Chapter 31 - Preparation For Exams...
A/N: Some pf you are saying that Nemuri's attitude is completely bitchy and I completely agree with you. I made her like that... but there is going to be a twist in her background & story which would tell you why she is like that. So, stay tuned for that...
Shortly after that our important date was over. We exchanged our contacts and went our ways. To say... I wouldn't say I liked Nemuri's personality but I still want to go on a date with her so I could know her. Going on a few dates won't hurt anyone... at least I don't think so. If she isn't someone loyal... then at least I would come to know.
So after getting all the snacks Momo asked me to buy. I finally returned to Yaoyorozu compound. I dumped all the snacks in their kitchen before heading towards our house. I entered the house and saw mom and dad were getting ready to leave.
"Umm... where are you going?" I asked curiously. I have never seen them dressed so nicely except for some nice & important functions.
"You father is invited in a marriage reception, so it will be only you for tonight" my mom said in her normal voice. I immediately got excited that I might be able to get Momo here.
"Ooh... have a nice time both of you" I said with a happy and cheering voice. That seemed to tick my mom off for some reason. Her face immediately became serious.
"Now that we are leaving you don't need to sneak out of our house to visit Momo at night..." my mom said while placing her hand on her cheek.
She knew? How the hell did she know? "How did you know?" I squeaked out.
"The way Momo was walking right after the Sports Festival told me a lot" my mom said with a stern face. Damn...! I guess my luck ran out right after I got a date with Nemuri. I looked over to dad who was looking at the direction. I followed his sights and he was checking the flower vase... damm! He is skillfully ignoring the conversation.
"Uhmm..." I guess not saying anything is the best I could do now. Mom didn't bother me anymore and became cheerful the next instant and left the house pulling dad along with him. After they finally left I heaved a sigh... damn! Mom's are pretty dangerous. At least she wasn't angry... it was just awkward.
Let's forget all this stuff and I should go and train for today. So what should I do today?...oh yes I know. After taking a quick shower I went to training area and started to try generating electricity. Momo had already explained to me how to do it after right after the Sports Festival but I didn't have time after the internships started.
After 45 minutes of trail and error I was finally able to make some decent sized lightning bolts to dance around my fingers. I had seen Denki use it like this so I have followed his example. The electricity didn't harm me like I had thought previously. But my lightning was definitely different from Denki's... not just the colour but lightning seemed more erratic.
I need more practice before reaching any conclusions. It could be many reasons for this erracticness. Denki played with his Quirk since he was four and I just for 45 minutes. Obviously my control would be whacky, my lightning colour is also blue unlike yellow of Denki's. I first need to control them if I want to use them. After practicing two more hours the quantity of lightning increased but they kept becoming more and more wild. I finally decided to keep it up to this today when I remembered about my detention with Momo-sensei. After a perverse giggle and skipped back to my house.
I checked the places where mom would leave food for me usually the fridge or table but founding nothing I didn't bother anymore and took out instant ramen from the cupboard. Ahh... I have to say that ramen is happiness... damn... I am becoming the knuckle-head shinobi. My dinner was quite short because Momo send me a pic of herself dresses like a teacher. The ate the ramen so fast that some would say that I inhaled them.
Like other days I sneaked into her room and saw her standing over the bed with a stern and serious face. I gulped hard when she slightly leaned, this made her shirt to stretch put a lot of pressure on the buttons on her chest... I gulped again.
Well it was an awesome night of us. Our first night together was inexperienced but it was still the best and always remain the best. Tonight just came after that. After being done with our nightly adventures we finally went to sleep.
The next day on the day on the way to school, I told Momo about my improvements in lightning and she also agreed that first I should work on the control before I try to increase the output of the lightning. After that I told her about my meeting with Nemuri, I kept my eyes on face to see how she reacted but surprisingly she didn't seem to mind. It's not like she was hiding her true feelings about it. Being with Momo for so many years, I have learnt to read her feelings or mood.
"You look surprised that I don't mind?" Momo asked me.
"Well yes... aren't you jealous or angry" I asked Momo.
"No, I was the one who told you to search for another girl or rather woman... so why would I get angry? But be careful, she could be plotting something from what you told me." Momo said. Honestly, I had thought that too after our importu date was done. If she was planning to seduce me then it won't work. If she plans to kidnap me then she can kidnap me... for this kind of reasons I have hidden about my powers. But I don't think that she would try to kidnap me...
School was pretty boring as we didn't have any special classes today related to hero training. The school was finally over and several of us gathered outside the gates.
I looked at the group and saw Toru, Mina, Jiro, Denki, Eijirou, Hanta, and Mashirao. Well, Momo-sensei had to work hard it seems. While joking and laughing we finally reached in front of Yaoyorozu compound.
"Guys this is my home" Momo said and turned around to see the whole group had frozen stiff while their jaws were on floor.
"Hey, Reo what's up with them? They look pretty shocked" Momo asked me, she was completely clueless. I tagged this as rich people stuff and decided to store it away.
Finally it seemed that they were coming out of their shocked states.
"Damn...! Life is so unfair!" Denki screamed and plopped on the ground while crying anime style.
"Uhmm... Momo, are you sure it's okay for us to come?" Mina asked somewhat nervous.
"Ooh... it's completely fine. Let's go!" Momo grabbed her hand and dragged her to the gates. The rest also nervously followed her. Momo was very very excited because this was the first time she brought friends to her home. She lead us thorough the halls, all of the group except me and Momo were completely gobsmacked.
We finally arrived at huge room which a huge table with lots of chairs.
"What is this room?" Jiro asked.
"I exactly don't know... we never used it. I got it cleaned yesterday for our use" Momo said it like that it was the most normal thing in the whole world. This shocked the guests again but Momo didn't seem to notice.
"All of you get yourself comfortable... ask Reo if you want to know something" Momo said and skipped out of the room. She seemed like she was on room.
"H-Hey Reo, she seems much more cheerful than ever?" Toru asked me.
"Yes, this is the first time she brought friends home, it's like a dream come true for her" I answered her. All of us settled down. The others sat down a little carefully not wanting to damage or scratch anything. I chuckled slightly seeing them.
"Dude weren't you her friend, so she didn't brought you here when you were small?" Eijirou asked me.
"I live her so I don't count according to her" I answered, this again seemed to shock the group. The girls started to blush after hearing me, by girls I meant Jiro and Mina... Toru is a girl too but her face is kind of invisible so she doesn't count. I looked at the guys, they also seemed to flush slightly, while Denki looked proud. Ooh... now I got it, they are thinking that we live together.
"Oh no... we don't live together. My house is also in Yaoyorozu compound. My mom works in their kitchen so they gave us a flat in their compound" I told them. That seemed to rid them of their misunderstanding but they seemed that they wanted to more questions about that. Before they could ask, Momo entered the room followed by some maids. All of them brought trays filled with snacks, after putting the trays down the maids went away.
I again looked around the room and everyone seemed to frozen again with their jaws on their floor. After that we didn't have anymore of interruptions and Momo started to help us with the studies. To say... we had a nice time while studying too. After it was dark they decided to leave and come back tomorrow.
"Dude, see you tomorrow" Denki said and did a fist bump with me.
"Same dude" Eijirou also did the same kind of fist bump with me before walking away with Denki...
A/N: No more chapter today. I have a killer headache today...
Chapter 32 - Nemuri Kayama (I)
"So, what exactly did you write about me in your report?" I asked Rumi who was laying beside me on the grass after she woke up. It was Saturday and I was at Rumi's house. Like we had decided before, I came here, had another fight with Rumi and she ended up unconscious. It still bothered her that she lost to me but it was a kind of rivalry.
"It was boring and useless so I wrote the most important thing, 'I want you as my partner'. Ugh... I feel awful" Rumi said while rubbing her side. Damn... that one line was much more valued than any other reports she could have wrote about me.
Suddenly my phone satrted to ring, I pulled out my phone and saw it was Nemuri. Ah... immediately some mixed feeling popped into my mind. I already had a date with her, I had fun on that date, if I have to say but she was so perverted that even Jiraya would kneel in front of her and beg her to be his teacher. After going on a single date with Nemuri I am sure that if Jiraya was super pervert then Nemuri would be Ultra Pervert. I finally accepted the call.
"Hello! Whatcha doing handsome?" Nemuri's perverted voice was heard from the other side. I looked at the side towards Rumi who had already noticed the caller and was somewhat interested.
"Nothing... I was at Rumi's house, training!" I told her.
"Uhmm... so you wanna go on another date... um tomorrow?" Nemuri asked me quite nervously, that wasn't even like Nemuri. She was never nervous... and I mean never ever when I had seen her or talked with her. This piqued my interest, I really wanted to what is making her so nervous.
"Yeah, sure. I would love to" I told her. I immediately heard a squealing sound from the other side. She also didn't squeal like a school girl. Something is definitely going on.
"Then how about 9 am tomorrow, in front of the mall?" I asked her ignoring her squeals of happiness because Rumi was looking at me with piercing eyes.
"Don't worry handsome, I will be there" after saying that Nemuri cut the call.
I placed my phone in my pocket and looked at Rumi who was still looking at me with critical eyes.
"So, what did that perverted woman want from you?" Rumi asked me.
"She wants to go on a date with me" I told Rumi. Rumi was taken aback slightly.
"Didn't you have a girlfriend... yeah, Momo. So are you cheating on her?" Rumi asked me with a stern face.
