"Eve status please."

"Thanks Eve, so what was the good news?"
[Well having adapted to the change in body grade in these last 10 years has allowed you to reach a good standard to the point you are allowed another ability without a break out like last time. Your foundations have also been solidified thus allowing to use your items. *Party horn~* Congrats Rei!"
"The fuck did you get that horn from Eve?!? But that's a relief, 10 years of knowing I have items and a shop though I can't use it causes wonders for ones patience. Can you show me all my current items?"
[Hai hai~

"Wait when did I get some of these?"
[They where the rewards accumulated through the quests you have completed in these 10 years as well as a reward for beating Gran Torino.]
"Ahh~ I see so can I used the body tempering pills now?"
[Eerrrr.... this.... The things is with you having adapted to your current body even by taking one you would exceed the effect of the pill.] Eve says while her voice gets quieter as she speaks.
"....Can I at least give it to someone if they need it?"
[Yes but this only applies with items in the common to super rare sections. Any higher then they would need to have a body grade of equal or higher than the item. Of course this is when you give it to other people. You can still use a ascendant item even it you will technically waste it.]
"Thanks good, Oh yeah Eve can you add a numerical value on how many skills I can have?"
[Like this?
Skills (3/4):
Unlimited Blade Works (King)
Fire Demon Slayer Magic (Super Rare)
Frost Domain (Super Rare)]
"Yeah exactly that. Amazing! Thanks Eve!"
[No problem Rei. ////Blush////]
"D-...Did you just some how vocalise a blush without saying it?" Rei asks with an eyebrow rose.
[What you on about? I didn't blush. Nope, you muse tired you're hallucinating.]
"Aww look at you such a cute tsundere." Rei teased with a joking smile.
[And you're just a stupid idiot Rei!]
Ignoring her remark Rei makes his way to the orphanage.
Arriving, he could see the sister sitting on a bench while watching the children play. Seeing Rei, she smiled and waved towards him.
"Rei-chan? What a pleasant surprise! It wasn't long ago that you visited. Is everything alright with Gran Torino san?"
"Haaa~ 10 years and you still call me chan. and yeah Everything's fine with jichan, he sent me off so that I can prepare for UA." Rei replied with a smile.
"That's good then Rei-chan. Just remember you have to be careful~ If you don't put effort looking manly you'll be hit on by guys you know."
"HMPH! They try hitting on me and they can forget walking."
"Sure sure." Sister said with a smile seeing how expressive Rei is now. Even though he still struggles with strangers and people he's not used too at least it shows he can care for the precious people in his life.
"Oh yeah sister san I don't think i'll be able to visit often anymore. I'll be busy in UA and trying to become a pro hero."
"Well I wish you luck. Knowing you I know you can do it. If I remember correctly they have a UA festival don't they? I'll bring the children to cheer you on ok!" She said with a smile.
"Well I guess I can't afford to waste time anymore can I?" Rei said cheerfully when a little girl suddenly said, "Ah Rei nee-chan smiled! Beautiful~" She cried out when the other kids looked over.
"Oi, Nii chan not Nee chan ok? NII CHAN! I'm a B-O-Y!" Rei said with a tick mark on his forehead.
Playing around with the kids for a bit he bid fare well and made his way to find All Might and Midoria. The kids that were apart of his generation have been adopted leaving the new generation that didn't fear him. Walking with a small smile it didn't take long for him to see All Might with Midoria who was crying after being told he can be a hero.
"Errr am I interrupting anything?" Rei asked
"OH MY GAWD!!! Oh its just you Rei shounen." All Might sighed in relief.
"Oi what do you mean by *Oh its just you Rei shounen* am I not welcome?"
"Nai nai nai. Hahaha oh yeah here meet Midoria shounen the person I have deemed to be my successor." All might said lightly.
"Nice to meet you Midoria, the names Rei." Rei greeted with a small smile while sticking his hand out.
"...." In a daze Midoria watched with a red face.
"HAHAHA It seems like Midoria shounen mistook you for a girl Rei SHOUJO! HAHAHA"
All Might laughed.
"SHUT UP RABBIT HEAD!!" Rei shouted annoyed. Getting out of a daze Midoria realised how rude he had been.
"Ahh....errr sorry I didn't mean too I just never been near a gir-
"BOY! I AM A BOY!" Rei cut Midoria off.
"Ahhh sorry sorry sorry!" Midoria quickly apologised.
"For get it are you not a man? Don't be so wimpy and wipe your face it's covered in tears and snot."
Cleaning himself up Midoria reintoduced him self. "I'm Midoria Izuku, nice to meet you Rei."
"Like wise." Rei replied. While All Might watched the two, he could imagine them in the future heroes side by side helping each other. "OUH MAI GAWD! Such a beautiful friendship!" All Might said while he turned to muscle form crying.
"THE FUCK?! What you crying for muscle Usagi(rabbit)?!?!?"
After having calmed down, the trio had decided to brief over Midoria's training plan "The American Dream" so that he could be a good vessel for One for All. Rei had decided to ask Eve if he could help Midoria out using the pills.
"Hey Eve. Do you think I can let Midoria use the Body tempering pills with out it being detrimental for his body?"
[I'm afraid no Rei. His bodies not prepared to take the stress. It'll so more harm than good. He should use it after the American dream for it to be very effective for him. But if you ask me you should let him use the Weighted Training gear (10kg) at this moment of time. You don't need it since your body can easily adapt to that weight with no problem.]
"All right thanks Eve. How to I withdraw then from my inventory?"
[Just imagine reaching into a portal to you inventory whenever put your hands into a pocket or bag to make it less suspicious. and then just tell me what you want to withdraw and it should materialise in your hand.]
"Well seems easy enough."
"*** *** REI SHOUNEN! REI SHOUNEN! CAN YOU HEAR ME!" All Might shouted in his ear.
"Oh my god. YES I CAN HEAR YOU!"
"Phew. You sat there in a dazed then I had though something went wrong." All Might said in concern.
"Nah its nothing I was just think about how to help Midoria. Here Midoria, I have a set of training gears that's for the wrists and ankles. Their 10kg each and it should help you out if you start use it half way though the American Dream. I'll give it to you now just let me get it" Rei said as he reached into his bag and pulled out four bands with 10kg written on each of them. Handing over the first two Rei said to Midoria.
"These ones are for the wrists and these ones are for the ankles, you just put them on and you'll feel the weight. I recommend using the ankles ones straight away and then the wrist ones like I said before, half way through or 5 months into the training. In these 10 months i'll probably drop by every so often to help you train."
Thanking him Midoria took the weights and attached two straight away onto his ankles.
"Hey Eve, while Midoria's got ten months to the UA exam it's the same with us. You think I'm ready for the skill spirit's lessons yet?"
[It should be fine Rei, but I recommend you first pick Emiya Shirou as Unlimited Blade Works is your registered quirk so it doesn't hurt to get better. You can also buy another ability and let your body adapt to the power that would reside in your body before using it.]
"Thanks Eve" Rei said mentally before turning to All Might.
"Hey All Might where was the apartment you got for me again?"
"Ah Rei shounen it's Apartment XXXX Room XXX and it's here on the map." All Might said pulling out map.
Watching Midoria looks in suprise and says.
"Umm Rei san... your rooms next to my apartment room...."
At the same time All Might and Rei loomed at him and said.
"Eh..."
