Hello all and Happy Halloween!

So a could of announcements going forward! First off, November 22 is the one-year anniversary of this story! :O

Holy smokes!

I just want to say beforehand that it's because of everyone reading his that has pushed me forward to be nearly writing a chapter per week. So thank you for the continued support!

However, with the upcoming Endwalker expansion, as well as my day job, after the 19th (I preordered muahahaha) Chapters may be coming out slower than usual, I apologize about this, but I do wish to see how the story goes and possibly incorporate it into mine. AS WELL, as bringing in the Reaper and Sage classes.

Yea... the media coverage that came out recently gave me some ideas, and going through their job stories will help flesh out how both classes will affect our green bean of light. As well as how they will appear or are unlocked. I can tell you right now, Shigaraki will unlock Reaper... that is a given, and Sage has already been decided, and yes, it is someone to join the poly.

With that being said, here are the current reviews left from the last chapter:

Silvanium: We shall have to wait and see, but don't worry... it won't be long :3

fallendemon248: The primals will be acting differently than they do in FFXIV, considering they aren't "summoned" normally through crystals but by use of dead bodies (sound familiar?) They won't have the power to bend the wills of people considering they literally drain the aether out of them to do so, People on earth, have little to no aether for them to do that. But, it doesn't mean they ain't strong though. ;)

Deadly Depression: Melissa won't be in the poly, at some point I will do an "I-Island" arc, but as to when, it is up in the air.

Alright, time for the latest chapter! Enjoy!

Chapter 42

Pushing Beyond

Toshinori released a heavy sigh as he fumbled to fish his keys out of his dress pants. The evening had been quite long, and though he had to maintain his form for a little longer than his usual three-hour time limit, it hadn't taken that much of a toll upon his body with him excusing himself to use the bathroom and 'deflating' for a bit before 'buffing' back up and continue his mission.

And honestly, it was probably one of the best missions he had ever been on.

To say that he enjoyed his time watching over Inko and Eri was an understatement. The number one hero had an absolute ball with holding the small child up in his arms or dancing with her or her grandmother. While Toshi knew that Eri was still put off by many of the people within the private ballroom they were put into, he had to give it to the little girl to muster up her courage and go through with it.

When Izuku and Momo had finally finished what needed to be done in the main ballroom, he and Inko had a good chuckle at the way that Eri had dashed toward her 'parents' and the surprised look on the young man's face upon seeing how she was dressed up. Eri had been dolled up into a beautiful long-sleeved red dress that quite honestly looked fit for a princess, and even more surprising to Izuku was how they had done up Eri's hair to mimic that of Momo's.

During the happily little reuniting of the 'family', Toshinori looked to his left to see a slightly teared-up Inko. After offering her his handkerchief, the blonde hero quietly asked her if she was alright.

"It's just… I wish Hisashi was here right now to see our baby boy growing up."

It pained him to admit, but hearing Inko speak about her past husband did hurt at times. Though, he could not fault her, given how heroic the man was despite not becoming a pro hero himself. From the pictures and stories she had shared during their meetups for tea, Toshinori could see where Izuku got his heroic spirit from, and the boy's ever curly hair and the difficulty it took to cut it, something the boy also shared with deceased father.

Still, Toshinori would admit he may have been a tad jealous of Hisashi, considering the woman that he was currently infatuated with was still grieving over him. But, the pro hero could not fault her, especially given how long it took for himself to move past the death of Nana.

Gods, how he wished he could speak with her again and ask for advice.

Finally pulling out his house keys, Toshinori turned the knob and flicked on the light, tossing his dress jacket onto a nearby chair, and began to head towards the kitchen to fix himself a small meal before bed, as the food at the event would have been difficult to digest with his lack of a stomach.

As he passed by his living room, a voice from within the darkness situated on a chair called out to him that sent the number one hero reeling and buffed up at the stern tone of voice, "Good evening, Toshinori."

All Might blinked for a moment, deflating back down and coughing slightly, surprised to see this person before him after so many years apart.

Granted, it didn't help that the last time they talked face to face was after his fateful battle against All for One and the argument that happened afterward, something he regretted ever since then. But to see the man sitting down in one of his recliners after so many years caused the skeletal man to slowly smile.

"Mirai, it's been so long since we last saw one another… what are you doing here?"

