Green Cloud Restaurant – Main Room -

It was a fairly normal day in the mysterious Green Cloud Restaurant of Yavin Street, business was thriving as usual, small time Villains and 'Famous' Vigilantes in incognito kept visiting the place together with Heroes and Hero Students from the various schools, Troublemakers kept being undressed and tossed out by Whitey and few people kept taking Selfie with either Shiro the Taotie or the dishes Izuku served them, everything was fairly normal, so to speak.

"Heeeey!" It was then that Rumi entered the place together with Ryukyu, the Pro Hero she was having an Internship with.

"Oh! Good morning! Back already?" Izuku asked while serving a very nervous Giran, with the informant folding on himself as soon as the Pro Hero and the student neared his table and moving his chair so that his back was to the duo.

"Never left, unfortunately." Ryukyu answered with a sigh.

"What happened? If I can ask."

"The so-called contraband we were supposed to intercept turned out to be fake," The Dragon Hero answered.

"Fake?" Izuku asked.

"...It's very embarrassing…" The Dragon Hero said with a contrite expression.

"Uh?"

"We...We were told that your Sponsor was smuggling drugs here hidden in their cargo and that you and your restaurant were the cover for it…"

"WO! WO! WO! What?" Izuku asked, appalled.

"Yeah, I told them there was no fucking way you would do it, but they had 'proof'! And kept bitching about it until we had no choice but go check." Rumi answered, scoffing and using air quotes when talking about proofs.

"I too knew that! But the Commission still wanted us to check just in case! I swear!" Ryukyu said immediately.

"I believe you. And what happened then?" Izuku asked with a groan while massaging his temples.

"Eh, that's the strange thing...Every single Informant of Musutafu brought us counter-proofs about that being fake, a way to discredit you. Even the ship's content was registered with forged documents, just to damage you...Utter insanity." The Pro Hero answered, sighing.

Behind her Giran gained a very pleased smile while still eating.

"Figures...Who did it?" Izuku asked, taking a deep breath and looking at the sky as if asking for some extra patience to the Gods.

"We don't know, those Informants purposely kept the name hidden, their letter openly, and boldly, stated that they will leave to YOU the honor of teaching them manners through a cooking competition." Ryukyu answered with a groan.

"Yeah, they got very ballsy about it." Rumi added with a scrunched nose.

Behind them Giran made sure Izuku saw him slip a tiny piece of paper under the glass he was drinking from, before flashing him a thumbs-up.

"I see, unfortunately I had no clue of all this. Do you want me to alert you should I find that name taped to my Restaurant door?" Izuku answered, pinching his nose.

"Yes, please. While taking Justice in your hands in such a harmless way is not illegal, whoever did this, did it multiple times as this was not the first 'illegal shipment' in your name we were called to investigate, and that is a crime. Not just defamation, but literally making Heroes and Police waste time and effort chasing ghosts." Ryukyu said.

"That because the drugs and weapons that had been actually added to the cargo have been destroyed by The System every time." The Entity added through its telepathic link to Izuku.

"I see...Sure, no problem, I can call you if they tell me anything." The Chef answered, shrugging.

"Good. A question, though…"

"Yes?"

"Are you purposely serving Informants, Villains and/or Vigilantes?" the Pro Hero asked, and MANY behind her tensed-up, either ready to run or assault her.

"I serve customers, I don't ask for IDs unless they pay with credit card, and I don't usually ask my Guests what they do for a living to not bother them. I jokingly try guessing it just by looking, but just as a past time of mine...Like Miss Tsubasa at table 4, I believe she has a flower shop since her fingers are sometime yellowed by pollen. She often has small petals stuck on her shirt too. Even though she may just love tending to her flowers back home." Izuku answered.

"Huhuhu! I do have a flower shop, you are correct!" A woman answered from one of the tables close to the door.

"Eh! Nice! What about Mister Hakari at table 6? I believe he probably sells fish since he knows a lot about it and always smells of sea...Not in a bad way, of course." He then said.

"Nope! I am a fisherman, I own a small company that catches fish for Restaurants, but it was close enough!" The guy at the table at the opposite side from the flower shop owner answered with a cheeky smile.

"Close enough indeed. So, no, I don't know if my other Guests are Vigilantes, Villains or whatnot, never saw a reason to ask, and since I am not part of the world of Heroics, unless their faces appear on newspapers, I don't have a way to check either." Izuku said with a shrug.

Sigh! "I know...I know...But it didn't hurt to ask," Ryukyu answered.

"What? You hoped to catch Re-Destro eating here?" Izuku asked, smirking, and knowing that Rikiya, eating at an isolated table in a corner of the room close to the kitchen, had probably choked briefly on his steak at hearing the Chef using him as an example.

Never let it be unsaid that Izuku could not be petty if he wanted.

"Not a Villain THAT important, but a small one...That would have been nice, yes." The Pro admitted, sheepish.

"Check Please!" Several voices asked as one in barely-concealed fear.

"Coming!"

"We are getting in the way, Boss." Rumi said, chuckling.

"Yes! Right! Of course...Uhmmm…"

"Yes, I have a free table for you two. Yes, I made those blackberry croissant you like, Ryu-san. And Yes, I will tell you if some informant contacts me." Izuku said with a gentle smile, while pointing at a free table.

"Thank you," She answered, unaware that at the table behind hers Knuckleduster had slightly hunched over to not be recognized.

"I have a surprise too, if you are interested, Rumi-chan," Izuku said.

"Uh? What is it?"

"Carrot cake, if you want some for breakfast," he said, smirking.

"HELL YEAH!" the girl answered.

"Good to know! I'll bring you a slice" He answered, pleased, and taking the rest of their order.

"MAKE IT BIG!"

"Sure!"

It was a just a couple hours later, during a small moment of peace that he saw his Waitress Ochako enter the Restaurant with a very worried expression, with her being jittery and jumpy immediately catching his attention. The Pro Hero Gunhead was accompanying her and didn't look at ease either.

"H-Hi!" she said with a very weak smile.

"Good morning. Sorry the intrusion, but she insisted she needed to talk to you before we went on a small trip for her Internship." Gunhead said, sighing.

"Ocha! What's wrong?!" He asked, subconsciously finally using the nickname she had been pushing him to use for weeks.

"I-Izuku? Can I ask you a favour?" She said, gnashing her lip in worry.

"Sure! Tell me what's wrong!" he said.

"Se-Sensei...Can we…"

Sigh! "I will wait outside, okay. Boss Icchan, see to have her spill the beans, her being that worried is getting me nervous too, she doesn't want to talk with me and it smells of trouble." The Pro Hero answered, walking outside while shaking his head.

"I'll see what I can do."

"Thanks!"

"...So? What's wrong?" Once gently pulled her inside his kitchen, Izuku grabbed both her shoulders and showed her the must reassuring smile he could muster.

"I…I..."

"I am here, you can trust me." he said with a slow, calm tone.

"You...You have to skip Dimension in a week, yes? With Rumi?" Ochako asked.

"Uh-hu! We will be gone for just about ten hours here, while there we will spend ten days hunting for a couple Ingredients, yes. What about it?" Izuku asked.

"…"

"Occhan?" he asked again, and actually making a titanic effort to use that cutesy nickname while talking with her.

"I...I need your help with something before you go," She answered.

"Sure, what do you need?"

"I...I don't know how to say this," she whispered.

"Uh?"

"I know you are strong and that both Whitey and Blackie are VERY strong…" The girl said.

"Okay?"

"I need you to stop a friend of mine from getting himself killed," She begged.

"WHA-"

"Sssh!" Ochako hissed while covering his mouth with both hands.

"Don't scream!...You remember my classmate, Tenya Iida, yes?"

"The kitchen is sound-proof, don't worry. Of course I know him, he is the younger brother of Tensei, the Pro Hero Ingenium. He is a classmate of yours, we met several times already." Izuku answered.

"Exactly. He is also a dear friend of mine, and he has been acting strange lately. I really care about him, so I kept my eyes open and tried to guess what was happening behind the scenes, until one day I discovered that the reason why his brother has not been around is because that 'Hero Killer' newspapers are talking about attacked him...And now Tenya wants to hunt him down to avenge his brother." Ochako said.

"He wants to hunt down a Serial Killer?!" Izuku screamed.

"Yes, he is obsessed about it, I found entire journals full of newspaper clips and other notes about the man, Tenya was apparently trying to track him down, and I fear he had somehow found-out where he is, he had tomorrow's date and circled in red as if it was very important..." Ochako answered, her face was ashen as she looked close to tears.

"How?!"

"I don't know! But he has suddenly changed Internship to go to Hosu and he had been insisting to go there as soon as possible. Maniacally so. And now he actually disappeared and nobody knows where he went!" she answered.

"He was probably tired of waiting so he left by himself. So Stain is probably in Hosu too and your friend thinks he can track him down and what? Arrest him?" Izuku said.

"I fear he wants him dead, his notes scared me, Izu. He is...He is obsessed." Ochako admitted, shivering.

"Why you did not tell a professor?"

"Because at the time he caught me and pretty much threatened me into silence. I saw his eyes, Izu...He...He was like an animal. When I finally decided to act he was already gone,"

"So you want me to see if between Whitey and Blackie we can stop Tenya-san and knock some sense back into his skull?" The Chef asked.

"Please! I wouldn't have asked you if I didn't know you had the means and power to do so. If anybody can stop Tenya from getting himself killed, that's you, System-san and the others...Please!" Ochako begged.

"Kyuuh." In answer Shiro gently tapped the girl's cheek with a paw, making her let out a tiny, wet chuckle.

"T-Thank you, Shiro-kun." she answered, hiccuping.

"I'll see what I can do, come." Izuku answered, motioning her to follow him outside the Restaurant to talk with Blackie.

"You okay?" Gunhead asked.

"Almost, just a last thing," Ochako answered, already regaining some colour on her face.

"Blackie?" Izuku asked.

"...Rrrmh?" The Dog grunted.

"I need your help with something." Izuku said.

"What is it, kiddo?" he answered while opening a single, bleary eye to look at him.

"I need to go to Hosu…"

"Tomorrow." Ochako said.

