Hello! It's nearly been a month, and I'm honestly surprised how I persevered during my finals. Anyway, like I said in the last chapter, there would be 1-2 more chapters left before this story goes on hiatus... this is the last one. I took out some stuff so now this is the last chapter for now.
On to the chapter!
It was mid-November. Byakuren and Mizuha were greeted by shouts and confetti on the weekend. They were both born on the same day. They didn't know who found out, but the class worked together for four days to try and plan a surprise for the two. The past four days got Mizuha feeling a little confused since her classmates kept fidgeting and shushing whenever she was around while Byakuren got a little sullen from the secretive atmosphere. Needless to say, they were surprised when Kaminari and Kirishima suddenly popped confetti crackers in their faces when they came back after eating dinner with their families.
Before they left the school grounds, the two friends were coming back from a training session with Eijin. Actually, it was more of a training session between uncle and niece while the friend sat back and watched. He had nothing better to do and he figured watching his friend's current skill level in action.
Eijin explained to Mizuha that she already knew how to phase and point warp. From what he previously saw with her brother, he realized that he had more difficulty starting with phasing. He explained that he purposely made her learn how to point warp before phasing to make her job easier. Mizuha was able to realize that she actually did phase once during the raid. It was during her fight with Light when she basically used his attack against him when she pinned him against the wall (which her uncle reprimanded her for because it was dangerous). Now, it was up to her to able to phase without relying on point warping all the time. After minutes of sparring, Byakuren and Mizuha got ready to leave for dinner, and when they came back, they were met with the surprise.
Byakuren's mouth hung open while Mizuha stared at her classmates with her eyes wide open. For her, it was the first time in a long time that she had friends celebrate her birthday.
She was stupefied from the emotions that came crashing down on her.
To everyone's surprise, Mizuha kept staring at them while blinking a few times, completely unaware of the sensation of something rolling down her right cheek. It was only when Kirishima stopped smiling in front of her to stop and give her a puzzled look that she felt her teardrop. He nearly freaked out. Her arm hastily moved up to her face to wipe away her incoming tears. She was happy. She smiled to her classmates and joined them with Byakuren when Satou and Iida came out with a cake that was half vanilla and half chocolate.
Byakuren and and Mizuha blew out the candles together before everyone started clapping and demanding for a piece of cake.
The next week, Eri ended up in U.A.'s care. The students who were involved in the raid were brought to the room in the school where they found the little girl sitting and waiting for them on a couch. Aside from Eri and Hado, everyone went outside to get the full explanation from Aizawa.
"It looks like Eri was abandoned by her parents. And the head of the Shie Hassaikai, who's related to her by blood, has been in a coma for a long time, so she currently has nowhere to go."
Mizuha put her hand under her chin in a thoughtful manner. "For a long time…?" she mumbled. She could only wonder what would happen if her grandfather woke up. If the grandfather was the one who took her in after being abandoned but Chisaki was the one running the whole drug operation. Then maybe her grandfather didn't really do anything bad to Eri... would he retain custody over her after he woke up?
"And, you might've already heard from Aizawa-sensei," Togata pointed at his head. "but the horn that Eri's Quirk is released from is starting to get bigger again slowly."
"So, is she staying with Aizawa-sensei because he can stop her Quirk?" Mizuha guessed.
"She'll be staying at the faculty's dorm to be specific." Aizawa answered with a nod. "It'll be better than sending her to an orphanage. We'll see how she is and help her find a way to live with that great power. There are things we need to check, too… Anyway, we'll take things step by step."
Tsuyu pressed a finger on her chin. "That's sounds like a lot of work for you, Aizawa-sensei."
Togata immediately shot his hand up. "That's where I come in! I'm on a temporary absence from school, and I'm friend with Eri! I'm sure you're all busy, but stop by and visit sometime."
The first years nodded. "Of course!"
Amajiki put a hand on his friend's shoulder. "If Eri's body and soul become stable, then the resurrection of the invincible man will not be far off."
Mizuha smiled a little at that possibility. From her peripheral vision, she saw something speeding towards her group. At first, she thought of ignoring it until she realized how small it was. Curiously, she looked at her left and saw one of U.A.'s little robots coming towards her with a wrapped package.
"What's that?" Midoriya asked.
"Oh, that," Aizawa said before the robot pulled its arm back and pitched the package at Mizuha's face who yelped and stumbled a little from the force. Uraraka and Tsuyu gasped.
