New Ride

Since that day, Kira made and sold his baked bread peacefully on the day while at night, he hunts human scums that roam the street and sometimes even if they are caught by the heroes but as soon as he kills his target, he uses his shadow walk to get out of there.

Due to his level constantly rising when he kills, he could kill some big-time villains easily if he catches them by a surprise attack but he knows it, bit by bit, he's getting stronger than before. When he came out of his second dungeon, his level went up to level 39 but now after a month of constantly killing scums, his level became higher enough to finally get his job class mission.

"Status…" Kira muttered as he thought of going again to a dungeon after the end of the week.

As he looked at his current skills, he noticed his skill levels stopped at 49. He didn't like his chances on that job class mission at all as he still remembers Sung Jin-Woo's experience there, even with all of his skills, he almost got killed and only survived by luck due to his daily mission's penalty.

But nonetheless, if he can't overcome his job class mission, he won't move forward as he's sure that big names like Overhaul, Gigantomachia, and All for One are still way over his head. He needed this job class mission.

So within that week, he prepared his stash of supplies on his inventory while telling his old and new regulars that he might not be back for a while due to a trip.

...

During this month, a few things have changed. Every night, the number of villains doing their questionable activities became fewer and fewer in the city. At one time Kira even got to kill only 3 villains instead of his usual 10 or more and it still continues to lessen to this day.

Quirkless people started to stir the normality of society. Apparently, they took the different schools trying to cover up the injustice of Quirkless students, as a sign to rise up towards their oppressors.

Of course, those that have powerful Quirks like Endeavor looked at their display with condescension but that all changed when the ones with Quirks that are viewed as evil and the ones with weak Quirks started to speak up as well. It even got intense that some of those people began to question the existence of heroes much to the shock of every professional hero.

The heroes tried to calm them down but alas, the people only needed a single time for their heroes to slip and hurt one of them, and they didn't disappoint. One protestor actually got massive burns on his arm courtesy of their #2 hero, Endeavor.

That one moment sparked a massive movement that made some people actually scared of heroes. Based on the recent controversies regarding the heroes lately, many of them actually found them incompetent and corrupted.

The heroes on defense didn't know what to do with this situation then it even got worse when the normally #2 hero Endeavor dropped a few ranks down much to his increasing frustration.

Within that chaotic situation, Kira's kill count still continues and now it is at the number of 236 much to the adding frustrations of heroes and police as some of them are actually starting to give up and let Kira kill. Besides, they thought that Kira only kills criminals and corrupt heroes, not once did he kill a hero without hard-proof evidence or harmed not one officer or any bystanders.

Like what happened in the canon with Stain's infamy, some merchants are starting to make and sell black robes with a hoodie and toy scythes. They started selling Reaper nick nacks and much to the shock of heroes and aspiring heroes-to-be, many people actually liked to buy these things.

Kira's reaction to this news is to just continue his experimental bread recipes while maintaining his poker face showing neither delight nor anger towards this.

After that, his peaceful month came to an end as he got ready to set out on his job class mission.

Day of his departure.

He made sure to lock his bakery firmly then took a cab again but as he did this, he suddenly thought about buying his own motorbike. He has the money now so he thought of why not.

He changed his destination to a motorbike shop then paid for the cab after he arrived there. Different modern motorbikes were displayed at the front of the shop with a few beautiful girls in leather handing out flyers.

He walked to the entrance undisturbed by a few sexy girls looking at him curiously. This is understandable as he is only wearing a black jacket with a hoodie on his back, brown pants, and worn-out sneakers but his face made them unconsciously blush.

The girls quickly got over their trance as they wanted to attract Kira but they were too late as he was already inside.

"Welcome… Sir… is there something I can do for you?" A well-suited guy suddenly came in front of Kira while his first initial smile became more forced as he looked over at Kira's get-up.

"I wish to buy one of your motorbikes," Kira calmly replied while ignoring the clerk's behavior.

"Ah, Of course, of course, well follow me, sir, we have cheapest and affordable ones at the back," The clerk said without a hint of hesitation while maintaining his forced smile as he motioned Kira to follow him.

Kira looked at the clerk stoically as he sighed then followed him.

Usually, a clerk would talk about different kinds of offers to their customers but Kira's clerk was quiet as a mouse as he led him at the very back of the lineup.

Kira followed him quietly but when he looked at one of the motorbikes on display, he stopped and approached it with the total ignorance of his guide.

'For the first time in my life… I think I'm in love,' Kira thought as he approached the beautiful machine. He touched and caressed her carefully then he suddenly broke out his trance and maintained his poker face then called out for a different clerk.

