Kiri is usually very perceptive to the changes within Izuku, but not this time. Whatever happened was too quick, too sudden, for her to fully grasp.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeGVwgrxrCD
It felt similar to when she lost control before, but different enough to make her even more worried.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡovqYcXND0I
As soon as Shinso fell unconscious, she knew her sisters would want some answers. So she left her class and made her way to where they were.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKgCcZMDx4j
It didn’t take long for the whole family to convene; even All Might was there. They all looked at Izuku who had his head downcast. Inko sat next to him, rubbing his back.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaUEDLIWyQa
Inko: “Sweetie, what… happened?”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFUlh5YZXit
Izuku said nothing.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMleD5oJVIk
All Might: “You’re not in trouble, young Midoriya; we’re just worried.”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGLTV7dR5rq
Izuku: “I know.”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgVnwVUpZhS
Tatsumaki: “Izu, does this have anything to do with what we talked about?”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6opGcALVor
His eyes widen a little before settling back to normal.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL4OiE4xJQT
Tatsumaki: “I see. The first step in learning how not to fear your quirk is to understand it. So, what did you do to the boy?”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx04E5eEofg
Izuku: “I didn’t mean to.”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcei2xnY8c0
Inko: “We know, sweetie. We know you would never do something like… that… on purpose.”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGyZBhlIFMt
Izuku: “… All I remember is going unconscious for a second, and the next, he was screaming. I don’t… know what happened.”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCYCmEIx4yo
They all could tell that last part was a lie. Maybe he doesn’t know exactly what happened, but he has an idea. This only increased their worry.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVVIiasY1c1
Fubuki: “Let’s think about this from another angle. All Might, what quirk does Shinso have?”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJKYGPmBCim
All Might: “Hmmmm, from what I remember, he has the ability to brainwash people.”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsTQEKjbBm6
Fubuki: “That’s… disturbing.”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ39mzARLLBx
Tatsumaki: “I think I know what happened.”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡviZFQGYiix
Izuku: “Y-You do?”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6jxXd9yqWM
Tatsumaki: “I thought I sensed another psychic signature. It was weak, but there.”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxySJA7UOOT
Fubuki: “So Shinso has a quirk related to ours?”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnNXvXQF8Rd
Tatsumaki: “Yeah, but instead of telekinesis, he focuses on mental attacks.”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡasjv9lrbgf
Fubuki: ‘I guess that makes sense. Wait, doesn’t that mean I could do that eventually?’
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6hmBwA0a0b
Inko: “But what does that have to do with Izuku?”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQz503SqZGB
Tatsumaki: “Well, I guess Izu’s mind instinctively defended itself.”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD0Rmpk1DWa
Kiri could see Izuku’s shoulder lose some tension. They were on the right track.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNLJa9XeU6w
Inko: “I see! See, sweetie, it’s not your fault.”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkLAIVi4cFW
All Might: “She’s right, young Midoriya; don’t let what happened get to you. Young Shinso will be alright; Recovery Girl is on the case. In the meantime, you need to get this side of your quirk under control.”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxFZP3pKq2I
Izuku: “I’ll… try. I-I’ve already been practicing telepathy with Yaoyorozu.”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVjieOADtSG
Fubuki: “Really?”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtH5ee3DUlz
Tatsumaki: “That might have been what allowed your mind to fight back like that. More practice could help you have more control.”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzBkMeCtiIl
Izuku: “I… suppose.”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNGqgvg5gE1
Fubuki: “I can help teach him.”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWWwIVKLlyD
Tatsumaki: “You? How?”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXflTd6Dcw2
Fubuki: “Well… I’ve been recently… learning how to read minds.”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmtSjhtrp3F
They all look at Fubuki with wide eyes full of surprise.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDqQEHWPo7l
Tatsumaki: “You can do that!? Why didn’t you tell me?”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQtL4vv1P7p
Fubuki crossed her arms and looked away.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz0IOe6N17m
Fubuki: “I didn’t want to until I mastered it. You always said I should train harder; well, I found time.”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5gzqhjMk7I
Yeah, Tatsumaki always said that. Put the agency on the back burner and train harder. That way, Fubuki can stand proudly beside her at the top. But for some reason, this didn’t put a smile on her face.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdkAT4kfqO5
Tatsumaki: ‘Why would she hide it from me? She used to be so excited to share when she learned a new trick with her quirk.’