The now identified man leaned forward, revealing the stern look upon his face as he looked up towards his former mentor as well as his favorite pro hero. His glasses were shining from the angle of the light from the lit hallway, but his eyes bore deep into Toshinori's bright baby blue.

What said next was far from what Toshinori would expect to hear from his former sidekick's lips.

"I realize you have been busy with teaching and searching for a successor for One for All at UA, but I have found you the perfect candidate."

Izuku fidgeted in his seat within Nezu's office, feeling the rather cold stare coming from the pro hero, Sir Nighteye. Honestly, after everything that happened over the weekend, this felt like a total one-eighty compared to the previously mentioned events.

The "engagement" party was a truly unique experience. The announcement and being given a suit jacket as a "welcome to the family" gift with the Yaoyorozu's crest made the "lie" more real in Izuku's opinion. While he was able to not stutter or be his awkward self for most of the night, it was clear that he had reached his limit within an hour or so. Thankfully, they were to be excused so they could spend the rest of the night with his mother and Eri, and to see the look on his face of seeing how much of a princess his daughter had looked, as well as poke some fun at Momo for having Eri's hair styled similar to hers.

All in all, it was a fantastic night.

The only setback was when they returned to the dorms. As Izuku went to put Eri to bed, Momo had opened her room to find Mina, Kyoka, and Tsuyu, all with stern-looking expressions on most of their faces (Tsuyu was croaking deep and threateningly) as Momo turned a deathly pale at the cold air in the room.

As if sensing danger and, like the person he is, Izuku had rushed towards Momo's room and soon stopped dead in his tracks as he saw the frowns of his other girlfriends. Their expressions soon changed when they saw the still "cleaned up" Izuku standing before them, all with blushes and doing their best to stay angry, but that didn't last long as both Izuku and Momo explained the situation.

Seeing the reasoning behind the engagement announcement, as well as an assurance by Izuku that he would properly propose to them when the time came. Granted, that had everyone get flustered at the mere thought of that scenario, and as well as everyone promising to do the same to one another, considering this was a polyamorous relationship and all.

Momo had broken out of her flustered state of mind to ask how the girls knew about the engagement in the first place when there was no media coverage. Kyoka pulled out her phone and brought up an image that was sent to her earlier that evening, one that showed off a smiling 'Princess Eri' and Inko standing under a banner where the lettering clearly had their names on it, plus it was taken at such a height that the words "engagement" could be made out, despite being partially cutting off the top part of the word.

Both Momo and Izuku slapped their foreheads to realize who took the said picture and didn't even realize what was in the shot. After some laughter at the expense of All Might's blunder, as well as talking about how cute Eri was, Izuku had left the room to head back to his own but also gave each girl soft kisses before doing so.

He couldn't help but catch from the corner of his eye the sight of Momo and Kyoka doing the same, while Mina gave a big hug to Tsuyu before she gave the others a soft kiss goodnight.

The next day, his plans with Mina had been altered sadly, as she was initially going to go to the beach with him and spend the day there relaxing. However, she suggested watching movies up in her room and seemed to be really excited about it, saying she wanted to show Izuku her favorite movie franchise.

Mina had explained it was a pre-quirk era movie series with some significant visual effects, some of which could compete with the present-day movies, believe it or not. What puzzled Izuku is that Mina hadn't told him what the series was about, but he trusted her to not pick something too over the top, as well as inform him if it would freak him out, right?

After the second movie, Izuku made sure never to have Mina suggest any more films for the class movie nights (at least with Eri around).

If there was one saving grace throughout the movie-a-thon that Mina had suggested to be their date, it was the fact that Mina had taken her seat in between his legs, her back resting on his chest while his strong arms were wrapped around her midsection. Anytime a scene was a little too much for him, Izuku would bury his face into the mess of pink curls that was his "Alien Queen's" hair, covering his eyes but also letting the scent of her strawberry shampoo waft into his nostrils before pecking her scalp with his lips, causing the pink-skinned woman to giggle and sigh happily, her arms resting on top of his.

For the rest of the weekend, it was spent looking after Eri or helping out his mother around the dorms while also studying with his fellow classmates or doing some light working out, which Eri would sometimes help with by sitting on his back as he did push-ups.

However, two significant issues came up during the weekend. For one, Mineta had constantly been glaring at Izuku, his eyes bloodshot and crying blood with an acquisitional look on his face thatIzuku had no idea why the ball-headed boy was so upset about.

