Even during a training camp, Sabrina makes sure to always look impeccable. While brushing her long hair in front of the mirror in the bathroom, she glances at the rest of the girls.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAJMF8tZUldr
Most of them are still asleep, unwilling to wake up early. Something that will come to bite them in the butt very soon.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAcfaKHLiXi5
Vlad King: “RISE AND SHINE! COME OUTSIDE IN 10 MINUTES OR YOU CAN FORGET ABOUT LUNCH!”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAIDtZ41ryQn
Several groans echoed within the shared sleeping area, alongside a quiet giggle. Kendo got off her phone and started preparing alongside Sabrina, the vice-class president of the class.
103Please respect copyright.PENANALPSSM2f3K4
Kendo: “Still the early bird, huh?”
103Please respect copyright.PENANANoo7W6Ae9R
Sabrina: “You as well.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANA9atwxkTCrD
Kendo: “Yeah, but I don’t take as long to get ready as you. I’m just a light sleeper.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAchxSXHAkWf
Sabrina: “I think the only person who has more unruly hair than me is Shiozaki.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAFODQWGKk00
Kendo: “Haha, that’s true.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAd0NV1qPYu4
Putting down the brush and giving herself one more look off, Sabrina turns toward the exit.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAIJZBBi0lVE
Sabrina: “Well, I better leave and check on the boys before this place becomes crowded.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAywj0WnPpTi
Kendo: “Wasn’t it my turn today?”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAuZpvIiLs7C
Sabrina: “You’re welcome.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAEN3E2CuwDs
Leaving her friend in the bathroom, she waves to her closest friends still struggling to get up. Well, more so Kaoru, who was still half-asleep and needed Aoi and Shiho to practically drag her out.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAZy9hP3epMT
After that, she made her rounds across the lodge, stretching her senses to cover a few yards past the building. Not only to check for the intruders, but to also test herself.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAPII5Cg0tW8
No doubt that will be her training on this trip.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAiGQVgZEmWm
When she does, it becomes once again apparent the class divide. Unlike Class 1-A, her class has far more girls than boys. Only 4 guys in a group of 11 girls.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAzJ2Sl9ifxF
Sure, it was a little awkward at first, but they quickly got over it. Besides, they get some privileges, like the abundance of space in their room.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAX9ZmicRmvg
Sabrina: ‘I’m almost jealous.’
103Please respect copyright.PENANApVJHNP1Dyq
But in the end, she didn’t mind. As long as she got to be close to those she cared for, she could deal with being kicked in the head occasionally by the restless Kaoru.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAW7Bi3hCeui
Before long, she made it to the boys’ side.
103Please respect copyright.PENANA52YfAfcbmK
Sabrina: “Are you all done? It’s almost time to go.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAoG8LCD9D0e
After the sound of groans, she caught a stray thought from Kosei Tsuburaba, the one with the air shield quirk.
103Please respect copyright.PENANA4XB24KqAkC
Kosei: ‘What is she, our mom?’
103Please respect copyright.PENANAEiBBXQFro5
Sabrina: “I heard that, Tsuburaba.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAuJDCPTlAfb
Kosei: “Seriously!?”
103Please respect copyright.PENANA4x0l3rLV99
The sliding doors open to reveal a ready and dressed group of boys.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAxuZiZibJuJ
Neito: “It isn’t quite fair to read our minds without our permission. What would Akashi think about you doing that again?”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAQbyH0o3Enb
A slight twitch of the eyes. Kaoru, her only real weakness. Sabrina has gotten better, but old habits are hard to break.
103Please respect copyright.PENANA5WtJ0MQitf
Sabrina: “Fine, sorry, Tsuburaba.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAdgN3Mm04bD
Kosei: “It’s okay, I know it was an accident.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAmeFT3yaXqX
Sabrina: “Thank you. I mostly came by to make sure Tetsutetsu was awake. As proven by the bus ride, he is a heavy sleeper. Worse than Kaoru even.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAGopABpe80S
Tetsutetsu: “I’m awake! I’m awake!”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAzONadx93jE
Sabrina tilts her head to see Tetsutetsu rubbing his head before yawning.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAKHjz6JJUbH
Neito: “We dealt with it. Shall we go?”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAm4Ic7NE3gl
Sabrina: “Yes.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAtgRuIxZX8O
With the boys collected, Sabrina regrouped with Kendo and the rest of the class. They quickly lined up outside in front of their teacher, Vlad King.
103Please respect copyright.PENANANo3ROE6QQ5
Vlad King: “Good to see you all up. Ready to improve your quirks?”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAG3WrWYFE2R
The class nodded.
