Here they stand, on the rooftop across from one another. Izuku and Kaoru were in their hero costumes, ready for the battle at hand. But unlike Izuku’s armor, Kaoru’s costume looks like the school uniform if it were stylish and had a medium-sized cape.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6KwbA0oYo9
Fubuki: “Please don’t damage the roof. That’s not an expense I want to pay right now.”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTv5RdC36sx
Izuku glances up at his sisters, who are observing in the sky.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZCdxkoUIXi
Tatsumaki: “A nice additional challenge.”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXJvQq9Tixp
Izuku: ‘Right, because we won’t be able to throw rubble at each other. Have to be creative.’
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQkR0fnU9Ha
Kaoru: “No problem. So, are you ready?”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3FbJ1mPNLi
Izuku: “Yes.”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjWflEJkbto
Tatsumaki: “Tournament rules. If you are knocked off the roof, you lose.”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDtnJjukbX6
Fubuki: “Start.”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxR1TLGOIDY
Immediately, Izuku felt a pulse in his mind. A gentle knock showing him that Fubuki will be bugging him throughout this whole fight.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyiIaWD8J2U
Thanks to that, he only barely prevented himself from being blown off the roof by a psychic push.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIPXXeH6IdS
Fubuki: “While I occasionally poke your mind, try to do the same with Kaoru. This will help with your focus and your ability to mentally affect others during a fight without… you know.”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4FMol2nsIX
Izuku: “R-Right!”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ50fxmRBXJQ
Izuku: ‘Easier said than done, though.’
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc6GszseWQb
Due to the circumstances, Izuku had little choice but to play defensively. Kaoru was throwing air bullets and trying her best to literally trip Izuku up.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3gfUgsoTil
But he dodged the bullets and righted himself before he face-planted. All the while, he kept eye contact with Kaoru, who was smiling at her apparent domination of the fight. That’s until-
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiATjQqKNJK
Izuku: “Behind you.”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhOkrnsYs22
Hearing Izuku’s voice in her head, Kaoru stopped her assault for a moment, enough for the emerald esper to-
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlFZbKnCdBj
Pulse.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJUcnyK9ZSR
Teleport to the wrong location, above Kaoru.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1jw7xJwevH
Kaoru: “What the-”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf4uzT8yE1k
Izuku collapses on her, causing them to both fall to the ground in a… somewhat scandalous position.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCPEhOc08mX
Kaoru: “W-What are you… g-get off!”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhqmsYoPv80
Izuku: “S-Sor-”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLeyKyf7Rgr
Unable to finish, he was blasted into the air and again-
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMXIpyl8nUB
Pulse.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6YG0sdANNn
His mind is assaulted with a familiar knock. Focus broken, he was unable to stop Kaoru from binding his body with a telekinetic hold.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGIREzDwqFP
Sensing an immediate ring out, Izuku tried to gather enough to break the binding. But he couldn’t focus because of the pulse.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrHIgWi1WBE
No… it was strangely weak before that. Deep down, he knows why but refuses to acknowledge the cause. So instead, he shifts tactics.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsWv48bVR18
He waits for Kaoru to fling him towards a ring out, that one moment when her psychic hold disappears, letting gravity do the rest.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJLX32Q3gUs
When the moment came, he forced himself to teleport back to the starting position. But when he reemerged, he felt nauseous.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDRFTZPwXGu
Holding his mouth, he pushed the sensation down-
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7bGgFA6JSe
Pulse.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPFqniccXlQ
Izuku: “Ugh.”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUXedOBya1d
He placed a weak psychic barrier up to protect himself from Kaoru’s telekinetic push. But the effort was enough to force him to one knee. Seeing his weakened state, Kaoru only pushed harder while walking towards him.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSBfJkVf628
Karou: “Wow, this is easier than I thought. What’s wrong? Do you think you can beat me without trying or something? Or is the handicap that bad?”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhpEVOZaycl
Fubuki: “Maybe she’s right, I’ll sto-”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9GyKrssE3f
Izuku: “No!”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCZQqfAeqVW
His sister’s eyes widen as her brother’s voice come through a bit distorted.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjmFRML7e4S
Izuku: “Don’t hold back, I can keep going. I will overcome this.”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsNH79lDG36
The middle child takes a look at Tatsumaki before making a decision. Her face was blank but focused on the match. She couldn’t help but wonder how Tatsumaki would feel if Izuku lost.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkcPz3uZEJC
Fubuki: ‘Would she be disappointed with him too?’
