Last chapter showed that Makoto Tsukauchi is being "pressed to a corner" when told not to get involved in cases that involves Phantoms as this would be the NSA-Section Zero's jurisdiction, while it introduced a character from Kamen Rider Wizard as a "wild card" in this fic, so here another My Hero Academia character will be introduced, who will be pivotal for this arc just as another Phantom villain will appear to find a victim to have him/her submit to despair to sire a new Phantom.
Well then, read on and enjoy!
The man, identified as Masanori Kizaki, greeted her and Makoto greeted in reply, though she appeared to be a bit wary, as she wondered if the NSA-Section Zero is aware of what happened several days ago, and wondered if this meeting has anything to do with Izuku and wondered if they heard about the "ring-bearing Wizard". Kizaki glances at Makoto from head to toe, until glancing at the "Engage Ring" she is wearing, and there he went straight to the point and began interrogating her.
"Okay...listen up, Tsukauchi...I will get straight to the point..."
"Which is..."
"I am aware of what has happened recently..."
"Eh...?"
"You and your team were attacked by Phantoms..."
"Yes...that is correct..."
"...and you made contact with a young man claiming to be a wizard...do you know about his identity...?"
"Um..."
Kizaki made his intentions known to her that he has received reports about the Phantom and about a young man who claims to be a "Wizard", in which he asked her if she has any clues to his identity, and he expected her answer. Yoshino thought about it, and hesitantly replied that she only recalled the armored Wizard saving her life twice and claimed she has no idea about the Wizard's alter-ego.
"Sorry..."
"I see..."
Kizaki stared in an emotionless manner, as he can tell that she is lying, though he did nothing and let it slide for now, and there he gives Makoto and the Musutafu Police Department strict orders in which the NSA will deal with the present situation that involves Phantoms, and that the NSA will keep the Phantoms' existence a secret from the public as a means to protect the Japanese citizens.
"Regardless...I came here to give you and your department a DIRECT ORDER..."
"Which is...?"
"We will handle the Phantom cases...and you will not let the public know about this..."
"What? Are you serious?!"
"Yes."
"That's absurd!"
Makoto verbally disapproved it though the police chief restrains her and tells her to comply, but she rebutted, stating that as a member of the police force it is her duty to protect the public, yet Kizaki was unmoved and nevertheless told her that this is a direct order and it cannot be disobeyed, and the police chief accepted the offer without question, much to her chagrin.

After giving Makoto and the police chief his direct orders, Kizaki gave his farewell as he leaves the police chief's room and heads out of the Musutafu Police Department amid the wary looks of other policemen and officials, which Kizaki ignored them as he heads for the car that is parked outside where his assistant is waiting for him. After boarding, the car left while the two got in to a discussion.
"So, Mr. Kizaki...how did it go...?"
"Quite well..."
"Surprised there was no "resistance" when you gave THAT order..."
"There is one..."
"Really...?"
"Yes... Makoto Tsukauchi...I'm sure she is lying when I asked her about the so-called "Wizard"..."
"What's the next step...?"
"Here is my order...so make sure you follow them..."
Kizaki tells his assistant to have some men posted at the Musutafu Police Department and keep an eye on Makoto, as he suspect that she does know something about the "ring-bearing Wizard" and he intends to get information and to know more him as he believes that the Wizard is more than what he appeared be, which the assistant nodded as he picks up his cellphone and contacted his men to relay the orders that Kizaki told him.

Ch. 11: Atarashi Geto
A few minutes later, after Kizaki left, the police chief and Makoto got into a heated argument over the "direct order" that Kizaki and the NSA-Section Zero gave to the police department, and she couldn't accept this yet the police chief argued that even he cannot defy a direct order and tells her to follow it without question, much to her disappointment and chagrin as she would feel helpless and useless.
"ARE YOU SAYING THAT WE SHOULD ACCEPT THAT ORDER WITHOUT QUESTION?!"
"Watch your tone, Tsukauchi...and yes...an order is an order...no questions asked!"
"But...I can't just accept that!"
"The NSA said that they'll deal with that kind of situation...!"
"But...what if I encounter one and attacks an innocent? You want me to ignore that particular scenario? Play a blind eye and deaf ears?"
"If you have to you must!"
"I won't accept this!"
"Just follow orders and obey it!"