103Please respect copyright.PENANASBEv86ipCM
Vlad King: “Good! Class A has already started; let’s get going.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAEU1GLm589u
Without another word, the teacher led his class to the training zone. Whatever the pros had in mind to help them to improve even further, it must be crazy.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAJkgHA62gxb
But nothing could have prepared them for the sight of Class 1-A being practically tortured.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAC7LhdJnAQ7
Sero was unleashing tape until blood started leaking.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAc1ULxJ7B9a
Bakugo was burning his hands in hot water.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAwsXqRqhUvw
Todoroki was sitting in a boiling container, trying to stay cool with his ice.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAAwmtUOYu80
Kirishima was trying to endure several blows from Kiri.
103Please respect copyright.PENANA8C9UZFL0yc
Uraraka was floating around, trying not to hurl.
103Please respect copyright.PENANApO1hCBRoj4
Finally, Kaminari was lighting up the sky with his quirk.
103Please respect copyright.PENANA6A4CxlZGvc
Kaoru: “What the heck!?”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAZ4OPQkUgLb
Shiho: “Brutal, but effective.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAWYpkYM2TwN
Vlad King: “And most of you will be going through similar training. Those whose abilities have allowable upper limits placed on them must raise those limits. Mutants and other composite beings must train their perspective organs and body parts. Then… there are the special ones.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANA3ithSKn9nL
High above was the said special one, hovering in place with his legs crossed. Around him, several dozen rocks rapidly shifted between different materials. Rock to iron, water to ice, sand to glass, and more.
103Please respect copyright.PENANA60GsTZZJoN
Kaoru: “Really makes the ceiling I’m aiming for look literal.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAOUNidEg5a6
Vlad King: “Normally, we adjust the training based on physical growth-”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAQhfDFOwWhY
Aizawa: “But we don’t have the time. Don’t laze around, Class B.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAv0dzSmSNkX
Turning to the new teacher, Kendo voices a concern they all have.
103Please respect copyright.PENANA2aDa7bW998
Kendo: “With us included, we’ve got 30 people. Can six people really handle that many “quirks” at once?”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAXTF0cP3Crn
Aizawa: “That’s why they’re here.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAGvwNmyjW2b
Pixie-Bob: “That’s right! Four minds, one body!”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAQb5YLqavQE
Mandalay: “With sparkling eyes, we rock on.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANA6FM2NSUi3n
Ragdoll: “We’ve come to lend a helping paw!!”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAfiQTmoADIC
Tiger: “Wherever, whenever, we’ll arrive.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANA3orS9DlXaF
Pixie-Bob: “Cute, cat, and stinger!
103Please respect copyright.PENANAUROgfeZV1k
“The Wild, Wild, Pussycats!!!”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAHVmZlfXQdH
The remaining pros on this training camp arrive and do the full version of their signature pose.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAWIsOZg1W15
Ragdoll: “My quirk [Search] allows me to observe and monitor up to 100 people at a time! Their location and weak points too!”
103Please respect copyright.PENANA3d5qg16pI2
Pixie-Bob: “My [Earth Flow] will create a training ground fit for every last one of you!”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAhLFcOLpy3b
Mandalay: “And with my [Telepath], I can advise and instruct multiple people at once.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAjM0MZin0cx
Kaoru: “Wait, you have a psychic-type quirk!?”
103Please respect copyright.PENANA20ZKztSdHS
Mandalay: “Well, close. I can only send information, not receive like Kanto or Midoriya… ”
103Please respect copyright.PENANACq7xg4Gst8
Mandalay: ‘If I could, then maybe… ’
103Please respect copyright.PENANADyqNMChrZO
To divert attention back to the training, Tiger explained his part in this.
103Please respect copyright.PENANA7vXU8VTp7k
Tiger: “I’ll be charged of kicking, punching, and other violent services. I’ll be focusing on those with power augmentation abilities, with one exception.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANALQYeXIdna2
Faster than she expected, Tiger launched himself at Sabrina and delivered a blow to her hand. It was only due to instinct that she could block with a psychic shield.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAPsWWNbzAFy
But the blow was strong enough to send her skidding back a few feet.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAVStjA2zpnk
Kaoru: “Sabrina!”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAUe8v3vJoUo
Before Kaoru could do something foolish, Sabrina held her hand up.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAAVW4CV5ctZ
Sabrina: “I’m fine.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAGJo6p4tTeR
Tiger: “Your power is great, but you lack many options when dealing with physical opponents. As proven by the school festival.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAmfWtXoi72v
Sabrina: “Unneeded. You may be a pro, but I could hold you off or even win if need be.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAOHF6cVQnOr
Tiger: “Perhaps, but can you say the same if there were more than one?”
103Please respect copyright.PENANACs2ACScCIJ
From above!