"No, Momo knows that I have been talking with Nemuri. Momo doesn't mind sharing" I answered Rumi. Rumi didn't know what to say to that, so she just kept quiet.
After a few minutes I got up and helped Rumi to get up. I changed back to my normal clothes and bid farewell to Rumi which she happily returned. While returning home I started to think about Nemuri and mine's first date.
Well it started pretty normally like any other date but soon it turned into something else due to Nemuri's perverted comments. Some people heard her and looked at her oddly which didn't even bother her in the slightest. It was really awkward for me but it was quite fun, spending time with her.
When the date ended Nemuri looked pretty sad and I could clearly say that it wasn't acting or anything. She really felt sad that our date came to an end. I didn't particularly bother about that at that time, she seemed pretty open and liberal so I didn't know what made her so sad. I particularly didn't start anything serious with her so it wasn't a matter. I liked her but that doesn't mean that I will love her or get together with her without personally knowing her. That is the reason I accepted the second date with her. Even if we don't end up in a relationship, it's pretty fun to spend time with her.
I finally returned to Yaoyorozu compound and found that our study group was already here. I was tired and I need to practice my lightning so I decided to skip. Momo can always help me later and from what I know it was already half-way over. I pulled out a box of led bulbs and a few resistors. This was the method I decided to train my control. I would pass electricity through the circuit and try not to melt anything. I have been doing this for about 12 days. It has been two weeks since the study group has started. It meant I had another two weeks before finals started.
My control and power over lightning have increased massively. I have a second Quirk and that is confimed now. I had previously thought that I have been subconsciously using my lightning to manipulate my body's bio-electricity to boost my physical body. But now that I am learning to manipulate lightning, I could clearly say that my body's bio-electricity was as normal as it could be.
I was working on two moves... first one was pretty usual but op stuff Railgun. I don't know if I could do it but I don't want to practice it here in Yaoyorozu compound and another one was Rupture... it was named Rupture after seeing the effects. It wasn't a nice thing to try on any living being. It was kind of similar attack which was used by Narberal Gamma to destroy the skeletal dragon but it's range was short. It usually vaporised the target, I tried it today near Rumi's home and vaporised two trees. This was a villian reserved attack when others were not looking. It would be a good attack if I kill someone, I would no longer need to search for places to hide the bodies... hehehe!
Turning off my dark side I continued my training with my lightning. No one knew about this except Rumi and Momo. Rumi didn't care much as long I kept fighting her. Momo was very much interested but she was busy with her own Quirk so she couldn't help me that much.
After that the day was completely normal, after dinner I sneaked into Momo's room, she helped me with the stuff I missed today. I told her about Nemuri's odd behavior. She too found it odd but couldn't say anything conclusive. After our discussion was done we went straight to sleep, no naughty stuff today because it was Momo's that time of the month.
The next day, I dressed casually and left the house. I got off the bus and checked that I arrived 15 minutes early, so I decided to wait but as I walked I could see Nemuri was already there pacing back and forth, she looked pretty nervous and anxious. It's odd... I am gonna keep my senses sharp.
I silently sneaked behind her and tapped on her shoulder, she seemed to jump out of her skin and shrieked slightly and jumped around to find me.
"Damn...! My heart almost jumped out of my mouth" Nemuri spoke and put a hand over her heart trying to calm it down. I must have given her a nice scare. After she finally calmed down her face lit up like a christmas tree in happiness.
"Today is the best day ever... I am so happy today that I could just die!" Nemuri said while linking her arm with me and pulling me along with her. Ummm... we didn't even start our date so I don't know why she became so happy to see me. Just a few moments ago she was so nervous and anxious... it rang some warning bells in my head but I let her lead me.
She dragged me to a karaoke bar and booked a room for both of us. The receptionist looked at us strangely but fortunately wasn't able to recognize neither of us. For Nemuri I can understand because she was wearing a hat and shades and I wasn't as famous as her so it was alright. It was much better if no one recognized us.
After we entered the room and Nemuri received our drinks order, we finally sat down. Nemuri played a song... it didn't look like she wanted to set up mood for sex, so it must be so that no one could spy on us. My guess was correct after that she checked the room for any hidden cameras or recording devices. Damn she could have just asked me... finally she sat down when she was sure that no one would hear us.
"Hah... we can talk here safely" Nemuri said. Currently she was completely out of her perverted nature.
"I didn't know if all of that was needed so that we could just talk!" I deadpanned. Nemuri's smile immediately turned perverted and grabbed my hand. She didn't seem to be trying to seduce me so I let her do it...
She gestured me to stand up which I did... and she dropped on one knee. No... this isn't what I think it is right? Fuck... what this flying fuck is this...
"Marry me, Itsuki Reo!" Nemuri spoke, her voice was completely serious. What the fuck is this? She is definitely missing some screws from her head... asking a person to marry you, just on your second date isn't normal... it's even out of the league of weird category.
"Don't you think it is very fast... I mean very very fast?!" Unable to keep calm I shouted.
"Ummm... yes. You are the first person to go on a second date with me so I decided to bag you" she spoke like it was a matter of fact and she sounded to be proud of this achievement... wait! did she say first person to go on a second date with her?
Chapter 33 - Nemuri Kayama (II)
A/N: According to some this chapter will be filled with bullshit and I somewhat agree. But I kind of liked if Nemuri had this kind of background.
"Um... did you just say that I am the first person to go on a second date with you?" I asked completely bewildered. Even though I heard it right from Nemuri but it still felt like some divine mystery have been unraveled. So, I thought that I should verify it from her, again.
Nemuri looked kind of embarrassed when I asked that... she slightly figeted, I finally held her shoulder and rose her up. I didn't want my talk with her to continue like this...
"Uhmm yes, that is why I didn't want anyone else to hear us... and I wanted to propose you too. So... umm, are you rejecting me?" Nemuri asked me and kept getting more and more depressed through the sentence.
"No... but I have to reject your proposal for now at least. I don't think that two dates are enough to marry someone... and I still a minor so police will directly ship you in a cell for corrupting a minor." I was finally able to calm her down.
Hearing me she released a sigh, they her expressions again turned perverted. "Good. You are just 15 now... so I get some more years to seduce you." She spoke and nodded to herself. That was not what I wanted... but it's fine as long as she understands.
"So handsome... how you wanna spend our rest of the date?" Nemuri asked me while licking her lips.
"Can we talk more about more about me being your first partner to go on a 2nd date with you?" I asked her... this time she didn't get depressed.
"Oh... it's just I was never able to date anyone a second date. Everyone of them called me perverted fiend and ran away... now that was rude and mean. I mean, I am just more open & liberal, they can't call me perverted for that..." Nemuri whined. I don't think they were mean or rude to call you a perverted fiend. I am seriously thinking that she doesn't even have any idea about other people's standards.
"So, you never tried asking anyone of them what you are doing wrong?" I asked her.
"I did... but that guy had a restraining order for me, I tried another two times but same thing happened again" Nemuri said sounding almost proud.
How did the hell did she ask them? I don't think someone getting a restraining order just for asking questions. "How did you ask them?" I gathered the courage and asked her that. I honestly didn't want to know this but I had to if I wanted to help her.
"I broke into their houses" Nemuri declared while puffing out her chest. "They weren't answering my calls or texts, so I directly went to their houses." She sounded completely proud of what she did. Damn...! She became a creepy stalker too. How the hell is she still a hero?
"You don't do that, Nemuri. If you want to ask someone you should not break into someone's house. But, with how things were going didn't you think that something was wrong with your approach?" I asked her still bewildered. I still couldn't bring myself to think how could someone think this is normal.
"Oh... I did. I was still in high-school at that time so the police told me that if it keeps going on then I can't be a hero... so I stopped dating!" Nemuri answered still proud of herself. Did she really say that she last dated when she was in high-school? That's more than 12 fucking years...!
(A/N: In canon there is no information related to Nemuri's parents. So, in my fanfic she is going to be an orphan)
"Then you never found out what you did wrong? Your parents never told you?" I asked Nemuri slightly shocked.
"I was an orphan so no one took responsibility and told me and I found out later what I was doing wrong but by then I was already R-Rated Hero: Midnight, so no one wanted to date me because everyone thought that I was loose woman." Nemuri said, she looked kind of solemn now.
"I am sorry I didn't know" I spoke trying to comfort her.
"Oh... don't worry about that. I never knew how it felt to have parents so it never bothered me" Nemuri said again back in her usual self.
"So, you didn't date anyone for so long, why did you suddenly asked me a student to date?" I asked her. If she didn't date anyone why did she want to date me suddenly... it better be not that she received some divine revelation.
"Oh... it's not like I dated... but it was never a date kind of date. My partners just wanted to get in a bed with me because I was Midnight or go out with me for popularity." she spoke while taking a gulp from her drink.
"Wow... just wow... I am really surprised to know all these. I couldn't even imagine something like this" I told her in return she looked at me while licking her lips. That kind of brings me wanting her to ask another question.
"So, why did you become a pervert?" I guessed that direct approach would be the best with her. She got up from her seat and plopped on my lap. I wasn't expecting this...
"Wouldn't you like to know?" she spoke and licked my cheek. Damn... this immediately made me hard. Nemuri immediately understood what it was and adjusted herself to make it comfortable for me.
"Looks like someone's excited... well for your question, since I was small I always liked to read adult stuff... videos weren't popular that time. By the time I was in high-school by porn collection would put anyone to shame." Nemuri spoke. I don't know that if any other woman would openly speak about her porn collection like this.
