The morning light is the first thing our young esper wakes up to. Unfamiliar walls and supremely soft sheets assault his senses.
234Please respect copyright.PENANAlLn2jPNGoN
Izuku: ‘Where…’
234Please respect copyright.PENANAbAr5TUL0xZ
Then the memories return, and he nearly erupts from the bed in embarrassment. Speaking of beds…
234Please respect copyright.PENANAGrcTFO8eQW
Izuku: “M-Momo?”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAhF8WFv30fd
The girl he nearly gave everything to was missing. Her warmth was still there, soft and inviting. A few hours within wouldn’t hurt. But he still has internships, and he has to explain to Fubuki where he was.
234Please respect copyright.PENANAonY1FzLKki
Izuku: “Great… ”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAqyOCImGsm5
No use moaning over it. He reluctantly exits the bed and rediscovers the bathroom he used last night. Freshening up, he accepts the small change within.
234Please respect copyright.PENANAj3g1bf7bIg
Izuku: ‘Sure, I want M-Momo. A lot. But I also want Kiri. I don’t want to make either of them sad. Can it… be possible…? ’
234Please respect copyright.PENANAFPkCo5t9KL
As he places his hero costume back on, he takes a step forward.
234Please respect copyright.PENANALyf4BlcdpV
Izuku: ‘It wouldn’t hurt for them to be friends at least. Yeah, that’s all.’
234Please respect copyright.PENANAHe0smINFmr
With that rationalization out of the way, the boy goes to the living room and eventually smells something cooking. Following the source, he is blessed with the sight of Momo making breakfast in the kitchen.
234Please respect copyright.PENANAjvUTpeFhHD
Her hair was down, and she was wearing casual wear that perfectly emphasized her soft figure. Sensing his presence, she turned around and gave him a smile worthy of the greatest wife award.
234Please respect copyright.PENANArUDgM2tTnK
Momo: “Ah, good morning, Izuku. You came just in time. Sit down; it won’t take long.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAkdkrwGmd7z
The boy was starstruck by the sight of a beautiful girl cooking for him.
234Please respect copyright.PENANA9FstGiPsrC
Izuku: “Y-You’re cooking… for me?”
234Please respect copyright.PENANApa7wlntyqt
Momo: “Yes! It’s my first time, but I think I got the hang of it.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAm6IrHicGWT
Izuku: “T-Thank you… ”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAZ47LexEECm
Dragging his body to the table, he tried to come to terms with the situation.
234Please respect copyright.PENANA6iVvuDAS4c
Izuku: ‘It’s almost like we’re married already…’
234Please respect copyright.PENANAaT885ysFIL
As Izuku thinks that, he looks around and finally notices just how quiet the house is. He’s gotten used to it, but it’s still strange. Considering he might actually be with this girl, he might as well ask a question he’s had for a while.
234Please respect copyright.PENANAqucNhtQQJ7
Izuku: “Momo, where are your parents?”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAUJaDv0yDwF
Momo: “Well, they believe in independence. The butler and maids only work 3 times a week, so we have a lot of time alone.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAabYMMjaHku
Izuku: “R-Right.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAjhp5zWFgD6
Momo: “As for where Mom and Dad are, I suppose all over. They have many business ventures that require their attention.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAEsT8BsK6Ud
Izuku: “Don’t you… miss them?”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAxeceDBOnqN
Momo: “… Sometimes. But I’ve gotten used to it. Besides…”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAWiofHaqNwi
She finishes cooking and sets the steaming meal on the table.
234Please respect copyright.PENANAkhGveigZAA
Momo: “It gives us privacy. Imagine if my parents were here yesterday.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAMQ9ggHWKWf
Izuku: “Y-Yeah, that would have been… unfortunate.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANATHqGJ4CI36
He says while taking a sip from the glass of water present with the meal.
234Please respect copyright.PENANAkMjskrFreZ
Momo: “It would. I’d like for them to see my future husband while he’s decent.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANA8Hbbk2k32O
And there goes the water. After coughing, the poor boy gives Momo a bewildered look. She returns it with a head tilt and smile.
234Please respect copyright.PENANATuKjh6NFax
Izuku: “H-Husband!?”
234Please respect copyright.PENANApYvrznXudt
Momo: “Of course. That’s what happens when you’re in a relationship, right? You fall in love, date, and eventually get married.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAYrSm2jOAgg
Izuku: “I-I know, but… aren’t we too young to be thinking about marriage?”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAMcZItaOZsP
Momo: “Too young to think about marriage but old enough to have sex?”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAnacrWTCHxL
Izuku: “… Fair point.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAD2eeP3e3m2
She takes his hand into hers and squeezes enough to show the sincerity of her words.
