Before the exercise ended, Bakugo woke up in the nurse’s office. His head still hurts a bit. Whoever hit him is going to pay, but first, he needs to take stock of his location.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBET3pyBm9m
To his right was a snoring Kirishima. He was a bit banged up, but he seemed fine. But to his left was…Deku.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0wNYGJ6Csz
He looks fine, but for whatever reason, he’s still unconscious. But for once, he’s not his focus. It was his girlfriend who was staring daggers at him.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGhR4Ir0CsV
Now it was clear who knocked him out.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4BDtrUQV60
Bakugo: “You!”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQmPj97FjDD
Kiri: “Me.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTj39jopBg9
Before Bakugo could start something, the door opened to reveal Recovery Girl.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ20qWB6OIHB
Recovery Girl: “No! No fighting in my office, do you two understand?!”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiC8TPBWKqs
Bakugo: “Tch.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmFWEYg2ReE
Kiri: “Fine.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡagVRSkjX3l
Recovery Girl: “Good grief. Instead of being ready to fight, you should be counting your blessings. You could’ve been in a far worse state.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡebYiaeciMh
Bakugo: “Ha, Deku was the one in danger. I won our fight!”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXTjMiX40K0
Kiri: “No, you didn’t.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeodh1YXs6h
Bakugo: “What the fuck did you say, ghost girl!?”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKcagHKa2nA
Kiri: “That you’re a sore loser, bomb boy.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF6yKEjwFXO
Bakugo: “Why you-”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTdLH0fdsEy
Recovery Girl: “She’s right, you know. You might have died if not for Midoriya.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpYBga8fwT0
Bakugo: “What the hell are you talking about!? I won our fight! I was barely damaged!”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxKjCB6AVlf
Recovery Girl: “That’s because he shielded you during the clash.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaNGL8iYcNp
His eyes became pinpricks as she said that. It…couldn’t be.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcsCVIHjrre
Bakugo: ‘He… what?’
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzJVvz778kv
Recovery Girl: “I was also watching the battles, and a few seconds before the explosion, a green shield enveloped you.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq79eFAtTSD
Bakugo: “No… why would he-”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQhgLRAUJWj
Kiri: “You don’t deserve his kindness. You’re no better than a villain, lower than scum. You’re the one who deserves to di-”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR3CJI9LWF5
Recovery Girl: “Let’s not be so hasty to wish death on another, Tae. He’s still just a kid.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Q7xCtBATl
Kiri: “…No excuses.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQbGmNlqgLc
The fact Recovery Girl is speaking to Kiri as if she’s an adult didn’t register. Instead, it was the cold hard facts of the battle.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpv3eC8k5Or
Bakugo: ‘If that’s true, then… I didn’t win. Not even close.’
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSfXPex1xRH
Bakugo: ‘Despite going all out, I-I… lost to… Deku!?’
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLTfyY2iBa9
The young boy began to hyperventilate. The world didn’t make sense anymore. Even when he’s a pebble, even when Bakugo beats on him, Deku refuses to give up or leave him be.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkvuySyq1dT
Yet again, Deku shows concern for him when he doesn’t need it.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuGyrz9K71E
Or deserve it.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡab0xmvj0gj
He can’t accept that stray thought, not yet. Instead, one cornerstone is crumbling.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2cDhRKjo5l
Bakugo: ‘He’s… not a pebble anymore.’
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpcMWrAXfSP
This fact is undeniable. Deku is no longer a mere pebble but a peer, a proper obstacle in his path.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ3HJhqSPWo
But with a quirk like his, with his rate of growth, won’t their positions reverse?