"It always fascinated me... and I read in some books that boys liked girls who were more open." Nemuri said while snaking her hands around my neck. Well I learnt a lot about her today.
"Ooh... so it has must have been fun for you, right?" I couldn't keep myself from asking. After all I am guy too... and more than that curiosity was eating me up.
"I never had a chance. You are the one who had come closest to popping my cherry" Nemuri whispered into my ears. Damn... she is a virgin too...? What more secrets will be she revealing today?
"I am floored Nemuri, I never came today to get onto a intense roll-coaster today. I don't know what to say..." I told Nemuri, I honestly don't know what to do now. What could I even do? I have always like Nemuri, I am not going to lie but I didn't ever think that there would be so many secrets behind Nemuri Kayama, R-Rated Hero: Midnight.
I was finally brought out of trance when I felt Nemuri interwine her fingers with mine and look directly into my eyes. We didn't speak anything but she raised herslef slightly and kissed me. I didn't back away, I happily returned the kiss. Her lips were kind of sweet... and definitely experienced. Even if she is a virgin, I can definitely say that this wasn't her first kiss. After, kissing for a few minutes we finally separated.
"So what does this makes us?" Nemuri asked me.
"I guess, you are my girlfriend from now on" I told her, this immediately made her happy.
"But I guess we can't publicly announce it, people will get jealous of you" Nemuri said.
"Will be fired too... students and teacher relationship's aren't liked in the society" I told Nemuri.
"Can I ask you something?" Nemuri asked me again back in her serious mode. I just nodded my head.
"Why didn't you say anything about my dressing sense? Everyone I tried to date after I became a hero told me to stop dressing like that or they won't be dating a slut like me" Nemuri asked. Now, I can't exactly say that I know it's about her Quirk. She never told me or explained in public how her Quirk works.
"Actually I mind... but I am not going to control your life from day one... after all you are an adult, you can make your own decisions" I chose the most diplomatic answer there could be. And the answer seemed to make her happy.
"Well, don't tell this to anyone but my Quirk works best with more exposed skin" Nemuri said while trailing her fingers by my cheek but came to stop when both of our stomachs growled loudly.
Nemuri blushed but the next moment both of us started laughing. While laughing I unconsciously pulled her towards me in a hug. Only after a few seconds I noticed what I was doing but neither if us did anything to back out. Nemuri's hands also snaked around me and hugged me.
"Aren't you worried about my age, Reo? I am twice your age... or you like women like me?" Nemuri asked again after we ended our hug.
"I think we can work something out" I can't exactly tell her that if she leaves this world along with me she won't be botheing about her age anymore. Suddenly our stomachs growled again but this time she didn't blush.
"I think we should go out and eat" I spoke to which she nodded her head. Both of us got up to leave but before I could open the door she again pulled me into a kiss...
Chapter 34 - Finals (I)
It has been two weeks since me and Nemuri got into a relationship. I wanted to tell Momo about Nemuri's past but finally decided that it wasn't my story to tell, Nemuri can tell Momo herself if she wants Momo to know.
I just told Momo that me and Nemuri were in a relationship now and she had no problem with sharing. I still needed to tell Momo about my going to other world thing. Momo also didn't have any problem but wanted to meet with Nemuri so that she could sort out some matters. She didn't tell me what those were. Both of them had decided to meet after the finals are over.
Momo taught me everything I needed to know if I wanted to pass the exams. More like threatened me with no sex if I fail, Nemuri also did the same on her own. Damn... everyone said having a harem is men's dream but no one told me the problems that came along with having a harem.
I knew what were going to be for the practical exams in final but I didn't know whom I was going to fight. My best bet would be All Might, I can't find myself fighting against someone else, Nezu wouldn't want that. Now, here I was pacing around in Momo's room.
"What's bothering you?" Momo asked me while raising up her head from the books.
"Oh... I was just revising the stuff in my mind, moving like this makes it easy" I told her, though she didn't believe me. After all, this was the first time she had seen me do this.
"Don't lie... I know you never do that..." Momo spoke after she kept down her book.
"Umm, well I was thinking that earth's gravity is due to magnetic fields, right?" I asked Momo to which she nodded. Seeing that I decided to continue "And gravity works on everything not just metal. So if earth's magnetic fields can do that... I can do it too, right?" I asked her. This is what I have been thinking about for a few days. Since I have already mastered Railgun and Rupture completely, I didn't bother making new moves now. I was spending more time thinking what more I could do with my powers.
After listening to me, Momo placed her hand on her chin and started to think... a few minutes passed just like that. I nervously kept looking at her. She is the only one who could tell me if it's possible or not.
"Theoretically it is possible. But you told me when you awakened you Quirk you could clearly feel the metals like a sixth sense, right?" seeing me nod my head she continued "it can be that you magnetic fields only work with metals but that isn't the case so, the only reason would be that you are not strong enough" Momo finally concluded.
"You can also control gravity... meaning attraction and repulsion (A/N: Hint Hint, can anyone guess) but aren't able to do because of required power, everything only points to that or you won't have other powers like lightning or that magnetic force field" Momo gave another explanation. I guess she is right, maybe this should be my new project.
"I guess you are right, you are always right" I said and jumped into her bed tackling her down.
"Down boy... we have our written exams tomorrow." Momo said while giggling. She gave me a nice and wet kiss, after that I laid down beside her and pulled her on my chest.
"I love you, Momo" I told her.
"I love you too, now let me keep away the books so both of us can sleep nicely" Momo got out of the bed and kept her books in the table before popping herslef down beside me. Suddenly my phone started to ring, I didn't even need to know who it was. I accepted the call without even looking.
"Hello honey~" I heard Nemuri's voice from the other side.
"Hello Nemuri, what's up?" I asked her. Momo snuggled closer to me.
"Just getting something ready to sleep thought I call you, are you ready for the exams tomorrow, honey?" Nemuri asked me in her usual slutry voice.
"I think I am but I am still nervous" well I was and am still nervous.
"Oh... honey~, don't worry so much, the tests would be... ah, I almost spilled some beans but honestly don't worry too much" Nemuri purred.
"Good night, Nemuri" I told her.
"Good night too, honey~" Nemuri purred and cut the call.
Both of me and Momo didn't stay up anymore and went to sleep.
The next day I woke up and after wishing Momo good morning I sneaked out of her room. I also texted Nemuri or she will whine like a kid. In these two weeks sometimes I think I am the adult in our relationship.
After breakfast, we were enroute towards school. After reaching school it was pretty clear that everyone was tense. I wished my friends good luck but it didn't seem to ease their nerves very much.
After the exam finally started, I found that the paper wasn't hard. Yes, to top the exam, it would be very hard but to pass it was quite esay. I wrote down the answers I could and sighed.
Like this another week passed. But we only had written exams for three days and other days were gap between them. I could easily say that I was going to pass the written exams easily. The others also felt the same, I knew Momo would top the written exam and there were no arguments to that.
Now, everyone was worried about the practicals, nobody knew what it is going to be except me. But there could be some changes because of me being in this world. I haven't currently found anything different in this world. Though, I had changed a lot of things. Let's see what happens in future.
Tomorrow Momo had decided to meet with Nemuri where I am not invited. Honestly, I wanted to know what they would chat about but I am not interested in getting bored with girl's gossip (no offence to girls who are reading all my rant). I returned to Yaoyorozu compound and went to the training room to train the gravity stuff. Only after one week I could already attract other kind of materials towards me. The objects would just only lean towards me when I use my power but this proved that I could do it.
It wasn't like the metals. Playing with metals and manipulating metals was easy to me like breathing but doing this was very very hard. After training a couple of hours I went to my home to get freshened up.
The next day Momo took bus and went to meet Nemuri while I took bus towards Rumi's house.
[WITH MOMO]
Momo arrived at a cafe and found Nemuri waiting outside. Nemuri was wearing a large hat and a huge pair of shades. Even her clothes weren't like anything she usually wore. In other words no one would recognize her.
At first even Momo took a few moments to recognize her. Nemuri had also noticed her and waved her hand towards Momo.
"Hello Kayama-san, you are looking pretty nice" Momo greeted Nemuri.
Nemuri was slightly taken aback, she had been dreading to meet Momo, she had been guessing that Momo might be hostile to her or something similar to that.
"Don't need to be so formal, just call me Nemuri" Nemuri said and extended her hand towards Momo. Momo immediately accepted her hand and shook it.
"Why don't we go inside... I dying to take off this hat and glasses" Nemuri said restless. Momo also agreed and followed Nemuri in the cafe.
After getting a seat in the corner, Nemuri finally took off her large hat and her large shades, and released a sigh.
"You will understand after you become a famous pro-hero" Nemuri said to Momo.
"Don't worry, I completely understand" Momo completely agreed with her.
Both just sat there in complete silence, neither of them knew what to speak about. They just kept staring all around until the waitress interrupted them. Both Momo and Nemuri ordered a drink each. After the waitress delivered the drinks, Nemuri finally broke the ice.
"So, are your preparations done for the practicals?" Nemuri asked then she cursed herslef. They didn't even knew what the exams were about.
"Yes... but I don't know who I am going to fight against" Momo spoke. Nemuri stilled for a moment, but calmed down again.
"What makes you think that there is going to be a fight?" Nemuri asked skillfully hiding her curiosity.
