章 284: Become Famous

As usual, concealing a few things while revealing everything else.

And in the course of the narration, it naturally touched upon various matters.

Today, with Renault's help, Endeavor, who had improved his strength, was the topic of discussion. He shared with Yaoyorozu the details about Endeavor's family and his relationship with Todoroki.

Upon hearing this, Yaoyorozu was taken aback.

"I... I had heard a little about Todoroki-kun's complicated family situation, how his family isn't very harmonious and all, but I didn't expect it to be like this."

Yaoyorozu was somewhat puzzled. "Based on your personality, you wouldn't help someone like Endeavor, right?"

"Indeed." Renault didn't refute and replied, "Endeavor, whether as a husband or a father, is unqualified. I understood that clearly from my conversation with Todoroki. But on the other hand, as a Pro Hero, Endeavor is undoubtedly very qualified. He can be considered a model Pro Hero. Moreover, this is his first major battle as Number One and losing would be a huge blow to morale."

After a brief pause, Renault continued, "And I heard from Todoroki earlier that Endeavor is also striving to change. Everything is moving in a positive direction. From a moral and logical standpoint, I can't just sit idly by and watch this uncle fall."

Blinking her eyes, Yaoyorozu smiled, "That's good, then."

After finishing the snacks in her hands, Yaoyorozu held the box and said, "I'll bring these down for everyone to eat."

"Huh? Didn't you say earlier..."

"As long as I say they were just delivered to me, it's fine!"

"Well, that makes sense. I have no argument." Renault chuckled helplessly and lay down on the bed. "You go ahead. I'll rest for a while."

"Do you need me to attend to you, sir?"

"Nah, it's alright. I'll just close my eyes for a bit." Renault waved his hand, his hands behind his head, gazing at the ceiling as he closed his eyes.

Observing this, Yaoyorozu cautiously left the room and closed the door.

Two days had passed since the battle between Endeavor and the Nomu.

During these two days, real-time footage of the battle had been enhanced and spread online.

In addition to the fight between Endeavor and Hawks, as well as their rescue efforts, Evolto, the mysterious figure who had only appeared once before during the battle of Kamino, once again entered the public's field of view and gradually gained recognition.

As everyone engaged in heated discussions about the mysterious person who had come to Endeavor's aid, the Hero Public Safety Commission released an announcement, revealing Evolto's identity as a Pro Hero. The announcement stated that he would undertake a series of special missions in the future, remaining out of the public eye.

Both the general public and the media were left feeling helpless by this revelation. However, such heroes were not uncommon. Many Pro Heroes, due to the unique nature of their Quirks and Abilities, as well as their own personalities, were unwilling to expose themselves to the spotlight. Instead, they operated in the shadows, carrying out a series of actions to maintain peace from another side.

One notable example is 'Eraser Head' Aizawa Shota.

Aizawa is someone who detests the media. Even before joining U.A. as a teacher, he had always operated at night and in secrecy. Therefore, despite the knowledge that he had taken down many formidable criminals, the media couldn't interview him or find any footage of his battles.

It was only when they first entered school that the members of Class A learned Aizawa's hero name after he demonstrated his Quirk.

Considering previous examples, the addition of Evolto didn't surprise everyone but left them feeling a bit regretful.

Because Evolto is incredibly powerful, even though he has only fought twice, anyone with keen eyes can see that his strength is on par with the top Pro Heroes. If he had more exposure, he would definitely climb the rankings in a very short time.

But for Renault, all of this doesn't matter at all. Evolto's identity is merely an excuse for him to act.

When he graduates and officially becomes a Pro Hero, that's when he will launch his attack on the No. 1 spot.

Waking up and freshening up, Renault arrived in the ground floor lobby.

There were already quite a few people at the dining table. After Renault sat down, he took the milk that Midoriya handed him.

"Thanks."

Taking a sip, Renault glanced around and noticed the absence of someone who would usually be early.

"Where's Todoroki? Has he already left?"

As for Todoroki being lazy and oversleeping, no one would believe that.

Iida provided an answer, "Todoroki-kun took a day off today. Aizawa-sensei took him home. According to him, Endeavor will return from Kyushu today."

"Oh, I see." After taking a bite of bread, Renault nodded.

It seems that things are indeed improving at Todoroki's home, and Endeavor is no longer the same as before.

As the knot in their hearts slowly unravels, Todoroki's progress will become even more apparent.

After breakfast, Renault headed to Ryukyu's office.

Although she dropped from the ninth to the tenth position in the rankings, it didn't have any impact on the operation of the office. After all, Ryukyu's office had its own capabilities, and there were numerous collaborations with businesses and daily missions, not to mention the cooperation requests from the police.

However, when Renault arrived at the office today, he was met with Hado's curious gaze.

Renault knew what that gaze meant, but with so many people around in the office, he couldn't say much, "Senpai, your expression."

"Hmm?" Hado paused for a moment, but she quickly understood the meaning behind Renault's words and nodded with a smile. "Hmm, don't worry, Renault-kun. I'll keep your secret!"

"Secret? What secret do you two have? Tell this big sister!" Ryukyu's voice came as she walked out of the office, catching the teasing tone in Hado's words.

Renault helplessly gave Hado a white eye and looked at Ryukyu. "Do I have a mission today?"

"Oh, you really don't give me face. Fine, I won't ask then, okay?" Ryukyu chuckled and shook her head, handing the file folder she had to Renault. "There's a research facility that needs to transfer its equipment. It's a batch of high-end devices, and the institute is worried about any accidents, so they've entrusted us with escorting them. This mission is for you and Nejire."

"Just research equipment? Is there a need to be so cautious?" Renault sat down on the nearby sofa, opened the file folder, and glanced through it, understanding the situation. "I see, it's the test version of a cutting-edge healing device for a terminal illness. It's normal to be cautious with something like this. But is it just the two of us, me and Senpai?"

"The other hero offices will also send two people, but you two will be the main team. Although the chances of anything happening are small, it's better to be safe than sorry." Ryukyu explained.

"Understood." Renault checked the time and didn't linger any longer. He grabbed Hado and left the office directly.
