2 2. Some time has passed

It has been exactly 1 year since Mr.Hakuto adopted me.

Right after he realised that a baby was abandoned in an alley, he decided to save me and try to look for a place where i could find a new family. I found this out because the old man likes to speak to me even if i'm only a baby that can't answer back, he told me how he was horrified at the thought of an innocent child being abandoned like that.

-----------Flashback------

So he brought me to his old Japanese styled house, he tied one of his yellow robes around me to keep me warm and he sat down to think about what to do with me.

While he did that, i analyzed him to try and understand what type of person he was. He had a big shiny bald head, huh... i wonder if he waxes it... his eyes were barely open, hell he looked like he took a page straight from Brock and had lines for eyes.

What stood out the most to me was his body... even for being pretty old, i'm guessing about 60 to 70+ years, his body looked like he was a fit 45 year old man from the neck down.

After a closer inspection i saw that his hands looked quite tempered, mostly his knuckles looked like they had been broken a couple of times. A clear sign of some sort of training or martial arts most likely.

After gathering some information on him i decided to wait and see what he planned to do with me.

The old monk stared at as if contemplating something, all while he began making some, sort of herbal tea that gave off a nice aroma.

I tried to hear what he was mumbling but my newborn ears didn't really help, so i waited. After he finished his tea he got closer to me and started to carry me towards his garden, thanks to him being closer i caught a few of the words he was mumbling out.

He was saying something about troublesome, being too old and young people this days. But my focus changed to what was in the garden, it was a training area filled with massive pots that were filled with water, large wooden posts with different lengths even a large log that looked to have indents on the surface that were probably caused by continuous hitting.

The old monk set me down on a chair gently and made sure that i wouldn't be able to fall. Well even if i wanted to i can't even move my fingers willingly right now. So i watched what the strange man was up to attentively, i was intrigued as to what type of training an old man his age could accomplish.

What happened next left me quite surprised at the time... it was the first time i saw a quirk with my very own eyes.

The old man stood facing towards the dense chunk of wood and activated some sort of energy that got pulled towards his fists, and just like that a pair of big metal gauntlets as big as his torso materialized out of that energy.

The gauntlets looked worn but sturdy with big metal fingers that seemed to be controlled by the old fart with the same fluidity as his normal fingers.

He opened and closed his hands a few times to make sure that everything was in order, and then he started to hit the wooden pole with a quite substantial amount of force while doing a horse stance that was commonly used to train your legs.

He kept hitting the wood for quite a long time, until he suddenly stopped and and jumped towards the tall wood poles.

His big gauntlets were gone now replaced by what seemed to be a spear.

By observing the stunt he just pulled off i can tell he also probably has some sort of strength enhancement mixed in. That and the fact that he just pulled two weapons straight out of his ass, make the quirk he has quite the powerful arsenal.

--------End of flashback-----

Lucky for me, the old man grew quite fond of me over a couple of weeks and decided to adopt me himself instead of handing me over to someone else.

And after all the paperwork was done and dusted...

My new name was Ryoshi Kira grandson of Hakuto Kira.

I liked this new name so i was pleased when i heard it for the first time.

One interesting thing i found out was that my appearance changed, but not in the way i expected it to. I'm pretty sure my face is the same face i had in my last life... well i was a baby so my face looked just like every other baby out there... but my hair and eyes on the other hand... my hair turned into a bright green from the jet black that i was used to and my eyes changed from my normal dark brown to a bright yellow that looked almost gold.

And i must say i looked pretty cool with my new changes, this might even help boost my average looks a bit more.

Just like that, my new life as the grandson of a retired pro hero started. This new life was full of monk teachings about spiritualism and life with a bit of appreciation for everything sprinkled in the mix, it was a pain in the ass acting like a child while having to listen to this old fart ramble on about love and peace when i watch him train and throw punches that could snap bones like twigs.

-------3 years later----

I am now 4 years old, a very important age for kids in this world because it is the usual age when their quirk is finally manifested.

And for me it's a very exciting day, because i would finally be able to break my boring routine of having to interact with snot nosed brats all day.

You see, after some time i decided to act a bit more grown up in front of Gramps(old monk) and it paid off by him treating me a bit more like a teenager instead of a toddler. But he said that i should still attend school no matter how smart i was.

But, today was the day that i could expect my quirk to activate at any moment! and i was excited, very excited, because i would finally be able to step on some weaklings after so long.

After a few weeks of waiting i was finally hit with a surge of power unlike anything i have ever felt before. It felt amazing... not only because of the sensation washing over my body, but because i saw a small screen in front of my eyes that finally let me know that i had awakened my quirk.

[Inventory *new items*]

[Map *new zone*]

[Info]

My eyes shone with excitement as my short green hair fluttered a bit from my quick movements. I was running out to the training area to test my new strength, as i got there i realised i was much faster than before... not Flash levels of speed but definitely Usain Bolt levels of speed... this quirk is fucking amazing! i said with a big shit eating grin plastered on my face.

When i got to the training area i decided to first give the big chunk of wood a go to see how strong my punches were. I had some experience fighting from my previous life, so i knew how to throw a proper punch...

I stood looking straight towards the gigantic piece of wood that towered over me... i took a deep breath and i concentrated on calming my mind and breathing.

When i was sure that i was prepared to give it my all, i pulled back my fist and gathered all of the strength i could muster... the second i felt i was ready i let my arm spring straight towards the wooden pole and with a nice solid *bam* a nice amount of kinetic force was transferred straight through the wood.

I was a bit disappointed, but i was pleased with the fact that my strength had made a big leap from the strength of an average 4 year-old straight to the strength of a 10 year-old from doing nothing at all other than awakening my quirk.

After that i proceeded to test everything, and to my surprise most of my physical abilities had been enhanced. From my sight, to my stamina all the way to my reaction time... almost every aspect of my body had been enhanced in some way, not by much, but that would surely improve with time and training.

Having finished testing all of my theories i decided to take a look at my [Inventory] and [Map] to see what the new things were.

[Inventory]-----------------

Great Sword× Gunlance×

Long Sword× Switch Axe×

-------------------------

Ohh how interesting, it's just like the game... well then let's see if i have the starting weapons, i selected the lance at random and a different screen showed me a list of all of the weapons i had in that category.

Since i was just beginning i selected the [Iron Lance | ]

[Iron Lance | ]-------

Attack -- 184

Attack(true) -- 80

Affinity -- None

Element -- None

---------------------

Before i knew it i had a big iron lance in my right hand and a sturdy looking shield in my left hand, it looked kind of plain but that wasn't of importance as long as it did it's job.

The next big surprise was that i felt the information on how to use the lance and shield like i had been training with it for a very long time... it was unexpected but welcome on my part as it saved me a lot of time to learn how to get the basics down on every one of the 14 weapons.

Of course i was not limited to the basic attacks that were implemented into the game, this was real life so i could stab, poke, slash, ram, bash, slide and do pretty much anything i could think of with the weapon.

But just as i was getting into it... i heard the sound of something dropping in the background.. and when i turned around i saw Gramps with his mouth open like in a cartoon almost hitting the ground and with his eyes about to pop out of his sockets.

I just giggled like the innocent child i was and with a thought i made the lance disappear before Gramps had a heart attack.
