[MHCISQD] Chapter 314: Chance Encounter in the Night

After leaving the house, it was just around noon.

Renault didn't know where to go at the moment, so he didn't think too much and simply chose a direction, riding his motorcycle and heading forward.

Although feeling a bit lost, Renault still knew he had to have lunch.

He found a ramen shop and walked in right around mealtime.

After casually eating a bowl of noodles, Renault didn't linger at all. He left directly and then found an internet cafe, booked a private room, and settled in.

Opening his computer, Renault, for the first time in a while, spent the entire afternoon playing games alone.

He wanted to let off some steam.

He initially thought he could handle it, but after actually doing it, he couldn't help but think more about it.

Those were all villains, Renault understood that and was well aware of the consequences if left unchecked.

Moreover, an organization that could hide for so long and develop to this scale, even if Renault were to report what was happening here, he believed the other side would find a way to escape without leaving any evidence.

During a break in the game, Renault opened a web page and took a look.

Online, the events in Deika City had completely erupted.

The sudden earthquake devastated an entire city, shocking everyone.

Earthquakes were common for the people of Japan. They had long become accustomed to them and possessed a comprehensive knowledge of disaster preparedness.

However, no one could have anticipated that the earthquake that struck Deika City this time would be so terrifying.

Aerial photos captured and spread online showed that the aerial view of the entire Deika City no longer resembled a city.

No matter who looked at it, they would say it was nothing but ruins.

"Hahhh..."

Closing the web page, Renault closed his eyes for a moment and then started another game after a few minutes.

Meanwhile, in a mountain forest, in a secluded location.

Clumps of black mud suddenly appeared, spewing out several injured individuals.

It was the League of Villains.

After returning to their current hiding place, Shigaraki stood silently in one spot.

In his mind, the images he saw at Doctor's hideout kept replaying.

During the battle in Deika City, Shigaraki fared better than the others. He had been steadily advancing toward his target. However, halfway through, a violent earthquake suddenly occurred.

At that moment, Shigaraki almost believed he wouldn't survive.

Fortunately, Doctor managed to extend a helping hand and rescue the people of the League of Villains who were in Deika City.

However, upon arriving at Doctor's hideout, they discovered that Toga was not among those who returned. According to Doctor's information, Toga had been captured.

And the people who captured her were seen the very next second.

Renault and Yuriko appeared in Deika City, starting from the area's center, causing a large-scale earthquake that destroyed the entire region and almost buried them alive.

Afterward, Doctor sent them back to their own base.

Kneeling beside Shigaraki, Twice pounded the ground with a fist, his face filled with disbelief.

"How did those two end up together? And they actually..."

Shigaraki said calmly, "The battle of Kamino, that Renault definitely took advantage of the situation and took Suzushina Yuriko away. Moreover, the twin abilities are the same. No one knows what kind of reaction occurs when they stand together. But now, it's clear that the enhancement of this ability is truly terrifying."

The destruction of an entire city, even the League of Villains almost met their end there.

No, it should be said that if it weren't for Doctor's intervention, they would have undoubtedly met their end.

No one wanted to endure a large-scale natural disaster triggered by human manipulation, and no one had the courage or ability to confront it head-on.

"Giran couldn't be saved, and Toga was captured by the other side."

Everyone fell silent.

The League of Villains has already lost too many members. Kurogiri, who originally served as the team's caretaker, was also captured while seeking a solution outside.

Although he found a way to make them stronger, he ended up sacrificing himself in the process.

Shigaraki shook his head and looked towards the distant forest. "Now that things have come to this, let's not dwell on it. We should focus on our comrade who is about to wake up."

Just as he finished speaking, a loud roar echoed from the forest.

"Shigaraki Tomura!!!"

"It seems our big guy has awakened."

While they hadn't personally dealt with the Meta Liberation Army and had unexpectedly discovered Renault's terrifying strength, Shigaraki was no longer his past self.

Now, what he wanted more than anything was to become stronger, stronger than anyone else.

"Let's go and continue what we haven't finished."

===

At night, Renault found a place to eat something but still chose not to return to school or go home.

It was the first time in his life that he stepped into a bar.

Without wearing a school uniform or presenting any identification, no one could tell that Renault was underage. Therefore, nobody stopped him from entering the bar.

Sitting at the counter, Renault directly said to the bartender, "Give me a bottle of beer."

The bartender glanced at Renault, vaguely suspecting that he might be underage, but they had connections of their own, and with the bouncer letting him in, the bartender didn't bother too much. The bartender simply opened a bottle of beer and placed it in front of Renault.

Taking a sip of the beer, Renault listened to the music in the bar and completely relaxed.

After spending the afternoon thinking, he no longer had any other burdens.

Whatever he had done, whether it led to heaven or hell, he would accept it without hesitation.

As time passed, the number of beer bottles in front of Renault slowly increased.

Renault's handsome appearance caught the attention of some women in the bar, and some even recognized him.

After all, Renault had appeared in the news several times during his work study, and many people had seen his face.

Furthermore, his hero costume didn't hide his appearance.

For a while, many women became interested in Renault and were ready to approach him.

However, before they could make a move, a tall figure in a qipao approached Renault and sat down directly.

"Young man, it's not very proper for you to be here drinking instead of going home at this late hour, isn't it?" said Ryukyu.

Renault turned his head and looked at Ryukyu, calmly taking a sip of his beer. "It's fine, it's not a big deal. I won't get drunk anyway."

Ryukyu observed Renault's behavior and sensed that he had something on his mind, so she decided to stay a bit longer.

This completely eliminated the thoughts of those women who wanted to approach him.