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM4UBevVfgB
The idea of being a pebble to the one he once disregarded and, at one time, cared for as a weak but loyal friend, it was too much.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfDLK4vOrcj
If not for Recovery Girl’s words, he would have shattered.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1pU6CO0OzQ
Recovery Girl: “It would seem the exercise has concluded with the villain's victory, and everyone is returning to class. You are free to join them for the review.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1bWILEEG0l
Bakugo escaped his self-destructive spiral, but he had little strength to do much else. He got up, walked out, headed to the classroom and sat at his desk.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkiukbuqtCt
In silence.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5LgZ4CADe7
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH2bPKOWPSn
Phoenix: “Here you are, again.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡELkMYN3MCg
Izuku was floating in a void filled with stars and again looked up at those enormous green orbs.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ2RSHmRNt9
Izuku: “Haha, I guess Kacchan’s attack was stronger than I thought.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrFQ2e1RXu8
Phoenix: “You weren’t damaged that badly.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg6rsavNo4l
Izuku: “Then… why am I here? Is there something wrong?”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFKZSu60xQC
Phoenix: “Not at the moment. Just a small concern.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5XOyBDiuwW
Izuku: “What?”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsXT2JYxKlQ
Phoenix: “Why did you defend that child?”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxQBS6DsHm2
Izuku: “Because… despite everything, I still don’t want to severely hurt Kacchan. I was… unsure if I could fully control Psi Explosion.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCxfqies3bp
Phoenix: “So it’s okay for him to severely harm you?”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuWvLfQNDDT
Izuku: “…”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsVmmQqe6HD
Phoenix: “For what is coming, you’ll need to know which bridges to cross and which to burn. You must avoid baggage. The enemy will use it against you.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHEbSGun29l
Izuku: “Kacchan is not baggage! Besides, what enemy are you talking about? Is it some villain?”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUwZGARk8SK
Phoenix: “In a way. I foresee villains of this world will play a major role in what is come. But the future is ever shifting. You must be ready. Continue to grow strong; I’m counting on you.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡblbGWZGjYu
Izuku: “R-Right.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrCWnRYzmYF
Like before, the space begins to shake and collapse.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ztt2Pg1XG
It’s time to wake up.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkIXXA8qHjX
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSQP0jJj5U1
It took all she had to stop herself. It would be so easy to pop his head open like a-
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn4N7D507Ht
No! That’s not heroic!
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp3fklwXhg6
But he hurt onii-chan! MY ONII-CHAN!
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5MUyVPO3B0
Kiri placed a hand on her forehead; it ached with some foreign emotion. But as she looked down at her beloved, it eased. As long as she was with him, and he accepted her, she would be happy.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Ovo0a4VHm
Nothing else mattered.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEzsyttTPYI
She stroked his hair and smiled. She loved him. She really did.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx6dfKgtrHa
Then that strange feeling emerged in her chest again, stronger and more positive this time. It was warm and pleasant. Her eyes wandered to his lips, and an urge to touch them with her own slipped into her mind.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvVmEOYHn60
She didn’t know why or what this meant. But she wanted to do it. So she slowly leaned down and closed her eyes.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi3grNd3EvG
Izuku: “Mmmm.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsi1WChOhRt
For whatever reason, Kiri quickly backed away when she heard him waking up.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7FHGHmQNmt
Kiri: “I-Izuku?”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGRFEItjWLh
Izuku: “Kiri, where am I? And… why are you blushing?”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7LhBymOheL
Kiri: “Blushing?”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ69TqTa3nb7
Izuku: “Your face is red.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaXzhJnCDYS
Kiri: “I-I don’t know.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKv9ADXmB2M
Recovery Girl: “You’re finally awake; good. Everyone is waiting for you in the classroom.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjRGC6f847U
The two looked at Recovery Girl, who was sitting on a chair nearby. Whether she saw what Kiri was going to do, is unknown.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaeGzSbWM3Y
Izuku: “So the exercise is over? Who won?”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJWSP4k9dqC
Recovery Girl: “Villains.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKbppeAo8i7
Izuku: “O-Oh.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGSnuD5Xl5y
Kiri could already feel him blaming himself. She grabbed his hand.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA42f5XDIJa
Kiri: “It’s not your fault.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGGoekyR4l5
Izuku: “But if I tried harder and beat Kacchan… ”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡApc7qYWBrB
Kiri: “Doesn’t… mean you should blame yourself. You did the best you could. Exercise… a team effort. Shouldn’t… carry all the burden.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgRGD5pusfd
Izuku smiles at her, a sight that deepens the red in her cheeks.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH3f9u157P4
Izuku: “Thank you, Kiri.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbu52rOpl1L
She feels his thumb rub the top of her hand. She returns the smile and suppresses the urge to touch his lips again.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV6KUfjdd2E
Recovery Girl: “Aw, you two are adorable.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIxKfdk8ba0
Kiri: “Nh.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTrOHzFqPQT
Izuku doesn’t even try to argue this time. He’ll clear it up soon, but right now he should get back to class.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp8WAUgM5Wf
Izuku: “So we’re free to go?”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOP1guuBWKh
Recovery Girl: “Yep, your flames did most of the work. It’s actually strange that you didn’t wake up sooner.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxEHGdGDVcO
Izuku: “Haha, y-yeah, strange. Let’s go, Kiri.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnM4ZRkB1QF
Kiri: “Nh.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4p8ldO22J9
The two left the office and began the short walk back to class. All the while, Kiri held onto Izuku’s hand. But, she wanted more. So she leaned her head on his shoulder, nuzzling it.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo3XnDiqg6A
Izuku: “You’re being very… affectionate.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKb66GjjjqD
Kiri: “Nh. I… like it. Do… you?”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX0R6iPAgzd
Izuku: “I… don’t mind it. But I don’t want the misunderstanding to continue.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm6bpd3qpSQ
Kiri: “…Would it…be so bad?”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkoJOQHGfNM
Izuku: “Kiri, we talked about this.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0q7F4YaOHg
Kiri: “…I know. But… at home?”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQTxqwle1Ay
Izuku sighed but accepted her proposal. There’s nothing wrong with simple affectionate gestures between siblings. What’s the worst that can happen?
