The Attack

Then, amid her surprise, she felt a body so soft it was unbelievable.

"How was it? Did it feel real?"

"It did... cough, cough." Yukino hurriedly pulled back her hand and said awkwardly, "I'm originally a boy. Isn't this kind of inappropriate?"

Unexpectedly, Hagakure-chan from the anime was far more open in person than she had imagined.

But when they had fought the Monster today, Hagakure-chan had merely used her clothes to lure it over and had no real ability to participate in battle. That made Yukino even more curious about why she had been admitted.

Maybe she had relied on... Special Rescue Points?

"Now that Su Lin has touched her, I'm next."

"What? Ah..."

Hagakure suddenly pounced on Sora and knocked her down. Sora tried to get up, but she barely had the strength to resist and could only helplessly face the soft air pressing down on her.

While everyone started washing up, in the boys' bath next door, Mineta was pressed against the wall eavesdropping, so excited that he was drooling.

"See? See? True pursuit lies right beyond this wall. We didn't miss the mixed bathing schedule for boys and girls after all—it really was an accident. I think I heard Su Lin-chan's..."

Splash—

Iida suddenly stood up. "Mineta, stop! What you're doing is a shameful act that demeans both yourself and the girls."

As he spoke, Tenya Iida swiftly approached him.

"Iida." Seeing Mineta about to go mad and charge toward the girls' bath, Su Lin said calmly, "I have a suggestion. You can hug him with all your strength. That should make Mineta behave himself for a while."

"What?"

Su Lin's suggestion made Iida's eyes light up. Though he did not understand why, he somehow felt it should work well.

Thus, beneath Mineta's increasingly horrified gaze, he quickly approached, spread his arms, and grabbed him in a tight embrace.

"Mineta, I will not allow you to defile the girls."

"Ahhh, help! Help! Nooooo..." Mineta let out a miserable scream, but his poor little body could only be ruthlessly restrained by the other boy's powerful muscles. He could no longer climb over to the other side.

"Iida, you're really useful." Su Lin sighed.

She had thought Mineta would behave himself, but the moment Iida released him, he burst into manic laughter and used his Pop Off to climb the high wall, intending to rush over and peep at the girls.

Then... tragically, he was knocked down by the boy who had previously punched Midoriya in the crotch.

Based on Yukino's understanding, that child was named Kota. When he had been young, his hero parents had died in the line of duty, leaving him full of hatred for the profession of hero.

From Yukino's perspective, Kota's change was not impossible to understand. After all, losing both parents was far too cruel a blow for a child.

At six-thirty the next morning, the sky was just beginning to brighten.

The Class A students, dragged out of bed early in the morning, yawned miserably, looking completely half-asleep.

"Good morning, everyone. Today, the intensive training camp officially begins. The purpose of this camp is to strengthen everyone's abilities and obtain provisional licenses. This is necessary preparation to confront the increasingly obvious hostility."

As he spoke, Shota Aizawa tossed a softball far away toward Bakugo. "Bakugo, try throwing this."

"Hah, another fitness test?"

"When you first enrolled, your record was 706 meters. Let's see how much you can improve it now."

Bakugo calmly walked into the open area, roared, "Die!" and threw the softball.

Its terrifying initial velocity stirred up a gale. Under the force of the explosion, the ball was like a cannonball, vanishing from sight in an instant.

"After all this time, Bakugo's abilities should have improved a lot, right?"

"Maybe he can throw it a thousand meters?"

Under everyone's expectant gazes, Shota Aizawa calmly raised the measuring device and displayed the final result.

"709 meters."

"What?" Bakugo looked as if he had suffered a devastating blow, freezing in place.

"As the results show, over the past three months, you've experienced many things. Your minds and techniques have indeed improved, but your Quirks have barely changed at all. So starting today, we'll train your Quirks..." Shota Aizawa revealed a demonic smile. "It'll be painful enough to make you despair, so don't you dare die."

"What?"

"Sigh, come to think of it, my Quirk has been growing all along. After all, I have more and more avatars, and I've never stopped training." Yukino patted her forehead.

"Su Lin can just stay the way she was before." Shota glanced at her, unable to find any fault with her at all.

In truth, the real purpose of this Forest Camp Training was to train everyone's Quirks.

The four heroes from the Pussycats were serving as instructors: American Shorthair with the Earth Flow Quirk, Mandalay with telepathy, Pixie-Bob with the Search Quirk, and Tiger with the Soft Body Quirk.

Incidentally, Tiger was probably the only man among them. He liked violence, was covered in muscles, and wore... women's clothing.

And so, an utterly insane round of Quirk training began, so terrifying that Class B, who had just arrived nearby and witnessed it, felt chills run down their spines.

Likewise, Class B began their own hellish training.

After being put through the wringer all day, everyone gathered together and cooked a delicious pot of curry rice.

Since Yukino's time had run out, only Sora and Mashiro could actually eat with the main body. But in a situation like this, Su Lin did not dare summon Mashiro casually.

The moment she sat down, Tsuyu Asui across from her gave a "kero" and shyly called, "Onii-chan?"

"Huh?" Sora and the main body froze at the same time.

"Little Su Lin's tastes are really special."

"..."

P.S.: I slept for a few hours, then got up and finished writing this chapter, haha.

Attack

The third day of the Forest Camp Training, afternoon.

Su Lin stood in a pitch-black cave with a strange expression, his back against the wall as he asked doubtfully, "Why did you call me to a place like this?"

Fumikage Tokoyami stood before him and said with utmost seriousness, "You should understand."

"I should understand?"