234Please respect copyright.PENANAQCb7tQgXJF
Momo: “Izuku, this is the first relationship I’ve been in, and I want it to go right. I want to take it seriously. I hope you’re the same.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANA7RpPypSrb4
Izuku: “I am… it’s just-”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAA52CYamLkX
Momo: “I know, Tae. I get it. But I have a feeling I’m the one right about her.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAQHrc4CJtMF
Izuku: “W-Why do you say that?”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAqCcVGC3Jiv
Momo: “Well, Tokoyami and Tae came back to the agency really out of it. Considering the fact she’s very similar to Dark Shadow, it wasn’t hard to guess what happened. I suppose she has her answer.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANA5JQOg0Rpnk
Izuku: “I-I see…”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAydse4FF8ua
Momo: “… You still believe that her feelings are real?”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAktL4dMbIbE
Izuku: “I do. It’s hard to explain. I mean… how do you even prove something like that? But I can just tell… when we’re together.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAWsmzu8GYGd
With that, Momo removes her hand.
234Please respect copyright.PENANAVrK5ApsNJw
Momo: “You know, I~zuu~kuu… ”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAGOGXIc8csa
Izuku: “Huh?”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAF8HAkKzr1g
The boy looks at Momo, who was smiling at him, but based on the red aura surrounding her, it wasn’t a good smile.
234Please respect copyright.PENANAEO8sg01VQC
Momo: “No girl likes to hear her crush talking about another girl during breakfast. One she made.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANADCACa2px1p
Izuku: “S-Sorry!”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAV91YsFuhzT
Momo sighs while Izuku digs into his food. She can only pick at it.
234Please respect copyright.PENANAdmandehjg3
Momo: “This is why I think it’s unhealthy. You two are codependent on each other. More than that, there’s so much else wrong with it. You’re siblings, she’s technically not even a teenager yet, and-”
234Please respect copyright.PENANA57p7NV3g7J
Izuku: “You’re wrong.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANA28uFXZyeGJ
He stops eating and looks at the girl with a glare that freezes any words left in her throat.
234Please respect copyright.PENANAV7sJFICZf7
Izuku: “Listen, even if we… start d-dating, Kiri will always be a part of my life. She’s… like my other half. No matter what, we will be together. So I would prefer if you two got along instead of fighting. Don’t let jealousy cloud your judgment.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAtVuXyP0M52
Momo: “I’m not-”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAXqlP2tsaNR
Izuku: “Momo.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAjm5XTG4F0l
Momo: “… Fine, I’m a bit jealous. Can’t really blame me? She monopolizes your time, and you kissed her first.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAyNbsYgPGtD
Izuku: “I’ll be sure to be fair to both of you from now on.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAixMznzqvQR
Momo: “You’re talking as if you’ll date both of us.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAtX11DVKdAq
Izuku: “W-What?! O-Of course not, that wouldn’t work! Hahaha… ”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAZZw0eHbP3d
Momo: “… No, I don’t think it would.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAciG2mQqhds
That signaled the end of that conversation. The duo ate their food in silence until it was time to leave. Despite the somewhat awkward conclusion, Momo was still able to give Izuku a goodbye kiss.
234Please respect copyright.PENANAFH9i9o3RZh
Stunned by the love and affection received, he can only watch Momo practically bounce away with joy at her heels.
234Please respect copyright.PENANADNf2rS2zSw
Izuku: ‘I-I really am lucky.’
234Please respect copyright.PENANAMWbJs9EOsI
234Please respect copyright.PENANA2n5o4xYeZY
Fubuki: “Where were you?”
234Please respect copyright.PENANARRgSfmLOQj
Izuku: ‘Nevermind.’
234Please respect copyright.PENANAaux9Xu5lGK
After a few teleports, he made it back to the Blizzard Group, and his sister wasn’t happy. She was at the front with her arms crossed and eyes narrowed.
234Please respect copyright.PENANAnmeiySfcbg
Fubuki: “You said you were going to get some extra training with a classmate. I didn’t expect you to stay the night, though. Should I know something?”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAo81QU4lCAT
Izuku: “Well… I… ”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAFepoGL46X4
Her face softens, and she lets out some soft giggles.