103Please respect copyright.PENANA90K2XtwfXa
Sabrina used her quirk to pull herself back to avoid a drop kick from Kiri. But that wasn’t all; she had to shield herself from a surprise side punch from Kirishima.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAhmgu0ZMn4p
Sabrina: “I see.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAtHkpGg6QyA
Kaoru: “That’s not fair!”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAm5pD9Dc4Rp
Aizawa: “Hero work isn’t fair. Any weak point will be exploited.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAUzmC9a5e2r
Sabrina: “It’s fine; after all, this isn’t the tournament. Kadabra.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAhTxEhTjCjz
Her mental creation shimmers into existence beside her, ready to battle.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAg9R5WJSU22
But before battle could explode, Kadabra was enveloped in a green shell. The prince descends from above.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAz0r6jK0Exj
Sabrina: “Seriously?”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAd82OWk6uRs
Aizawa: “There is a severe power gap between those with psychic-quirks and those without. So we had to be a bit creative with how we train you past your limits. Part of that is challenging you to not rely on your summon.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANASJow6rOjtG
Izuku: “And the best way to challenge me is to train with Kadabra. He did take Kiri’s ultimate move without much damage.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAEs9EVyp0Gh
Sabrina: “And since I take half the damage Kadabra does and still need to direct him… yes, I suppose this is good training.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANA8hVVdhgFC9
Aoi: “Pretty extreme though.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANA7r4idHPcbL
Vlad King: “Think that’s bad? You’re going to have to teleport around the forest wearing this.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAdGqDXHR9up
Aoi: “Wha-”
103Please respect copyright.PENANADFughqJ1sS
She couldn’t finish the sentence before a heavy backpack was placed on her back. It was heavy enough to drag her to the ground.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAxgFfKzkXsS
Aoi: “Darn it.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANARmg8j3aqVR
Shiho: “Doing good down there?”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAydtX4Kp1Jn
Aoi: “Ugh.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAJOpvnqOBF8
Kaoru: “So what about me and Shiho?”
103Please respect copyright.PENANA350MIMSmuU
Vlad King: “You’ll be fighting Midoriya as well while Sannomiya works with Ragdoll on testing just how much info she can retain and from what distance.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAnfhjc4zxZT
Shiho: “… Alright.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAeeSqCrKZqo
Kaoru: “Fine with me.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAR1rrUgr7WK
With the surprising training tasks set, Vlad King went to the rest of Class B with their assignments. Most of them were already trembling internally from seeing how difficult Sabrina’s match was.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAuuMkM9VKIj
Most of them were taken to their own training area except for Kendo, Monoma, and Tetsutetsu. The two melee fighters joined in on Sabrina’s training while Monoma simply watched, training his copying abilities.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAF9s3Z3VRxL
Sabrina: ‘So I’m surrounded by one pro hero and four students.
103Please respect copyright.PENANABxLOm5MAcH
Kendo: “No hard feelings?”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAypJNGdO6XF
Sabrina: “Of course.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANA1HbEcdE7EH
Tiger: “Now, we’re not going to all fight you at once. This is a training for everyone. You are the primary target, but in truth, this is a battle royale.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANANbPP7qMCR6
Kendo: “So everyone for themselves? Got it.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAIm61kqLp0X
Kiri: “Nh.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAz59NuUnOpy
Kirishima: “Heh, let’s do this.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANACYouV1rOrs
Sabrina takes one last look up at the forming storm clouds where Kadabra and Kaoru join up with Izuku.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAnNREAeO9qP
Sabrina: ‘Great, I have to stretch my senses as well. Kaoru was right; this is unfair.’
103Please respect copyright.PENANApMrxtMoxZA
Tiger: “Ready?”
103Please respect copyright.PENANA15LuXMph5m
The group tenses within the dirt ring created by Pixie-Bob.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAfqoJzadVWN
Tiger: “Begin!”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAhrLyz9VFbd
Sabrina: “Lock!”
103Please respect copyright.PENANA69l8bg13gy
With that moment of peace, Sabrina mentally commands her summon.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAxYO1x7LWzg
Sabrina: “Protect Kaoru!”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAq07rNomCL8
The command was given just in time for Sabrina to shield herself from Kiri’s kick.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAi0vNHnA9Kc
The locks were broken, and so battle was joined.
103Please respect copyright.PENANA7nsExhcIEt
Tetsutetsu: “Kirishima!”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAUbThZzIZzh
Kirishima defended himself against Tetsutetsu’s passionate assault. That was two occupied, but that left three. Using the force of Kiri’s kick, Sabrina spins around and summons her Psi-Whips. Right in time to deter the charging Kendo and Tiger.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAI1DWpiMNt8
Kendo jumped back in avoidance, while Tiger used his quirk to twist around her attack. Again, Sabrina was on the defensive as Tiger slammed into her electric defense. But not for long, as she psychically pushes him back along with Kendo.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAZJ8lULcHsj
But Kiri wouldn’t be pushed back that easily. Blasting off the ground, she crushed Sabrina’s shield with a powerful strike to the gut.