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1VYoGUPE7p
Not wanting to test that out, she decided to lie. This will be the last one.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuoYXvW2vmR
Fubuki: “… Very well.”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaVlpyhgz78
Pulse.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHKp9L2HpZs
And the shield buckles further.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRJlCR8Og9J
Izuku: “T-Thank you.”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYlMZGpY7Gp
His mind is a mess, confused and unfocused, making the use of his quirk overwhelmingly difficult.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCodNdrzIN0
But that doesn’t mean he can’t use it. He just has to be a bit reckless. He breathes in and reverses his psychic shield’s properties.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA8t25Vz0Yb
Screw finesse, that takes too much focus. So even if it causes veins to pop on his head and blood to flow out his nose, he will go full force. Just in the opposite direction.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMvUuMlF9KS
Instead of repelling, the shield draws everything in. Combined with Kaoru’s pushing, it produced enough force to pull the girl towards Izuku.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmnJ17yuz1i
Drawn in by her and Izuku’s psychic power, Kaoru was yanked forward with a bewildered face. Right into Izuku’s waiting arms.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0BptEdkNrY
Within range, Izuku bear-hugged her. It doesn’t take much thought to squeeze with his enhanced strength.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7uiJ0rwLfo
Kaoru: “Gugh!”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ48ukcfhnjZ
Izuku: “Give… up!”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfrLb7I9s9J
Oh, she wants to. The combined pressure of the psychic compression and super bear hug would break the spine of a normal human. But this is Kaoru, the one who will someday surpass Tatsumaki. This is only the first step!
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwTKf3i8OOr
So she uses all her strength to push outward, against the crushing force. Her body lights up pinkish red, and Izuku is forced to close his eyes, but he doesn’t let go.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM30TSO6sOc
Instead, his focus is improving over time without being assaulted by the pulses. But his psychic strength is still not on Kaoru’s level right now; his grip is slowly being loosened.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0x3VNLdrCX
And if she gets loose or another pulse comes in, Izuku fears that he’ll lose.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhnrZZEqMml
But he has to win to prove to himself that he can succeed without relying on that part of himself. But despite that desire, he is forced to use a tactic dangerously close to The First.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuZZQa6bsT5
He slams his head into Kaoru and sacrifices some of the psychic power behind the crushing force. All to use a mental attack, a command.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlMljnZmoM7
Izuku: “Sleep!”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKCNhWF0OeV
A second later, Kaoru’s eyes roll back as she falls unconscious. But her psychic power doesn’t just disappear, no, it explodes outwards as the crushing force was now weak enough to overpower.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiYMMJF6u2h
Kaoru falls to the ground, while Izuku is pushed off the roof. Exhausted, the boy was unable to properly fly up or teleport back to safety.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNpvRlJl4Qn
Before he can panic, green energy caught him and gently brought him back to the roof.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsLFzVFOfRD
Tatsumaki and Fubuki descend to the ground, worry etched on their faces. Fubuki gets out some tissues and wipes the blood off of Izuku.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTtOHiOF0uY
Tatsumaki: “Are you alright?”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPcmWwGmR3e
Izuku: “I-I’m fine. You don’t have to worry.”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGw21x4k7SF
The eldest looks at her brother and then at the sleeping Kaoru.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO1Xa2DhigD
Tatsumaki: “You were knocked off the roof, but you knocked Kaoru out before that. I guess we can count it as a tie.”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiDS5GCamGU
Fubuki: “And that’s fine.”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqh9ht19lQF
The eldest couldn’t help but glance at Izuku and narrow her eyes ever so slightly.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLJlyWJ5hUq
Tatsumaki: “… I suppose.”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAfFsG13E2e
Again, she looks back toward Kaoru and replays the fight in her mind. Then she recounts all the battles Izuku has had up until this point and the abilities he has learned. Sighing, she goes to her sitting brother and kneels before him.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0kq9QhdYaA
She looks deep into his eyes, trying to figure out the puzzle behind them.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Nb6MVX8x3
Izuku: “T-Tatsu?”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1T5bTLx6bt
Fubuki: “What is it? Is something wrong with Izu?”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmpn0mCOdS7
Tatsumaki: “That’s what I want to know.”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5m8FTPPUtr
Izuku: “W-What are you t-talking about?”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDPqbrCf5Sl
Tatsumaki: “I know Fubuki was messing with your head, but… I know you’re stronger than this. You weren’t holding back, right?”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi8wyogJMFs
Izuku: “N-No, of course not!”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2RZT2kEHoT
Tatsumaki: “Then what’s wrong?
