Chapter 190

After ending the fight with Dabi and the Liberation Army, Lee took a bus back home.

He was quite calm, hungry, and curious. Lee lifted and looked at his hands.

The quirks he has gotten, and Stand, and the power of Hamon. Now, without a doubt, Lee can be the strongest known person in the world – unless someone else is hiding his power.

'Seems I can leave the school.' Lee thought.

"What are you thinking of." Asked Yu who was sitting next to him.

"Bet he is leaving the school," Reiko said.

"Nah. Lee would be thinking about eating," Itsuka said.

Lee couldn't help but chuckling and lowering his head. "Who gets that right would get 30.000 yins. Deal."

"You don't have that much." Yu rolled her eyes.

Lee was finally back in his home city. He was walking down the street. He had already changed his clothes, and now he was wearing casual ones.

He was on his way to his apartment.

However, he noticed a weird crowd gathering in front of his living building.

"He is over here."

"Lee is back."

The people turned toward Lee while holding their cameras. A strong White flash hit his eyes. Lee started blinking a couple of times as he saw all of the lights are focused on him. the press was here, and they were trying to make an interview with him. As soon as they saw him, they got near him while running.

Lee clenched his teeth, looking at these people.

"Stop!" Lee yelled, unleashing a strong aura around his body that scared the journalists to stop, temporarily. All of them raised their cameras, ready to record his next word.

Lee looked between them, from right to left. He calmly said.

What kind of person would interview someone who has just come back from a war!!"

"Ah…" one of them lowered the camera and said. "The journalist."

All of them nodded.

"What a pain in the ass."

Lee stopped the time, walked past them, and stood up in front of his house, before resuming the time and opening the door.

He got inside, to find his mom sitting on the couch while having her leg above the other. She was shaking her foot, which meant that she was quite anxious.

As soon as she saw him, she put her leg down and said.

"Hey. Seems you have a rough day."

"You tell me."

Lee shook his head as he walked and looked over the window, to the hungry journalists who were trying to look for him.

"Mmm…" she paused for a second. "By the way, you fought him."

"Yes," Lee said.

"He seemed to say few words. Did it annoy you?" Julia said while looking at Lee. It wasn't hard to say that he knew about his father. For real. If anyone opened the TV right now, they would tell that Dabi is the son of Endeavour and that Dabi had a real nice conversation with Lee. She had seen the TV, and how Lee had been shocked after talking to Dabi.

"It doesn't matter in any case, does it."

Lee shook his head when he saw the journalists were leaving and he walked before he sat next to his mom.

"But you fought your brother," Julia said, as she patted Lee's shoulder, thinking that he may be angry. "Probably you are hating how things reached that point."

"Not really. Blood relationship isn't really that strong. Across history, most of the kings are the ones who killed their eldest siblings." Lee let a sigh. "I feel nothing," Lee said.

Julia looked forward, Lee didn't appear to deny that he knew about Dabi's relationship. He even doesn't feel guilty about what happened? Or is he just pretending.

"Are you angry?"

"why would I." Lee was just a bit tired and confused. Star Platinum left his body and brought him an apple. When he caught it, Julia said. "

"I mean. You went to your father's place. And I didn't tell you. You may hate me for not let you know who are your family."

"Why would I?" Lee looked over her. "He's an asshole. Besides, I'm happy that I took my baths with you as a child rather than him. It would have caused me trauma." Lee said seriously, even the last part.

Julia thought he's being sarcastic and chuckled, before taking the apple from his hand and chewing it.

"Were this bothering you?" Lee isn't an edgy teenager who would make a teen drama over that … no he isn't … he can understand how adults think – sometimes.

"Mm…" she nodded as she

"What an ordeal."

"Something is bothering you."

"Wait, why do you think that."

" Usually, you say good grief when the situation is hopeless. Give me a break when you are lazy, and what a pain when something is painful. As for ordeal, it's when you want to hide something that you don't want to say out of fear. And next, you're going to say Geez."

"G.. Geez – no I won't."

"You already did."

Lee was quite surprised. 'Am I reincarnator or someone who had been risen again?' It made him doubt himself

Julia hit his shoulder. "Now, what's annoying you? Tell me."

"See… it's about." Lee bit his lip for a second, thinking if he should drop the bomb and say it anyway.

"Yes?"

Lee took a deep breath. "Fuyumi? Do you remember?" Lee then looked to his mom's green eyes directly. Julia's eyelids opened widely.

"What?"

"that time, after the hospital."

"Ahem. Ahem." Julia rolled her eyes, a small blush running across her cheeks. "I didn't tell you so you don't have a heart attack."

"I would have one when you said, it's not wrong," Lee said, letting his face closer to hers and half closing his eyes.

Julia blinked twice.

"I mean, you think, it's not wrong? So, it's okay with you? "

For the first time, he saw her opening her eyes widely. Lee wished that he bite his tongue. He just made it a question.

'Star Platinum, can you rewind time.' Lee thought, but the stand shook his head as it stood by the corner, crossing its arm and observing.