"What the heck?!" Mizuha held her face in disbelief and looked at the older people of the group.
"The school's been trying out a way to delivery mail to the students." Aizawa said flatly as he watched the little robot roll away.
Kirishima winced. "And that's how they're delivering stuff? I hope my mom never sends me anything… You okay, Mizuha?"
"Yeah, I'm fine. Just annoyed." she replied while lowering her hand to pick up the package.
"It looked like you got hit by something soft though." Amajiki remarked.
Togata nodded. "Yeah, it just flopped off your face."
Aizawa looked at the two third years. "Sorry to be asking this of you already, but can you take care of her for a while?"
"Roger! We'll play Othello!"
"Can we join you?" Midoriya asked excitedly.
"Class A, go back to the dorm." Aizawa replied without missing a beat. "You have guests arriving soon."
"Guests?"
…
…
…
One the way back, Mizuha was eager to open the light package. Whatever was inside was wrapped in orange wrapping. When she ripped a whole in the middle, she found a card inside.
Kirishima peeked at the card. "Who's it from?"
Mizuha laughed. "Take a look."
The only things in the card were a smiley face along with a 'HBD MICCHAN' written in there. There was only one person who called her that.
"Ehh?! He got you a gift for your birthday!"
It was a sweater based off of his Hero Costume.
Kyourai breathed in the fresh air with his eyes closed.
He was given permission to leave the hospital for a while, but not without an officer and a Pro-Hero accompanying him. The news about his condition would no doubt appear in news articles the next morning. After all, it was their job to update the people on villains. That's what he was.
It was the evening. It was the perfect time to wander around without having to worry about people seeing his face. The police and the hospital thought it was best to let him go out at during the evening. This routine of walking outside for an hour occurred twice a week, and it currently happened to be the last time of the current week. The police made sure that the people accompanying Kyourai were not biased about their opinions of his crimes. They were people who just needed to do their jobs without making the man feel worse.
"So, Kyourai, where are you walking to this time?" the officer asked just after he set the timer on his phone.
The sand brown haired man stayed silent for a while, letting the wind brush the hair out of his face. His bangs were no longer covering his face. They were cut neatly and he got his hair trimmed thanks to a nurse in the hospital. It was improvement from the haircut he gave himself. His previous haircut was a disaster. He had cut his hair himself with the bread knife. He had gone crazy for a moment due to his messed-up memories. Thankfully, a man related to the girl he was trying to kidnap stopped him before he did anything dangerous.
For the past month, he had several mental breakdowns about his identity. According to the hospital, he was sort of brainwashed. Whoever was manipulating him had rearranged his memories by implementing false ones. Quirks like that were rare. He knew that was true. The fake memories were slowly unraveling from his real ones, creating a mess in his mind. He had trouble figuring out right from wrong. The process of his unraveling memories was slow and agonizing. Thankfully, he was slowly getting more stable.
"… If I'm not wrong, then my family should live around here… unless they moved out of that old house." Kyourai said softly after the wind passed.
The hero and the police officer exchanged uneasy expressions.
"I don't think that's a good idea." the Hero said.
Kyourai smiled sadly. "Can I see the house at least?"
"The house?" the officer repeated with a frown.
Kyourai nodded. "I don't think my family would want to see me, but I want to see the house I grew up in. Just seeing the outside would be enough."
"… How far is it?" the hero asked. The hero was willing to offer Kyourai some peace by visiting a nostalgic place. The purpose of the walks was to make him relax, and visiting his family home didn't seem like a bad idea to clear his mind. Nostalgia wasn't so bad.
"… Three blocks from here." Kyourai answered while pointing towards the north.
The walk to his family home lasted at least thirty minutes. They arrived at the house that had 'KYOURAI' on the name plate. Kyourai had to stand four meters away from the gate, just staring at the big house with a soft smile on his face. The longer he stood there, slowly he could see three small figures appear. Two boys and a girl playing in front of the gate with chalk in their hands. They were drawing on the bricks and the cement floor.
A several yellow circles to represent the sun and colorful lines to make a rainbow.
He could hear the faint laughter of children echoing in the neighborhood.
The older looking child faded away, leaving the two younger children laughing together.
He swallowed.
If only things could go back to innocent days…
Kyourai shut his eyes.
Everyone would be back together. Safe and happy.
"Excuse me?"
The hero and the officer turned around when a woman's voice spoke behind them. They found a middle-aged woman and her daughter carrying grocery bags. The girl looked super excited to see the Pro-Hero.
