The Reveal(2)

(POV Hayato)

As I listened to the explanation of the person responsible for our confinement, I felt an instinctive disgust towards him.

This guy clearly doesn't give a damn about justice or any values ​​he talks about. He just wants to have fun.

If I had to summarize his discourse, it would be:

"Yo guys, kill each other while I have fun watching please"

Other than that, what strikes me the most about this whole situation is that this guy didn't exist in the anime at all.

I need more information. So I raised my hand to see if what we saw was just a pre-recorded message or a live broadcast.

"Sir I have a question" I said

The dark figure seemed to turn in my direction.

Ok, so this is a live broadcast.

" Oh? A question? Please ask it." Replied the mysterious figure.

"You ask us to beat ourselves to death otherwise you will punish our countries. How can we believe you?" I asked

I already guessed that the bombs placed in our hearts are to kill us. But how does he intend to punish a country?

"Hehe… I already expected someone to ask me this question. So I prepared this. Look. "

An image appeared right next to the dark figure.

It represented a flourishing city. Many residents lived their lives in peace. The employees worked, the elderly walked in the parks, the children went to school.

Then the human shadow snapped its fingers.

The whole harmonious scene was bathed in a blinding white light that caused us to close our eyes because of the discomfort.

When we could reopen our eyes, everything was gone. Buildings, children, workers, the elderly.

There was nothing left but a scorched ground filled with desolation as far as the eye could see.

It was hard to imagine that a few seconds ago this place was teeming with life.

Silence reigned in the room where we were locked up.

Izuku stammered "Im-Impossible"

"Such cruelty," Alicia whispered who was right next to me.

The rest of the class was far too stunned to say anything.

"What you just saw is Denmark. I just erased it off the face of the planet. This is the punishment I reserve for the countries of shattered teams. So do your best to survive "He explained to us happily.

" IMPOSSIBLE !! it must be a video edit!" Mineta yelled with tears in his eyes. He looked completely terrified. His mind looked like it was on the verge of collapse.

"A video edit you say? I would therefore allow you to contact a person of your choice. You can ask if this is just a simple video montage." He said.

"Call my father!" I said directly without asking my classmates for advice.

They seemed to be too panicked to make rational decisions.

" Your father? Hmmm Very well. I'll give you 3 minutes to talk to him." He answered me

* ring ** ring ** ring *

The sound of a ringing telephone echoed through the silent room.

* Katcha *

" Yes hello? "Said a man's voice

"Dad, it's me Hayato. Listen to me, we don't have a lot of time. " Did I say

"Hayato is that really you? Don't worry we see you on TV. I am currently with all the other parents of students. " did he declare.

"Do you see us on TV? Ok anyway, if it's really you, give me password # 3 multiplied by # 12 then add # -23." I asked.

He took a few seconds to find the result before answering

"1265"

"Ok now tell me if Denmark still exists. If the answer is no, how loud was the sound of the explosion? Give me all the data you have. "

"Denmark… no longer exists… The country has been completely wiped out. Everyone here is panicked by the announcement of this mysterious villain. The explosion was so dazzling that almost half the globe could see it. The shock wave was so powerful the whole world surely heard it. Even in Japan, the sound of the explosion was very loud. By my calculations, the sound of the explosion must be around 300 decibels." He replied in a resigned tone.

Our situation is, therefore, broadcast live. Nice demonstration of power. Erasing a country as soon as he appears.

I imagine that the situation of each team is broadcast in their original country. It's really bad taste.

He intends to show all of our decisions to the world. This game really looks like fun for you.

We'll see how long you can keep your smile. Thinking that I could be your toy was the worst mistake you ever made.

As I was thinking about how to give him the worst possible death, I heard my father say to me in a comforting voice.

"Hayato ... From what I understand, the future of Japan depends on you. But don't worry about us. Just take care of yourself. I know you are strong but be careful. "

Wow, his words could almost have made me cry if I was someone else. But I must admit that I much prefer my current parents to those in my old life.

"You don't have to worry about that, Japan will be the last one standing. " I told to reassure him.

"Good luck my son"

* Katcha *

"End of the allotted time! I forgot to warn you that everything you go through will be shown on TV. So every murder you do will be watched by millions of people. Don't forget it. Well I think I said it all so- " said the dark figure before being interrupted.

" Waits! May I know what your name is? " I asked him

" My name? Hmmm… You can call me Lucifer, " He replied.
