Chapter 45
Eventually, Kazuki heard Yamada and Aizawa speaking about how the battle for third place was about to start. Apparently, Midoriya insisted on participating even with his arm broken. No surprises there, really, but Kazuki was surprised that it was being allowed. Ultimately though, that was a problem for the boy himself and the school.
He himself had other things in his mind.
Mainly keeping ...

Soon, Kazuki found himself walking towards the stage once more.
He didn’t feel ready… at all. His short walk with Mineta had helped him keep busy, but the emotions kept drilling a hole in whatever stability he managed to get. No matter what he did, his Quirk continued relentlessly chipping away at his mind.
He took a deep breath in, glancing to the side at Midoriya.
The other boy’s nerv...

“You’ve been doing good work with them,” Sairaorg commented, looking at the training grounds ahead of them while his peerage battled his strike team of a sort. Jeanne, the fallen and Kuroka faced off against the devil peerage and they were giving them a run for their money, by the looks of it. Joshua and Sairaorg were staying ...

Todoroki didn’t say anything as they walked back into the building, which he was grateful for. Kazuki barely noticed when Midoriya and Shinso walked past them. That is, until the former grabbed his arm from behind him. In a moment’s notice, he found himself looking into green, concerned eyes.
“Are… I mean, you… You fought well, Endo,” Midoriya mumbled, apparently having lost his nerve a littl...

Joshua moved through the cafe with a tray on his hand and a smile on his face.
He didn’t go there often and it felt like he did so less and less as time passed. He was often busy and there always seemed to be something to do. His plate was permanently full and things continued stacking on top of it anyway. At tim...

After his group wished him good luck, Kazuki found himself on the way to the stage once more, this time accompanied by his opponent and – maybe – new friend. To his group’s credit, they had also wished Todoroki good luck and they’d meant it. They were cool like that, after all.
They’d also crossed paths with Yaoyorozu and they had exchanged quick congratulations and good luck, one for her and o...

“So, it happened,” Yasaka said with pursed lips and a frown on her face. She didn’t look happy to see that he’d won a fight against another Longinus, it seemed. Not that Joshua blamed her though. He could take a guess about what she was thinking and it was likely along the lines of “why’d you stupidly put yourself in danger like ...

Monoma’s match was being set up, and in the meantime Midoriya had come back to the viewing section.
Nobody seemed very eager to let him live down the “damage” he might have done to the Kaminari bloodline, however. Poor bastard had a very good reason to be awkward at that moment, and Kazuki didn’t let it get to him much. He had bigger shit to worry about and at least he knew this wasn’t too bad....

The purple, flaming wave rushed towards him and he should have been afraid. The air was the one that changed first, at first feeling like when one places their hands too close over a heater but quickly growing to over a campfire and then it just hurt and burned. Joshua didn’t stay to feel that though, simply teleporting away and c...

“Pretty good job there, man,” Mineta commented, sitting beside Kazuki as they looked at the battlefield where Todoroki was going to face Kamakiri. It was nice of the organizers to delay things long enough for participants to reach the stands once more, truly. “Hagakure got a little scared at parts though.”
“She did?” Kazuki asked with a half-smile, turning just in time to see the invisible gi...

The shift in emotions in the immediate surroundings was very easily noticeable even without Kazuki’s sense of them. He could see it all, the way all the participants sagged and even Midnight, off to the side, seemed to slump a little. Fortunately for him, the effect didn’t seem to reach far enough to affect the stands, which he was grateful for. He hadn’t quite managed to test the range of the Apathy, af...

He’d had to reassure the Gen Ed student quite a bit, especially considering that everyone was very obviously looking at th...

Kazuki froze where he stood past the finish line.
Not because he’d won, although that was a pretty shocking thing too. It wasn’t that he didn’t think he could make it, but more like… He’d expected to lose to someone else. He wasn’t the strongest student in his class, or at least he didn’t think so. Just like that, he might not even be stronger than some other class’ strongest either. And ...