"Well, Reo thinks that... he thinks that we would be fighting against you guys... the pro-heros working for UA" Momo said nonchalantly, she knew Reo was mostly right about these kind of stuff. There had been some instances in past where Reo had correctly hunched something.
But it was completely different for Nemuri, she knew that no would leak this thing to the students. She didn't do it... and she started to think Reo knew any other pro-hero. He had a good relationship with Mirko but she didn't knew what we're going to be in the finals. She had to give it to Reo, he had a pretty perfect guess.
"Then, how are you preparing for that if you think Reo is right?" Nemuri asked again.
"I know he is right, I have made some plans to fight some but I don't find myself winning in any of them" Momo said honestly.
"Enough about serious stuff, let's chat about something else" Nemuri said, Momo also wanted that... now that Nemuri had broken the initial ice between them both had started to chat like normal girls...
Chapter 35 - Finals (II)
[IN A DARK ROOM]
"Why haven't you find him yet? It has been one month, you had been given a simple to kidnap that kid... but through one month you didn't even find where he lives!" Tomura screamed and ranted in front of Muscular and Dabi.
Both felt ashamed of themselves, the target was just a kid, why can't these people find him?
"He goes to UA, you can find him there!" the 'man-child' screamed.
"I think we should postpone it for now, with the finals the security around the school is pretty tight" Kurogiri spoke for once since the meeting has started. Hearing him, Tomura finally calmed down. He started to think calmly and found that Kurogiri was right, they can't be seen around UA now.
[WITH REO]
From today, the practical exams were starting. I have to say that I had a nice weekend after the written exams. He spent Saturday with Rumi while Momo and Nemuri had a get-together. On Sunday he had a nice date with Nemuri, though she felt uncomfortable because she had to wear that absurdly large had and shades throughout the day so that police won't arrest her for corrupting a minor.
I found it pretty amusing but didn't say anything because he knew that Nemuri was quite sensitive about her age. Though I would have liked to find what my two girlfriends chatted about because I was really curious. But Momo 'It's between us, girls' dashed any of his hopes of knowing them.
"Are you sure that we would be fighting against sensei's?" finally hearing Mina's worried voice who was speaking to Momo beside him brought him out of his thoughts.
"I can't say for sure, but I think that it is most probable" instead of Momo I decided to answer Mina. Mina looked at me and became more nervous.
I just hope that I get to fight All Might... he is the only one who could give me any challenge now. I don't want to fight Aizawa honestly, yeah my Quirk can't be stolen or canceled but I still want this to stay secret. Who knows if this comes to light how many organizations would be after me. Even though I could deal with all of them, it would be still bothersome.
After a few minutes Aizawa arrived and led us to ground beta . We were already in our hero costumes, so we didn't need to change. We entered the ground and found all the pro-heroes in UA staff were waiting for us there. Nezu was sitting on Present Mic's shoulder.
"Good morning students! For your practical exams all of you would be divided in the group of two and you will be fighting against one of us. All of the match-ups are done ahead of time. The teachers won't be holding anything back so you should also give it your all." Nezu paused a bit looking at our reactions then continued "all of you have to work in team or you won't be able to win. Each fight will have a time limit of 30 minutes, there are two ways in which you can win. Either you have to escape or you have to defeat your opponent" Nezu spoke. I looked around me and found everyone of the students were very worried now.
"Another thing, those who fail the pratical exam won't be able to go for summer training camp" Nezu spoke and jumped from Present Mic's shoulder to All Might.
After that, the display lit up and showed the match-ups. My mouth hung open... damn... I wanted to fight All Might.
1) Team Sato & Kirishima VS Cementoss
2) Team Asui & Tokoyami VS Ectoplasm
3) Team Ilda & Ojiro VS Power Loader
4) Team Itsuki & Jiro VS Eraserhead
5) Team Uraraka & Ayoma VS Thirteen
6) Team Ashido & Kaminari VS Nezu
7) Team Koda & Todoroki VS Present Mic
8) Team Hagakure & Shoji VS Snipe
9) Team Yaoyorozu & Sero VS Midnight
10) Team Midoriya & Bakugo VS All Might
Do they really want me to lose? Or they want to show me how weak I am without my Quirk? This is shit, I looked towards Jiro who also was worried about our match-up. I went towards her to talk when Sato & Eijirou are taken to ground beta along with Cementoss to fight.
"You know Aizawa's Quirk, right?" I asked Jiro to which she nodded.
"But I can't defeat him without getting close to him and I suck in close-combat" Jiro said while getting depressed.
"I will hold him back until you can reach him, he would be mainly using his Quirk on me to cancel my Quirk" I told her, to this she also nodded. We looked at the viewing screen for the fight and like in canon Eijirou and Sato tried to use brute force to defeat Cementoss, which didn't work out like they wanted. Cementoss did a short work of them and Eijirou and Sato were soundly defeated just after the match had started.
All of our classmates were shocked to see how easily they lost. Of course, this would be the only outcome if you don't make a plan. The pro-heroes who we are fighting against are working with their Quirks since long ago... they would know various ways of using them while holding back.
"Are you sure that we will win?" Jiro asked me nervously.
"Don't worry... even if we lose, we will give it our all. We won't go down silently" I said to her. This seemed to work like a charm and determination lit up in her eyes.
The next match was announced, and Team Asui & Tokoyami along with Ectoplasm head towards practical exam location 2 for their match. We saw through the screen that like in canon Ectoplasm was guarding the escape gate while his clones were chasing Tsuyu and Funikage throughout the setup while they were trying to reach the escape gate. After defeating all the clones of Ectoplasm and reach the escape gate only to find real Ectoplasm waiting for them there.
Ectoplasm created a gaint clone who used Giant Bite Detention super move to eat both of them. But Tsuyu tricked Ectoplasm and cuffed him, finally winning the match.
The third match between Team Ilda and Ojiro VS Power Loader. Their fight was on a dirt field... just like in anime. Mashirao climbed up behind Tenya's back and escaped the field. Power Loader tried to catch Mashirao but he used his tail to get past Power Loader and successfully escaped. They were also declared winner.
It was our match next. Everyone looked very interested in our match. Of course they would be, after all I single-handedly defeated all the villians in USJ, won all the three events in UA Sports Festival, and some even knew that I defeated Stain and another Nomu during Hosu Incident. And me being Rumi's intern was common knowledge now, so all of them wanted to see what I could do without my Quirk.
[WITH AIZAWA]
When the topic of Itsuki Reo came up during the match-ups were being discussed everyone looked worried.
Nezu said that Itsuki depended too much on his Quirk, even if Rumi asked his as her partner there was no way that Reo's physical abilities would be a challenge. So, everyone turned towards Aizawa, only he could get Reo to work physically.
All of them had seen Reo's performance in the sports festival and Aizawa himself was present in USJ when the villians attacked. He had the closest idea how he used his Quirk. And Aizawa completely agreed with the rest of the staff.
While walking towards the practical exam area he started to think how he is going to ambush them. He needed to cancel Reo's Quirk before Reo notices him or it could be an instant loss. He had seen what Reo had done to those villians in USJ in a matter of few seconds. And he also cannot neglect Jiro. If by any chance she is able to stick her eaphones in him then he had lost There was also a slight problem that he can't cancel Quirk of two people's. So he needed to knock out Reo before he attacks Jiro.
He wanted to show Reo that he shouldn't be overly dependent on his Quirk. With all these stuff in his mind Aizawa started to sneak towards Reo and Jiro.
[WITH REO]
Our exam ground was a residential area, it was the same where Todoroki and Momo fought against Aizawa.
"Jiro, Aizawa will try to get you away from me, don't do that. Remember that he can cancel only one person's Quirk at a time" I said, I could already sense Aizawa was slowly heading towards us.
Aizawa's tape could be a huge problem for me if I let him catch me. I have to be careful about not getting caught in that. From anime what I remember Aizawa is smart and a quick thinker. So, there is more than 90 percent chance that he will try to ambush us.
As I was thinking these Jiro was sweating due to the pressure. I could sense that Aizawa was only one block away from us now...
Chapter 36 - Finals (III)
[IN THE VIEWING ROOM]
"Who do you think will win, Momo?" Mina asked Momo.
"I know that Mirko was teaching him but I don't know if he can fight Aizawa or not" Momo answered.
Everyone's eyes were fixed on the screen. All of them also wanted to see how Reo would fight against Eraserhead. Most of them even forgot that Jiro was also in the match. Bakugo's face was smug now... he wanted to see Reo lose.
Izuku Midoriya was calculating about the probabilities like he always did. This match was so interesting for him that he had forgotten anything about his own match against All Might. He was saved by Reo from the Nomu, so he was pretty excited to see the results of this match. Subconsciously, he had made Reo a target he needed to pass.
Todoroki didn't have any hard feelings against Reo like Bakugo did but he was still interested in this fight. He had still remembered how he had lost in the sports & how Reo defeated those villians in USJ.
"Hey... Reo can even attack even when he isn't looking at the opponets like he attacked me and Jiro in Hero Basic Training" suddenly Denki said dashing everyone's hope to see an awesome hand-to-hand fight.
[WITH REO]
Fighting in this kind of residential area worked out for my advantage. The iron sand stored in my hero costume started to leave. Aizawa was in my range now, I knew exactly where he was. Everyone, because of my recent fights have thought that I need my to see my opponents to attack. Honestly, I somewhat forgot this myself... hehehe... I didn't even to make so many plans with Jiro.
The sand immediately rushed towards where Aizawa was, Jiro looked at me and a sudden realization hit her.