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4fgJeUrKbE
Before Izuku could even think of revealing everything, Fubuki got up and glared at her big sister.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtKuvJrr1ZN
Fubuki: “There’s nothing wrong with Izu. He was distracted with my mental probing, nothing more.”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT2PDrSlQfc
Tatsumaki: “And? I know he can handle that. Besides, he didn’t use his psi sword or transmutation. He shouldn’t have struggled this much.”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiiqTbQ9uGg
Fubuki: “That’s unreasonable; you expect too much.”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrq3yZUEjdZ
Tatsumaki: “And you expect too little.”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn5TxiCaGbw
A slip of mixed frustration escapes from the building chamber within the younger.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHKYGrItd6D
Fubuki: “Stop trying to push your high expectations on Izu!”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWMiiJfCsgw
Matching the energy given, Tatsumaki gets up and floats above Fubuki.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZlptNlb0wT
Tatsumaki: “My expectations are not high! You’re the one who doesn’t seem to have faith in our brother! He has to become stronger!”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqjUhOkGcpq
As things took an unexpected and heated turn, Izuku went from confused to worried and finally landed on upset.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXorI9FYosk
Izuku: “Enough!”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡikNCiD1FvI
The sisters stop, and their glares soften for a moment before turning to their precious little brother.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7cdGhATuGc
Izuku: “Please, don’t argue over me. Fubuki is right. I-I was just distracted by the mental pulses. Nothing to worry about; I am going to get stronger. Trust me. Now, apologize.”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqb8qtCUQTO
The two sisters turn to each other, an apology on their lips. But whether due to pride or insecurity, they are unable to say it.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAxfv9S1c6G
Tatsumaki & Fubuki: “Hmph!”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcvMENMiekg
Izuku: ‘I’ve never seen them argue like this. And of course, it’s because of me… ’
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHn5o7QUkQb
Again, he thinks about telling them everything he told Kiri. She accepted him; they will too, surely. The question is timing.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMVOglKG2Qs
As the trio cools down, they hear some shuffling behind them.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgBqLNZdoW6
Kaoru: “Ugh, what happened? Did I lose?”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWXnEkPgOME
Tatsumaki: “Tie.”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHWfUlKNSC7
Fubuki: “You knocked Izuku off the roof while he knocked you out.”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBTDgwfkQLK
Kaoru: “But how? The last thing I remember was the bear hug, and then… I felt sleepy.”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ66E3U7dU2l
Izuku: “I-I-I’m sorry! I didn’t want to lose, so I tried something invasive a-and… mentally told your body it was time to sleep.”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡesIKicY40u
Fubuki: ‘A mental command? Something else to try.’
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUPOCId6BG2
Kaoru: “Whoa, that’s kind of… scary.”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs3ZEw7Au3f
Tatsumaki: “Relax, Izu would never abuse it. Besides, you have a psychic quirk; you should be able to build defenses against it over time.”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9IJCVaphlR
Kaoru: “Great! When do we start?”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdYwV13piEL
Fubuki: “Later, that’s enough psychic training for one day.”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡse13HT2BFM
Tatsumaki: “Of course you’d say that.”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY0KInBdEd6
Fubuki ignored that whispered comment and walked towards the exit.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡejhQkXgghW
Fubuki: “Right now, we should go inside and see if Emory is awake too. I don’t want to neglect her.”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRCVPLjmBQE
Kaoru and Tatsumaki follow Fubuki while Izuku pulls himself up.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCG1b2Z1Z3Y
Izuku: “Fubuki, I have a favor to ask.”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB1bg6sQcfj
The middle child turns back, letting Tatsu and Kaoru enter the building first.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnrf7gvKsao
Fubuki: “Yes?”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2uzYSeUi2T
Izuku: “I-I might be wrong, but don’t internships allow for students to spend the night at the agency? I would like to do that so I can start training as soon as possible.”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ294lol24kK
Fubuki: “… Alright, just don’t work yourself too hard. You’re still young, Izu; don’t beat yourself up if you don’t meet expectations right away.”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡahSnFucbbZ
Izuku: “I won’t, but the villains-”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzgNmmpP6dV
Fubuki: “Me and Tatsu will deal with them. You don’t have to worry about them. Okay?”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj04EE7azEH
Izuku: “… I understand.”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUmFxWERn7w
Fubuki: “Good, now call Mom and tell her you’re staying over.”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZFaVfvJmqL
After nodding, the boy takes out his phone and calls Inko. She quickly picks it up.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9vscZNHSO1
Inko: “Hello, Izu! How are you and Fubuki?”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV3mVfvYUeU
Fubuki: “Tell her I said hi.”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyjSIQipcdh
Izuku: “We’re fine, and Fubuki says hi.”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMriFeLjsRm
Inko: “Aww, tell her I said hi too. So, why are you calling?”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡapDZQ4BVre
Izuku: “I’m planning on staying the night with Fubuki’s agency. I wanted to let you know.”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoqjYZmavMV
Inko: “Oh, that? Toshi told me that was a possibility. Have fun!”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCqQMqVaeQ3
A blink.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5awTweYwS2
Another blink?
