24 Calm Before The Storm (2)

Munch!

Tomura ate the burger in his hand slowly.

Was having burgers for breakfast bad?

Maybe?

Well anyways, Tomura scrolled through his phone and his eyes flickered every now and then.

If one looked at the query in the search bar they would see, "People with the most unique quirks in the world."

[Shen Yu- Chinese Descent, 16 years old. With such a young man on the list, you might be wondering what his quirk is right? Apparently, Mr. Shen Yu can control spirits. Yes, spirits!

Even his peers sometimes feel frightened by him. After all the moment a fight is started they are attacked by invisible entities and are left befuddled.....]

Hmm?

Snap!

Tomura took a screenshot and scrolled down.

[Alexander Shmidt- German Descent,21 years old. Another prodigy that is hailed as one of the strongest people in the country.

In fact, his Quirk is very scary and even caused him to be ostracized by others. As far as we know Alexander can control blood! Not only his but of even others!

His quirk is known as Blood Manipulation.

But Mr. Alexander is a very righteous person, instead of abusing his quirk he found a way to simply restrict villains' blood flow and make them feel numb before capturing them...]

Hmm?

Snap!

Tomura took another screenshot and sighed. Won't he end up screenshotting every single person on the list?

But he had to say, even though the anime never explored beyond Japan most countries didn't pale in comparison to it.

As he scrolled down he reached the end of the list suddenly his eyes narrowed, among the list of people this was the only one that made his killing intent go bonkers.

[Alice Walker- British Descent, 15 years old.

Number one on the list and with the most unique quirk of all time. Her quirk is known as the Traveler!

Her quirk is Time Traveling but Alice insists on it being called 'The Traveler'.

Young Alice can travel through time! Yes, you didn't read wrong!

With such a god-gifted ability Alice has had a rough childhood and suffered many assassination attempts.

The specifics of her quirk were never revealed after Alice was taken in by the British Royal Family as the adopted granddaughter of the current Queen....]

"..."

Tomura froze before suddenly cursing in his heart.

"Yeah f*ck this shit. I won't be letting her live for long."

Time travel?

The f*ck kind of bullsh*t ability was this?

Literally cheating.

Tomura's brain started working crazily.

'Assuming she can really time travel then she would know about me no doubt. After I'm done with Japan the rest of the world won't be peaceful anyway.

Will she interfere? And if so why has she not yet? Maybe it had to do something with her quirk? After all just because she had the ability to time travel doesn't mean she's strong.

But let's just assume that if she has time-traveled to a situation where most people in the world know about me wouldn't she inform the Royal family and alert them?'

Tomura knitted his brows.

'Well, such a quirk should have its backlash, right? What could the possible limitations be?'

Tomura thought about and even considered Nighteye, All Might's friend.

1. Like him she can only see a blurry future.

2. She can't use her quirk frequently.

3. She... She can't interfere in the future?

There was a difference between going to the future and seeing the future. Did she travel with her body or only her conscious?

Tomura's expression changed and his eyes turned cold.

'It's been a long time since I've attempted assassinating someone with a SSS class rating.'

It was a rank from his previous life.

What did SSS mean?

A target where the assassin only had a 0.1% chance of succeeding.

Even Tomur- No Zero had failed an SSS class mission. It was the only mission he had ever failed.

Considering his current strength could SSS class be hard now?

No...

But what if the target could see the future?

"Hahaha," Tomura let out a cheerful laugh, his assassin blood was raging throughout his body.

He even had the urge to drop everything here and take a week to attempt finishing her off.

Tomura calmed himself down.

'I guess I'll travel out of Japan for a bit after I'm done with everything in Hosu.'

Time travel? A very enticing quirk indeed and he had a strong urge to steal it... but he couldn't risk letting his plan be leaked out.

Never! Not until he was invincible!

He could only imagine the utter chaos and outrage.

No matter how strong the current him was he would be crushed to death if everyone in the world came after him!

***

Everyone was gathered and large amounts of battle spirit was being emitted by the students, especially Class 1-A.

They had trained with all their might in the past week.

Every other class felt pressure upon seeing Class 1-A. They could feel the raw strength coming from the entire class.

