"AllForOne... All For One?" Jilan read it aloud. "The name is quite easy to understand, but it doesn't sound like the name of a mastermind at all."

"That's just his Quirk. You can call him the Dark Emperor if you want," Stain replied casually, then fell back into his memories.

"More than a decade ago, during All Might's heyday, he once rescued over a hundred people from a large shopping mall in just ten minutes during a massive fire. The final tally showed he single-handedly saved nearly a thousand people! Afterwards, every time he appeared before people, he always wore that reassuring smile, as if to say, 'It's all over now. If you ask why, well, it's because I'm here!'"

Stain smiled, as if recalling All Might's smiling face. "Someone like All Might must be a born hero, destined to be Symbol of Peace. But whenever I see All Might on television with other Pro Hero, that slightly nervous and reserved smile on his face, I start to wonder, what makes those people worthy of standing with All Might? What makes them worthy of the title of hero?!"

Stain spoke with a hint of resentment, "So, I proposed the Hero Return Theory, arguing that heroes shouldn't be driven by personal gain but should do what they're supposed to do. But it didn't work; society remains distorted! Pro Hero are frequent guests on television, and every year there are movies about Pro Hero, while at disaster sites, it's always the police and firefighters who arrive first who work silently! What's most unbearable is that those same people are still online, boasting about how much they've contributed and how many people they've saved...!"

He took a breath and calmed himself down. "Later, I happened to see an interview where All Might said that he solidified his belief in becoming a hero while studying in the United States, so I followed in All Might's footsteps and went to the United States."

This is like a pilgrimage to a sacred site... Jilan Jiyu suddenly had this thought.

Stain reluctant to discuss his time in the United States, perhaps wanting to conceal the truth from his teacher. He skipped over that part and continued, "When I returned to Japan, I was like All Might, firmly convinced that words alone have no power; only by making Pro Hero realize they are in constant danger can we weed out the incompetent imposters."

Although Jilan did not think Stain did the right thing, his will was indeed real.

"I've also seen the news about that expert you mentioned. The crime rate in every city I visited decreased. I even thought that if I traveled to every city in this island nation, would I be able to achieve my dream?" Stain chuckled self-deprecatingly. "But I realized I was too naive."

"In Hosu City, I was taken to the League of Villains' criminal base by a guy named Kurogiri. Tomura Shigaraki, like you, is the kind of person I hate most. If you're still in a confused, indecisive state, that guy is only thinking about destroying everything!" Stain looked at Jilan. "You asked me if I was with the League of Villains, right? I'll tell you now, the moment I met him, I wanted to kill that antisocial brat Shigaraki! But I couldn't."

"The instant my blade touched his skin, an uncontrollable chill ran through me. I looked up, and the dark Dark Shadow opposite the television met my gaze for a second. After that, I couldn't stop trembling, and instantly abandoned any thought of killing Shigaraki!"

Television, darkness, immortality, rebirth...

"DIO...!" The word blurted out in Jilan's mind, "That guy is DIO Brando!"

"What DIO? I've already made myself perfectly clear, he's the Dark Emperor AllForOne from decades ago!" Stain exclaimed excitedly. "Although this is only the first time I've seen him, I know that his aura is definitely that of the legendary figure!"

"Ah, that's right, All For One, that's just his Quirk!" Jilan Jiyu couldn't hear what Stain was saying anymore; his mind was completely occupied with Dio!

Dio possesses the body of a vampire, essentially granting him immortality; he cannot tolerate light, so he hides in the shadows; he acts cautiously, always sending his henchmen to attack while he remains in the rear...

... Since I, possessing Killer Queen and Hamon, have come into this world, why can't I, a vampire with the Stand "The World," come here?! Could it be that the invitation Kurogiri gave me was Dio's invitation, because he discovered traces of a Stand on me and wants his fellow vampire to join him!?

Calm down, calm down... Jilan Jiyu forced himself to calm down. If the other party really was Dio, nearly a hundred years had passed since he came to this world. With his cruel heart, he must have wanted to dominate this world. If he still had the ability to plunder other people's Quirk, then this world would have long been a ruin. He would never allow the Symbol of Peace, All Might, to still be alive in this world!

Suddenly remembering something, Jilan quickly asked Stain, "What was the background of Dio's surroundings when you met him?"

"I already said, it's AllForOne!" Stain retorted, then recalled, "It was very dark around him, his entire face was shrouded in darkness, I could only see that he was sitting in a chair, and behind the chair was a large cylindrical nutrient tank... This is just my guess, he must be seriously injured, so seriously that he can't go outside!"

This is it! Jilan's eyes lit up. Dio must be unable to go out right now, just like in Egypt. Perhaps it's because his vampire identity makes him unable to adapt to this world that the League of Villains was sent as a vanguard to snipe at All Might, the strongest hero in the world!

Dio... You're a coward no matter which world you're in! You have a huge advantage, yet you're too cautious to engage. Do you want All Might to learn how to stop time before All Might make a move?!

Jilan Jiyu breathed a sigh of relief. Thinking about it this way, it seemed that Dio wasn't paying attention to him, but rather focusing his attention on All Might. Perhaps All Might made him feel an unsolvable power, like Jotaro Kujo. He was still recruiting troops to take down All Might!

Also, I'm overthinking it. I've never revealed Killer Queen's abilities. In public, I've always fought using Hamon. Dio would never be able to sense that I also possess a Stand. Besides, my name is Jilan Jiyu, not that murderer named Yoshikage Kira. From now on, I just need to hide my ability and live a peaceful life. If Dio wants to fight, let him go find All Might. Even if the sky falls, it won't hit me...

As Jilan tried to comfort herself, something suddenly occurred to her, and she broke out in a cold sweat—if Dio couldn't go out because he was a vampire, then her own Hamon body and her own blood were the best nourishment for him, and he might even twist off her head and put it on him! It was very likely that this was the reason he invited her!

Even if I had to get a face transplant, I wouldn't want to get a head transplant!!!