"Wha?" Gunhead uttered, confused.

"Tomorrow for a small favour, and I would like you to accompany me."

"What for?" The Dof asked, uninterested.

"Nothing too extreme, just to scare away a psycho. Can you accompany me?" The Chef whispered in the Dog's ear to not be heard.

"Does this Lord Dog look like a Baby-sitter to you, Kiddo? I have way more important things to do that hunt down weaklings." Blackie answered.

"But...But…" Ochako muttered.

"...I'll double the portions of your Spicy Beef Noodles. For a week." Izuku said with narrowed eyes.

"Tch! Who do you think you are talking with? This Lord Dog has a dignity." Blackie answered, scoffing in derision.

"Triple portion."

"DEAL!" The Dog answered immediately while his eyes snapped wide open.

"…" Both teens and Pro Hero could only stare at the Lord Dog as his tail wagged happily at the offer.

Lord Dog Blackie, or how "Dignity" got sold for a giant bowl of noodles...

"Just tell this Lord when it's time to go and we'll depart immediately." Blackie said with a way-too-happy tone.

"BULLSHIT! THIS ESTEEMED TAOTIE WOULD HAVE DONE IT FOR JUST TWICE THE PORTION OF HIS BELOVED Sweet-N-Sour Pork Ribs! YOU ARE JUST BOWING TO A WEAKLING'S GREED, PARTNER!" Shiro mentally shrieked in outrage.

"Should have thought about it sooner, lil' plushie." The Dog answered telepathically.

"GODDAMNIT!" The Taotie roared in near-madness, further brightening Blackie's day.

"You can help too, Shiro-kun. If you want." Izuku offered.

"KYUN!" And the small thing replied with narrowed eyes.

"Huhuhu! Thank you." Ochako, already filled in relief at the news of both Blackie and Whitey being willing to help (And completely unaware of Shiro's real identity and powers), answered to the adorable noise by kissing the top of the Taotie's head.

"...And my kiss? This Lord is helping too." Blackie said.

"Ehh." Ochako answered with a grimace, and only awkwardly patting the Lord Dog's head.

"Ah-ha! This Esteemed Taotie is indeed cuter than you! Damsels can't resist kissing my godly visage once compared it to your ugly mug!" Shiro said in smug triumph.

"Tch! This means nothing...Goddamnit." and just like that, Blackie's day went soured, and curiously, at his muttering of those words Shigaraki felt a shiver of dread travel up his spine even if he had just been declared back to full health by All for One's personal doctor.

"Okay, we'll go to Hosu tomorrow to intercept your friend, but you have to alert your teachers as soon as possible. I will take the blame, but we can't risk it." Izuku said.

"Thank you!" she answered, hugging him as hard as she could.

"System?"

"The System will guess...Host wants to use The System's teleportation array to arrive at Hosu before the Target?" The Entity asked.

"Please? You are SOOOO POWERFUL! This won't be a problem for you!"

"Does the Host think empty words of praise will work?"

"Yes?"

"The System will offer its help in exchange of Host Izuku creating a new recipe using Dwarven Beer as an Ingredient during his incoming sortie." The System answered.

"...If I create 2, can you promise me that you or Blackie will intervene whenever Momo, Nejire, Ochako or Rumi are in mortal peril?" Izuku asked.

"Add a bowl of that beer (Chilled) to my food, beside water, and we have a deal." Blackie answered, adding himself to the telepathic talk.

"Me too! A bowl of that cold beer and I will help too!" Shiro hurriedly added as well.

"Very well, Host Izuku. The System and the Security Staff will add those girls to the Protection List, with the caveat that the girls will receive said protection if their lives are at risk ONLY, every other struggle will be theirs to face. We will intervene only in a Life-or-Death situations." The System declared.

"Fair enough. Thank you." Izuku answered, sighing.

"No problem, kiddo/Partner/Host." The three answered.

"Uh?" Ochako asked, confused.

"Nothing, nothing. I just took care of a small issue of mine, nothing to worry about." He answered with a chuckle.

"That's good to hear," she answered, smiling along with her friend and crush.

"What is happening?" Gunhead asked, even more confused.

"I can tell you everything now, sensei! Especially since I need your help!" Ochako answered, finally feeling some relief at knowing her classmate was probably no longer in danger.

This provided nothing else happened in Hosu at the same time Tenya went through his hunt for Stain!

The next night – Hosu – Bullet Train Station -

Gran Torino was feeling kind of torn at the moment…

One one side he was having the time of his life while fighting a duo of Nomu by himself to give his new pupil Mirio enough time to evacuate the train station while protecting the Civilians.

And on the other, the short old man kept wondering what were the chances of his small training trip to intersect with a full-scale Villain attack! To HOSU of all places!

"Prometheus Spear!" And as a further shock, watching Endeavor himself join the fight by launching a spear of fire he created with his Quirk to intercept the attack of the more muscular Nomu of the two out of f# king nowhere.

"Endeavor?" he asked.

"I was hunting down Stain and found proof of his being here. Why are those things here as well?" The Flaming Hero asked with a tone of contempt after joining the other Pro.

"I would really love to know. I met these two gentlemen a minute ago when they assaulted my train while fighting over a poor Pro Hero they had beaten black-and-blue like two dogs with a bone. Left the barely-alive guy to the medics." Gran Torino answered.

"Tch! Let me deal with these weaklings then. HELL FIRE!" Enji answered, covering both Nomu in a sea of fire only to see the shortest of the two absorb the flames and then release them 'safely' from its body.

"An Absorb and Release Quirk?" Torino said with narrowed eyes.

"Yes, but a weak one, both still took damage." Endeavor answered.

"GUIIIIIH!" The muscular Nomu, a '2.0 Version' of the one Blackie destroyed back in the USJ, Charged forward eager to punch Enji to death.

"COM'ERE!" The Pro Hero answered, unafraid, and meeting the behemoth head-on.

BOOM!

When the Nomu's punch met Endeavor's flaming one mid-air, the two fists clashed for just an instant before the Pro Hero blew the monster back and exploded its arm.

"GRRRRR!" The Nomu growled in defiance while its arm took only a minute to fully regrow.

"Tch! That's a strong regeneration, but let's see if it can regenerate incinerated cells!" Enji bellowed before charging the thing.

"HEAVE-OH!" Behind him, Gran Torino kept out-pacing the other Nomu and its prehensile tongue while pelting it in kicks empowered by his Quirk.

"KRIIIIII!"

"HEEEEELP!"

Then, a third Nomu, a flying one, appeared on the scene holding a poor woman upside-down by a leg trapped in the monster's talons.

"DAMN IT!" Torino hissed in anger.

"Minnesota SMAAAASH!" Before he could even try to intervene, his pupil Mirio came flying out of a wall (luckily still dressed since wearing his costume) at high speed to punch the flying Nomu in the chest, sending both the creature and the woman pummel to the ground.

"Ugh!" Biting down the pain, and swallowing back some blood by the taste of it, Mirio managed to grab the woman in a bridal carry to bring her to safety on top of a building while the Nomu crash-landed on top of a car and flattening it under its weight.

"Sensei!" the young man yelled.

"Take the woman to safety! We'll keep these things occupied!" Torino answered.

"It's a 3v2! I can help!" Mirio answered.

"You can't risk it! Not until your training is over!" the old man answered.

"I don't need a child to defeat these!" Enji added, punching the Nomu he was fighting with a flaming fist that opened a hole in the things chest and sent it flying.

"GRAAAA!"

"I knew it, if I incinerate you, you don't heal! Next target is the head!" Endeavor declare in triumph.

"KRYYYYY!" At the same time, unfortunately, the flying Nomu had recovered from the punch and was once again flying around the area.

"Take her to safety, Lemillion!" Torino ordered a last time.

"NO! I can't turn my back to who needs my help! I can do both! Protect her and help you!" Mirio answered, voice full of despair.

"You still can't control your new power! It's too dangerous!" The old man answered, furious.

"I can do this!" The young man answered.

"I am not that weak! I can do this! Even if it breaks me!" Mirio thought while clenching his teeth to fight-off the pain from One for All flaring to life.

"You people and your 'Drama'. So annoying." A cultured voice was heard saying in boredom from all around the group.

"Who's there?!" Enji demanded.

SNAP! SNAP! SNAP!

In answer the three Nomu went all ensnared by long shining black tendrils similar to silky hair, and no matter the titanic strength of the muscular Nomu or the borrowed fire of the Absorb Nomu, or even the super-sharp talons of the flying one, the three creatures were unable to break free or even move.

"Help arrived, finally." Torino said, visibly relaxing...Then a thought came to him…

"Who the hell do we know with a Prehensile Hair Quirk?" he asked aloud.

"Not one of mine." Enji admitted.

"Not a classmate of mine," Mirio added.

"Then who did this?"

Snap!

No answer came except for the tendrils pulling the Nomus away with zero effort, every strand converging in a single point only Enji and Gran Torino could see as it was street level with them.

Chomp!

And said point was the TINY mouth of a fluffy white animal the size of a cat, and the two Pro Heroes watched in morbid fascination as the three giant monsters, each pretty much matching Endeavor himself in sizes, disappeared inside the bottomless Void from which the tendrils came that was Shiro's mouth, with the Ancestral Taotie swallowing the three Monsters whole in a single bite with extreme ease.

Burp! "Kyuuuh!" The tiny thing that Enji could probably hold in his palm of a single hand gave a tiny, satisfied burp once he finished eating the three monstrosities.

Crack! It was faint and subtle, but Torino and Enji heard the cracking of their bones with how hard their jaws dropped at the absurdity of the thing.

"…" The small animal, secretly enjoying their stupor, added salt to the injury by looking at them with his head to the side as if he had done nothing worth mentioning before turning around and walking away with his fluffy tail playfully moving around and disappearing into the shadows to return to his Partner.

"What happened? I can't see a thing from here! Where are those things?!" Mirio yelled from the rooftop he was on, finally snapping the two out of their surprise.

"Isn't that thing one of the pets of that Chef?" Torino asked with a faint voice.

"…" Enji could not respond, he was too occupied wondering if there was ANYTHING normal about Izuku and his Restaurant, and the more he thought about it, the more creep-out he got about that place and its owner.