"You could have done that! There was no reason to make so many plans!" Jiro said.
"Um... sorry. I have really forgotten myself that I could use it like that..." I said to Jiro then concentrated back on my attack. My sand had reached Aizawa and started to attack. Aizawa was able to dodge for a few seconds but he was eventually caught, he needs eye contact for his Quirk to work so I quickly covered his eyes with a strip of iron sand.
(A/N: Hehehe... last chap I built up so much suspense about am epic fight and now... hehehe. Some of you will curse me after reading how anticlimactic this was... hehehe... pranked...!)
[WITH AIZAWA]
Aizawa was heading where Reo and Jiro had taken position, he could have waited for them near the exit but doing that would give Reo and Jiro advantage to surprise him. Unlike Power Loader or Cementoss or Ectoplasm he didn't have any offensive abilities expect his martial arts and for martial arts to work he needed to get close.
So, he needed to ambush them like he had planned ahead, he was about to turn a corner when suddenly a wave of iron sand tried to engulf him.
"Shit...!" Aizawa cursed, all of them had forgotten that Reo could attack even when he was not looking. He tried to dodge being able to dodge a few times but he was finally caught when the iron sand started to wrap around him.
'I still have a chance if he comes in front of me, I can cancel his Quirk, freeing myself' Aizawa thought in his mind but the next moment his thoughts were dashed as his eyes were covered by a strip of iron sand.
"Shit" Aizawa cursed again knowing that he had lost and had lost miserably.
[WITH THE PRO-HEROES]
All of them looked Reo sending all of his iron sand towards Aizawa.
Seeing this All Might suddenly remembered that Reo could even attack when he wasn't looking at his opponents or they were far away.
"All Might care to tell us something" Nezu gave him a stink-eye. All other pro-heroes also gave him a stink-eye.
"Hahaha... I kind of forgot that" All Might laughed in his usual pose and didn't even look embarrassed.
[WITH REO]
I walked up to Aizawa and the iron sand cleared freeing his hands only upto the wrists. Jiro quickly cuffed him and only after that I let him go.
With that our win was declared and walked back into the viewing room and the whole room was filled with gobsmacked students. Everyone wanted to see an epic battle but they only saw one sided win. Aizawa never had a chance against me...
Everyone congratulated me and Jiro for the win and the next match was announced. Team Uraraka & Aoyama VS Thirteen, their match was being held in USJ. It was similar to canon, Ochako and Yuga tried to leave through the escape gate but were stopped when Thirteen brought them closer, Ochako finally takes down Thirteen using martail arts taught to her by Gunhead.
After that match was over, the three of them returned to the viewing room. The sixth match was announced, Team Ashido & Kaminari VS Nezu. Their match was being held on ground gamma, like in canon Nezu plays with bothe Mina and Denki.
Nezu calmly destroys all of their escape routes except one and they weren't able to find that in time. So, they fail the exam when the time runs out.
The seventh match was announced, Team Koda & Todoroki VS Present Mic. It was being held in a forest inside UA High, damn...they also have a forest inside the campus. Pretty unfair... I was slightly interested in this match since it was original. Todoroki decided that he wanted to defeat Present Mic while Koda wanted to run away. I could guess that much by looking at the screens.
When Present Mic gets impatient and sends his first attack, Todoroki realises that Present Mic was much more stronger than he had imagined. After 15 minutes of dilly dallying around, a sudden barage a ice spikes attack Present Mic, he dodges the attack easily but unable to locate Todoroki.
Present Mic keeps sending his voice attacks but suddenly a sea of flames rush twoards him from one side and huge ice glacier from other side. Present Mic launches another attack to nullify them but Todoroki appears with his ears covered in ice and freezes the surface making Present Mic unable to move. Before Present Mic could do anything he is cuffed by Koda who appeared out of the blue with his huge body. With that they are declared the winners.
Wow... I have to say, that was a good fight. They could have at least pitted me against Present Mic, it could have been much more interesting that the fight I had with Aizawa, if it could be even called that one.
The next match was being held in some building filled with stone pillars. Damn... UA is surely well funded. Team Shoji & Hagakure VS Snipe. The match was exactly how it happened in the anime, Toru cuffs Snipe but by some chance Snipe unknowingly brushes his hand against Toru's breast. Toru flips and calls him a pervert and what not, well it was quite funny and amusing to see. With that Shoji and Toru are also declared winners.
The next match, the ninth match was between Team Sero & Yaoyorozu VS Midnight. This match was pretty interesting, my girlfriends were being pitted against each other. Let's see if Hanta can pass this time or still loses. Their match was being held at the same Rocky terrian where in canon Mineta and Hanta had their match.
As soon as the match starts Momo makes a mask to protect herself from Midnight's Quirk. Momo knew from the previous matches that Midnight would be guarding the escape gate. With that idea, Momo makes a net but I don't know what she was going to do with it.
They made some plan and started walking towards the escape gate where Midnight was waiting for them. Midnight attacks to both with her whip and tries to corner any one of them. Both of them dodged her started to run away from her. Since there wasn't any audio we weren't able to hear anything.
I could clearly see that Midnight's sadistic side has started to come out while she was following both of them. Suddenly the net Momo made sprung out of a tree and Midnight's left arm and leg gets caught in the net. Immediately from the other side Momo jumps out but Midnight was expecting this and hits Momo with her whip but it seemed that Momo was only a decoy and as soon as the whip hits Momo, Hanta also popped out front bushes and cuffs Midnight's left hand which was caught in the net. Midnight also trips to back out but Momo had grabbed Midnight's right arm and dropped on the ground holding it in submission hold. Hanta uses this chance and cuffs Midnight's other arm too.
With that... Momo and Hanta won the match. This time Hanta also wins the match. After getting out Momo's whip mark was treated by Recovery Girl. I just hope that they don't resent one other. After they arrived in the room I went to Momo.
"How is your hand?" I asked her.
"Oh it's ok... don't worry Nemuri said sorry to me after the match. Even if she didn't apologize I wouldn't have held it against her. It was an exam after all." Momo removed all my doubts with her answer. I didn't even ask her but she already knew what I wanted to know... good girl.
The tenth match was between Team Bakugo & Izuku VS All Might. The match was exactly same what happened in canon. They may have even spouted the same tripe... who knows. I watched the whole match with bored expression... but finally somehow Izuku and Bakugo won the match with the power of fighting together (I call it bullshit or plot armor).
With that the practical of final exams were fianlly over...
Chapter 37 - 1st World Travel Partner
A/N: After the finals there is an I-Island incident, I haven't seen the movie My Hero Academia: Two Heros so I am going to skip it.
MC will not even consider it even happening.
With the finals finally over I should be completely lazing around but that actually didn't happen. I was still try to attract and repulse non-metallic objects. It didn't bear many fruits though. But I was able to do something else... I was able to slightly manipulate gravity.
"Hah... did you know that Ilda invited both of us to train" Momo spoke while sitting beside me and handing me a water bottle.
"Nah... so do you want to go?" I asked her, she nodded her head excitedly. Damn this must be Denki plan to see the girls in bikini. Well I don't think it is going to work because I watched Momo pull out a school swimsuit from her huge wardrobe.
"Are you going to wear that?" I asked her pointing towards the swimsuit.
"Why, yes... the rest of the girls think that they should wear school swimsuits, I also find it to be appropriate" Momo said directly going into her class president mode.
"Um... well I would have liked to see you in something else" I told her mysteriously. A sly smile appeared on Momo's face and opened another of her wardrobe and pulled out a red bikini and showed it to me.
"How's this?" Momo showed me the bikini from all sides. Though I would have liked if she showed me while wearing wearing that bikini.
"Wow... it would look really nice on you" I told her excitedly. Even though I have seen all of her but still wearing a bikini has different kind of affect.
"But you have to wait mister... this is for when I am going to be in my private pool" Momo said while putting back the bikini from where she took it out.
"I don't remember you buying all those clothes" I told her looking at all the clothes collection she had.
"Oh... most of them mom bought for me... when I ask her to stop she would just say 'I have grown up' and runs away while crying. So I just stopped asking her to stop" Momo said with a blank face. Damn... rich people are weird.
Suddenly my phone started to ring, I picked it up without even looking. "Hey honey~... muah!" Nemuri's voice was heard.
"Reo, are you free tomorrow? I wanted to take you to lingerie shopping" Nemuri spoke. From the day finals ended she is trying to pull into lingerie shopping with her. I know, I am most lucky guy... but still...
"No... there will be no lingerie shopping but we can go for clothes shopping if you want" I told her.
"...Fine... be like that...! So when are we going?" Nemuri asked me sounding little depressed that I didn't accept her lingerie escapade.
"We were invited by friends to train at the swimming pool, so I will call you after that" I told Nemuri.
"Ok, I will be at my apartment" Nemuri spoke in a slutry voice. I am get used to this relly quick.
"Bye, Nemuri. Take care" I said.
"Same to you, honey~" saying Nemuri finally cut the call.
"Did she again try to drag you with her in lingerie shop?" Momo asked me with a smile on her face. She folded her school swimsuit and put it in her bag.
"Yes... well she is how she is" I told Momo.
"Yeah, it's really great that she didn't drag you off to her apartment and had her wicked ways with you" Momo said while giggling.
"She maybe a pervert but she doesn't have any practical experience after kissing" I told Momo with a blank face.
"Well... she did ask me for some tips, she said she was somewhat lacking in experience" Momo told and stripped out of her clothes and slipped into the bed.