103Please respect copyright.PENANASE9UzCKPyF
Sabrina’s mind went into overdrive as her body was beginning to feel the effects of Kadabra’s beating above.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAMql1ryjSD5
Sabrina: “Tch.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANA1tuPsbR1ps
Thankfully though, Kendo decided to try her luck with Tiger, enlarging her arm to crush him. His physical strength, though, was enough to catch the falling weight.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAWmcTfhTxiH
This left Sabrina with Kiri, the most annoying opponent.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAEAWO6xu5ql
Before she could shock Kiri again, the girl jumped back and quickly went around Sabrina and delivered a decisive blow to the back. Or it would have, if Sabrina didn’t read her mind.
103Please respect copyright.PENANA6hPmIYWuwB
Using telekinesis to move her body faster than she is used to, Sabrina narrowly twisted out of the way. Countering with a lightning palm, flinging Kiri away using psionic force.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAir6VyZM59M
But she would be back after fighting off the shock. This couldn’t con-
103Please respect copyright.PENANAfVlnL2nlzk
A flash of insight, a sixth sense, was all that enabled Sabrina to grab the thrown Kirishima and fling him at the stunned Kiri. The result was both of them on the ground.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAR07TZtO0F1
Kiri: “Rocky… ”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAS79esH5Ipg
Kirishima: “Sorry, Kiri, Tetsu has gotten better.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAQyJa10uait
Tetsutetsu: “Hahaha! How do you like-”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAFBbSCnA109
Tiger buries the laughing boy to the ground, courtesy of a hit over the head.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAdHmnb83Pic
Tiger: “Keep an eye on your surroundings. Like so.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAhNtxA2rKGV
The pro jumps out of the way of a large fist and attempts an overhead kick. But Kendo twists around to knock him away with the sheer wind pressure of her large hands.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAxNMVsZsqCI
Though this leaves her open to Sabrina’s whip, which wraps around her body.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAmQ6ynXIyWV
Kendo: “Shoot!”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAwLQRHHv1qd
If it wasn’t for the charging Kirishima, she would have shocked Kendo unconscious.
103Please respect copyright.PENANA4rxDhyerlk
Sabrina: “Lock.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAcTeScUMxZn
Kirishima: “Ugh.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAT87jCTcDsa
With a small moment won, Sabrina refocuses on Kadabra and-
103Please respect copyright.PENANAW3aTwDjOxq
A small red meteorite falls from heaven, stopping the fighters in their tracks. Emerging out of the dirt cloud was a nexhausted Kaoru on her knees.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAWai23Ytlo4
Sabrina: “K-Kaoru?”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAu2qVfMltMT
Kaoru: “I’m fine! He’s just stronger than I remembered.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANACCDykcz7tZ
Blasting back into the storm above, Sabrina watches her friend reengage Midoriya. It was then that she truly sensed the boy, and the impression poured cold water over her head.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAFvk0nhrzuV
Beneath those glowing green eyes, she sensed something else. It was a small tick at I-Island, after fighting villains, she didn’t give it much thought.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAjmpzuPSupQ
But now?
103Please respect copyright.PENANAUyKrVpCUpT
Sabrina: ‘What… is he?’
103Please respect copyright.PENANARe2C4myQ2r
No time to think about it; arms wrapped around her neck from behind, breaking her focus. Kendo breaks free of the psi-whip in time to reengage Tiger alongside Tetsutetsu.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAQ9x82rvNWk
Kiri: “What now?”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAAoKhvZBTmj
Kirishima was rapidly approaching, but he was being pushed back by constant psychic pressure. However, that wouldn’t hold back for long. His quirk adapts to the force and hardens even further.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAQcKL7mKWNq
Kiri: “Weak up-close.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAvlqm7fhxUs
The girl tightens her hold.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAconkA19M6p
Sabrina: “I… still have a… trick up my sleeve. And maybe… a new one as well.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAnnoT1ikqaj
First, Sabrina grabs the arm of Kiri and uses a psychic ability unique to her. She hasn’t used it since she fought her friend way back.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAB4oAhSrjzS
Rapidly, Kiri begins to shrink.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAsGqCwsWbuG
Kiri: “Huh?”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAdpeM5vt46H
Before long, she was too small to hold Sabrina. Freed, she was ready to meet Kirishima.
103Please respect copyright.PENANARda9eeVikw
Dodging his straight punch, she sharpens the lightning coursing through her open palm and swipes at what she sees as a weak point in his defenses.
