Many thanks to those who read and reviewed this fic. I really appreciated it and this gave me inspiration to work on the next chapter and here story continues as Midoriya is now on his way to find the cult's lair in order to rescue the kidnapped children after his encounter with the second DEVA who tried to kill him in the previous chapters…
And now things take a different turn as Midoriya is currently about to experience something he never thought would happen, as his emotional core is about to be stretched to the limit, having witnessed the brutality of the cult he is facing, and how long would he hold back before he is forced to go over the edge…
Well then, read on and enjoy!
At an outdoor cart-like canteen somewhere within the city, the scene shows that the Indian ambassador is having a dinner and joining him is his assistant, as it turns out that he and the assistant seemingly in cahoots as they were instructed by the Japanese embassy in India to stall as much as they can about the incident at India, and the two men are drinking sake as they are pondering on what to do next, as they were instructed by the Japanese ambassador to keep on lying about the state of affairs at India.
The assistant is worried as he felt that UA Academy do not believe that everything is well at India after learning that Midoriya is there, and the Indian ambassador is also feeling the pressure, and both men are wondering what the Japanese embassy in India is thinking at the moment, wondering why come up with the lie that Midoriya is okay when reports aired on Japanese news about the snake attacks at India.
"Sir…"
"What?"
"I don't feel so good."
"I know. But we'll have to…"
"What were they thinking…?"
"Beats me."
"This is problematic…"
"You don't say…"
The two men sighed as they wished that Midoriya would never go to India in the first place as his presence there caused an uproar, and now the ambassador and his assistant are now facing the pressure, and by then his phone rang and his superior called, and instructed the Indian ambassador to keep up the charade and keep UA Academy and the Japanese authority under wraps and give them false assurance that all is well.
The Indian ambassador's superior stated that no one must know that Midoriya is in India and that the ambassador must keep up appearances to MAINTAIN THE PEACE, but the ambassador said that it is now difficult to maintain the facade but his superior kept on saying thatthey must maintain the illusion that this is for the GREATER GOOD.
"You know the reason why."
"But sir…"
"Do not fear."
"…"
"Our goddess will guide us."
"Still…"
"Do as told. Do not let our goddess down. Good night."
"Wait…!"
After that, the call is cut off, and the caterer is baffled upon hearing the caller said the catchphrases like "Death to the infidels!"; "Those who disrespect the goddess Kali must die!"; "Long live the cult!"; "We will rule the world!", which the ambassador and his assistant were shocked that someone has overheard the conversation. The Indian ambassador grabbed the knife and stabbed the caterer on his skull, penetrated the brain and killed him on the spot, which surprised the assistant and asked him what will they do now, as the ambassador just killed an innocent victim.
The ambassador said they need to get out of here at once as no one must know that they are members of the Cult of Thuggees, and this secret must remain a secret, revealing that the two men are secretly in league with the cult, and that they must maintain this secrecy as long as they could.
As the two men are about to flee, they were greeted by an unexpected sight, as Present Mic is standing there, with Kyoka Jiro of Class 1-A with him, her Earphone Jack Quirk displayed and recorded the entire conversation.
And rounding up the cast are Snipe and Eraser Head, and there the three UA teachers are not pleased at what they just discovered, seeing that Nezu did the right thing in sending the teachers here and trailing the ambassador and find out if he is hiding something, and now they have evidence to pin the two men down.
Even Kyoka is not too pleased that these two Indian men are more than willing to sacrifice an innocent boy just to hide something from UA Academy, and told the three teachers that they did the right thing in bringing her along.
"Sensei…looks like you did the right thing in bringing me along."
"Yeah."
"Of course!"
"Looks like this is more than just a cover up."
"Shall we apprehend these two?"
"Yeah. Snipe, Present Mic?"
"Loud and clear!"
"We're on it."
The Indian ambassador and his assistant stared wide-eyed in horror, seeing that they have been discovered, and attempted to flee, but Aizawa uses his Capture Cloth to hold them down while Snipe aimed his gun at the two men, and there he asked them who did they talked to, and who is this cult that they mentioned.
Although hysterical, the two men were defiant and insisted that they do not know what they are talking about, yet Kyoka repeated the recording where the two men's voices showed proof that they are guilty, yet the two men feigned innocence.
"I don't know"
"Beats me!"
"You got the wrong guys!"
"We're innocent!"
"We want a lawyer!"
"We'll sue you!"
"We have our rights!"
"You cannot charge us!"
Although irritated, Aizawa maintained his cool and tells his fellow UA teachers and Kyoka that they will bring the two men to the police and have them interrogated, which the others agreed, and he asked Kyoka if she is willing to come along, and promised to give her a make-up class as she might have to skip a day or so, which she said it is not a problem.
"Thanks, Jiro."
"Sure, sensei."
"You're Quirk will be a big help."
