Chapter 133: What's up with Drake?
Soon, the Peanut Gallery went back to the food court while Kouna went to Drake and ask him if there's something wrong, causing Drake himself to say "nothing", which also caused Kouna to glare at him. Drake then told Kouna that there is no way she became champion of the sports festival on Harmony Island because like Hisashi say, she's just a simple girl, which caused Kouna to become furious and started arguing with Drake before attacking him. However, Celia quickly freezes her before scolding Drake for being insensitive, especially toward Kouna, causing Hisashi and Gretel to walk over to find out what's happening, which also caused Celia to start whispering to them. While this is happening, Drake starts to remember being in the same class with the Midoriya twins during their childhood
Soon, after Kouna got released from the block of ice, she found herself in front of Drake, who wants to tell Kouna about the real reason why he was glaring at her. While Drake was calming Hisashi down, Hisashi himself revealed that he was insecure about being seen as weak before saying that when he heard that they are going to do one-on-one matches next, his life flashed right through his eyes, that's when he took a good look at Drake and recognized him from kindergarten. Kouna then give him a look before telling Drake that he was not part of their class during kindergarten, causing Drake himself to ask her if her classroom number from kindergarten is A113, which also caused Kouna to become speechless as Drake explain that he immediately remembers her during the first day of braveworks, but he didn't know that she became the world's strongest teenager. Drake then leaned towards Kouna before sternly asking her how she got extremely strong anyway, which caused Kouna to give him her most serious glare before growling at him.
Drake then chuckles softly before calming Kouna down as he says that he's been waiting for her and Hisashi to recognize him during their first day, but they didn't, causing Kouna to admit that it probably because it's been twelve years since they been to kindergarten, which also caused Drake to glare at her again before warning Kouna that if they get a chance to face each other one-on-one, he wants to see how strong she really is. Kouna then thin for a moment before agreeing to show Drake how much stronger she have gotten since the sports festival with Hisashi. Soon, Drake takes Kouna back to the others, where she told Hisashi that Drake was just telling her that he remembers being in the same kindergarten classroom with them, causing Hisashi himself to agree before saying that it's crazy that he didn't tell them during their first day at Braveworks Academy. He then told Kouna that he remembered Drake being just like him despite his anger issues, causing her to become surprised before imagining Drake being just like Hisashi, which also caused her to realize something since Drake is one of the three people keeping an eye out on her on a daily basis.
