopes for a relaxing getaway might just get washed away!

Mikoto Misaka, the third most powerful Level 5 psychic in Academy City, has stumbled upon a secret. Along with her best friend Shirai and other members of the student-run law enforcement agency known as Judgement, Misaka has discovered the existence of "Level Upper"--a mysterious tool that grants or enhances psychic abilities. Now Misaka and her friends must figure out who's behind Level Upper and how to defuse it before it claims even more unsuspecting victims!

Showdown in Castle Town! Having successfully averted the airship attack, Satou and company arrive safely in the royal capital. There, they are reunited with Nana’s “sisters”—Numbers 1 through 8—and give them the gift of a lifetime. But as is tradition with every trip to the capital, Satou must rub elbows with the aristocracy before he can enjoy his sightseeing. He even receives a surprise visit or two, including a summons from Sir Juleburg of the Eight Swordsman of Shiga! Because no leisurely trip would be complete without a friendly duel…

Index faces the biggest threat to her life thus far: the assassin Kanzaki Kaori--and Touma's right hand is useless against her! When Kaori reveals the truth behind Index's very existence, Touma realizes just how bad his unlucky streak has gotten...