Left with no choice as further argument might result to her being demoted, Makoto reluctantly accepted the order and left the police chief's room, which he sighed in relief while she was mentally seething at how things turned out to be, feeling that the police chief has "lost his spine" and obeyed Kizaki like a dog while in spite of what she and her colleagues went through after her first encounter with Minotaur Phantom.
-x-
An hour later, at the officers' lounge, Makoto is sitting on a chair, upset at the turn of events which undermined her job as a detective as she refused to let NSA-Section Zero have their way with the police department while letting the Phantoms rampage and claim a victim, since this isn't what her father thought her before his untimely passing.
"This sucks...I'm a detective...a police officer...my job is to protect people...and yet the NSA wants me out of that particular case...? Bullshit!"
After sipping her coffee, she glances at the "Engage Ring" on her right hand again and recalled how Izuku saved her twice from before, and recalled the moments where she first met him up to the point when she fell in to despair and gave her hope as he extinguished her "inner Phantom".
- The scene she recalled shows that the two Digimons, Imp and Minotaur are trying to shake Makoto in terror so she would fall in to despair, but she held on as she tries to fight back, but to no avail, and as Imp is about to do something to her, until Izuku shows up and transforms into Wizard and fought the two, which resulted in the deletion of Imp and Minotaur retreating.
- The other scene she recalled shows how Minotaur had her fall in to despair and Izuku transforms into Wizard and fought and defeat Minotaur before putting the "Engage Ring" on her hand and entered her "underworld" to extinguish her "inner Phantom".
This rekindles her resolve to find Izuku and she decided to go out and find him. as she leaves the police station, she failed to noticed that two men in black businessman attires slowly began to follow her, who turn out to be men from the NSA-Section Zero, where Kizaki told them to monitor Makoto's every move.
"This is Agent A calling to Kizaki...Detective Tsukauchi is on the move..."
"Good...follow her..."
"Anything else...?"
"Use you hidden cam to record her movements...and any conversations she have with anyone..."
"Yes, sir..."
"And don't let her notice you..."
"Yes, sir..."
"Good."
After about 20 minutes, Makoto is in downtown and as she tries to figure out where to get a clue, she notices Wajima walking, recognizing him as the one who accompanied Izuku and she secretly follows the adult man, not knowing that Makoto herself is being followed and the "tagging" is now underway, which gives Kizaki the chance to find out more about the Wizard's identity.

Elsewhere in Musutafu, the scene shifts to a rooftop of a skyscraper where Medusa Phantom (in her human guise) and Phoenix Phantom (in his human guise), are looking down at the streets, hoping to find a new target in hopes of making their would-be victim fall in to despair and turn him/her into a Phantoms, and while Phoenix is rather lazing around though he is looking down at several humans crossing the streets, Medusa uses her unique ability to scan every human she could find and see, and there she was able to discern a prospect when glancing at a group of people convening at a nearby park, and smirked cruelly as she finally found one.
"Looks like I found one..."
"Really...? Where? Which one? And which place?"
By then, Medusa jumps down from the rooftop and landed on the next floor below, with Phoenix following and the two assumed their Phantom forms, and there she called out someone, and there the figure appeared from a corner, revealed to be another Phantom, greeting the two as he is ready to serve them all in the name of the Wiseman, and his "noble cause" to sire more and more phantoms from humans.
"Come forth, Hellhound!"
"Yes, mistress..."
"I have an order for you...Look down...and you can see the target. Make the him fall in to despair...so he can give rise to a Phantom...so that Wiseman will once again hold the Sabbat."
"Yes...I shall do it...in the name of Wiseman, Mistress Medusa."
"Good...when you succeed...You'll make Medusa and me very happy..."
"I will do as you command me to, Master Phoenix..."
"That's good to hear...now get going...we're counting on you!"
"I shall depart at once..."
"Yeah...bye-bye..."
The phantom is identified as "Hellhound", and there he is given instructions by Medusa on whom he would target and have the "Digi-Gate" fall in to despair and have him/her sire a new Phantom, which Hellhound accepted the order without question and jumped from the building as he takes his leave to begin his work, just as the two Phantom assumed their human guises and casually left the scene seeing that things would go their way.
"And off he goes...sure wish it was me I'd take that job..."
"You heard Wiseman's orders, ..."
"Yeah, yeah...you sure sound like a disciplinarian..."
"Be patient...I'm sure Wiseman has something in store for you..."