Facing that crow head, Su Lin recalled his previous experience with the Maid Manager and inexplicably developed a certain psychological shadow.

Especially since he was pressed against the wall in the same position right now.

Fortunately, Tokoyami would not do anything so absurd. "I hope you can spar with me using that avatar who can release darkness."

"Spar?" Su Lin thought for a moment, then shook his head. "That avatar's summoning time is too short. I'd rather save her in case of emergencies."

Considering that the Villain Alliance was very likely to attack tonight, Su Lin did not dare waste the avatar's time casually. He would rather use her tonight.

"How about this? Tonight, I'll use that avatar to train with you. For now, I can only use Yukino at most."

"That works too."

Thus, with no other choice, Su Lin's body slowly changed, becoming a girl in a sailor-style uniform.

Her skin was so good that in the pitch-black environment, everything about her became especially eye-catching: her exquisite features, her delicate neck, and the small strip of snowy-white absolute territory between her black stockings and skirt.

She was pale without a trace of color.

Yet Yukino still trusted Fumikage Tokoyami.

During the Cavalry Battle, she had even sat in his hand, yet he had been gentlemanly enough not to glance at her even once. That was not something ordinary self-control could accomplish. Most other boys could hardly be guaranteed not to make any little moves.

"In a place this dark, Dark Shadow's combat power has already greatly increased. That's unfair to you, so I'll control my strength."

"Do whatever you want." Yukino muttered, silently clenching her fists and preparing for battle.

Her current arm strength was around 300 kilograms, while her leg strength had been measured at 450 kilograms. With an instantaneous burst, she could produce roughly three times that impact.

That meant a punch could carry 0.9 tons of force, while a kick could reach 1.35 tons.

Still, that seemed far from enough to deal with Fumikage Tokoyami's Dark Shadow, especially in a pitch-black cave like this.

The next moment, seeing the black shadow attack, Yukino threw a punch. Her arm struck it as though it had hit reinforced steel, and with a clang, she was sent bouncing back.

Naturally, Dark Shadow also felt the immense recoil and retreated slightly.

"Unbelievable." He was shocked by the power hidden beneath Yukino's petite body.

It seemed that her combat power had improved considerably compared to the Sports Festival.

"Tokoyami." Yukino took a deep breath. "Your weakness is close-quarters combat, right?"

Fumikage Tokoyami froze for a moment, then nodded solemnly.

"Then why don't you attach Dark Shadow to your body and merge its arms with your own hands?"

Fumikage Tokoyami's eyes lit up, and he immediately controlled Dark Shadow to do so.

"That's right. Next, you just need to master it through practice. Fight me with your full strength. Don't hold back just because the person in front of you is a girl, I..."

"Are you a masochist?" Dark Shadow suddenly asked.

"I..." Yukino's voice caught. Only seven or eight seconds later did she take a deep, deep breath and say, "No."

In short, the daytime training with Tokoyami soon passed.

Night fell, and the test of courage began.

Yukino, who had canceled one summoning midway, still had two hours of use remaining.

She yawned as she watched the Class A students head into the forest wave after wave for the test of courage, sitting on the grass in boredom.

She took off her shoes and reached down to rub the foot she had deliberately cut earlier, a conflicted expression appearing on her face.

Recently, she had been so fixated on training that she liked to give herself a little stimulation whenever she had nothing to do. As a result, both teachers and students had begun looking at her strangely.

She inexplicably felt that her image in everyone else's eyes was slowly falling apart.

"I should train by myself in private from now on. Otherwise, people are really going to misunderstand me eventually."

She reached down and touched her thigh beneath the black stockings. A sensitive sensation rushed into her mind, making Yukino gasp softly. The main body beside her shamefully reacted as well.

"Looks like nobody noticed me."

She felt slightly guilty, but from the main body's perspective, that soft, breathy gasp had sounded really nice.

"Mmm~~ Should I gasp for myself to hear?"

A certain thought in her mind became impossible to suppress. She deliberately had the main body move closer, then tilted her head back and began breathing softly into his ear.

After an unknown amount of time, a faint scorched smell drifted over from somewhere.

Yukino, who had been entertaining herself, jolted and immediately merged with the main body before raising her head warily.

"What's that smell?"

The moment she spoke, Iida nearby pointed into the distance. "Look over there! There's black smoke. Was there a fire?"

The instant everyone voiced their confusion, American Shorthair, who had been standing where she was, suddenly let out a scream and was dragged into the distance by some force.

Boom!

After the deafening sound, a gigantic ** object nearly twenty centimeters thick, like a hammer striking wood, slammed down hard onto her head.

"Housecats really are troublesome." The other party sneered. Beside him stood another person carrying two crossed swords on his back, dressed similarly to the Hero Killer but looking, no matter how one looked at him, like a Ninja Turtle.

"American Shorthair!" Midoriya was the first to rush forward to save the green cat, but Tiger blocked him with one arm.

"Don't go over there. Things are bad right now."

"Greetings, everyone from U.A. High School. We are the Villain Alliance Special Raid Team." The Turtle Bros across from them spread their arms and laughed. "

"Special Raid Team?"

Yukino, who had been sitting on the ground hugging her knees, rose gloomily and patted dust that did not exist from her skirt, feeling helpless.

This was the downside of watching anime too quickly and forgetting the details. Although she roughly knew that the Villain Alliance would attack at this time, she had long forgotten the specific circumstances.

But that was fine too. At least in this matter, she could act freely.

"Oh, there's even a little sister in the grass over there." The man holding the club licked his lips and noticed the silent Yukino. "Once I make this kitty's head bloom, you'll be next."
