Chereads / Ant King In MHA / Chapter 68 - Trouble

Chapter 68 - Trouble

__________ POV Beru__________

Actually finding a toilet in this stadium proved to be more difficult than I had expected.

But I did manage to find it in the end. I even ran into a familiar face.

"Oh!~Flame beard!~Great to see you're still healthy.~" It was none other than the dude that helped me(tried to anyway) when fighting All for One.

"Beru, I had heard that you were at UA, didn't expect to run into you here though..." Why is this guy so rigid? Did he eat something bad?

"Well~ Where else am I supposed to be?~ I do kinda live here...~" I could see the guy sweat a bit.

"I mean, the stadium is quite big... So I didn't think I'd run into..." Yeah, I was just messing with you. He seemed to get the message after I tilted my head at him for a bit.

"I must go now! My Shoto is going to be competing soon!" Great, I don't remember asking, but great.

"I'm glad for you(Assuming you're talking about your son and not a pet or something)~ Hope to see you again sometimes~," I said as I waved my hand and continued looking for a toilet.

"Sure..." He muttered and walked off.

Why is this guy so awkward. He seemed pretty nice when he was helping me. Was he being purposefully boisterous or something?

Well, whatever. I finally found the bathroom after 4 minutes of searching(don't like asking for directions).

I kinda hate having to pee while wearing a watch, but it's not all that bad.

Why am I wearing a watch? Well, Oyama wanted a reliable way of contacting me.

And, seeing as I'm not willing to put some pants on to have pockets for a phone, she just decided to give me a smartwatch.

It's the same colour as my exoskeleton, and when the screen is closed most people wouldn't even see it.

It's actually quite hard to navigate a smart screen when you don't have actual skin on your fingers. But she said that this was made with that in mind, so I don't need to worry too much.

The more annoying part about it is that it suddenly started vibrating on me. I looked at the screen to see none other than Cold Bitch(how I changed Oyama's contact) calling me.

I obviously responded. It would be a bit rude to make her wait.

"Sup~" Is always my go-to opening. I'm guessing this is about important business of some kind.

"Beru, we have an emergency." I can guess from your tone, get to it.

"Ya, sure~ Go on~," I said while scratching the back of my head.

"Wolfram and his group have acted today. He said that this would be a better moment since most of the country and heroes are fixated on the festival..." She seems pretty stressed.

I guess this is basically really bad for them. Since if something major was to happen when such a large event was going on, they'd get into a bit of trouble.

I mean, both the Nr.1(Toshi) and Nr.2(Flame beard) heroes are present here. So the entire hero community might get some flack for shirking their duties.

"They decided to act early?~" If they just brazenly started doing shit then they'd be going against the contract.

"They announced me in the last moment. But they should have already started. It's quite far from Musutafu, so I doubt any of the heroes there will be able to help..." She said with a sigh.

"Don't worry~ I'll just take care of it~ I'll make sure there aren't any casualties~" I could hear a sigh of relief after I was done speaking.

"Thank you... I know this is unreasonable, you also have your free time after all..." I mean, I am a bit mad, but things would be a bit problematic if Oyama and the Commission have a bad opinion of me.

So I can't really refuse this. I mean, I already agreed to do the overall mission, shirking on it would be the same as spitting in their faces(after they've helped me).

"By the way... Are you near a fountain? I keep hearing water in the background..." Hmm?

"Oh~I just have a strong bladder~," I said as I finished and retracted my pp.

"I-I see... Well then, we're relying on you... I guess..." Why do I hear so much regret in her voice?

"Don't worry, I'll take care of Wolfram and his boys~," I said as I turned off the watch and washed my hands(sanitation is important).

Now, I guess I'll check out whatever the fuck Wolfram and the others are planning. I mean, I guess they are smarter than I thought.

It actually makes sense to carry out a coordinated attack while everyone is distracted. Problem is, not everyone is distracted.

They will definitely have to fight some heroes. So I still need to be there to make sure they don't get their asses caught.

I also need to make sure they don't go around raping and pillaging like Vikings. I already know the proper way to take care of this.

There are around 60 of them(if I remember correctly) I'm sure they won't notice if one of them goes missing for one second and returns with a different personality...

I warped myself to the targeted bank (all of the targets were shown to me beforehand).

I could see that they already managed to take the entire building hostage. The police had yet to properly secure the perimeter.

I could see three of the gunmen come out of the bank through the back. After making sure no one else was nearby, I used my fastest speed to knock out the one that was dragging behind.

I quickly dragged him onto the roof of a nearby building, I cut his cheek open and took some blood. I transformed myself into him using Toga's quirk and quickly flew back behind the other two.

It's nice that I don't have to worry about clothes.

And, how exactly did I get Toga's quirk? Well, how the fuck was I supposed not to?

I sleep next to her every night. Each morning, when I wake up, there are at least 20 strands of her hair in my mouth.

Well, that's about it really. I'll just walk around near them, this disguise will serve me well enough if I need to interfere or something. (can't have people recognize me)

All of that happened in three seconds(record time really), the idiots didn't even notice.

"Hah! Did you hear that Jhonny! Mark said that Wolfram wanted to do the entire crime spree today!" One of the dudes turned around and spoke to me.

He was speaking English, which works for me.

"Oh! That's pretty neat!" I said, using the voice of the guy that I knocked out.

"Still, patrolling around is so boring... I bet the guys inside are already having fun with the female employees..." The other guy also started whining.

I looked through the walls, everyone seemed to be taking their jobs pretty seriously, so I guess these guys are just idiots.

Not surprising since they were basically told to fuck off and patrol an empty parking lot.

I mean, maybe they will be doing something later. I'll have to stop them if they do that... Why did it have to be a group of thieves of all things?...

I mean, Oyama could've chosen ANYBODY, literally anything would've been better than this. Who cares if they're trained? They're not even that great...

I mean, these guys are decent, but I doubt they are the only available group of capable mercs. Well, I guess most of them would have higher prices.

People that have a bad rep(ai. A gang of thieves) barely get any big jobs(like this one) so they are easily underpaid without any complaints.

I mean, they get to keep the money from the banks, but they aren't really attacking any major banks...

"Jhonny! What's up, dude? You've been really silent." Asked one of the underdeveloped apes walking in front of me.

"Nah, just thinking of all the action we're missing right now..." I said dismissively, hoping he'd get the message and stop bothering me.

"Yeah-" He kept on babbling about stupid shit until we were finally called back in. We wouldn't even have made it back in if not for me.

The police have already surrounded the place and the three of us almost got caught (I had to pull the idiots back inside).

"Jhonny, that was sick! Didn't know you had it in y-" I let them talk more as I walked and looked around the bank. The safe was already opened, and some people were loading their bags.

Wolfram was speaking through a megaphone to the authorities. He obviously started negotiating a rescue ransom...

I don't remember this being part of the deal... I guess I'll need to talk with him now.
