The question Izuku Midoriya once pondered: Can someone become a hero without a Quirk?
The answer is: No.
Yukino walked near a dormitory building and saw two suspicious figures in the woods.
"Young Midoriya, you can't control ONE.FOR.ALL properly yet, can you? What are your plans?"
Yukino heard the voice and stopped in a slightly hidden spot, looking over. She saw a gaunt All Might earnestly asking Izuku Midoriya, who was standing there.
Midoriya lowered his head and was silent for half a second before replying, "No, I can. I've mastered 5% full-covearge, using the method Su Lin taught me."
As he spoke, he raised his fist and swung it twice as if to prove it.
"That guy..." All Might was momentarily speechless.
He had actually mastered it, and using the method Su Lin taught him.
How to put it, Su Lin was the first person to recognize All Might's true identity based on his own intuition. And now, he had successfully guided Izuku Midoriya in using ONE.FOR.ALL. Coupled with his own displayed strength, All Might didn't believe for a second that he was ordinary.
"I really don't understand him... Just in time, the U.A. Sports Festival is almost here, and that will be a good opportunity to understand Su Lin," All Might said with certainty. "Although you've gotten much stronger, you're still far behind Bakugo and Todoroki. As for Su Lin... honestly, judging by that explosion back then, even I couldn't quite see through his strength."
Midoriya blinked. "Is Su Lin really that strong?"
"Yes, he's probably hiding a lot. But compared to him, I'm more worried about you, Young Midoriya."
"Worried about me?" Midoriya sensed a hint of worry in All Might's eyes.
"As expected, the identity the system created for me is flawless," Yukino said, feeling a bit more relaxed after hearing All Might's words.
She didn't continue listening to their whispered conversation. Instead, she leisurely strolled around the surrounding garden before finally returning to the classroom.
After a simple class, it was already past 3 PM, and school was over. Everyone in Class A, as usual, packed their bags, ready to leave the classroom.
Just then, a large, dark crowd suddenly appeared, blocking the doorway.
Yes, they were blocked.
"What's going on? What are you guys doing? We can't get out," Mineta's small body let out an angry shout, like a flea in impotent rage.
Tenya Iida scanned the crowd with a serious expression, adjusted his glasses, and stepped forward. "May I ask why you are here to see Class A?"
"Of course, we're scouting the enemy, you two pieces of trash," Katsuki Bakugo grumbled, calmly picked up his bag, and walked between them.
"He doesn't give anyone any face at all," Su Lin, sitting at his desk, propped his chin with his hand, observing the scene outside the door through the small gap in his mask.
Bakugo slowly walked to the door, looked down at the large crowd outside with arrogance, and said indifferently, "Doing this is a complete waste of effort. Get lost, extras!"
"Extras? Hmph."
From the right side of the crowd outside, a male voice rang out. "I came to see what kind of people the rumored Class A are, and you're all incredibly arrogant."
The newcomer had purple hair and emerged from the crowd, his cold eyes sweeping over the faces of everyone in Class A. "Many people at this school were placed in the General Studies Department or the other two courses because they didn't get into the Hero Course. Do you know that?"
He sneered as he said this. "And the school has left opportunities for us. They will reconsider whether to transfer us to the Hero Course based on our performance at the Sports Festival. Just as there's an entrance, there's also an exit... I'm here today to declare war. Even if you're in the Hero Course, if you get too carried away, you'll be kicked out."
After he finished speaking, the scene fell silent...
In the unusual quiet, only the sound of Su Lin's fingers tapping on his desk could be heard.
A few seconds later, a wild shout erupted from the back of the crowd. "Hey, I'm from Class B next door. I heard you guys fought with villains and came to ask a few questions, but you kid seems to be acting like you're the greatest."
"Tch." Bakugo couldn't be bothered to respond and was about to walk out.
At this moment, Su Lin's desk-tapping motion suddenly stopped, and many people turned their attention to him.
A black robe, a black mask—whether to hide his face or related to his Quirk, it was hard to tell.
"I haven't seen him before, but I heard there are quite a few strong people in Class A, and one of them is rumored to be a freak. Maybe that's him."
This comment came from somewhere, and a slight commotion arose in the crowd from the General Studies Department.
"So when did I become a freak? They're making me sound like some big boss," Su Lin muttered inwardly.
Sometimes rumors just start out of nowhere.
Although they couldn't feel it themselves, in the eyes of the General Studies students, Class A was like a towering mountain, seemingly insurmountable.
And the strongest few in this class, Shoto Todoroki and Katsuki Bakugo, undoubtedly represented the peak combat power of the first-years.
Only this guy, who didn't show off and was rumored to be the Class President of Class A, had only a few scattered rumors describing his terrifying nature.
Su Lin yawned. He originally wanted to say a few words to put on a show, but then he thought it was unnecessary.
Besides, Hitoshi Shinso, who led the challenge, wasn't a disagreeable person.
Su Lin silently picked up his backpack, yawned, and slowly walked towards the group. Like Bakugo, he passed through the crowd.
The students from the General Studies Department unconsciously made way for him.
Chapter 32: Evening at Home
"Completely ignored."
"Even though he didn't say anything, it's surprisingly annoying."
As the regular students of the Science Department were chattering amongst themselves, Hitoshi Shinso let out a snort and called out, "Let's go."
Their objective had been achieved, and there was no point in staying any longer.
Everyone knew that the strongest student in Class 1-A was Endeavor's son, Shoto Todoroki, who had been admitted through early admission.
However, after coming here, they had also genuinely felt that some strange rumors might actually be true.
"This is bad. Bakugo's attitude just offended everyone, which is basically making things harder for us," Mineta said anxiously.
