120 Villains VS Heroes Part 1.
I apologize up front to people who wanted a new chapter yet it never came. I really wanted to continue it much sooner, but I didn't really have the motivation to do so and my health problems didn't help either. One of the reasons for stopping was the continuous flame from people on my novel and I even received death threats. Some people spammed my novel with 1 Star from their fake accounts and said stuff like: Kill yourself, N***er, Naz*. While I understand that my novel isn't good, nor is the grammar or story perfect, it really saddens me when people acted as they did.
Thankfully, Webnovel or the people in question removed the death threats comments and reviews they sent. I am honestly not sure what to do as I want to finish this story even if I know I am not a good writer. It just irritates me to drop a 100+ chapter story but I really don't know what to do. For now, I guess I will write chapters until I decide what needs to be done. I also apologize to the one patreon guy I had for not posting anything even though he gave me money. Well, he ditched me now anyway so at least I don't need to be stressed out that I have to write chapters for him, hehe.
Anyway...I did not write anything in a while so the quality of the upcoming chapters might not be the best. Hopefully, you will still enjoy it.
✱✱✱
Silence enveloped the room. All Might and his class looked at the black screen in front of them, awaiting the results.
"Who do you guys think will go first? I hope it won't be me. I am so nervous..." A beautiful raven-haired girl, in a spiky ponytail, muttered under her breath.
Yet no one replied to her, as if in trance. Everyone was busy looking at the giant screen.
She clenched her fists and looked towards the person who could at this moment, reassure her the most. Her only hope and her only pillar of support, other than her parents.
To her right stood a tall green-haired boy. If you were in a crowd, you could easily spot him, not only because he has such beautiful and unique green curled hair, but because he was also monstrously tall, as 194 centimeters was nothing to laugh at.
That was way, way above the average of Japan. Of course, there were exceptions like All Might, but that's not the point right now.
Despite all of that, he has a kind face and with his deeds, he has won over her heart. Like a knight in shining armor. The knight, she always wanted to meet, like in the books she used to read. Being saved by a knight was her dream and it came true.
Not only did he give her a boost of confidence when she needed it the most, but he also saved her from being kidnapped a while ago.
Even though the methods he used to take care of the kidnappers weren't heroic, he saved her life nonetheless and that was the point where she completely fell in love with him.
'I will win him over one day, I just need to utilize my charm. My mom always told me I was beautiful, yet I never cared about it, as what's beauty for anyway? What matters is what kind of person you are, what matters is what is inside of you, the outer appearances were just to show off. But then...'
She looked towards a certain explosive girl, who was already cute beyond compare, but now, she even used make-up. During her exchange with Izuku, she noticed that he was dumbfounded for a few seconds before he tried to hide it away.
'I never cared, yet now it seems like I need to utilize my appearance as well, to make sure I won't lose. After all, there are just so many pretty girls in my class. The competition is fierce.'
While thinking about such pointless thoughts, she completely forgot about the stress and butterflies in her stomach. She, herself was surprised with this, and yet again, figured it was because of Izuku.
She straightened up her hero suit, she knew it was too revealing, but to utilize her quirk, she had to undergo this sacrifice.
'I...just hope he won't think I am a lewd girl for dressing like this...on second thought, my hero suit is just too revealing, I should probably wear something that covered me up a bit more.'
The people in question were indeed Momo Yaoyorozu, and Izuku Midoriya, the most intelligent pair of students currently in the U.A. University
'He seems so spaced out. He doesn't seem to be even a little nervous. Oh, how I envy that.' She continued staring at him while ignoring the looks of some of her classmates.
"She has hots for, Izuku Midoriya too, huh" A certain half-and-half girl muttered.
*Beep* *Beep*
It wasn't the first time Momo was feeling nervous, so you would assume she has gotten used to it by now, and yet, the chummy feeling inside of her stomach, as if hundreds of butterflies were trying to escape her body, was the proof that even after experiencing fear and stress countless of times, the feeling never truly went away.