234Please respect copyright.PENANAQAY8irU6KZ
Fubuki: “I guess my little brother is growing up. Just make sure to use protection.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANA9ImHVhzQ3V
Izuku: “I-I-It’s not like that!”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAgH6GSxT82P
Fubuki: “Sure it isn’t. Then what’s that perfume I smell and the smudge on your lips?”
234Please respect copyright.PENANApNUPuQeAjZ
Izuku: “What!?”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAmiq3SytrJs
He quickly wipes his mouth, and sure enough, lipstick.
234Please respect copyright.PENANAX4yTSwTuxL
Izuku: ‘Did she do that on purpose?!’
234Please respect copyright.PENANA1nufzDuJgJ
Fubuki: “Okay, I’ll stop teasing. I won’t lie, though; I’m a bit jealous. I guess I’m the only single Midoriya. Not counting Kiri.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAGRDWFgkzcy
Izuku: “I-I’m sure you’ll find someone, Fubuki.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANA1pZAE4h1Lm
Fubuki: “Maybe… or I might have missed my chance a long time ago… ”
234Please respect copyright.PENANARl47rVB1oY
She shakes away the memory of that old flame she blew out herself.
234Please respect copyright.PENANA2ELQhhUW3x
Fubuki: “Come on, we’re going on a joint field trip today.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAnVGGfbq3Jy
The boy follows his sister into the building and inquires further.
234Please respect copyright.PENANAn8X7mTfuJN
Izuku: “Field trip?”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAan9Q0WQAZW
Fubuki: “Yeah, you need to be able to patrol in different cities if needed. To adapt quickly to new environments. While we’re gone, I’ll leave Eyelashes in charge.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAD3IshT7SJq
Izuku: “Okay, is Tatsu coming too?”
234Please respect copyright.PENANA2KS8AaPKl9
Fubuki: “No, much to Akashi’s dismay. There was a small outbreak of quirk beasts a few cities away and another earthquake disaster. She was the only one that could make it in time.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAPtsInBXHxn
Izuku: “She really is always on call huh?”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAKW2YBdCF3O
Fubuki: “They’d call her overseas if they could.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAwMD1pcroQ4
Izuku: “So… where are we going?”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAuZuumukEnb
Fubuki: “Hosu City.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAtnaWLklpCY
234Please respect copyright.PENANA3IkpKCEm8c
Even Momo had to admit she was worried about Kiri. She knew the news that her love for Izuku might be fake would be devastating. But it was harder to watch than she thought.
234Please respect copyright.PENANADCVdvR3mTz
Darn her sympathy.
234Please respect copyright.PENANAeYcLoLQxyn
On the outside, Kiri seemed fine. She went through the motions of ninjutsu training alongside Tokoyami and her. But it was more robotic than usual.
234Please respect copyright.PENANAjfDI6VYZTr
Momo: ‘Can’t believe I’m saying this, but… I want to help her. Time for some more drastic measures.’
234Please respect copyright.PENANA9TJZcAogKE
When the break came, Momo went to Kiri, who was simply standing next to a wall.
234Please respect copyright.PENANAX5jqFBlhqF
Momo: “Tae, are you okay? You seem… off today.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAichf3ADvzc
Kiri: “… I’ll survive. I have my family.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAxtoomJdRCs
Momo: “So… I take it that you gave up on Izuku.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAhStAAExqTi
A slight twitch.
234Please respect copyright.PENANAQ0YbRXAsek
Kiri: “First names?”
234Please respect copyright.PENANA1egiliGyF7
Momo: “It was bound to happen. But you didn’t answer my question.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANACRYBr0Wa7V
Kiri: “… I don’t want to give up. But… even Dark Shadow seems… uncertain of his emotions towards Tokoyami.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAmnxcVvii1Q
Momo: “I see… ”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAr0i9vAOjLo
She should be happy that Kiri is a step closer to backing off. But darn it, stepping on someone’s heart will never feel right to her. Her mind can’t help but see herself in Kiri’s shoes.
234Please respect copyright.PENANAgo2rJ7Deqj
Momo: “Maybe… he just hasn’t come to an answer yet. I don’t know what you said to them, but I’m sure it was a lot to take in.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAD8SRpUadGZ
Kiri glances at Momo but doesn’t move any other part of her body.
234Please respect copyright.PENANAac9s60eM5o
Kiri: “Why are you talking to me, Udders?”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAbNogqcb3St
And just like that, the sympathy is gone.