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgSrgCQYCTK
A trick or ability Tatsumaki would master in just a few moments.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj2e3WAWY18
Tatsumaki: ‘Ah…’
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeXvOxkScBH
Before that realization could sink in, Fubuki continued.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpbx8fLI4iu
Fubuki: “So, Izu, if you need help, come to me. We can help each other master this ability so we don’t hurt anyone on accident.”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnmfxTOTwF7
Izuku: “… Okay. Thanks, Fubu.”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6P9DFv1dzv
Fubuki: “Anytime.”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKRoJ9QgyGW
All Might: “Great! I’m glad you all have sorted this out. I’ll inform everyone else what we’ve learned about young Midoriya’s quirk.”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV8T1WJdO6Q
Izuku: “They might still be scared.”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg7hBjO5JZa
Tatsumaki: “Hmph, can’t please everyone. You are what you are. As long as you don’t go overboard or misuse your quirk, most people will be fine with you. You’ll see.”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW0Ow4ZaVOk
Izuku: “Y-Yeah, thanks everyone.”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6wAX3Zsh53
Just then, a loud boom was felt throughout the whole stadium. Tatsumaki was ready to tear apart the villain who dared come here. But she relaxed when she saw the real reason.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGOZf9o1sST
Tatsumaki: “You have an impressive classmate, Izu.”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ4hkCtrgCt
Inko: “W-W-What is that!?”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6xXQw1j5g0
A massive glacier of ice engulfs a large portion of the stadium. It was large enough for the whole group to see it out of their window. It was actually pretty close to their booth.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXgA9JKzCrW
Izuku: “Todoroki… ”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEDaHjMQqfv
All Might: “He might have gone a bit overboard.”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkiSaFP2Gfn
Kiri: “Icicle strong. Poor Smile.”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHXlgrZEPwT
Fubuki: “Doesn’t that mean you’re up next?”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUbBgxISU8d
Kiri: “Ah.”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG7UEZCst1l
Inko: “That’s right! Good luck, sweetie!”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYDvxFJwUb5
Kiri: “Ih.”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWREarhyfET
Kiri grabs Izuku’s hand and helps him up.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrEDQhVnwQx
Kiri: “Cheer for me?”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1wth0xThsP
Izuku: “O-Of course. I’ll be with everyone else. Don’t worry, Kiri, I’m… okay now. It wasn’t my fault; I know that now.”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvc1PgmqVsE
Kiri: “… Good.”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDG8FNf71IE
All Might: “I’ll walk young Midoriya to where his class is.”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgMj9Px2vGp
Fubuki: “I’ll help melt the ice.”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlaRVxoRKEF
Tatsumaki: “You don’t want me to do it?”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTyRnuI1SjV
Fubuki: “I can handle it.”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7nVGqUvKJX
Fubuki floated out of the booth and towards the glacier. Shaving away the ice with her quirk shouldn’t be too difficult. Besides, she can’t sit and do nothing this whole festival.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ70Llms3dDf
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKkqWvGpdr3
It didn’t take long for the trio to make it to where the rest of the class was. Izuku peered out of the corner to see his classmates sitting down and socializing while the glacier was rapidly shrinking.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5h6aHcK99o
All Might: “Don’t worry, young Midoriya, it will be alright. Your classmates will not treat you any differently.”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlyfVVKpdVR
Izuku: “I-I know. Doesn’t stop my heart from racing.”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwLqQaEVQ0x
All Might: “Hahaha, if anything, it proves you didn’t do it on purpose. Someone who worries about how his friends see him wouldn’t do something to make them fear him.”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHcsBJHJEo5
Izuku: ‘Not on purpose.’