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0gxkLxY6xp
Izuku: “That’s fine.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3xRMDLqH6a
Kiri: “… Okay.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfXB37ALCM8
She can accept that, for now. So she removes her hand and head from her beloved onii-chan. The warmth was gone but only for a while. The school day was almost over after all.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmtezzQZzsz
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpDwDOHNJT2
After remembering to change back into their school uniforms, the duo opened the door to the classroom. Everyone was sitting down except for Aizawa, who seemed ready to leave.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTOv7pXNuZm
Aizawa: “Finally here, sit down.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbKtSdUAb13
Izuku could tell some people wanted to talk to him. Either about the epic fight or just because they were worried. But Aizawa’s presence shut that stuff down; he wanted to get this done and go to sleep.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeDmsGX4e2S
Aizawa: “I saw the footage and took the liberty of looking at all of your evaluations. You can look at them at your own time, but there are some things to discuss.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKUa9pqEkoE
Aizawa: “First, who do you all did the best in this exercise?”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ84Y2FIpuv8
“Yaoyorozu!”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRKS506Dge1
Momo: “Achoo!”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhn3Us8bJu7
The answer was immediate. So much so, that the now-sick Momo couldn’t register it right away.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡukDeOl5kSG
Momo: “W-Wait, me?”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8mPyBxhN1E
Jiro: “Yeah, you did great.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSuPmc804ZE
Ida: “A true hero we all can learn from!”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFd47v5qAme
Mina: “You were so cool, Yaomomo.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMvGvqJcanI
Momo: “But I… lost. How could I have the highest marks? I think Todoroki deserves it more.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFvs7Zcc4H3
Aizawa: “Yes, but you demonstrated the traits every hero should have. Prioritizing the safety of the citizens and a strong will. Even when the odds were against you, you fought on anyway.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa81BdL6EQm
Momo: “I… don’t know what to say.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl2n6IHwHGq
Izuku: “He’s right; you even came up with the plan. It didn’t work because I… messed up.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIdlJGkDbIR
Sero & Uraraka: “We did too.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGU19ll0DIy
Izuku: “But the plan was solid. You were the most heroic person in the field. Don’t doubt that.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyunDveILca
Momo: “T-Thank you, Midoriya. I appreciate it.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKO6umDVFzU
He gives him a sweet smile that nearly makes the poor boy blush. But the moment was interrupted by Aizawa.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1zaROSqvSi
Aizawa: “Speaking of mess ups, Midoriya and Bakugo.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSePuTVi7fG
The two stiffened up when their names were called.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvpXSpxlHlh
Aizawa: “Everyone, except maybe Tae, who was more interested in training Kirishima,-”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXWMaHqC71J
Kirishima: “Thanks by the way.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3DIWUCKdyD
Kiri: “Nh.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3qcNNgMRr1
Aizawa: “-Understood the spirit of exercise. But you two clearly have unresolved issues. We won’t ask you to get along, but it has no place in hero work.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVN7vu27l61
Aizawa: “During your overly destructive battle, you almost hurt one of your classmates. If it weren’t for Kaminari, Jiro could have been seriously hurt or even killed. Do you understand?”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhuP1pIMxsU
The two could only nod; Izuku couldn’t even look in the direction of Jiro. More than anything, he felt shame that he failed to be the hero he swore to be.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnPtL6oQuxp
As for Jiro, she felt a bit upset at both of them. But she won’t hold it against Izuku; he seems like a good guy who just made a mistake.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaYutijBmwO
Jiro: ‘Don’t know about Bakugo. He was clearly the aggressor in that fight.’
