Nice to meet you again
«So you say you are being restricted? »
« W-well ... you know ... where I worked, I was tired of everything, everything was infuriating. This terrible routine that went through every day drove me crazy. I have not achieved anything in my life. No family, no normal job, which I don't have now. And I definitely cannot find another. I'm in complete shit, sorry for the expression.» - Jhin was dejected.
« No, no, you have the opportunity to express yourself.» - Victor said waving his hand, « Did you think about heroics? Because you have a sports uniform and I see that you are not a weakling.»
Jhin put a finger to his chin and tapped it on it. To be honest, he never saw himself in this. Of course, before his life routine was formed. But now, at the moment of his boring life, he sees heroism as the best way out. Then in the bar, an offer from Victor lured him. He did not know then who Kizaru was, so he was drunk. Sitting in his office and conducting this dialogue with him, he realized that he needed adventure and new joy in life.
«I was thinking that your idea suits me very much Kizaru-sama. Well, how would I get into heroism then? I don't seem to be the age to be able to get a heroic license. I'm right? »
«Mmm ~, no.»
« What? Really? »
« Yes, you have the right to do so. But there are limitations and these limitations are set personally by me. After that night at the bar, I asked my acquaintances about this case. You see, TOP 3 heroes have the right to issue a license. Since we have influence and our opinion is of great importance, from the fact that we personally issue a license, no one can complain to us.»- fixing his gaze on Jhin's face, Victor continued,-
« Let's talk about restrictions. It would be correct to say only one limitation. The funny thing is, you can't separate from me. This means that you will not be able to quit your job and create your own agency. You will work as a sidekick.»
« Sidekick? » Jhin asked.
« Exactly. The sidekick is the same hero, but a little lower. To put it right, you are my assistant. You will be given the same salary as other vigilantes, and there are only two of them. My student and now you.»
« So you gonna give me a license?» - Joy grew in Jhin.
«Don't be in a hurry, first we have to conduct your check.» - dropping his hand down the table, Victor pulled the handle and opened one of the compartments, he reached out and took out a package of documents. -
«As you sent me your documents earlier, I have them as you can see. Let's go over them just in case, but first of all, on a whim.»
« Good.»
« Your quirk is called "Double". You are able to create a clone of anything and anyone ... And that's all. This is the end? »- Victor raised an eyebrow.
« Yes ... »- Jhin wilted.
« Don't be so upset. This is a very handy and powerful quirk. Tell me about the disadvantages first. For example, their strength.»
«Y-yes, durability… In truth, they are not quite soft either. They will only disintegrate if I so choose or because of the damage done. Also, their strength depends on my strength.»
« Your strength? I roughly understand what you mean, but it would be better if you fully explain, so continue.»
« Good. If I improve the strength of my body, then the strength of the clones also increases.If I train my body, then I will also improve my clones. It is necessary to increase the pain threshold, then the clones will be strong.»
-
«Hmm, very interesting. Not a small potential is possible, but if you somehow can learn one thing ... Huge potential.» - rubbing his stubble, thought Victor,
« The strength is clear. Does your clone have a limit on the number?»
« I don't know, didn't check the ceiling. But I can create a lot of them.»
« Wow, this is a whole army. Okay, we figured it out, but tell me, if you make a clone of a person ... What will it be? I mean in terms of reason.»
« Hmmm ... » Jhin mumbled, «I haven't done this for a long time, but I know for sure that the clones of people I created ... have their own personalities. That is, if I do not set a specific goal for the clone during creation, then it will break out of my control and I will have to remove it.»
« Yes, a medal with different sides. This is a great feature, great for espionage, but it might play a bad trick on you.»
« What do you mean?» - Bubaygavara frowned.
«For example, you are alone at home. You are lazy and do not want to do nothing and you decide to create your own clones. You create them and make them do all the work. However, as you say, they have their own personalities. Soon they will get tired of following your orders and a quarrel will begin. Imagine, there was a fight between you, each clone disappeared, there was only you left - ...
« Where are you leading Kizaru-sama?»
« I was just there, please don't interrupt».- Victor sighed, and then continued, - « Only you with your thoughts that maybe you are not real, that you may disappear right now, that you may not exist at any moment. Being in constant stress, you will get psychological trauma, split personality, etc. »- Victor finished.
As he continued to explain, Victor unwittingly frightened Jin more and more. After all, he never thought about it, because he simply did not have time, because he was tired at work, and there was no one to take care of him. Perhaps the script told to Kizaru would have come true. He was left without work, and a little later the money would have run out. He would have had no choice but to resort to using clones in various cases to help himself.
