The morning light is the first thing our young esper wakes up to. Unfamiliar walls and supremely soft sheets assault his senses.
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm0LtCnk2pf
Izuku: ‘Where…’
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbQWYaTJgyy
Then the memories return, and he nearly erupts from the bed in embarrassment. Speaking of beds…
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVQPwnmn3NS
Izuku: “M-Momo?”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6pSiT4TAQx
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.
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcXwfm9AKMJ
Izuku: “Great… ”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbOSpBsjA1h
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.
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGNpdqDZR5l
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…? ’
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmEilLNsbpj
As he places his hero costume back on, he takes a step forward.
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLGsIKxP80u
Izuku: ‘It wouldn’t hurt for them to be friends at least. Yeah, that’s all.’
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡztMMZSUKGt
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.
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyqP8Ip3fMq
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.
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg8pFPLGicE
Momo: “Ah, good morning, Izuku. You came just in time. Sit down; it won’t take long.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwHntolU6xP
The boy was starstruck by the sight of a beautiful girl cooking for him.
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgd63pfB81H
Izuku: “Y-You’re cooking… for me?”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQCxmpxQyf
Momo: “Yes! It’s my first time, but I think I got the hang of it.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡobXguLZt7K
Izuku: “T-Thank you… ”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxMVYsdWnBa
Dragging his body to the table, he tried to come to terms with the situation.
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUKz5mAqeSh
Izuku: ‘It’s almost like we’re married already…’
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgvR9NbXbPM
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.
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJalPwQ6M8s
Izuku: “Momo, where are your parents?”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡplIxhwg23H
Momo: “Well, they believe in independence. The butler and maids only work 3 times a week, so we have a lot of time alone.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1yMy1Z7lYa
Izuku: “R-Right.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8OBwOpLixv
Momo: “As for where Mom and Dad are, I suppose all over. They have many business ventures that require their attention.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9C2ge3lMtW
Izuku: “Don’t you… miss them?”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYnmRyTbIxo
Momo: “… Sometimes. But I’ve gotten used to it. Besides…”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡypl3QIFY5V
She finishes cooking and sets the steaming meal on the table.
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk8cVnr1nwD
Momo: “It gives us privacy. Imagine if my parents were here yesterday.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwTQeqqq2mm
Izuku: “Y-Yeah, that would have been… unfortunate.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSkZxpLyLVn
He says while taking a sip from the glass of water present with the meal.
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQd8Meiay9y
Momo: “It would. I’d like for them to see my future husband while he’s decent.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnbeRj7cXVC
And there goes the water. After coughing, the poor boy gives Momo a bewildered look. She returns it with a head tilt and smile.
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ376bj3brgl
Izuku: “H-Husband!?”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM8QbkBZF19
Momo: “Of course. That’s what happens when you’re in a relationship, right? You fall in love, date, and eventually get married.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ23pOiyKZSM
Izuku: “I-I know, but… aren’t we too young to be thinking about marriage?”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQDbCKzHTZd
Momo: “Too young to think about marriage but old enough to have sex?”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡooEQII4aFe
Izuku: “… Fair point.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhfEy37RrAm
She takes his hand into hers and squeezes enough to show the sincerity of her words.
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSKZ0a8IvjX
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.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYD8R5Qk0Q7
Izuku: “I am… it’s just-”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyJizCSUesN
Momo: “I know, Tae. I get it. But I have a feeling I’m the one right about her.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo2cdgqKFkS
Izuku: “W-Why do you say that?”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNJooHBeEdV
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.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxdeM5YBRto
Izuku: “I-I see…”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6om2pEBiJG
Momo: “… You still believe that her feelings are real?”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2HvgxwfFJl
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.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0sY2s7vo2q
With that, Momo removes her hand.
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9f3m0eq9E0
Momo: “You know, I~zuu~kuu… ”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsRVI6RDXgs
Izuku: “Huh?”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUbhWqJOcNE
The boy looks at Momo, who was smiling at him, but based on the red aura surrounding her, it wasn’t a good smile.
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkl6RO6Roc5
Momo: “No girl likes to hear her crush talking about another girl during breakfast. One she made.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb5ri21FEeg
Izuku: “S-Sorry!”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJIxAZ8L1Mi
Momo sighs while Izuku digs into his food. She can only pick at it.
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8geBN43bMb
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-”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq7PyzbMH7c
Izuku: “You’re wrong.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZFBqfrCTfV
He stops eating and looks at the girl with a glare that freezes any words left in her throat.
