Kamakura.
It was the old capital city during the Kamakura period.
All-Might, Aizawa, and the president of Hero Public Safety Commission were in the car together in this city with the intention of visiting the house of a certain someone.
"Why are you with us?" Unlike All-Might, Aizawa was quite blunt, looking at the madam president with an unpleasant expression since he knew that this woman might involve Mineta with a matter of politics and other things.
To be honest, even Aizawa was proud of Mineta, but this and that matter was different. He felt it was too early for Mineta to carry a heavy burden known as a symbol of peace. Unlike the madam president, his purpose in coming to Mineta's house was simple: to reassure his parents and Mineta, letting them know what Yuuei would do to ensure the safety of their students.
However, he felt like it was Yuuei that might be protected by Mineta somehow.
As for the other things, he wanted to see Mineta's reaction when everyone told him he was the next symbol of peace.
If Mineta was happy, Aizawa was going to scold him since it was too early for him to bear the burden of maintaining peace and stability in this country.
If Mineta was anxious, Aizawa was going to tell him that he didn't need to worry about anything since no one was forcing him to do anything.
However, the appearance of the madam president changed everything.
Aizawa knew that the madam president's purpose wasn't so simple.
"What do you mean? I just want to see such an amazing student who has saved everyone during the Kamino ward accident and also tells him that we are from the Hero Public Safety Commission and the government are all thankful for him for protecting everyone."
The Madam President didn't seem fazed when she faced Aizawa's indifferent expression. Instead, she answered him calmly and kindly as if she wasn't affected by him.
While Aizawa's tone was far from good, she knew that Aizawa was a good person, so she didn't show much change in her emotion when she faced him. Or, her emotion might have died after she became the president of this organization since this organization was far from bright, and she also had seen so much darkness in the hero industry, which was why she approached someone like Aizawa and All-Might, who could wholeheartedly think to protect everyone like a hero should be.
"Calm down, Aizawa."
All-Might stopped Aizawa, then said, "You can't be so rude to her, but madam president, let me remind you." He stared at the madam president with a firm and solemn expression. "I won't let you make him into a tool for politics."
"?!"
Even if All-Might wasn't in his strong stature and all bones and skin, his gaze caused the madam president to shudder.
'As expected, the number one hero...'
She took a deep breath and said, "I won't do that. You can believe me."
"That's good."
All-Might nodded and closed his eyes to rest. His body was wrecked, and he had been so busy with many things for the past few days that he didn't have time to rest. While the doctors had told him to rest, he knew that this wasn't the time since he needed to talk with that young man first.
However, suddenly, a picture of a certain young man who had moved his heart in the past appeared, yet strangely enough, it only made him sigh, thinking that he really might have made a wrong decision.
Without anything to talk about, the three fell into silence before they gazed into the clear, beautiful ocean of the Kamakura beach absentmindedly, thinking that everything was so hard.

"Go back!"
Mineta's mother roared before she closed the door of her house forcefully.
"........" 3x
All-Might, Aizawa, and madam president couldn't say anything when they saw Mineta's mother, who looked at them angrily and just closed the door rudely.
Yet, what could they say?
"Hey, you can't be so rude!"
"Do you want your son to die, you heartless bastard?! They're so useless that they can't protect their student, and they even let our son protect all of them?! Number one hero? It's so funny that everyone calls him that."
"....."
Aizawa, madam president, and All-Might didn't say anything and just lowered his head.
Even if the door was closed, the voice of Mineta's parents were quite loud, and they heard everything.
"At least listen to what they are going to say first. Also, you should know his decision, right?"
"But..."
"Do you think that you can stop him?"
"....."
Then, soon, the door was opened again, showing the appearance of Mineta's parents.
His father was awkward, but his mother was still angry.
"Please come in."
The three entered quietly with a slightly awkward atmosphere. They might have seen many important people, from the president, and the richest people, to many things, yet somehow in front of Mineta's parents, they were so nervous that they almost couldn't say anything.
"Oh, right! I almost forgot!" Mineta's father slapped his forehead and said, "He isn't here. Let's walk out."
"Huh?" 3x
"What do you mean?" Aizawa was confused.
"Let's talk while we're walking. He should be there."
The three looked at each other before they followed Mineta's parents.
As they walked, they talked to each other.
"To be honest, I am surprised he can develop his Quirk to such an extent. He is so powerful that I can't imagine it before."
"That's true."
No one could imagine how a sticky ball could become a super ultra-powerful Quirk, which was enough to smash anything or even call thunder. The toughness of his body aside, they couldn't really understand how he could become half dragon-man and also launch a powerful attack, which was enough to shake everything.
"Well, no matter what, he is still our son, so I hope you don't hurt him."
"That's the last thing we will do, sir."
They nodded as they followed him while thinking that they were good parents. Still, as they walked, they couldn't help but feel curious.
"Where are we going?" The madam president asked.
"Tangerine orchard."
"Tangerine orchard?" 3x
"You should know his job as an All-Tuber, right?"
They nodded since it was an open secret that he was a famous All-Tuber.
"He bought a tangerine orchard from the money he got from an All-Tuber."
'Bought?!' 3x
They couldn't imagine how Mineta was going to spend his time in the tangerine orchard, but soon, they understood.
The tangerine orchard was located near the beach, and they could even see the sea from a distance, but they were more attracted to the luster tangerine orchard in front of them. The orchard was about five to six acres, and the tangerines were. Unfortunately, it wasn't the time of the harvest since it was still summer.
Yet among those tangerine trees, they saw a figure.
This figure was the one that they were looking for.
He stood there, observing the tangerine tree with a farmer-like outfit, yet the madam president had to say that this guy was really handsome.
When they were there, he also seemed to notice them. He smiled and greeted them cheerfully, "Yo, Aizawa-sensei, All-Might-Sensei, an..." He was unfamiliar with the last person, but...
*Ding!*
<Ishihara Yua (Madam President)>
<Charm: 5>
<Pass!>
"...."
He often thought that the system was a bit too much.
