Chapter 277: Being popular is troublesome
As he started his internship. Naturally, his days were divided into two.
One was at school, and the other was at Ryukyu's office.
Unlike the previous internship, this internship was different, and he still had to attend the class. It was impossible for him to skip, considering he lived in the dorm.
Fortunately, his result was perfect.
His result had always been similar to Momo, who also received a perfect score. However, his attendant number was earlier than Momo, so during the test or quiz, he would be on top of her, which frustrated her, so she had always ridden his waist like a cowboy.
In her childhood, she had learned horse riding, so her posture would be better than the majority of people, but it also gave her a better way to use her waist.
Still, while Momo's waist was amazing, Nejire's Quirk was dangerous.
Whenever Nejire was about to lose, she had always used her Quirk, which was a motion wave, giving him an intense pleasure that couldn't be described by words.
Unfortunately, Mineta had evolved, so she had always been under his mercy.
Still, his days didn't change much.
Having a school and also becoming a hero.
This was what he did, but naturally, something had to change, and that was his hero outfit.
Unlike his previous hero outfit, which made him similar to a clown, his current costume was a suit.
Yes, a suit.
It was a maroon suit.
To be honest, he wondered why he wore such an embarrassing costume, and everyone was also excited about such a costume, which made him sigh. However, in the end, he knew that those costumes were useless, especially when his identity was known, so in the end, he changed into a suit.
Except for increasing his physical ability by 30%, there was nothing special about the suit except for making him more handsome.
As of now, his appearance wasn't much different from those of a successful CEO.
Still, it made him more popular, and he was almost in the news every day, which made him speechless.
"You're so popular." Ryukyu sighed. Even now, she could tell that there were many paparazzi who wanted to take pictures of Mineta from outside of her office. Still, she was a bit confused at how Mineta was able to catch all of the paparazzi that had invaded her office secretly.
However, if she asked, he would answer since it was because of his new ability, which he got from Tsuchikawa before.
Trap Manipulation (Expert).
This ability gave him the ability to create a trap, and he also combined it with the ability he got from Tomoko, which was Detection (Expert), which gave him the ability to detect people, including their intent.
Naturally, this also made him able to understand who was the traitor that had been causing the trouble to Yuuei, but he held it since he didn't have evidence. Lastly, he was too lazy to care about this traitor, and it was better to expose him when this guy thought everything was alright, so it would give him greater despair.
Still, the greatest use of those Quirks was for protecting his parents and the people he cared about, but he knew he still needed to be careful.
However, when he thought of this, he didn't realize that even if he had always thought of himself as a god and someone who didn't have a feeling, he still thought about others.
"Isn't it a normal thing?"
"...somehow, your reaction annoys me." Ryukyu sighed, but she knew that it was a normal thing since, after what he had done, it was normal for him to become the center of attention. However, his existence was good, especially when he did his job in Tokyo, which was the most populous city in the country.
His existence brought peace of mind to everyone since no matter what kind of villains he faced, all of them were simply cleaned up by him without causing damage to the surroundings.
After all, unlike All-Might, whose Quirk was similar to a brute force, Mineta's Quirk was a sticky substance, which was perfect for capturing the villain. No matter how powerful they were, no one could escape. Even if they tried to fight, their bodies would be hit by an intense heat, which made them scream and beg for forgiveness.
In other words, as long as he was around, everyone felt that everything was alright.
However, while his existence was perfect, he caused trouble for Endeavor.
Endeavor was about to become the number one hero, but with how active Mineta was, many people's attention was always on him, causing Endeavor to be pressured.
Still, Mineta didn't care since he knew he was about to face trouble.
Nejire doubted his relationship with Ryukyu. When she saw the two, she felt they were closer than a mere mentor and protege. She felt that their relationship was more than that. It was her instinct as a woman that tell her. Ryukyu's eyes also weren't the eyes of a mentor. Instead, it was the eyes of a woman in love. More importantly, she had heard that Ryukyu had broken up with her boyfriend, which made her even more doubt their relationship.
"What's wrong?" Ryukyu asked.
"...nothing." Nejire shook her head.
"Nejire?" Ryukyu looked at Nejire in doubt since she felt that Nejire was different.
Nejire wanted to say something, but Mineta's voice interrupted them.
"Hey, I found a drug again."
"Really?" 2x
The two quickly approached him and saw him holding a bullet filled with something.
However, Mineta frowned since he could tell that this drug was different from the Trigger, which was used to enhance one's Quirk.
"It's different from Trigger."
"Different? Then, what kind of drug is this?" Ryukyu also frowned.
After he defeated someone who ran amok on the street, who also happened to be a member of the gang, he found this strange bullet, which made them confused and also felt uneasy.
The blood-red color of the bullet was clear to their eyes as if telling them something might happen.
Still, while he gave one of the bullets to Ryukyu, so she could investigate it, he also picked the other to keep since he had a feeling this drug might be related to the one that was mentioned by Kyudai.
After he caught the villain, the police came and thanked him since his Quirk made it easier for them to work. However, he shook his head and told them he only did his job. To be honest, the police's reputation wasn't so good after Kamina Ward. They didn't have the ability to take care of the situation in the country even though they had declared that they would do their best to maintain the peace of this country and did nothing except for accepting the villains caught by the heroes.
Still, this was their problem, and it had nothing to do with him since he wanted to do research on this drug, and he also needed to take care of Nejire's suspicious gaze.
However, as they finished their job and returned to their office, they saw an unexpected guest.
"Yo, Ryukyu!"
The familiar rabbit ears appeared before his eyes.
"And Mineta." Mirko smiled, but this smile was rather dangerous.
"......." Nejire and Ryukyu.
