Chapter 14 - My Stomach Hurts

At the same time, Kira was battling against Gigantomachia, the heroes, the police, and the fire trucks were already heading for the burning abandoned hospital.

They didn't know what happened there, they were just notified by a concerned citizen passing through the area when he passed it. He immediately called the authorities when he thought that there might be a huge forest fire ongoing in that area.

When the heroes arrived at the still-burning building, those that have water-related Quirks used them without a second, while the other heroes brought down nearby trees from the building then used their Quirks to help out in taking out the fire.

The firemen and the police came after them then immediately got to work, the police secured the area while the firemen helped the heroes in extinguishing the massive fire.

It took them about an hour to completely extinguish the whole fire but when they took a good look at the building, that's when they realized it was an abandoned hospital in the first place.

After that, they looked inside in order to investigate the cause of the fire but the police and heroes looked deeper and luckily found a bookshelf burned into a crisp and behind it was leading to a secret passageway.

When they noticed this, they all thought this was no longer a simple arson incident and went deeper to investigate. As soon as they entered, they saw burned large cables leading to something deeper inside with some fires still ongoing.

They followed the cables until they saw a few burning headless corpses beside what looks like rows of broken tubes on the way. When they extinguished the fires, they noticed that these corpses looked different from your average burned corpses.

They just placed blankets to cover them up and continued on but just like they thought, the entire way to the very center was littered with these bizarre burning headless corpses.

Some of them grew sick to their stomachs from this sight but they all continued on until they found an operation-like room and found a corpse different from the rest but it was still burning.

From what they have gathered, the corpses they saw before looked like monsters instead of humans but when they saw the corpse in front of them, they identified it as a human at a first glance. Although, they did notice it's three missing limbs but it wasn't headless like the rest.

The police examined the whole room thoroughly for any leads until they found a few unburned documents but when they read a little from it, they'd wish they didn't as some of them puked out in disgust from the things noted from it.

The heroes there grew suspicious of this whole thing as all of them decided to go deeper to find any clue about it and when they finally found one door at the end of their pathway, they knew they found it.

As soon as they entered, they regretted it instantly at the gruesome scene that unfolded in their eyes, hundreds of burning headless corpses like the one they found earlier were stacked like pancakes. Some couldn't hold it in and puked out their breakfast while the rest grew just squeamish at this.

*Blurg!!* "Oh god, who could've done such things" *Blurg!* One of the heroes groaned out as he continued to puke.

"Whoever did this, really has a knack for beheading these things," One of them muttered but when the rest of them heard him, their eyes widened suddenly and grew pale white.

"Umm, something I said?" The one who muttered earlier noticed his colleagues' reactions.

"I… I think we all know someone… who likes to behead his victims, don't we?" One of them answered him and immediately they all could think of one single infamous villain right now.

"...Damn… if he really did this on his own... m*th*rf*cker, I'm gone," One of them commented and the strangest thing was not one of them objected to this as they all continued to look at still burning headless corpses.

...

Meanwhile, in an unknown location, a room with no windows filled with darkness, and the only light source is several medical apparatus monitors.

"Hmmm… it seems that the doctor and Machia are no more… interesting," A voice suddenly was heard from the center of the room.

"Kurogiri…" The same voice rang out again but this time as soon the voice called out, a black-purple mist suddenly appeared, and from it, the same black purple mist in the shape of a person while wearing a bartender outfit with a metal bracket on his neck came out of it.

"Master?" Kurogiri asked while bowing a little.

"Stay low for a while… It seems like someone discovered and killed both the doctor and Machia,"

"Y-you mean… someone beside All Might was able to defeat that giant, sir?" Kurogiri asked again.

"Mmm, and whoever that someone is… his target is... definitely me… and if that someone caught my successor now, everything I planned would be ruined, so stay low for a while," The voice rang out again.

"Yes, master," Kurogiri replied respectfully and used his quirk to create a portal back but before he could step into it, he heard his master, All For One, say one last thing.

"Remember, the one we're up against isn't a hero… if he catches a glimpse of you or Tomura, he may kill you," All For One reminded him.

*Gulped*

Kurogiri nodded then stepped into his portal and disappeared from the room.

"This is getting interesting… It's been a while since someone actually dared to hunt me down outside of my brother's that is," All For One muttered while grinning excitedly while he was strapped in his chair with various sizes of cables are attached to him.

Meanwhile at Kira's side.

He was currently still riding his bike back to his humble home. He did stop by the market earlier to pick some fresh groceries then placed it all on his inventory.

After a few more minutes, he arrived at his bakery and quickly took a long-deserved shower as he finally killed those two but still he can't help but grimace when he remembers the locations the doctor hid those Nomus.

While he was in the shower, he frowned when he remembered how meticulous All For One in his plans even if in his close circle. He knew this is the work of All For One's countless Quirks, as no matter what he did, he can't find anything about All For One's current location or state from both the doctor's and Machia's memories.

As he came out of his shower with just a towel on his waist, he also contemplated the lack of information about Tomura from both of their memories.

*Ding Dong*

He was broken from his thoughts when he heard his doorbell ringing.

"Yes?" Kira opened his door and asked who was looking for him.

"Are you... Kira Kagami?" An emotionless young girl that looked like his age asked him with a suspicious pause.

"I am," Kira said casually while totally forgetting his current get-up.

"My name is... Yui Kodai... My mother, Hana Kodai, is one of your regulars... she mentioned that you're looking for help even if it's just a part-timer," Yui said slowly while her eyes looked carefully at Kira's naked chest.

"Can you start tomorrow after your school?" Kira ignored Yui's obvious gaze as he nodded and inquired about her.

"Alright… Thank you... Kagami-san," Yui said stoically then turned but before she could even take one step, Kira stopped her.

"Kodai-san, you might want to get that," Kira said and pointed at Yui's nose that is currently bleeding.

"...Thank you," Yui nodded in thanks as she used her handkerchief to wipe the blood off then turned and went home like nothing bothered her but as soon as she got home, she profusely thanked her mother.

After Yui's visit, Kira got ready for his nightly scum hunt but he found it weird when he only got to kill one and the rest of the night was oddly peaceful. He contemplated a bit but he just shrugged it off but as soon as midnight came, his daily penalty mission teleported him again.

When Kira hunted for the doctor and Gigantomachia, he completely forgot about his daily quest so here he is, being teleported again.

His expected deepwater never came instead the first thing he noticed was his feet standing on murky water about knee-high. He looked around and noticed that he was in the middle of an open area in a swamp.

Surrounding him were huge trees about 500 meters away but as he tried to figure out what would come, he heard something behind him that was heading his way, something big. He turned and what he saw were a group of 20-meter Crocodiles-like creatures racing towards him with their eyes fixed at him.

"Damn…" Kira cursed then took out his red scythe then without waiting for them to come, he ran on top of the muddy water charging at them as well.

'Looks like I'll be late opening the bakery tomorrow,' He thought as he charged straight at the leading Crocodile's open jaw. He didn't let them react to him as soon as he got in its jaws he swung it diagonally towards its upper jaw.

*Slick*

Kira's attack sliced the Crocodile's upper jaw clean off its head but he didn't want to waste time so he attacked the nearby ones as well while also summoning Vaga to help him out.