103Please respect copyright.PENANA5UqC7FAUTD
Sabrina: “Lightning Blade.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANA1eLFoGLQet
Pain explodes throughout Kirishima’s body, but it was far less than Sabrina expected. A second before she attacked, Kirishima focused all of his defenses on that one spot.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAxQnrvKgWdK
Caught off guard by the sudden resistance, Sabrina wasn’t prepared for-
103Please respect copyright.PENANA5BMeRwhTdv
Kirishima: “Red Counter!”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAVVOrDqjJeL
An explosive punch shatters Sabrina’s defenses and sinks into her stomach. For the first time in years, the girl was hit, and the results were devastating.
103Please respect copyright.PENANA3BoJudqb9s
Her pupils spasm as she dry heaves and collapses to her knees. But she wasn’t the only one; Kirishima stumbles back, kneels, and holds the spot Sabrina hit.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAZCjkSi90J5
Kirishima: “Hehe, you’re not that bad fighting up close.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAVHPAL2d0ZM
Regathering herself, she glares at the boy with glowing red eyes.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAcrPCZzubNI
Kirishima: “Oh no.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANASF2z0R56Q0
The next instant, he was flung far away into the forest. The girl forces her beyond-tired body up and prepares herself once more.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAHlDwF8ANdz
Sabrina: ‘Ugh, I really hate melee combat.’
103Please respect copyright.PENANAnVMCwjIxpt
And it hasn’t even been 10 minutes.
103Please respect copyright.PENANA806TkKYe6M
103Please respect copyright.PENANATSJuCstgWq
Kaoru: ‘The heck happened!?’
103Please respect copyright.PENANAPZeZHmUG6A
The last time she fought Izuku, he wasn’t much of a challenge. Yeah, she lost that fight, but it was close.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAOSCv1Ww3yq
This wasn’t.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAmEUvtxSDOw
It didn’t seem like he was trying. In fact, he seemed like the teacher in this situation.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAbEGSDjFaNX
Her wasted energy and movement. Her lack of precision. The encouragement to push her quirk’s power to the limit and beyond.
103Please respect copyright.PENANASBB66ZeyLu
All of this and more was told to her through telepathy.
103Please respect copyright.PENANA6idqJCRMZu
Kaoru: ‘It’s not bad advice, but I hate hearing it from him! Aren’t we supposed to be on the same level?’
103Please respect copyright.PENANAfjWHYej4Nz
It would be easier if Kadabra fought better. It did basic movements and attacks, enough to protect her from serious harm, but not enough to turn the tide.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAqmgCvBcSxi
Kaoru: ‘Sabrina must really be struggling.’
103Please respect copyright.PENANAo1mzVMQLgf
Izuku: “Focus, Akashi.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAJrTqbOFXR4
Kaoru: “I am!”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAWtekpttZOv
She blows away the storm of cold wind sent her way and glances at Kadabra, who sends razor-sharp blades of psychic power. But they are easily evaded.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAgUgunAe2LN
It was either that or simple telekinesis with that guy.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAnNFHM3WPkL
Izuku: “Kadabra, I know you can do more. You don’t have to wait for Sabrina’s order. You’re a living being as well.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAMXpvOPnrD0
He says nothing, only sends more psycho blades, something Izuku seems to find interesting. If his intense gaze at them when he dodges means anything.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAZqKlY503R0
The boy’s laid-back attitude finally got to the psychic girl.
103Please respect copyright.PENANA2Y4avDi1OT
Kaoru: “How did you get so strong?! Last time, you barely beat me.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAp8QsDMTwbn
The boy looks at her and suddenly turns… sad… then frustrated… then accepting.
103Please respect copyright.PENANArP3nP55KIk
Izuku: “It’s… complicated to explain. It’s not something you can do.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANA49Wt5RT45k
Kaoru: “Huh?!”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAaMb1nqM89r
Izuku: “But… there is another way for you to get stronger. Much stronger. Are you willing to hear me out?”
103Please respect copyright.PENANA1rDvKzoVkP
For some reason, this felt like something that extends past just this training camp. A part of her wants to refuse, but why?
103Please respect copyright.PENANAIxKuxgC1z3
Kaoru: ‘I can at least hear him out. Maybe it can help me catch up.’
103Please respect copyright.PENANAqTGwmX4P1o
The truth of the matter, however, was much more than she expected.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAQ7GlmzRLBr
103Please respect copyright.PENANAsSFpk645NV
Separated from everyone, all by her lonesome in the forest, was Reiko Yanagi.

