Chapter 56: Luke and Momo vs. Shoto Todoroki (I)



All Might couldn't believe what he was hearing on the earpiece.

Renji Saionji, known by all as Luke, had a Quirk that let him bestow different Quirks upon the bird?!!!!!

When Mr. Principal had asked him to visit the world-famous tycoon, Reijirou Saionji, he had doubted the reason for it.

However, after seeing Mr. Principal's grave expression, he had humored him by going along with it.

It was then Mr. Principal had convinced Mr. Saionji to let Luke attend UA High School, going as far as to put him on the Recommended Students list.

All Might didn't have much to say at that time.

Sure the boy had a powerful Quirk, but it was only the case with certain scenarios, like all other Quirks, to be honest.

The boy would be a great Hero when it came to reconnaissance and aerial pursuits, but All Might hadn't believed it was on the same level as young Momo and Todoroki's Quirks.

But as he kept listening, All Might's ever-present smile began vanishing slowly.

Did Mr. Principal know about this?! No… No… All Might rejected the idea within.

There was no way Nezu wouldn't share it with him if he had known.

Then All Might remembered why Luke wasn't one of the Recommended Students — because Mr. Saionji had insisted upon him taking the exam.

As Luke finished telling Momo about his Quirk, All Might couldn't help but conclude —

Even if Mr. Principal didn't know what Quirk Luke truly possessed, he knew it wasn't merely gigantifying the bird.

If he were to ignore the boy's Quirk, and through the little interactions he had with him, All Might had always believed that Luke was a unique boy with a good head on his shoulders.

It was more so when he learned how proficient the boy was in Hand-to-Hand combat, trying to make up for his weaknesses.

But… that was only when All Might ignored the boy's Quirk…

This kid… All Might thought, reevaluating Luke without a smile. He is a Top 10 Pro Hero material…

Meanwhile, Momo stared at Luke with blatant shock on her face.

All this time, she had been thinking that the Saionji Group had been taking advantage of Luke's simplicity to obtain some unknown materials for a questionable purpose.

That's why she had put a tracking device on the limo to see if Luke wasn't in trouble… even at school hours. If the car had gone to some unknown location, she would have reported to a teacher.

Only now did she realize how wrong she had been… about everything.

Luke's simplicity wasn't a facade, but it wasn't his true nature as well.

She had always known Luke was smart, as she had pulled up his written and practical examination results. But this wasn't just smart, it bordered on targeted cleverness.

Luke could feed Nyx Inorganic Materials that randomly popped up in his mind.

Those materials then permanently bestowed Quirks upon Nyx.

It was simple, but terrifying at the same time.

She had created five of those materials for him by now. Didn't that mean that the vulgar bird held five Quirks?!

Even more shocking was that Luke managed to hide this fact from everyone!

"I am sorry…" Luke apologized. "… I am not supposed to tell anyone… My father told me that if someone got to know about it, he would pull me out of the school…"

Momo's eyes narrowed. "We are aiming to be Pro Heroes," she said gravely. "To what extent we can use our Quirks will dictate not only our strength but lives… Innocent lives!

"You can't let your father control yourself forever… What's the point of joining UA if we don't get to strengthen our Quirks?!"

Luke looked away, wondering for how long he could stretch this lie.

The moment All Might confronted his father, he would know that he was lying now as well.

But the chances of All Might going to his father, after learning Luke's true Quirk, were low, especially when, unlike Momo, the Pro Hero would have guessed why Mr. Saionji asked Luke to keep it a secret.

Such a Quirk could attract many Villains to target Luke.

It was not something any father would want for his children.

"So," Momo said, sighing, "these Inorganic Materials you said, how do you know their composition in so detail?"

Luke shrugged. "They just pop up in my mind and I put them on paper for you… I mean, hoping you would help me…"

Momo's mouth flattened into a thin line. "If you had explained it sooner, I would have never said no. You could also submit a formal request through a teacher…"

Luke smiled wryly.

Momo shook her head, noticing the time running out.

"Just make sure you don't get frozen," Luke said, nodding at her. "I will take care of Todoroki."

Reluctantly, Momo nodded back at him. As she began walking out of the room, she suddenly paused and looked over her shoulder.

"The crystal you made me create the first time," she said, smiling, "I want it back."

"… Nyx ate it…" Luke looked down, feeling awkward.

Nyx smacked the back of Luke's head. "Then let her create one more… Tch! Clueless moron!!"

Giggling, Momo walked out, creating a pair of heat-generating shoes and gloves for herself.

Behind her, Luke let out a chuckle as Nyx kept slapping him with her wings.

Then, suddenly, Miss Justice said something that sent a chill running down Luke's spine.

[… I wouldn't be surprised if you digested the Swindler Potion right after drinking, too…]

Meanwhile, Todoroki and Shoji entered the building.

The tips of Mezo Shoji's appendages morphed into ears.

"One is on the third floor," he told Todoroki. "The other one is on the stairs between 2nd and 1st floors."

Todoroki walked past Shoji quietly.

"For your sake," he said, putting his right hand on the wall next to him, "I would suggest you step outside."

Then, with a hissing chill, cold began pouring out of his palm, covering everything under a thick layer of ice.

From the ground to the top floor, it took the ice barely moments to freeze the entire building.

Not only the upper side, but even the basement, where the monitoring room was, got frozen instantaneously, making everyone shudder in cold.

Slowly, Todoroki began walking up and found Momo on the stairs, desperately trying to melt the ice pinning her down.

But, with one step, Todoroki reinforced the ice, making it reach up to her knees.

"I'd thought I would find Luke here," he said, sounding disappointed. "Sending you for a frontal assault was stupid… Don't worry. I will unfreeze you after I secure the payload."

Giving a cold shoulder to her, Todoroki climbed up and disappeared to the next floor.

Behind him, still pinned under thick layers of ice, Momo smirked.