The other issue was when a news report came on during Friday's dinner, some breaking news in the Hosu area where the Pro Hero Ingenium had been attacked by the "Hero Killer", Stain. Everyone had grown quiet at the announcement, most notably Tenya, whose expression looked like his entire world was crashing down, only to snap out of it when his phone rang, and the cries of his mother echoed out of his phone.

Tenya wasn't seen for the rest of the weekend, not until Monday morning where Izuku, Ochako, Tsuyu, and Todoroki had come up to him before the beginning of classes to see how he was doing. The blue-haired class rep waved them off with a smile on his face, telling them he was fine and that while his brother was severely injured, he was happy that it wasn't fatal.

Izuku kept staring at his friend, seeing the fake smile that Tenya had set off some red flags in his mind, knowing the smile was fake due to having donned such a look many times in the past. As to what the boy was planning, the young warrior of light had no idea.

It was then that Izuku snapped out of his reminiscing; the first half of the day had finished, and Aizawa called for Izuku to follow him to the dean's office, which was where he currently was with himself, Sir Nighteye, All Might (who was looking like he having a minor panic attack), and Nezu. All staring at him or glaring in the case of the former sidekick to the number one hero.

"Him? You chose him to be your successor, Yagi?" Nighteye had said with a stern look in his eyes as he pointed at Izuku, causing Izuku to flinch, "He is still just a child! He has no business taking on your mantle as he is still a first-year, while the one I suggested to you is already fit and ready to take One for All." As the lanky-looking pro hero kept shouting at All Might, he had failed to notice the blazing red eyes of Aizawa behind him with the underground hero leaning against a wall.

"Now, now… don't be writing off Mr. Midoriya like that." Nezu suddenly spoke up, pouring out some red tea and offering it to Izuku, who thanked the small white creature and began to drink it to calm his nerves, failing to notice the hardened look on All Might's face as he did so, "While I had my own skepticism at first, and it was nothing against you, young man."

"N-No sir, I believe you…." Izuku stuttered out, causing the bifocal man to scoff at the nervousness of the student.

"It was more the fact that his quirk just recently came in, and we had not known what the addition of One for All would have not only on his body but also his very newly awakened quirk." Nezu continued, smiling as always, but was focused as Izuku had finished his cup.

"And I have nothing against the boy himself, and I apologize if it does sound like I am, but you just made my point. He is still playing catch up to the rest of his peers in terms of mastering his quirk, let alone taking on another one-"

"Enough."

The room grew silent as All Might suddenly stood up, the smile usually worn on his face long gone as the buff man stood before Sir Nighteye, the shadows cast upon the buff body hiding his face minus the electric blue eyes of the number one hero. Everyone was shocked at how All Might was acting now; even Aizawa's usual deadpan look was gone.

"I appreciate the fact you were only trying to look for not only my best interests but that of this country. But, while I believe that young Togata is an outstanding young man and on his way to becoming a great hero in his own right. I chose young Midoriya here because he reminded me of myself when I was his age, and I had been given One for All. He is one of the most selfless, heroic young man I have ever met… for god's sake, Mirai… he rushed in to help someone in need while a bunch of other pro heroes and I stood around doing nothing, even after thinking for years that he was quirkless and tormented by the same person he was trying to save, as well being told by me that he couldn't be a hero without a quirk."

Nighteye blinked, looking past the buffed-up Toshinori Yagi to look at the sheepish student who was blushing like mad, being praised by his mentor and favorite hero.

"Not only that, but thanks to young Midoriya here, he helped me realize that the world cannot have a second 'All Might'."

"W-What?!"

"It was after the USJ that I was given the knowledge that while I did many great heroic things, I made the public complacent with the fact that there will always be an All Might when we all know for a fact that there can't be. This country cannot have a single pillar holding it up, not again."

All Might shrunk back down to his skeletal form suddenly, still staring at his former sidekick, "It's my goal now as a teacher here at UA, to train the next generation of heroes, the next generation of All Might's. Making a foundation to support the peace created over the last thirty-odd years, and improving upon what it truly means to be a hero."

Sir Nighteye could only stare at the skeletal form of the symbol of peace, taking in everything the man had just told him before his eyes slowly shifted towards Izuku, staring at the young man who fidgeted in his seat. The former sidekick looked back up to his former mentor, the shocked expression slowly morphing back to his stern one as he sighed gently.

