Chapter 1

I will go straight to the point.

One, I have been reincarnated.

Two, this is the world of My Hero Academia.

Three, my new identity here is now Onpa Hibiki.

And I don't know what to expect in the future.

This is a world where having superpowers is normal. This is a world which is supposed to be fiction.

This is a world where I only bothered to browsed through only the first arc or two in my previous life before I dropped it. I have close to no idea what will happen in the future.

Should I be a hero?

In all fairness, my second life isn't that bad. I have a loving family, complete with loving parents, a doting older brother, and a cute younger sister. I am the middle child, not that I minded much about the problems that comes with being a middle child.

And our family is freaking loaded, which is a plus.

The Onpa family which I now belong to owns a huge network of businesses and corporations that mainly deals with anything related to audio electronics. Speakers, earpieces, headphones, as long as it has anything to do with sound, you can be sure that our family is involved in it one way or another.

Not gonna lie, it feels good to be a part of a rich family. I have it a lot easier than most.

I can choose the easy way out. Be the good boy that I am, do well in my studies, help run the family business and be filthy rich and subsequently comfortably set for life.

The drawback? That kind of life is definitely a life that is going to be boring as hell.

My older brother, Hideo, used to be a hero for a short while before he was forced to retire. He is older than me by a good 15 years (I'm thinking that my birth was seriously an accident due to a lack of protection). My brother didn't go into the specifics when I asked, but I knew enough to know that his spine had been injured on a mission gone wrong and that it is too dangerous for him to continue to be a hero with that kind of permanent injury. My brother then chose to retire and help my parents run the family business. He is most likely going to be the one to take over the family business.

My younger sister, Hoshi, is a cute two-year-old girl that follows me everywhere. My parents and older brother are often not at home during the day, so it is up to me and the servants to care for her and keep her company. We all love her to bits.

I am a five-year-old boy that had just awoken his quirk. A five-year-old boy with the soul of an a_d_u_l_t, but I don't think anyone is interested in that. People would be more interested in what my quirk is.

It is Sound Wave Manipulation, but my family and I call it Sound Wave for short.

I guess it makes sense for me to have such a quirk considering the family I was born into. My family has been in the audio business for generations. My father has a quirk that allows him to change his voice into any sound he wants. My mother has a mutant type quirk that gives her bat wings and bat ears. My brother has a quirk that allows him to use his voice to lull people to sleep. It came as no surprise that his hero name used to be 'Jigglypuff' (Yes, the Pokemon franchise is a thing here). My sister is still too young for her quirk to manifest, but we have no doubt that it will be related to sound one way or another.

I laughed at my brother's alias for a good whole 15 minutes when I first learnt about it.

I guess my quirk is a lot more versatile when compared to my family. I don't just manipulate sound itself. I can manipulate sound waves to do all sort of different things. I can utilise echolocation like my mother can. I can amplify and reduce sounds at a whim. I can change the frequency, pitch, timbre, pressure, or whatever factors that affects sound itself with enough training.

I am only five this year.

I know sonic weapons are a thing. I am a living sonic weapon if I ever chose to use my quirk for less than stellar purposes. And ain't that a scary thought? Such powers held in the hands of a child that cannot tell right from wrong at this age?

Tells you a lot about the danger lurking about in the society we live in.

Should I become one? Do I even want to become one?

I don't know, but I sure as hell don't want to live a boring life. Especially so when I have been fortunate enough to be given a second chance.

So, I decide to take the option that can give me a little more excitement.

I don't think there is a point in trying to stick to canon since heck, most of my knowledge of it is non-existent. I will just do whatever I want.

Hopefully, people that shouldn't die won't die from my appearance in this world.

Not like I would know since I have so little knowledge about canon anyway.

Elementary school sucks.

I hate studying.

I hate being stuck with noisy brats.

I hate being stuck with noisy brats that just won't stop harping my ears off and trying to be friends with me simply because I am an Onpa.

My family is just that famous and influential.

Problem is, one characteristic of my quirk is that I have superhuman hearing. My ears are extremely s_e_n_s_i_t_i_v_e to noise, to the point that I have to constantly wear ear mufflers tailored to my specific needs at all times. Even then, it does not guarantee that my ears will always be protected. Without the mufflers, everything is a loud mess that hurts my head to the point I will just curl up on the floor and scream from the pain. I can somewhat control the explosion of audio input to an extent, but I am not that proficient in controlling my quirk yet.

My mufflers definitely do not protect me from a hoard of screaming banshees known as elementary school children.

It's not like these children want to befriend me out of the goodness of their hearts. Either their parents told them to, or they did it to be with the 'cool' kids in class in order to elevate their 'status'.

Just let me out of here.

It came as no surprise that I chose to be a quiet person in school. As much as I want to tell these children to f_u_c_k off, I do have an image to uphold since I am an Onpa. So, all I can do is to plaster a polite smile on my face, give some subtle or maybe not so subtle hints for them to leave me alone and please stop screaming like banshees, and then cross my fingers and hope for the best.

And when the recess bell rings, I would always be the first to disappear before anyone can rope me into any of their stupid childish activities in order for them to ”get to know Hibiki-sama better”.

God, how did my older brother survive his elementary school days?

I don't want to be swamped by people who sees me as nothing more but the son of my father. I just want my temporary peace and quiet. Hence, I never once visited the cafeteria to buy and eat my meals. I always pack my meals which my mother prepares for me and then eat it quietly on the rooftops, enjoying the temporary silence.
