Several months passed after the establishment of the Dawn Guild. During that time, several guilds also formed following the leader of the Dawn guild. Such as the Arashi Guild founded by S-rank Tatsumi Fujishima and the Moonlight Guild founded by S-rank hunter Yumiko Aoi.

In addition to these two guilds, several small guilds have also been established, but their popularity is not as famous as the three guilds. Currently, in Japan, the Dawn Guild held the position of the number one guild. With a considerable difference from the Arashi Guild occupying second place.

All thanks to the hard work of one person who manages everything from behind the scenes. He was the one who worked hard managing the dungeons, raid teams, armaments, and guild budgets.

And now the man was trapped in his room with piles of documents filling the room. His eyes and hands kept moving between the documents in his hand and the computer keyboard.

Aside from Izuku who was in the room, several shadow soldiers he summoned also helped him organize the documents. Thanks to his ability that allows him to connect with his shadow soldiers, Izuku's job has become a little lighter. Even so, he couldn't see the last documents from this pile since they kept coming.

While Izuku was focusing, a knock sounded on his door. Without looking away from the document in front of him, Izuku directly motioned for the person who knocked in.

" come in "

The door opened and revealed Sugimoto who was visiting with a bento box in his hand. He looked at the scene in front of him with puzzled and horrified eyes. He witnessed how shadow soldiers paced around the room carrying documents.

" You seem to be busy "

" As you can see, these documents have not stopped arriving since the success of the last raid and the number of applicants who have submitted. "

" Right, I remember it was quite exciting "

A week ago, the Dawn guild completed a raid on an A-rank dungeon classified as high-rank. They finished it with just 5 first-team men. Some media even made this raid their headline. Thanks to that, the popularity of their guild is even increasing.

The number of people trusting their guilds increased, all thanks to the people working behind the counter.

Sugimoto just snorted at how hard Izuku worked. For some reason, he felt bad when he saw Izuku working hard without complaining.

" I understand you are busy, but at least pay attention to your health, here, eat this "

Sugimoto put the bento box he carried on Izuku's table. That's when Izuku looked away from the computer and faced Sugimoto.

" Yes thank you "

Leaving Izuku back at his job, Sugimoto walked out of the room. When he was about to go to the elevator, he ran into Todoroki who happened to also be visiting Izuku.

They then exchanged light greetings as their eyes met.

" Todoroki, are you planning to meet Izuku? "

" yes, I have something to talk to him about. "

" I see, I just want to say that that kid is busy right now, but it seems that you can be a good reason to force the child to rest "

" Did he lock himself in his room again? "

" just say so "

" Okay, I'll make sure to take him out. "

" I'm counting on you "

After nodding lightly, Todoroki walked away from Sugimoto and went straight to Izuku's room.

Sensing a presence approaching his room, Izuku thought Sugimoto had something left in his room, and he let him in before there was even a knock. Although confused for a moment, Todoroki immediately opened the door. As Todoroki arrived in the room, his reaction was more or less similar to Sugimoto's.

" You seem to be busy "

Izuku lifted his head from the monitor as soon as he recognized a voice different from Sugimoto's.

" Todoroki-san? What's the matter? "

" Nothing just visits you and wants to talk about something "

" About what? "

" Your offer at that time, is it still valid? "

Izuku was silent for a moment, thinking about which offer did Todoroki talk about. But it didn't take him too long before he realized which one. He looks at Todoroki's face, seeing if there's any change that he just jooking. But seeing the serious expression on Todoroki's face made Izuku certain that he was not joking.

Izuku then pull his hand away from his keyboard and smiled at Todoroki.

"I've been waiting for your answer, but I wonder what made you decide so suddenly?"

" That "

A few days before, Todoroki and his team were carrying out a raid on a dungeon that appeared in Tokyo. With himself as the leader, he brought 4 other members with him.

Todoroki may not be cut out as a leader, but he is undoubtedly capable of bringing his team safely to the boss room. His potential and strength are enough for him to rise to S-rank. Even though Todoroki has no interest in it, it seems someone has already prepared his re-evaluation without his knowledge.

The raid that started in the morning ended at noon, as it took them quite a while to get the ghoul corpses out of the gate due to their size.

As soon as he finished his report, Todoroki decided to head back first. For some reason, he had to take a detour to the dormitory because there was an incident of attacking a villain in an area he usually passed through which annoyed him a bit.

And as he was taking a detour, he accidentally bumped into someone causing the person to fall and her luggage scattered.

" Ouch! "

That person frantically collects back the things scattered on the floor. Seeing this, Todoroki then tried to help the person collect her things, but as he was about to hand them over to that person, how surprised he was when he saw the person's face.

White hair with a hint of red, glasses, and a very familiar face. In front of him was the figure of Todoroki Fuyumi, the little sister he had not seen for a long time.

Instantly his head went blank, everything around him seemed to stop. His outstretched hand was cold. He couldn't think of anything because of the panic at this unexpected reunion.