"You are really insatiable" I said and slipped out of my boxers and pulled Momo towards me but suddenly remembered something. I have been thinking to tell Momo about me being from other world.
"Momo can we talk?" I asked her nervously.
Momo immediately looked into my eyes and kissed me while caressing my face.
"Sure... I have already noticed that something was bothering you but since you didn't bring it up I thought you needed more time" Momo spoke and placed her chin on my chest.
"Well... this might sound like I am insane but just trust me on this... ok?" I spoke to which Momo nodded her head. "Well... here goes... I am from other world" I finally gathered the courage and blurted out. Momo didn't react visibly but I could feel the gears in her head turning. Suddenly her eyes glazed up and I immediately got up and pulled her towards me to check her eyes... did she pass out with her eyes open?
Suddenly a message appeared in my mind like the message I received from God.
[1st Partner for Side-Along World Travel Selected: Momo Yaoyorozu]
Damn... what the hell is this... did God selected her directly because I told her that I am from different world. I waited for a few more seconds for Momo to wake up or react. Finally her eyes turned normal and blinked a few times before looking at me.
"Wow... really if you didn't tell me I would have never believed that there was a God and other worlds out there" Momo spoke completely excited and tackled me down on the bed. Just with one sentence she believed that I am really from another world... I didn't tell her about God... did she receive a divine revelation or something?
"Wait... what happened? Did you pass out or something?" I asked Momo while caressing her head.
"No... it was like..." with that Momo began to tell me what happened.
[POV (MOMO)]
I watched my boyfriend, lover chatting with his another girlfriend. Now... I should have been jealous to see my boyfriend speaking with another girlfriend or I should have already broken up with him.
Well I was the one who asked him to chase another girl because it was getting too hard for me. I mean his is the best guy I could have ever gotten together with but he has a downside. His STAMINA, he has an insane stamina. It is really great that he loves me so much but I can't take that much... he stays hard even after 6 times... if that had kept going I would have been split in two. So... even if it hurt I let him chase another girls.
He was so considerate that he even stopped himself only after three or four times. I knew he wasn't satisfied but I couldn't make him.
So, it wasn't much sharing him with another girl... er, woman. She was his crush after all, as long as he is happy I can put up with that. After he cit the call I folded my swimsuit and put it in my bag. Stripping out of my clothes I slipped into the bed. I hugged him but I could clearly see that something was eating him up. After, what seemed to be a mental struggle he finally asked me if we could talk. So, I supported him like any good girlfriend. But what he said... I wasn't prepared for that.
"Well... here goes... I am from other world" he said. Damn... I was dating an alien?! I screamed inside my mind but before I could say anything the whole world turned black and a message popped in front of my eyes.
[Well hello child...! You didn't actually believe in me, not that I care. I don't usually meddle in the mortal world until something really huge happens. So, just because of that reason I sent Itsuki Reo to your world to complete a mission for me... well if he wasn't sent to your world then the future would have been not bright... not at all bright. So many usless deaths and so many people wanting to cause chaos and destruction just because they could. In not so far future... a huge calamity in your world will be begin and it will be brought by a single person. The person this world had chosen as it's hero has proven to be Useless so here I had to intervene.
Now, I had said that the world chose a hero, well yes. The world had a conscience and can choose a protector. Well, it made a wrong choice and all of mankind paid the price for that. Itsuki Reo is send to stop that future from happening.
Now I have ranted a lot but let's go on with a better topic. Reo here trusts you and decided to tell you the truth about himself. I saved some time and thought that I should send you a message to clear all your doubts. Now I want to ask you if you want to travel others worlds along with him or not. If you decide to travel along with him you don't have to worry about your parents, they would receive protection from me and no one in the whole world would even care that your or Reo had disappeared from the world. In future other girls also might join along with you to travel with Reo.
Now you can think and make your decision, I will be waiting. And another thing you can come back here anytime you want to meet your parents when you miss them and I will also explain it to them about your World Travels so you don't have to worry about that]
Finally the huge message ended... wow... I don't even know from where to start. Let's arrange everything from beginning.
This world chose a hero or protector but he or she turned out to be incompetent and the world got screwed up. So, God intervened and put Reo here so that the dark future could be avoided.
Now, I can choose to travel along with him if I choose now. Now, all the doubts about my family is clear and the world wouldn't miss me... I can travel to other worlds along with my Reo...
Yes... hell yes... I will travel with him. I always imagined if there were other worlds or not, now rejecting such a nice offer will be a waste.
"Yes I would accompany him throughout all the world he travels" I declared.
[Good, now I am going to send you back]
With that I am back to the world and found out Reo looking at me worriedly. He asked me what happened and I began to tell him.
"...and that's all" with that I finished my story.
A/N: How's that? MC will travel to all the worlds with incompetent MCs, and also some worlds where plot could have ended on a much better note
Chapter 38 - Popping The Cherry (R-18)
A/N: Well you guys might be thinking that I am slowing down my updates but that isn't it. I was on a train, traveling to Kolkata and I gotta say... Kolkata is Lov !
Well, the next day passed quite normal if I have to say, though Momo didn't let me sleep till morning. We didn't have sex you horny dogs (kidding)... she was quite... intrigued about learning that there were other worlds. About the existence of God, she didn't care much but the other worlds interested her... so as a loving boyfriend I had to indulge her.
So, i skillfully dodged the swimming contest by saying that i didn't like water. Denki and Eijirou were continuously teasing me that I was either scared of water or didn't know how to swim. I didn't bother to correct them... because I knew that if I tried then I would have been dragged into their meaningless competition.
Like I had thought it was Denki's plan to invite the girls so that he could see them in swimsuits but all of his hopes were dashed when the girls came out wearing their conservative school swimsuits. All of us then made fun of Denki when we found him crying in a corner. To say, the day was quite entertaining but I was much more excited about my date with Nemuri. No matter how much perverted she is, it was fun to spend time with her.
Momo also agreed to that, after meeting and talking with Nemuri for one day she decided to ignore Nemuri's 'philosophical ways' or she herself might turnout to be a sexual deviant. Before lunch all of us decided to call it a day thinking that it was enough fun for the day. Both me and Momo left the school and went towards Yaoyorozu compound. After we left the train Momo decided to tease me.
"Aren't you too excited?" Momo asked me while making a sly face.
"Well yes, you also agreed that spending time with her was quite fun if we ignore her 'philosophical ways'" I gave my retort to Momo.
"Well... have fun. You don't have to drop me at home or it will hard for you to make excuses to leave the house" Momo said, how supportive my girlfriend is... I am quite amazed. I instantly enveloped her in a tight hug and gave her a passionate kiss. No matter, how much I love her it seems that I am always lacking.
"Be careful on the way back... call me when you reach home" I said and kissed her again while walking away waving at her.
"You too... have fun" Momo said with a smile and continued to walk towards Yaoyorozu compound.
After 45 minutes I reached Nemuri's apartment and rang the bell. Immediately a flushed faced Nemuri opened the door and pulled me inside. I was immediately kissed by her, I know how she was so I dominated the kiss which made her moan. After a few seconds we separated and a string was saliva still connected our lips.
"Wait here... I am gonna change" Nemuri giggled and separated from me. I finally got a look at what she was wearing... she was wearing a semi-transperant T-shirt and a pair of black thong. I could clearly she her micro bra or whatever that was inside her shirt.
"You shouldn't open the door dressed like that" I scolded her but her eyes wasn't on my face. She was intently watching my lower body, I knew why she was looking down... I was hard. It's not my fault that she gave me such an eye-candy and I wouldn't react like a normal guy... I was a teenage boy after all.
Nemuri licked her lips and finally looked up. "I knew it was you... I could smell you" Nemuri said looking absolutely serious. Is she a dog?! How the hell she could smell me like that?
"How were you able to do that exactly?" I asked, I was really serious about that.
"Not telling... it's a secret" Nemuri replied playfully and turned around and enticingly swaying her ass she entered her room. Damn... I sat down and decided to calm myself, I was still hard.
After waiting for 1 hour Nemuri finally left the room, she was dressed like usually she did in other dates. I was really bored and had started yo text Momo.
I grabbed her hand we made her smile. After leaving her apartment I took her to the shops from where Momo liked to buy her clothes... I mean Momo not her mom. If I took Nemuri to the shops from where Momo's mom brings her clothes then Nemuri and me both would have to empty our pockets.
We browsed through a lot of stores... the shopkeepers were mostly women and they could immediately say that Nemuri was much older than me but they didn't voice it out. Even if they knew that my date was much older than me they weren't able to recognize Midnight. All of them just made some odd faces towards me, it made me feel awkward but just after the leaving the store I forgot that.
Nemuri tried to teach me about her 'philosophical ways' but I skillfully ignored her or diverted her attention towards other things. By the end of the date both of my hands were full with bags filled with clothes, no matter how fucking strong you are or what position you hold, you would have to carry your girlfriend's shopping bags. Thankfully Nemuri didn't try to drag me in a lingerie store... but I knew she was planning something. Her face she was making gave her away.
Like a dutiful boyfriend I carried the bags without complaining and we finally reached her apartment. She told me where to keep the bags and pulled me with her towards the couch. For a moment we just kept looking at each other but the next moment we were making out hungrily. I pulled her down along with me and laid myself on the couch, we kept kissing like there was no tomorrow. Both of our hands were roaming on each other's body.
