E-Rank Dungeon, Kobold Camp
Galewind Agency, Musutafu, Japan
'Remember your lesson, Izuku. It's all in technique and precision!' Izuku thought as he blocks an incoming sword slash from a kobold, before kicking it away. He was surprised at how much power he packed as it causes his footprint to caved in the kobold's gut.
Another kobold tries to stabs and Izuku barely able to parry it away, and he stabs the monster's throat, causing the blood to sprays on him. Izuku looks away as the blood almost touch his face before seeing another kobold already behind him.
Izuku, in panic, toss the one he stabs at the kobold before he felt a sharp pain on his back. He turn to saw the kobold he kick away had just hurt him.
[Notice: You received damage! -16HP!]
Izuku grits his teeth as the kobold went for a charging stab, but Izuku sidesteps to dodge the attack and pierced it muzzle before rips the short sword off its jaws.
[Notice: You have defeated an Iron-Clawed Kobold]
[You leveled up!]
The kobold that got hit by its pack's corpse swings its sword. Izuku instinctively try to block it, but instead of using his sword, he uses his wrist.
[Notice: You received damage! -9 HP]
[Notice: You have defeated an Iron-Clawed Kobold!]
[You leveled up!]
Izuku winced but feeling that the wound wasn't as bad as earlier because of level up. Izuku takes the chance to kill the enemy by decapitating the enemy before it could do anything.
[Notice: You have defeated an Iron-Clawed Kobold!]
[You leveled up!]
Izuku grunts in pain as he looks at the slash wound on his wrist before cutting off the pieces of his jacket and wrapped around his wrists.
"I'm glad that I can save my Status Recovery once per two days." Izuku mutter before looking at his windows.
[Unclaimed Reward: Status Recovery (x2)]
"I need to save them in an emergency. These wounds are nothing." Izuku said before looking at the dead Kobold. He saw the familiar glows once more and touches it.
[Congratulations: You obtained Leather Chestplate! x2]
[Congratulations: You obtained Leather Wristguard!]
[Congratulations: You obtained Fur Cape!]
[Congratulations! You obtained Iron Claws! (x3)]
Izuku felt his veins popped as he looks at the notification. Where is the sword!?! Give this boy a new sword!!
"Is the drop rate really that low?" Izuku mutter before he looks at the wristguard.
[Leather Wristguard]
[Rank: E]
[Physical Damage Reduction: 1%]
[Strength: 1]
[Fusion available: 1]
"So, lower my strength but in exchange for physical damage reduction." Izuku mutters before looking at the available fusion.
[Fusion Available: ]
[Barbarian Gauntlet (Rank D): Physical Damage Reduction: 2%, Strength: 4, Agility: 2]
[Material Required: Fingerless Gloves (x1), Leather Wristguard (1), Fur Coat (1)]
" Fur Coat? Not Fur Cape!?" Izuku looks like he has been bamboozled. The kobold has dropped fur capes but the fusion requires fur coat! "Where the fuck should I even get a fur coat!?" Izuku yelled out in anger before noticing more and more kobolds appearing. "...oh, yes. It's Grindin' Time!"
With that, Izuku toss all of his rational thoughts and important lessons out of his head and charges towards the pack of kobolds.
Bakugou Household
Musutafu, Japan
"Damn it!! *Cough!*" Bakugou coughs violently as he slams the book into the wall. "Damn that villain! *Cough! Cough!* Not only has he fucking capture me!! *Cough!!* He ruins my fucking throat as well!!! *Cough!!!* Stupid heroes!! *Cough!!* A bunch of pussies!!! *Cough!! Cough!! Cough!!!*"
He stomps on the floor as he drinks some water, before accidentally spits some of it out as he cough violently once more. He curses and toss his bottle into the wall out of anger, spilling the water around the room.
"Damn them!!" Bakugou growls before he starts coughing again.
"What's going on!?" Bakugou stiffens before turning to see his mother glares at him.
"Nothing!" Bakugou yelled before coughing again.
"Didn't I told you to stop yelling or you only made it worse!?" Mitsuki express her disbelief as Bakugou growls.
"I don't have to listen to you, old hag!" Bakugou growls.
"Oh, sure. I'll just ignore your coughing till you can't say a word." Mitsuki sarcastically said as Bakugou growls but say nothing. "Get some rest, brat."
"I'm going to train!" Bakugou gets up but was stopped by Mitsuki placing her hands on Bakugou's chest.
"No. You will rest." Mitsuki said as Bakugou growls. "And you're still grounded."
"Grounded!!?! All because of Deku!?!?" Bakugou roared before he coughs again.
"Call him by his name or just call him 'Midoriya'! I rather not hear you call him in that disgusting nickname!" Bakugou tch'ed and look away. "Don't 'tch'ed' me! I mean it!"
"Whatever." Mitsuki stares at her son with sad expression, wondering how did the two kids who wanted to be heroes together end up like this.
"What happen to you two? You two used to be close." Bakugou stares at his mother for a while before scoffed and look away. His next words made Mitsuki realize how big her mistake was for not making sure if Bakugou is surrounded by a positive influence.
"He's a quirkless loser. There's no way I'll ever befriends someone like that."
Back with Izuku
"Hah...hah...Rewards Window..." Izuku can be seen sitting on a pile of corpses while muttering as he pressed the button on the screen, specifically at [Status Recovery]. He felt his fatigue disappear and his wounds healed.
"Can't believe I leveled so much..." Izuku said with a grin before he pulls something out of his inventory. "I finally get it..."

