Shoko couldn't stay long, she still had to get home and comfort her sister, she had slept over at my place, and she had missed all of her sister's phone calls while she was doing something decent schoolgirls shouldn't do. I received a sensual kiss from her before I left, and Shoko was clearly reluctant to say goodbye, our intimacy more pleasurable than I'd expected.

While having fun with Shoko, I'd even forgotten a little about a problem that had flared up. Recently on the news, there's been talk of mass attacks and murders of heroes, and according to the police and the hero network, the main suspect is believed to be the Hero Killer, or Blur. The police have photos of him, and when I saw them, I immediately recognised an old acquaintance, the psychotic vigilante Chizome Akaguro. He hasn't changed his image much, except that now he uses a blindfold instead of a full-face mask...and the last time he fought with Castet, he seems to have blown Chisome's nose clean off with his fist, because there's no nose in the photo.

I don't know exactly what happened to him since the last time I saw him. As I understand it, he's gone even more insane, and instead of genocide of criminals, he's decided to genocide superheroes. And as I was going through the list of his victims, I came across the name of Iida Tensei, the hero of Ingenium, and the older brother of my classmate Tenya. The Iida family is known for being heroes. I can see where Iida went after the festival, he went to visit his brother in the hospital ward...his brother was injured multiple times and now he can't walk, and for a hero with a speed-accelerating mutation, that's almost a judgement call.

Indirectly, it's my fault. On that unfortunate day, I could have detained him and handed him over to the police, but on the other hand, there was no guarantee that he wouldn't have escaped from prison or anywhere else, and killing this madman seemed like overkill to me...for nothing.

I had to send drones to monitor all the nearby cities for the notorious psychopath in order to finally deal with the problem.

I spent the rest of my free time on another project of mine. Only this one, unlike the previous ones, is much more complicated.

I had long thought of creating a 'Tachyon Quirk Accelerator'...the name is not patented.

Theoretically, any quirk can go through an 'Awakening' stage, but it requires a condition and environment that threatens the life of the user. Only under such conditions can a Quirk awakening occur. Another option is to irradiate yourself with the maximum amount of energy that the quirk's owner is prone to, there is a high probability that the user will unlock the true potential of their power...again, if they don't die from burns, radiation, shock and so on. I've been using this option, but it looks like I need something a little bit more involved. It's also quite possible to unlock the true potential of your quirk yourself, but to do that, a normal person would have to spend most of their life developing a quirk.

The Quirk Accelerator is nothing but a reactor of tachyons, the fastest particles, the speed of which exceeds even the speed of light. If not to go into quantum physics in detail, the accelerator can maximally 'age' the Plus-Alpha gene, by the time of the organism's evolution, transition into awakening.

Now there is a ready, approximate drawing of the accelerator, in the form of a sphere only very healthy, the final version should be many times smaller and fit in the palm of your hand.

There is still a problem, the materials for its creation, I do not have, and it is impossible to get them legally, of course you can steal them, but it will be very difficult, given that radioactive isotopes, still need to find, in the shop across the street, they are not sold, so we will have to leave this project, for the time being.

The next day, accompanied by a heavy downpour, and Shoko, who stood in the corridor of the school, and saw my person, passed through the main door, immediately rushed to me.

- Darling, I missed you. - Shoko wrapped her small hands around my back.

- In one day? - I lifted her skirt and squeezed her buttocks, good thing there was almost no one in the corridor.

- Mm-hmm. - She pressed her cheek against mine.

- Come on, love. - I fixed her skirt and went to class with her.

- Hi Akira, how... - Ochako was the first to say hello when we entered the classroom and didn't finish when she noticed Shoko. - Oh, Todoroki, where did your scar go?

- I had it removed. I think it looks even better without it. - I stroked Shoko's head, specifically to get one answer from Ochako about what she owed me.

- ...I wanted to tell you...' said Ochako jealously. - ...Never mind. - she mumbled, and sat down at her desk.

- Todoroki-san, you look very pretty without the scar...oh, I don't mean you weren't pretty with it. - Momo ranted, not wanting to offend her classmate with words.

- Thank you, I hear you Yaoyorozu. - She smiled at her, which surprised her, usually Shoko walks around with such a dispassionate face.

Meanwhile, the class was actively discussing about her drastically increased popularity among the common people.

- I was so shy, people were staring at me intently! - Hagakure exclaimed.

- Same story. - supported Kirishima.

- And I was pitied by the kids in the lower grades. - said Sero sadly.