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrYddVIatiA
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.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqgXk5vHUsl
Momo: “I’m not-”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCsbapwKwtZ
Izuku: “Momo.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5gL6zlTglt
Momo: “… Fine, I’m a bit jealous. Can’t really blame me? She monopolizes your time, and you kissed her first.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYMxj71pGA7
Izuku: “I’ll be sure to be fair to both of you from now on.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgX0YeLk3XR
Momo: “You’re talking as if you’ll date both of us.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdxEVonB6Op
Izuku: “W-What?! O-Of course not, that wouldn’t work! Hahaha… ”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC8Kw1g4EiT
Momo: “… No, I don’t think it would.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXQUF4x93bw
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.
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ61tGPDMJ8m
Stunned by the love and affection received, he can only watch Momo practically bounce away with joy at her heels.
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCww4E0KiFe
Izuku: ‘I-I really am lucky.’
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC3nQyxN9vJ
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSX4P2eDO8N
Fubuki: “Where were you?”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzBJPae5D3b
Izuku: ‘Nevermind.’
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8S4nLXfmoU
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.
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl3qvbW52BF
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?”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTp7KLRhLQG
Izuku: “Well… I… ”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ759iwPH8me
Her face softens, and she lets out some soft giggles.
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡADz8qZi3D7
Fubuki: “I guess my little brother is growing up. Just make sure to use protection.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRAMd0Lfhkw
Izuku: “I-I-It’s not like that!”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzfLpcD7Ax4
Fubuki: “Sure it isn’t. Then what’s that perfume I smell and the smudge on your lips?”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeRSDfb7Qat
Izuku: “What!?”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl7EHXP6yEN
He quickly wipes his mouth, and sure enough, lipstick.
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5IBS04ODlw
Izuku: ‘Did she do that on purpose?!’
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLoIRDRWxqm
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.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF6cF5RhnMx
Izuku: “I-I’m sure you’ll find someone, Fubuki.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl7jCaKKINn
Fubuki: “Maybe… or I might have missed my chance a long time ago… ”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUZcqpKmTjs
She shakes away the memory of that old flame she blew out herself.
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQW16ybAn7I
Fubuki: “Come on, we’re going on a joint field trip today.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIf6dqdnisr
The boy follows his sister into the building and inquires further.
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ1OzYnkHrJ
Izuku: “Field trip?”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEsKpcDKaoi
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.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvaJdDERgLt
Izuku: “Okay, is Tatsu coming too?”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKBlhTSUQ1m
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.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQzDC4j3Pnv
Izuku: “She really is always on call huh?”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0C161hz1hb
Fubuki: “They’d call her overseas if they could.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQFussUnoVW
Izuku: “So… where are we going?”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTCDJKyfGnY
Fubuki: “Hosu City.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡISecAD3v9E
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmlnBXMdutb
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.
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJrzhJDCswb
Darn her sympathy.
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxht3Xv0opc
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.
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmAIIQ5hPBb
Momo: ‘Can’t believe I’m saying this, but… I want to help her. Time for some more drastic measures.’
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwHyWG4zIBT
When the break came, Momo went to Kiri, who was simply standing next to a wall.
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuSHraqjYJ7
Momo: “Tae, are you okay? You seem… off today.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIejRZKupHt
Kiri: “… I’ll survive. I have my family.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1kgpnHH8Lr
Momo: “So… I take it that you gave up on Izuku.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbpbrJ4509x
A slight twitch.
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSOpU9GL6SJ
Kiri: “First names?”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ10Q4VaFo3z
Momo: “It was bound to happen. But you didn’t answer my question.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHqhCqJ3ekZ
Kiri: “… I don’t want to give up. But… even Dark Shadow seems… uncertain of his emotions towards Tokoyami.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmQeeOvdz4N
Momo: “I see… ”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtUKDATHkli
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.
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeawnQKiurZ
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.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS5zuwhrNVT
Kiri glances at Momo but doesn’t move any other part of her body.
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJgFuwhUESm
Kiri: “Why are you talking to me, Udders?”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhTA54YPnBw
And just like that, the sympathy is gone.
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRSWHkgHePN
Momo: “Can you please call me something else?”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxfSspC5HAW
Kiri: “No, it fits you.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMXs5FWhv1D
Momo: “Wha… you know what? You’re right.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiVZhrVTC04
Kiri: “I know.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgvOAX5rqE4
Momo: “Anyway! You’re right because Izuku loves my… c-chest.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZYggHkyQ4w
An intake of breath and another twitch.