With Izuku – other side of Hosu -

The young Chef was running through the streets, having lost track of Tenya's whereabouts thanks to yet another Nomu attacking him, and while the thing lasted VERY LITTLE against Blackie's own paw, as the crater with just a tiny smudge of red he had left behind could testify, it still caused Izuku to lose sight of his target.

"Kyuuh!" To his relief Shirou soon rejoined him to wrap himself around Izuku's neck, contrary to the Taotie though, the Lord Dog had still to return from whatever 'Just a moment!' side-tracking activity the Dog mentioned needed his attention.

"Turn left, Host Izuku." To the Chef's relief, The System took pity on him and started giving him directions to find Tenya.

He was also unaware that Shoto Todoroki was about to join the fight, the Hero Student had been sent an "SOS plus location" message from Tenya himself thanks to a moment of clarity the young man got from his imminent death.

With Tenya Iida – deserted Street -

"I am about to die...I could not avenge you, brother." Tenya thought as the effects of Stain's Quirk kicked-in and he fell on the floor paralyzed.

"GODDAMNIT!" Katsuki also roared in defiance as soon as the Killer kicked him next to Tenya once finished covering him in cuts from his knives and paralyzing him as well.

"And you two are supposed to be Heroes? Two children trowing tantrums and incapable of even comprehend what a real Hero is about? Pathetic! The world will be a better place without you." Stain said with a disgusted tone, licking away the blood on one of his blades while stalking closer to the two students.

"FUCK OFF, PSYCHO!" Katsuki answered, snarling like a beast.

"You especially! Raving, spitting and cussing the world around you! What kind of Hero does that!? What kind of Hero inspires people by cursing them!? You are no Hero! You are a Bully! And bullies can only be put-down like rabid dogs." Stain answered, showing Katsuki the long knife in his hand with a wide, deranged snarl.

"S-Shut up!"

"No, you will shut-up. Nobody will miss you, boy. If ever, lots of people will celebrate the death of a pathetic, vulgar, insufferable egomaniac like you." The Killer answered, rising his blade over his head.

"SHUT THE FUCK UP!" Katsuki answered in defiance, and ignoring the stinging in his eyes at those words.

"You are no Hero! You are not even good as a Villain! You are good for nothing! So killing you is just an act of mercy." Stain answered.

"STOOOOOOP!" Tenya yelled in horror, his wide eyes watching powerless as a classmate of his was about to die because of his own stupidity.

"Farewell, pretender." Stain declared as his knife slashed down towards Katsuki's neck.

"Okay, that's enough for tonight. Whitey, protect those two!" a new voice said, sighing.

"Understood!" soon followed by a metallic voice as a very tall robot with a round head and chubby belly landed heavily in front of the two Hero students, forcing Stain to jump back to avoid being squashed.

"Who is it!?" Stain growled in anger.

"Just a Chef passing-by." Izuku answered, walking into the scene.

"Chef Izuku?" the paralyzed Tenya said with a gasp at seeing the young man as well walk out from the shadows.

"You should thank Ochako if I am here, you dumbass! We'll talk later about how stupid your idea was!" he answered.

"Another Hero?" Stein asked, sneering.

"Not a Hero, I have not a Quirk so I can't be one. I am just a Chef." Izuku answered with a shrug.

"So a Quirkless is standing in my way? Why for? You can see how ROTTEN Hero Society has become! They are just posturing Prima Donnas hunting for 'Followers' and 'Thumbs-ups'! They are not worth protecting! They are weak links that must be removed to strengthen the chain!" the Hero Killer declared with wide, crazed eyes.

"Trust me, I can tell by myself that some Pros are doing this just for the Fame, because that happens in my line of work too! So-called Chefs that hate newcomers just because they are afraid of being surpassed and have their precious Spotlight stolen. I see them every damn day." Izuku admitted with a sigh while grabbing one of Stein's discarded knives to study it.

"So you see why what I am doing is necessary! This is a cleansing! This is-"

"Unbalanced."

"Uh?"

"The blade of this knife. It's unbalanced of three grams on the front. You modified its grip, isn't it?" Izuku asked while looking at the edge of the long machete with narrowed eyes.

"Eh! Had to make some jury-rigging on the fly after a Pro Hero managed to break its handle when they arrested me the first time, since then I never managed to find proper substitute parts." Stein answered.

"...How many people died because of this knife?" Izuku asked.

"Six Pretenders. You can say it is one of my favourite when it comes to removing the filth polluting Hero society." Stein answered, cackling.

"And now you want to kill these two too?" Izuku asked while moving in front of the downed Katsuki and Tenya.

"They won't be missed, I assure you. Let me do my job and you'll see that you will have plenty of proper Heroes to root for!" the Hero Killer declared while preparing a new duo of knives.

"And here is where our ideals clash…" Izuku answered, sighing.

"Uh?"

"You call them Pretenders...But I call them Customers. And as a Chef I can't let the first passing-by threaten, or worse, kill my customers." Izuku said with his grip on the machete tightening.

"So you want to play Hero?!"

"No. As I said, I am a Chef, nothing more."

"I have nothing against you, kid. But if you want to play Hero...THEN DIE AS ONE!" Stein roared as he dashed towards him.

"I remind you once again that I am a Chef. I know how to use a knife, even a sub-par piece of steel like this one…" the young man answered while taking a ready stance.

"Uh?" the two Students behind him muttered, confused.

"DIE!" Stein bellowed once upon Izuku with both knives raised to strike him down.

"...Tsubame Gaeshi!" (Swallow Reversal) the young Chef's voice echoed in the empty street as his borrowed knife moved.

Stein and both Katsuki and Tenya then saw something impossible happen: a single blade moving so fast it split into three to attack the Hero Killer from three different directions at the same time, and since the attacker was a Quirkless, that meant they were witnessing only pure skills and speed transcending the very Laws of Physics to enact Judgment.

SNAP! SNAP! SNAP!

"Guh!…" as soon as the attack landed, the Hero Killer stumbled back with three deep cuts on his chest and two broken blades in his hands, Izuku's knife too had been snapped under the weight of the attack.

"Damnit, the blade was too much worn-out and could not take the strain!" the young Chef hissed while throwing away the bent stump of iron that used to be the machete.

"What the fuck was that?!" Katsuki asked.

"A silly homage to Kojiro Sasaki I came-up with years ago. Can you two move?" he answered.

"I-I think my legs are moving again, sort of." Tenya answered as he slowly started moving again and shaking heavily.

"Damn you! Why you got in the way!?"

"Because of my ideals, of course." Izuku answered.

"Uh?"

"You say they are bad Heroes just like the ones you killed? Well, they also happen to be GOOD Customers of my Restaurant, and this means it is my duty to protect them!"

"At the cost of your life?" Stein asked with narrowed eyes.

"Eh! Why not? It's the duty of a good Chef to make sure Customers feel safe and satisfied, and I can't feed them if they are dead!"

"...BWAHAHAHAHAHA!" the sudden burst of laugh almost scared the three young men out of their skin.

"Goddamnit! Since when Chefs have started being better Heroes than the so-called Pros?" Stein asked aloud, somehow finding the situation hilarious.

"THERE! IT'S THE HERO KILLER!" an angry voice nearby was heard.

"YOU ARE UNDER ARREST!" soon followed by another.

"Eh! Other Fakers trying to steal the show. Hey, Kiddo."

"Yes?"

"Are you really just a Quirkless Chef?"

"Yes. And I am damn proud to be one!"

"Good. Next time we meet, I want to test two things of you: your Dishes and, more importantly, your Beliefs. Do not let those Pretenders sway you with their stupid idiocies of Fame and Idol bullshit. Otherwise I will kill you too. Farewell!" the Hero Killer declared before running away, soon disappearing between the shadows of the dark streets.

"WAIT!" Izuku yelled to no avail, the Villain was already gone.

"Stop where you are!" the two Pro Heroes that had yelled before ran past the three, soon followed, for the Students' surprise, by Midnight herself and Shoto that instead stopped by them.

"Ah! You two! Are you okay?!" Nemuri asked with wide eyes.

"We-We are okay, Professor!" Tenya answered.

"Sorry I took so long, she wanted to know why I was running in the direction of a Serial Killer." Shoto said.

"Yeah, it was close, but luckily we had some reinforcements. You okay, Izuku?" Katsuki asked.

"…"

"Hoy?" he asked again.

"...Thank God he is gone!" the young Chef yelled in relief while falling on his knees.

"You are scared?!" both Hero Students and teacher behind him yelled as one.

"Of course I am! He was a 'Professional' Hero Killer! How could I not be scared?!" Izuku answered, looking ready to cry.

"Considering you torn him a new one, I don't fucking believe you!" Katsuki replied.

"While a bit crass...That is not exactly a wrong way to put it." Tenya added.

"So you scared him away?" Nemuri asked, looking at him unsure.

"I just bought some time until you others arrived," he answered while still breathing heavily in worry.

"You almost cut him to pieces, that did more than just buy time," Tenya answered.

"You joking?! With that crappy knife I could only chain three blades for my Tsubame Gaeshi! The thing snapped in half mid-way through the third slash and I had to cut it short! I couldn't even cut through Stein's knives fully!" the other answered.

"Chain what?" Midnight asked, confused.

"...H-How many slash can you chain at your best?" Tenya asked, sounding tense instead.

"Uh?...One hundred or so? Depends if I am cutting an Ingredient big or small, I created that technique to chop Ingredients after all, not people. If you watched the Livestreams when I challenged others Chefs, you already saw me do it." the young Chef answered, unsure.

"BULLSHIT!" Katsuki shrieked with bulged-out eyes.

"Language!" Nemuri hissed.

"Were you trying to kill him?" Tenya asked, voice faint.

"NO! I just wanted to buy time for help to arrive! I used such a bad knife just for this reason, and I angled the slashes so to only wound him! But because of the poor state of that knife though I could not hit fast or strong enough to do it properly, so he managed to partially use his own knives to defend himself." Izuku answered.

"Good to know." Tenya answered, sighing in relief.