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZBiOipoGiE
Aizawa: “I expect better from both of you. This isn’t a schoolyard fight anymore; this is the real world. Take better care to keep track of your surroundings.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTV3MPq6lWl
They nodded once more.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtOHrwyEE1p
Aizawa: “Good, now, I’m tired. Class dismissed.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxMNbyNrDuW
The class dispersed mostly silently, the somber atmosphere discouraging any jovial antics.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlbjbNwKw1E
But before leaving, Izuku does what he has to do. He goes to Jiro and bows.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoNiBx52LZe
Izuku: “I’m sorry! There is no excuse; I should have noticed you or kept the collateral damage to a minimum. I’m sorry!”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOA8EcVCXRe
Jiro: “Dude, it’s fine. Just be more careful next time, okay?”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkh6EH3vL66
Izuku: “Of course! I won’t let something like that happen again. See you tomorrow, Jiro.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQhxKDyzPEy
With that done, Izuku ran back to Kiri, who was waiting for him nearby. Didn’t erase the guilt, only motivated him further to do better. So others won’t be burdened by his existence, never again.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbwPN6srPCN
He didn’t notice Kiri furrowing her brows, feeling her beloved depressing thoughts.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTXivoSC0P6
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4hqTAAFbbG
Bakugo was walking out of the school lifelessly. But as he sees Deku and Kiri walk ahead of him, ignoring him, it brought it all back.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡInvJarG4Q5
The idea that he doesn’t matter anymore. That he is the pebble instead. He couldn’t stand it!
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEP7KTcMhk5
Bakugo: “Deku!”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRiUGO53fo5
Kiri turned around and glared at Bakugo. It was one filled with so much bloodlust, that even Bakugo had to take a step back. But it faded instantly when Deku gently pushed her aside to face him.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGJm62Baf89
Izuku: “Kacchan.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrDYYd3hqfZ
They stared each other down for a moment before Bakugo broke down first.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjabacGYyRC
Bakugo: “Why?”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIPtrjTYLqF
Izuku: “What?”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsvJkBTBcx4
Bakugo: “Why did you protect me, damn it!? Do you think I’m weak? Do you think I couldn’t handle your attack?! Do you think so little of me!?”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCKsZRuuQtd
For the first time, Izuku snapped. Good thing everyone else was already gone, because he has words.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvAJ9eFWATx
Izuku: “And what if I do?! You’ve looked down on me for years, all because I didn’t have a quirk. Well, guess what? I have one now; I was a late bloomer, and my quirk is powerful! I have every right to think less of you!”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGTC7KRqubj
Bakugo was stunned. Deku, scared little Deku, the one who always followed behind him, said something like that.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuyZM0HxOrr
Izuku: “But… that’s not who I am. I don’t think you’re less than me, I’m not you. I know you’re not weak; you’re still one of the strongest people I know. But I shielded you because, even now, I don’t want to severely hurt you.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9jFaUIPGjx
Bakugo wants to scoff, to say that Deku couldn’t hurt him that badly. But something is stuck in his throat; that lie couldn’t emerge.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFWU9g4VbtV
Izuku: “That’s what has changed, Kacchan, I’m not weak anymore. I’m not a quirkless pebble.”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJCfxaVXYuW
Bakugo: “You-”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAckignlv0t
Izuku: “But that doesn’t mean you’re below me either. We’re both after the same dream, right?! Being the number 1 hero! And next time, I’ll beat you for real to prove I can be number 1!”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVgYreX6NpO
Bakugo: “Huh?! You’ll beat me for real?! Today, you did beat me, ass-clown!! But…that doesn’t change anything!”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡes0TbVCiKb
Bakugo: “You’re listening?! From here on out, I’ll never lose to you again! I’m gonna be the number 1 hero, not you! I’ll even surpass All Might! Just watch me!”
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPQyoa9rjjI
Bakugo stormed off, making sure to hide the tears coming out of his eyes.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHnVXyZUIvi
Deku looks on and… smiles. For an instant, the Kacchan he admired returned. The symbol of victory and indomitable will.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9worTGqmee
He won’t forgive Kacchan for everything he has done to him. But everyone deserves a second chance, right?
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqh1JXNnc6D
After all, they are finally on the same level playing field.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNq91JLsNRg
But not everyone feels the same; Kiri watched the scene and felt… disgust.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSGrZnHKHwo
How could her beloved onii-chan still care for that lowlife?! Regardless of what he thinks, she will deal with the problem if it acts up again.