234Please respect copyright.PENANAATzAF01IGG
Momo: “Can you please call me something else?”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAhTtN5pcRKo
Kiri: “No, it fits you.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAEwRH5gAJVT
Momo: “Wha… you know what? You’re right.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAITVD2v8KbE
Kiri: “I know.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAV93hVINML9
Momo: “Anyway! You’re right because Izuku loves my… c-chest.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANACerSL1c7pU
An intake of breath and another twitch.
234Please respect copyright.PENANAxU6vPrAQjE
Kiri: “Excuse me?”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAFdk0jAsjdN
Momo: “We made out, got really… i-i-intimate last night. Didn’t go all the way, but we thought about it.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANACh8VeNPYYD
Kiri: “You-”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAVx7rHbgZer
Momo: “So if you don’t stop moping around, I’ll take him from right under you.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAqbwPD9Jg6S
She leaves for the shower before Kiri could retaliate. Along the way, what she just did hits her.
234Please respect copyright.PENANAzK3SHly6tz
Momo: ‘What was I thinking!? Why did I practically encourage her to keep chasing Izuku?!’
234Please respect copyright.PENANANXSFArcrp1
If it wouldn’t echo, she’d slam her head on the hall for her foolishness. But the answer to her question is obvious.
234Please respect copyright.PENANArdkhcLru1y
Momo: ‘Someone I knew was in pain, and I wanted to help. I don’t hate Tae, despite everything. I just want Izuku to stay with me instead… ’
234Please respect copyright.PENANAsJ6mP2kW89
As the water hits her body, she thinks back to Izuku’s words this morning.
234Please respect copyright.PENANAENmAGiMyo0
Momo: ‘He’s right… those two will be together regardless if they’re dating or not. I’ll have to accept that and… try to get along with her. As long as she’s willing.’
234Please respect copyright.PENANADeNlkgH5ik
With that in mind, she finished the shower and joined the other two back in the dojo. Kiri was still expressionless but did seem a bit more lively.
234Please respect copyright.PENANARSV23coO90
Momo: ‘It’s strange I notice these things now.’
234Please respect copyright.PENANAivDWK7bIZA
Edgeshot: “Good job, you three did well today. Time for a joint field trip.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANA8mjDABwm6t
Momo: “Field trip?”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAchHA5wQ7kf
Edgeshot: “Yes. You’ll need to be able to quickly adapt to new environments and learn how to work with new people. You’ll be on your own as well. After I take you there, you’ll have to rely on your skills for this patrol. This will also be a good chance for you, Tokoyami.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAaYsKzDlqZh
Tokoyami: “How so?”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAlyRuXmvwXR
Edgeshot: “This patrol will last till the night to test and train your stamina and stealth. Night calls are not uncommon. You need to be ready.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANA4PmNtsfelj
Tokoyami: “… Understood.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAFc2LuPTuxe
Kiri: “Location?”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAu7zjV5TyjE
Edgeshot: “Hosu City. Yes, the other city with the recent earthquakes.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAGz4vZM402X
234Please respect copyright.PENANAU3IE8AXXkU
Kaoru: “No Tornado… ”
234Please respect copyright.PENANA3Yv7BkiOuy
Izuku: “Hahaha.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANA7k6XSbTNR4
Fubuki: “Get over it and focus. Big sis was pampering you anyway.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANA7znV9iZjet
Fubuki’s group consisted of Izuku, Kaoru, Alice, Lily, and Mountain Ape. They were all in their hero costumes. Alice’s costume stood out as a nature-themed suit with a white and green color scheme along with an orange glass mask. Thanks to Izuku’s suggestions, she had several pockets filled with different seeds.
234Please respect copyright.PENANAmNf6pWheJd
Currently, the group is at the designated meeting place within Hosu City. Apparently, they are the first ones here.
234Please respect copyright.PENANAyql6xtcvUr
Alice: “Are we too early?
234Please respect copyright.PENANAFF9Ihje2qD
Fubuki: “No, just on time.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANA5IW0mnAuGX
Izuku: “Then where are the two other groups?”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAgdO9wyayuU
Fubuki: “One is late. The other is hiding. Edgeshot, you’ve taught your kids well.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAt0kld45d5Z
Edgeshot: “And your senses have gotten better.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAjpMfGuxw9D
Out of the shadow come four ninjas.
234Please respect copyright.PENANAH2sqckDNwc
Kaoru: “Whoa, what the heck!?”
234Please respect copyright.PENANACvH5GPQTDX
Lily: “Cool…”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAkcjWnoMnJo
Mountain Ape: “Tch, ninjas… ”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAnFY80fnSmp
Izuku: “Kiri! Momo!”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAIOSU9fVM0f
The two girls warmly smile at the boy before returning to their tough ninja masks.