- Akira, you must have been recognised by all the passers-by, kwa? - Asui asked me, keeping a decent distance from me, remembering that I like to spread my arms.

- I haven't been out much these past two days, I've been busy with important business and other things. - I glanced at Shoko, who was standing nearby, discreetly holding onto the edge of my shirt.

- Hey, Akira, you've already done that, haven't you? - Mina asked, looking at the two-faced classmate.

- After the internship, you'll be punished...very harshly. - I whispered in her ear, causing her to smile and whisper something in Shoko's ear, receiving a nod in return.

- Wow, we're famous in just one day!' Ojiro exclaimed, his tail twitching amusedly.

- Good morning. - Aizawa greeted the class, making them all sit down at once and keep quiet. - Today's class hour is going to be special...Time to come up with your nicknames, hero names.

- HOORAY! - Everyone exclaimed and jumped up from their seats at once, but Aizawa quickly quieted everyone down with his eyes glaring menacingly.

- It has to do with the proposals of the professionals. They will only be relevant when you have experience and combat skills, which will be evaluated in the second and third year of training. In other words, the offers now are nothing more than interest in your person and potential. - explained Sotrigolova.

- So it counts for personal achievement? - Kyoka questioned.

- Yes, here is the proposal schedule itself. - Aizawa switched on the projector. - Usually, the schedule is more balanced, but this year, three students got the most attention.

- Don't make a fuss if you haven't received any offers. Yuei will give you a list of forty available internships. - Sotrigolova added to his words, giving the unlucky students a sigh of relief.

- Todoroki got more offers than Bakugou, even though she didn't even make it to the semi-finals. - Kirishima remarked.

- Probably the pro-heroes were scared off by her aggressive behaviour. - Sero deduced, and he wasn't wrong.

- Shut your mouth, Toilet! - Bakugou yelled at him.

- I've been given suggestions! - almost crying, grabbed Ochako by the shoulders, in front of sitting Iida, and shook from side to side. Tenya himself, was silent and calm, understandably so, given his situation with his brother.

- You're as good as ever, Head Girl. - Kendo complimented me. - Eh, looks like I'll have to choose between internships from the school.

- Kendo, if you want to intern with me, I'll put in a good word for you. - I offered to put in a good word for the redhead.

- So, just what internship offers have been handed out? - she tilted her head.

- I have an acquaintance Pro-heroine, it is very long ago, promised to take me on an internship.

- And who will you be interning with? - she asked interestedly.

- We'll go after class and I'll introduce you...if I don't get a kick in the face.

- The hero names you choose can be changed later, but it's better to decide right now. - continued to explain Sotrigolova...apparently on his own example, because hero names, he has not good.

- The names you choose now are the names under which the whole world will know you. - said Midnight, entering the office in her bombshell costume, as always. - Keep that in mind on your way to becoming heroes!

- Midnight will be evaluating your names, choose your name wisely, it should reflect your future. I'm gonna hit the sack. - Aizawa took out his sleeping bag and went to sleep in it, in a corner.

Aizawa was given fifteen minutes to come up with his nickname, and he had to write it on the given tablets. When the time was up, Midnight invited a volunteer to come to the board and present his heroic name. Naturally, no one wanted to come out first and embarrass themselves...no one except one attention-loving weirdo.

- Sparkling hero name: I can't stop winking. - Showed the entire class Aoyama's made-up nickname plaque.

- That's a whole sentence!

- Too long, better shorten it by removing the 'I' and luring the beginning to 'can't stop'. - Midnight made her corrections, but it didn't look any better to me.

- I'm next! - Mina exclaimed. - Call me the Queen of the Aliens!

- B-minus! What, you want to associate yourself with an ugly acidic creature? Remake it! - Midnight reacted in a flash.

- Ugh. - The succubus pouted, sitting back down at her desk.

- Can I go next? - Tsuyu raised her hand and walked over to the board. - Back in junior high, I pondered my hero name. - Her plaque read 'Rain Heroine Froppy'.

- How cute! Simple and cute! - and Midnight clapped her hands together in joy. - Take an example, that's how you should choose your nickname.

- And here's mine - Courageous Hero: Red Rebel! - exclaimed Kirishima.

- Red Rebel, is that out of respect for Scarlet Rebel? - Midnight inquired.

- Right, he may be a bit retro, but that's exactly the image I'm going for!

- Damn it, I can't think of anything good. - said Kaminari.

- You could go with Girnest Ikpukryguay. - Kyoka suggested, of course, just making fun of Denki.