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0piNUZCl2Q
Kiri: “Excuse me?”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlEeZyF0jUs
Momo: “We made out, got really… i-i-intimate last night. Didn’t go all the way, but we thought about it.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSl3EqHrA9i
Kiri: “You-”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlfJt1t5a6a
Momo: “So if you don’t stop moping around, I’ll take him from right under you.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCxLokm9YE9
She leaves for the shower before Kiri could retaliate. Along the way, what she just did hits her.
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7FEe0jSyOR
Momo: ‘What was I thinking!? Why did I practically encourage her to keep chasing Izuku?!’
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwc7PunxXoF
If it wouldn’t echo, she’d slam her head on the hall for her foolishness. But the answer to her question is obvious.
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcSURKranVc
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… ’
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡncy3oELzTa
As the water hits her body, she thinks back to Izuku’s words this morning.
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaeO8Osm40V
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.’
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs6aqWkNZzV
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.
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlrbbyseFGr
Momo: ‘It’s strange I notice these things now.’
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2lu4z7sghU
Edgeshot: “Good job, you three did well today. Time for a joint field trip.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIfWa6RWWCd
Momo: “Field trip?”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP5rrvn79FS
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.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡusvriFbJfK
Tokoyami: “How so?”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdoJL5J4kfA
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.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAHf2iF0ZSA
Tokoyami: “… Understood.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMHF6U3ZTuv
Kiri: “Location?”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU5o67eDsfQ
Edgeshot: “Hosu City. Yes, the other city with the recent earthquakes.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCgf3hPAExg
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIGWVPowXLQ
Kaoru: “No Tornado… ”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ99syEd3sDo
Izuku: “Hahaha.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQlPwZ2NI6m
Fubuki: “Get over it and focus. Big sis was pampering you anyway.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAPjzAjwLfQ
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.
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXFxLk18pmT
Currently, the group is at the designated meeting place within Hosu City. Apparently, they are the first ones here.
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuIO6FNCwIP
Alice: “Are we too early?
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBRhO5HKo7p
Fubuki: “No, just on time.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVVEUShzDOl
Izuku: “Then where are the two other groups?”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpS95cR4cbG
Fubuki: “One is late. The other is hiding. Edgeshot, you’ve taught your kids well.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTyPGzvubkP
Edgeshot: “And your senses have gotten better.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLqcZ1WpyUE
Out of the shadow come four ninjas.
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlkKIzQmY9w
Kaoru: “Whoa, what the heck!?”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcngckA3ZX4
Lily: “Cool…”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCpOCmk23SH
Mountain Ape: “Tch, ninjas… ”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt9h1anh8gx
Izuku: “Kiri! Momo!”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnSXmOPJlXI
The two girls warmly smile at the boy before returning to their tough ninja masks.
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcNCR0eOAgD
Edgeshot: “Seems like Gunhead is not here yet.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9sZ6FS0zWA
Fubuki: “We’ll wait 15 more minutes.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcvuYmbfJD0
Izuku: “Gunhead? That means Uraraka and… Kirishima will come.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOZSxjCJDnh
Izuku: ‘Yep, I’m still a bit jealous of him. I’m such a hypocrite.’
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrk3sCedsmQ
Kaoru: “Hey, you three have pretty cool cloaks.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYnvgkRNUcl
Now that she mentions it, yeah. Momo and Kiri now have hooded cloaks similar to Tokoyami, even with the same color.
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLbX72FBvCj
Alice: “You really come across as ninjas.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7pdY9lVh5U
Tokoyami: “We have been embraced by the shadows.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLgZRXJcUGV
Kiri: “Nh.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOeI71CwlRu
Momo: “Black isn’t really a part of my color scheme though.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ42czIXCqAj
She says while readjusting the silver clasp of her cloak.
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcr8dJ9pi3a
Izuku: “It… l-looks good on you though.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzJ71ymGDfL
Momo: “R-Really? Well… I guess I can make an exception.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS9Mk9iMp26
Kiri can only sigh at their blush.
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUA7r9ZCYxL
Kiri: ‘Is this my life now?’
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkAxXerpSZb
Edgeshot: “Here they come.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWdrcQhKwtq
Just then, Gunhead was running towards them along with his two interns.
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡywcWmT7v2k
Gunhead: “Sorry we’re late. Had to deal with a purse snatcher, if you can believe it.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkVuf4TkLIj
Uraraka: “Midoriya!”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6JdpSMLnvg
Kirishima: “Hey, Tae!”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡznnk1XmHH1
The group comes together to share their internship tales while the adults describe the plans.