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWARQP7savM
All Might: “I’ll go check on Shinso. You cheer on your sister and prepare yourself for your next match.”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ9q6kdjonp
Izuku: “R-Right. Thank you, All Might.”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW24wl6huI1
The boy waved goodbye to his idol turned mentor. When he was out of sight, Izuku sighed. Bringing his mind back together and rejecting those low rumblings within, he steps towards his classmates.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6k2hLjboSY
Mina: “Oh, Midoriya!”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl5G5uaZDTO
The entire class snaps their heads towards the boy, who instantly freezes.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnH3935yilZ
Izuku: “H-Hey-”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCAkUOP0eLG
Several of the more worried and curious classmates bolted towards him. The questions came one after the other. All of them, however, boiled down to a single concern. What did Izuku do to Shinso, and are they both okay?”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2IHY1gfnkv
Before Izuku could answer, Momo came to the front.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡacrLftQHEN
Momo: “Midoriya, you don’t have to answer if you don’t feel comfortable. We trust you.”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1GteoMbbef
Uraraka: “Yeah! But we would still like to know.”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdMCBRogLRG
Denki: “For curiosity’s sake.”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3QDfSKzfP7
Izuku: “T-Thanks e-everyone. Don’t worry, I’ll tell you what I know.”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKRJUJRSMaM
And so Izuku explained what he discussed with his family. After hearing the story, they all sighed in relief.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ6IzDGlDXv
Ida: “I knew you were not someone who would do something like that on purpose. I’m glad I was not wrong.”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1aYAHHnoSt
Mina: “Yeah, looks like Bakugo was right.”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdxRc5Wvwj4
Izuku: “Kacchan?”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjHCezFZxcF
Kirishima: “Yeah, he actually defended you when we were worried. Crazy, huh?”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOyf2ZlnDeL
Izuku’s eyes widened and his heart lifted when he heard that. He looked past his friends to see Bakugo, who kept his gaze on the arena.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWaMs3Rtjx1
Izuku: ‘Is he… changing?’
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxYMI6CBKAU
Denki: “Wait a minute!”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDkUgCGqKtR
Thunder Boy held his hands up before getting everyone back to what’s really important.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbMLLOWJDPJ
Denki: “Midoriya, are you telling us you spent days training with Yaoyorozu? At her house? Alone!?”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEXl6sbfTUn
Izuku: “Y-Yes?”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlbyjAWe46h
Denki: “You lucky bas-”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgm3thp6sGJ
His words are cut short by a stab to the neck by Jiro’s ear jacks.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVKbgnx83Dk
Denki: “gah!”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW8mCqWkDYk
Jiro: “Idiot.”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfOBnDnO2WA
The group laughed, which slowly helped Izuku put himself back together. As for Momo, she tried to fight down the blush that graced her cheeks.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4FrqhKGWp9
Momo: ‘Now that Kaminari mentioned it, that was rather bold of me. If Midoriya were a different type of boy, we may have-’
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUVFAQtBCjY
Tokoyami: “The next match is starting.”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOC6zDCFTsY
They look at Tokoyami, who was sitting down already, prepared to view the next match.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlAuilIZK2y
Kirishima: “Right! I don’t want to miss this!”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFvfSEsOS3U
The class went back to their seats, and Izuku joined them. To his surprise, he was in between two girls. Uraraka to his left and Momo to his right.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOeJeJYCzS1
Knowing which voice would comment, he immediately shut it down and focused on the match instead.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFrLfWo1dtM
Izuku: ‘Good luck, Kiri. I know you can do this.’