"Yeah."
"Come on. we got to get some clues from these two and figure out what these guys have to do with covering up the fact that Midoriya is in anger."
"Right."
"Let's go."
"Yes, sensei."
And so the three UA teachers and Kyoka drags the two men and are heading for the police station, and soon paramedics arrived and took care of the dead caterer, whilst the UA teachers are hoping that the cops there would instill pressure to make the two men confess everything they know, so that they could get some leads on why they two men are trying hard to hide the fact that Midoriya is somewhere in India and why cover up his possible situation.

Ch. 15: Zugaikotsu no kōgeki
The time now is 20:00, and the airplane that Gran Torino is riding has left the Japanese airspace, which he is glancing at the window, as he is just moments away from leaving Japanese airspace, and as he is about to relax, he checked his smartphone and got a Messenger text from a RELIABLE SOURCE, saying that the three UA teachers and Kyoka Jiro have apprehended the Indian ambassador and his assistant, who were aught conniving with someone and said something about the Cult of Thugees.
The message also said that Kyoka recorded the two men's conversation and the possible connection to the situation at India. As Torino continue to read the message he saw an audio file attached and secretly played it, which made him feel concerned for Midoriya, as he sensed that the 9th holder of the One For All Quirk may be embroiled in a situation that may be connected to the snake attacks that was mentioned to him by Nezu.
He then hid his smartphone when a stewardess passed by and offered him complementary snacks and drinks, which he requested for peanuts and a Sprite, which the stewardess complied, and a minute later she delivered it to him and Torino thanked her for the service, which she says it is nothing.
As Torino is about to resume in reading his messenger app, he is a bit startled when the stewardess shrieked when an Indian passenger molested her in front of the passengers, which the suspect did not mind it and attempted to raise her skirt, triggering a word war between the two.
"Sir!"
"What?"
"Stop that!"
"No. it is a man's duty to explore a woman."
"You pervert!"
"You women are created to pleasure us men!"
"Maniac!"
"Ow! You wench!"
As the stewardess slapped the pervert, the pervert retaliated with a slap of his own, knocking her down, and this made the other passengers feel terrified as the pervert is quite muscular and attempted to rape her in front of the others, confident that no one would dare interrupt him.
However, Torino sighed at seeing that the passengers are too scared to try helping the stewardess and decided to go deal with the pervert himself, and approached the fool, asking him to stop the foolishness and return to his seat, saying that the disturbance he is causing would cause problems inside the airplane, reasoning that this would land him in trouble.
However the perverted Indian national showed no fear and started to insult Torino, unaware of the fact that Torino is a pro hero because the elderly man is dressed like a Safari Hunter.
"Stay out of this you Asian dwarf!"
"Excuse me?"
"This doesn't concern you!"
"It is for me…"
"Mind your own business, you impotent old man!"
"That's a low blow comment coming from you."
"Get lost and do not interfere!"
"…"
As the perverted Indian national is about to pull the stewardess' panties off, Torino provoked the troublemaker by saying that the stewardess prefer REAL MEN and not men who are MICRO-SIZED, stating that the man's penis is as soft as a pasta macaroni on a soup.
The other passengers stared wide-eyed at hearing this and wondered if Torino is really that senile, fearing that the perverted Indian national will surely beat the elderly man up without mercy.
"That idiot!"
"What is he thinking?"
"He'll get hurt!"
"Someone do something!"
"Not me!"
"I'm not a pro hero!"
"You do it!"
"Why me?"
However, Torino uses his cane and jabbed it hard on the man's balls, causing the troublemaker to kneel down in pain, then Torino uses the cane to do an uppercut, sending the man upwards and hit his head on the ceiling before hitting the floor. The man is knocked out and will be out for the duration of the trip to India.
The other passengers gasped at seeing Torino effortlessly took out the troublemaker and wondered who is he, unaware of the fact that Torino is really a pro hero.
"No way…"
"Did he…?"
"How…?"
"He took the guy out with just a stick…"
"That's…"
"Just what the heck is he…?"
"Is he really a senior citizen…?"
"…"
As the rest of the crew helps the injured stewardess, Torino told the crew to tie up the troublemaker so he won't harass anyone, which the crew obliges and thanked him for the help, and assured to him that the troublemaker won't be causing any more disturbance throughout the trip.
"Thank you."
"We appreciate it."
"We owe you one."
"Sure, sure. Just tie him up so he won't try anything foolish again…"
"We will."
"We'll get to it."
"Again we thank you."
"No problem. A citizen's duty."

The scene shifts back at an unspecified area within India, where Midoriya managed to sneaked his way around the new entrance to the cult's lair, as he began to notice something about the surrounding area he is in, as he saw that some of the mountain walls sports several SKULL FACES attached, and this made the boy feel wary, as had a feeling that the cult he is facing may not be the usual types and waited for a proper time to make his next move, as he saw that several cult members are armed.