Her training was simple.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAUnY9u3rUU1
Lifting as many things as possible and trying to lift a fallen tree. All to increase her weight and volume limit. A limit far below the others.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAlxJVNMYxJr
Reiko: “A human body… ”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAZgYYS7Z1Gl
Her quirk, Poltergeist, is basically a worse version of Sabrina and Kaoru’s quirks.
103Please respect copyright.PENANA6KPGNvZsmO
Because of that, she faded into the background more than she already did.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAPSPxIn2Y8y
Reiko: ‘I like ghosts, but I never thought… ’
103Please respect copyright.PENANAnKjUh1KnAn
She shook her head. It wasn’t like her to get jealous. It doesn’t change anything.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAEIPCBTbaPg
All she can do, is keep trying.
103Please respect copyright.PENANATqH7Gjlg1r
But in the end, nothing changed.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAGkBYUmboO6
Time was soon called for lunch, and she made no progress. Sighing, she wipes the sweat off her brow and turns her back to her classmates.
103Please respect copyright.PENANACZ2g7rejfc
103Please respect copyright.PENANAMkgUcxqGOC
Tiger: “Well done. We’ll pick up tomorrow; enjoy the food. If you have the strength to make it.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANABJqgs09L7V
The pro, as expected, was the only one not out of breath. It was a close call, though, when Sabrina started acting like Kaoru and summoning sandstorms.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAuSJHMgHLSo
Speaking off…
103Please respect copyright.PENANApxItN9uWX7
Sabrina: “I almost forgot there were more days of this.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANA1fkESyaPbZ
Kendo: “Don’t remind me.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAaU5TiYWPBa
Sabrina helped Kendo up while Kirishima carried an unconscious Tetsutetsu to the feeding area.
103Please respect copyright.PENANALHoyKgG00X
Kendo: “Um, aren’t you going to change her back?”
103Please respect copyright.PENANA4RTiPaOp6z
Sabrina turns her shoulder to see a small Kiri slumping over.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAViYrZ4h4Pe
Kiri: “Don’t mind. Can change back later. Carry me.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANA4lmukoa99z
Sabrina: “I guess not.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAYicNGjgh5W
Kendo: “Lucky.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAk7FtPKnCAi
When everyone arrived in the food area, what awaited them wasn’t already made meals, but ingredients.
103Please respect copyright.PENANABixfj8R65A
Pixie-Bob: “Yesterday was the last day we’d help you out!!”
103Please respect copyright.PENANA9Exs6LIoSA
Ragdoll: “If you want to eat, get off your butts and make it yourself!! Curry!!”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAURM7aUXNyX
They say while pointing at the ingredients on the two tables.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAzEe9rUIdw1
Everyone: “… Yes… Ma’am… ”
103Please respect copyright.PENANATbkx8Abaku
Ragdoll: “Hahahahaha, almost all of you look terrible! But that doesn’t give you an excuse to do a sloppy job, though!”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAJM55lUDhrQ
Ida: “You’re right… in the case of an emergency, feeding the hungry and providing sustenance to mind and body is an essential part of… providing aid… ”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAayRZISObDI
Turning around to everyone, including Class B, Ida chops his hand.
103Please respect copyright.PENANA7s4shwdaGc
Ida: “They are correct!! Let’s make the world’s best curry!!”
103Please respect copyright.PENANA4mbM35Rk02
In response, many did get the energy to agree completely. For the first time, the two classes worked together to prepare the meal.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAdLMRl3pdvd
Most didn’t have the energy to use their quirks to help cook though. Todoroki did and so provided the fire with a small smile.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAWPVAdYqyFx
Izuku, of course, also had the energy to create a floating line of ingredients. It was honestly a magical sight.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAVmEfjNCmkP
Before long, it was done, and everyone dug in.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAGRlky1VzYz
Kendo: “Not bad.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAm0JJEhPAP7
Aoi: “Anything would be amazing after what I just went through.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAVIF4f9K9vA
Shiho: “I learned secrets I preferred I didn’t. Not to mention the headache.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAVqtFBOYfDK
Sabrina: “I don’t think I can eat after what Kirishima did to me. Ugh. Do you want mine, Kaoru?”
103Please respect copyright.PENANA2UPD2QvvKV
It was then that the friend group noticed the strangely down Kaoru. It was rare for her to simply pick at her food.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAn94AP5FeFA
Sabrina: “Kaoru?”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAROgHpNWGSu
Aoi: “What’s wrong?”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAx9Ml8wGf7y
Kaoru: “Nothing.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAwK0sDZCOQY
Shiho: “Don’t make me read your mind.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAoYZFz7CB5j
She says while opening and closing her hand.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAnFDml2hA5E
Kendo: “Please don’t do that, Sannomiya.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAShzVZY5xvC
Sabrina: “Come on, you can tell us.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANA5CrICq4Te3
What finally got Kaoru to look at her friends was the warmth of Sabrina’s hand on hers. Before a blush could make itself known, she turns away.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAqYp60XNI5q
Kaoru: “It’s… something Midoriya said while we fought.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAqqx9bnrpnQ
Sabrina narrowed her eyes at that while Shiho quietly gripped the wire gun in her pocket.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAW8KIFsu1QB
Aoi: “What did he say?”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAgTFAqPZ15i
Kendo: “I’m pretty sure it wasn’t anything you’re imagining, right?”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAlaCiHRV0zG
Kaoru: “Come on, girls, what he said freaked me out a bit but it was nothing perverse. Seriously!?”
