Dango family

When school ended, Aizawa and Mineta were ready to go to the hospital to meet Eri.

To be honest, Mineta was too lazy to meet Eri since he didn't have an interest in a little girl.

'If Eri is ten years older...'

If Eri was ten years older, Mineta wouldn't hesitate to come to the hospital.

However, it seemed they wouldn't go to the hospital alone.

"Mineta-kun!"

Mirio smiled brightly as he waved his hand excitedly at Mineta.

"Togata-senpai." Mineta nodded. "How is your body?"

"I am fine! Thank you! Because of you, I can continue to become a hero! Thank you... thank you so much..."

Mirio was almost crying at this moment since he was so grateful to Mineta. If Mineta wasn't around, then he might die. Even if he didn't die, then he would lose his Quirk.

Fortunately, Mineta was around, and he helped Eri to use her Quirk to return everyone to their previous state, erasing all the injuries and damage in the surrounding areas.

Eri's Quirk was strong.

If Eri could control her Quirk, then it would be amazing since her Quirk made it possible for someone to achieve immortality.

For those who stood at the top of the hierarchy, she was so important that she had to be protected by many people.

However, while her Quirk was strong, she couldn't control it.

As for why she could control it before, it was because of him. He was using his "Link" ability, which was an ability he got from Hagakure before. This ability allowed him to share, connect, and even influence the people he connected with to a certain extent. He also used his other abilities such as "Singing Manipulation," "Voice Manipulation," "Pump Up," and also "Stamina."

After all, with Eri's stamina, how could she return everything in the area of several hundreds of meters to the previous state?

"Stop. Stop. Once is enough. You don't need to thank me so much. How about we go to the hospital now? I am sure that Eri is waiting for us."

"Yes!"

Mirio nodded with a bright smile again.

However, when they were about to go to the hospital, Mineta was speechless. "Are we only going to bring apples?" He looked at the basket of apples in Mirio's hands, and he could only shake his head.

"What's wrong with apples?" Aizawa was confused.

"Eri is still in the hospital, and isn't it normal to give fruit to the patients?" Mirio asked in confusion.

"....."

Mineta slapped his forehead, then sighed. "You guys must not have an experience with a woman, right?"

"....." Mirio and Aizawa.

"Fruit is good and all, but you know what kind of torture that Eri has encountered, right? Don't you want her to show a bright smile like a normal kid her age?"

Hearing his words, they somehow realized why this guy was popular among women.

Mirio wasn't blind, and he could tell that Mineta had a suspicious relationship with Nejire, but it was okay since he could tell that Nejire was happy. As for Tamaki? He felt that Tamaki needed to learn how to talk while looking at someone's eyes first before he talked about romance.

"Okay, let's stop at the department store and learn from me since this way, you will know what to do next time."

"Yes!" Mirio nodded like a good student.

Meanwhile, Aizawa didn't complain and followed Mineta quietly, which was an amazing thing for him, who had always done everything in an efficient manner; for the first time, he felt that being efficient wasn't all good.

With the budget received from the government, Mineta didn't hesitate and bought many things, including some foods that he had always wanted to try. He knew the government would be more than happy if he used the people's tax money, so he didn't hesitate to use it.

"Now, everything is ready. Let's go!"

Looking at many things on their hands, they once again understood why this guy was popular with women.

---

Eri sat on the bed of her room quietly. She might have asked to meet Mineta, but it didn't mean that she was going to be unreasonable and throw a tantrum. With how she had been treated before, it was impossible for her to act like a kid around her age. She could only stay quiet, hoping that her nightmare would end.

Now, her nightmare had disappeared, but she didn't know what to do.

No one had ever taught her how to play and have fun.

All in her life was nothing but misery, so she was a relatively docile and obedient little girl.

Being able to live without any pain anymore was something that she was glad for. However, those adults thought that she was pitiful and asked her whether there was something that she wanted. Whether it was a doll, sweets, or many others, as long as she asked, they would give her anything.

Eri's Quirk was powerful, and it had the potential to make someone immortal.

Even if they didn't live an immortal life, they should be able to have a long life.

Naturally, this was an investment, so as long as she asked, they would give her anything. More importantly, they knew for such a little girl, no matter what her wish was, it was cheap. No matter how expensive it was, it was nothing compared to the amount of tax paid by the people in this country.

However, her wish was something that they couldn't grant.

"I-I want to meet that Onii-san..." Eri blushed as she asked that request.

"........"

If it was other heroes or even All-Might, they could do it, but if it was "him," they couldn't do anything.

Mineta's status was special, and his importance wasn't even lost to Eri since he was the only one who could support peace in this country.

While Eri's importance was only for their selfishness, Mineta's importance was for everyone in this country.

After all, no matter how strong Eri's Quirk was, if they were bombed by Hokusai, their lives would disappear.

However, with Mineta, they didn't need to worry about Hokusai.

Still, Eri didn't know their difficulties, and she remembered his warm hug, gentle voice, and sense of security that he could only give. Even now, her body was trembling, but when she was in his arms, she felt like she could sleep without worrying about anything since she knew he would protect her from anything.

Her wish was simple; she wanted to meet him, that's all.

While the government was helpless, they could only try. Anyway, they also felt that it wasn't bad to leave Eri to the Yuuei, especially with Mineta and Aizawa there. As long as the two of them worked together, no matter how strong the villains were, they could only be reduced to dust.

Leaving Mineta aside, they contacted Aizawa, telling him about Eri's wish, which he could only sigh and try.

Fortunately, Mineta agreed.

Naturally, Eri didn't know anything since everything was going to be a surprise since they felt it was more fun that way.

The nurse, who sat next to Eri, smiled and asked, "By the way, Eri, someone will visit you."

"Who?" Eri asked curiously, but then, the door of her room opened, and three large dango dolls appeared. No, those dolls were held by three people.

"We are a dango family. We're coming to visit a good girl! By the way, I am a naughty, roasted dango!"

"As for me, I am the dreamer, moon dango!"

"......"

Aizawa felt two stares at him, which made him sigh. "I... I am the prim dango, sesame dango."

Mirio and Mineta nodded with a smile.