"My daughter's a fan." the mother laughed as she patted her daughter's back.
"You're the Teleporting Hero! White!" The girl bounced happily
White smiled at the young girl. "Hey, there!"
"Oh, oh! Can I have your autograph?!" The girl asked while holding up the notebook she pulled out of her backpack. "Sure, kiddo. Why not?"
"Yay!"
While the girl quickly tried looking for a good marker in her bag, the mother approached the officer. He smiled kindly at the man. "Is there something wrong, officer?"
"Hm? Oh no, we were patrolling around the area. Haha."
"For a second there, I thought we had a villain around the area." the older women said in a joking manner.
"No, no. There's nothing to worry about."
Kyourai gulped. Slowly, he started turning his body towards the back to try and look at what was going on. He was sweating anxiously as he began showing his face to the woman and her child. The mother blinked and looked at the other person standing a few feet away from them, she gazed at the man watching them. Kyourai watched as the woman's face went from a normal face to a shocked one before suddenly twisting into an angered look.
She started screaming at him.
"GET AWAY! GET AWAY FROM MY HOUSE!"
The daughter looked at her mother in shock after she took back her notebook. "Mom…?"
"GET THIS MONSTER AWAY FROM MY FAMILY!" she screamed before grabbing hold of Kyourai's jacket, dragging him further away from her home. He didn't fight her. He followed lifelessly.
"Ma'am! Please stop it!" the officer and hero shouted before separating the two. Kyourai stumbled as White pulled him away safely from the mother's grip.
She pulled out an apple from her grocery bag and pitched it at the villain. "GET THE HELL AWAY FROM HERE!"
"That's enough!" the officer yelled, grabbing her bag away just in case she threw something else. Kyourai was too busy cradling his head to look at the woman. He saw the red apple roll a few feet away from where it landed.
The girl who did nothing but watch the scene watched the villain pick up the apple and tuck it away in his pocket. Her purple eyes met his matching ones when he stood back up.
"Rion…?"
"Come, Kina!" The mother grabbed her daughter's wrist. She took back the grocery bag from the officer and marched to her house. But then she stopped. She looked back at Kyourai and glared at him. "Don't ever come near here! A villain is not a son of mine! Stay away from us!"
The three of them did nothing but watch as the two entered their home without another word. The door had slammed closed. The officer and the hero looked at the villain. Things were going so well until his mother showed up. He was actually smiling from the happy memories he remembered just by seeing the gate. Things just went south so quickly.
"Well, let's go back." Kyourai said, breaking the silence. He turned away from the house and started walking back the way they came from. "We don't want her to come back out and hit me again…" he laughed to himself.
"How's your head?" White asked worriedly.
"It's alright. A little bump will probably appear… nothing that can't be healed in a few days."
The sand brown haired man took out the apple from his pocket. The bright red apple was probably surrounded with bacteria after the tumble it took. That was fine. A dirty fruit. He saw himself. He chuckled humorlessly.
It's okay. I'm okay.
He took a bite out of the apple while he cried.
That apple was the last thing he would ever receive from her, and he would accept it wholeheartedly. He would accepted her hate. All of it.
Because he didn't deserve anything other than that.
It was a few days after the Pussycats came to visit the dormitory. The Pussycats were there to see them along with Kota. From what they told the class, Ragdoll was no longer operating as on-the-scene member of the group. She was working as a supporting member. They didn't want to risk letting go of All For One out of Tartarus for the purpose of returning Ragdoll's Quirk. It was too risky.
Presently, Mizuha was with her uncle in Gym Gamma after watching the Billboard Chart with some of her classmates in the common room. He had some free time and Mizuha wanted him to be with her while she trained. It wasn't because she needed help, she just wanted to have someone around. He had nothing else to do so he accepted some bonding time with his niece.
She was actually making use of her break from the Internships to train and become stronger.
Light, or Kyourai Rion, was declared innocent from his lack of free will in his villainous actions. The nation was divided about this issue. Many were enraged at the fact the Light was not simply thrown into Tartarus. Hearing about how his imprisonment was halted due to memory complications made them angry… hearing about the recent news didn't make things any better. Meanwhile, some people were being sympathetic about his situation.
He wasn't quite sure how his niece was reacting to the news.
"Mizuha."
"Hm?"
"… Did you hear about Light?"
…
Mizuha stared at her uncle with an unreadable expression. "Yeah."