"Sorry to butt-in, but I need the full story, I don't understand what happened," Nemuri begged with a groan.

"I was just passing-by and saw them in danger, so I asked Whitey to help them, in the meantime Stain-san had gone through some spiel about Cleansing Society and attacked me, I just defended myself." Izuku answered sighing.

"Does it match what happened?" Midnight asked.

"Well, yeah...It is what happened, somehow." Katsuki answered.

"I-"

"You will keep your mouth shut, Iida-san. We will have a LONG talk back in UA about overstepping and even going on Revenge Quests." Nemuri cut him off abruptly.

"Quest of...I...Did Uraraka…"

"Nope! That was me." Izuku answered, walking towards the Hero Student.

"Y-You? You got in the way of Just-"

BOOOOM!

The Shock-wave of the punch alone kicked up a strong wind, but Nemuri and Katsuki only got that to worry about, Tenya instead got the full blunt of the Chef's punch landing on his face with inhuman strength, strong enough he was sent flying and tumble on the floor several times.

"…!" Breath had been completely knocked out of him, and once finished rolling on the floor, the starry sky was all Tenya could see in front of him from his lying on the ground, even if his eyes were already swelling-up...Then Izuku's disappointed frown filled his entire field of vision.

"...Listen well, Avenger." The Chef said, bending down to look Tenya in the eyes, even if with how mangled his entire face was, telling where the eyes were had already become difficult.

"You were about to die. You were about to throw your life away had a damn Chef not decided to stick his nose where he was not supposed to. Even Shoto-san would have arrived too late to save you, and you would have gotten yourself killed AND gotten a classmate killed as well, all just to appease your sense of Justice.

You were about to fail and die and would have left your brother behind wondering why it happened, and let me tell you this: he would have felt guilty himself about your death, your classmates would have felt bad about your death and your parents would have been devastated at burying you…Would have it been worthy then, you selfish 'Hero'?" Izuku asked with a disappointed voice.

"…" Tenya had at least the decency to stay quiet after that.

"You-"

"Yes, yes. I punched a Hero and all that, I'll follow you to UA so we'll decide the punishment. As long as these two are alive, it was worth it." Izuku answered, rolling his eyes.

"I just have some more questions, nothing else." Nemuri answered, sighing in dismay at the entire mess of a night that had befall on Hosu that day.

Sigh! "At least I did maintain my promise to Ochako...Now it's up to them to save Tenya-san from his own stupidity, I wanted nothing to do with this…" The Chef muttered with a sigh of dismay while following the Heroes.

Luckily, besides the tens of people wounded and the damages to property made by those Nomu, there were no deaths, so Izuku only had to answer to A LOT of questions about the attack and his part in it, especially about Shiro's own intervention that Gran Torino and Endeavor still insisted being way too intense.

It was when Izuku and Whitey finally walked out of UA escorted by Present Mic that from a pitch-black tear in reality Blackie made his reappearance.

"KYAH!" And Mic will deny, if asked, that he shrieked in surprise at the Lord Dog's sudden appearance.

"Where were you!?" Izuku asked, exasperated.

"Relax, kiddo! This Lord Dog smelled bullshit while we were traveling and took care of it, just a couple playful caresses of my exquisite Paw and all was back to normal." Blackie answered in smug pride.

"What kind of bullshit?" Izuku asked while he and his pets and Robot walked away, leaving behind a heavily-huffing Hizashi still leaning against the tall walls of UA to recover from his quasi-stroke.

"Ooh! Nothing worth your worry, just a Toy believing they were Dragon able to swallow the Heavens, this Lord Dog merely reminded them the Pecking Order and their position in it." The Dog answered, chuckling.

"...Nothing illegal, I hope." Izuku asked.

"Oh, please, kiddo! This Dog is a Lord! Not a ruffian!" Blackie answered while rolling his eyes at the accusation.

"I'll trust your judgment."

"As you always should, Kiddo!" the other answered with a literal barking laugh.

Mini-flashback – While Izuku and the others were in Hosu – Blackie's Location -

Momo heard of the commotion happening in Hosu thanks to a special edition of the news interrupting every show for an emergency broadcast, briefly catching her attention mid-training with the Pro Hero she was having her Internship with.

"My God, I hope everything is alright!" She muttered in worry.

Unseen behind her, blending with the shadows of a nearby alleyway, a thin young adult with chaffed skin and his face hidden by the hood of his hoodie snarled at her in hatred.

"There she is...The woman of that fucker…" The recently-healed Shigaraki hissed in animal anger while glaring at her with the one eye he still possessed after his various encounters with Blackie.

He was now drooling almost non-stop, something All for One's doctor said was a combination of the damage the boy's body took and his less-than-stellar mental health, and speaking of which, both Doctor and Kurogiri had noticed how Shigaraki's sanity had took a steep dive after the various defeats and beating he received from a dog, with both Nomu and old man voicing to AfO their worries at the Quasi Leader of the League of Villains becoming every day more deranged, and not in a "Good Villain" way.

"Huhuhuhu! First I will have the Nomu tear her apart, then I will disintegrate the body parts leaving behind the head and then I will deliver the head to the Chef and spit on it! Once seen him cry enough I will disintegrate him and that fleabag and piss on the ashes! Huhuhu!" Breaking down in mad giggles, Shigaraki motioned to the humanoid Nomu walking on all four behind him to move closer.

"Guuuuh!" The demented thing drooled from the over-sized maw filled in razor-sharp teeth it possessed, clearly hungry.

"Yeees! Go eat the bitch, Nomu! Play around and break her down to chunks! Have fun!" Shigaraki ordered with a wide, unblinking eye.

"Once again you fail to learn your lesson, Toy?" Blackie said, appearing behind the two.

"YOU! NOMU! KILL THAT FUCKING FLEABAG!" Shigaraki screamed with a shriek, so mad he stopped caring about who could hear him.

"GUAOOOOH!" And as the obedient mutant it was, the Nomu pounced.

"Huhuhu! My dear Toy, I thought it was clear what was your role in life. TO BOUNCE FOR YOUR LORD DOG!" Blackie answered while delicately rising his exquisite paw.

SPLAT! BOOOM!

And as soon as he playfully swatted down, the Nomu's entire body was reduced into a fine red mist of disintegrated flesh, while Shigaraki bounced again, landing inside a dumpster.

"Tch! Such a bold Toy. I am really getting bored of him already…" Blackie answered, walking out of the alley to meet Momo.

"Blackie?! Was that you?" She asked.

"Indeed. A little pest was about to attack you, and since this Lord Dog was bored, I decided to play with it a little, too bad it was even less durable than the one I played with the first time we met." He answered.

"...Yeah...Less durable than that…" Momo answered with a strained smile as flashes of the USJ Incident momentarily resurfaced in her memory.

"Really, this Dog as a Security System is way too Overkilling it." The young woman thought with a sigh.

"Well, inconsequential issues aside, this Lord is feeling bored, will you mind if I stick around until you are done, maybe a walk will finally break my monotony." Blackie said, yawning.

"Ookay, but no fighting, please. There is no need to paw everything to death," She answered.

"Fair enough, I'll just be a silent spectator, lead the way, girl." Blackie answered with a very condescending tone, already sounding bored, but still following Momo around.

"Eeeh! The things I do for those noodles…" The Lord Dog thought in self-commiseration.

Meanwhile behind him, Kurogiri finally located Shigaraki and watched in dismay as the 'Leader' of the League of Villains once again needed intense healing sessions and full-body casts...The Human Nomu only hoped there won't be need of 'Diaper Services' this time as well.

Present Time -

"I see, well, thank you for protecting Momo-chan." The Chef answered with a more mollified tone.

"Huhuhu! This Lord made a promise, so he's going to keep it, you just remember your side of the bargain, kiddo." The Dog answered.

"Sure."

"The System thinks all this acting Host Izuku is going through to hide is abilities is unnecessary. You even acted scared when you weren't, Host." The System admitted.

"They are already asking too many questions as it is, if I show even more they will never stop bothering me! This is already too much of a hassle, and that without me showing all my cards...I just want to manage my Restaurant, damn it!" Izuku answered with a tired groan.

A Week Later – Restaurant -

Izuku and Rumi were standing in the middle of the closed Restaurant while waiting for the countdown for the Dimensional Travel to reach the zero. From the side there were Momo, Ochako and Nejire along with Inko, Hisashi and Momo's parents.

Whitey stood silently behind both while Shiro was peacefully asleep around Izuku's neck, and Eri was a bit sad at seeing her favourite little friend leaving too, but Inko and Rei promised that he would return soon, and she trusted her savior to not leave her alone.

"Really, her? Why not me?!" Momo asked again.

"The choice was based on personality and skills, for this current Mission, Rumi Usagiyama's Attitude Test has a total score of 97%, so the most logical choice was selecting her as a proper Guest Traveler." The System answered.

"Next time?" Izuku offered.

"Fine, just be careful, and do not let her seduce you," She answered, stealing a kiss from his lips that turned her frown into a small smile.

"I can hear you," Rumi answered, frowning.

"Jump down a cliff then." Momo countered, still smiling and without looking at her.

"Girls, be nice." Inko asked, sighing.

"I can't believe you are really asking to be sent to another world, Mo-chan…" Rei admitted in dismay.

"Being at his side is my right, I am not going to renounce to that!" she answered.

"You have nothing to say, Hisashi? Izuku is going to jump Dimensions AGAIN." Saito asked.

"Dimensional travel! The ability to pierce through Reality and see the Multiverse! So much to see and to learn! IwonderifeachdimensionhasitsownrulesofPhysicsandCauseandEffectand mutter mutter mutter mutter mutter mutter mutter mutter!" Hisashi was in his own world while writing hundreds of pages of notes every few seconds, reminding Inko where that particular habit of Izuku came from.

"He'll be back soon, Saito. Give him a moment." Inko answered, sighing.

"Everything will be okay! Whitey can protect Rumi, or whoever comes with me no problem, and should the worse happen, she will be sent back immediately," Izuku said.

"And you?" Rumi said with narrowed eyes.

"I am staying there until time runs out or I am done with my Mission." He answered.

"Me too!" She said.

