My Hero Academia: Killer Quirk!! - Chapter 99

“Aizawa sensei!!”

Walking into the meeting room, Deku, Kirishima and the others couldn’t help but be shocked when they saw their homeroom teacher mingling with other pro heroes.

Even the big three were slightly surprised as Nejire went over and hugged the dragoon hero Ryukyu. But unlike his classmates and seniors, Aiden bȧrėly blinked at the amount of heroes in the room. In fact, he was analyzing all of them and creating countermeasures in his head in case he ever fought against them.

Mr. Brave was on of the heroes standing in the room, but instead of greeting his work experience mentor like all the other students, Aiden merely nodded at him before he went back to scanning the other heroes.

Not to long later, the pro hero Sir Nighteye called for attention.

Taking center stage, he looked over all the heroes and made a small but noticeable nod.

Moving everyone to a conference-like room, Aiden and the others took a seat around the table as a a blue skinned girl with a clear visor on her face started explaining the reason the heroes were all called to such a grandiose meeting.

“Ahem, I thank you all for being able to make it here today. Some of you may or may not know who I am but I am a sidekick working under the guidance of Sir Nighteye and his agency. Now that all the introductions are out of the way, we can start talking about why we have all convened here today. Approximately 2 weeks ago, we of the Nighteye office had started conduction a private investigation into a small time villain organization calling themselves the Eight Precepts of Death.”

‘What a gaudy name.’

“What provoked such an investigation?” One of the pro heroes spoke up.

While Aiden was interested in stopping any villains he came across, the current conversation didn’t really interest him much. In fact, the only reason he was here was because Mr. Brave told him to meet him here today. He guessed that Fat Gum must have given the same instructions to Kirishima and Tamaki.

“Oi oi! Why are these UA brats here for? They’ll hold back the conversation when we start talking about the darker side of things.”

Hearing such a statement, Aiden opened his eyes slightly to look at the individual who had just spoken such nonsense.

‘Rock Lock huh?’

Recognizing the hero who had just spoken, Aiden had to hold himself back from laughing. For someone with a quirk like Rock Lock to say that Aiden/UA would hold the conversation back was truly amusing. While he didn’t have a high opinion of Deku and the others from his class when it came to hero and villain work, he knew that the big three were more than capable of handling themselves.

After a bit of defending from fat gum, the conversation eventually moved on to a topic that caught Aiden’s interest.

“A medicine that removes quirks?”

Knowing that it was his time to speak up, Aizawa took to the stage. “It seems to work different from my quirk.”

“Different?”

“Yeah.” He nodded and went on to explain. “To put it simply, my quirk allows me to temporarily halt the activation of a quirk, but from what we know about what happened to Amajiki, his quirk wasn’t halted. No, for a small amount of time it was completely-

“Deactivated.” Aiden spoke up and called attention to himself.

“Yeah.” Aizawa nodded.

“After taking Tamaki to the hospital, we discovered that his body showed no other abnormalities besides the fact that his quirk was slightly damaged. But thankfully enough, it seems like the effects were quite weak and Tamaki’s body was able to naturally recover to its previous state.”

Sitting in silence, the heroes and the students all listened to Fat Gum’s report.

“Unfortunately, the guy who fired the gun and put Tamaki in that state is refusing to say anything about where he got it and who from. Even the gun itself is in pieces and most of our leads were duds. However, thanks to Kirishima here using his body to protect the citizens of our city, we were able to procure a single bullet with all the contents of the drug still inside.”

It was at times like these that Aiden wished that he could use his knowledge of torture to extract the information from the criminal. Give him 20 minutes and he’d have the guy telling him his deepest darkest secrets let alone the information about quirk erasing bullets and their supplier.

Continuing on, Fat Gum took a deep breath before speaking his next words.

“After examining the contents of the bullet… We’ve made a sickening discovery… What we previously thought we’re chemical drugs used to erase someones quirk, were actually the cells and blood taken from a human.”

—

After ŀȧpsing into a momentary silence, Sir Nighteye suddenly spoke up. “The leader of the Eight Precepts of death Chisaki… has a daughter.”

Without no rhyme or reason, a sickening feeling suddenly came over Aiden as Sir Nighteye continued.

“She has no birth registration and the details about her are unknown.”

‘No…’

“When Midoriya and Togata encountered the two, she had a great number of bandages wrapped around her arms and legs.”

‘Don’t say it!’

“It seems that… he’s using his own daughter’s body to make those bullets.”

‘…’

Sitting in silence, Aiden’s eyes seem to lose focus as the only sound he could hear was his own heartbeat.

“Deku.” He called out in a voice so cold that it caused everyone in the room to feel a chill.

“Chisaki’s daughter… How old did she look?”

Seeing the dark look in his eyes, Deku bȧrėly mattered to stutter out a word. “S-seven.”

‘A child…’

Remembering back to the time he was forced to watch his parents die, Aiden felt a darkness inside of himself stirring. Trying to calm himself down, he was about to utilize a breathing technique until he recalled the crying face of Kouta when he faced Muscular.

Why was he getting worked up?

Why was he letting his emotions influence him?

If the members of Dark Star saw him now, there’d be no doubt in his mind that they’d chastise him.

“I see…” He said and abruptly got up.

‘I should just treat this problem like every other problem I’ve encountered.’

“C-Cross san.” Nejire stuttered after seeing him stand up.

Breathing out an audible sigh, he no longer looked at these heroes and left the room.

While they were sitting there talking about how to defeat Chisaki, a small child was out there terrified out of her mind and probably traumatized.

“Heroes that wait for an opportunity to attack while people are getting hurt in front of their eyes… are not heroes that should be looked up to.”