"There is nothing I can do to change your mind about your choice of successor, is there?"

"No, and it's already too late." Nezu had spoken up suddenly before Toshinori could, "The tea that Mr. Midoriya drank had some of Yagi's blood in it, and the process of passing on One for All to the boy had already taken place."

Everyone now looked shocked towards the dean, most notably Izuku and Sir Nighteye. Aizawa sighed heavily as he rubbed the bridge of his nose as he pushed off the wall he was leaning on, "Was that really necessary?"

"Yes," Toshinori spoke up now, his gaze now landing on Izuku, "The only way to pass on One for All is if the previous wielder willingly wishes it, and to do so is to have the new wielder consume some sort of DNA. When my master passed it onto me, she had me eat a piece of her hair."

The three other humans grimaced at that revelation, their faces going a little green as Izuku nodded his head, "Y-Yea, I can see why putting your blood into the tea would have been a better idea… N-n-no offense, All Might."

The skeletal man chuckled lightly, "None taken, my boy, and from what Nezu had explained to me is that it will take about half an hour or so for my quirk to be absorbed into your body. Thankfully, today's hero class is going to be self-training and workouts, just so that everyone can ease back into the routine."

Izuku nodded, thinking for a moment and rubbing his chin for a moment before his eyes went wide, looking back up to Toshinori and smiling the brightest smile that anyone in the room had ever seen on the boy, "C-can we do a little quirk training as well?"

While Sir Nighteye was a little puzzled at the question, the others looked on in awe, realizing why the boy had asked for such a thing. It was no secret that, despite being blessed with the power of a goddess, that all Izuku had ever wanted was a quirk, even if it was "worthless" for hero work. After fourteen long years, the quirkless boy was no longer quirkless.

Knowing how it felt to finally have a quirk of his own, Toshinori placed his hand on Izuku's shoulder, his own smile warm in nature as he spoke gently, "Of course, you can do some quirk training as well. Now, it's almost the end of lunch; you should go have a good meal before the start of class, young Midoriya."

Izuku nodded with the brightest smile on his lips, tears threatening to pour out of his eyes like waterfalls. He leaped to his feet, bowing to everyone present before dashing off towards the cafeteria, his smile still ever-present as he made his way through the hallways.

However, back in the office, Sir Nighteye had risen to his feet, a furious expression on his face as he looked towards Toshinori, "You tricked me!"

"I-"

"No, it was not Toshinori that tricked you; if you are to blame someone, then point your hatred towards me." Nezu spoke up once again, causing the Pro Hero to whirl his gaze towards the diminutive being sitting at his large desk, "We would have been here for hours arguing back and forth about if Midoriya should inherit One for All, due to the sheer stubbornness of yourself wanting to see another singular person becoming the symbol of peace, as well as Toshinori's views that there needs to be multiple to take up the mantle."

"And why the bloody hell would we need multiple All Might's? All for One is dead!" Nighteye shouted loudly, slamming his hands onto the desk and staring down the 'rodent'.

"He isn't, Mirai…." Toshinori spoke then, his gaze cold and severe as Nighteye looked back to his former mentor, "Worse yet, it seems he found new 'tools' to use against us… as well as another threat that the dean has been talking to me about, and the cause for the creature that interrupted the sports festival."

"The long and short of it is, we will need Midoriya to face that new threat, and with the power of One for All flowing through his body, there is a good chance we can prevent the inevitable from happening." Nezu said with a grim tone to his voice, causing all three men to stare at him. Aizawa raised his eyebrow in curiosity as he walked towards the dean.

"And what is this threat then, Nezu?"

The white-furred creature leaned back in his chair, his no-descript black eyes staring at all three as he brought his hands up to his lips.

"The threat of the Ascians."

"Did anyone notice Midoriya seems to have a bit of spring to his step today?" asked Kirishima as he was stretching beside some of the other guys as well as a couple of the girls, crossing one arm over his chest and pulling it closer to his body with his other one, "It's like he won a lottery or something."

"Oui, his brightness is almost blinding today," spoke Yuga, who was sitting on the ground and stretching out his arms to try and grab his toes, even with the added difficulty of his belt to suppress the adverse effects of his stomach laser. The french boy leaned back up with a heavy huff of breath and looked towards Kyoka, who was doing some stretches with the aid of Toru, "Mademoiselle Jiro, did anything happen this morning or during lunch?"