234Please respect copyright.PENANAIU6QR6TBMJ
Edgeshot: “Seems like Gunhead is not here yet.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANADvnl6kvMVx
Fubuki: “We’ll wait 15 more minutes.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANASimjM53jvC
Izuku: “Gunhead? That means Uraraka and… Kirishima will come.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAOZvThOXCqM
Izuku: ‘Yep, I’m still a bit jealous of him. I’m such a hypocrite.’
234Please respect copyright.PENANAVloTdhDUur
Kaoru: “Hey, you three have pretty cool cloaks.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAH6oKaaIEqO
Now that she mentions it, yeah. Momo and Kiri now have hooded cloaks similar to Tokoyami, even with the same color.
234Please respect copyright.PENANAGnCB3b3ee8
Alice: “You really come across as ninjas.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANA8akp8JZDj9
Tokoyami: “We have been embraced by the shadows.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAegJ0N5zZFO
Kiri: “Nh.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAflkYD6idof
Momo: “Black isn’t really a part of my color scheme though.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANA9gcrM2EyuV
She says while readjusting the silver clasp of her cloak.
234Please respect copyright.PENANAxAs02s6Snk
Izuku: “It… l-looks good on you though.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAsAv1cxzEX3
Momo: “R-Really? Well… I guess I can make an exception.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAYpgotrYllt
Kiri can only sigh at their blush.
234Please respect copyright.PENANAR3s5538R7U
Kiri: ‘Is this my life now?’
234Please respect copyright.PENANA2ni0akW6eK
Edgeshot: “Here they come.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAw0oAUYLqkW
Just then, Gunhead was running towards them along with his two interns.
234Please respect copyright.PENANA2iyG7V4dYL
Gunhead: “Sorry we’re late. Had to deal with a purse snatcher, if you can believe it.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAdXrbZRdlmZ
Uraraka: “Midoriya!”
234Please respect copyright.PENANA90NBRd9dnE
Kirishima: “Hey, Tae!”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAXnVgBz4awh
The group comes together to share their internship tales while the adults describe the plans.
234Please respect copyright.PENANA0SMbjnfc6N
Fubuki: “The odd ones out are Alice and Kaoru. Build the teams around those two.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAHLIe3MXZkd
Edgeshot: “Agreed, that way the teams aren’t all classmates.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAEDBTf4zYP0
Gunhead: “Adding one of your Blizzard Group members can help even things out.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAY6xTNjrOL1
Fubuki: “Alright, but I’m keeping Mountain Ape with me. That way it’s 3x3.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAX7EVuXW1qh
Edgeshot: “Very well. Here are the patrolling teams. And remember, let the kids grow into their own. Only interfere if necessary.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAgEJvdnfXhd
Gunhead: “Roger.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAuFtdRqjqsg
Kaoru’s Team:
- Tokoyami
- Kirishima
234Please respect copyright.PENANAspQ5ab4bjR
Alice’s Team:
- Izuku
- Uraraka
234Please respect copyright.PENANAumdt4SfW5s
Lily’s Team:
- Kiri
- Momo
234Please respect copyright.PENANAeDAumiklsM
Kiri and Momo couldn’t help but give Izuku the side-eye for having two cute girls other than them at his side. He didn’t meet their gaze.
234Please respect copyright.PENANA6VVQ61ogtL
Fubuki: “Make sure to lead them well, Lily.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAAkxtCPCQos
Lily: “Yes, Boss Fubuki.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAFr2ZywD18R
Edgeshot: “We’ll meet back here in 12 hours.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAWPuMOgPsc1
Everyone: “12 hours!?”
234Please respect copyright.PENANA00ZGvUnzcd
Fubuki: “The city is large, and sometimes you’ll need to patrol that long if other heroes are unavailable.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAPkI0dpJMtM
Gunhead: “I hate when that happens. Having to cover nearly a whole city with just a few good pro heroes.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAthboOrWdFu
Edgeshot: “Especially when it’s for some big event or because some pro needed to take special leave for whatever reason.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANApb5j8uFfF2
Fubuki: “So you all understand?”
234Please respect copyright.PENANA66uquPUeVZ
They nodded, if a bit slowly.
