UA Sports Festival Part 7

In the waiting room.

Sitting on a chair, Akira is adjusting the camera settings, so he can take pictures of Skadi's moments as a cheerleader, with the best image quality.

"Do you need something?"

Akira didn't raise his head, and asked the young man standing in front of him.

"I have something to talk about, come with me for a bit."

"Can't you just say that here?"

"No."

"Sigh~ Alright."

Akira hooked the camera strap around his neck, and stood up.

"Let's go, Todoroki."

That young man is none other than Todoroki Shoto, and he is one of class 1-A's strongest students.

Todoroki didn't say anything, and left.

Akira followed him without asking much, he knew Todoroki would not answer his questions in this place.

The two left the locker room, and Todoroki walked in without saying a word.

After walking for a few minutes, the two arrived at one of the stadium's entrances.

Todoroki stopped his steps, put his hands in his trouser pockets and leaned against the wall, his naturally cool pose.

"This is a lonely place... So, what did you want to talk to me about? Oh, don't take too long, I don't want to miss the cheerleading show."

Akira said seriously, if he did that event, he always felt like he had lost a hundred million yen on a lottery ticket.

Todoroki didn't react to Akira's words, his facial expression was somber, and his eyes were sharp as if everyone in the world owed him money.

"The feelings I get from you are too similar..."

He looked at his palms, and recalled the earlier human cavalry race, where his headband was snatched away by the young man in front of him.

"I don't really understand what you're talking about, can you use a sentence that people can understand?"

Akira's eyelids twitched, he always doesn't like people who talk in a roundabout way, it's really troublesome.

What's wrong with speaking simply and being easily understood by others?

Is it too difficult?

"Are you... All Might's illicit child?"

Todoroki mentions a problem that has always bothered him since the Physical Fitness Test. The day he saw Akira's strength, he has always felt that it had something in common with All Might's.

And he reached one conclusion, namely that Akira is All Might's son, who was kept a secret from the public.

It's not uncommon for a hero to keep his family members and where he lives a secret, so the villains don't target them.

Todoroki suspects All Might did the same, and did not publish his wife and son.

Akira : "😯"

He was dumbfounded hearing this, it took a few seconds before he responded.

"Pufffttt---- Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha..."

Unable to contain his laughter, Akira burst out laughing.

"What is so funny!"

Todoroki didn't like being laughed at, he said something serious, and not a joke.

But Akira ignored Todoroki, and kept on laughing while holding his forehead, and his stomach was starting to hurt from laughing too much.

The more Akira laughed, the more annoyed Todoroki became, and the temperature dropped a few degrees.

After laughing for a few minutes, Akira's laughter slowly stopped.

"Sorry, sorry, I overdid it." Akira said while wiping away the tears at the corners of his eyes.

He didn't expect that this question, which should have been directed at Izuku, was directed at him instead.

Because Izuku's performance was too ordinary and inconspicuous, no one saw any resemblance in his strength to All Might. On the other hand, Akira was absolutely stunning at the UA Sports Festival, and people seemed to be seeing images of All Might in his youth.

Actually, it's not only Todoroki who suspects that Akira is All Might's illegitimate son, many people including pro-heroes, have this guess.

Only the people closest to All Might can confirm that Akira is not related to him.

"You still haven't answered me." Todoroki reminded.

Akira waved his index finger in front of Todoroki and he said:

"You misunderstood, I am not All Might's son. In fact, he and I are related in any way. We're just strangers who just met. Well, have I satisfied your curiosity?"

"Oh, I see."

Seeing that Akira didn't lie and was telling the truth, Todoroki turned and left him.

After only a few steps, he stopped and said without turning around.

"Even though you are not All Might's son, it doesn't change the fact that you are strong. In the next event, I will defeat you with all my might."

Todoroki clenched his fists, and continued walking.

"Oh, do your best, I'm waiting."

Akira waved his hand.

Looking up at the sky, he saw the dark clouds slowly starting to appear and cover the sky that was originally bright.

"Even the heavens support me acting as a villain."

Akira muttered under his breath and also left from there.

...

At UA Stadium.

"Before we start the final event, there is good news for those who dropped out of the preliminary round!"

Present Mic announced loudly as the audience took their seats after a short break.

"In the end, it's still the Sports Festival! So in order for everyone to continue to participate, we have prepared entertainment events for you! Just look at how excited the cheerleaders we called from America are…"

Present Mic gestured to the cheering American cheerleaders as they waved their pom-poms in the air.

"And let's welcome the main cheerleader! OH YEAH!!!"

After the Present Mic announcement, the female students of UA High School walked out of the entrance in cheerleading uniforms.

"OHHHHH!!!"

When the male spectators saw Skadi who was wearing the cheerleading uniform, the stadium erupted with deafening cheers.

"That's incredible! Amazing! Excellent! This is the best!"

While the cheerleaders were doing their encouraging dance on stage, Akira with his camera in hand, he was continuously taking pictures of Skadi from various angles with his inhuman speed.

He kept praising Skadi's beauty while taking pictures of her figure on stage.

Even a cold woman like Skadi would be embarrassed in a situation like this, especially seeing her Master's behavior, which looked like he was possessed by a ghost. A blush appeared on her pretty face, and she looked even more dazzling.

"OOOOHHHH!!!"

Artificial intelligence in drones independently records Skadi as the main focus. All the men in Japan who saw this scene on TV felt their hearts pierced by Cupid's arrow.

The cheerleading didn't last long, as several female students still had to perform at the next event.

The festive atmosphere gradually died down, and Present Mic resumed his duties as emcee.

"And after this, we will immediately start the final event! Out of 4 teams, 16 people made it to the final round!"

"And the system is a tournament!"

"We will make them face each other, in a one-on-one duel!"

In the field.

The students who participated in the final event were told to draw lots from the box in Midnight's hands.

Quickly, all participants drew lots and the opponent was determined.

"What a coincidence, my opponent is you, Todoroki." Akira said while looking at the screen.

"I will beat you in this round." Todoroki declared a second time.