"Su Lin also just left. Maybe he thinks doing anything is pointless," Ochaco Uraraka said with a hint of complaint from the other side.
Koji Koda scratched his head, his expression as honest as ever, but the cold sweat on his forehead indicated his current unease.
In short, the incident was more like a minor interlude and quickly passed.
As it turned out, no matter who it was, as long as they came to U.A. High, they basically possessed an unyielding spirit to become strong. This was true even for the students in the regular department.
With only two weeks left until the Sports Festival, every member of Class 1-A began practicing diligently.
Su Lin returned home, put down his bag, and then summoned Sister Doma.
"Uh... why did you appear directly on the bed?"
Avatars generally appeared within a ten-meter radius, determined by the main body. However, if not deliberately considered, their appearance location was completely random (and would not overlap with solid objects).
But why was it that when it came to Sister Doma, she appeared on the bed, timidly leaning against the wall?
"Hoo—"
It turned out that for the same species, the attraction between the opposite sexes was imprinted in their genes. This was why males did not fall in love with female dogs but only craved human females (excluding special cases).
The moment Sister Doma appeared, Su Lin felt a bit suffocated.
He had the same feeling when facing Yukino and X. It was no wonder, as all three were super beautiful girls.
Moreover, whether it was a system benefit or something else, Sister Doma's attire had changed this time. Her upper body was a white dress that extended to her knees. On her two baby-soft feet, she wore white over-the-knee socks, revealing a faint flesh tone, and black short boots were placed on the floor.
Even without making any particular expression, she had a look of pitiable helplessness.
And perhaps due to the "little sister" aura, Su Lin now only wanted to walk over and pat her head... but as soon as he reached out, he felt that patting his own head felt strange.
"So, let's first test Sister Doma's healing ability."
The system's prompt was clear: self-healing and damage growth were abilities unique to Yukino. Sister Doma was more like an assistant/utility person, and her combat power was even less than that of an ordinary girl.
However, her existence gave Su Lin the ability to have his main body bear risks.
That is: the moment the main body received a fatal attack, Sister Doma would tragically die on the spot.
"Pfft, that's what it says, but this avatar is still me, after all."
Su Lin felt that ever since he obtained this system and transmigrated, he had embarked on a certain path of no return. But he couldn't help it; refusing this path was impossible... after all, everyone had a desire to become stronger.
Sister Doma took a small knife from the cabinet, bit her lip, and made a three-centimeter-long cut on her arm.
The pain made her frown slightly, and blood dripped from her fair arm onto the floor.
After waiting for about 20 seconds, the wound did not seem to recover.
"Looks like it's no use."
The injuries of the day would only disappear the next day. This meant that even if he canceled the summon now, it wouldn't change the fact of the damage.
"I'll still use Yukino's body for training."
The current single-arm strength of over 200 kilograms could rival a tiger. Not to mention, Yukino's physique was petite, and her overall qualities were much better than those of a muscular man.
Stretching her muscles, Yukino left the house, leaving only Sister Doma alone inside.
Hugging the rabbit in her arms, she picked up her phone and played with it for a while, suddenly feeling a craving.
Fortunately, there were snacks in the cabinet.
She took out potato chips and cola and ate them heartily. A few minutes later, a "knock-knock-knock" sound suddenly came from the door of the house.
Sister Doma immediately got off the bed vigilantly, ran to the door cautiously, and listened to the outside with her ear to the door.
"It's troublesome not to have a peephole." She didn't dare to open the door casually. There were too many Quirk criminals in this world. If a girl was alone in the house and encountered a bad person, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Knock-knock-knock!
The door was knocked steadily.
Sister Doma gritted her teeth and finally opened the door gently.
"Fine, the worst that can happen is canceling the avatar summon."
Click!
"Hi, Su Lin... Pfft."
The girl outside the door had just spoken when her voice abruptly stopped. Clearly, Torhu Hagakure hadn't expected that the one opening the door would be such a pure and lovely girl with twintails.
"Who are you?"
Su Lin had actually hidden a loli in his own house?
No, ordinary girls aren't this cute. This has to be Su Lin's avatar.
"It's me."
As expected, Sister Doma let out a soft sigh and revealed a certain truth. The next second, Torhu Hagakure leaned in and started rubbing Sister Doma's face.
"So cute."
"Mmph, don't do that."
Feeling the breath so close, Sister Doma quickly took a few steps back, sat on the bed, and looked at Torhu Hagakure with a speechless gaze.
"Don't look at me with those resentful eyes. I can't help but want to tease you," Torhu Hagakure hummed a couple of times.
"My main body is training outside right now. Why aren't you using your time to work hard and instead doing this here?"
Sister Doma scoffed and took a bite of the potato chips next to her. Then... Torhu Hagakure noticed the cut on her hand.
"What did you just do? Why do you have a wound on your hand?"
"Testing," Sister Doma raised her arm. "Because the previous avatar had strong self-healing abilities, I wanted to see if this body did too. The result..."
"Whoa, you actually went through with it?"
"I had no choice," Sister Doma felt her thigh itching. She looked down and saw a mosquito fly out from under her clothes.
She frowned slightly. Is this body some kind of devil? Why do mosquitoes like it so much?
She swatted at it, and with a snap, the mosquito died on Miss Hagakure's face.
"Whoa! What are you doing? Why did you hit me?" Torhu Hagakure covered her face, looking sad and wronged.
"I swatted a mosquito."
Sister Doma calmly wiped the dead insect from her palm, then reached under her skirt to scratch her thigh.
"Stop that!" Torhu Hagakure grabbed her arm. "Girls shouldn't do such vulgar things. Who puts their hand under their skirt in front of other people?"