The next scene shows that another group of cult members arrived, and brought more kidnapped children with them, and you can see that the children are severely malnourished as they came from several impoverished areas within India, and the children were visibly weak to walk on their own, and the cult members showed their ruthlessness by kicking the downed child repeatedly until the child is killed.
Then one of the cult members doused the dead body in gasoline before setting it on fire and warned the children of a similar fate if they dare oppose them, making the children tremble in fear.
There the cult members made their warning clear as they grabbed another child, douse her in gasoline before setting her on fire, and the cult members began chanting the indoctrination oath unabashedly.
"Death to the infidels!"
"Those who disrespect the goddess Kali must die!"
"Long live the cult!"
"We will rule the world!"
"Death to the infidels!"
"Those who disrespect the goddess Kali must die!"
"Long live the cult!"
"We will rule the world!"
Angered by what the cult members did, Midoriya went into action and uses the Full Cowling to propel himself towards the cult members and uses the Shoot Style kick attacks to disable the villains and knock them out, and went to the children to assure them that he will save them.
The frightened children begged Midoriya to get them out of here as they want to go home to their families and live quietly.
"Please!"
"Help us!"
"I don't want to die!"
"We want to go home!"
"Please!"
"Help us!"
"I don't want to die!"
"We want to go home!"
"Waahh!"
Suddenly more cult members arrived and they threw some liquid elements towards him, which Midoriya unintentionally evaded, which he discovered that the liquids were gasoline, and there the shocked Midoriya told the children to run as fast as they could, fearing that the cult members will set the children on fire.
As the children ran off, Midoriya prepared himself to stall the cult members but then he saw the children pass by the wall that has a huge skull head, which the mouth opened and breaths out fire, which turn out to be a booby trap and the children screamed as they are set on fire.
"AAAIIIEEE!"
"GGGYYYAAAHH!"
"AAHHHH!"
"AAARRRGHHH!"
"AAAIIIEEE!"
"GGGYYYAAAHH!"
"AAHHHH!"
"AAARRRGHHH!"
In less than 90 seconds the children were charred to death, and Midoriya was shaken at what happened, and there the cult members unrepentantly celebrated as they chanted the indoctrinated oath of the cult.
"Death to the infidels!"
"Those who disrespect the goddess Kali must die!"
"Long live the cult!"
"We will rule the world!"
"Death to the infidels!"
"Those who disrespect the goddess Kali must die!"
"Long live the cult!"
"We will rule the world!"
Anger started to build up as he couldn't believe how cruel the cult is and yet the cult members are like puppets as they repeated the same indoctrination he chanted a while ago, which further infuriated Midoriya.
"Death to the infidels!"
"Those who disrespect the goddess Kali must die!"
"Long live the cult!"
"We will rule the world!"
"Death to the infidels!"
"Those who disrespect the goddess Kali must die!"
"Long live the cult!"
"We will rule the world!"
Midoriya rushed towards the cult members and unleashed the Delaware Smash and beats up the cult members and he is momentarily blinded by rage as he witnessed how the cult slaughter the children without mercy or remorse.
However, the cult members are like expendable ones, as in the end they chanted the same indoctrination over and over before being put out of commission.
"Death to the infidels!"
"Those who disrespect the goddess Kali must die!"
"Long live the cult!"
"We will rule the world!"
"Death to the infidels!"
"Those who disrespect the goddess Kali must die!"
"Long live the cult!"
"We will rule the world!"
Once the cult members are taken out, Midoriya slowly calms down and stared at the charred remains of the dead children, and he apologized for not being able to save them from the cult.
"I'm sorry…I couldn't…really…I…I…"
Suddenly the skulls that were seen on the walls began to open its mouth, where it fired spears, which caused Midoriya to take evasive action as he realized that the skills are more than just decorations…they are booby-traps.
"Damn! Didn't think those things are armed…!"
To Be Continued...
Hope you liked this chapter, as Some of the UA teachers hog the first part of this story, as they made a discovery on why the Indian ambassador is unwilling to cooperate, and now they slightly got a lead about this cult that is operating in India…
Torino takes the spotlight on the second half of this chapter, managing to keep his pro hero identity a secret even though he covertly took down an Indian pervert…
Lastly, Midoriya is now facing a new problem, as aside from failing to save some kidnapped kids, he entered a portion of the lair where skull-like faces are attached to the walls, and are firing SPEARS, and thus Midoriya is about to get into a new set of problems…
Preview:
The next chapter continues the story, where Midoriya re-commences the search for the hidden base, and encounter something he did not expect…hence he is about to have another difficult moment…as more skull-like faces attached to the wall are attacking…
See you in 6-8 weeks (probably around late November or mid-December)…
Reviews are welcomed, but needed…
