Spoil chapitre 46
Et donc une traduction de la part de Chaosprophet:
L'affrontement est arrivé bien plus vite que ce que je pensais. J'aurai pourtant imaginé qu'on aurait eu le droit à plus de situation assez fun à regarder en les voyant dans la même chambre, m'enfin pour l'instant ils ne connaissent pas son identité. Par contre son nom est assez perturbant .According to Manga Kansou the title page this time says "Enemy? Ally? Man? Woman? A character full of mysteries". So seems like Hood's sex really isn't supposed to be certain yet. In any case, will treat him as a male for the chapter description.
Kurou and Touta enter the room thinking it's a shared room. Hood try to pass as a normal student. Hood introduces himself as 佐々木三太 (Sasaki Santa?). Santa says he didn't know anyone else was joining the room. Touta says they should make an welcome party.
At night Santa is moving on the roof. He finds some students bulling a homeless person with magic near the river. They say they're just cleaning the trash. Santa says he will clean the trash then (mentioning the students). They attack Santa with magic but it goes through him.
The students panic that their magic apps didn't work. Santa raises his hands and make two students float and crash with each other. Santa hols two others and fly over the river and throw them there. The remaining student is surprised how Santa is able to fly without any tool.
Santa grabs the hand of that last student who uses a Flans Exarmatio that also go through Santa. The Student freaks out "You monster! Are you a real mage?!".
Santa buries the student hand on the ground "I'm not a stupid mage. Guns or magic aren't effective. I'm an immortal... 超能力者(esper?)". He tells him that if he don't take his hand from the ground soon it will fuse with it.
As Santa was about to leave he sees the collapsed homeless person and remember the students early words "garbage cleaning". He grabs the student by his hair and says "What do you think will happen if I bury your head?".
The students tells him to stop. Santa buries his head half way in and asks if he understand how weak he is. Touta appears and attacks with the gravity sword (spoiler image is here). Santa dodges while the student is released when the ground cracks.
Touta tells him to surrender but he runs away by flying. Touta also is surprised as he thought only a few people like Eva and Fate that were able to use magic to fly like that.
Ikkuu is monitoring through the security cameras and ask Kuroumaru who is near to intercept him. Kurou tries to stop Santa but he goes through Kurou. "What a troublesome opponent" says Kurou. Chapter ends.
While Santa power seems to match the power of the assassin, I'm still not fully convinced. As others mentioned, it's likely Akamatsu wouldn't reveal the assassin and make them face him that easily. Also from the spoiler text, it does seems to me like what he was doing in the end was just to give the student a big scare rather than actually trying to kill him.
Sinon on nous montre encore une fois une grosse discrimination de la part des étudiants, qui se font très vite remettre à leurs place par le nouveau personnage. Je suppose que l'arc actuel va bien affecter Touta sur la situation du monde, entre ça et ce qu'il a vu dans les bidonvilles.
