35 Who are you? (1/2)
Five months had passed in the blink of an eye. All Might's training was pretty harsh, but not as much as Izuku anticipated.
About half of the beach was cleaned, which surprised All Might. He even suspected that Izuku used his quirk but he denied that.
He didn't mind doing All Might's training routine, but he wasn't satisfied with only improving his strength.
'If I try to raise my strength, I won't have time to practice with my quirks. I need to somehow figure out the way to increase my strength and practice my quirks at the same time.' Izuku thought.
”HM? YOUNG MIDORIYA, WHY ARE YOU SPACING OUT FOR?” asked All Might.
”It's nothing, I was only wondering how to train my body and quirks at the same time.” Izuku replied.
”I SEE.. WELL.. I AM NOT REALLY FAMILIAR WITH YOUR QUIRK, BUT YOU CAN USE IT AS LONG AS IT DOESN'T HELP YOU WITH CLEANING THE BEACH.” All Might said.
Izuku looked at him in excitement and asked, ”Really? Do you mean it?”
”SURE, I WOULDN'T WANT YOU TO FALL BEHIND OTHERS IN TERMS OF QUIRK POWER AND QUIRK CONTROL.” All Might continued, ”ALRIGHT YOUNG MIDORIYA, I HAVE AN APPOINTMENT. I AM AFRAID I WILL HAVE TO LEAVE YOU AGAIN. WORK HARD MAKE ME PROUD!” sighed All Might.
”Sure, I will do my best!” Izuku replied.
Once All Might left, Izuku spotted a blonde haired girl, staring at him from the distance. The moment he locked eyes with her, she was visibly stunned.
The unknown girl waved at him and went towards Izuku.
'I hope she means no trouble.' Izuku thought.

'What?! Is this an enemy? No, from the quest it looks like she is neutral, but I still need to be on guard.' Izuku thought.
The girl stopped in front of him and greeted him with a friendly smile, ”Heya! How did you see me? I am usually unnoticeable! My name is Himiko Toga! What is yours?” Himiko asked him.
Izuku hesitantly replied, ”My name is Izuku Midoriya. What business do you have with me?”
”I have none! I just saw you yesterday when I was passing by the place. You were working really hard! When I was little, I used to visit this place with my parents a lot.” Himiko replied.
Izuku nodded and asked, ”It was a beautiful beach.”
”Yeah, my parents volunteered to clean it up as well!” Himiko beamed.
”Is that so? I was here for 5 months already and I didn't see anyone here. Do they work here at night?” Izuku asked.
'If they are, then I need to tell All Might since they are practically helping me with my mission.'
”No they wanted to volunteer, but unfortunately, they died.” Himiko replied.
”Oh.. I am sorry.. I didn't know..” Izuku apologized.
”Don't worry it's fine, but you need to keep it a secret, since no one besides me knows.” Himiko smiled.
”What is that supposed to m-” Izuku choked on his question. His eyes widened in horror as he figured out what she meant.
Seeing his face Himiko's grin grew bigger and more sinister, ”I was really hungry.. So, I killed them.”
Hearing that, Izuku immediately jumped away from her.
”Oh? Where are you going?” Himiko asked, clearly confused.
”Wh-Wh-What?! What is your purpose here! Why were you watching me?!” Izuku shouted in fear.
'This girl is completely nuts, do I fight her? No, I need to run!' Izuku thought.
He could feel his gamers mind calming him down, but it couldn't keep up.
”Um. I since I saw you yesterday, I wanted to see whether you will be here today as well, and you were! So I observed you for while.” replied Himiko.
Izuku's face darkened, ”How much did y- How long were you watching me for?”
Himiko massaged her head with her hands to try and remember the exact time until she finally got it. ”Ah, I was here since like 4 am. I had nothing to do so I just stood there.” Himiko pointed at the place where he first saw her.
'What?! It's 2pm! She was observing me for so long and I didn't even notice her until now?! Does that mean she saw me with All Might?! Did All Might not notice her as well? This is bad.' Izuku thought.
”Ah.. I see.. You were standing there for quite a some time huh.. Aren't you like.. I don't know.. hungry? I have some food if you want to?” asked Izuku.
”Wow! Really?! I am starving!” Himiko jumped up and down in joy.
'I need to run, or I will die. My instincts are screaming death. I still have one more option left. I could drug her food and hand her over to authorities.'
Izuku thought about the special drug that he found when he was cleaning this place a month ago. He found an old medkit with some weird looking bottles.
He used observe and found out the medkit was full of bottles with a paralyze poison. Paralyze poison was usually used on bears and dangerous animals.
Izuku put his hand into his backpack and used his inventory. For him, this was a perfect disguise. He does it a lot when he is around someone. He grabbed his lunchbox, he carefully opened it and dipped poison in his pancakes. After that, he gently handed it to Himiko.