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0hTvMLdg1j
Fubuki: “The odd ones out are Alice and Kaoru. Build the teams around those two.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLoUdGR79Ki
Edgeshot: “Agreed, that way the teams aren’t all classmates.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxIYoKYcbKy
Gunhead: “Adding one of your Blizzard Group members can help even things out.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF42AhfRlft
Fubuki: “Alright, but I’m keeping Mountain Ape with me. That way it’s 3x3.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡglZZGgLRHl
Edgeshot: “Very well. Here are the patrolling teams. And remember, let the kids grow into their own. Only interfere if necessary.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTbgF4D6HOC
Gunhead: “Roger.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3BnGRWZv2h
Kaoru’s Team:
- Tokoyami
- Kirishima
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3dES9srQBt
Alice’s Team:
- Izuku
- Uraraka
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU5b5nz8z6o
Lily’s Team:
- Kiri
- Momo
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0MmnId8N73
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.
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLCZXHLpcaK
Fubuki: “Make sure to lead them well, Lily.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3rfRF5cxuh
Lily: “Yes, Boss Fubuki.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgEnzLWEr1k
Edgeshot: “We’ll meet back here in 12 hours.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgfH6VviaDU
Everyone: “12 hours!?”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5J5YYd6yvt
Fubuki: “The city is large, and sometimes you’ll need to patrol that long if other heroes are unavailable.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvhjVdq9DB
Gunhead: “I hate when that happens. Having to cover nearly a whole city with just a few good pro heroes.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA4i09HzWGH
Edgeshot: “Especially when it’s for some big event or because some pro needed to take special leave for whatever reason.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGV4hdlgl76
Fubuki: “So you all understand?”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0eU41fHETo
They nodded, if a bit slowly.
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBEWiZZcLC5
Fubuki: “Don’t worry. We won’t be that far away if something goes wrong and you have our numbers.”

Gunhead: “Besides, it’s just a routine patrol. What’s the worst that can happen?”

On top of the many buildings stands a killer of fake heroes. Behind him, a black portal opens. From within exist Tomura and Azrael.
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrJonpNj3FM
Tomura: “Hosu, man… it’s surprisingly prosperous.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw6BVDhDla2
Azrael: “Not for long, I’d imagine.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡml8e18dZ4q
Stain: “I’m going to reform this city, and for that, more… sacrifices are needed.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrKFQ5JHmgE
The killer opens his arms, as if to embrace the city.
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlxlNOXk7wv
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.”

He jumps off the roof, hand grasping his blade, ready to rend the weeds from the trees.
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk9kRKb2DRV
Tomura: “This is your second outing. What have you learned?”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP7Aa5shKHx
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.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIm03JInKyh
Tomura: “So just a tool?”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOMKnbaYOem
Azrael: “One with a message.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9mKImli39d
The man scoffs at the notion.
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPIda7ssXO0
Tomura: “Does he want to raise up a damn grassroots movement or what?”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5HEe0iwuJF
Kurogiri: “Unfortunately, it doesn’t seem to be working.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBbFDea0CEn
Tomura: “Oh?”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9g0szYtwR8
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.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOG1ArfkSoS
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’!”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC4IA5WkQpl
After Tomura stops laughing at the hilarity of the situation, he stills and starts scratching his neck.
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtaNCiJMYRy
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.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡps2PtOkPBC
Azrael: “I can already tell you want to unleash the Nomus; I would advise against it.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbGiqcnZnBZ
He stops scratching his neck and glances at Azrael.
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGoxRAdjWLE
Tomura: “And why is that?”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUVKcBJBpS3
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.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVF8PZRSLRC
Tomura: “It was probably nothing. Don’t let it get to you.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4PeR2Cb2K8
Azrael: “Maybe, but… I want to know. Besides, you shouldn’t waste Nomus or quirk beasts on this. Not unless we need to.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9TGbibR9qV
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.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq0Y9dhr30c
Azrael: “Thank you. Where is Apotheosis, by the way?”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFJjCDE0NAV
Tomura: “Tch, where do you think?”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbKplduSEJW
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.”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZRmP9iTy9i
With that, the eldest disappears into a mud portal. As for Tomura, he began to scratch his neck again.
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYFfjLdWX62
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?”
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9qKGUr6qTv
Sensing the command, Kurogiri opens a portal that unleashes five varied and grotesque nomus into the city.
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN2lYvCB0Fw
Tomura: “Level… start.”
