"The rule of the defeated surrendering, that's common sense, Accelerator-kun."
Shokuhou Misaki, clearly the defeated, overwhelmed someone with her momentum at this moment.
People often bloom with unimaginable power at unexpected times.
Accelerator replied with a poker face.
"Hah... I don't remember anything about this matter."
"We didn't have any agreement about this match, did we? Or is our Miss Ki planning something secretly again?"
Based on his memory and control over it, Accelerator launched his first counterattack against the person in front of him.
However, Shokuhou Misaki clearly didn't intend to compete with Accelerator in terms of logic.
This blonde, busty, starry-eyed girl was the type who advocated for the theory of love attacks.
"If this guy doesn't take the initiative to ask me out, then don't blame me for finding an excuse to trick him out!"
Accelerator's memory was correct, but it didn't matter.
Because Shokuhou Misaki knew very well that whether it was victory or a bet, it was all part of her plan to conquer Accelerator.
Those things were fake.
Accelerator indeed didn't have any agreement with Shokuhou Misaki about the match before it started.
The only real thing was her desire to go on a date with the one she loved.
Shokuhou Misaki smiled sweetly at him and said,
"Accelerator-kun, according to what you said."
"Are you trying to cheat?"
"Or are you unwilling to admit that this match is your victory?"
Such a perfect provocation was the true proof of knowing how to correctly use someone's weak spot.
Accelerator was a man of his word.
Moreover, he did indeed win from Shokuhou Misaki.
Accelerator knew very well that if he didn't use the level of power he used to end the match from the beginning...
But his purpose for participating in these matches was to closely observe the performance of the heroes in his class and other schools.
If the match ended early, it would be putting the cart before the horse.
If Shokuhou Misaki used her Quirk and the loopholes in the rules...
She indeed had a great chance of using the competition mechanism to gain leading points and achieve victory.
Although Accelerator didn't have any agreement with Shokuhou before the match, he did promise his homeroom teacher Aizawa Shouta to do his best to get enough points in the first round of the school battle royale.
In exchange, Accelerator could have more autonomy in choosing individual and team projects.
If he could perfectly wrap up this match...
So, from a certain perspective...
In this match, Accelerator indeed took a lot of advantage of Shokuhou Misaki.
And he couldn't figure out whether this woman did it on purpose or not.
"I feel like I owe this guy more and more favors."
In the end, he reluctantly admitted,
"Do I look like someone who doesn't dare to admit his victory?"
"Victory is victory."
Hearing his words, Shokuhou's lips curled up with a sweet smile and said,
"That's the way it is☆"
"I won't lose to any random person."
"I will only lose to you☆"
"So now, how about considering what to do with your cute captive?"
Accelerator didn't notice that at this moment, Shokuhou Misaki was using the victory agreement as an excuse to hide her shyness.
After all, the so-called Demon King was actually a big blockhead who was the first love of the Queen of Ketsubutsu.
If he had more awareness and broader thinking in this area, he would surely notice Shokuhou Misaki's blushing face and the pounding heart of the girl in front of him, indicating her feelings.
Maybe things wouldn't be like this.
Accelerator just said to her helplessly.
"Tch... whatever you want."
"When you've figured out what to do, Misaki, just let me know."
Instead of thinking about how to handle his promise with Shokuhou Misaki, Accelerator thought it would be more practical to consider how to improve Todoroki-kun or Togata Mirio's hero costumes.
His response, of course, made Shokuhou Misaki even happier.
"Hehehe, then it's a deal☆"
As if to confirm the authenticity of this promise, Shokuhou Misaki leaned closer to him, closing the distance between them.
It was the kind of distance where they could feel each other's breath, and naturally, Shokuhou's ample, soft chest pressed against Accelerator.
"This time, I won't let you back out, okay?"
"Don't make that helpless face☆"
(referring to Accelerator's current expression of helplessness)
"This is something you decided yourself, Accelerator-kun."
He blinked tiredly and indifferently.
Accelerator, of course, knew what kind of person Shokuhou Misaki was.
If he had to say, ever since they met in the other world, this inexplicable woman had unknowingly occupied a significant part of his heart.
Rather than saying their mutual influence came from long-term interaction, it would be more accurate to say that Shokuhou Misaki had always been trying to break into his inner world in various ways, or that she was trying to bring him into her inner world.
And these two hadn't even considered the reporters around the arena who were diligently broadcasting the live battle.
As they whispered to each other at such a close distance, everyone filming and watching on TV was thrilled.
The reporters could even imagine tomorrow's headline.
"Shocking! The Romance Between Ketsubutsu's Queen and the Demon King"
After all, this was a precious moment of intimacy between Ketsubutsu's "Queen" Shokuhou Misaki and U.A. High's "Demon King" Accelerator.
Whether they were professional heroes, Quirk users, or non-Quirk users, as long as they were human, they would gossip. It's one of human nature's traits.
And on such an important stage, did their intimate interaction signify something?
Everyone who saw this scene would think so.
And this scene was also seen by the chef girl who had been watching the match on TV.
Sitting on the sofa in her apartment, Saten Ruiko showed no emotion.
She calmly got up and looked for something in the kitchen.
It seemed like she was preparing something.
