Gamer In My Hero Academia - Chapter 12 Revealed..
I had been sitting in an empty room for over half an hour now. All Might had told me to wait here while he made sure that all the press and other heroes were okay.
I looked at the clock, for the umpteenth time.
“Screw it I can’t wait anymore”.
I pulled up my status and my eyes widened at the changes.

Regardless of being organic or inorganic, it reads into the primary factor of death in ‘living’ things and visualizes it as a phenomenon that can be interfered with. The world observed from the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception is a landscape of endings filled with ‘lines of death’, and a proper mental structure would have difficulties in daily life while facing this. Cannot be leveled up.
Mystic Eyes!
“Holy sh*t!”.
I couldn’t not say anything. These were without a doubt the strongest mystic eyes in the entire Type Moon universe. Using them, Shiki Tohno would of been able to defeat Arcueid if she didn’t possess the ability to create a completely new body.
It was the antithesis of regeneration quirks.
I couldn’t help but smile. But that was when the door opened and several people came in.
I recognized all of them. All the U.A teachers, Nezu, Naomasa Tsukauchi, Mt Lady, Kamui Wood, Death Arms and even Gran Torino had appeared. The last one to come in was a tall, scraggly man with dirty blonde hair who couldn’t stop coughing.
“Now that we’re all here we can begin”, said Naomasa sitting down in the only other chair in the room.
“Sure, what do you want to know?”.
Taking out a file and opening it, Naomasa, slid it across the table, stopping directly in front of me.
“We want to know how a normal kid without any sort of quirk managed to summon and kill a beast only supposed to have been a thing of legends”, he said leaning back into his chair.
The file was my own. And was the report the doctor gave when he diagnosed the former owner of this body as ‘quirkless’.
I closed it and looked at everybody in the room, “It’s a long one, do you have a while?”.
No-one responded.
“Okay then… but let me ask you a question”.
Nezu spoke up, “What is it? As long as it isn’t personal I’m sure all of us can answer?”
Everyone nodded. Since no-one had any qualms with it I asked, “Do you believe that you are the first ‘Heroes’ to walk this Earth?”.
Midnight stepped forward, “Are you talking about before quirks?”.
“Yes”.
“Depends on your definition of hero”.
“A man or woman who achieved amazing things in their lifetime. Who influenced people and their way of living for the better. They inspired others to live like them. They were symbols, icons. Representing all the ‘good’ in the world.”.
Everybody in the room seemed to be a little prouder after I said this.
“Do you?”.
“Yes. Before quirks Heroes were limited to brave people that helped others in things like car crashes or burning buildings. They Heroes just weren’t possible”, said Death Arms.
I glared at him fore a second before looking back at Naomasa.
“So what if I were to say that you’re wrong? That the first Hero was a King that walked the Earth over 4000 years ago?”.
Death Arms retorted, “I’d say you were a liar kid. Who’d believe that type of stuff. One where Heroes battle slay dragons and save princesses. That’s all fairy tale stuff”.
“Anymore ridiculous than what you saw today?”. I smile.
The pressure in the room grew heavy. Aizawa looked at me before saying, “Kagami. What are you trying to say? That everything we know today as myths is-“.
“Is true. A man by the name of Heracles did slay a Hydra. A woman by the name of Artoria Pendragon really did pull a sword out of a stone. A man from by the name of Siegfried really did slay the dragon Fafnir. Minamoto-no-Raikou did kill Shuten Douji of Mt Ooe. All of it is real”.
“And? These happened hundreds if not thousands of years ago. Why is it important?”.
“Because, while your correct that I do not possess a quirk, the powers I use and the abilities I possess… all derive from these Heroes”.
Everyone narrowed their eyes. The idea that everything from mythology, all the wonderous myths and the awe inspiring legends could be true.
“Were they quirks?”, asked the tall, scraggly man with dirty blonde hair.
I looked at him and said, “No. It was all pure physical ability”.
“What about Gods? Did they exist?”.
“Yes. But most of them have died by now. Faith is what kept them strong. In this age were people don’t pray to them it is very hard for a God to keep their divinity”.
Mt Lady laughed wryly, “How powerful were they?”.