"This is a huge upgrade." Izuku said with a grin before he tries to swing his sword with the similar technique he did when watching the video. Izuku felt it was wrong due to the difference in length before he adjust it.
He made sure the sword moves swiftly, but precise. Light but powerful. He practice a bit to made sure the movement is steady. It took him a while but he finally gain a notification.
[Congratulations! Your actions has earned you a new skill!]

[Passive: If using a sword, the damage inflicted to your enemy will increases by 15%]
[Notice: Basic Short Sword Technique is a branch skill of Basic Sword Technique. Would you like to fuse both skills into one?]
[Y/N]
Izuku blinked at the screen. He didn't expect the system actually counts branch skill. He shrugged before pressing 'Y'.
[Congratulations! Basic Sword Technique gains 10% Extra EXP]
"Wow..." Izuku deadpanned as he stare at the screen. He actually was expecting more, but alas, he can't complain. He then checks his equipment before noticing a '!' icon on the fur capes. He raises his eyebrow before pressing the icon.
[Notice: Dismantling items are now possible. Would you like to dismantle [Fur Cape]?]
[Y/N]
"Dismantle...? No...don't tell me..." Izuku pressed [Y] and the cape in his inventory glowed. Izuku pulled one out of the inventory and saw a tattered fur coat. He checks it and he felt his eyes twitch in annoyance.
[Fur Coat]

[Worth: 10 Golds]
"It was this shit the whole time!?" Izuku growls and tightly grips the coat. He went to the fusion options and pressed yes as the coat disappear as Izuku's wrist glowed before a fur gauntlet replaced his gloves. It slowly disappear in thin air.
"Finally!" Izuku grinned before he gain a notice.
[Set: Barbarian]
[Set Bonus Effect 1(3/5): Health increasedby 5]
[Set Bonus Effect 2(5/5): Physical Damage Reduction 5%]
"Cool!" Izuku said excitedly before getting up. "Alright! Time to grind more!"
Izuku toss his now broken short sword away and changes it with his newly acquired Silver Fang Blade. He continues to dive deeper into the dungeon before he notices several short humanoid monster with green skin, pointy ears, long fangs, and ugly ass mohawk, wearing nothing but leather loincloth.
[Ferocious Goblin]
"Whoever named this truly lacks creativity." Izuku deadpanned before he saw one of the goblin charges at him. Izuku stabs its gut with precision before he swings his sword, tossing its body away. The goblins saw their ally got tossed casually, starts to shake in fear. Izuku points his blade as he takes a stance.
"Let's see how far can I go." As Izuku said this, the goblins roared and starts blindlessly charging at Izuku. Said boy simply cuts each one of their heads off and thanks to increased senses and agility, he manages to dodge all of the goblin's attack and kills them with ease. It's no longer a fair battle between human and monster. It's a massacre.
[Notice: You leveled up!]
[Notice: You leveled up!]
[Notice: You leveled up!]
[Notice: You leveled up!]
Izuku saw the multiple screens popping in front of his eyes. To think killing a group of goblins would increases his level by 4. He turns around and saw the glowing red eyes in the shadow. Izuku get rid off the blood in his blade and faces the glowing eyes.
"Come at me, monsters."
