My Hero Playthrough Omake: 'Best' Route, Part II

"Izuku, what's that?" Tsu whispered. I blushed through Gamer's Mind, and threw my hands up in front of the screen.

"Nothing, " I insisted quickly, "A stupid, silly Mandatory Quest. One I don't intend to accept or acknowledge. I'm hoping it will just go away if I ignore it."

I looked at her desperately, "Plea... please don't look at it. It is embarrassing."

She frowned, but nodded.


Of course, I wasn't that lucky. We went back to my place, to study. But Tsuyu proved that curiosity wasn't limited to cats. While I was putting my stuff away, she snuck around me. Before I noticed or could stop her, she looked at the screen. Then let out a growling ribbit.

"Izuku, what the hell is this!"

"I didn't ask for this, I don't want it," I complained defensively, "I mean sure, I've dreamed about it. Most men do, we are supposedly hardwired to pass on our genes to as many kids as we can. But no sane person ever thinks he's going to really have a harem..."

"Not that," she barked, "This. '1 year.' 'Die alone and a virgin.' What does this mean?"

"Like I said before, stupid," I sighed, "I could theoretically get 14 women to fall in love with me and agree to share me, but if I am one short, they will all dump me, and I will spend the rest of my life alone."

"Are you sure about that?" she prompted dubiously, "I mean, when have the other rewards or penalties been drawn out like that, kero?"

I had not been thinking about it, deliberately avoiding thinking about the quest and its ramifications.

"You think this means I will die one year from today," I considered, "if I don't do this?"

She nodded.

"I suppose, if it was a battle harem situation..." I mused, "Like some Villain attack or disaster is coming, and if I don't have a powerful enough team to stop it, I'll die."

[Quests are not always as simple and straightforward as they sound. +1 Wit, +1 Intuition, +1 Charisma (you are going to need it)]

"There may be another option," Tsu said, "What if we could invalidate the penalty? Make it so it isn't even possible?"

"Tsu?"

She leaned in and kissed me fiercely.

"Tsu?!"

"If you weren't a virgin, you couldn't die a virgin," she said through lidded eyes. I had seen that look before. That day in the forest.

"But I thought..."

"Izuku, I've been attracted to you since before that day in the forest. That just cemented it. Even if I weren't in love with you, I would still want to have sex with you. But I am in love with you. I understand taking it slow. I don't want to give up my chance to be a Hero either. At least my feelings aren't that strong, yet. But if this will save you, I want to do it."

Tsuyu showed off her speed and dexterity. In the time it took me to blink, her right hand undid the top three buttons on her shirt, and her left hand undid the top three on mine. I could see the top of her bra, the upper swell of her breasts.

"You said your mom had a meeting today, and would be late," she reminded me. Looking at her, I could stop myself. I put an arm around her waist, and pulled her in tight. I kissed her passionately. And the hand in the small of her back started to slide lower.

"Izuku?" mom's voice called out from the front door, "Are you home?"

Tsu buttoned her shirt up just as fast, and then whispered, "get changed."

She slid out of the room.

"Hello, Inko-oba-san," she said in her natural, flat tone, "We were actually going to go over to my place to do our homework, before my siblings get home. But Izuku wanted to get changed first, so we stopped here."

"Oh, UA must be very strict, giving out homework on the first day," Mom commented empathetically.

I finished getting into a t-shirt and jeans. Then I popped a piece of mint gum in my mouth. I shoveled everything back into my bag, and hurried out to the living room.

"Okay, I'm ready to go, Tsu," I told her.

"You two, don't study too hard," Mom told us with a wistful smile.


We dropped our bags on the table, and quickly moved to her room. Kissing. I was trying, awkwardly, to unbutton her shirt. That seemed to both amused and please her. I got it undone, exposing her stomach, and chest, and bra. I was entranced, and lowered her down onto her bed.

"I feel kind of bad, lying to my mom," I told her jokingly.

"I'm pretty sure she knows," Tsu chuckled, "she slipped me this."

She slipped a square foil packet out of her skirt pocket. One with a distinctive raised circle.

I kissed her again, my hands sliding down her sides.

BANG, BANG

There was a distinct pounding on the door. Tsu grabbed a t-shirt hanging over her chair. She shed her blouse and pulled the shirt on.

"Asui-chan," I heard an unfamiliar voice, "I detected a spike in your biorhythm, and a second one in here. I thought I should check if everything was okay."

"Yes, everything is fine, Tendo-san," Tsuyu said flatly. And not her normal flat, but more of an annoyed, sarcastic flat.

"Well, if you need anything, I will be right next door."

I heard the door close, and stepped out of Tsu's room.

"Our neighbor," she said, "You met her once. She has a life sensing Quirk."

"Meaning she can tell...

"Yeah," Tsu sighed.

"Well, maybe this is a sign..."

"No," Tsu said as fiercely as I had ever heard her, "Come on."


"Sorry, patrons," the voice of the manager of the love hotel announced over the PA system, "A fight between Endeavor and a pair of Villains has lit the property on fire. The fire department is on their way, but we ask everyone please compose yourselves and exit the building as quickly as possible. Of course, we will issue a full refund..."

Tsu scowled.


We got off the bus at Endoru. Only to discover school buses parked in the lot. And elementary students swarming the park for a special after school lesson.

We got right back on the bus.


[Special Event, Goblin Swarm!
For the next 24 hours, any dungeon entered will be invaded by an army of goblins. Weak but numerous. Endless even.]

After returning to the Asui family apartment, I took Mom out the party and we dove into the Pencil of Solitude. There wasn't a bed, but the couch we had brought in was large and plush. But we were immediately greeted by an alert and howls in the distance.

"Exit Dungeon!" I shouted, hoping leaving would prevent them from destroying our furniture.

"The universe really isn't going to let us do this," Tsu croaked sadly.

"Sorry, Tsu," I said, "I don't know what we can do. Just ignore the message?"

She grabbed my hand, and forced me to hit the accept button.

"I don't care if you have a harem," she said, tearing up, "Maybe it is because I am part frog, but as long as I can have some of you, and know you love me, I don't care if you also love other girls. As long as you love them and they aren't terrible evil bitches. No one night stands. I just don't want this bomb hanging over your head. Our heads."

"Tsu," I hugged her. And gave her a more gentle, compassionate kiss.

"I guess this means you got your first harem member," she laughed even as she cried.

[Secret Quest 'First Girl' completed

Additional Charisma related skills and talents can now be purchased.]

"Thanks, The Gamer," I groused.


Author's Note: Just a quick drabble/omake to say thanks for 1000 and change faves, and for the 4th of July holiday.

Author's Note 2: Wow, that was derisive. But for those who asked, in fear, in hope, in curiosity, and those who cannot express their dislike in a civil and even manner and prefer to add additional negativity to this world: NO. This is not canon. It is an omake. An aside. A joke. A parody. That's not to say there are no hints about canon in here. Like maybe "mandatory quests cannot be easily circumvented", or "just because a dungeon level is cleared doesn't mean it will stay empty forever", or "there are secret quests that Izuku is not informed of in advance"... I leave it to reader to speculate what might be true in that last sentence. But Izuku is not in class 1-B with 19 girls and does not have a mandatory quest to make a harem. And never will be. I wanted to post this because the first part seemed to amuse people, and because there was some interesting speculation.
