A wild update appears!
So, we got an update in the novels today, and Amane's crazy hax was explained in details:
(tl;dr : Amane is "Super Shenlong: Psycho Shota Edition")
"No, you don't actually foretell the future. The order of things is reversed here."
"..."
At these words, the smile that Amane usually had plastered on his face dissipated, a shadow falling over it.
"Wait, Ikki." Alice cut in. "What do you mean by 'reversed'?"
"I should have realized this when he defeated Vice President Utakata. The Vice Pres' ability, Fifty-Fifty, manipulates probability such that he can twist a result that had already been decided. Since the manipulation is limited to what he can achieve with his own abilities, it lacks offensive power, but he should have been nigh invincible as long as he focused on defense. But he lost. He lost to Amane. Someone who lacks any martial ability at all, possessing only Future Sight. Do you think this is possible?"
"That's…"
"Impossible. Utterly impossible. If we assume it were possible, then the only way is to use a probability manipulation technique strong enough to force certainty onto Fifty-Fifty. For example...an ability that can change probability according to your wishes."
"...!"
"Like this, all can be explained. In other words, Amane's 'future sight' is not in fact a foretelling of the future. The truth behind the criminal, Alice's betrayal, and now the collapse of Yakushi-san's patients...these are all 'futures' that he simply created. Am I wrong, Amane?"
Having said his piece, Ikki leveled his gaze at Amane, who had not said a word since earlier, merely looking at Ikki in silence.
"...Haa."
He sighed, shoulders drooping, and then flashed a resigned smile.
"As expected of Ikki-kun, I guess. You covered everything that I could say. I was going to reveal it to you together with the my penance, but you're too good. My poor subterfuge was nothing before the demonic mirror of the Crownless Sword King."
But, that's actually not how it works:
"It is as you said, but I would like to make a correction. Yes, my ability is indeed not 'Future Sight', but I do not wield some god-like ability as Ikki says. You know...I only make wishes."
"Wishes?"
"Yes, just wishes. I cannot change every little thing about fate. I only wished to have 'a dramatic first meeting with Ikki-kun', for 'the assault on Hagun to go off without a hitch', or 'it would be troublesome to have to fight'. Just that. And when I do so, everything will change such that it will eventually go as I wish, but without my knowledge. That's the true form of my ability Bad Luck - they call it Nameless Glory."
More details:
"So, what," Shizuku asked, "could you call the moon to crash down onto the earth if you wished for it?"
Amane cocked an eyebrow in displeasure.
"Scary- I would never wish for that to happen; wouldn't it be terrible if that were to come true? After all, there has never been a single wish of mine up till now that has not come to be."
[...]
"That's absolutely correct. Just that it takes a roundabout route to fulfilling my wish, and that the method by which it fulfills it something unknown to me," he said, palms pressed together. "So really, I didn't mean to or predict that I would endanger the lives of your patients. Sorry about that."
[...]
"So what if I just killed you here and now, and return that evil fate to normal?"
Her tone was even, but the anger roiling forth from her eyes said that all she wanted to do was to attack Amane right there and then.
But he merely shrugged, unfazed by the pressure she exuded.
"Of course my death would nullify the effects of my ability, but I wouldn't recommend it. After all, if that were to happen, I would wish to not die. From my experience, there are a lot of ways that this could make you not fight me. For example, if an earthquake were to strike this place that is all but filled to the brim with people, and there were a great many casualties, you wouldn't be able to spare the time to fight me, no?"
"Can you really do that?"
"Well, I'd rather not of course. But if it comes down to it, I'm not taking responsibility, so I'd rather you not push it…"
So..... Rakudai just got a whole lot of hax, i guess.