The punk rocker turned her attention away from Toru and their little discussion about music to look at the blonde boy, then turn her gaze back towards a currently running Izuku, sprinting around the track of Field Sigma while a bunch of their classmates were doing some personal exercises within the middle, "I honestly have no idea, I didn't see him until lunch was about over and since then he's been smiling like a dork since."

"Perhaps it was because of Dean Nezu?" Spoke up Momo, who had created an arm strengthening device to pull back and work her muscles, "All Might had asked to speak with him in the dean's office just before lunch, so maybe something good happened?"

"Usually, when one enters that dark place, they normally do not come out of it with such a shining light." Tokoyami had said in between his reps of sit-ups, with Dark Shadow holding down his feet.

"Perhaps it has to do with the tall guy over with All Might and Aizawa?" said Kaminari, who was also doing the same exercise as his bird-headed classmate, though it was Sero who was holding down his feet.

"That's Sir Nighteye; he used to All Might's sidekick, Kero." Tsuyu spoke up, stopping her jump rope exercises along with Mina and Shoji. The frog-like girl brought a finger up to her chin as she watched Izuku make his possibly fifth lap around, the sweat glistening off of his body, "Perhaps it had something to do with the internships we will be discussing tomorrow, and maybe he's being scouted?"

"It makes sense," spoke Shoji, standing tall beside Tsuyu and Mina, "His performance was outstanding, especially that last fight against the 'monster'."

"Wow, Izuku is so lucky! I bet he's going to ask him after today's hero class!" Mina said with glee, inwardly cheering for her boyfriend.

"It's possible, but Izuku is still a first year, and not that I doubt Izuku's abilities, but-"

"Hold on! Somethings wrong!" Kyoka interrupted Sero as her ear jacks rose up, frowning as she watched Izuku begin to slow down, breathing heavily and his hands on his knees, the sweat dripping off of his face as a few of the other students that were jogging with him stopped and looked on in worry, "Izuku's heart rate just skyrocketed!"

Before anyone could say or do anything, a blinding light shone forth from Izuku, as well as the loudest and painful shout to ever come out of him.

Izuku had been excited to try out his new quirk ever since he left the dean's office, to think that he, Izuku Midoriya, would finally have a quirk! Not only that but also the quirk of All Might to boot!

He knew he had some time to kill during the rather lax heroics class today, so Izuku figured that a few laps around Field Sigma would loosen him up before he could finally test out the power of One for all. He was joined by a couple of his classmates, Ochako and Ojiro, while Tenya had been focused on racing around the field at top speed, clearly doing some of his own training.

So time progressed, and as he was rounding out his fifth lap, both Ochako and Ojiro fell back halfway through the third lap. He was panting and sweating slightly, but as he was coming around the bend, Izuku suddenly stopped, gasping for air, and a painful agony enveloped his body.

He could barely hear the shouts from his classmates until the pain was just too much, and he began to shout bloody murder to the heavens, not yet noticing the blinding light his body was giving off as he collapsed to his knees, hacking and coughing. He opened his eyes; for some reason, the outer ridges of his vision were blurry and whited out as he suddenly coughed again.

What he saw next truly scared him.

Specks of light had been coughed up when it should have been either blood or saliva, and they were glowing brightly even as they laid on the ground. Izuku's body continued to ache in extreme pain as both his vision and hearing started to blur out more, the muffled screams and shouts growing dimmer and silent as he dug his fingers into the dirt below him, coughing up more of the specks of light.

"Midoriya."

A voice, stern and cold, echoed in his ears as he lifted his head up, wincing in pain, "F-fray?"

"We do not have much time; you have taken on too much light aether; it is corrupting you."

"C-Corrupting me?" Izuku said softly as he coughed harshly once again; more specks of light splattered against the ground as his body wrenched in pain.

"I'll explain it later; you must expel the excess amount of aether quickly."

"H-How can I do that?"

"You must break past the limits of your abilities and body. I think the red mage is the safest to do so."

Izuku blinked for a moment before gritting his teeth and pushing past the pain to focus and 'bring out' the red mage kit. The brief flash of light and Izuku could see his fingers were covered in what looked like golden clawed gloves with wrappings traveling up his forearm before disappearing into a sleeve of a dark brown with golden markings and trim etched out.