It just hides, deep down inside of you, waiting for you to encounter something that will trigger it at the worst time possible.
*Beep* *Beep* *Boop*
{First round.}
[Heroes: Shiro Todoroki and Katsuro Bakugo]
[Villains: Izuku Midoriya and Denki Kaminari]
Seeing that her name wasn't displayed, Momo let out a sigh of relief, "At least I am not going first...good luck to you Izuku-dono"
Izuku nodded without turning back. It was time for him to make a game plan against his opponents.
"Oi, oi...that's a deadly combination. Are you sure we can do this? Those girls are vicious..." Denki was getting restless.
"No worries, they are my friends, but I won't be holding back because of that. We will definitely win this." Izuku replied without caring that much. It would appear so, but in reality, he was feeling joy.
'Sorry girls, I will get this one to matter what.'
«---------------------------------------------------»
Mission: Win the HeroXVillain match up.
Objective: Show off your might and make sure the heroes lose.
Reward: Gain five random skill points.
Failure: Lose five random skill points.
«---------------------------------------------------»
"Yeah, yeah...whatever you say. Not only am I lazy, but I am also dumb, and I don't plan on losing even more brain cells in order to come up with a plan." Denki shrugged his shoulders and left everything to Izuku.
On the other side, Shiro slowly walked up towards Katsuro and didn't say anything.
They both stood there awkwardly until Katsuro broke the silence.
"We need to show Deku what we are made of. I am sure if we try hard enough, we can beat him."
Her words sounded reassuring, but in reality, she was only trying to reassure herself. She highly doubted they could beat him together. He was simply too strong.
Shiro noticed that her hands were shaking and replied, "Still can't remove the source of anxiety, huh… When the obstacle is within you, it would be possible to improve yourself until it is overcome. Don't worry, even if we lose, one day, we will prove our worth to him...Ah, I am quite terrible at comforting people, after all, my apologies."
Shiro herself was surprised as this was probably the most words she has ever said at once.
Seeing the cold and formal Shiro out of character, Katsuro couldn't help but curl the corners of her lips into a smile.
"Yeah! One day I will show him!" her spirit was reignited and she was ready to throw herself into the battle. Wearing makeup and stuff almost made her forget who she was in reality.
Looking over at his students who were full of resolve, All Might eagerly smiled and announced, "FOLLOW ME! I SHALL SHOW YOU THE WAY!"
Other classmates bid them farewell and turned their attention back to the screen.
"Who do you think will win, ribbit?" Tsuyu asked in anticipation.
"Isn't it obvious? The results are already out there! Izuku Midoriya will be the winner!" Tokoyami announced.
"While it's true that Izuku-dono is incredibly strong, he has Denki with him. Although we have yet to see his full power, I would say that he is weaker compared to them. Bakugo and Todoroki are some of the strongest students in our class. I don't think he can handle them alone. This will be a tough match." Momo concluded.
"Mhm...Maybe, well, it's still just a practice match." Ochaco said and continued, "I hope they don't get too hurt."
✱✱✱
All Might and his four students arrived in front of the building. He took out his walkie-talkie so that everyone could hear him.
"AS I HAVE PREVIOUSLY MENTIONED, THE BATTLE WILL BE AN INDOORS BATTLE. FOR THIS TRAINING, THE VILLAIN TEAM WILL GUARD A NUCLEAR BOMB THEY INTEND TO USE TO DESTROY THE WORLD."
Hearing his explanation, everyone couldn't help but smile.
*Cough* *Cough*
"THE HEROES MUST STOP THEIR NEFARIOUS PLOY BEFORE THE TIME RUNS OUT! IF THE HEROES CAPTURE VILLAINS OR REACH THE NUCLEAR BOMB BEFORE THE TIME RUNS OUT THEY WIN."
