Yui's Quirk

Coincidentally, today it was my turn to clean the classroom, and Yui volunteered to help me, so in the end we were left alone in the classroom. Having finished with the board and chairs, I sat on the edge of the desk. There was nowhere to rush, and I had already completed the daily quest. Eh, I haven't had any luck with dungeon keys lately.

Yui obediently sat down on the chair opposite me and prepared to listen. It occurred to me that this was almost the first time in recent years that I had sat quietly and communicated with a person of the opposite sex and "my" age. Well, I'm starting to relax... what's next? Will I start playing video games and watching anime again? I already forgot when it was.

- "Good, Kodai-san. What exactly interests you?"

- "Demi-senpai, I am grateful to you for letting me know that my strength is not as weak as I thought and that you are ready to help me"

 I frowned:

- "Kodai, let's go without all these... formality and etiquette. I'm a simple guy from a normal family (just an orphan, and my father is Allmight =_=)."

- "H-good...Demi.. - she took a deep breath and concentrated, - first of all, I would very much hope to receive some advice regarding the strategy of my preparation. Secondly, if this is not excessive arrogance on my part, I would like to know your general strategy."

I even had a smile on my face.

Asking about the details of work and other people's quirks is, one might say, bad form. This is not accepted. And few people will answer even theoretically - everyone has their own tricks and secrets. What if even the villain finds out about some of your weaknesses...

Are there any secrets to how I train? Stupid question. Of course I have. My system is secret, and if the information is revealed, I will become a target for all villain, as well as the government, which will want to get many things for personal use.

What, then, can I tell her? About the benefits of martial arts and daily exhausting physical training? It's doubtful, her quirk is not very geared towards close combat, and... ah-ha-ha, well, who am I kidding, of course I will tell her this!

Whatever the abilities of a hero or villain, physical fitness, tactical prowess, and fighting ability are almost more important factors than quirk.

Moreover, I already have an idea of how she could use her quirk in combination with combat training... But first, I still need to understand what I'm dealing with - and how sad everything is.

- "Did someone teach you something? How to handle your power, I mean. How to develop it, how to train it?"

- "N-no, - Seeing my doubts, she quickly added: - but I'm ready to reveal all the details of how my quirk works if necessary."

The girl was completely desperate. How is it even possible that with such a promising power, no one taught it before me?

Well, yes, it's not Momo.

On the other hand, the world is full of incredibly powerful quirks. I think that the governments of countries are more concerned that the owners of quirks do not become a problem and villains, and whether they will turn out to be an intelligent hero - given the widespread desire to become one - is not so important.

There will be someone to choose from in any case. And those who really strive for heaven will find it themselves and learn it themselves,

- "Fine. My quirk... its specialized training will be useless for you, but you yourself probably understand the general principles of training. Do you train your breathing and cardiovascular system, develop endurance?"

She answered me with a blank look.

Adding skepticism to my gaze, I paraphrased:

- "You run? In the mornings, in the evenings, except for physical education?"

Oh, there's a hit. Yui, no less than trying to embarrass me with an embarrassed blush, stared at her desk and muttered "no." Well, I think it's pointless to ask about self-defense lessons. I figured out how to approach her differently. And I thought this way, this way, and that way...

-"Then let's do this - tell me first how you see the use of your quirk in the future, in a heroic career.

Based on this, I can understand how to supplement your tactics in battle, how to expand your arsenal of techniques, and what you need to pay your attention to. Is it clear?"

 - "Okay..."-  the brunette, blinking, quickly collected her thoughts and began to express what, most likely, she had never told anyone before. I can't say I felt flattered. Besides, I was sure that I already knew exactly what she would say.

- "I think... I used to think that my quirk was only suitable for remote support of allies at a distance and also, maybe, defense. For the first, it seems to me, For the second, I planned to carry with me something like a bag or several pockets with solid small items like... nuts, bolts, coins, maybe some records or bottle caps... I can quickly enlarge them and make a shield out of them."

And yet... In her hands again was a phone with a key fob, apparently she had it instead of a rosary. He twists, turns and calms down. I was surprised to recognize the Allmight-doll in the bright figurine hanging.

Funny... As I thought, what Yui said was one hundred percent consistent with what she showed in my past-future. The past for me, the future for her...

A direct, ram-like approach to interacting with objects. 

No invention or resourcefulness. 

It is strange that in that world other professional hero-teachers did not tell her more sophisticated tactics.

Hmm... Well, no, things won't work that way. Stopping her with a gesture, I gave her something like a directive:

- "Here's your homework from me personally, Kodai. Prepare something like an article on your quirk, where absolutely everything will be summarized: ways to use your quirk that you can imagine. Of course, they must be useful, practically applicable and potentially possible, but otherwise we do not have to limit ourselves. For example, in resources or in the complexity of impact."

The girl noticed with all seriousness.

- "When it's ready, we'll go to the park after school?""

- "Great. Well... see you tomorrow then, Yui Kodai."

- "See you tomorrow, senpa... Demi..."