He was talking about the guy who attacked her and tried to kidnap her. She recently found out that he was not directly involved with his crimes because of something that the hospital labeled as something related to brainwashing. There were no further details about his current condition. Once she read that online, she remembered staring up at the ceiling with conflicted emotions.
The first thing she thought was how terrible Light was feeling. However, that thought faded as soon as she started having doubts. Her mind was becoming a representation of the nation itself.
"As your blood-related guardian on school grounds, I've been given the right to be updated on the villain potentially posed a threat to you. So, I was aware of how he was doing. I even passed by a few times."
"Hmm… oh yeah?" Mizuha began her attempts to phase while still listening to her uncle talk.
"… A few weeks ago, he said he wanted to apologize to you."
Mizuha gave her uncle a weird look. "Huh? Why? It's like… not his fault, right?"
Eijin sighed. "To him, it is. They've told him many times that he couldn't help it, but he's willing to accept a villain's crimes as his own. He sees himself as the culprit of everything, no one else."
The girl was silent.
"To be honest, I don't know what's going to happen to him if he keeps thinking like this. It's pretty depressing. And people aren't really kind sometimes so…"
Slowly, Mizuha lowered her gaze and stared at the floor silently as her uncle kept talking.
He's making himself the villain? Why would he want to do that?
Mizuha frowned.
…
…
He's being cruel to himself.
Kirishima and Mizuha came back inside after walking Sho around the campus. Earlier, on her way to the elevator, she ran into Kirishima who was on his way downstairs. When she told him she was going to walk Sho, Kirishima wanted to do it. He actually wanted to tag along to hang around Sho for a while. A walk turned into a run when Kirishima started bolting off ahead. Sho didn't even have his leash on, so he ran after him, leaving Mizuha to walk alone with herself. She didn't complain though, it was amusing to see the two run around and enjoying a simple joy of life.
The remains of that simple joy went flying out the window when a breaking news suddenly flashed on the tv in common room, catching everyone's attention. It was a live broadcast of a fight in Kyushu. It wasn't just any fight. It was a fight between a Nomu and the current Number One Hero. Seeing another Nomu definitely made Yaoyorozu feel uneasy considering her previous encounter with one.
Defeating that Nomu didn't look easy.
It wasn't until she witnessed Endeavor blow a building into bits and seeing that Nomu he was up against suddenly spit out several balls of Nomu that she decided to go look for her friend. She left her dog behind and went up to the fifth floor of the dormitory building. She knocked hastily several times on Todoroki's door as a way to tell him it was urgent. As she thought, she heard quick shuffling in the room before the door swung open.
He looked a bit annoyed by the interruption. He was in the middle of reading a letter from his lovely mother until someone came knocking. He wasn't expecting to find Hyoumei of all people behind his door, especially since he didn't know her to knock like that.
"Hyoumei? What's the matter?" he asked with a tone laced with concern when he saw the agitated look on her face.
"Come with me downstairs." Mizuha said urgently, taking his wrist and pulling him out into the hallway before shutting the door behind him. She quickly motioned to the elevator and ran to it with him following after her. "Your dad is on the news fighting a Nomu."
Todoroki got startled from that information. "What?"
The way she came knocking at his door, the look on her face… something was telling him that perhaps the situation was not in his father's favor. He was getting tense as he watched the numbers change in the elevator, indicating how close they were to seeing how his father was doing. As soon as the doors opened, Mizuha and Todoroki went over to the television.
They were just in time to witness a close up of his father getting struck by two of the Nomu's limbs. One struck him on the side while the other went straight to his face. The group sitting in front of the television collectively gasped in horror. Mizuha hissed and squinted her eyes, watching as Endeavor lost his fire in the air and simply dropped. The camera lost sight of him in the rubble and the smoke. It took a few seconds, but they were able to locate Endeavor's body and zoom in on it. The Nomu was simply standing next to it while looking around, looking uninterested at the fallen body next to it.
Todoroki's father was lying on the rubble, looking defeated.
Mizuha swallowed. Come on. Please get back up, Endeavor…
The Nomu began moving away from him.
Endeavor got back up to charge at the Nomu only to get knocked away effortlessly.
The people were being shown panicking as they ran, crying for help. It was chaotic. The reporter was telling the nation how they had no Symbol of Peace.
"Todoroki!" Aizawa's sudden voice brought Mizuha back to the common room. She couldn't even hear the words coming out of her classmates' mouths since she was too focused on the scene and her thoughts. "You already saw it?"
