章 12: upgrades
After placing Ea back in the treasury, I hurried towards the collapsed duo. There, I saw a sight which I had expected but still surprised me. Instead of All Might, the person beside Aizawa was a short, skinny, blond man who looked like he could die at any moment. I, of course, already knew what was going on, thanks to my transcendental knowledge. So, instead of being surprised, I helped the two up before handing them two potions from my treasury.
"There we go. Drink these potions. Not only will they heal your injuries, but they'll also make you even stronger than you were before. In your case," I pointed to All Might, or rather his husk, "It will extend the time you can use that power of yours. You'll both probably want to do some tests to see how far you've grown."
All Might widened his eyes. "H-how did you know?"
I raised one eyebrow. "Seriously? It was so obvious you might as well have printed it on t-shirts and sold them. Also, didn't I tell you? I'm extra smart." I bragged a lot, but it was mostly my transcendental knowledge of events that have and will happen that did the work. Everything is obvious if you know it's there.
Feeling face slapped for the second time that day, All Might, or I guess he now was Toshinori Yagi, decided to say nothing and drink the potion. When the duo drank the miracle fluid, which I did not know existed mere seconds before, they immediately noticed the effects. Every injury they had, be it visible or otherwise, vanished without a trace. That included the damage Toshinori had received during his fight with his arch-nemesis, All For One. It was that injury, in combination with him passing his power on to Midoriya, that resulted in his drastically reduced prowess. It was, funnily enough, that same injury that prompted him to pass on his quirk in the first place, as injured state and arch-nemesis being still alive created a sense of urgency in the no.1 hero.
The potion was a miracle fluid in every sense of the word. Not only did it remove every ailment the duo had, but it also strengthened their bodies significantly. For Toshinori, that meant that even with his quirk passed on to Midoriya, he still wielded strength that was far from matching his original power but still being well above human limits. It also meant that his "Muscle Form," which was his regular state before his injury, became his regulars state once again. All this signified the end of him having to hide his weakness, but it also meant having to put more effort into each fight. This could be easily mitigated by focusing on technique rather than raw power, but I was not feeling like teaching the teacher just yet.
The potion was not only effective on Toshinori but Aizawa as well. However, because the state of his powers was way less complicated than Toshinori's, his upgrades were way less interesting. His physical strength, speed, agility, and senses all got a considerable boost, to the point that he was now able to rival the more physically focused heroes without using his quirk. The potion went even as far as giving him an immunity to almost all common diseases, but that was not something they noticed on the spot.
After being both beaten and upgraded in a short timeframe, they were unsure of what to do next. They stood amidst the ruins of Ground Beta, trying to think of words of gratitude. It took me saying something to finally get the two numbskulls moving.
"You know, you guys should probably notify the principal of what happened here, lest he mobilizes the cities forces on me."
The two showed faces of realization, before bowing politely and running off towards the main building.
"Oh, one more thing!" I yelled, getting their attention. I stared them down with the most serious face I had made since coming to this world. I did this for a full minute, making the two almost urinate themselves.
"Since I beat you guys up and then made you stronger, are we considered bros now?"
silence
"I'll take that as a yes. Anyway, I'm holding a small party with the rest of the class. You're welcome to stop by if you feel like it. I know you both have my address, so I'll see you both later."
After talking with the duo, I sprinted towards my house at top speed. After seeing me fly to and from my house, Midoriya had notified me that using your quirk in public had rules attached to it, and you could probably get arrested for recklessly doing so. Since then, I had refrained from using what had become my favorite mode of transportation, to my frustration. Thankfully, my running speed was considerably high, making the loss less significant.
Ever the law-abiding citizen, it seemed I had to place all my hope in my running speed, as for the first time since coming to this world, I had messed up. I had organized a party and even invited some extremely high-profile guests, but I had prepared absolutely nothing. I had not even taken the time to decorate my house, something that should've been done whether there was a party or not. It was, quite frankly, the dryest place you would find. I only owned basic (though admittedly high-quality) appliances, yet I did not even have a rug to fill the void. I was even stupid enough to brag about my wealth, and at this rate, my word would become meaningless, a fate that absolutely could not befall the king of kings. At this point, my only option was to sprinkle some of my abundant treasures around the house. The problem was that, for some reason, Everything within the treasury was not only extremely powerful but also extremely flashy. It would be nigh impossible to find an item that was not completely golden and riddled with priceless gems and such. If I were to fill my house with those as a pitiful excuse for decoration, people would think I'm a gaudy, vain individual. Not that I cared about what others thought. No no, I was above that. But, as a supposed king, reputation matters a lot. But, matters like these would come later. First, I had to get home.