"Can we play a game?" Nemuri asked me in between the kiss.
I know what she wanted and where this would lead to. She wanted to pull me in her bed she we had started dating seriously. I kept postponing it, making excuses about the exams. I did want to take that step with her so quickly... it was too fast for me.
"You know I am not getting any younger" Nemuri said while looking depressed. I knew that she was really sensitive about her age and when I thought about it she was right. I finally decided if she wanted to do the deed then I would agree.
"Ok... fine what game?" I finally gave in with a smile on my face. Her face immediately sported a perverted grin.
"Who ever cums first have to be other's slave for tonight" Nemuri said and jumped out of the couch and pulled me together with her. We entered her room and it was filled with several adult magaines, she opened a trunk and took out a latex mask, a whip, cuffs, nipples pincers and several other sstuffs and laid it down on her bed some can be used on both men and women and some were only exclusive to each gender. I honestly don't want to end up as her servant... I declared inside my mind.
As soon as she was done I grabbed her roughly and started kissing her, I know she likes this very much. I pulled her down with me on the bed but she stopped kissing me and turned her face towards my crotch while her crotch was over my face. In an instant my dick was out of my pants... it was rock hard because of my anticipation. This was the legendary 69.
I knew I couldn't dilly dally anymore and pulled down her pants and found that her folds were already dripping wet and there were no panties... she was going commando through our whole shopping trip. Her pussy had a arrow like hair just above it. I sniffed her pussy and gave it a lick, this made her whole body shiver but she didn't back down. She was already licking the tip of my cock.
I plunged ny tongue into her snatch and I immediately found her sensitive spots. I started caressing her pussy hair while hitting her g-spot. She engulfed my dick and immediately did a deep throat, it almost send me over the edge. She started to bob her head up and down while tongue danced around the length of my dick. Her style was ameture but she was getting hold of it pretty quickly.
Her body started to shiver and I knew that she was gonna cum. I was also close but suddenly Nemuri mouth left my dick and her head jerked back. Her body shivered and she came into my mouth. I was really close and that not getting a release ruined my fun.
"Looks like you lost, Nemuri" I told Nemuri was dropped on the bed after she finished.
"I have been a naughty girl master, punish me...!" Nemuri demanded. I immediately smacked her ass hard, she moaned.
"You don't make demands slave... it is upto me how I am going to punish you. Now strip and lie on the bed" I ordered, it was hard, but I knew both of was were having fun.
"Yes, master" Nemuri stripped out of her clothes and laid on the bed. No matter how much she tried to hide I could clearly hear her excitement through her voice. I got down and got the cuffs, latex mask, nipple pincers. I stripped myself and cuffed Nemuri's hands behind her back, then I out on the nipple pincers and pulled them. This made her moan hard, I placed the latex mask over her face which only gave access to her mouth. I picked up the whip and swatted at her ass. Nemuri moaned again.
"What are you?" I again whipped her ass.
"I am your dirty slave master... please punish me" Nemuri moaned out between her heavy breadths.
It was really getting hard for me to hold myself back now. I lined my cock by her pussy and started to rub it along hee slit.
"Please master... I can't hold back anymore" Nemuri whined. I again whipped her ass making her moan.
"You have to beg slave!" I told her and kept rubbing my dick over her pussy. Nemuri was already on her fours so I could clearly see her juices dripping on the bed.
"Master, please shove your dick in my pussy and ravage me!" Nemuri almost screamed.
"Ok, slave" I told her and immediately pushed my dick in her pussy. Her pussy was so wet that I felt her hymen but it broke without using much force. I knew that I broke her hymen because of the blood, I decided to wait so that she could adjust but Nemuri seemed to have other ideas. She started to jerk herself back and forth telling me to start moving, I started to move according to her rhythm and it immediately turned into raunchy sex.
"Pull my hair... pull my hair..." Nemuri somehow said. It was getting too difficult to even speak now. I pulled her hair back and this seemed to send her over the edge and she came immediately. When her hot cum coated my dick, I also wasn't able to hold back and came inside her.
Both of us were so horny that we were immediately raady to go again but this time I took off her mask and nipple pincers. I grabbed her nipple and pulled back, she moaned and our intensity rose up more if that was even possible. Both of us were so horny that we did it 8 times we both of us were completely tired. Nemuri looked like she would immediately pass out.
"I love you Reo" Nemuri whispered into my ears.
"I love you too, Nemuri" this was the first time I told her that. I don't remember I told her this when he were having sex. After hearing me I felt Nemuri's breath evened out with a smile on her face. While stroking her hair I also went into dreamland
Chapter 39 - Quirk Training Camp (I)
I woke up really late, I immediately started to search my phone and found it in my jeans pocket which was laying by Nemuri's table. As soon as I saw the time, I cursed out loud. It was already noon. I immediately thought of calling my mom and dad, damn... I forgot to inform them anything, they must be worried sick about me.
I unlocked my phone and found it odd that I didn't see any missed calls. There was just one text from Momo.
'Don't worry I have reached home safely and you don't have to worry about your mom and dad. I have informed that you are having a stay over with friends. Now how I knew that you would be staying over is secret.'
Ooh... so it was both Nemuri and Momo's plan. Well it's not like someone was hurt and I immensely enjoyed last night. Nemuri's first time was something else completely, can't say that I complain. I felt slightly sore and unpleasant so I immediately entered Nemuri's shower. After shower, I saw that Nemuri was still sleeping, so I decided to make breakfast for both of us.
[POV Nemuri]
I opened my eyes and groaned because of the burning sunlight. I tried to turn around and again groaned, my whole body felt numb and sore. Immediately last night's memories flooded into my mind and a perverted smile appeared on my face. It was definitely worth it.
Last night was awesome... it was everything I imagined my first time to be. I turned my head to look for Reo but he wasn't here.
I looked towards the shower but it was empty too, did he leave? Its already noon... I just tried to get up from my bed but stopped when my room's door opened and Reo came inside carrying two plates. Wow... did he really made breakfast for me... I gave myself a mental pat for choosing wisely.
"How do you feel, Nemuri?" Reo asked me with the same smile he always had.
"Utterly satisfied... happy... very very sore" I whined to him.
"Come on I will help you" Reo said put the plates on my table and picked me up bridal style.
"I approve, Reo" I said with a playful smile to which he just chuckled. He carried me to the shower and washed my whole body with care and love. It really felt nice to be loved and cared by someone like this.
After that he carefully wiped my body dry, I kept noticing that during this whole time he didn't try to take advantage or anything. Not that I would have minded, instead I would have liked it but this is also nice... really nice.
After that, I somehow wore my underwear, Reo wanted me to dress in more but I said no. He even started to feed me... he was much more than I was worth of honestly. The risk I took to date a student was definitely worth it... I would have happily follow him through hell.
He had to leave, so even he didn't want to I made him return home after we were done by breakfast.
[POV Reo]
After returning home, I greeted my mom who was back after her work was done. She didn't ask me anything, it much better like this. I can't even imagine having this conversation with my mom and dad. 'Mom I am also dating Nemuri, who is twice my age' well I could juse see that my mom having a stroke. My mom knew that I had a crush on Nemuri since I was small but she would have never imagine that her son would be the one to take Nemuri's chastity.
The days just passed like that in an blink of eye, it was already the day we would be leaving for the Quirk Training Camp. I was pretty excited about the camp. I would be getting a chance to seriously thin out the numbers of the villians.
Both me and Momo reached the UA High while linking arms and found many students were already there. Class 1-B students were also going with us, I saw Neito Monoma.
"Stay far from that boy as much as you can" I told Momo, she looked slightly confused but immediately nodded her head.
"Don't touch him... his Quirk is called Copy, he can copy someone's Quirk by contact." I decided to explain more, because Neito could use the excuse of introducing himself to shake Momo's hand and copy her Quirk. Momo again nodded her head.
"Hey dude...!" Denki said and raised his hand for a high five. I happily did the high five and Eijirou snaked his hand around my neck.
"Hey bro" I greeted Eijirou, but Denki grabbed my other shoulder and started to drag me away from Momo. Denki and Eijirou pulled me to another side.
"You are my best bro, right?" Denki asked me looking completely serious. I don't know what brought this up but immediately replied to him.
"Yeah bro... what happened?" I asked Denki, Eijirou looked away from both of us. He absolutely knew what Denki wanted. Knowing Denki it must be something related to a girl.
"You have to give me help me with a girl, I wanna a ask her out" Denki joined both his palms and started begging. Eijirou was still looking away. I hate to be right...
"Who is the unlucky girl?" I turned away from Denki and asked Eijirou.
"Hey...!" Denki screamed but both me and Eijirou ignored it.
"Itsuka Kendo" Eijirou said in a bland voice. Wow Denki is aiming high... well if he is lucky then something might happen between them but knowing Denki, I don't have much hope... Eijirou also looked same.
"Fine... but only some advices. Now, for the 1st advice" I started speaking and Denki had already pulled out a notebook out of thin air and Eijirou also looked interested. "Every girl is different, first thing you need to find about her likes and stuff. Example, some girls like muscular men or some like slim and lean" I told and Denki wrote down every word while nodding to my words treating then like gospel. Eijirou also went into his thoughts.
Soon, both Aizawa and Sekijiro Kan, homeroom teacher of class 1-B arrived and we boarded the bus. After, a long journey we finally reached the Beast's Forest. Well, I started to think how I should greet Pixie-Bob. I was playing with a coin which I took from Momo. Well, it was originally my coin but Momo always takes them away from me since if they stay with me then I would subconsciously start to play with them even in public. I had already received a warning from police due to that.