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKPsRwTWExr
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk8dzffv3P0
Present Mic: “And here we are, folks, MATCH THREE!! Will this one be just as brief as the last two? Let’s find out!”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxNZKVLg09K
Kiri steps to the stage and faces her opponent, Aoi Nogami.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtfJkE1rsKg
Present Mic: “On one side, we have the silent and incredibly strong girl from the department of heroics, class 1-A, Kiri Tae!!”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXQT7HGiB3l
Present Mic: “Her opponent! The girl who stole victory with a single move during the obstacle race. The teleporter from the department of heroics, class 1-B, Aoi Nogami!”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2IOsLMADyo
Aoi: “Sad to say, this match will be quick too.”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡre5xoeOHTX
Present Mic: “REAAAADYYYYY!?”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjGkzYYgi8O
Kiri didn’t respond; she got into a fighting position and readied herself.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0YPU8GduVr
Kiri: ‘Onii, watch me!’
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT5m9x4rK7d
Present Mic: “START!”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5YFFJzWAEB
Instantly, Aoi teleports in front of Kiri and tries to touch her. Sensing danger, Kiri dodges right on time and dashes to the other side of the arena. The dash, however, was messy, tearing up the ground with every step.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBzDLkBMSIV
Present Mic: “Oh, will we have a real fight here, folks!?”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfe84HDaQwK
If Kiri could sweat, she would be drenched. She tightens her stance and narrows her gaze.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPwNBs67dKw
Aoi: “So you figured me out, huh? Yeah, one touch is all I need. And I have a feeling, one day, I won’t even need to do that.”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡscTdZsxLMb
Again, Aoi was gone. Only thanks to her acute senses was Kiri able to dodge another palm strike from behind. But Aoi didn’t stop; she teleported everywhere Kiri went.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2guMFimUmA
But Kiri was too fast physically to be tagged by Aoi. At this point, this was nothing but a game of tag. One that could go on for hours.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJySbmpB80b
Present Mic: “Wow! I can barely keep up with these two! But this can’t go on forever; who will be the first to trip up!?”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2g2U6kJ4Gi
He was right; someone had to take a risk if they wanted this to end. With that in mind, Aoi was the first to try something crazy. She wanted to wait to try this against one of the stronger physical fighters, like Bakugo or Todoroki.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRcG9CIufB8
But clearly, Kiri was a physical powerhouse as well.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ4c8JPcGFU
Aoi: ‘Oh, well. Here goes nothing.’
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAGiUZZe2Ob
The esper breaks off her assault and teleports to the edge of the arena. Kiri was confused for a second but quickly guessed that Aoi might finally be tired.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTmxnhb3a3H
So she goes on the offensive, dashing forward with fist raised, ready to knock the girl out.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrr7HX9VMft
But Aoi wasn’t tired; no, she was focusing. She placed her hands on the stage and willed her desire into existence. Veins emerged on her forehead just as Kiri was in front of her.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIfZs8X9gtX
But before the blow landed, both her and the stage disappeared.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeUugWY8Taw
Everyone: “HUUUUUH!”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcLpILoyZy5
Present Mic: “S-S-She teleported the entire stage high into the sky!!”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOshvvYRlCi
Kiri’s eyes widen as she sees the green grass feet away. She was… going to lose?
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrmZD91DSLf
Kiri: ‘No!’
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT2U5RAOESC
Her brain went into overdrive, desperate for an answer to her problem. A split second later, the conclusion revealed itself. It was a side of her ability that she hasn’t used often.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7uAYAplSur
Her ability is tactile telekinesis, the ability to use telekinesis on things she touches. It’s what gives Kiri her immense physical power and near-complete body control.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJzeltBMGlH
But aside from her body, what else is she always touching but never uses telekinesis on?
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu9Nuw4Mkup
Kiri: “SMAASH!!”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl5GuXkIzUh
Air.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjSZUDDcTxo
An explosion of wind and smoke envelops the ground as Kiri is propelled into the air by the force of her attack. In fact, she kind of overshot it!