103Please respect copyright.PENANA8Tt3HPm975
Sabrina: “But it did freak you out. What happened?”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAyl8rDq7WkB
Their worries only increased when Kaoru looked at Kendo with trepidation. Before long though, Kaoru regained her confidence and rubbed her head.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAsXCEddaWIs
Kaoru: “Screw it. He said to only ask those involved, but I shouldn’t and probably couldn’t keep it secret from you, class pres.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAybthuqasmk
Kendo: “Oh… this sounds serious.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAvaSxSltZuI
It was.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAWDnDnpFqIp
Kaoru revealed what she knows of Izuku’s quirk and his offer to some of the girls in Class B.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAvBv6hzKwFP
Aoi: “If he didn’t already have two girlfriends, I would suspect this is some sad attempt at a harem.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAe8yKbZiY2X
Shiho: “The fact he asked two boys before us also makes it unlikely.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAyAOWH4qgM2
Aoi: “He could swing that way; who knows.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANANYrDHTxMSf
Kendo: “I don’t know what to say… ”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAZxKlTJ8tpv
Neither did Sabrina. All she could do was look at Izuku with her arms on the table and fingers interlocked.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAz3bVVGvE9B
Sabrina: ‘Was that what I was feeling?’
103Please respect copyright.PENANAvc1AA4dl5H
The temptation to infiltrate his mind and get to the bottom of this simmered beneath. But based on what happened to Shinso, it wouldn’t end well.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAzep167zWoO
Kaoru: “I… kind of want to do it.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAKFjSkXN9fe
The girls whip their heads around to Kaoru, who’s looking down at her uneaten food.
103Please respect copyright.PENANARqogG4z1S5
Aoi: “You can’t be serious.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAOWW7BuOogl
Kaoru: “I am.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAHVNLCuDGu1
Shiho: “Why?”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAXJL7mjZE2s
Kaoru: “Because… you know what happened at Hosu.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAfodWbpBAyL
They nod.
103Please respect copyright.PENANA4ijsqN3i0M
Kaoru: “I… couldn’t save some people. If I were stronger, then I could have.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAkxZsRjoAR3
Aoi: “But-”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAHGDXG93Xpq
Kaoru: “I’m not scared of some pain. If it will make us better heroes, then why refuse?”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAEymOdtbyhx
Sabrina: “We don’t know how it will affect you.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAkuWcmwYEwO
Kaoru: “I won’t die or lose my quirk if that’s what you’re worried about.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAeVvKYxGtG3
Sabrina: “I… don’t want you to get hurt.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAUfLRrQDwti
Kaoru: “Heh, it’s part of being a hero, remember?”
103Please respect copyright.PENANApaZJuQ4tCP
Sabrina: “I still don’t like it. Something feels… off about all of this.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAnLTh0EZad9
Kendo: “I think… we should see if Tokoyami agrees. I know I’m not really involved, but I’m still the class president and your friend. I don’t want you getting involved in something that could endanger you unnecessarily.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAX8ZsX4nc2J
Shiho: “Should we tell the teachers?”
103Please respect copyright.PENANA7YKmaoTLBw
Kaoru: “Not yet. Midoriya hasn’t really done anything bad; he just asked if we would be interested. Speaking of, are you guys… interested?”
103Please respect copyright.PENANA92Xd6SssqX
The three girls thought about the offer. A power increase and evolution of their quirks sounds great. And all they risk is some pain and possible mental scarring.
103Please respect copyright.PENANABm7IlBnwHu
Considering their chosen profession, not too bad. It’s the source that makes it questionable.
