144 Waste

What appeared before Nejire was a picture of Mineta's bloody palm.

He used his palm to catch Stain's blade, letting it stab into his palm, and grabbed it without letting it go.

Nejire was too stunned, and she had lost her usual childish smile. Her face was so pale it was as if blood had been drained from her face.

"Minoru!"

She screamed his name subconsciously, ignoring the warm blood on her face.

However, Mineta ignored Nejire and looked at Stain.

Stain, who had been obsessed with his goal, had a clear mind and understood what was happening. The phony that he thought was fake and only thought of to gain popularity and money was protecting someone?

While he was moved by Mineta's courage, it didn't change his decision to kill him.

He knew that this society was already clouded by a dark cloud. The cloud was so thick that no one could feel a single light from the sun.

Alone, he knew it was impossible to erase all those clouds, so he thought to pierce the thickest and blackest cloud. By doing that, the rest would also follow, and the sky would be cleared up.

The word hero would return to how it used to be.

There was no fake hero.

Only the purest one existed.

In his mind, Mineta was that thickest and blackest cloud.

Mineta was strong, popular, and rich. He was simply everything that everyone in this world wanted to be.

However, Mineta was a hero.

This wasn't what a hero was supposed to be.

A hero should help someone without expecting something.

Yet this little bastard did everything to get everything.

The first thing was popular, it was only a small thing, but Stain was sure that it would slowly grow into something more such as wealth and authority.

That also wasn't the end since human greed knew no bounds.

So he was going to erase this boy.

He was going to erase this boy, so no one should follow his example.

Every hero candidate should become a true hero!

"You peony! Even if I am going to be caught, I will—"

Stain didn't finish his words since a blunt weapon smashed his jaw. All his teeth were shattered, and they fell from his mouth. Blood, saliva, and many things fell from his mouth, it was a disgusting scene, yet for him, it was like hell.

His entire body was hurt from his battle against Iida, Midoriya, and Todoroki, but they were nothing from the damage caused by this smash.

His brain was dizzy, but the pain kept him awake.

However, he couldn't look away. His body trembled in fear since it was his first time seeing someone with such cold eyes. In his eyes, he could see that he wasn't much different from a bug that could be smashed anytime by his hammer.

Unlike other heroes who would do their best to defeat and catch the villain.

He could feel the bloodlust that was emitted from this boy.

'I'm going to get killed!'

If he was killed by All-Might, he didn't care and even felt happy since All-Might was a true hero, yet the one who was going to kill him was this fake!

The fake that he thought would be helpless under his blade.

When he died, he knew that his death would mean nothing to the world. He could imagine that he would become Mineta's stepstone to gain more popularity. As for him, who died, he would become nothing and be forgotten. He would really become a bug that died on the side of the street.

Ignored, helpless, and would be forgotten into obscurity.

All of his hard work in the past would become meaningless.

Nothing changed, and everything would be the way it was.

When he thought of this, fear appeared in his mind since it was impossible to accept such a death.

His death should be remembered by everyone, and it should be able to change everything.

He wanted to run away, but before he was able to move, another smash came and shattered his legs.

*Crack!*

He couldn't even moan in pain with his broken mouth and jaw. He could only let out a strange noise from time to time as his legs were twisted.

He could no longer run, and he fell to the ground, yet he couldn't look away from Mineta's eyes. Mineta's eyes were menacing. It was like he saw the god of death itself staring at him and was about to drag him to hell.

This gave his body shiver and fright, yet he could do nothing, especially when another hammer came, and it was aimed at his skull!

He knew that he was going to die helplessly like a group of ants that was played by a group of naughty children. His head would explode, and his brain juice scattered everywhere.

However, when the hammer was about to come, Nejire and Ryukyu jumped and stopped Minoru.

"Minoru!" 2x

Mineta woke up and looked at the two helplessly. "Thanks."

Nejire and Ryukyu sighed in relief and then looked at his palm, which was stabbed by a sword.

"Is your hand alright? Does it hurt? Ah, ambulance! Where is the ambulance? Hurry up and come!" Nejire panicked and kept saying something.

"You almost killed him...." Ryukyu said quietly with a helpless sigh.

The two didn't care about Stain, but they didn't want Mineta's future to be stained by Stain.

"Sorry." He really planned to kill Stain before. As for the consequences, he felt that everything would be okay since he could imagine how everyone would try to hide this fact, especially when he was close to Momo and Nezu. He was sure that the two would do their best to help him. Even Nejire and Ryukyu wouldn't blame him and do their everything to help him.

However, he knew how troublesome this situation would be, and Stain, as his name would become a stain on his record, made it impossible for him to enter politics.

His dream of creating a political party that controlled this country would be impossible to achieve.

If he was going to kill Stain, he had to do it where no one could see. He glanced at Stain, who had passed out before he glanced coldly at the two peeking toms, but he was pulled by Ryukyu and pressed on her breasts.

"It's okay. It's okay. It's not your fault. If you're not there, Nejire is going to be killed. You have saved her." Ryukyu hugged Mineta tightly and pushed him onto her chest without letting him go.

He felt her breasts for a while and decided to let them go for now since, in his eyes, they were already impossible to escape.

Soon, the police and ambulance came, bringing him to the hospital and leaving this matter to a conclusion.

However, it was a different matter for Shigaraki and Kurogiri. When they saw his eyes, they felt a threat of death, which made them want to run away. They might have killed many people, and they thought that they were ready to die, but when death was about to come, they realized that they weren't ready since there were many things that they wanted to do.

Unlike Shigaraki, who stood in fear, Kurogiri quickly reacted and quickly ran away by using his "Quirk." The two quickly arrived at their home base and fell to the ground.

"Ha... Ha... Ha..." 2x

Their breathing was haggard, and their bodies were so weak.

"Welcome..."

The voice on the monitor welcomed the two, but then he noticed something strange.

"What's wrong?"

Neither of them talked since they were still in fear, but Shigaraki thought that person might become his ally.