He also noticed the rapier now in his hand was more bizarre than anything he had seen before. What should have been a beautiful sword of fine craftsmanship looked to be something resembling a walking cane with a pointed tip at one end that looked almost on fire, while the hilt of the 'blade' had a rather bulbous pummel that held a rather large red jewel. What was most strange was the bright red "teardrops" that appeared above the handle, floating close to the weapon and the points angled towards it, acting as some kind of guard for his hand, though part of one of the drops had phased through his wrist and ground due to the angle for which he was holding it.

In his left hand, it seemed that the crystal focus was made of the same material, though it looked like an odd sort of flower with a ribbon of runes swirling around it.

With a mighty grunt, he had brought his hand holding the rapier up and dug the pointed tip into the ground, lifting himself up onto his feet as he called out for everyone to stay back. Izuku couldn't see behind himself, but everyone looked worried or in pure awe at what was happening to him.

"F-fray… how do I…. push past my limits…?" Izuku muttered low to himself, the pain in his body growing more in agony by the second as he panted hard.

"The ending to a difficult battle, the reality of losing those you admire or love, the disgust of not going all out to save everyone. The rush of turning a defeat into victory. Use those feelings to empower your body and go beyond your limits." Fray said with a determined voice within Izuku's mind. However, even the struggling student could imagine the smirk on the shade's lips as he said one final thing.

"Or, as I'm sure you heard your mentor tell you numerous times, go Plus Ultra."

Izuku smirked, pushing his arms and hands up and brought the rapier and crystal together with that audible click sound; however, it was floating in place while his arms were crisscrossed on either side of the weapon, the clawed hands poised around. There was a silence in the air until two prominent symbols appeared on each side of his hands, and about a solid ten meters away, identical symbols appeared on a vacant part of the ground.

Izuku began to twist his arms around the crystal focus, each time his hands went past a certain point of the crystal, a ball of pure light shot out of the symbol and flew directly towards the enlarged one on the ground, his own body dimming and more runes within circles appeared on the ground until a giant runic circle encompassed the runes that had begun to hum with power.

"Limit Break…"

Izuku's voice boomed out, a tinge of an ethereal-like tone weaved into his words as his classmates and teachers looked on in shock as the red mage grabbed the staff and broke them into the focus and rapier once more, his arms swung wide as he bellowed out.

"VERMILLION SCOURGE!"

As the words left his lips, the two points of light suddenly burst. Two large red pillars of pure magic shot up into the sky with a massive concussive explosion, nearly knocking down everyone onto their butts as the air around fizzled with stray sparks of red magic, causing some of the students' hair to frizz up.

The dust from the attack soon settled, leaving two giant scorch marks where the pillars of light had shot out from as well as leaving the runes that surrounded them scorched to the earth as well in such fine detail. The thud of a body collapsing onto the ground grabbed everyone's attention as everyone looked on to see Izuku passed out, sweating profusely and panting hard.

A sudden cry of Midoriya's name rang out as teacher and student alike rushed to his side while Sir Nighteye stood frozen and aghast at the destruction caused by the boy.

Just what the hell was Izuku Midoriya.

Elsewhere, as the green-haired boy was dealing with the agony of overcoming his limits, within a darkened alleyway, a dark armored being grunted and collapsed against some trash cans, his body wracking with pain, and he cried out in anguish to no avail as people ignored the cries for help.

The darkness swirled around him as purple hues with small red static charges pulsed around him as the odd person in pain cried out once again before collapsing onto his hands and knees, panting and sweating hard.

As quickly as it came, the pain suddenly subsided; his breathing was hoarse and hollow as his clawed gauntlets dug into the cement. He spat onto the ground; his curly and bright magenta hair clung to his forehead as he panted.

"Ooooo, what do we have here?" a feminine voice could be heard, followed by a giggle from in front of him, as the armored individual slowly looked up, still recovering from his ordeal, his cat-like magenta eyes soon found a similar pair of golden ones looking straight at him. The girl with messy buns on the sides of her head was wearing a beige cardigan that was obviously larger on her body, as well as a blue skirt that showed off her legs while she was crouched down in front of him with pure black stockings that clung tightly to her calves, revealing a little plumpness to them while she wore dirty brown dress shoes the were covered in muck and… blood?

The stranger in the armor watched as the girl's lips slowly widened with a cat-like grin, showing off her elongated canines as she giggled once more, "My name is Himiko Toga! And your eyes are like mine, and also really pretty!"