We finally reached the base of Wild, Wild Pussycats but we weren't told that. To other students it was just an ordinary forest reserve. From what I remember Mandalay and Pixie-Bob will come here introduce themselves. I have already sensed two peoples but I didn't do anything.
"Ahem!" With that Aizawa gathered all our attentions. Sekijiro Kan also stood beside him.
"All of you have three hours to reach the training camp, anyone who arrives late will not be given lunch. Now good luck" Aizawa said with his usual boring and bland tone while pointing towards a direction. We saw a neon yellow beacon there. Many students turned their heads towards the bus but a voice was heard which made everyone stop.
"That won't work!" A female voice was heard and Pixie-Bob jumped down from the place where she has been hiding and slammed her hands... or err paws on the ground and launched an earth avalanche using her Quirk Earth Flow towards us.
The coin was still in my hand and as a subconscious reaction, blue lightning thundered around me and I launched the coin towards Pixie-Bob but it wasn't at her, it would pass by her. The earth avalanche was split apart from the middle neutralizing the attack and the coin passed by Pixie-Bob scaring her. It was the legendary Railgun. The coin kept going ripping apart several trees before colliding with the mountain. A huge explosion happened and a crater was formed.
Sweat dropped from her fore-head and dropped on ass in fear. Fear was clear in her eyes, she must have see her death flashing in front of her. Damn... now that I thought of it. It was excessive, but I can't turn back time so I will just go with the flow.
"I don't like surprise attacks, good thing that I wasn't sure that if you were a villian or not or you would be missing a limb now" I said trying to sound badass. I always wanted to say this line, the situation seemed appropriate so I used it. It seemed to work like I wanted to.
But I revealed that I could use lightning too, need to make excuses now. They will definitely ask me. I looked at the students around me and all of them had their jaws on the ground, even Momo. I told her I could use lightning attacks but never showed her the attacks. Aizawa looked slightly worried while Kan looked scared. All of them saw the attack and they saw how fast it was, it covered the whole trajectory in just an instant.
"Ha ha ha, looked like it didn't work like we wanted. Kid, you pack some huge guns" a nervous laugh was heard and Mandalay came out speaking nervously...
Chapter 40 - Quirk Training Camp (II)
After Mandalay showed up, everyone was still silent. Momo was the first to break the silence.
"That's it... no more coin for you!" Momo said with serious face which meant no-nonsense.
"But... it isn't my fault she surprised me, it was a reflex" I tried to reason with Momo. The whole situation turned awkward for the others because it became a lovers spat.
"No, that's isn't an excuse" Momo persisted but I decided it was enough. She can't make this decision.
"No! It could have been a villian for all we know and her attack was clearly on us, I did what was needed" Seeing me raise my voice, Momo immediately understood that it was wrong of her to react like that. She knew, most times I would listen to her but when my smile disappeared she backed down instantly.
"Well... I completely agree with Reo here, it could have been a villain. Yes, he used excessive force but he saved everyone present here. Even if the attack wasn't lethal but you didn't know that, good work Reo with your quick reaction and it was also good that you just scared the attacker before you could confirm their identity" Aizawa said and other members of Wild, Wild Pussycats came out. All of them nodded their heads in agreement, even Kan or known as Vlad King.
"Kid, careful with that attack, I know that you are always brutal with villians but that would have ripped apart anyone if hit. We won't condone murder after all or accidental death is severely judged." Vlad King said to me, I nodded my head in appreciation.
"Reo, since when can you control lightning?" Aizawa asked me looking very interested unlike his usual bored personality.
"Before the finals... it kind of came to me like with the flying without metal thing" I said back in my usual attitude.
"I have to report it Nezu" Aizawa said. I don't care any longer since my family is protected.
"Sure, I have no problem with it" I told Aizawa.
"Looks like the initial idea of surprise attack is out of the window. In the forest you will be attacked by monsters, please continue but on foot" Kan said and all of students nodded their heads. They were now out of the shock and arranged themselves in groups and entered the forest. I entered the forest along with my friends who seemed wanted to say something but stopped themselves for now.
[With Aizawa]
"Are you alright, Ryuko?" Shino asked kneeling down Pixie-Bob. Her hands her still shaking.
"I-I j-just saw my life flash in front of my eyes. I saw the attack coming but couldn't even move a muscle" Ryuko stuttered out.
"It was really awful" Tomoko said.
"You are lucky Ryuko that he decided to confirm if you are a villian or not" Aizawa said back in his dead mode.
"Yes the villians in USJ or Stain wasn't that lucky" Kan said.
"I heard that you said he was brutal? And what's his connection with Stain, wasn't he defeated by Endeavour?" Yawara asked curiously and confused and the whole Wild, Wild Pussycats seemed to be same.
Aizawa decided that there won't be any harm telling them and learning about Reo might help them with his training plans.
"As you all know that villians attacked during USJ. I was there... it was bloody. He signle-handedly took out most of the villians and everyone he took down were either missing a limb or broken limbs in such a way that they would never be normal again" Aizawa said and this shocked the group. Kan had heard it before but it still shocks him.
"And he was the one who defeated Stain, the official report released didn't say this but Stain's leg bones were grinded into dust... doctors said that it would be a miracle if he could ever put any force from his legs" Aizawa said, this terrified the heroes more. Kan also didn't knew the details to this extent.
"It's his attitude stable?" Tomoko asked in worry.
"Yes, he becomes a completely different person when fighting villians, other times he is a caring and helping guy. You don't have to worry about anything anymore. Now that he knows you are friendlies he will even apologize to Ryuko later" Aizawa said.
"But Nezu is alright with it?" Yawara asked.
"Yes, he can't support such actions so he just turns a blind eyes. During Stain incident, police also turned a blind eye and there is also an un-said agreement between the police and Nezu that they would keep turning blind eye to his actions as long as it's just crippling" Aizawa said.
"But how tmare the police fine with this?!" Shino spoke for the first time.
"Well as you know... the system is flawed so villians get away with light punishments or they escape the prison and cause havoc again, many people die because of this. So, the villians he had defeated permanently stay out of the streets meaning saving many lives" Aizawa said and no one spoke anything else. They were already deep in their thoughts.
"Well we wasted so much time... we need to proceed with the exam" Kan said and everyone completely agreed with him.
[With Reo]
"Dude... that's unfair. Why can't I be the only one with lightning Quirk?" Denki whined and everyone in the group laughed.
"My Quirk isn't exactly same to yours... I don't know how it works but it works" I replied while walking. Momo was walking beside me completely silent.
"I am sorry, I overreacted & I was being overbearing" Momo quietly whispered looking at the ground.
"It's fine... somethings are not be controlled" I said, I was angry at her but now it's gone. I grabbed her by her waist and pulled her towards me. She meekly came into my arms but none of us said anything anymore, we just kept walking.
"Awww... so romantic!" Mina looked at us and squealed. Momo didn't even blush, she just smiled at her. We have been together for so long that small comments like this don't even bother us.
We kept walking through the forest and it has been quite long but we didn't face any monsters. Did my attack really change their mind about using monsters even after they said they would.
"I sense something coming towards us" Jiro said breaking me out of my thoughts. She had been continuously checking the forest for monsters since we entered the forest.
"Reo, we also want to get strong so stay back and let us handle this" Eijirou said completely serious.
"Ok, I will stand back" I said, well Eijirou is right. This is a training camp for everyone not just for me. I can't always save them so they needed to have fights like this.
Soon three monsters arrived, they were earth monsters, maybe it took some time for Pixie-Bob to calm down, that's why the monsters are late like that. I stood at the side and saw the whole fight, Momo made a cannon which blew a monster into bits.
Momo had to open her shirt to make that cannon like she did in canon. I didn't like it but I can't to anything about it. Though I might have stopped her from wearing that excuse of a leotard but I wasn't able to crub out her exhibitionist fetish.
God damn... both of my girlfriends are exhibitionist. Well nothing can be done because both of their Quirks are depended on much skin they are exposing.
Finally we reached the base camp within three hours and found that only our group was the one who were able to reach the camp. In the canon if I remember class 1-A took more than 8 hours. Well at time, no group was big like ours and with Jiro presence we were able to know of monsters were coming at us or not. She was also able to tell us the direction and distance so they could easily formulate plans to deal with the monsters.
I found Pixie-Bob was in the camp and walked up to her. "I am sorry that I attacked you, I was surprised" I told her to which she nodded after that, I walked away. Well it wasn't a lie, I was surprised that this time they didn't introduce themselves and directly attacked us, unlike the canon.
If someone thinks that for telling half truths I am evil then I won't ever retort to that. Half-truths can lead people to get fucked like it happened in a certain world of magic. I would request God that he sends me to that world next. Occlumency, Leglimency, Time-Turners, Animagus forms... now some would disagree saying that Animagus forms are not important in other worlds but if someone gets a flight capable animagus form then it would be highly useful for scouting. Or some could also hide themselves if situation asks for it.
Yes, my presence in that world might cause ripples and another prophecy might pop out but as long as I don't let that old fool meddle with me or my girlfriends, it would be completely fine. So, after lunch we played some indoor games inside the tent. Before sleeping hours girls and boys could stay together in a tent so it was no problem.
Class 1-B arrived just after the dark and like in canon others from class 1-A took more than 8 hours... with that the day one was finally over...