“Depending on the Hero, I could definitely say that most could kill All Might, but not defeat him”.
“That’s impossible! It’s All Might! He’s-“.
“The greatest Hero in the world? That’s what they said about them”.
Every single on of them looked down. Everything I said distorted their view of the world. Everything they knew, about quirks, history and their morality as well. Most Heroes do the job for money, yet you never heard King Arthur asking for money after repelling the Vikings.
“So what makes you so special? Why can you do the same things they can. Are you-“.
I chuckle slightly, “No I’m not descended from a God. But believe it or not, I can’t tell you why this happened to me. Me of all people”.
“Did anything happen to you? Anything in particular?”.
‘The hard parts over I thought’. I was pulling all this sh*t out my ass. It was a mixture of the origins of Heroes in the Type Moon universe but only applying to this one. Gods? Wait until they heard about Phantasm Beasts, Divine Spirits and True Ancestors and then they’ll have something to get a headache about.
“The only thing that happened to me was the dreams that started happening just before I turned 15”.
Everyone perked up.
“I dreamed every night for an entire month of wielding the sword. 30 days. One the 31st I dreamed I dreamed of killing people in the Battle of Toba-Fushimi and only then realized I was experiencing the life of Okita Souji, captain of the First Unit of the Shinsengumi.
When I woke up I tried to execute the same skills and abilities that he possessed and found out that I could instantly move from one location to the other. It was a combination of pure strength mixed in with a high level instant movement technique. That was what I used to evade your attacks during the Quirk Assessment”.
All the U.A teachers nodded and explained to the other Heroes what had happened before the fight with the Hydra.
“But there was one other thing I found out”.
“Was it your ability to transform into these Heroes?”, asked Naomasa.
I nodded, “When practicing the sword technique from Okita’s I found out if I got close enough to the real thing my body would transform and become a vessel for the Hero. I literally become them”.
“What about the hydra, and the hippogriff? How did you summon those?”.
“When my body turns into a vessel, most of the time the Hero is dormant, however older legends have different iterations of their legends”.
“Like Heracles and Alcides?”, asked Midnight.
I nodded, “Yes. Heracles was the demi-god son of the King of Gods, Zeus and was given Twelve Lives for each Labor he completed. Alcides on the other hand, rejected his father’s divinity and hated the Gods. He completed the twelve labors and was given a power for each on he completed.
I can materialize their power. The crystallization of their legend”.
Naomasa nodded as he wrote something down on his notepad.
“I have to ask, how many Heroes lives have you experienced? I mean, with the different abilities you showed today, you must of experienced at least 4”, asked Mt Lady. She smiled at me remembering when I blocked the acid with my shield.
“I’ve experienced 7. Usually they only last a month before changing to the next Hero”.
Nezu asked, “Who have you experienced? You don’t have to ask I’m just wondering”.
I smile and say, “It’s fine. So far I’ve experienced, Okita Souji; Captain of the First Unit of the Shinsengumi, Alcides; the iteration of Heracles that threw away his divinity,
Astolfo; one of the twelve knights or Charlemagne, Aias; one of the Heroes of Troy; Scathach; an immortal witch and Queen of the Land of Shadows; Karna; hero from the ancient epic poem from India, “Mahabharata and and an unnamed woman who could see death.
Would you like me to show you?”.
No-one responded causing me to smile. Everyone in the room was Japanese and had only heard of Okita Souji and Heracles. Midnight had heard of all of them but even she couldn’t say that she knew anything about them.
“Got it. Since this is an incident involving a school Principal Nezu. I’ll leave it up to your discretion on how to handle this incident”. Said Naomasa giving everyone in the room a polite nod.
The furry white animal gave a salute, “Leave it to me Detective Naomasa. I’ll make sure he is properly punished for it”.
The detective gave everyone a polite nod and left the room. Everyone’s attention was back on me now.
“Now then, how do you believe you should be punished, Kagami? You did, although under the influence, attack a member of staff and summon a mythical creature that could of potentially harmed many of my students. How do you plead?”.
The little white, mouse-creature never looked scarier.
I gulped, “Not guilty?”.
