Chapter 7 - The Girl Named Eri!

I quickly dashed towards the blond haired boy, I summoned Beru and order him to fight off the villain. I caught the blond haired boy. He look up at me, before passing out. I picked up the little girl and quickly placed the boy down and used Quick Silver to grab Sir Nighteye. I could tell he was heavily bleeding, although I've never talked to him, he's still an important figure in hero society. I realized I the only way to save him was to pull the stone pillar out and to ins use a high tier potion right away. Due to the speed I had I was able to pull him out causing a few cracks to be heard. I quickly poured the potion into the hero's mouth and instantly, he was starting to regenerate his damaged organs.

"M-mister? I-is h-he going to be ok? It's all my fault isn't it, if only I went with the mean man, I'm cursed, no one can save me." the little girl spoke quietly. I bent down to the girls height before rubbing her head, I made sure to smile at her to hide my intentions for what I'll do to this villain. "Don't worry, I'll make sure the bad man goes away." I said with a look of determination that made the scared girl believe in me for a quick second before the fear rolled in her eyes again. "N-no! He will kill you...." She said while trying to stop me.

I bent down to her and reached out my hand, I curled all my fingers into a fist shape leaving only my pinky. "Do you know what this is?" I said while showing her my hand gesture, she only shook her head side to side signaling she didn't. I grabbed her bandaged hand and helped her curl her fingers in the same position, I then curled her pinky on mine. "This is called a pinky promise, my father taught me this, it's a gesture to show that someone will keep their promise." She nodded in confrontation for me to continue, I smiled and said. "With this pinky promise, I promise that I will save you and that I will come back no matter what. "Her eyes suddenly widen which caused a real smile to form on my face this time. I let go of her tiny hands and started to walk towards the brawl between beru and the masked villain. I could tell beru was holding back to allow me to beat him up.

I snapped my finger signaling beru to make comfort the little girl and make sure she doesn't see what I'm about to do. He vanished leaving the villain surprised. "You! Why do you hero's keep getting in my way!" He screamed at me. I ignored his filthy words and walked towards his direction. he placed his hand on the ground and launched thirty spiked pillars at me. I raised my hand and used rulers authority to crush the stone pillars. "What quirk do you have!" He screamed. I used quick silver and appeared right behind him while grabbing his wrist. "Hmph, so your quirk works when your hand is touching any form of matter, so what if I remove your hands." I said while smiling evilly at him." He quickly screamed in fear, "but let's have some fun first" I said while smiling darkly. I threw him into the ground causing a few of his ribs to crack. He tried to use his quirk to heal himself but in a burst of speed I appeared, in front of him. He tried to to touch me with his hand but I was faster, I slapped his wrist away making sure not to touch his hands. I knew that his hand were involved with his quirk because when I touched his skin he wasn't able manipulate the matter in my body.

He was sent back by my sheer strength, even when he merged with another one of his comrades he was not a match for me. I ran at him and kicked him in the face sending him crashed into the building. "Damn you! Damn you! Damn you!" He yelled, each yell was louder than the last. He touched the floor causing spikes to launch again but I evaded all of them while clearing the distance. I grabbed his face and slammed it in the wall over and over again until he was knocked out. I could tell that I snapped a total of thirty two bones out of the two hundred and six he had. I walked up to him pulling my Demon Kings daggers out of my inventory, I grabbed his arm and sliced off both of his hands off. I then used a low tier option on him to close the wound so he wouldn't lose any more blood.

I walked up to the little girl, and bent down to her while whispering to her in her ears "I told you that I would keep my promise." She started cry while jumping on top of me. I pinched my cheek before giving her a smile. "I know this will be kind of be awkward to ask, but what's your name?" I said while sweat dropping. She scanned me up and down before saying "My name is E-Eri" I smiled a cheeky smile and spoke, "Eri huh, well that's a beautiful name." She only nodded, I could tell it would take a while before she could full express her emotions.

Soon after reinforcements came, they started to ask me questions on how I defeated the villain. I told them a few parts of the story except the part where I cut off his hands. They came up with the conclusion that his hands are gone because he didn't full materialize his hands when he fused with the villain.

After that whole event I stayed the whole night in the hospital for Eri because she couldn't sleep, I received many calls from Inko whom I ignored. In the morning I met up with the surviving heros, Sir Night Eye was the person whom had the most gratitude for me because if I hadn't healed him, he would've surely died. I made friends with the blond haired boy named Mirio Togata, I discovered that he was part of the UA big three.

It's been two weeks now and I haven't been at school due to handling Eri's situation. the government had no idea what they should do with her because she refused to leave my side. This caused the hero association and the government to allow me to adopt Eri as her brother. I've told the situation about my parents to the association which they decided that it would be best that I would be Eri's Legal guardian, meaning that she wouldn't be the adopted daughter of Toshinori and Inko.

The association was generous enough to give me and Eri an apartment to stay in as well as give us some money every month until the girl was eighteen, they even agreed to pay the medical bills and insurance for Eri and I. The association also made it so that the apartment would be close by to UA so it would be easier for me and Eri to go to UA for school, the association got an agreement with Nezu so that he would handle Eri's Education that way I wouldn't have to worry about dropping her off at a unprotected elementary school and I would always be near her in case she has some sort of mental breakdown, they though it would be best for the professionals like Nezu to handle Eri's quirk.
