Touma doesn't feel intimidated or pressured even when he faces a troublesome enemy like Sherry, who can control her golem Ellis to change shape into various forms. Because Touma knows that he is still stronger than Sherry and Touma himself has many ways to beat Sherry. For Touma, Sherry is just an enemy with unique abilities.
Sherry this time didn't turn the clay parts of Ellis' golem into bullets but instead into sharp spears that surrounded Touma from all directions. To ensure that Touma cannot dodge the clay spear attacks he made. Touma himself knew it would be difficult for him to avoid all the spears made by Sherry, even though he had great body speed and reflexes.
And because he realized that Imagine Breaker would have no effect on those spears. So Touma decides to reseal the Imagine Breaker and he takes out fire-generating gloves equipped with a Flame Alchemy transmutation circle. The use of Flame Alchemy in almost every battle is one of the things that has become Touma's trademark.
It's just that the Flame Alchemy that Touma uses has a big difference compared to the original one. Because even though Touma doesn't wear fire-producing gloves, Touma can still produce fire thanks to Pyrokinesis which he imitated from a Level 4 Esper.
And thanks to that Touma can create fire that is much bigger than ordinary Flame Alchemy users.
When Touma snapped the fingers of his left hand, all the clay spears surrounding him were destroyed in an instant due to the fire he created using the fire-generating gloves.
And when Touma and Sherry were shocked to see all the clay spears destroyed in an instant.
Touma immediately rushed towards Sherry and tried to hit Sherry's body. It's just that when Touma's fist touched Sherry's body, Sherry's body suddenly turned into a clay doll.
***
Touma didn't feel surprised by Sherry's body turning into clay because he had expected something like that. Touma quickly strangled Sherry's neck who appeared not far from where Sherry's body was replaced by a clay doll. It wasn't difficult for Touma to predict the place where Sherry would appear by feeling the changes in the air. And because Sherry's speed couldn't match Touma's, it was easy for Touma to strangle Sherry's neck just as she appeared after swapping places with the clay doll.
"You were smart by using a clay doll that you had prepared as a substitute for yourself in case you were hit by an enemy. But unfortunately the trick you used was an old, outdated trick and such tricks are very easy to guess. Moreover, I also often use the same trick to play with my enemies," Touma said while strangling Sherry using his right hand which was not wearing fire-producing gloves and was in a state where Imagine Breaker was active so Sherry couldn't control her Golem Ellis. Because the connection between Sherry and Golem Ellis was cut off by the power of Imagine Breaker.
"And right now you can't even control your golem because the connection you have with the golem is broken because of the power of the Imagine Breaker in my right hand."
"Grrr, the offspring of monsters will indeed a monsters too," Sherry said, who was having difficulty breathing because Touma was strangling her neck. She tried to escape Touma's stranglehold but her efforts were in vain because Touma's physical strength was too strong for her. "But you underestimate me too much, Kamijou Touma! Do you think that just by cutting off the connection I have with Ellis' golem, I have no other way to control the golem that contains half of my spirit?"
Without Touma realizing, Sherry injured the index finger of his right hand using her sharp thumbnail. And a large amount of blood dripped from the index finger of Sherry's left hand and then the blood flowed towards Ellis' golem which was lying not far from where Touma had strangled her.
***
When Sherry's blood touched her Golem Ellis, once again the Golem Ellis moved again and this time the Golem turned into a huge spear that moved at a speed that surpassed the speed of sound. Touma, whose perception ability is abnormal, can feel that something is flying towards him from behind at high speed.
Touma's speed in the infinite white room is limited by Hiko to only reach the speed of sound even though Touma uses body reinforcement so Touma cannot avoid Sherry's attacks.
And because Touma didn't want Sherry to get hurt, Touma threw Sherry on the floor and he allowed Sherry's spear to injure him. Even though it was only a little, Touma, with his limited body speed, managed to avoid Sherry's spear from hitting a vital part of his body.
Instead the upper part of his arm was slightly scratched by the clay spear.
"Tch, clever girl, you used your own blood as a catalyst to control the golem again and because of that blood you were able to control your golem at a level you weren't able to before. You can even fly the spear you made beyond the speed of sound," Touma said while looking at Sherry who had fainted because she had lost a lot of blood. "You even managed to injure me a little with that attack, your determination to achieve what you wanted was truly insane Sherry Cromwell. Even though you had to sacrifice your own life due to excessive blood loss, I will ensure that grandfather will give you what he promised you. "Tssk, that old man, at such an important time, why isn't he here? Why did he come out of this room when the fight was only halfway through?"
Touma then stopped the bleeding on Sherry's left index finger and took her out of the infinite white room. He also didn't forget to put Sherry's Golem Ellis into his dimensional bag.

"It was truly beyonds expectations that girl was be able to hurt Touma in such an unexpected way, the strong determination she had to become a Hybrid of an Esper and a magician made her able to achieve things she couldn't do before," Hiko said who could feel what is had happen in an infinite white room just by relying on Nen."And it seems that Ryouma's grandson decided to learn from me, so he can become stronger. Unfortunately, currently the boy's body is being burdened by the gravity of the security system I created to protect Yuragi Sou. I wonder how long it will take for that boy to get to Yuragi Sou."
"Hiko-kun, why don't you let Ryouma-kun great grandson enter Yuragi Sou?" Asked Chitose who was massaging Hiko's shoulder. "It's a pity that he has to suffer under such super heavy gravitational pressure."
"That was a test I made for him Chitose-chan," Answered Hiko. "If he can't get to Yuragi Sou, just because of being suppressed by such gravitational pressure. Then he doesn't deserve to be my student at all, I want to see if he has the strong willpower he would need to learn the sword techniques I used to teach to Ryouma."