"Sorry, this time it's not up to you," The Chef said with a sigh and an apologetic smile.

"Tch!" The girl spat in contempt.

"What is your Mission this time?" Ochako asked.

"Collect at the very least two barrels of Dwarven Dark Beer, and create two new dishes with it, enough grapes from an Elven Wine-yard to in future recreate their 'Liquid Gold Wine', and capture the eggs of two Ingredients: The Sea King and the Sky King. Should I manage to kill and collect their meat too, I will also gain access to an Ingredient from the world I lived in as Zaus: Shining Gourami." Izuku answered, sighing.

"Should you complete this Mission in Success and unlock the Special Reward, Host Izuku, you will also gain the last Fragment of the God of Cooking you need to unlock the next utensil of the God of Cooking Kitchen Set." The System added.

"Oh, yes, there is also that...No pressure…" The Chef said with a very forced chuckle.

"Considering the first was a super knife, I can't wait to see the next!" Nejire answered, sounding extremely hyped.

"Me too. The System refuses to tell me what is it." Izuku admitted.

"Let it be a surprise, Host. But this is also the right moment to give you the finished Utensil the System created with the Treasures Host Izuku collected in his previous Dimensional Travel." The Entity said as a small wooden mallet with the head covered in animal carvings appeared in Izuku's hand.

"...A meat mallet?" He asked.

"A Meat Mallet able to change shape and sizes following its Master's will. As a mallet, both sides of the head can become extremely Hot or cold, other than tenderizing or breaking everything struck by it. As an extra, the mallet can change shape: carving knife, meat cleaver, filleting knife and many more. The System suggest calling it Myriad Manifestation Mallet, but The Host can suggest another name."

"...No, No, I think the name fits. Thank you!" The Chef answered, and just like the Dragon Bone knife, the mallet disappeared inside a new tattoo, a new rope appearing on his right wrist, drawn right next to the one housing the knife.

"Very well, should the Host Ascend to the role of God of Cooking, the mallet will be officially recognized as part of your own personal Set." The Entity said.

"I will remember that, yes."

"Good. Everything is ready, commencing inscription of the Teleportation Array, please remain inside the circle." The System said as a circle of runes made of pure light started appearing and revolving around Izuku and Rumi.

"Daaamn...This looks awesome…" Rumi admitted with a low whistle.

Hisashi was now officially in overdrive as his note-taking speed quadrupled, all for Inko's dismay.

"Be careful! Don't go looking for trouble, Icchan!" Both Inko and Rei begged a last time.

"I will! Promise!" he said.

"Rumi…" Momo said with narrowed eyes.

"Yes?" The other answered.

"Be careful...And be back soon, both of you." She asked, her expression softening.

"Don't worry, I'll bring him back alive and without a scratch." Rumi answered with a thumbs up.

"Thank you."

"Boss?" Ochako said.

"Yes?" Izuku answered.

"Come back alive...Please…" She begged.

"I will." He answered.

"You better," Nejire added, this time not with her usual smile, and that really did break Izuku's heart a little.

"Array completed. Commencing teleportation!" The System declared.

"Don't leave me!" Eri asked.

"Never! Just a couple hours and I will return, With a souvenir! Promise!..." Izuku answered, right before and explosion of light engulfed him and the others and he was gone.

"...I don't want a souvenir…" Eri muttered, sad.

"Just until tonight, ten hours and he will be back." Inko answered, smiling gently.

"But one hour is long...And ten is lots of hours…" The kid muttered.

"They will pass in a flash, promise." Rei answered, patting her head.

"Come here, Nejire-chan will teach you a secret technique that makes time move faster!" Nejire said, scooping the kid in her arms so that both could float around.

"Really?!" Eri asked in wonder.

"Uh-hu! Works every time!" she answered with a wide smile.

"Wooow!"

"...Momo?" Ochako whispered once seen Nejire being distracted by helping Eri.

"Yes?" She answered.

"We need to talk...Come with me for a second…" She whispered, pulling the other girl slightly away.

"...I am listening."

Meanwhile – Other Dimension – Underground Tunnels of a mine deep under a mighty mountain -

Right in the heart of an extremely tall, majestic mountain, deep underground, in the very belly of mother Earth and inside tunnels dug through the pure naked rock under the very pillars of the sky above, Dwarves worked.

Hundreds of them, short and stout men with muscles as hard as iron tempered by hundreds of years of mining work, generations after generations of proud warriors and even prouder miners able to take a mere mountain, hollow it out, and give birth to everlasting cities underground.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

This specific mountain though had just the bare bones of a City has the great majority of its space had been fully devoted to harvest the seemingly-unlimited riches of ores and gems they kept digging out in absurd quantities day after day, and this happening for entire centuries.

Today was a particularly good day for the Dwarves there since the newest tunnels they had made had apparently found the biggest veins of ores to date, a surprise worth their greatest celebrations, and bringing them enough joy they actually sang while digging, instead of just grunting and focusing fully on their excavation, and their deep gruff voices all joined in an intense, loud chorus of their most ancient and sacred song...

I am a Dwarf and I am digging a hole!

Diggy-Diggy Hole!

Diggy-Diggy Hole!

CRACK!

Still hitting the rock tirelessly, and on time with their glorious song, one of the short but very burly workers gave a new swing of pickax to the wall in front of him, and an entire section of it crumbled to dust all at once.

I am a Dwarf and I am digging a hole!

Diggy-Diggy Hole!

Diggy-Diggy Ho-

"Hello!"

"KYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!"

Izuku's sudden appearance in front of the guy though interrupted the song in the entire mine thanks to the dwarf's LOUD shriek of surprise that echoed everywhere for several seconds.

"…"

"…"

"Wow, Arlon. What a majestic girlish scream! Have you dropped yer balls, perhaps?" The dwarf right next to him asked with a snort.

"SHUT UP! The lad surprised me, that's all! He just emerged from the bloody wall!"

"Sorry about that, I don't know why me and Rumi appeared here of all places," Izuku answered, sheepish.

"Ugh! Smells like a pigsty here," Rumi added once both walked out of the small hole in the wall they both were in to see the main body of the mine.

Sniiiiff! "Not me!" one of the Dwarves answered once given a long sniff to his armpit.

"I took a bath last week, so it's not me either." another answered from the sidelines.

"Who are you, fellas? It's not everyday we extract a human and a Viera from the rock. We are more of a gold and gemstones mine, ye see." The apparent Leader of the squad asked, walking up to them and leaning on his own pickax in a carefree manner.

"Viera?" Rumi asked.

"Bunny ears, skin the color of bronze and an arse ya can bounce a gold coin on, yer kind are easy to spot. Even if you are on the short side, yer still nice." he answered while fixing his hair and flashing a wide smile.

"Already taken, shorty." Rumi growled in answer.

"By the kiddo?"

"The kiddo can shove a hand up your ass and pull you inside out," she countered with her eyes narrowing dangerously.

"Ooooh!" the other Dwarves around them echoed as one.

"Shut yer trap!" their boss shrieked with a red face.

"Returning to the matter at hand, where are we exactly?" Izuku asked with a groan.

"You are lost? Bwahahaha! You are in one of the biggest mines of the Dwarf Kingdom! The Mines of Meria!" the short guy said in pride.

"Of the Land of...Central Soil?" Izuku asked once re-checked the ridiculous name of the place he had written down in his notes.

"If you translate the lands' name from the ancient tongue it does sound silly, that's why nobody ever does it. But yes, that's where we are." The Dwarf answered.

"Still something," The Chef admitted with a sigh.

"Yep, is there a way out of here?" Rumi asked, already tired of the hot stuffy air in the mines.

"Of course it is! A kiss from the pretty lassie and I'll tell ya!" The Dwarf chief answered while wiggling his eyebrows.

"Over my dead body, you pint-sized moron!" Rumi answered.

"YOU!...Wait, Where is Whitey?" Izuku asked aloud once noticed they missed a member of their group.

BOOOOM!

"KYAAAAAH!" Another dwarf shrieked as a big metallic hand punched its way out of the rock to grab the Dwarf chief's head to lift him off the ground effortlessly.

"Troublemaker, stop molesting the Host and his Guest or you will be stripped as an Example to others!" Whitey declared while walking out of the rock without any effort.

"YE GOT A BLOODY AUTOMATON?! I JEST ASKED FER A KISS, WHAT'S THIS TALKIN' ABOUT STRIPPIN' FELLAS NOW?!" the Dwarf Chief yelled in surprise, and pain, as Whitey's big hand clenched his head just a bit tighter while keeping his entire body up so they could get eye-to-eye.

"Whitey! This midget piece of shit is trying seducing me, strip him!" Rumi ordered.

"Rumi, please…" Izuku said with a groan.

"NO! This thing need to be stopped! I am TIRED of being lusted-on by losers! Yes I am a fucking sexy woman, but people should show some decency, not already starting to wank as soon as they see me! I deserve some respect too!"

Sigh! "We are off on a bad start." Izuku muttered, already massaging his temples to fight off a headache, and he had been in a new world only for two minutes.

"Just this time, please? I will be good and proper then!" Rumi promised.

"...Fine."

"Understood." Whitey answered.

"WHAT ARE YE DOIN?! STOP!"

STRIIIIIP!

"NOOOOOO!"

"Bwahahahahaha! Oh! What a cute lil' pickax, Boss! Very adorable!"

"BOOOO-HOOOOOO!"

"The exit?...Please?" Izuku begged while Whitey tossed the naked, and humiliated, Dwarf Chief aside.

"I…"

Both Whitey and Rumi cracked their knuckles.

Sigh! "This way, just to not stop work further, we are awfully behind schedule as it is." Another Dwarf answered with a sigh, and signaling them to follow him towards an elevator close-by.

"Thank you." Chef and Hero said as one and as soon as the crude, primitive elevator took them away towards the surface, the other Dwarves let out a sigh of relief.

"Okay, the psychos have left, where were we?" One of the others asked.

"We were diggin', what else? Come on!" another answered, smirking.

"YEAAAAAH!" everybody, sans the still crying Chief, yelled as one in answer.

I am a Dwarf and I am digging a hole!