"Excuse me miss, I'd like to buy this now, in cash," Kira motioned for the female clerk near him.

"Huh? Um… um, are you sure sir? That one is over 3 million yen, sir," The female clerk hesitantly asked.

"Do you see me flinching?" Kira asked a rhetorical question in reply while maintaining his indifferent expression.

"N-n-no, sir! Sorry sir, right this way please, we'll proceed to the necessary paperwork then," The female clerk hurriedly said as she grew nervous while bowing in apology then led Kira to the counter.

After a few more minutes, he signed all the paperwork then he placed all 4 million yen in front of the female clerk using his inventory. The female clerk questioned Kira on the extra amount but what he said made the female clerk want to dance in happiness as he said to keep the change then taking the customized helmet that comes with the bike while approaching his new baby outside.

The girls outside were waiting for the rich guy who actually bought that expensive beast of a bike but contrary to their expected fancy-suited guy, the guy they saw just earlier was the one who approached and rode it.

They were all shocked as they all thought that Kira was just a good-looking young man with tight funds based on his clothing but they didn't expect this.

They were all in a state of disbelief when Kira put on his helmet, took his keys, and started it then rode away without even looking at them which depressed a lot of girls there as they all thought maybe they're not that beautiful after all.

Meanwhile, Kira's original clerk grew irritated at being ignored by Kira and taking off without his consent. He angrily made his way to the counter but what he saw was his female coworker celebrating with everyone at the counter, including their manager.

"Uh, can anyone fill me in?" The guy asked one of the celebrating clerks.

*Cough!* "Attention! Without this brilliant young woman by our side now, we've never been able to sell that expensive motorbike so tonight, we're gonna have a party after work!! First drinks on me!!!" The manager announced much to the surprise of everyone there.

After that, while at the party, Kira's original clerk found out that the one he dismissed as a poor bum was actually who bought the motorbike all in cash. That night, that clerk drank to himself until he keeled over then passed out much to the curiosity of his coworkers.

Meanwhile at Kira's side.

He didn't think much of his original clerk as he has more important things he should think about like the possibility of him dying on this job class mission. He didn't grow conceited just because he grew more powerful, he knew if he met a strong-ass villain or hero, his only choice then was to run so he knew his limit.

Kira rode his new bike until he came across a wide opening of grassland. He parked his bike, took out his helmet then placed his new ride in his inventory.

He looked around first to check that no one was nearby then without any more delays, he took out a jade green dungeon key and pushed it forward until the upper part of the key disappeared then he turned it as a 2-meter high red portal came to his view.

Kira looked at it for a while as its color looked ominous for a reason.

"Well then, shall we begin," He calmly said while making his neck pop then he entered it.

His surroundings changed but this time, he was on top of a cliff. He came forward then he saw below him was a mountain surrounded by thunderstorms and on top of that mountain, he noticed a massive mansion was situated there.

Kira immediately took out the new black scythe he got from his previous dungeon run.

*Swish*

He then suddenly brought his left hand and caught something coming from his lower-left side.

An arrow.

He curiously looked at it then directed his attention to the direction it came from, something was hanging by the trees but the closer he looked, he noticed it was not alone.

He looked at their names and he saw they were Dark Elves Archers while their names were in the color orange.

"Tsk, great welcoming you got there," Kira muttered as he crushed the arrow with his fist.

The ones below didn't say anything but just loaded their bows again and took aim then let it fly towards him.

"Hmm, not much as a talker huh…" Kira muttered as he suddenly merged with his shadow underneath him to evade incoming arrows.

The Dark Elves' eyes widened in shock as they all looked everywhere wondering where did their prey go.

"Neither am I," Kira's voice was suddenly heard from the back of the one who shot first earlier.

The Dark elf widened its eyes in surprise and tried to look behind it but all it saw was its own body, moving away from its view until the light in its eyes dimmed.

*Thud*

*Thud*

The sound attracted the other Dark Elves' attention and they were shocked as their leader's head was separated from its body.

They looked at their leader's previous spot and found their prey looking at them with his glowing cold blue eyes while on his hand was his black scythe draped over his shoulder.

*Gulped*

They all unconsciously gulped in nervousness and a bit of fear.

Kira suddenly smirked then jumped down towards them.

"GGGRRRAAAA!!!"

The Dark Elves shouted out in defiance then took their knives and jumped at him all at the same time.

Some might say I'm an Edge Lord but who the f*ck cares. I'm posting one more chapter later as the electricity here just flickered and my net just gave out earlier so expect regular update would go bat-shit.
