Chapter 39: Chapter 40 ~ The calm before the storm

I left the arena and headed to the treatment room. I was told that there is an old woman who is skilled in therapy.

Is she really going to be able to cure my fingers quickly?

On my way I saw a man with lan angry look on his face.

I stopped for a moment, because he was looking at me.

He has a muscular body, somewhat similar to All Might's body.

It seems as if his body is burning, but it is only his power.

Yes, it's the number two hero, Endeavor!

The best solution at this moment is to ignore him.

*Step*

*Step*

I kept walking, and when I passed him, he told me;

"My son is a weapon I made to crush the number one hero." He turned to me, raised his voice, and added to his speech; "Who the hell are you!"

I stopped walking again.

And I began to think, but my thoughts came out of my mouth without realizing.

"Who is the hero?

All might says; A hero is someone who can sacrifice everything to protect people.

But you couldn't even protect your family.

How did someone like you manage to become the second-ranked hero?"

"Don't you see that you have overstepped your bounds?" Endeavor said.

"It seems that I spoke without realizing, but it doesn't matter. Your son didn't lose because he was weak, he lost because his will was weak compared to mine. He only wanted to win with half of his power, and that's what caused him to lose. If he had used his fire from the start, then I'll probably lose."

"Shoto is only in his rebellious period. He won't lose against a fake one like you."

"This fake one is the hope of this world." I said.

I kept walking, trudging towards the treatment room, and Endeavor said before I left;

"One day we will meet on the battlefield against a common enemy. Then you will know that you are just scum. It's okay, you can celebrate your victory for this day. But I will make him stronger than you soon."

I ignored him and moved on, and after a few minutes I reached the treatment room.

*knock*

*knock*

"Come in!"

"Hello..."

"Oh, that's you! your name is Akari, right?" the old woman said.

"do you know me?"

"Haha! What a stupid question, now everyone in Japan knows you. You should prepare for a life of fame."

"This seems a bit difficult."

"Don't worry, being famous is part of hero's job. You have to learn how to deal with people. I saw your fight, it was impressive. I like seeing people who fight smartly. Your punches weren't that strong, the ice was a lot stronger than your normal punches. but when your body temperature increased, your speed has increased too."

"How did you know that my temperature rose?"

"This is my job. The faster the speed, the greater the force. That's why you could break the ice. But the skin on your fingers was so hot, and the ice was so cold. That's why your skin peels off, and that's why you came here, right?"

"That was an amazing conclusion! Actually, at the end of the fight, I hardly punched Todoroki. Because__"

"Don't worry, I understand, you were in more pain than Todoroki in the end. Give me your hands, and I'll make sure you're able to fight as hard as you can in the next fight."

"Thanks!"

"Maybe I shouldn't say this, after all, I'm the UA doctor. I shouldn't take sides, but I'm going to cheer you on. Because I like the way you fight. You're qualified to be a Hero!"

.

.

Even a commoner one like me managed to win people's hearts.

In this world, it is not about "mediation".

If you have competence, nothing will stand in your way.

I feel like I want to protect them, I feel like I'm responsible for them.

Basically, what was the system's purpose in sending me to this world?

Most likely I'm here to maintain balance.

Why did I assume this?

The answer is simple, because I'm on the hero's side. I'm on the good side.

But there is something that still worries me, and I don't know yet what.

Did I miss something?

I don't know why I have this feeling.

I feel like something is coming...
