72 The Letter (1/2)
Midoriya residence... 9 am.
Izuku woke up and felt like it was too bright outside. He looked at his phone and exclaimed, ”Damn... I slept like a log. I need to get up. I missed my morning jog.”
He pushed off the blanket and remembered that both of them were still naked.
After yesterday's experience, Izuku wasn't that bashful anymore, at least not when he saw Himiko's body. If anyone else other than Himiko saw him naked, he would still be embarrassed about it though.
He quickly put his clothes on and did his daily routine of running.
Nothing interesting happened for the rest of the day.
His mom arrived home and they talked for a while. Apparently, they had an urgent operation last night and she was still tired. As for Himiko, she was still mad about yesterday. She simply couldn't forget how Izuku brushed her off but she still slept in bed with him.

3 more days have passed and it was Friday, the day of the written exam.
Izuku thought that he will at least have some time to spend with Itsuka and Kacchan but the moment he arrived in front of the academy. Nezu pulled him into his office and foiled his plan.
”Long time no see! I see that your arm is well.” Nezu greeted him.
Izuku sat down on one of the chairs in the room and brought out an old wine from his inventory. ”Yes, I am already fine. Do you want a glass?”
Even though Nezu saw his quirk in action before it always manages to amaze him. He took a glass from Izuku and replied, ”Thanks for your kind gesture, but aren't you a little too young to be drinking like this? I am sure you are smart enough not to drink much, but I still have to worry about my genius student.”
Izuku smiled and replied, ”It helps me relax. Anyway, I have a question. Wasn't I supposed to be doing the written exam at this moment?”
”It's just a small test. I don't see why you should be doing it. You are admitted anyway. Hey... Won't you play with me instead?” Nezu smiled and drank his wine.
”Oh? And what kind of game are we playing? I know the rules of shogi and chess and I also played some 'Go' and 'Reversi' before.” Izuku replied.
”Let's go with chess. It's been a long time since I've played with someone. Its probably because there wasn't anyone willing to play with me.” Nezu made a sad face and Izuku wanted to laugh.
'Not gonna lie...It's cute when Nezu sulks and I feel like I know why no one played with him...Who would want to play a game when they are guaranteed to lose?'
Nezu pulled out small magnetic chess from his closet and said, ”Let's have fun!
************************************************
30 minutes later.
Nezu was fuming with anger. He already lost 7 games in a row and it wasn't fun at all. He didn't manage to win a single game. He felt like he understood how other heroes felt when they played against him.
