Chapter 121: Back to School (3)

—

Izuku Midoriya was pissed at Neji but he didn't bother showing it on his face.

A part of him was scared.

He had never felt scared after gaining his Astral Form, but now there was someone beside All for One who could harm him even in that state.

Hado Neji, the kid who's been ruining all his plans.

Izuku wanted to kill Neji, torture him for days because not only had he ruined his plans, but that kid had also insulted and harmed Kacchan. Only Izuku himself was allowed to do that…!

He rapidly shook his head, clearing those thoughts since he didn't want to break his arrogant persona here in the classroom.

Instead, he focused on the words Aizawa was saying.

After the last round, the students had returned to the classroom for their last class, where Aizawa was talking about their midterm exam.

"Midterm is in 2 months, and after that it's summertime." He spoke slowly. "But, of course, we can't just give you a whole month of vacation. So…"

He trailed off as some students gasped. "Don't tell me…"

"We will be going to the Summer Camp." Aizawa finished his sentence.

The students cheered aloud.

They might have lost a fellow student, but they were still teenagers. They are bound to return back to their normal lives without any hiccups.

"But!" Aizawa interrupted their cheer. "Anyone who doesn't pass the midterm, are not ineligible to participate in this summer camp."

Kirishima from the front seat cheered. "Be sure to study hard guys!"

Most people cheered too, but Izuku Midoriya only hid a smile.

Just 2 more months before Neji would die by his hands… and Kacchan and All Might would be his.

Ryuko sat down on the couch, in front of Rumi, who placed two cans of coke on a table between them.

"Thanks for coming on such short notice," Rumi said as she leaned back with one of the coke in her hand. "I require some major help."

"I guessed that." Ryuko nodded as she picked up the other coke. "You don't usually call me here without any solid reason."

Rumi gulped from the can and released a breath. "Yeah… the reason is pretty strong this time around too."

She continued with a sigh. "You know Neji was living with me for a week, right? We... might have done something unspeakable."

"...Rumi?"

Ryuko blinked, an expression of worry on her face. Did the two of them accidentally murder a villain? Neji's quirk is very destructive, and even though he was strong, a teenager can lose control amidst a life-threatening battle.

Ryuko realised this must be a serious matter. So she put down the coke and nodded reassuringly. "Don't worry, speak your mind in detail."

With another soft sigh, Rumi parted her lips.

…

"To sum it up, we fucked and now I don't know what to do now." Rumi finished after a long speech. "Do you… have any idea on what I should do from now on?"

Ryuko, who's been listening to Rumi talk with her mouth gradually widening until now, simply stared at the bunny with eyes filled with disbelief.

"You… you're joking, right?" She finally asked. But Rumi slowly shook her head, and as if it was a bullet hitting Ryuko, she jumped up. "Rumi, are you out of your mind?! You did what with a kid?! More so someone who's already in a relationship! Where are your responsibilities as an adult?!"

"..."

"Let's not talk about what would happen if this news gets out to the public, that's another nightmare, but I am just baffled how you took the initiative! Teenagers are hot-blooded, they'd of course try to flirt with you. You're a beautiful woman! But that doesn't mean you should accept their flirting and sleep with him!" Ryuko yelled out. "I can't believe this i-isn't a joke! Now you're asking me for advice on how you should manage with his girlfriend?!"

"Hey!" Rumi interrupted her. "Don't yell on me! I am just asking you for advice because you're the only person I can trust with this!"

"..." Ryuko's open mouth closed as she started at Rumi. After a long moment, she dropped to the couch again and covered her face with her hands, sighing.

'She's right… She shared this with me because she trusts me.' Ryuko thought, a tinge of pain in her heart. 'But…'

She wouldn't have yelled at Rumi if the guy she did this with was someone else… but it was Neji.

Was she feeling jealous? If so, didn't that make her a pathetic hypocrite?

'Why did he…' Why did Neji do that? 'He has a girlfriend, how could he touch another girl?'

Momo's a really nice girl, and she loved Neji a lot. Ryuko could tell even from the short time they spent together. How could Neji have cheated on that girl...?

"Rumi," Ryuko sighed and rubbed her temple. "I don't get one thing. Why are you asking for advice on how to manage things with his girlfriend? My point is, he has a girlfriend. Yet he cheated on her with you... Don't get me wrong, I know Neji is a good kid, I don't think as a man he's worth sharing if he is cheating on a girl like Momo."

"..."