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyAHc9qN20G
She shot straight through the stage, shattering it into several large pieces.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn8pqs2boaN
Aoi: “Shoot!”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8TtOG9jK5f
Aoi teleports out of the way of the rumble. As for the spectators, they were saved when green energy enveloped the rumble and carefully lowered it onto the ground, away from the stunned Midnight.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhcDUwO7mTA
Present Mic: “Thank you, Tornado, for saving the spectators and Midnight!”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6odq2f0QD3
Tatsumaki nods before sitting back down to watch the conclusion of this surprising match.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡakbuLD3ufY
Present Mic: “I swear, kids these days are crazy! With no stage, it looks like this is a battle for the air. Whoever touches the ground first LOSES!!”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaK8wdzWaMS
Seeing a chance to end this madness, Aoi senses the space where Kiri is at and teleports there. Kiri quickly rights herself and hits the air once again. The explosion of air was enough to blow Aoi back, disorienting her.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuMOOUleZ0w
Seeing an opening, Kiri kicks off the air and tackles Aoi.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxuIoYAhIJo
Aoi: “Ugh!”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXSP5H6Ipx4
They’re both quickly heading to a meeting with the hard ground.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVRIjafZY0q
Seeing this, Aoi teleports back up. But Kiri is still stuck to her like glue. This was it, the dead end.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh6zqYXuvjM
She could keep teleporting, but Kiri wouldn’t let go, and Aoi can’t break out of the hold.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2JkxtO3C0O
Kiri: “Give. Up.”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe1wGCca7kK
Aoi closes her eyes and sighs.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjC88F5oyrN
Aoi: “Okay, you win.”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSpvk7h3Mrp
With one last teleport, the two appear, standing on the grass.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1suENlNdTW
Aoi: “I give.”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEVuiMVI8G6
Midnight: “N-Nogami surrenders! Tae advances to round two!”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Jca0J2MOJ
With the results in, Kiri lets go of Aoi.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqQA5i2bk13
Aoi: “Man, you have a tight grip. Thanks for the match.”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7AR6fueZwo
Aoi holds out her hand, and Kiri smiles before taking it.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ35ZhaDcNyL
Present Mic: “Such sportsmanship and utter destruction! We haven’t seen a battle like that since Blizzard versus Psykos! And I have a feeling it will only get better from here! So stay tuned! Right now, we need to repair the stage.”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxViSxQ94gh
Aoi teleports back to her team while Kiri looks up at her classmates, specifically Izuku, and gives them the biggest smile she could give along with a peace sign.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb5Pj034g3d
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZgEsEPJ7Df
Denki: “You want to fight that?!”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9UQwzaNUGi
Kirishima nervously chuckles.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZiEc03uPVo
Kirishima: “I have a long way to go. But yeah, I still want to show how far I’ve come as a fighter.”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpMtXXP4h5B
Denki: “Bro, are you an M?”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfZdO72bF6y
As the rest of his class discusses the short but explosive battle, Izuku keeps his gaze on Kiri. Unlike everyone else, he heard what was beyond that smile.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBGXgcxsObZ
Kiri: “Izu, you’re not the only dangerous one. Even if you can’t control it yet, you can practice with me. I can take it all and help you through it. I’m strong. I’ll prove it to you.”
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd1bOUG80qz
Izuku: ‘I know you’re strong, Kiri. But… ’
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlJOeyKsbRF
He shakes the depressing thoughts away. This is a festival, right? Everyone should be having fun.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdaRKXzQauN
Izuku: ‘Relax… focus on something else. Like how Kiri used her quirk. Or the abilities Nogami showed. Or how different and similar psychic quirks are. Or-’
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0I4iaVqRg1
Good thing Izuku always has a notebook at the ready, because his mind is finally focused on something fun. Quirk analysis.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkA1vp9XeMT
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Jf0GJBSuO
Back in the nurse’s office, a new breed was stirring. On the bed, his body snaps into its final state. No, this is just the first step. He can go so much higher.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfAsBbzgVRe
His eyes flutter open, releasing a soft purple and gold glow. But before anyone could notice, it settled back into its normal state.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwLi0K8rU5O
But despite outward appearances, his eyes were different. They were better. All his senses were better. The world looked and felt different.
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv0ZjLxYbAK
He was different. But why and how?
281Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDQjH5sW4Pc
Shinso was finally awake, and he needed answers.
