Chapter 52 - Chapter 52: Arrival of the Target

Well, the deadline was shortened by one more day. No matter how strong my abilities are, it is very unlikely that I will be able to make Melissa my own tomorrow. Even if she spends the whole day watching me train and being exposed to the strongest dose of pheromones, it's unlikely to give the desired result.

If I could reach out to her today, get her attention, and give her a dose of aphrodisiac, there was a chance, but now, even if I did it tomorrow, things might get out of hand. If there is only an aphrodisiac and almost zero sympathy, and if I take it in this state, it can end badly. After all, she is not the last fool, but the daughter of a scientist. He will be able to understand that something is wrong. It is one thing to be with me under the influence of sympathy, which increases after intimacy, but another is its beginnings and complete loss of control during the process of coitus. Even Momo thought it was weird, even though she was head over heels in love with me.

Mitsuki and Yuu have a different conversation. There were reasons for that...

In addition, choosing between Melissa and a larger target is an obvious choice. I just didn't have that much time to capture the girl and track down the villain. Even if I can deal with him in a short time, I don't think I'll be able to be alone with her for long enough to go through with my plans. At most, I'll leave a mark on her heart.

In the end, I decided to postpone the case with Melissa for the future. Maybe when I get my act together and get rid of all the threats, I'll come back here and finish what I started. Although, I'm not sure why I would need it then... Maybe I'll take over this island and make them work for me? An interesting option.

The next day came. I woke up early, as usual, for a run. To my surprise, the street was already quite crowded. Several professional heroes were training with each other at all, not far from the hotel, in a specially designated area.

I didn't interfere. I needed to gain some weight and clear my head for the day ahead. There's a lot to decide today. If I don't finish the Wolfram, I won't waste any time, I'll just take Ashido or Uraraka somewhere. Why not? I can keep them quiet.

My two days are expensive, especially without the ability to train Teleportation. So I'm definitely not leaving empty-handed.

Back in my room, I took a shower and then checked the island again with my quirk, but when I didn't find anything interesting, I decided to go out for breakfast. There I met Mina and Uraraka, and then Momo came to see us. She informed us that several of our classmates had also flown in yesterday and offered to meet them. But I politely declined, putting it down to not getting enough sleep, and then went back to my room.

I didn't want to waste my time on idle chatter. I'm here for work, not just this. Even though Momo was upset, she still left me alone. Of course, I will definitely have to visit this exhibition in the evening, but until then I will survive...

I didn't waste any time, I trained while studying the map of the island, plus I increased the efficiency of my Sensors. Recently, I learned to identify relatives by the" signature " of their auras, and even more clearly see the silhouette of a person. Everyone you knew was easy enough to identify, but strangers were harder to deal with, especially if you'd never met them in person.

And then, around lunchtime, I noticed a plane moving about a kilometer from the island, and in it two familiar auras. They were very similar, although they were not related.

The Almighty and Midoriya.

It was these two people who gave me the idea that the aura could be used to roughly understand the essence of the quirk. I tried to learn this, but so far it's been so bad. However, one thing is clear, the reinforcing quirks, as well as those transmitted to others, had special "details". If I can only understand it better, I might even be able to understand the type of quirk in the future. Mutations, for example, also distinguished people from others.

Hmm? What's this?

Another plane was flying from the opposite side of the island, and that's where I noticed it.

Tungsten.

It was definitely him, there was no doubt about it, and all because his aura was special. First-very strong, and secondly...

A few quirks?

I'm not sure exactly, but his "signature" had additional features that ordinary people didn't have. Something similar happened to me, as well as to Midoriya. Although, in this man's case, it was a little different...

So that's it... I was wondering. Now it's clear.

The transferred quirk had special traits that didn't quite fit with the user's body. Usually, a person had a quirk from birth, so the aura included character, strength, quirk, and more. A complete picture, so to speak. But if you mix in something alien, like someone else's quirk...

Clear. Did you try All For One? High probability. Apparently, the power of the quirk is not small. I can't tell you exactly what she's doing. It's similar to the amplification type, because it affects the muscle fibers, and if you take into account these red streaks in the aura, which are almost mixed with it, then the quirk is relatively recent.

It was the same for me when I acquired teleportation. By now, her "color" has almost become a part of me. People's auras usually tended to be the same shade, differing only in their brightness and deeper features. It is too difficult to explain this, because Sensorics are not vision. Just as a person born blind cannot explain colors, so I could not explain auras. I instinctively understood and distinguished them, and the more experience I had in "observation", the better it was given.

Hmmm...

Well, give this guy some credit. Thanks to him, I was able to better understand the Sensor.

In addition, the quirks I bought were noticeably different from the one he received... Mine was more "clean", so to speak, and lent itself well to "merging". His quirk seemed to have flaws and did not want to "obey" him at all, as if it rejected him because he was not its original owner.

Interesting... Could it be that he wouldn't be able to unleash her full power?

Here you really need to check in battle. As soon as he lands, I'll catch up with him and stab him in the back.

The question is, can you kill him quickly?

It all depends on the position... If I can get close without being noticed, then the chances are great.

I was hoping that everything would go according to plan, but I was still prepared for a serious fight. I didn't even mind. The main thing is that the Almighty does not interfere. That means I need to wait a few more hours. He'll probably show up on the island in his full uniform to show off, but he won't be able to maintain it for long, and as soon as he gives up, I'll attack Wolfram.

I slowly closed my eyes and concentrated.

All that remained was to wait...