"I was the one who brought him here." Mizuha she held up her hand a bit while looking at Aizawa. "I figured it was right since that's his father on tv…"
"That's fine." Aizawa looked at the screen. "I was going to tell him about it. It wouldn't be right to leave him in the dark."
"Don't just say whatever you want! Where are you looking at to come up with that, TV?!"
"Stop that! It's not the time for it."
"Look at that!" the boy shouted while pointing at the flickering flames. "The flames are still bright! You can see that, can't you?! Endeavor's still alive and fighting! Stop letting something that isn't there get you down! Right now, for our sakes, who is his life?! Look!"
The cameras focused back on the bright flames in the distance. That Nomu must have some ridiculous regenerating speed if it could stand being roasted alive like that.
"Endeavor is fighting… even as he suffers… and struggles… He's fighting!"
"Come on…" Mizuha muttered, gently fisting the hem of her t-shirt. Her eyes were glued on the screen, and her heart was pounding against her chest at the suspense. All of a sudden, the light flashed brighter before flying up towards the sky. The camera was pointed at the light that was slowly turning into a small ball of light. His light then shined brighter and brighter, practically becoming the light in the sky itself. Then, it was quiet. Endeavor and the Nomu went crashing back down. Two Heroes rushed to catch the Number One Hero to break his fall. The camera quickly got a hold of the dancing flames on the ground and zoomed in on it. It revealed Endeavor, standing and holding up his right arm.
The Nomu was no longer moving, it was burnt and defeated.
Mizuha let out a heavy breath that she didn't even know she was holding back. Then, she heard clothes rustling next to her. She felt a knee brush against her leg. The girl turned her head and found Todoroki squatting down with his face pressed against the side of his hands, hiding the look of relief on his face.
"Todoroki." Mizuha said softly before also lowering herself down. She got down on her knees and put a hand on his back as a comforting gesture. She peered at his face a little. While keeping his face pressed against his fingers, he shut his eyes and lightly tilted his head in her direction.
"Your dad won!" Kirishima exclaimed as he went over to him with Yaoyorozu, Uraraka, Sero and Midoriya. Mizuha looked away from Todoroki to look at the others crowding around him, but a flash of blue caught her eye. Her eyes immediately glued themselves back to the screen.
"Blue flames?" Mizuha muttered while motioning for Midoriya to move aside a little so she could see. Those flames…
It reminded her of that night.
"Blue fire? How come?" Sero spoke as everyone straightened back up. There was a circular wall of fire around Endeavor and Hawks.
"Yes, The League of Villains is here! It's the League member Dabi! He's surrounded Endeavor and Hawks with a wall of flames!"
Mizuha could never forget Dabi's face. His face was definitely something to remember. And those eyes, those cold piercing turquoise eyes…
Thankfully, the Pro Hero Mirko came jumping in before Dabi could attack the two, forcing him to retreat and disappear in in some strange liquid.
After it was over, Mizuha decided to retreat back to her room with Sho trailing after her. Todoroki took the elevator with her since he wanted to go back to his room too. He took that moment to thank her for quickly bringing him downstairs. It was something he actually needed to see for himself.
Two days later, Endeavor was released from the hospital and he went home to take it easy for a while. Aizawa drove Todoroki to his home so that he could see him. Other than that, nothing really happened at the dorm.
His fight against the Nomu had definitely made the nation realize that All Might's Era was over. It was Endeavor's era now. Perhaps it was also time to realize that it was time for a new symbol. After watching Endeavor's fight, Mizuha saw hope. He gave the people hope with his fight. He might as well be the Symbol of Hope instead.
Mizuha was staying up late, leaning back against her bed while she jammed her fingers on her control. Sho was resting on her lap as she played late into the night. She was wearing the sweater that Taishiro sent for her birthday (which she made sure to thank him for via text). It was comfy. She was seriously lost in her game that she didn't even realize how late it was. Everyone would surely be in a deep sleep by now.
All of a sudden, Mizuha heard a faint noise. It was brief, but it was enough to freak her out and pause her game. She turned her head and averted her eyes to look at some random corner in her room.
What on earth was that?
The dorm didn't exactly have soundproof walls so the residents could actually hear things in the dorm if it were loud enough. Obviously, the noise was fainter if it came from another floor. That was probably the case right now. Still, it freaked out Mizuha a little. There was probably a reasonable explanation though. Just like when everyone freaked out about the noise haunting their dorm a while back.
She shrugged. "Whatever."
