180 Chapter 182
"I'm on my way," Lee said to Night Eye on the phone before he threw the phone into his pocket. The girls were looking at him, curious why his mood has changed.
Lee, on his way, gave Rumi a welcoming kiss before handing her an amulet that contained water within it.
"Open it up and drink the water within it. Follow me then. We'll have to meet the Hero Association."
Rumi only looked at her amulet with curiosity.
"I think I know what's about. Rumi, you would be invited for that meeting as well."
Yu was looking at her phone. Apparently, she got a message from Pro Hero Association to have a meeting. Top heroes across the country are all invited.
"Mm…" Rumi nodded as her long rabbit twitched. As a rabbit woman, her hearing was very strong. Rumi knew exactly that it's something that concerns the safety of the country.
"What's this about?" Itsuka asked although she knew it's about the remaining of the villains.
"League of Villains, again."
"Not this time." Lee sighed. "A rebellion is behind them. An army. I will get more details when I go."
According to Night Eye, their action of killing All For One
'The damn butterfly effect'
Lee could not help but sigh. The butterfly effect was a scientific theory, of how can a simple butterfly flapping its wings above a very far cold mountain causes some tornadoes in America a few weeks later.
Nothing to do other than accepting the future and face its outcome. Lee looked at the girls.
Whatever army is behind the league of villains now, it would face those little girls – not that little – and him.
-x-X-x-
Lee got out of the elevator with Rumi and Yu. The two girls were wearing their hero costume, while Lee was wearing his casual ones: A black shirt, leather jeans, and some watch.
As Lee had been called earlier, he had been invited into a meeting with the top heroes in this country participating.
The fact that he is invited explains a lot how much value he is considered here.
But to Lee, he was here to beat the shit out of someone who has called Julia a whore.
It still pisses him off that he cannot let it go.
Anyway, once Lee and the girls have entered, they found familiar figures. One of them is the new third-ranked hero, Hawk, a blonde man with wings, who was leaning back. Best Jeanist was here as well with Aizawa, so Kan and Midnight. Some were sitting, while some were standing.
The outstanding figure was obviously the strongest hero here – known as the strongest – All Might.
When one looks around, one can say that the top twenty heroes are here. Not only so, but the principals of the heroic academies were here as well.
Lee's eyes then crossed with an old middle-aged woman and a middle-aged man. These two were known figures. The ones who pay heroes and are on the lead of the Pro Hero Association.
The middle-aged woman opened her mouth to speak.
"I think we have enough figures to start talking; Night Eye and Hawk, you can start talking."
The blond winged woman faked a cough, took a step forward, and then he took a remote from his pocket and lit up a projector.
"Fellow heroes," he said, his tone so relaxed and his facial expression carefree. "As you can see, you are to witness a ticking bomb… as you see; Sir Night Eye here has been looking for the Nomus developers and the League of Villains. Thanks to Lee there, we have enough clues. Given the last development, we discovered more dangerous things."
Hawk then paused for a second and then he said. "Should I say that, or Night Eye?"
The aged woman shook her head.
Hawk continued. "Well, have anyone heard about the Meta Liberation army."
Lee lifted his head. Since he has the Big Brain move that he had used in tests, he is aware of the history.
"A troublesome group who made a revolution to give all the humans the right to use their Quirks without resection. Leading to public damage and uncontrolled casualties." Lee said.
"Ara~ Ara~. Someone is paying attention to classes." Midnight, the curvy pretty teacher, said teasingly. "And here I thought all the boys like to check out."
"You are aware?" Lee asked.
"Of course. My job is to give you the motivation to wake up early for classes." Midnight crossed her arms on her chest, making the watermelon-sized breasts jiggle in an attractive move.
Lee did not dare to smirk when Yu held his hand tightly and glared at Midnight.
"Relax, he's my student." Night Eye rolled her eyes at Yu.
"Ahem, ahem." The other heroes started faking coughs around.
"Anyway, since it's clear, we can get to the point." Night Eye stepped forward and took the remote from Hawk. Another picture of a city appeared. "As you can see, this city is now where the League of Villains are resting. Because of the investigations, we have reached another result." The picture on the screen changed. "The Meta Library Army is coming back. They have been preparing for a revolution very soon. As you see, this city, with its people, heroes, and everyone, are involved in the army. All are high-trained elites with the goal of liberation. Somehow, Dabi, Twice, and the Doctor who is making the Nomu, has interacted with each other."
The heroes have shown different reactions from terrified, anxious, and worried.
A city like that has at least a population of a hundred thousand. If everyone is highly trained with using their quirks, then they would cause mass damage if they attacked snakingly when no one is aware of them."
"This is not the worse of it." Night Eye continued. "What one has to know is they are under the League of Villains for now. The League of Villain, unfortunately, has developed Trigger. Its effect is longer and stronger in boosting quirks."
Lee opened his eyes widely. He just remembered what Enji was murmuring of while being in a coma. 'Trigger, Nomu… he was trying to warn them.'
Night Eye then sighed. "It's our only solution to make a huge gather of heroes across the country and attack first."
"Worry not for that." All Might clench his fists, his eyes showing a glint of fire. "I am here."
Lee rolled his eyes while everyone showed a sign of optimism.
The rest then discussed the heroes' plans. How they are planning to make the heroes gather from the country, and then, they discussed the other problem.
"As for the lack of the number on our side," the woman from the Pro Hero Association said. "We are planning to make the Heroic Academies force the students to have an internship before the ambush on them," she said while looking at the known principles around the country.
"They can do help from the backsides. The newer the generation, the better the quirks they have." One of the principals spoke.
Lee flinched and looked at them as if they were bastard.
"Why don't you just tell them the truth?" Lee said.
"Desperate measurements for desperate times."
A man who was wearing a tuxedo answered instead of the woman.
Lee rolled his eyes and clicked his tongue.
"A bunch of politicians." He meant that as an insult. Lee, somehow, felt pissed off on these people, before he turned to walk away. Yu and Rumi prepared to follow him after.
"Lee, don't worry, with me there, the student's job would be to provide the first aids for the others." All Might said, full of confidence.
Lee was still about to leave the meeting earlier than everyone.
"Lee, wait." The woman spoke.
Lee turned, "What?" he asked with a lazy tone.
"I'll have you to know early." She said with a foxy smirk. "After the ambush. I believe that you may be the youngest hero who would enter the top 10 ranks. No, possibly the top 3."
Lee gazed at the people from the Pro Hero association.
They surely think that he's young.
However, Lee is not stupid. He has a big brain.
"Keep that for yourself." Lee shook his finger. "I'm leaving this country once I'm done beating the shit out of Dabi." Lee's intent is to beat someone. Then, naturally, he will have a school transfer out of this place. Being top-ten in a country where people can hate you for catching a serial killer isn't a place worth staying. As long as he is having his women with him, he can move anywhere.
Everyone then looked at Lee, shocked.
"Lee…" All Might clench his fist. "Don't lose your faith in heroes."
Almost everyone is silent.
Lee just refused the fame's seduction, just because he does not like the dirty move from the Pro Hero Association.
While everyone was looking at his back, Lee reached the door.
"Don't forget to call me."
Lee then left through the door.
