There was a moment of silence after Iida spoke. Everyone in the room felt awkward about the silence until Manual decided to end their visit.

" Since you two might need rest, I think it's time for us to go. "

" You're right, let's go kid "

Seeing that the people visiting him were about to leave, Iida looked surprised and was about to get up to stop them. But as if reading his mind, Izuku spoke first.

" No, I'll stay here for a moment, there's something I want to talk to Iida about. "

" Okay, come after you're finished. "

" Of course "

After confirming Grand Torino's presence and Manual moving away, Izuku once again turned his gaze to Iida.

Iida was lost in thought once again when he saw Izuku reading his thoughts and quickly returned to reality when their eyes met.

" So, Iida-kun, what do you want to talk about? "

" Well, that... "

Seeing that Iida was still hesitant, Izuku took one of the stools and sat near him. He once again looked at Iida but this time with a gentler gaze.

" You seem to have a lot of worries, you can tell me if you want. I know we may be strangers, but someone I know once told me that you don't need to keep what's inside for too long, sometimes you need to let out your emotions at least once. "

Hearing Izuku's words, Iida was once again lost in thought. He felt that what Izuku said was true. But still expressing your feelings is the most difficult thing. Even if he wanted to talk about it the words still wouldn't come out.

Izuku noticed Iida's inner turmoil and decided to push him once again.

" Turbo Hero, Ingenium, he's your older brother, isn't he? "

Iida's eyes immediately widened at Izuku's sudden statement. He looked at Izuku with suspicious eyes. Suspecting his reaction would be like this Izuku continued to speak.

" I saw the news, it is said that the turbo hero Ingenium was seriously injured when facing the hero killer and suffered nerve damage. And I'm sure the reason you are in Hosu Cit must be chasing the hero killer for revenge, right? "

Once again Iida's eyes widened at Izuku's words which seemed to read his mind. But he then quickly looked away, hiding his disappointment and embarrassment. He even bit his lip until a red spot could be seen there.

" Seeing your response, it seems I was right. You know, seeing you like this reminds me of my past. "

Iida was silent for a moment as if he didn't understand what Izuku said. His mixed feelings had also disappeared, replaced by confusion at Izuku's sudden words, and looked at his with a confused expression.

Izuku didn't pay attention to the change in his expression and was silent for a moment reminiscing about his memories of seeing Ichirou lying weak and helpless on the bed. Izuku currently also has the same facial expression that Iida has, a bitter expression due to his incompetence.

" I also almost lost someone precious to me. A terrible incident occurred during a mission. Most of my colleagues were seriously injured and the team leader had to lose his ability to walk because he was protecting his members."

Hearing Izuku's words, Iida's eyes suddenly widened in surprise. He didn't expect that the person in front of him would have a life story similar to his. Seeing Iida's surprise, Izuku just chuckled. He then continued his story.

" When I saw that, I was blinded by my anger and immediately slaughtered the monsters in front of me without sparing any. I was only able to relieve my anger when I killed the boss monster. "

There was a faint tremor of anger as Izuku told his story. Even though Izuku had restrained it, killing intent still leaked from him. Iida flinched when he noticed a tremor of anger that felt scarier than his own. Feeling that made his vengeful anger feel like a child's anger. Apart from that, Iida still faithfully listens to Izuku's stories.

" I thought that by making him my subordinate, I could make him work as a slave. But after several fights together, he became a reliable partner. "

His anger slowly subsided as he recalled the various battles he experienced with Tusk and the Orgs in his army.

" Yeah, at that time, I was really messed up. I kept blaming myself for not being there and coming late. But thanks to someone I managed to get up from my slump and move on. Thanks to her I was able to find a cure for my paralyzed colleague. "

Izuku flashes back to his memories where he madly slaughters monsters in the demon's castle to get medicine to cure Ichirou. He didn't even pay attention to Iida who was shocked to hear that there was a medicine for paralyzed patients.

" I-Is it true that there is medicine for paralyzed patients?!... "

Ignoring the pain, Iida immediately jumped out of bed and immediately appeared in front of Izuku. Seeing his overreacting, Izuku quickly calmed him down before he caused his injuries to get worse.

" Before that, please calm down. "

Even though Izuku told him to calm down, his heart still couldn't stop beating fast. A small hope began to grow in his chest when he heard that there was a cure for his brother.

" Yes, that medicine does exist. "

" Then how to get it? "

Iida, who seemed impatient, urged Izuku to answer immediately. Seeing his hasty attitude Izuku decided to tease him a little, as well as to lighten his mood.

" It's not easy to get it, even for me. You must go through thousands of dungeon monsters to get just the ingredients. "

Hearing that he had to fight many monsters, the hope that had appeared in his eyes dimmed instantly. However, it didn't take long for it to be replaced by a new, stronger determination.

" I see, then is there a way I can become a Hunter? "

From the tone that Iida used, he sounded very serious, even the look in his eyes looked like someone ready to jump into the flames if he needed to. Seeing his overly serious reaction, Izuku couldn't help but laugh. He meant it as a joke, but unexpectedly Iida took it seriously.

Iida was also confused by Izuku who suddenly laughed. He even thought that Izuku might underestimate his determination to save his brother.

