Looking at his exhausted classmates who just wanted to make something quick and easy, Iida shouted encouragingly, "As Pro Hero, it's essential to fill the hearts and minds of people during disaster relief efforts! Everyone, cheer up, let's make the world's best curry!"

Iida heard was a weak, listless reply.

Just then, Neito Monoma walked past Class A carrying a bundle of firewood. Unable to suppress his true nature, he laughed mockingly, "Oh, so this is Class A? How pathetic! You can't even cook a proper meal. I wonder how long you'll survive after you enter society!"

Denki Kaminari the table and stood up. "I knew you were asking for a beating! I thought you'd changed a bit, but it seems you haven't changed at all!"

"Ignore him," Jilan Jiyu said to Kaminari while chopping vegetables with steady, quick movements. "Instead of wasting time arguing with him, you should be careful not to burn the rice in the pot."

Kaminari down and hurriedly stirred the curry in the pot, complaining to Todoroki, "You two, stop adding fuel to the fire! Even if I could keep this pot burning, I couldn't!"

Shoto Todoroki and Katsuki Bakugo were in charge of starting the fire. Although they didn't say a word, the two seemed to be competing with each other. Bakugo made the fire a little bigger, and then Todoroki followed suit and increased the firepower.

"Sorry," Hong said softly, stopping adding fuel to the fire first.

Bakugo clicked his tongue and stopped.

Seeing the lively atmosphere here, the boy named "Kota" inexplicably lowered the brim of his hat, turned around, and walked into the darkness with his head down.

Bakugo caught a glimpse of this out of the corner of his eye. He didn't react, but his brows furrowed even deeper.

"Although it might be a bit awkward to sell the food in a restaurant, for someone like me who has just had a busy day, the curry is so delicious I can't stop eating it!" Kirishima shoveled rice into his mouth.

"You can eat quite a lot, but you can't beat me!" For some reason, Tetsutetsu's competitive spirit was reignited. He buried his face in the bowl and kept stirring it with his spoon.

Momo Yaoyorozu ate a lot of food today, but she still ate a lot of curry for dinner, which made Uraraka say with some envy, "Yaoyorozu, you really have a good appetite!"

"The food I eat is converted into fat and consumed by my Quirk, so I can actually digest very little food," Yaoyorozu explained with a laugh.

Jiro secretly glanced at a certain spot on Yaoyorozu's body and whispered, "It looks like a camel's hump. I'm so envious."

Denki Kaminari, with his sharp ears, heard it and burst out laughing while eating. He choked on his food, coughing violently, "Hahahaha! That's you, Hira-chan! Cough cough cough!"

When Denki Kaminari caught his breath, he saw Jiro staring at him with the look of utter disbelief. "What do you want to say?"

Kaminari gave an awkward smile, "I was wondering if you could help me get that bottle of water behind you?"

"Take it yourself."

"Understood!" Kaminari like he had been granted a pardon. He quickly finished the last of his food and slipped away.

"Thank you for the meal, I'm full!" Kirishima put down his chopsticks and let out a long sigh of relief. He glanced around, scratched his head, and asked the people around him, "Has anyone seen where Bakugo went? I haven't seen him."

Midoriya replied, "Kacchan left about ten minutes ago, carrying a bowl of rice."

Hanta Sero chuckled, "I'm sure Bakugo ate several bowls of rice last night when he arrived here, just like Kirishima, without any regard for his image. He probably doesn't want to lose face now, so he took his food and left to find a quiet corner to eat."

"Is that so?" Kirishima was a little doubtful, but he didn't care and excitedly raised his hands, "Anyway, who wants to play cards tonight? Raise your hand!"

Katsuki Bakugo arrived at the mountain. There was a cave in front of him. He stopped at the cave entrance and said coldly, "Hey, kid, stop hiding. I saw you walking this way."

The cave entrance was quiet, seemingly empty. Bakugo impatiently placed his left hand on the stone wall, and with a "boom," the stone wall Vibrate. A few seconds later, the boy named Kota emerged from the cave, hands in his pockets, looking up at Bakugo with a hint of fear in his eyes.

"Heh, finally you've come out. I thought you were going to be so stubborn." Bakugo walked up to Kota, looked down at him, and shoved the plate of curry he was holding into Kota's hands. "Here, eat up."

Kota froze for two seconds, then shouted angrily, "Who told you to come here? I told you, I don't want anything to do with people like you. Get out of my secret base!"

"Get lost? Do you know who you're talking to?" Bakugo sneered, revealing a villainous smile. "Is this your secret base? Perfect, as punishment for insulting me, I'll destroy this place."

Seeing Bakugo's gaze, Kota shuddered. He knew Bakugo wasn't joking and shouted incredulously, "What are you doing!? Aren't you guys supposed to be heroes? How can you use your Quirk so casually? Stop it!"

Bakugo slowly raised his palm, pointing it at the cave entrance. "Stop? Why should I stop? This is private territory. Even if I use my Quirk, it's not Quirk, is it?"

"I'm going to tell Mandalay, she'll stop you!"

"Fine, go ahead," Bakugo nonchalantly. "We're here to train our Quirk. You just said it yourself, this is your secret base. It might be important to you, but to Mandalay, it's just an ordinary hole. Even if I destroy this place, I can explain that I'm training. Who can argue with that?"

"You?" Bakugo sneered. "You cowardly brat who only knows how to call for help and bluff. If you're so capable, come and stop me! Use your Quirk to attack me!"

"I will never use my Quirk, I hate that stuff!" Kota shouted.

"Is it because you hate it, or because you're afraid?" Bakugo pointed his palm at Kota's face from the hole. Seeing Bakugo's glowing palm, Kota couldn't help but take two steps back.

"Because your parents, who were both Pro Hero, died tragically while saving people, you started to hate Pro Hero and Quirk?" Bakugo laughed Bakugo. "What a choice of a weakling! You only know how to run away, and you never dare to throw a punch, just like that old Deku!"

"How do you know about my parents!?" Kota was surprised to hear Bakugo's words, but he quickly realized what he meant and said with disgust, "I know, it's Mandalay, that woman likes to tell others about me!"

"That kind of thing doesn't matter at all," Bakugo sneered. "Your parents' hero team is called Water Hose (Pipe). They're clearly weak, yet they still charge into the enemy. Isn't that just suicide? As their son, your Quirk should also be related to water, right? Let me think, maybe you have the same tear ducts as that guy, a Quirk that allows you to cry anytime, anywhere. No wonder, with such a shameful Quirk, it's no wonder you don't dare to use it."

Kota retorted angrily, "Don't you dare insult my parents! They're heroes! My Quirk is powerful too, I just don't want to use it! I don't want to use what my parents left me as a tool for showing off!"

"A hero doesn't die easily at the hands of some nobody. A true hero is someone All Might, who stands tall and unyielding. Your parents are just weak idiots!" Bakugo sneered. "Your Quirk is strong, huh? Come on, attack me! Let me see just how thick the pipes left behind by Water Hose really are!"

Kota trembled all over, glaring angrily at Bakugo, his grip on the plate tightening.

"That's enough of the boasting." Bakugo's smile faded, and he stopped looking at Kota, pointing his palm back at the cave. "Hate your powerlessness. You just watched helplessly as your 'secret base' was destroyed by my Quirk, and you couldn't do anything about it."
