[MHCISQD] Chapter 113: The Legendary Chosen One?
Added 2023-04-07 19:31:09 +0000 UTCThe shopping center they came to today is the one with the most brands and the largest space in this area of Tokyo. It would take an entire afternoon to go through it if they wanted to see everything.
As Midoriya walked, he kept looking around and muttering to himself, "It seems that this place isn't simply compensating with quantity, the diverse body shapes caused by Quirks are quite surprising..."
Tokoyami, dressed in a white shirt and black sleeveless jacket, exuded a gentle vibe as he watched Midoriya. He couldn't help but say, "You'll scare the kid. Stop talking about it."
Renault patted his shoulder and smiled, "It's no use, you know his personality. He always likes to analyze things."
"Well, in U.A.'s words, this can also be considered a characteristic. Not everyone is as proficient as he is in analysis and he can analyze various useful things."
As they walked, a few people next to them pointed at the Class A students in surprise and exclaimed.
"Oh, U.A.'s students?"
"First grade!?"
"I saw them on TV!"
"Sports Festival! Yeah!"
Uraraka was a little scared by their enthusiasm and said brightly, "I didn't expect someone to remember us."
"After all, the Sports Festival is broadcast nationwide, and it's an annual event."
They arrived at the central area on the first floor of the shopping center, which was more spacious than the entrance. They started discussing what they wanted to buy.
Jiro said, "Anyway, I want to buy a bigger suitcase."
"Oh, then let's go together," Yaoyorozu was very interested in shopping and immediately invited Jiro to team up.
As for the others, they each had their own things they wanted to buy, such as hiking shoes or insect repellent spray.
"Well, since everyone wants to buy different things, let's set a time to meet up. For now, we can move around freely, how about that?" Renault suggested directly, seeing that everyone wanted to buy different things.
"Sounds good!"
"Agreed!"
"Where can I buy a picklock set and drill!?"
Grape... This guy had a brilliant performance during the Final Exam, unleashing his Quirk to restrain Midnight and carrying Sero, who had passed out, to the finish line. Everyone thought he would grow a little after that, but in the end... he's still the same.
Hopeless, just give up.
"Well, let's meet here at three o'clock!"
"Yeah!!!" Everyone dispersed and went their own way.
Yaoyorozu looked at Renault, who was alone, and after exchanging a glance with Jiro, she walked up to him and asked, "Renault-kun, do you want to come with us?"
"Hmm?" Renault smiled and shook his head after looking at Yaoyorozu, "It's okay. Tokoyami, Midoriya, and Iida also invited me just now, but I have my own plans, so I declined. You two can relax and have fun, and I don't think you'll have much fun with a guy following you around."
After seeing Renault's expression, Yaoyorozu felt that he probably did have plans, so she left with Jiro.
Taking a deep breath, Renault picked up the guidebook he had gotten at the entrance when he walked into the shopping mall and glanced at it, "Okay, let's go buy what we need and then go see that place."
His gaze finally fell on a large jewelry store located on the east side of the second floor of the shopping mall.
There were quite a few things he needed to buy, such as hiking shoes, a small flashlight for night use, and mosquito repellent spray. Although he could use his Quirk to repel mosquitoes, Renault still bought some, just in case.
The meeting time was one o'clock, and by the time he had bought all these odds and ends, an hour had already passed.
"Ah, time passes so quickly."
Standing in front of the jewelry store and looking at the scene inside, which was mostly girls, Renault scratched his head in frustration. But in the end, he took a step forward and walked in.
In a shop full of girls, a very handsome boy suddenly appeared. What kind of scene would that be?
The answer is that no matter where he went, he would be stared at by many people.
Fortunately, Renault had a strong ability to withstand pressure. After a brief period of adjustment, he quickly chose what he wanted to buy, had it wrapped by the shop assistant, paid for it, and left the jewelry store.
"Phew... I feel more tired than fighting Evolto." Renault put the small box in his bag and went to a nearby beverage shop to buy a cup of iced lemon tea, which helped him calm down.
With the shopping done, Renault didn't feel like moving around for the time being, so he leaned against the railing and watched the bustling crowd below, waiting for time to pass slowly.
"Hmm? What is-"
As he relaxed, Renault suddenly saw Midoriya's figure below, but the person next to him was not Uraraka.
"Did they split up?"
However, Renault quickly realized that something was wrong.
The person in the hoodie beside Midoriya had one hand around his shoulder and the other hand around his neck.
Although he couldn't see the person's face clearly, Renault was able to identify him by his hand, the chin that might have been exposed, and Midoriya's facial expression.
It was Shigaraki Tomura!
Why would he appear here? Was he alone, or was it a planned operation?
"But judging by the way he's with Midoriya, it's probably just an accidental encounter. But what are they doing now?"
Especially the right hand that Shigaraki had on Midoriya's neck made Renault very worried.
The other party's Quirk seemed to be decaying things, where anything touched by their palm would gradually crumble and decay. If it was just hands or feet, it was not too difficult to deal with as you could quickly withdraw and heal any injuries sustained. However, if it was the neck, it would be impossible to save them if something went wrong.
"Tsk, what kind of luck does Midoriya have? He can even run into Shigaraki while shopping. Is it the fate of being connected by One For All and All For One? Or is Midoriya actually the chosen one?"
It was quite possible.
Although he was originally Quirkless, he was favored by All Might, received the inheritance, had an excellent personality and willpower, and his growth rate was surprisingly fast. He's a typical protagonist template.
"But now is not the time to talk about this. I have to help Midoriya out of this situation first."
Looking around, Renault immediately walked towards a safe passage. When he emerged again, he had already reached the first floor and changed into a black hoodie, and put on a mask.