" w-what's so funny, I'm serious about this "

" Ah, I'm sorry, I couldn't help it. There's no need for you to endanger yourself by jumping into a group of monsters, besides, I'm sure you've never killed before, right? "

Iida was once again gloomy after hearing Izuku's words. His shoulders drooped again and his head bowed again.

" then what should I do? "

" Don't worry, I have the medicine. "

" What!? "

Iida, who had been gloomy, once again got up. He once again looked at Izuku with hope once again shining in his eyes. Izuku smiled briefly at the drastic change in his reaction.

" like I said I have the cure "

" Is that true? "

Instead of answering, Izuku's hand reached out into the empty air and the next moment in his hand appeared a small bottle with a red liquid inside.

Iida looked at the bottle with a suspicious red liquid in Izuku's hand with narrowed eyes. What Izuku took out looked like an in-game item. He then looked at Izuku as if asking for an explanation.

" You must be wondering whether the suspicious red liquid is the medicine, and the answer is yes. Medicine that is effective enough to cure various diseases. I know my words sound like nonsense, but believe me, there are a lot of things that don't make sense in the world the Hunters "

" I... I understand, but is it okay to give something? "

" It's okay, Shooto-kun's friend is my friend too. I will leave this medicine here, if you still don't believe me you can throw it away or sell it. "

After saying that, Izuku immediately got up from his seat and prepared to leave.

" Okay, now that our conversation is over, I should go. "

" Please wait a moment "

" What is it? "

" That... thank you for saving me, and also for the medicine. "

" You're welcome "

Izuku then left Iida without looking back. In front of the door, there was Shoto who was waiting until their conversation was finished. He also came out with Grand Torino and Manual, because he felt that the conversation between Izuku and Iida might be serious.

" Did you wait long, Shoto-kun? "

" Not really, I just finished talking with my sister about my situation. "

" I see, Fuyumi-san must be worried "

" That's it, she kept asking how I was and whether I was injured somewhere. "

" yeah, that sounds like Fuyumi-san "

"Is your conversation finished?"

"Yeah, you can come in, it looks like Iida-kun has also finished organizing his thoughts, I also have to go, see you later. "

" Sure, see you later "

Shoto remained where he was watching Izuku's back slowly disappear into the crowd, and after putting his cell phone in his pocket he walked into the room.

There he could see Iida who was looking at the small bottle in his hand with a complicated look. He then looked up to see Shoto walking in after closing the door to the room. Shoto, who was curious about the bottle in Iida's hand, then asked him.

" What is that? "

" Izuku-san gave it to me "

" Izuku? I see "

Shoto's interest stopped there and he sat back on his bed while thinking about something else. In the middle of his reverie, Iida's voice suddenly called him, turning his attention back to him.

" Hey, Todoroki-kun, what kind of person is Izuku-san? "

" Izuku? Well, as far as I know him, he may be a joker, but he's a trustworthy person. I'm sure he had a good reason when he gave you that thing. "

" is that so... "

" Why? Is something bothering you? "

" No, it's just... I don't know. "

Silence once again enveloped them. While Shoto was busy with his thoughts, Iida continued to look at the glass bottle in his hand while remembering Izuku's words.

If what Izuku said was true, then what he had in his hands right now was a very valuable medicine. Even though it was hard to believe, Shoto had said that Izuku was a man who could be trusted, besides that he had seen how great he was during their match that day.

After completing various complicated thoughts, Iida finally made a decision. Following this determination, Iida gripped the glass bottle in his hand tighter as if it were the most valuable object in the world. He had decided to trust Izuku. Whatever happens to his brother, he must be prepared to bear the risk.

Izuku walked through the hallway to the front door where Grand Torino and Manual were waiting for him. When he came out he immediately found Grand Torino who was chatting with one of the police officers who looked familiar to him.

Izuku then walked over to them, and as he approached, he immediately recognized the policemen's identities and immediately greeted them.

" Grand Torino-san "

" Oh kid, are you finished? "

" Yes "

After greeting the Grand Torino, he then faced the police next to him.

" It's been a long time, Tsukauchi-san "

" It's been a long time Izuku-kun, how are you? "

" I'm fine, what are you doing here Tsukauchi-san? "

" Yeah, you must have guessed it. "

" Is it because of this incident? "

"that's how it is"

" But why did you come down here yourself? Isn't the Hosu police enough to handle that problem? "

" You're right, but it just so happens that the case I'm handling is also related to the criminal involved this time. "

" That makes sense "

" And you, why did you get involved with this incident and even kill the villain? Didn't I remind you to stay away from trouble? "

" well, let's just say one problem leads to another problem "

Seeing Izuku easily make excuses while smiling made Tsukauchi just sigh. However, there was a glimpse of relief in his chest when he saw that the child who looked gloomy at that time could now smile and even crack jokes, even though it was out of place.

" Well, whatever it is, I'll hear about it later, and besides that, I want to make a formal request to you as the vice guild master. "

Hearing the word formal request, the atmosphere between the two turned serious. The playful smile was gone from Izuku's face as he looked at Tsukauchi straight in the eyes.

" formal request? "

" Yes, as a representative of the police, I would like to ask for cooperation with the Dawn guild to uncover the mystery behind the creation of the Nomu Chimera. "