"Good afternoon, everyone!" A loud voice gathered the attention of everyone and they saw Present Mic looking at them.

"I know that the last month hasn't been the best for you all but don't be so down! You guys are going to be the top heroes of the future! If you guys give up who's going to punish those villains?"

"So give it your all and hope for the best, only by growing stronger can you protect yourself and those close to you."

Seeing the expressions of children grow brighter Present Mic let out a sigh of relief when he suddenly saw Class 1-A's expression crumble.

He was startled but didn't know what to say so he turned away and started explaining what the events of the Sports Festival would be.

...

"So give it your all and hope for the best, only by growing stronger can you protect yourself and those close to you."

As Present Mic said this Class 1-A also felt a bit better. They shouldn't just give up, right? Or how else would they give that stinky Genesis a beating?

As they tried cheering themselves a mutter echoed between them, "Not if we all die before getting strong..."

Everyone was shocked and their expressions faltered. All the cheerfulness was gone.

Midoriya was the most surprised. Why the hell would anyone say such a depressing thing at this moment?

He turned his gaze over to the person who spoke and his face fell.

"...Iida."

Midoriya clenched his fists. He couldn't bear seeing the state of his classmates.

If only he had strength like All Might he would capture villains 24/7.

As for why he wasn't surprised that it was Iida who spoke, it was because of the recent news.

Pro hero Ingenium's legs were crippled and could no longer work as a Hero.

'Everyone's already feeling like crap and now Iida has to hear such news...'

He shook his head and listened to Present Mic.

'Two vs Two? And One vs One? Pretty basic.'

After Present Mic finished the names of the teams were immediately shown on the screen in front of them.

Midoriya's eyes widened.

[Team B- Izuku Midoriya and Fumikage Tokoyami.]

Midoriya turned over to look at Fumikage. When their eyes met Midoriya suddenly shuddered.

Fumikage's eyes were like two dark black holes filled with coldness.

He blinked and the feeling disappeared. Now Fumikage was looking at him curiously too.

'Was I hallucinating?' Midoriya felt puzzled but ultimately shook his head and muttered to himself, "Yeah, I must be imagining things... I should've slept properly last night..."

***

In a large mansion, there was a room that was decorated very prettily. The theme of the room was similar to Cinderella and most of the walls were pink.

There was a large bed in the middle that was enough to fit ten people at once and sleeping on it was a cute young girl with long curly blonde hair.

She seemed to be about 13 or 14.

"AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!"

"NOOOOOOO!!!"

All of a sudden a horrifying shriek was heard throughout the mansion.

The cute young girl jerked up from her bed with tears and snot staining her face. Her eyes were lifeless and filled with terror.

Her face was pale and looked like a corpse. The entire mansion was in an uproar and a butler along with a few maids immediately rushed into the room.

Seeing her in such a state they panicked and the butler immediately issued a few orders while he rushed to comfort the young lady.

"Miss? Miss? Nothing's wrong Miss calm down, everything's alright, no one will hurt you here. Please calm down."

He patted her back and tried to calm her down with a soft voice.

But the girl kept on sobbing.

He didn't say anything but stood silent for a few minutes before sighing in relief.

The young lady had finally calmed down.

"Tell me what's wrong young miss, was it another bad dream or...." He was hinting at something and the young lady shakily nodded twice.

"Leave."

He ordered for the maids to leave who obeyed puzzledly and the room became silent.

"Speak freely now, what happened?"

"I- Uncle Ron... *Sob* *Sob*"

"E-everyone was gone... There was fire everywhere. Grandma, Uncle, Aunty, Riyan, Even you... No one was *Sob* spared."

"The p-palace was destroyed! Thousands of people died! Uncle Ron! I-I--I'm....scared"

"It was a human-shaped monster, y-yes he couldn't be human! He killed e-everyone, he destroyed everything and no one could do anything!"

"Please...Please help me, I can't stand it. I-I-I can-"

Suddenly she fainted and the butler who was frozen in shock was startled out of his stupor and slowly tucked her in bed.

Yet he noticed his own hands were shaking.

Cold sweat made his back damp.

"This..."