"I hope so..."
"Let's go..."
"I'm coming...where are we going...?"
"Just follow me..."

Much later, the scene shifts to a park, and when the scene zooms in, it shows that the various people are convening at a certain spot and it reveals that a magic show is in progress, where a magician (mostly a stage magician that you can usually seen in birthday parties) is performing "magic tricks" and that the audience, mostly parents and children, are applauding him for his "entertaining" feats.
"Wow!"
"Great magic!"
"A rabbit coming out of the hat!"
"A bird coming out of his pocket!"
"We want more magic!"
"Make a chocolate coming out of your pants!"
"We want more magic tricks!"
"Yeah! More magic!"
"I want a guinea pig!"
"I want a pet snake!"
"Make some gold coins!"
"Yeah! More magic tricks!"
The magician accepted the applause and then proclaims that he is going to perform his next act, but then asks something from the audience which seemed to arouse their curiosities and soon the children began raising their hands in eagerness which made the show more interesting, amid the lively reactions from the crowd, attracting more passerby as they noticed the commotion and soon more of them are joining the other people in watching the magic show.
"Now I will perform my next magic trick!"
"Yeah!"
"More magic!"
"I wanna see more magic!"
"Okay...but I would like a volunteer from one of you audiences! Who wants to volunteer for my next trick?"
"Me!"
"I wanna try it!"
"No, pick me!"
"Me do it!"
"I'm raising my hand!"
"Choose me! I want to see a real magic!"
"Please pick me instead!"
"No, me!"
"Take me!"
"Me, me, me!"
After seeing several hands raised, the magician saw one of the hands raised higher and chose that person from the audience to have him came forward, and there the volunteer is shown, who turn out that he was standing on a chair which resulted in having his hand raised higher. This person appeared to be a 14-year old boy, a very short teenage boy with a large, round head, and rather puffy cheeks.
His nose is small, stubby and points slightly upwards, and he has an unusually distinguishable philtrum, oval-shaped eyes with large, black pupils, and notably thin eyebrows. He has a head of very short dark purple hair with four large ball-shaped clumps resembling a mohawk.
This boy is identified as Minoru Mineta, and there the magician tells Mineta what he is going to do which the young boy eagerly accepted the instructions without question.
"You...tell me your name..."
"My name is Mineta!"
"Mineta, eh? Want to see real magic up close?"
"Yes, I love to!"
"Then follow my instructions..."
"Sure!"
"Now then...here's what you do..."
"Okay!"
A minute later, Mineta began acting as the magician's "assistant" and there various magic tricks are performed, which include birds coming out from his body and flowers "spurting out" among other feats, and the show became more of a success, and soon the show wrapped up, and while Mineta is thanking the magician for everything, the other children were asking for autographs which the magician tells them to form a line, as Mineta is asking him something.
"Mr. magician...?"
"Yes...?"
"Thanks for the show..."
"Sure...glad you liked it..."
"Can I ask for a request...?"
"Yes...?"
"Can you teach me magic...?"
"Seriously...?"
"Yes...seriously..."
The magician is surprised to hear that Mineta is asking if he would become the magician's apprentice, seeing that the younger boy is interested in learning magic, and is considering accepting the offer, and asked him if he would be willing to be patient enough as learning magic won't be easy, and when Mineta stated that he will be patient, the magician smiled, and as he is about to give his reply, something unexpected happened.
"UUUURRKKKHHHH!"
"Huh? Mr. Magician...?"
All of the sudden, the magician's body went ablaze and he got burned to death, which shocked and frightened the children, and seconds later the reason for this is shown, as Hellhound appeared, his hand wielding a fireball and it turns out that he is the one who set the magician on fire that killed him and now he is glancing at the people in front of him, Mineta included, and now the Phantom is about to advance as he sees where the Gate is, intending to make the target fall in to despair.
To Be Continued...
Hope you like this chapter. Another My Hero Academia character "introduced", and this one is Minoru Mineta.
Apart from a brief flashback scene, Izuku is seemingly absent, but he will show up in the next chapter, though right now this chapter focuses heavily on both Mineta and the introduction of the Phantom villain for this fic, who is based on the mythical creature, Hellhound.
Preview:
Midoriya shows up and faces the Phantom, but Mineta witnesses it and became..."interested" in him. To sum it up...it'll be an all-out "magical action" scene.
See you in eight weeks…
