Chapter 26: Shigaraki’s Missions



__________ POV Beru__________

HahAHahA. So funny.

It's been around two weeks of trying to get drunk and failing.

Get this, I now need to do missions for that shitty kid. Why? Well, because All for One wants his pupil to gain some experience giving commands and missions.

But he doesn't feel like losing too many people(cuz Shigaraki is a shit strategist). So he sends me because he knows I won't be in any danger.

Now, Shigaraki has realised that I usually just ignore his fetch quests. Like bringing him groceries and other stuff.

So he decided to send me to hunt down another villain. Why? I don't know. But he wants me to find and kill him.

The villain isn't really anything special. Just a guy that can grow tails out of his body and use them to fight... Well, I might take his quirk, but that's different. I'm sure I can use it better than him.

I walked around Hosu City, looking for the villain in every corner of it. Not really helpful, because I couldn't find anything about him. At least the first two days.

You can guess that Shigaraki instantly complained to his Daddy(AFO). Who told him that having patience will be helpful or some fatherly bullshit advice he took out of his 10-page guidebook on how to be a parental figure.

Today, however, I seem to have found my target.

So how exactly did I end up being chased around by a human torch looking to burn me to the ground? Well...

The villain was already fighting a few heroes when I reached him. He turned out to be much stronger than I initially thought. His tails seemed to be very resistant, maybe as much as my exoskeleton even.

He could endlessly grow and expand them. Making him an extremely dangerous opponent. Well, not for me. He is far slower than me, I think All Might would only need a punch to take this loser out.

But he seemed to be winning. I was about to swoop in and perform a perfect 'superhero' landing to decapitate him with my legs. But something else stopped me.

A wave of flames hit the guy as he was trying to finish off a hero. He was a bit burned but managed to get his tail to block the incoming flames.

I looked at the source. A muscly man dressed in a skintight black suit. He had a flaming beard and moustache and red hair.

Now, I've seen some cool stuff lately. But this is the first time I've seen a flaming beard. And I must say I am impressed.

I don't know this guy, but he's cool. I want his quirk now. Well, only because it looks strong. I didn't get All Might's quirk because I already have enough strength enhancers.

But I barely have any flame stuff... The only fire quirk I have is the one from the Weeaboo Swordsman in that random warehouse.

Unfortunately, a fire beard won't look that great on me... But being able to use flames like that seems dope.

The tail guy looked panicked all of a sudden. "E-Endeavor!?" I guess I learned the hero's name thanks to this guy?

Endeavor, I guess, huffed as flames left his nostrils. Yep, I want that quirk.

Well, I think I should thank him accordingly. I rushed him from above. A blade grew from my elbow as I landed and split the villain in two.

The heroes around me looked shocked, I did appear out of nowhere for them, I guess.

I dragged a finger on the blade and discretely licked a bit of the blood. It's a bit nasty, but hey! Power is power, I'm not gonna cry about it.

"YOU!" Endeavor rushed me, using his flames to send himself towards me as I slowly got up.

He put his hands together and released a concentrated stream of fire towards me. Now, I may have some resistance to heat. But I don't really feel like letting my insides boil right now.

So I flew above the attack, avoiding it completely as it scorched the body of the tail villain. The other injured heroes dragged themselves away.

I looked at the hero, deciding on the best course of action. I decided to use my speed against him, I rushed him, appearing behind him instantly.

My hand was already raised in the air as my claws were prepared to dig into his back. Endeavor reacted faster than I expected though, releasing flames all around him.

I swiped his back with my claws, as my body started heating up due to his flames. He can't really burn me, as my exoskeleton can't really get burned easily. But my body heating up isn't going to help me.

I retreated a bit. And I decided to do a bold move. Punching towards him and using Air Cannon minimally. Making the shockwave look like it was released by my punch.

I blew away Endeavor's flames as he covered his eyes. The wound on his back was already cauterised, this guy has a lot of pain tolerance...

I don't really want to reveal how many quirks I have. All for One knows of my Air Cannon, but I don't like others knowing everything about my abilities. So I decided to mask whatever ability I could.

I licked Endeavor's already dried blood from my claws. His fire almost evaporated the little blood I managed to draw from him.

But it seems like I don't need to draw even more, as that little bit of dried blood was enough for me to assimilate his powers.

Again, I won't be using them, not right now anyway...

"What a monster..." The hero said through gritted teeth.

"So mean~" I guess he's realised he can't beat me from that little exchange. Still, I wonder how long he wi-

"Haaaa!" That was all I heard as a kick came my way. It was aiming for my head, I just raised my hand and blocked it with my forearm.

A guy dressed in white armour screaming like an idiot was the one that just tried to kick me. His leg seems to be accelerated by some strange tubes coming out of his calves.

Well, his hit wasn't all that bad, maybe 30% of what that All Might guy could normally do? Maybe less? Well, I kinda like the tubes, I will take his quirk too.

I can't really see his face because of his helmet, but I can guess he is quite shocked at how little his attack did.

I turned around a bit, twirling my body and punching the armoured hero directly in the face. It instantly broke his helmet as blood splattered on my fist.

He was sent flying into a building. Raising a cloud of dust and breaking a few windows. I didn't put everything I had in that hit. But I still put a bit of strength behind it.

And, now that his blood is already on my knuckle, there's no reason for me to refuse a free quirk. I lapped it up.

I gave one last look towards the heroes. Endeavor was looking like he wasn't done yet, but I am. I flew off instantly.

When I was above the clouds, I decided to try out my new powers. First off, tails.

Two veiny tails came out of my back, they were quickly covered in my exoskeleton. They look quite sick. But I don't know how often I will use them...

I retracted them into my body.

Now, the fire ability. I raised my palm as the temperature around me rose, I released a gout of flames large enough to burn down an entire park!

This is fun, but it seems like I'll have to get used to the temperature. Now, for my next, and last power.

I remember the guy having pipes on his calves. But I shouldn't really have that restriction, at least I don't think so.

When using that quirk, it seems like my calves become engines of sorts. But it also seems like I can grow Pipes everywhere on my body.

I decided to grow them on my back. They should give me a little boost when flying...

Now, it's time to go back to the bar and drink a bit! Why? To a successful mission of course. (not that I need a reason to drink)
