Chapter 174 - Chapter 17: 'Mission'

The biggest reason Lancer was able to sneak into the Yaoyorozu's house was that her house was simply too big. Although the Yaoyorozu family was rich, the real blockade was only in certain places, and these defensive measures for ordinary people naturally couldn't stop a person like Lancer. As for the bodyguards with 'detection' abilities? Obviously, there weren't enough of them.

This was also the reason why Lancer could sneak into the Yaoyorozu's house but not into 'U.A.'. After all, U.A.'s security team was simply insane. With various 'detection' quirks such as 'vision,' 'hearing,' and 'mental perception,' Lancer had no idea how to hide from them. The biggest characteristic of a 'quirk' was that everyone's was different.

But this time, he was lucky, and he wasn't discovered at all along the way.

"Everyone, come over. Our class today will be held here..."

At the same time, Shota Aizawa, who was the teacher leading the group this time, also unconsciously touched his chin.

Why was this? It was simple. The frostbite he got before made him unconsciously touch his chin sometimes. But from a certain perspective, he was still better off. Although Midnight's injury was lighter than his, the red bruise on her neck forced her to wear a choker to hide it. After all, the so-called 'R18 Hero' was just a publicity slogan, and she didn't want to be misunderstood for doing something strange.

Although there was nothing strange about her 'setting', and it even caused a wave of fervent cheers in certain small circles, she herself seemed to be ashamed of it and said that the choker would never be taken off unless she could get revenge!

But at this time, he felt a tingling sensation around his lips.

'Is it an illusion? All Might said he would come later, so nothing should go wrong, right?'

After shaking his head, he stopped thinking about it. After all, the battle that night had already proven one thing, which was that he probably couldn't pose any threat to that man, which made his mood a little low recently, and he was even a little suspicious. There was no doubt that this time he also thought that it was just his 'psychological effect' at work.

But he didn't notice that when the first 'U.A.' student walked into the hall, the school bus that had already stopped trembled slightly.

As for the 'culprit'? Naturally, it was Lancer.

Lancer, who was lying on the roof of the bus at this time, trembled with excitement when he saw a new mission appear on that 'familiar' panel.

「Mission: Nameless Hero/Villain」

「Mission requirements: Protect the 22 U.A. students and teachers / Kill or abduct the 22 U.A. students and teachers」

「Mission reward: Depends on the completion of the mission」

It seemed that his 'guess' was right!

As for which one to choose? Did he even need to ask?

Lancer was not a hero, but he was not a thug either.

He was just a lancer. The decisions he made could go against everything, but they would not go against his heart.

Among these 22 people were the disciples of his 'benefactor' and a girl who was a little tsundere but had also taken him in. The answer was already decided.

At this time, the people inside the building had no idea that they had been caught in a destined attack. Their faces were full of surprise as they looked at the 'rescue hero, No. 13', who was wearing a space suit.

Of course, there were also many looks of admiration mixed in with the surprise.

Unlike All Might, who was the 'Symbol of Peace', Shota Aizawa, who acted secretly, and Midnight, who was in charge of tactical support, No. 13 was a Pro Hero who specialized in natural disaster relief, and his quirk was the very BUG-like 'Black Hole'.

That's right, 'Black Hole'!

Just by hearing the name, you know how BUG-like it is. In theory, it can completely disintegrate everything it sucks in. It can be said that in terms of destructive power alone, it is one of the best of all 'quirks'. But it also came with a price. For example, when using it, it was impossible to distinguish between friend and foe because it was difficult to control, so if it was used in a battle, it would undoubtedly cause major casualties. So he chose to become a Pro Hero who specialized in 'disaster relief'.

"I don't think I need to say much about my quirk. I think everyone should know that it is a 'black hole' that can crush everything it sucks in. It is precisely because of it that I can be active in disaster relief sites all over the country and even the world. But I think everyone should not have forgotten one thing, right? That 'humans' themselves are also 'objects', which means that my ability can also easily kill humans!"

As a nationally renowned Pro Hero, No. 13's voice sounded incredibly gentle, and he acted very gentlemanly. But when he said the words 'kill humans', everyone couldn't help but swallow their saliva. After all, most of them joined U.A. with the simple and pure desire to 'become a hero'. Now that they suddenly heard such a 'cruel' topic, they inevitably felt a little uncomfortable.

Fortunately, No. 13's words did not stop there.

"In Shota Aizawa-senpai's class, I think everyone should have learned about their own bodies, and in All Might-sensei's human-to-human training class, everyone should have learned about their own abilities. I think many of you here, just like me, have abilities that could accidentally harm others. So I hope to use this class to let everyone understand that the existence of 'quirks' is not just for fighting and harming others, but also for protecting everyone!"

No. 13's voice sounded a little muffled because of the 'space suit' he was wearing, but there was no doubt that his undulating voice re-ignited the passion of the students who had been silent because of their own quirks.

"That's all I wanted to say today. Okay, now let me give you a tour..."

"Crack~!"

No. 13's words were not finished when the surrounding lights suddenly went out, and the fountain in the distance also suddenly stopped.

An ominous feeling suddenly appeared in Shota Aizawa's mind.

Then, a black mist could be seen spreading in the distance, and at the same time, a lot of people in bizarre costumes and wearing strange masks appeared from the black mist.

"Huh? Is this another surprise attack like in the previous test?"

Shota Aizawa didn't even have time to figure out which student was complaining. He almost shouted to stop the other party's complaint as soon as he heard it.

"Quiet! Everyone, gather together. This is not a test! These guys are 'villains'!"

Shota Aizawa's words immediately silenced the students who had been in a bit of a commotion.

'Villains? No way?'

This thought appeared in everyone's minds almost at the same time, but looking at Shota Aizawa, who was already wearing his 'special combat glasses', it was only then that they knew that all of this was real...