"ALTERNATIVELY, IF THE VILLAINS MANAGE TO KEEP THE BOMB SAFE OR IF THEY CAPTURE THE HEROES, THEY WIN!"
"Seems simple enough," Izuku stated.
He walked over to Denki and whispered the plan he thought up a few seconds ago.
"You and I, Deku, get ready." Katsuro grinned. It was her usual tomboyish grin, ready to whoop some ass.
Izuku turned around and faced Katsuro "I was born ready, Kacchan." he replied with a smug of his own.
The villain and the hero team stood in front of each other, generating a fighting spirit. Well, at least...most of them.
"Oi, Oi...your plan is alright but...it has a giant plot hole. How do you expect me to deal with the half-half prince, there is no way I can take her on?!"
"Don't worry, all you need to do is to defend the nuclear bomb, simple, right?"
"Like hell it is! If she uses both of her powers at once I am toast, heck, she can crush me with just one...There is nothing easy about that!" Denki panicked.
The duo of heroes wished the villains good luck and left the building together with All Might.
Izuku did a few light stretches before the exercise began. "Now, now, stop complaining! Don't worry, after I take care of Kacchan, I will come back to help you, just hold her off for a bit, will ya?" He went to his designated spot and left Denki behind.
"Jeez...man...you are making it so tough for me...I like to smooth sail through life." saying that, Denki put both of his hands behind his head and laid down in front of the bomb. He closed his eyes and patiently waited for his opponent.
"There is no need to feel stressed out, it's just a practice. Time for a nap."
✱✱✱
All Might entered the monitoring room and witnessed an uproar.
"How can he just go to sleep right there?!"
"Ah stupid mortal, may god of darkness kick you in the butt!"
"Sleeping in the middle of a match isn't very manly..."
"I...I believe he has to have some kind of plan, right? Do you think that Midoriya san just told him he will take care of both of them at once?"
"He is most likely stupid, I am pretty sure he stated that in his introduction before. What an aloof guy."
All Might put one of his hands on his face and sighed, 'I really have no idea how to teach these children...'
*Click*
The door to the monitoring room opened, revealing Aizawa in his yellow sleeping bag.
"Aizawa-sensei! You are finally here!"
"Come and look at the match, it just began!"
Aizawa unzipped his bag and stepped out of it, he nodded to his students and turned towards All Might, "I see you've managed. Good job."
"A-AIZAWA...YOU PROMISED YOU WOULD HELP ME WITH MY JITTERS!" All Might tried to whisper but everyone in the room could still clearly hear him and they couldn't help but smile.
The strongest, pro hero of Japan, the symbol of peace, was having jitters in front of his students. The situation was very ironic indeed.
"Help you? Why should I? You've managed to pull through on your own, I only agreed to help you if you actually failed."
"A-ALRIGHT..." All Might decided not to push the issue anymore.
"So, who are you betting on?" Aizawa asked.
"T-THIS...I FEEL LIKE THE CHANCES OF BOTH TEAMS ARE REALLY HIGH!"
"Mhm...I would say that's certainly true. I am positive heroes can win just as easily as villains."
"I CERTAINLY AGREE WITH THAT, ALTHOUGH I FEEL LIKE VILLAINS, IN THIS CASE, WILL PREVAIL. BOTH YOUNG TODOROKI AND YOUNG BAKUGO ARE TOO HOT BLOODED AND THIS WILL BLIND THEIR JUDGEMENT. ESPECIALLY YOUNG BAKUGO, SHE SEEMS LIKE THE KIND OF PERSON TO ABANDON ANY REASONING AND JUST USE FORCE."
"That's true. They just need to use their heads properly, which could be a problem for them, however, you are forgetting one crucial thing. Both Bakugo and Todoroki are high in the intelligence department. With good enough strategy, they could win."
Aizawa looked at the screen that was projecting Izuku, walking down the hallway of the building.
'Now, show me Midoriya, how the future symbol of peace handles stuff.'