Diggy-Diggy Hole!

Diggy-Diggy Hole!

Just a week later, contrary to what that very song implied, those Dwarves discovered that they COULD actually dig too deep, as the monstrosity of fire and darkness they awoke from its slumber deep under the mountain their were happily mining could testify. But that is a tale for another time.

Meanwhile – Surface – With Izuku and Rumi -

"Soo, no beer?" Izuku asked.

"Eeh! I wish! Delivery is hella late! Somethin' happened in the Capital where we ahev must of the production goin'," The Dwarf answered, sighing in sadness.

"Why you decentralized like that?" Rumi asked.

"We may be minin' gems, but fiscally has been a disaster lately for us Dwarves, besides unions sayin' that 'Brewing Dwarves' can't make booze inside a cave! "Breathable air and decent working conditions" and all that junk." He answered.

"We'll try asking for some beer in the Capital then. Thank you for the help and sorry for the scare and...Well...The Stripping." Izuku answered.

"Naah! It's okay, at least we have somethin' new to put on the murals besides us digging, and it makes for a nice story to tell when drunk. Capital's that way, ye can either go by yerself or by horsie. Jest be careful to not get scammed by those 'Used Horses Salesmen', those bloody leeches are damn near everywhere nowadays." The Dawrf answered.

"We will be careful, thank you." Rumi answered, nodding.

"That's good! Have fun out there! And if you meet a Dwarf with red frilly beard and a scar on the left eye down at the Brewery, tell him Arsin is still waiting for the money he owes! Or I will give him ANOTHER black eye!" The guy said before disappearing back inside the mine and down the elevator.

"Sure!" Izuku answered with a forced smile.

"…"

"Okay, shaky start notwithstanding-" Rumi tried saying.

"Caused by you," Izuku interrupted her with a cheeky smile.

"I was defending my honor, and you yourself looked about to give him a piece of your mind," she answered.

"Touche." The Chef admitted, snorting.

"As I was saying, shaky start or not, I am ready to kick ass and take names! Together with my Favourite Chef!" Rumi declared.

"Huhuhu! Same here, ready to kick ass and take names with the world greatest Bunny Hero." Izuku answered, chuckling amused.

"Hell yeah! Let's go!" She answered, grabbing his hand and running forward towards the Capital.

"This is my last chance...I either make my feelings come across or...Or I don't want to think about it…" Rumi thought in apprehension.

"So...New Mission in another World…I just hope it won't be a pain like the previous one, I don't need a repeat of all those headaches. I just want a peaceful Life, is it asking for too much?" Izuku too was thinking, and he too was feeling anxious, in his case though he was just hoping he won't be calling trouble to him even in another Dimension.

Meanwhile – Capital of the human kingdom -

A Young teen that had fallen down some stairs suddenly got back up to his feet with boundless energy.

"YES! Isekai, Bitch! It's finally happening! And contrary to those Beta Males I will FUCK my Harem! I can't wait! Unlimited Mana and OP Magic, I am a Protagonist, baby!" The young man said with a deranged smile.

"YEEEES! I will have a Big Titty Shy Elf Slave, a Flat-chested Tsundere Mage with an amazing ass, a 'Horny 24/7' beastman girl and a Kuudere priest girl and many more! And contrary to those Losers cucks in Isekai Manga, at the first chance they try enticing me the zip flies down and the dick springs up! I can't wait! HIHIHIHIHIHI! The Loser is now the Winner! BWAHAHAHAHAHA! I WILL HAVE SO MUCH SEX! HAHAHAHAHAHA!" The disturbed boy declared with an insane giggle while running out to enjoy his new life as a Duke's son, especially with all the Maids he had already decided to molest and sleep with.

"From now on I will be known as John Hunter Drake Armageddon Hellblaze! The real Harem King! BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"

At the Opposite side of the Capital -

A Young teen girl was asleep in her bed, sleeping peacefully until her eyes snapped open and a cackle escaped her.

"HIHIHIHI! I can't believe it! It worked! I am inside 'Kingdoms of Romance IV'! As the Main Protagonist! That ritual worked! 'Stupid Internet scam' my ass! I am IN! BWAHAHAHAHA!" The girl said with a psychotic laugh and a maniacal grin.

"First I will fuck the Elf King's son, then the Human King's two sons and then the dashing, 40-years old Guild master of the Thieves Guild! I will finally have my Husbando Harem in real life! BWAHAHAHAHAHA! No more Fanfictions for me! Only the real deal!" The girl said, laughing hysterically as she danced around her room.

"The Fat Goth Loser will finally have all the dicks! I will have so much dick to play around I won't even know what to do with all of it! Orgies! Orgies every night! BWAHAHAHAHAHA! Screw that Air-headed Bimbo that used to be this girl, I will know how to keep all of those hunks to myself as their one and only Mistress! YAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"

"I will take the very name of my SI, as a mark of my dreams becoming reality! I am Blake Elizabeth Meloarna Dementia Raven Way! THE QUEEN OF DICKS! YAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"

In a very generic Tower made of large squared rocks -

"AAAH! The Prophecy! The Prophecy of the Chosen Hero!" An extremely Old woman shrieked in trance while reciting mysterious words in an echoing voice thanks to the 'Magic Frogs' she had just licked following a sacred ritual.

"Write that down! Write that down!" The King of the Men said to his servant.

"When the lightning bolt of empathy will cross the sky right above the kingdom of Men there will be an invocation of mana the likes of which the world has never seen.

Men will be called to explore the stratosphere itself as an interface between grace and joy at the defeat of the Supreme Evil.

We can no longer afford to live with delusion. Without spacetime, one cannot grow. Only the Chosen One blessed by the quantum pea soup will generate this lightning bolt of gratitude and defeat the Demon Lord.

The Hero will align us with transformative life-force and soon there will be a flowering of balance purifying the quantum matrix!"

"Such power! Such Wisdom!" Both King and Servant said as one once heard that absolute nonsense coming out from the woman mid-seizures.

Same time – Generic Cave inside the Land of the Elves -

"AAAH! The Prophecy! The Prophecy of the Chosen Heroine!" An extremely Old male elf shrieked in trance while reciting mysterious words in an echoing voice after consuming a lot of 'Magic Mushrooms' he smoked together with other special herbs...

"Oh, dear! Write that down! Write that down!" The King of the Elves said while tossing behind him a fringe of his long, silky hair.

"At once, my liege," The King's man-slave answered.

"When the Sacred Totality will approach the tipping point a girl will be Chosen! We must learn how to lead her ethereal life in the face of yearning and Imagine an unfolding of what could be!

The Chosen Heroine will lead us to greatness we never experienced in this osmosis of the creative act of star glazing!

We are in the midst of a cosmic condensing of transformation that will become our stepping-stone to the nexus itself of Souls and Moist Matter! We are at a crossroads of empathy and ego! Throughout history, elves have been interacting with the stratosphere via bio-electricity and the Chosen Heroine will bring us to Epiphany!

The Chosen will align us with transformative life-force of the Tomato Soup of Destiny. Soon there will be a flowering of balance the likes of which the quantum matrix has never seen thanks to the Chosen Heroine and her Lighting of justice that will vanquish the Dark Lord!" The old elf declared while 'purifying' his body by letting the Universe have the final say on his bowel control as the smell could soon testify.

"What's he saying?" The servant asked, talking with reverential awe.

"He is speaking the Language of the Gods!" The King of the Elves answered, just as awed.

Outside Reality -

The System saw all this happen, but instead of intervening, like by slaughtering the God and the Goddess that helped the two Morons transmigrate from their respective versions of Earth to that planet and gave to the two Drug Addicts down there the Title of 'Prophet'...The Entity merely stood in wait, silently keeping Fate and Causality working as intended while watching those two brain-dead deities scratch their heads at their Chosen Ones not acting as they expected.

"Killing all four of them can be postponed for now, unless they get in the way of Host Izuku. They will offer good entertainment to The System for the time being." The Entity thought while observing the four beings while making sure NOTHING got in the way of the fairness of the Mission The System gave Izuku.

With Izuku -

"Listen, Dude….I just want two horses. Two DAMN horses!" Rumi said with a grunt.

"But why travel by horses like a pauper when you can travel in style with a carriage!" the man in blinding checkered robes said while pulling Rumi towards a gaudy-looking carriage.

"Look at this! A real steal! Only three hundred days of travel, hand-carved mahogany suspensions, anatomic silk cushions and a powerful 4 horse power pull and jumbo water pouch holder! Even the driver is aerodynamic!

And if you fear to spend a fortune in fuel, fear not! With these new generation horses you will only need four mugs of water and a ball of hay every three hundred leagues! The triumph of horse science!

And look at the baggage area! This wench can hold inside soo much loot from dungeons!" The guy said while slapping the carriage door.

"Listen, I want two horses, that's it." Rumi hissed.

"But it even has a brand-new Stereo Bard system! These two bard twins will sing you and your beloved all the love songs you want! They prefer male company too so your boyfriend won't need to fear them trying anything with you either!" he said, and the two men in bright orange clothes flashed her a thumbs-up from the back of the carriage.

"Maybe you don't understand. I JUST WANT TWO FUCKING HORSES TO RIDE TO THE CAPITAL, GODDAMNIT!" Rumi bellowed.

"Come on, Milady, don't be stingy! I will even add a toaster to the offer! Look!" The guy said while pulling in front of himself a young man that clearly did not want to be there.

"This little guy can toast over a hundred loaves of bread in an hour! A Master Toaster!" he said.

"Help me…I just wanted to pay my student's tuition at the Knight Academy!" The young man pleaded, looking close to tears.

"Silence! Toasters don't talk, they toast bread!"

"Fucking hell…" she groaned to herself.

Behind the girl, instead, Izuku was battling against what seemed to be a door-to-door potions salesman dressed like a generic wizard, robes and hat included.

"Really! I am not interested!" He kept saying.