Meanwhile, Fuyumi who fell finished collecting her fallen things. Seeing the hand stretched out towards her, Fuyumi accepted it happily, without noticing the confused and panicked face that the person who helped her made.

Feeling hands touching his fingertips, Touya immediately snapped out of his reverie and helped Fuyumi up.

" I'm sorry I was in a rush so I didn't notice "

" no... I'm also sorry for not paying attention "

Hearing a familiar voice, Fuyumi looked at the face of her interlocutor. Seeing a familiar irritated face, Fuyumi immediately recognized him.

" Ah! You... aren't you Izuku-kun's friend? If I'm not mistaken your name is... Dabi-san, am I right? "

For some reason, Touya felt bitter when his sister recognized him by someone else's name. But what can he do, Todoroki Touya has long been gone for Fuyumi and his other family. Right now they were strangers who happened to know each other thanks to a certain someone.

" yes... that's correct "

" Thank God, I almost thought I had the wrong person... nice to see you again Dabi-san, by the way, how is Izuku now? It's been hard to contact him lately "

" he is fine "

" Really? Nice to hear that, please tell him to contact us at least once in a while "

" Of course... "

There was awkwardness between them, Fuyumi who was confused about how to continue the conversation decided to end the conversation and return to its original purpose.

" T-then excuse me- "

" You seem quite in rush "

" Sorry? "

" um... that... if you may, may I help you "

Hearing this Fuyumi was a little confused but quickly her expression softened again. It's not good to refuse the kindness that someone offers, Fuyumi then smiled again and answered immediately.

" Of course "

Fuyuumi handed Touya some of her luggage, which he accepted with an awkward face. They then walked off led by Fuyumi.

Several minutes passed without speaking, and each of them was lost in their own thoughts. To break the silence, Fuyumi decided to strike up a conversation.

" um... Dabi-san, if I may ask where were you going? "

" That... I was just about to go home "

" I see... I heard from Izuku that you are also a Hunter, is that true? "

" that's how it is... "

" Then what's your rank? "

" A-rank "

" is that so... "

" then what about you? "

" me? "

" Where are you going with this much luggage? "

" ah! This... well, to be honest, it's the anniversary of my brother's death soon, I want to visit his grave with my younger brothers, but it seems that I can't "

" Why? "

"That's because my youngest brother has to take an exam today and my other sibling Natsu still has lectured in his college"

" is that why you go out alone "

" just say so, but now I'm not alone, all thanks to you "

Hearing this, Touya couldn't help but swallow the bitter taste in his mouth. Not only did they meet accidentally, Touya consciously helped his family, the people he had always tried to avoid.

To put it mildly, this was quite torturous for Touya. But even so, Touya remained loyal to accompanying Fuyumi until they arrived at the cemetery.

The cemetery is located on a hill not far from where the Todoroki family lives. Touya who witnessed this scene reminisced about the incident that happened to him when he first received awakening.

The heat of the scorching fire and the pungent smell of monster corpses made him sick just thinking about it. The pain he experienced at that time did not go away up until now.

Following Fuyumi who had walked ahead, they arrived at a diner that had the name Todoroki Touya engraved on it. Fuyumi then knelt in front of the meal and began to pray.

Witnessing this, Touya could only remain silent as he continued to pay attention to his own grave. There was a strange feeling when he saw his name engraved on the tombstone.

While Touya was deep in thought, Fuyumi had finished her prayer. He then opened his eyes and put down the flowers he brought to the grave.

While smiling he slowly stroked the name engraved on the tomb.

"This is my brother's grave, he died when I was little."

Hearing this Touya immediately snapped out of his reverie. He looked back at Fuyumi who had a longing expression on her face. There is

"So, may I know what kind of person your brother is?"

" How should I say... he is a good big brother, he cares about his younger siblings even though sometimes he has a scary expression. I know he is obsessed with heroes and doesn't like our father, but even so, he still wants to play with us"

Fuyumi talked about her brother in a nostalgic tone and occasionally laughed remembering the past. Hearing this made Touya's heart stab. Not only was he hiding the fact that he was still alive, but he was also pretending to be someone else.

"Then do you miss your brother?"

"Of course I miss him..."

"is that so, if there's any chance that your brother was still alive what would you do?"

Fuyumi paused for a moment, she did have a small hope that her brother was still alive and his family wasn't in a mess like now. If his brother Touya was still alive, maybe his childhood dream where the whole family could have dinner together could come true.

But all of that is impossible, not with the atmosphere at home after their mother was hospitalized.

" you ask a strange question don't you? "

" just say that I'm a curious person "

" Well, if that happens then I might cry tears of joy and we can have dinner together like a family "

" ... "

Instead of answering Touya fell silent, he couldn't bring himself to answer. However, his hands clenched tight enough, showing his determination that had dictated a decision that might change his life.
