[MHCISQD] Chapter 77: This Time is the Real One?
Added 2023-03-20 20:39:15 +0000 UTCThe train arrived at the station, and then Renault called a taxi.
He was too lazy to wait for the bus.
On the way, he listened to the radio in the taxi, which reported on the situation in Hosu City.
The taxi driver sighed and said, "So many things have happened recently. Just when we had a break during U.A.'s Sports Festival, the Hero Killer appeared, and then there was the large-scale attack in Hosu. I don't know when this will end."
Renault, sitting in the back seat, chuckled and said, "Don't worry too much. We still have Pro Heroes, don't we?"
"Haha! You're right! We still have All Might. If he were there, the Hero Killer and the attack would be no match for him!"
Well, another All Might fan.
But Renault once again felt the true influence of All Might, a single person who supported the hope of the Japanese people and became the Symbol of Peace.
It's a pity that the Symbol of Peace is getting old.
After chatting with the driver, Renault looked at his phone.
In the chat group, many people were frantically mentioning Midoriya or Iida.
Firstly, Iida experienced the Hosu City incident during his internship, and then Midoriya sent a location update from Hosu City. Coupled with the recent events in Hosu City, their classmates were worried but didn't dare to call, so they could only use this method.
And within the group, after a few minutes had passed, both Iida and Midoriya spoke up.
Iida Tenya: "I apologize for causing everyone to worry. The situation in Hosu has been resolved and we're all okay."
Midoriya Izuku: "Yeah, we're fine. No need to worry, everyone."
Neither of them mentioned anything specific about what happened in Hosu, likely due to orders from the Pro Heroes to not let information spread too quickly.
Once the people involved had confirmed that everything was okay, everyone in the group was finally able to relax.
Soon after, Midoriya sent a private message to Renault.
"Thank you for tonight, Renault-kun."
"Don't mention it. We're friends, and it's only natural for me to help in situations like this. But Midoriya, I didn't expect you to already have control over your strength."
Holding his phone, Renault then recalled the speed and strength that Midoriya had shown during their battle earlier.
While it was not as powerful as what he had displayed during the sports festival, there was no doubt that Midoriya now had little to worry about when it came to getting hurt.
Soon, Midoriya's message came back.
"Under Gran Torino's guidance, I'm able to control it to some extent, but my output is still quite small. I need further training."
"Keep up the good work. With continued effort, you'll eventually be able to master it completely. I'm home now, so make sure you get some rest and recover. I'll come to visit you in the hospital tomorrow."
"Okay, goodnight, Renault-kun."
Upon arriving home, Renault paid his fare and unlocked the door with his key. However, when he entered the living room, he noticed that the lights were on and there was a pair of women's sneakers in the entryway.
"Nobody should have a key to my house. Who could it be? And why would they leave their shoes out in the open like this?"
Without making too much noise, Renault changed into his slippers and carefully looked around.
*CLICK!*
Suddenly, there was a sound of a door opening from upstairs, followed by the sound of footsteps coming down the stairs.
*Step!* *Step!*
Renault looked up and gradually went from being wary to being shocked.
What came into view were a pair of slender legs, followed by a somewhat oversized bathrobe, which was clearly Renault's own.
Suzushina Yuriko looked at Renault with blood-red eyes, her hands holding a towel as she wiped her white, long hair. She said in a calm voice, "What's wrong, don't you recognize me?"
Shaking his head, Renault couldn't help rubbing his eyes and carefully observing her.
He confirmed that it was indeed Suzushina Yuriko, and not the previous imposter, as Renault could feel the same Quirk emanating from her.
"How did you know where I live?"
After the shock, came the wariness.
Although his address was not a secret, Renault was still doubtful about the safety of his residence, as someone had entered so easily.
"Your address is easy to find with a quick search, isn't it?"
Wiping her hair, Yuriko came down the stairs and walked past Renault, sitting down on the sofa.
There were still droplets of water on her overly fair skin, obviously indicating that she had just finished taking a shower.
This younger sister was really something, quietly coming in and even using his bathroom to take a shower like nothing.
'However, judging from her appearance, she doesn't seem to be here to cause trouble, and I don't sense the presence of anyone else.'
Renault thought to himself while sensing the surrounding.
Compared to the sensing system inside the training room and the resident support AI Kiryu Sento, both knew that the person coming was Renault's younger sister, that's probably why they didn't take any action.
Renault could only temporarily suppress his vigilance and head towards the kitchen.
"Since you're here, would you like something to drink?"
"Coffee, the best kind."
"..."
Without saying much, Renault opened the cabinet and took out the recently purchased Blue Mountain coffee, grinding it on the spot. Recently, he had been going out for combat training at night.
While donating the money obtained from the gang, Renault also set aside a portion for himself. With his basic needs met, he bought some things he liked but didn't dare to buy before.
After brewing the coffee, Renault poured two cups and walked out of the kitchen, placing one in front of Yuriko. He then pulled up a chair and sat across from her, quietly watching her.
After taking a sip of coffee, a satisfied expression appeared in the girl's eyes. She then lifted her gaze to her brother who watching her intensely and asked, "What do you want?"
"Just after our last encounter, this is the second time we've met. Of course, I want to take a good look at my younger sister."
Of course, the previous encounter with the disguised person did not count.
To be honest, she really looked like him, very much alike.
"Heh..."
With a cold laugh, Yuriko continued to drink her coffee.
Looking at the girl, Renault asked, "Can you tell me why you came to find me? Are you trying to leave the League of Villains?"
"In the first place, I wasn't originally a member of the League of Villains. I came over purely because there were opponents nearby who could allow me to unleash my fighting skills, and then decided to might as well stop by your home."
Renault sensed the obvious disgust in Yuriko's eyes when she mention opponents, but without waiting for him to inquire further, Yuriko took the initiative to ask, "There are a few things I want to ask you. However, for now, let's talk about something else."