"Seriously, my boy! How can you live without the All-Fixer-1560! The all-purpose potion that fixes Hair Loss, Virility Loss, Hang nails, Water Retention, Dandruff, Dimpled Body Fat, Bad Breath, That certain embarrassing itchy feeling in your privates, diarrhea, dysentery, Squeaky doors, clogged sinks, flatulence and even conjunctivitis! It even comes orange-flavoured Now! And if you take ten doses, I will give you a 'Magix-Fix' branded leather pouch to drink it from! You'll be the envy of all your friend during Fox Hunts!" The wizard said.

"Really, thank you, but I am not interested!" Izuku answered, trying desperately to take distance from the annoying salesman.

If that was how their adventure started, both Chef and Hero Student dreaded to think what else was on the horizon for them.

"Good morning! Do you have a moment to talk about our Lord and Savior the great King of Druids?" A duo of old men in flowing white robes asked while showing 'pamphlets' inscribed on wooden tablets.

"GODDAMNIT!" Both Izuku and Rumi screeched as one.

Extra File: Dimensional Ingredient Hunt!

A Bodongo-Bango Meat BBQ fit for a GOD!..Or Two.

City – Big garden behind a giant High-Tech Complex -

There was a thick air of happiness in the big garden behind the personal mansion of a world-famous high-tech owner, especially by the poolside where the woman was welcoming her friends for the first birthday of her newborn daughter Bulla.

And the guests varied enormously in looks! From more normal people to a slim guy with a bright pink skin similar to bubble-gum and wearing a white cape to a guy with green skin wearing a white turban.

"I can't believe Bulla-chan is already 1!" Chichi said with watery eyes.

"I know! Time flies soooo faaaast!" Bulma answered, and both started crying.

"Can't see where the problem is, Woman! Is not like you become ugly each year that passes, you remain the same!" her husband answered, rolling his eyes.

"...That is the most Vegeta compliment I have ever heard." Krillin commented, impressed.

"I am more impressed that the description actually holds merit." Piccolo answered.

"Don't be mean, guys. You won't ruin the party with a fight." 18 answered.

"Sorry, dear." her husband answered, chuckling.

"Where is the food? I am hungry!" a young woman with bright pink skin and wild long white hair asked with a childish whine.

"It's okay, 21! We will eat soon. Now be nice." Buu answered.

"Okay! Fine! I'll be good…" 21 answered.

"Still can't believe we are giving you another chance," Vegeta grumbled in answer.

"We did it with you, now we can't be hypocrites and not do the same with her." Gohan answered.

"True!" and Videl chorused right after.

"Tch! Whatever."

"Yooo! Sorry if I am late!" it was at that moment that another guest arrived.

"You are late, Kakarot! You dare miss my daughter's birthday?!"

"Hi, Goku!" Bulma answered with a more easy-going smile.

"Sorry, sorry! I needed to help two guys that were looking for you." The newcomer, Goku, answered.

"...And where are they now?" Bulma asked.

"Uh? Aah! At the door! The young man said he didn't want to barge in uninvited."

"Oh! Must be very well mannered, I will go hear what he needs, I will be back soon." Bulma said while walking towards the entrance.

"So? What did I miss?"

"Nothing, Goku, we barely started." Piccolo answered.

"AWESOME!"

In that precise instant a sphere of light crash-landed in the garden, but curiously it caused no damage upon landing.

"Tch! Having a party without me now, hn? Want me to destroy this planet then?" the new arrival was a skinny humanoid purple cat accompanied by a very tall humanoid being with light-blue skin and white hair styled upward in a gravity-defying way and holding a staff in his hands.

"Didn't know you were even interested," Goku admitted, chuckling.

"Tch!"

"Lord Beerus, be nice, it was you to insist to come here to celebrate little Bulla's birthday!" Whis said, laughing.

"LIES! ALL LIES! We were just passing by! Pure coincidence!" Beerus answered.

"Please don't argue nor fight in my garden! The pool has just been rebuilt after the last time!" Bulma said in annoyance, behind her there were a young man with green hair dressed in green Chef attire, a tall girl with raven hair and a chubby white robot with a soft round belly and a bald head adorned by two large eyes only.

"Hey! It's the guy from before! Hi!" Goku said, smiling wide.

"Good evening, sorry to interrupt your party." Izuku said with an apologetic tone.

"We were told to look for this place, but we were unaware there was a celebration ongoing." Momo added, bowing.

"It's okay, it's okay. You looked very lost and in trouble, so? What do you need?" Bulma answered with a gentle smile.

"Eeeh, well, you see...I was told to look for an Ingredient; no matter who I ask, nobody knows what I am talking about." Izuku answered with a sigh of dismay.

"...Hey, boy." Vegeta said out of the blue.

"Yes?"

"Your Aura feels strange, why?"

"My Aura?" Izuku asked, completely lost.

"The woman with you is normal, but not you. Why?" the guy asked.

"It's true! It does feel unnatural! I totally forgot to ask," Goku admitted.

"An enemy?" Piccolo asked, and subtly every warrior present felt their muscles twitch in preparation for battle.

"Animosity towards the Host detected! Entering Battle Mode!" Whitey said with his eyes turning from white to red.

"Kyuuhn?" at the same time, Shiro awoke and once sensed the fighting spirit in the air he started releasing his own, immediately turning the air dense as all of them stood waiting for the others to make the first move.

"Guys?" Goku asked, confused.

"Lord Beerus?" Whis muttered with a raised eyebrow.

"Yes?" the purple humanoid cat said, as the only one besides Whis to not care about the current situation.

"I believe we are in front of a Chosen." The Angel said with a meaningful look.

"Chosen?" Beerus asked, just a step away from falling asleep in disinterest.

"A God of Cooking Candidate, I mean." Whis said, and as he expected, the eyes of the God of Destruction became as big as saucers.

BOOM! BOOM!

"NOBODY TOUCHES HIM, YOU SAVAGES!" Beerus screeched while appearing in front of the two teens in less than an instant, he had also punched the back of both Goku and Vegeta's heads so hard the two were now buried waist deep upside-down underground.

"Why was I punched too? I did nothiiiing!" Goku was heard asking with a whine while still buried underground.

"What's happening?" Videl asked.

"Oh, My! I guess a bit of explaining is in order," Whis said.

"Yeah, yeah, you do that! Are you okay instead, boy? Nothing wrong? Hands still good?" Beerus asked with a manic look on his face.

"I...I am okay?" Izuku asked, nervous.

"Oh! That's perfect! So you came here to cook for me? I am touched by the gesture, and while I normally do not accept gifts, I can be magnanimous and make an exception this time!" The purple cat said with a smug smirk.

"Wow. Talk about a big ego." both Izuku and Momo thought at the same time.

"You with him, missy?" Master Roshi asked with a lecherous smile.

"I am his girlfriend, yes." Momo answered with a vitriolic tone.

"...Is that fool bothering you, Madame?" Beerus asked with a dark tone.

"MEEEEP!" The old man squeaked and hid behind Buu.

"Please calm down, my Lord." Whis said, sighing.

"Can I get an explanation?!" Vegeta demanded once he dug his way out from the hole he was punched into.

"Oh, look! A black-haired Bakugo." Izuku KNEW he was not supposed to laugh at Momo's jab, but he could not help himself.

"...I don't know what a Bakugo is, but it sounds annoying." Piccolo muttered, unsure.

"Basically our Guest here is on the road to become a deity, only instead of a God of Destruction, he has been chosen to become a God of Cooking." Whis explained.

"God of Cooking?!" Goku asked with starry eyes.

"Wait, I heard about that legend." Vegeta said.

"Before or after the Super Saiyan one? You seem to love Legends." Piccolo asked, rolling his eyes.

"Stuff it, Namekian!"

"Our Universe had not seen a Candidate in several hundred thousand years. The requirements are simply too insanely high." Whis added.

"And one is finally in front of me! This is indeed a day to celebrate!" Beerus said, smiling wide.

"But why were you looking for me?" Bulma asked.

"Ah! Yes, you see, I was sent in this world to find the meat of a Bodongo-Bango...Whatever it is, but no matter who I ask, nobody can help me. Finally a guy suggested to ask to a certain Bulma Briefs for help since she is smart and has connections. And here we are." Izuku answered.

"Bodongo-Bango?" Bulma repeated, confused.

"Yes, the name sounds very primitive, but besides that, Izuku's Sponsor did not give us many details. Only to come to this planet and ask for help to locate it." Momo answered.

"Unfortunately I never heard of it." Bulma answered.

"Oh! I-It's okay, don't worry! I will find a solution! No need to worry!" Izuku said immediately once seen her downcast expression.

"Aren't you a sweet guy," she answered, ruffling his hair.

"T-Thank you, madame." The shy young man muttered in answer.

"Uuuhm...Maybe I can help you find it, in exchange of you cooking something for us, of course." Whis offered.

"Of course! I can do that!"

"Good job, Whis!" Beerus chorused with a pleased tone.

"Let's see...Bodongo-Bango...What planet does house it...Oh...Oh, dear…"

"What now?" Momo asked in dread.

"Ehm...Lord Beerus...Remember that planet you destroyed to fit your quota last week?"

"...Nooo...Don't tell me…" Beerus muttered in dismay.

"You blew-up the only planet in our universe that housed that animal." Whis answered.

"GODDAMNIIIIIIIT!" The Purple cat roared while his body got momentarily enveloped in a purple flaming aura of energy that shook even the sky.

"Whyyyyyy! I knew I should have destroyed the one next to it! But NOOOO! I wanted a big explosion and the other was too small! GOD FUCKING DAMNIT!" The God of Destruction was now throwing a God-Class tantrum while flaying both arms and legs.

"What now?" Izuku asked Momo.

"I have no clue." Momo answered, saddened by her beloved boyfriend's sorrowful expression.

"Host, the being in front of you can have the Ingredient delivered from another Universe. The System knew the planet had been destroyed, so a countermeasure had already been organized, luckily the Host has met this being by himself without the help of The System. Please ask them for help, the capture will still count as valid." The System answered.

"Is this yet another try at apologizing for the LONG streak of chaotic Missions I got in lately?"

"Fifth time MUST be the charm, Host." The System answered in what almost sounded like a hopeful tone.

"Ehm, sorry, but…"

"Yes?" Both Whis and Beerus said as one.

"Can't you, you know, have it delivered from another Universe?" Izuku asked.

