On the side of the beach, there were two figures. One small and one tall.
The small figure was working hard with his work out while also cleaning the beach and the tall figure was reading a newspaper.
"A, All Might... I, I'm done..." The small figure plopped on the sandy ground and took a deep breath. While trying to stabilize his breath, he looked at the tall figure who had given him hope in his despair.
"Oh, you're done? Young Midoriya?" The tall figure nodded and seemed quite satisfied when this small figure had done the training which he had personally created for him.
If someone heard what they were talking about then they would be surprised since no one would expect that the number one hero in this country was this skinny guy who had an appearance similar to a skeleton.
Midoriya stood up slowly with his tired body and said, "I, I can do more training!"
All Might shook his head and said, "It's alright, take a breath first. I want to read the newspaper."
Midoriya looked at the newspaper and asked, "What's inside the newspaper?"
"It's about Bruno."
"What?! Bruno?!" Midoriya was startled when he saw the headlines of the newspaper.
All Might looked at Midoriya and ask, "Do you know him?"
"Of course!"
Midoriya suddenly became spirited and talked in full enthusiasm. "Bruno has only appeared one month ago, but he has become one of the most popular and strongest heroes in Hosu City! He also has defeated two giants easily....." He had entered fanboy mode and told what he knew about Bruno.
"....."
All Might nodded and thought that it would be good to meet Bruno in the future."
"And his Quirk is very cool!!!"
Midoriya continued with his fanboy mode, which somehow made All Might sigh.

On the terrace of an Italian restaurant in Hosu City, Trattoria Trussardi, there was a man who was sipping his espresso while reading a newspaper.
Along the way, there were a lot of people who greeted this man with smiles excitedly from old man, granny, beautiful ladies, and even a child greeted this man with full of enthusiasm, but then man only greeted them back lazily. Even so, it didn't erase their enthusiasm.
"Bruno! Bruno! Look, look, I've made a cake in my class today!"
There was a little girl, who brought a muffin cake and wanted to give it to the man.
"...."
The man was stunned and wanted to reject it, but then he decided to accept it. "Thank you.
"Taste it! Taste it! Is it delicious!"
The man sighed and said, "Alright, alright, I'll eat it." He took the muffin cake and put it into his mouth. He frowned, but then a zipper appeared on his tongue swallowing the muffin cake before it entered his mouth, but his mouth was moving as if chewing the cake. He nodded and patted the little girl's head. "Thank you, it's delicious."
"Yay! I'll bring you again tomorrow!"
"..."
The man was speechless, but before he could say anything the little girl had left.
"Oh my.. Bruno, you're so popular!"
"Don't tease me, alright?" The man looked at the woman in front of him and asked, "So is there something that I can help you with? I can't accompany your daughter since I need to do a patrol after this."
"N, no..." The beautiful woman shook her head and said, "B, Bruno, if you're not busy, how about we go to the aquarium next Sunday?"
"....."
The man scratched his chin and looked at the beautiful young mother in front of him. The relationship between the two of them was simple and he had only saved this beautiful young mother robbery in the past, but because of that this woman seemed to fall for him.
"I'm sorry. I can't go with you."
"Huh? Why? Are you busy that day? Then we can change our date." The woman didn't give up.
"I'm sorry, but I'm married."
The man took off his gloves on his left hand and showed a ring which enveloped his finger.
"..."
The woman seemed to be in shock and wasn't sure what to do.
"So I'm sorry."
"..."
The woman staggered for a bit before shouting. "I, I'm not giving up!" She ran away while crying. Though, in her heart, she was wondering who was the lucky woman who had married him.
However, not only the young woman, but almost all the girls and women who happened to be there were crying when they heard that Bruno had married!
However, the man didn't care about that. He shook his head and sipped his espresso again. "It's getting cold." He put down his espresso and called for a refill before continuing to read the newspaper with his photo as the headlines.
This man was Haru and he had been in this world for a month. He was also a Pro Hero "Bruno" who was one of the most popular heroes in this country. It might be because he was so powerful, kind, cool, and handsome (even though no one had seen his face), but his style was very cool since it was very chic and dandy.
"You've rejected another girl?"
Haru looked up and saw an armored man who appeared in front of him. "Oh, Ingenium? You're patrolling in this place?"
Ingenium shook his head and said, "No, I happen nearby so I thought I'd meet you."
"Well, sit down. Do you want to order something?"
"Is there grape juice?"
"There's..." Haru nodded and told Ingenium to sit down since if this guy didn't sit down then he was sure that this guy would be running all the time.
It had been a month since the incident between the two giants and their relationship had become quite close.
Ingenium didn't take off his helmet, but the mouth part of his helmet was opened automatically and he drank the grape juice using a straw. He felt refreshed and asked, "Bruno, is it alright for you to be lazy around this place?"
Haru looked around and whispered. "Well, don't tell anyone else, alright?"
Ingenium nodded.
"This restaurant is mine."
"....."
Ingenium was speechless, but he didn't feel that surprise since he could tell that Haru was rich. He sighed and said, "Say, why don't you take a sidekick?"
"Sidekick, huh?" Haru looked at Ingenium and asked, "If I'm not wrong, there should be a lot of sidekicks at your place?"
"Yeah, do you want to take some from my place?" Ingenium offered.
Haru shook his head and said, "No, it is alright." It wasn't that he didn't want to take a sidekick, but it had only been a month after his debut. He felt that it was too early and thought that it was better to hire them at his office a month later.
"Well, I won't force you." Ingenium nodded and said, "Then, I won't bother you again. If you've a time then you should play at my office and I'll introduce you to my little brother."
"You've got a little brother?"
"Yeah, he's going to enter U.A. High School this year." From his voice, Ingenium seemed quite proud of his little brother.
"How about a little sister, do you have one?" Haru asked.
Ingenium felt strange by this question, but he shook his head. "I don't have one."
"Sorry, I'm not interested. Though, you're welcome to bring your family to this restaurant."
"I'll do that." Ingenium nodded and said, "If I come, give me a discount, alright?"
"You're also a very rich hero, why are you so stingy?"
Ingenium laughed and said, "Then, I'll go now."
"I won't send you off." Haru continued to read his newspaper and could feel that Ingenium had gone to continue Ingenium's patrol. Even though their relationship seemed quite good, they were also rivals. Their offices were quite close to each other and even though the popularity of Ingenium was quite good, the popularity of Bruno was also very high even though it had only been a month since his debut. He looked at the time and drank his espresso in one go.
"I'll be on patrol."
"Take care, Bruno."
"Un."
Haru nodded and left the restaurant to start his patrol. He was wondering whether he should apply as a teacher at U.A. High School now.