- Oh, it's like the author of Ernest Hemingway's Goodbye to Arms, how intellectual. - thanked her naive kid,

- God, I didn't even pretend I was joking, hee-hee. - Jiro turned away and covered her mouth with her hand to keep from laughing at the whole class.

- It's not funny, stop mocking me! - he took offence. Eventually, Kaminari picked up the nickname 'Electro-Zuma', from the words 'electricity' and 'inazuma'.

Classmates came up one by one, demonstrating what they had come up with. Some came up with something original, but for the most part, it leaned towards something corny, like Ojiro going by the name 'Tail Man', or Sato, aka 'Sugar Man', or the same Hagakure going by the nickname 'Invisible Girl'.

There were more creative names, too. Momo went by the name 'Creative', which suited her quirk, and Itsuka did the same, going by the name 'Battle Fist'. Kyouka chose the name 'Earplug', and Uraraka, used her own name for her hero name and it turned out to be 'Urawichi'. Mina, at this time, only came up with 'Pinky', not a bad choice considering the nickname is associated with her skin colour. Sero chose 'Cellophane' by the way, and the six-armed Shoji 'Tentacle'. Oh, and that stone-headed guy Koji Koda, I keep forgetting about him, he took the name 'Anima' because he can talk to beasts.

Bakugou, on the other hand, chose a name to match her personality.

- Queen Explosive Killer! - Katsuki introduced her heroic name.

- Definitely change it. - Midnight shook her head from side to side, causing a snorting Katsuki to land back at her desk. - So, who's next? - She glanced around the room, and as if on purpose, she smirked victoriously at me. - Let the champion of the sports festival show us his nickname.

- If you say so, Midnight-sensei. - I walked over to the blackboard and revealed my name tag 'Hyperion'.

- Hyperion? What does that name mean? - Midnight wondered.

- In Greek mythology, Hyperion is the titan of light. Literally meaning 'shining' god, literally 'the one who goes above', he is sometimes identified with Helios, the sun god. Also, according to euhemeristic interpretation, Hyperion is considered to be the man who was the first to comprehend the movement of the celestial luminaries. - I explained in detail. It would be funny to suddenly be called Tengu, but to be honest, I've never liked that nickname, especially as it means an angry, nosy, flying uncle.

- And you're not only a strong boy, you're also smart. - She licked her lips erotically...a date I set up for her next week.

- Thanks for the praise, sensei. - I landed on my desk.

Next up was Tokoyami, he did exactly the same thing I did, taking something from mythology as the basis of a name. He called himself 'Tsukiyomi', after the moon goddess from Shintoism, she rules the night and the tides.

Tenya and Shoko, on the other hand, couldn't pick something up, so they just put their names in. I noticed that Iida wanted to put something in, but changed his mind, while Shoko just didn't seem to have any ideas. Basically, her name suits her as well, Shoko, an alternate reading of the word 'Garasu' which means 'glass'.

- Baroness Explosive Killer! - presented another option at the end of Bakugou...almost no different from the previous one.

- No good. - Midnight sighed. In the end, Bakugou kept her name for now.

After class, I was going to head out with Kendo to see the person who would be interning me.

- How far will we have to walk? - Kendo asked, heading out the academy gates with me.

- Why walk when you can fly. - I replied and began to float straight up in the air.

- You can't use your quirk outside of school. - she said in a stern tone, crossing her arms at her sides.

- So you want to walk all the way to Tokyo?

- ...All right, I'll close my eyes this time. - She agreed.

- Then I suggest you hold on tight. - I took Kendo in my arms. - Infinity is not the limit! - I soared high into the sky, and moved forward.

It would take me less than a minute to reach Tokyo at top speed, but with a passenger, I had to slow down to a manageable speed. I had a thought of groping Kendo on the flight, but then I changed my mind; I'd still have time to seduce the redhead during my internship.

The hero, or rather the heroine I'll be interning with, was found through my drone, right now she was fighting in the middle of the street with a five-metre tall, anthropomorphic lion, smashing everything in sight.

- Rrrr! - roared the huge lion, hitting the ground with its paw, tearing the pavement clean off.

- Moonfall! - shouted a dark-skinned girl with rabbit ears, being right on top of the lion, and swooped down on him with a powerful kick, knocking the villain's head into the asphalt. It was enough for the villain to lie down and never get up again. - Pfft, lightweight. - Rumi Usagiyama stepped over his head, to the enthusiastic shouts and applause of the common citizens.