234Please respect copyright.PENANAAMfia5V4Nf
Fubuki: “Don’t worry. We won’t be that far away if something goes wrong and you have our numbers.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANA71LnUcHoAI
Gunhead: “Besides, it’s just a routine patrol. What’s the worst that can happen?”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAxA69CTxpuD
234Please respect copyright.PENANAsTGHqkGIUK
On top of the many buildings stands a killer of fake heroes. Behind him, a black portal opens. From within exist Tomura and Azrael.
234Please respect copyright.PENANAf9Ra950bnB
Tomura: “Hosu, man… it’s surprisingly prosperous.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAQPmi6jLsfP
Azrael: “Not for long, I’d imagine.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAm098HLjppc
Stain: “I’m going to reform this city, and for that, more… sacrifices are needed.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAIpJIonSFt2
The killer opens his arms, as if to embrace the city.
234Please respect copyright.PENANAkHU9K0yeTa
Stain: “The title ‘Hero’ should only be permitted to those who have achieved great undertakings! There are too many of them… counterfeit ‘Heroes’ who worship themselves or the almighty dollar. Follow me, assistant; we will teach them the error of their ways.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANA6VO8D5TNnQ
He jumps off the roof, hand grasping his blade, ready to rend the weeds from the trees.

Tomura: “This is your second outing. What have you learned?”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAMWXwAWTsUR
Azrael: “He’s as talented of a fighter as I suspected. However, we could take him out if needed. His quirk seems to be the ability to paralyze those whose blood he consumes. Duration varies on blood type.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAecANfpxsRq
Tomura: “So just a tool?”
234Please respect copyright.PENANABOxbyAl4HO
Azrael: “One with a message.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANA7eBNvTZjo0
The man scoffs at the notion.
234Please respect copyright.PENANAFhgahqfSnf
Tomura: “Does he want to raise up a damn grassroots movement or what?”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAT2ued3T1N7
Kurogiri: “Unfortunately, it doesn’t seem to be working.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAJLOFjhiOoL
Tomura: “Oh?”
234Please respect copyright.PENANASzqVgi1N0X
Kurogiri: “The reality is that in all the cities where Stain has appeared, the crime rates have fallen. Some critics attribute this to a rise in heroes becoming more aware and on guard. Simply, an increase of hero activity.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAQwuwIXefQg
Tomura: “Wow, well isn’t that just fantastic! So the more he appears, the more heroes crack down on crime? So the ‘hero killer’ is also a ‘hero breeder’!”
234Please respect copyright.PENANALvLeJ2zV0G
After Tomura stops laughing at the hilarity of the situation, he stills and starts scratching his neck.
234Please respect copyright.PENANAmMwKPYiLPF
Tomura: “As I thought… at the root we just don’t get along… annoying. If you want to kill, then kill. Those ideals only get in the way.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANABB4wqMzfME
Azrael: “I can already tell you want to unleash the Nomus; I would advise against it.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANA6eAYUJynFs
He stops scratching his neck and glances at Azrael.
234Please respect copyright.PENANAjWIOKchOhF
Tomura: “And why is that?”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAEPUtncEqVK
Azrael: “If Stain won’t work in our organization, and his goals only serve to make things worse for us, then I’ll kill him. But not before he explains to me what he saw in me.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANA7HAfh7Bcnc
Tomura: “It was probably nothing. Don’t let it get to you.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAEuP72xLVYO
Azrael: “Maybe, but… I want to know. Besides, you shouldn’t waste Nomus or quirk beasts on this. Not unless we need to.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAz6yCULDVyh
Tomura: “… Fine. You and the strategist did manage to acquire those big quirk beasts for us. Wouldn’t want to waste them on him. He isn’t worth it.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAl6inIHfHRS
Azrael: “Thank you. Where is Apotheosis, by the way?”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAOw4kR9akjQ
Tomura: “Tch, where do you think?”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAHaxeZzbkMg
Azrael: “Right… he’s been stuck in there for a while. Well, try to relax at base while I catch up with Stain. I’ll call if I need reinforcements.”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAvVyb9e8cMJ
With that, the eldest disappears into a mud portal. As for Tomura, he began to scratch his neck again.
234Please respect copyright.PENANAFhgPmvpIv7
Tomura: “Annoying… I want to crush the so-called ‘hero killer’s’ precious pride and prestige. Killing him isn’t enough. A few Nomus wouldn’t be so bad, right, Azrael?”
234Please respect copyright.PENANAdIT7anvoLE
Sensing the command, Kurogiri opens a portal that unleashes five varied and grotesque nomus into the city.
234Please respect copyright.PENANAjbS4oXRUCP
Tomura: “Level… start.”