His face turned a little blue, and a chill went down his spine. He laughed nervously and then said:
«I don't know how you came up with this, Kizaru-sama. But maybe
this happened ... in a sense, you saved my life from psychological death, no matter how exaggerated it may sound ... But the fact is the fact, you saved me. I thank you for that. »- said Jin
« Heh, read books to know such things, Jin. And for the salvation ... It is my duty not only as a hero, but as an ordinary person. Everyone has a chance and should not be missed. »
- Victor voiced his thoughts out loud, « Okay, we'll probably finish on this, come here tomorrow, then we'll check your skills. Perhaps on this day you will start your work. »Victor smiled.
A smile of his own appeared on Jin's face. He was so happy now, maybe a white streak appeared in his life. If his parents were alive, they would be proud of him.

𝙄𝙗𝙖𝙧𝙖𝙠𝙞 𝘾𝙞𝙩𝙮 , 𝙏𝙤𝙙𝙤𝙧𝙤𝙠𝙞'𝙨 𝙍𝙚𝙨𝙞𝙙𝙚𝙣𝙘𝙚
Today Victor came to Todoroka's house to take the children somewhere to have fun. With Enji, Victor has already met and when they met, Victor received a savory blow in the face.Then another twenty minutes Enji shouted at him that he was irresponsible and a complete fool.
He insulted and said all kinds of things. Victor absolutely did not care about these words, because he knew that Enji did not know how to express her affection in another way. After all, Victor for Enji is like a brother, his best friend and comrade.
When the news of his disappearance, Enji also thought that he would return on the second day, but this did not happen. And then it was bad. It was shitty not only for him, but also for Toshinori and all his loved ones. In the second month after his disappearance, a search was conducted. They had both the culprit and witnesses, but they could not find him in any way. At the meeting, they decided to wait a year, and then they will decide what to do.
That's why when Victor returned, Enji hit him. Because all the nerves and all the bad thoughts that weighed down on him finally slept and he can calm down.
The door opened and a little boy with dark red hair, who looked very much like the elder Todoroki, stepped forward. The boy's name was Toya, and so it is clear whose son he is. He looked too much like his father.
The boy had to look very high, because Victor was huge. You will not see so many such tall people, even if you take into account that this is their usual height. Toya already understood who was in front of him and shouted with all joy:
« Uncle Vic! »
Touya jumped to Victor, who caught him with one arm and hugged him.
« Ha-ha-ha, glad to see you Toya, well, wow, you've grown! »- which head and laughing said Victor. -« You just do not recognize, the spitting image of handsome!»
« He-he-he.»- the boy could only accept the praise, which was nice
Toya's early screams were heard in the house: «Did somebody say Uncle Vic ?! »
Another child's voice was heard. And like lightning, the owner of this voice ran to the threshold of the house. The voice belonged to Fuyumi Todoroki, Enji's second child. Much like her mother and energy from her father. Of course, the hair color: the same color as the mother, but with tufts of orange. This girl so radiated positive and energy.
« Uncle Vic ?! You came back! »- the same rushed into the arms of Uncle Fuyumi.
« Heh, my little princess. You have grown too, I see you have become even more beautiful than before.» - Victor said with a smile. He put her and Toya on his shoulders.
The girl settled down comfortably on her uncle's large shoulders and asked the question:
« Uncle, where have you been? »
« Heh, I've been to an interesting place, one might even say I did not leave, but this is a story for another case. »- Victor smiled lazily.
« We are glad to see you, Uncle. Didn't something happen if you came? »- Toya asked his question.
« Heh, if you only mean that we are going to the park!»
« Yes?! Hooray! »- Fuyumi shouted, Touya was also delighted.
«Okay, now we'll go to your mother, I need to see her.» Holding the children with his hand, Victor walked around the house in search of Rei.
Walking a little further, he found her in the living room with a boy next to her and a baby in her arms. As soon as Rei saw Victor through the cameras in the courtyard, her joy knew no bounds. Therefore, she sent Toya to open the door, since there was nothing to be afraid of.
« Victor-kun, it really is you!» - Rei said with a broad smile, « How glad I am that you are back!»
«Heh, nice to see you too, Rei.»- Taking off the shoulders of the children, Victor greeted. « Why didn't Natsuo come to see me, Huh?»
« Hi, Uncle Vic.» - waving his hand, Natsuo greeted him.
« Heh, hello to you too, Natsuo, would you like to join us?»
« Where are you already going, Victor-kun?»
«Oh, I forgot to say. If the children are not busy right now, I'll take them with me, let's have some fun.»
« Well ... They've done their homework, so ... You can take them with you.» - Turning her head, Rei said, « I'll pick them up now, and you still hold your nephew, his name is Shoto.» - Rei slowly handed the baby into Victor's hands.
« Ooo ~, another handsome in the family.»