"So tell me, why are you even considering this relationship? Why not just forget about him?" Ryuko said. "If it's because he took your virginity then stop worrying. This is not the age and day where people care about virgin or non-virgin."

Ryuko was angry. She was angry at that kid for doing this to Momo. Cheating is never a thing that should be forgiven.

...Though she wouldn't admit it, she was a bit envious of Rumi too. As a Dragon, Ryuko liked strong men. One of the reasons why she never slept with her previous boyfriends was because they were mostly civilians.

Even the one or two heroes she dated were weaker than her. Though she didn't like to admit it, since she hated this thought process of hers, weak men didn't suit her appetite.

Knowing how strong Neji was, Ryuko felt a strange charm in the idea of being conquered by him, a man much stronger than her. It's just a bonus if he had other partners, because ultimately, girls will naturally gather around a true dragon, even if he didn't have a dragon quirk.

Of course, these were silly thoughts and we're not professional and so Ryuko would never admit it, even to Rumi. She was simply angry and disappointed at Neji for his actions. Because he knew, even though Rumi should be the one to blame because she was an adult, Rumi wasn't the type to take initiative. But since she did exactly that, there must be some higher picture behind all this.

"Well…" Rumi chewed on her lips, looking troubled as her chocolate cheeks slowly became red. "It might sound awful because I was just until recently a virgin, but… he is irresistible, I-I can't think of any other man. He's just so good… I would have wanted to have him all for myself if possible, but he loves his girlfriend and if I tried to steal him from her, he would just see me like a slut… I don't want that, so I need to make some compromise."

Rumi kept talking, explaining like a little girl in love how good Neji was, and even going into some details of their mature activities as Ryuko's eyes slowly widened, shaking on her sockets, with her face flushing bright red.

'Oh my god… how good is he to make Rumi like this?'

When classes finally ended, Neji and Momo walked to the parking lot where Nejire was waiting with Kimi.

Kurai was there too, sitting above Kimi's head on her paws, looking down on the world with raised head.

Neji and Momo waved their hands at them and walked closer.

"Neji! Otouto!" Nejire ran at him "You're going to take Kimi inside that pocket dimension or whatever? Why didn't you tell me about it before!?" She jumped and wrapped her arms around his neck, her nose touching his and her wide eyes staring at his. "I want to go too! Take me!"

Which is why he hadn't told her about it before to begin with.

Neji put his hand on her waist, making sure it didn't look too intimate from the outside as he came up with an excuse.

"Uh, I can only take three people with me. Kurai and Kimu are facing the slots. Kurai is unreplaceable, and Kimi is… well, we are going to look for a curse for her Hemophobia." He said. "You want to ruin it for her?"

"..." Nejire pouted and cancelled the hug. "Just say you won't take me in, no need for playing around with words. Hmph, fine, just don't be late!"

Saying so, she took Momo by her arms. "Anyway, drop me home Momo~ Let's go!"

She pulled Momo, who waved at Neji, and went to Momo's car in the far.

Neji was left with Kurai and Kimi, standing in front of his car as he scratched his chin.

While he was out with Rumi, he told Kurai to finish the experiment: "Can a living being beside gamer enter a dungeon if they were put inside the inventory in the outside world, and taken out in the dungeon world?"

Kurai did so, by visiting the dungeon located in a park around Neji's home. That was the same park where Neji found his first dungeon. Kurai had grabbed a mouse, made it fall unconscious, then put it in her [Limited Inventory], which was a nerfed version of Neji's own, and finally took it out on the other side.

Meaning the experiment was successful, and so, it should also work on Kimi.

"Kurai," Neji widened his arms, where the cat jumped onto Kimi's head.

"Papa! What is it?"

"Cast [Stealth] around us. Make sure to pour enough mana, since there are quite a few people around us."

"Okay!"

Kurai took a deep breath and said `Stealth!? just as the Gamer System automatically cast it on Kurai and Kimi.

Kimi looked around, feeling a sudden lack of attention from the people around and blinked.

"Ohh… this feels kind of strange."

"It does, but enough of that." Neji pulled her attention and turned. "Follow me, we don't have much time on our hands!"

Momo has prepared the necessary excuses with the club she made if Neji and Kimi were to be spotted, but that didn't mean they shouldn't be careful.

Stealth didn't mean invisible, after all.

So, they ran, carefully and soundlessly, before they reached the gate that Kimi couldn't see.

Neji put her to sleep by his acupuncture techniques, and then put her inside his inventory.

After that… he slowly walked inside the golden gate.
