Living as a Mineta is hard Chapter 317 Harder (Patreon)

After the winter break, everyone's power had grown into something that they would have never expected in the past. All of them had become stronger and more confident. The robots, which caused them trouble in the beginning, were slaughtered easily. They felt like they were standing above the world.

However, even if they were all confident in front of Mineta, they had to be humble.

After all, no one doubted that the brightest star in the country now was Mineta.

If there was someone who could catch after them, while they couldn't see that possibility currently, it would be Todoroki and Bakugou since the two had shown a growth that no one expected. With Mineta as their target, the two worked harder than anyone. No, they were forced to do so. Yet, they didn't complain since the more they knew him, the more they felt helpless.

Mineta was strong.

So strong that they were afraid that they might not be able to chase him in this life.

However, they were all young, so it would be impossible for them to give up so easily. Still, somehow they could also feel related to Endeavor. After all, similar to them, Endeavour had always tried to chase after All-Might, so was this how he felt before?

While Todoroki felt conflicted, he could tell that his father was working hard in a place that he didn't see.

As for Bakugou, he knew that he was already at the bottom. He was at the lowest place of his life. His body was already covered in mud, so it didn't matter if he became even dirtier. However, his eyes still showed defiance. It was impossible for him to satisfy with the status quo, so as long as Mineta showed an opening, he would take him down and become the number one hero.

Without a doubt, everyone in Class 1-A could feel the progress of Bakugou and Todoroki, especially when Mineta openly praised them.

Still, this praise made Todoroki vigilant since he wondered whether Mineta was trying to get into his good side, so he could become even closer to his big sister.

No way!

As long as Todoroki was alive, he would definitely try to stop this bastard from getting closer to his big sister!

As for Bakugou, he thought that the world was peaceful.

Still, while everyone was okay since they knew the difference between them, Midoriya couldn't accept it for a while. Leaving Mineta aside, he was dumbfounded when he found out that Bakugou and Todoroki had moved so far away to a place that he had never thought.

'Wait! Don't leave me!'

Deep in his heart, an image that resembled Midoriya during childhood emerged as he begged them to stay and not to leave them. However, it was impossible. Still, to be honest, he had to say he was quite disappointed with his growth since, unlike the three of them whose name was so loud, his name wasn't loud, and not many people knew him.

Even now, many of those classmates that Midoriya had never looked into had become even more famous than him.

Under this dilemma and anxiety, several voices suddenly emerged in his mind. When they talked, he also started to calm down and showed a resolved expression. They might have been leaving him now, but soon, he was going to chase after them, and he would definitely become the number one hero.

Yet, Midoriya didn't know whether Todoroki and Bakugou had ever looked at him.

As for Mineta? His mind had already looked into a place that one would never think of. Still, he didn't expect that the day he would become a god would be so soon.

The anticipation grew inside his heart, and he knew that the time to create the perfect world was close.

Yet, unfortunately, he couldn't share this happiness with anyone and hid this feeling inside his heart, closed, blocked, so until the time came, everything went smoothly.

Still, as of now, no one in this world could stop anymore.

On the other hand, his other persona was ready to follow through on the plan which he had thought about for so long.

Failure wasn't an option, and only victory was something he sought.

Still, Mineta saw that Midoriya had grown up slightly.

Was it because of the previous generations of One-For-All?

Probably, but even so, that power was limited.

Mineta had learned from All-Might about all the abilities of One-For-All, but All-Might only used some of them. Still, he could tell the One-For-All seemed to be different on Midoriya's hands since it seemed like it was alive.

This was how he felt, but he decided to keep quiet.

While they continued to train as usual, he was called by Nejire, who took care of Eri. Watching Nejire, who tenderly and warmly held Eri in her arms, he thought that she could become a good mother.

"What's wrong?"

"I am not sure... she is suddenly..." Nejire told him that Eri suddenly cried.

Mineta looked at Eri's horn, which had grown substantially. He knew that her Quirk grew, and naturally, it was accompanied by pain. He caressed the horn gently as he coaxed and sang some songs for her.

Aizawa was also on his side, using his Quirk.

With the combination of the two, Eri calmed down and fell asleep in Nejire's arms.

They sighed in relief before they put their attention on Mineta.

"Your voice is really great..." Nejire smiled kindly. "Sing me a lullaby next time."

"Even if I don't sing, you will sleep well, right?"

"........." Nejire blushed and hit Mineta with puffed cheeks.

"..........." Mirio, Tamaki, and Aizawa.

The three didn't know what they meant, but they decided to ignore it.

Still, they wondered why Tamaki seemed like dying on their sides now.

Does Tamaki also need help?

With that said, while they helped Eri, All-Might had a meeting with Midoriya and Bakugou.

As usual, they talked about All-For-One and One-For-All.

As for why Bakugou was included, it was because he knew everything.

Currently, they talked about the previous generations of One-For-All and talked about their Quirks.

Yet, unexpectedly, Bakugou's reaction was quite dull. He didn't even seem impressed or surprised.

"What's wrong, Kacchan?" Midoriya was confused since he was amazed by the abilities of the previous generation of One-For-All, yet why didn't Bakugou seem to?

"Leaving One-For-All and All-For-One aside, can you defeat All-Might at its peak now?" Bakugou suddenly asked.

".........."

When this question was asked, All-Might and Midoriya fell into silence.

Even if Bakugou was meant, he wouldn't hit All-Might. If Midoriya was alone, Bakugou might be merciless. Unfortunately, Midoriya wasn't.

Still, Bakugou's words were enough to wake up All-Might and Midoriya from their daydream.

Could they defeat All-Might at its peak?

Leaving the All-For-One aside, the most dangerous people in the group should be Hokusai.

The ability to turn a drawing into reality.

If All-Might was possible, then what about the others?

Kurogiri might be caught, but as long as Hokusai existed, everything would be meaningless.

"Well, for now, just focus on becoming stronger." Bakugou shook his head. "I will leave first." In his mind, Midoriya was already hopeless in this battle. Instead, the only person that could change the direction of the fight was Mineta.

All-Might didn't stop Bakugou. Instead, he looked at Midoriya, trying to find words to comfort his inheritor. Unfortunately, he couldn't find anything since the current Midoriya was just... he shook his head.

Midoriya clenched his fists and thought that he needed to work harder!