103Please respect copyright.PENANA97DuV4oWNU
Midoriya seems like a good guy, but his quirk is anything but normal. What kind of quirk does that? And what if there are secret strings none of them are aware of? Including Midoriya.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAsRtdRwbwzB
Regardless, though, one thing remains the same.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAougQvtze66
Sabrina: “Yes, if you decide to go through it, I will too.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANA20gb3jMJK2
Kaoru: “R-Really?”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAZ4Ak9YDf0Q
Aoi: “Yeah, we’re a package deal.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAszIpHAHaXJ
Shiho: “I won’t lie, I’m a bit curious to see how my quirk can evolve. Maybe it could remove the more… unpleasant parts of it.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANA0xmFfSnOxW
Kaoru: “Thanks girls. Glad to know I won’t be the only going through this if it happens.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAEvXN16hiYL
The class president smiles at the tight bond these four have. Sometimes, she can’t help but feel like the odd fifth wheel.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAATlxCdro4o
Kendo: “Well, if you guys do it and there are no problems, I can ask Yanagi and Tokage. I don’t know about Tokage, but I have a feeling Yanagi will say yes.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAe93TFGFFcd
Sabrina: “Right… her.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANA0ByL4MTyTf
They weren’t blind; they knew the poor girl felt inadequate next to Kaoru and Sabrina. Not much they could do about it, though.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAtZDsVPBXUL
Sabrina: ‘Let’s hope this offer is a blessing and not a curse. If the former, we can all benefit.’
103Please respect copyright.PENANAKbkGh3WLmb
103Please respect copyright.PENANASL0lDFwaHP
Far away, hidden among the cliffs overlooking the now sleeping residents of the lodge, a black portal opens. First through was a fully armored Theo.
103Please respect copyright.PENANA0GpdBwwblg
Behind him emerged an elite squad of villains, four of which were monsters sent by Gyoro Gyoro. An extra guarantee to ensure Izuku dies. The sight of them does unnerve some of the villains, but knowing they are on their side is a bit comforting.
103Please respect copyright.PENANArlbJfpcleW
When they were all assembled, Theo started tapping his feet.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAog1dj1sZB7
Theo: “Where is he?”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAiqr0DN8IPY
Before anyone else can complain, another portal opens up, this one made of black mud. Emerging out of it were Azrael and Kota.
103Please respect copyright.PENANABOUXnqRlC8
Azrael: “Sorry, it took longer than I thought to create distractions for All Might and Tornado. The Blizzard Group has been acting as aides for them both. Anyway, is this everyone?”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAaCSe6ipncJ
Theo: “Yeah, Mr. Compress was even kind enough to break the equipment.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAhICTEpoQNz
Said man gives a bow to both leaders of this squad of villains. Everyone seemed pretty fine with the arrangement, but the sight of what seemed to be a child made one speak up.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAMvKpQuE1zL
Spinner: “Hey, hey!! What’s the meaning of this!? We’re not short on manpower; there is no need to bring some kid along with us!”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAay8Zehoh2X
Instantly, Kota’s hand transformed into something monstrous and took hold of Spinner’s neck.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAG4qFvlzbyu
Spinner: “Arrgh!”
103Please respect copyright.PENANA84xNz5v6po
Kota: “What did you say? You have a problem, you foul liz-”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAyrj1gmOhHn
Theo: “Enough of that, Kota. We will not insult our allies like that.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAWbmQZYF5PV
The boy turns and glares at Theo, but with a nod from Azrael, he lets Spinner go.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAC0lMbOZtvJ
Compress: “Ooh, scary. First, quirk beasts, and now a modified human nomu as a bodyguard. This League of Villains is more impressive than I thought.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAorUF5rtsee
Twice: “Yeah, but like, are… they really necessary?”
103Please respect copyright.PENANADzqny5pxy7
Standing a few feet away from them were the monsters, quirk beasts. These were stronger than the norm; one even looked like a maiko. But the fact she stands near the walking catfish and mass of seaweed says everything.
103Please respect copyright.PENANApAJ6KDAhDP
But it was the other female that really sent shivers through Twice’s back.
103Please respect copyright.PENANArKwdOUVOEq
Theo: “Yes, some of the kids below aren’t pushovers and one of our colleagues really wants one of them dead. But I will be the one to finish him, so don’t go too far, got it?”
103Please respect copyright.PENANA7GcWsRO8ck
The maiko laughs softly while the other two only smile. It was the leader of the monsters that spoke up, the tall and seductive mosquito girl.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAWvz85vhvn3
Mosquito: “Oh, don’t worry. We understand.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAvRtXR6ECaJ
The boy narrows his eyes at the woman before scoffing.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAKOaGCBHwkK
Azrael: “That’s good; that means we can begin setting up for tomorrow. Begin.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANAC77Nm18I9H
As they begin their preparations in the dark, Azrael and Theo turn to the lodge below.
103Please respect copyright.PENANAcjsR6OBA50
Theo: “Look at them, sleeping peacefully. They have no idea the things I’ve cooked up.”
103Please respect copyright.PENANATZpYLL2GBK
Azrael: “And they won’t, not until it’s too late. Tonight will be the last restful sleep they’ll experience.”103Please respect copyright.PENANAB4C2KA2XbO