"Eeeh! There is a bit of red tape, I need to ask permission first," Whis answered, unsure.

"Can you try, please?" Izuku asked.

"Okay. Let's see...Oh! Indeed there is a copy of that planet in Lord Champa's Univer-"

"NO! Anything but that fatso's Universe!" Beerus answered.

"Uh?"

"Lord Beerus' brother." Whis explained.

"I Don't wanna! If you ask for permission there he will know I have a God of Cooking Candidate here! I want to be the one with a Candidate owning him a favour!"

"There is no need for me to own you a favour, sir, I will still cook for you whenever you ask!" Izuku answered with a gentle smile.

"Tch! FINE! Go ask that fat-ass. But I want MY portion to be bigger than his!" Beerus said with a petulant tone.

"I'll see what I can do." Izuku answered, grateful.

"Hohoho! Wonderful! I'll make the call then!" Whis said, moving slightly aside to talk directly to the ball on top of his staff that immediately shined in azure light.

"Hello! What can I do for you?" The voice at the other side was female.

"Hello, Vados! I have a situation here and I really need your help!" Whis said.

"Uh? What is it?"

"My Lord has recently destroyed a planet to fit his quota. Unfortunately one of those planets housed a species called Bodongo-Bango, and now I really need...How many do you need?" Whis asked.

"A male and a Female for breeding and a dead one for cooking now as a Test...Preferably if it died painlessly, if it is not a problem." Izuku answered.

"You heard that?" Whis asked.

"Loud and clear! But you know how complicated it is to send animals and Ingredients from a Universe to the other." Vados answered.

"I know!...But the boy is a God of Cooking Candidate...And Lord Beerus is getting very insistent. And I heard Bodongo-Bango meat does MIRACLES for the skin if cooked properly…" The Angel said with a whisper.

"You have a Candidate! Ooh! You naughty Angel! SO you did not want to share?"

"A CHOSEN CANDIDATE!? UNFAAAAAAAIR!" a second voice shrieked petulantly.

"Uh?" Momo muttered.

"That's my brother Champa…" Beerus said, grumbling.

"I wanna go there! I wanna go there!" The God yelled.

"Oh, well. I guess we can make an exception this time. I will be there in a minute!" Vados said with a cheerful tone.

"Ta-ta!" Whis answered, closing the call.

"...Sooo…" Izuku asked.

"A minute and she will arrive, don't worry." Whis answered.

"Thank you!" The Chef answered with a beaming smile.

"So a God of Cooking is a literal title?" Bulma asked.

"Pretty much, they cook food on a level beyond mortal understanding." Beerus answered, looking eagerly at the sky for the delivery to arrive.

"Yeeeeees?" Goku, probably more focused than ever in his entire life, asked.

"...FINE! You can have a taste of my feast, but just because it is the kid's birthday!" The God of Destruction conceded, rolling his eyes.

"How very gracious of you," Chichi answered, rolling her eyes.

"Here I am!" And in that moment a new comet of light landed in the back garden of the mansion, taking with it a fat purple humanoid cat, and two Angels like Whis, only female in this case.

"...Why dear Marcarita joined us?" Whis asked.

"…" Izuku had started to have a bad feeling about the situation.

"This time it will be good, Host. This time it will be good." The System answered, and yet Izuku almost thought the Entity was saying this to itself, more than to him.

"Lord Zeno is chastising my Lord for their unfulfilled quota, so since I had time to kill the Grand Priest gave me permission to take this evening as a small vacation. I am supposed to return after both Lord Zeno have finished chewing my Lord alive." The Angel with pigtails answered, huffing tiredly.

"Luckily a Bodong-Bango has enough meat for everybody. Here they are!" Vados added, unsealing from her staff three enormous creatures.

A Bodongo-bango was apparently the result of somebody trying to cross a wild boar with a Tyrannosaurus: a forty meters tall bright green dinosaur with a faint pig-like head with an elongated mouth and bright yellow fringes on its head and back, for the males, and bright pink for the females.

The two exemplars still alive were clearly paralyzed by something as the lied on the side and could move only the eyes, the other had apparently such a peaceful death it looked asleep.

"Woooo!" Momo admitted in awe at the size and weight of the things.

"The healthiest and plumpest (and most fertile) ones on that planet! Only the best for a Candidate." The Fat God, Champa, declared with a wide smug grin and a river of drool escaping his mouth without an ounce of shame.

"Ass-kisser…" Beerus muttered in distaste,

"Are they good enough?" Izuku asked.

"The animals fulfill The System's requirements. Congratulations for the success of the Mission! Host Izuku can now freely experiment with the Ingredient while The System will had the breeding pair to the Restaurant Storage!" The System answered while teleporting away the two paralyzed Pork-o-saurs.

"Oh Dear! Somebody is helping you then?" Whis asked.

"That's a secret!" Izuku answered with a mischievous wink.

"Not for me!" Whis answered, smirking and checking his staff.

BLAAAARG!

"Sorry, you do not have high enough clearance to access this File." A robotic voice said gently from the scepter after a loud blaring error sound effect,

Sniffle! "...This is humiliating…" Whis said with a whine, and crouching in a corner in shame under the weight of the snorts of derision of everybody else.

"Sorry, but I think it's finally time for me to try this...Sure it's a lot of meat...And apparently this was supposed to be a birthday party…" Izuku said with a knowing smile.

"Ooh, well, you can always take care of the food to apologize," Bulma answered, smirking.

"Of course! I will start immediately, Miss Brief!"

"So very well mannered! See, Vegeta? You could learn a thing or two from him!" she said.

"Grumble! Grumble! Grumble!" The Alien Prince grumbled something clearly not nice under his breath in answer.

"Fascinating, there is a Bakugo in every Universe apparently." Momo muttered in fascination.

As The System had told Izuku, that strange animal could really be called 'The King of Pork Meat', every inch of its body could be used for cooking, and its meat was of a quality comparable to Jewel Meat, a discovery that made Izuku VERY happy to work with it, and its gratitude and heartfelt praise for that Ingredient helped it gain just a bit more savoriness thanks to its gratitude.

The ribs for example were springy and flavorful to such a degree that they didn't even need marinade, their taste was just mellow and rich enough by itself to surpass common pork ribs back home.

"I LOVE THIS!" Goku yelled between mouthfuls while crying tears of joy.

The Sausages released thick streams of grease while cooking, producing crisp and surprisingly-melodious sizzling sounds whenever Izuku moved them on the grill.

"THOSE ARE MINE, KAKAROT!" Vegeta shrieked in anger as he and his eternal rival kept trying to defeat each other in a challenge about who could eat more sausages.

Bacon-wrapped Pork Tenderloin, something that had IMMEDIATELY mesmerized both Gods of Destruction thanks to the sublime crunchy exterior tenderly wrapping the syrupy and juicy tenderloin meat under it.

"I want another plate!" Champa yelled.

"ME TOO! BRING ME ONE FIRST!" Beerus yelled right after.

"NO! ME FIRST!"

"This is my Universe, Fatso!"

"The Ingredient comes from MY Universe, You skinny Bastard!"

"Amazing! The best Pork Chops in White Truffle Sauce I have ever eaten!" Bulma admitted, shamelessly going through her third plate.

"Can you try to have him work for you?" Chichi, at her fifth plate, asked.

"You just say that to have an excuse to come here for dinner!" her friend answered, laughing.

"Culprit as charged!" Chichi answered, making both women share a laugh together.

"I am glad you all like what I am making, this Ingredient is amazing to work with, I love it!" Izuku said with a wide smile.

"Huhuhu! I am glad he is enjoying himself." Momo said, chuckling.

"You must really love him to follow him around through multiple Universes." 18 asked her.

"Yes, we do love each other a lot! Maybe even too much, Hee-Hee-Hee!" She answered, smiling a bit too wide.

"Oooh, he is Intense during that too?" 18 asked with a malevolent glint in her eyes.

"Hee-Hee-Hee! I can't say…"

"Come ooon, spill!"

"What can I say...My Icchan is very needy, we four are hardly enough to satisfy his hunger!" Momo admitted, ashamed and yet giggling.

"...Four?" Chichi and Bulma Immediately pounced on that.

"There are four of us and only one of him, and yet we are the ones overwhelmed. I am a VERY lucky future bride." Momo answered, tone a bit smelling of smug pride.

"Hehehehe! We all are! To the blessing of having Partners with unlimited stamina! TO US!" Bulma answered, raising her glass with a wide smile.

"To us!" Chichi, 18 and Momo answered, clinging their glass with hers

"What are they talking about?" Goku asked.

"Bah! Women things, probably." Vegeta answered, uninterested.

"Everything is splendid! But I have to ask...What about dessert?" Whis asked.

"Oh! Don't worry, as a thank you I will prepare some chocolate cake." Izuku answered.

"Chocolate? Wonderful!" Both Vados and Marcarita answered in chorus…

And Izuku's sense of dread reached the SSJB Level in just a second.

Ten Minutes Later -

"This is very unprofessional…" Whis said with a sigh of dismay.

"Vados! Marcarita! Come down this instant and stop making a fool of yourself!" The Grand Priest said with a very ashamed expression.

"DESTRUCTION CONCERTO!"

"SONATA OF PURIFICATION!"

Both angel girls kept bombarding each other in a literal endless stream of energy attacks and giant explosions that turned the sky completely green every few seconds…

All this while Izuku and Momo stealthily ran away towards the extraction point The System had set up for them.

"Does this happen every time?!" Momo whisper-yelled.

"Yes! And I have no idea why!" Izuku answered, having long ago run out of tears to cry at his misfortune.

"It's not like you two cannot visit him either! Just locate his Universe and go there." The Grand Priest said in dismay.

"RIGHT!" Both Angels said at the same time.

"...SYSTEM! HURRY!" Both Izuku and Momo shrieked as one, soon disappearing in a blinding flash of light.

"Ufufufufu! You can't escape an Angel, dear sir. I can find you wherever you are!" Marcarita said.

"Marcarita! NO!" Vados said.

"Marcarita yes!" The other answered.

Izuku wondered what he did to deserve all this trouble, and The System also started questioning it.