She resumed playing her game without giving the noise much thought.
…
…
…
Meanwhile, a certain green haired student was lying flat on his bed while staring up at the ceiling. He put his forearm on his forehead as he recalled the strange dream he had earlier. After using his Quirk in his sleep and nearly destroying his room, he tried his best to go to sleep… to no avail.
Midoriya turned on his side to face the wall. "All For One and his brother…" he muttered. "The One for All users… And why…"
He kept remembering his dream, especially that brief moment where the first user was in a dark room.
The older brother released his younger brother after doing the deed. The younger man moved away from the powerful man and refused to look at him.
"Maybe, now that you have power, you'll soon come to see things my way. It's only a matter of time." The big brother smiled. He put his hands in his pockets and began leaving the room. "Now, you should eat. I can only imagine how hungry you must be." he said nonchalantly before stopping outside the room and looking to his left. "Hiyori, bring in the food."
Midoriya, in his current form that consisted of only his upper head and right hand, could see two shadows outside the room. One of them began moving once the older brother walked away into the hallway, a new person started entering the room.
"If you don't eat… you're going to get even more sick."
A short young girl with blonde-hair and brown eyes came into view. Kind brown eyes. She was carrying a tray of food as she entered the room. The girl approached the younger brother with a sad look on her face. The younger brother looked up at her wordlessly.
If Midoriya could feel his mouth, he would have dropped it open with his eyes widening.
He could still feel the shock when he saw the younger girl's face.
Midoriya rolled back onto his back and stared up at his ceiling, his limbs spread out on his bed.
"Why did she have Hyoumei-san's face?" he whispered in the darkness of his own room.
…
…
…
Mizuha clicked her tongue in annoyance. This was probably the fifth time she lost against the boss. By now, her dog had waddled into his bed since his owner kept having silent rage fits, jolting him every twenty seconds. He even gave her an annoyed glance before going to sleep. It was amazing how Mizuha had so much self-control since she had the tendency to shout in frustration.
While containing a scream of rage, she decided to shut off her game, and nearly tossed her control towards the table until she remembered how it was nearly 3:50 AM. It was time to sleep and get ready for school in a few hours.
"Jumping into the new era with rage…" she muttered to herself.
WELL! THAT'S THE LAST CHAPTER FOR NOW! Yes, I'm really ending it like this with a mini cliffhanger. I apologize if it's a little shorter than you expected but I didn't want to jump into the next arc yet. This chapter had a lot of Kyourai in it. It might or might not be obvious now, but Kyourai Rion is actually a character that I like to call 'broken'. And because he's broken, I like him haha. I'm cruel ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ. Also, that birthday part was supposed to be longer with Mizuha feeling insecure 'cause everyone was being sneaky and stuff but I scratched that idea.
Until season 5 or when the manga advances even further, I won't be updating this story for a while. Again, I'm not abandoning this story. I consider this my first story since I've actually loved writing it... so I don't see myself dropping it anytime soon. In the mean time, I'll be writing a new story for Bleach since I've been rewatching it again with my mom... we got plenty of time for bonding right now (thanks Covid-19).
By the way, I got like a deviantart account (LawlessxSeeker), and I'm drawing stuff there like OCs from my fanfiction stories. You guys can check it out if you like (there isn't much to look at but hey I got so much time to draw now that school is out of my face. Bored as hell as over here). Just putting that out there in case y'all wanna see some Celsius Hero stuff.
And another thing, I put up a poll for the pairing of the story. Yeah, this dummy author is still trying to figure it out. It's just to get an idea of what my readers wanna see. I'll leave it open during the hiatus and maybe after I release a few chapters when the story continues. You can vote for 2 people! It's on my bio page.
Some replies!
Frenchie Is French: Maybe if the manga shows Class A during their second year, I might consider putting her in the next pageant? Who knowsss. She'd probably look like a damn tomato floating in water from the anxiety though. My slow ass decision to pick a pairing is making Mizuha look like an idiot oh nooo.
M: Guaranteed there'll be more when the story continues again!
Padgent: The smiling part with Mizuha and Eri has been in my head since chapter 17! The thing with Mina never experiencing love is actually canon. I didn't know until I got curious about the Character Book Ultra Analysis thing. I laughed too but then I was like... "same ._." xD. I'm glad you'd support a Bleach story! I'm excited to start writing it as soon as I finish jotting down some more details (and come up with a damn title... it's so hard whyy).
So, till next time! Love you guys! :D
