Becoming #1 With Stun-Gun Hero!! - Chapter 106. Mistakes Were Made

I kept speaking to Toga, trying to convince her there was a better kind of love she could have. “You want to love, and act the way you want, so does everyone else. I can’t say that living in society doesn’t have rules for people on the street, and people expect certain actions in the day to day. But that all goes away behind closed doors, for everyone. There was a popular Billy Joel song that said that everyone has a mask for themselves that they wear alone. I think the only thing you need is to find the right man to love. He has to meet a few prerequisites, but if he does then you just have to build love that can last with him. If you have that, then you can be yourself just around him, and him alone. Doesn’t that sound romantic?”

She just gulped while staring at me, she then slowly nodded for me to continue on. “You need a man that is strong to stop you when you get stabby. He needs to be able to sense surprise attacks, to stop you from putting him in the hospital. Those two kind of go hand in hand. Finally he needs to be open to your fetishes. You find someone with all three of those traits, then you can begin to truly love for the long term. I’m sure you could find someone who has a thing for vampires, you could roleplay as that. You want to become that person for sexual gratification, but you could always continue to do that everyday instead of just once. Think about them letting you take their blood, then you going to the store as them, their work as them, and other places.”

She started breathing heavily while smiling and blushing. ‘Just a bit more and if I can help her find the right guy, then I think we can call this a success.’ “Love isn’t supposed to end after a few days, or until you can’t take your urges anymore. I think you want the love I’m talking about, but you don’t know where or how to start. Let me help you.” She then woke up from her stupor and looked at me with a large smile. I smiled back at her calmingly. “I will help you get what you want, I can’t say that you will never have to put your mask back on in public, but I think everyone does that. Just masks talking with masks. But you can put on your lover’s mask instead of your own in public. You may have to live by societal rules in the open, but behind closed doors you can live true to yourself with the only one that matters. Let me help you get what you want.”

She looked at my outstretched hand with a huge smile on her face. She raced towards me and flung herself into my arms. I suddenly felt a chill and held her wrist to stop her from stabbing me. I was about to ask what she was trying to do, but I was interrupted by her laughing and giggling. “Someone strong? Check! Someone who I can’t surprise? Check! Someone open to my fetishes? Double Check!!” I gulped at what she was saying. She then looked up to my scared face, and giggled and laughed some more. “Kaminari… I think I see a great prospect right here!” She yelled while blushing and smiling. I was freaking out in my head. “Oh boy…”

‘What am I gonna do! I wanted her to see how dumb her idea was of joining these guys! Not trying to have her fall in love with me! What am I even gonna do!? The girls are gonna kill me!’ As I was thinking that I heard someone yelling my name. “Denki! Help me!!” I recognized that voice instantly. It was Momo. I looked down at Toga, she seemed to pick up on my plight. “Sorry Toga, but I also have my own problems in love, specifically already having three girls I belong to. I have to go help her.” I then ran off without looking back. I kept running in the direction of the scream on ‘2nd Gear Overdrive’. I had no time to think about battery wastage or starting a fire. I just had to hope the forest was wet enough to be ok, and that I would leave before getting dry brush too warm.

I put on my mask, but not before screaming her name. “MOMO!!!” I screamed while amplifying my voice. I heard her scream back much closer and found her running with Awase from a chainsaw wielding Nomu. It took all of my will to not kill that thing on the spot. I quickly got behind him and electrocuted directly into his neck to paralyze him from the neck down. Luckily that one Nomu with electrical resistance seemed to be a one off. “Momo! Are you ok!?” I screamed while looking at her. She was bleeding and bruised, but could still run. I was really trying not to kill or injure this Nomu in any way. We needed to be able to track it. Momo looked at me with a smile. She rushed to me and hugged me tightly. “I hugged her back with one arm while keeping the other one firmly pressed against Nomu’s neck.

“I’m so glad you’re alright. Are you injured? I have medical supplies. What do you need?” I was just spouting everything that came to my mind all at once. She was just crying and burying herself into me. I looked up at the tired Awase. “Thank you so much for helping her… Just… Thank you.” I said tears welling up in my eyes of her almost dying. ‘I never remembered this in the show. I just remembered them sticking a tracker on this guy, not Momo almost Dying!!’ I just held her tight until the Nomu’s pulses of movement slowed. ‘I think he’s in return mode now.’ “Momo… I need a tracker, Awase I need you to weld it to this thing’s body. We’re gonna find out where they live, and then we are gonna have All Might smash their faces in.” I spoke with rage in my voice that I was trying to conceal, but I failed as they both followed my instructions a little shakily. I carried Momo on my back as the Nomu left.

I calmly went back to my spot with Toga to see she was actually still there. Awase was on guard but I snapped him out of it. “Toga… You’re still here.” I said in a slightly confused voice. She looked up at me and when she saw me she ran over to hug me. She stopped when she saw Momo. She then frowned and looked at me. Momo was confused at what was going on. She just looked back and forth between Toga and I.  I sighed and nodded to Toga. “Yea this is one.” I tried to keep it vague because Awase was still with us. “I’ll still hold up my end, you will just have to find somebody else.”

Awase was completely in the dark on what was going on, but Momo was coming down off of her shock, and was processing what was happening here. Toga then began to smile as if she figured something out. “Can I just make an opening!?” She played with her knife in her hands. “No you can’t just make an opening!! You really are still interested after that last little bomb I dropped!?” She looked at my unbelieving expression and giggled. “Oh of course! You talked me into a different way to love, now you have to take responsibility!” She giggled as Awase was just freaking out. Momo hit me. “What were you doing, while we were in trouble!?” I tried to defend myself, but Toga spoke up first.

“He made me fall in love with him, and explained why he was the best man for me!” She spoke loudly and bluntly. I had to correct her quickly. “No! I just told you what you were doing was stupid and that you could live your life better!” She giggled and continued my sentence. “By having me be in love with you! It’s ok you don’t need to hide it!” She giggled at the chaos she was causing my life with Momo and Awase. We kept walking until Deku came running with Shoji, and Shoto. I quickly asked what was happening. At this point I wasn’t sure if I actually knew what was going on anymore.