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB2LQIG1TC2
Inko: “Izuku?”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2JqEhnf2mS
Izuku: “T-Toshi?”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFdynvneYf1
Inko: “O-Oh, d-did I say that?”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbYHCH5oDuK
Izuku: “Yes.”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEi3QHhfGXi
Inko: “W-Well, I-I guess I forgot to tell you that Toshinori and I h-have been meeting up. F-For progress reports! On you. That is.”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJVTxzVjsib
…
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHxb1OAHImV
Inko: “H-Honey?”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3iP64K8ESn
Izuku: “Speak to you soon.”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6sU76mUkkn
Fubuki could tell something was wrong when Izuku hung up so coldly.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZlQq7A1VHn
Fubuki: “Izu, what’s wrong?”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuhxL8jmfPW
He looks to his sister with steel in his eyes.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYdQVS1c8Na
Izuku: “Assemble the family.”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIwyb40FO6M
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX9krZ7zbWl
Kiri’s face turns cold as she gets up from her position. Compromised, she didn’t see a point in hiding and transformed into her Valkyrie persona.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFbHxRCGtsZ
Edgeshot: “Nice to meet you again.”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWPwfKtkD1j
Valkyrie: “Now what? Will you try to take me in for being a hero?”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdmd6VCR3dP
Edgeshot: “You are a vigilante.”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnzkQMDs4cM
Valkyrie: “I help people.”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUcj0We20Fm
Edgeshot: “Scared them more like. What you did to those quirk beasts-”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNiaCapGDDE
Valkyrie: “Was angry, and I wouldn’t do that to humans.”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVywZpfVfS6
Edgeshot: “… Based on your past work, I believe that. If it weren’t for Nezu, I would attempt to bring you in.”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5lwO2sgYki
Valkyrie: “You won’t… fight me?”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk8GkKgWzus
Her guard lowers ever so slightly; it would be enough for Edgeshot to quickly subdue her. In her Valkyrie form, she’s likely stronger and has a greater reach, but that’s something the pro hero can overcome if needed.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQqkiVTU6yr
Good thing it’s not.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGAiNsNBxXn
Edgeshot: “No. I was one of the few who noticed the camera footage and would have tried to take you in. It did seem like you infiltrated U.A, but the principal explained things.”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU94FUjoFg6
Valkyrie: “Then why bring it up?”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvFJOpjbf2u
Edgeshot: “To warn you to be more careful. Not everyone will know the principal or be as understanding as me. But more than that… ”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTVLOgkfxuJ
Kiri could hear it: changes in the environment.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHjSPh6hloW
Valkyrie: ‘Traps? All over?’
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7EuWhJKY7n
Edgeshot: “I understand what you are, but it is hard to believe. On the off chance you managed to trick everyone, I’ll make sure to keep a close eye on you.”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI1yCApVQMt
Valkyrie: “… Nh. Can I go now?”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLnrvz4G93T
Edgeshot: “Yes.”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi79CcG2ia4
Transforming back to her normal form, Kiri walks past Edgeshot and enters the elevator. When she pressed the button for the bottom floor, she released the breath she was holding.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBsELgkZmuK
Kiri: “Dangerous. As expected.”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp3Chb8Ldo1
Besides her sisters, Edgeshot was one of the heroes she tried to avoid when she was just Valkyrie. It seems like that was the right choice.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0kl3HkhJ7Y
As Kiri regained her footing, her phone rang. After a moment trying to remember how those things work, she answered with a smile. Izuku was calling after all.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRh3pz9ZYDo
Kiri: “Yes, Izu.”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJx353OjqdD
After a moment, she nodded her head. This is some serious business, but despite that, she smiled. For now, she could be with her family for a while.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMt3DW4hAqs
Kiri: “Okay, I’m coming.”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkKLOUpU0xv
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAFZUSARIWL
An Hour Later
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ23vNQdJWwM
Toshinori was just leaving the grocery store and walking out to his car. Once he entered the car, he drove off into the street. He stopped at a red light that illuminated the inside of his car. He looked up into the rearview mirror…
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnCDfXEC47V
… and saw the Midoriya children in the backseat.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOqJ9mQpqXO
Izuku: “Good evening, All Might.”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDmxqRruhvD
All Might: “AAAAAHHH!”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu2FOfmJiMN
The hero panicked and swerved off the road into a nearby lot. He stomped on the brakes and sat there trying to catch his breath.
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj6rIug6UxP
Fubuki: “Or should we say-”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNfGUUz4g4h
Tatsumaki: “Toshi.”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNkbn9YDRkE
Kiri: “Bad man.”
40Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4g8j3gcq74
All Might: “… I can explain.”
