It was a new day. Lee was in front of his laptop while surfing the web.
Because of his performance, Lee was picked up between the offers he got, from the professional heroes.
But because of the large number of those who wanted him to try experience under them, Lee was a bit confused.
He didn't want to make a rush choice, so he wouldn't regret it later.
"This is too cringe."
"This hero likes fashion too much."
"Not this one."
He was randomly picking up the offers and trying to choose between of them, as they would be the place where he's going to spend the vacation.
Lee let a deep sigh when he looked at one name in his list.
Mount Lady.
For three days, they had been talking on the phone, and things were good, only if he had been single.
Thinking of her, Lee shook his head and didn't know if he should go to her as a sidekick.
He hadn't a full self-trust that nothing would happen if he stayed with her for 24 hours a day for the rest of the vacation.
But he was considering that choice seriously.
Suddenly, the door got opened.
His mom had come back, and she had a bright expression on her face.
Lee started to think about the time after the Festival.
Ever since then, she had been showing wariness and concern about his safety.
Usually, she would take him out of the country, but the power-up he got, so she, made her think it'd be best to stay with him and protect him.
"Lee…" Julia took off her coat, kicked her boots, and went to sit on the couch, next to him. "What are you doing?"
"Just looking for a non-cringe hero."
Julia let her eyes wander his laptop, seeing if he's watching anything shady.
But her kid was only looking through the agencies and heroes profiles, and rumours about their personalities.
She decided to joke. "How about me."
"You didn't send me an offer, and you aren't working."
Julia rested her head on his shoulder and picked up a group of papers which had a long list of names. She pretended to seriously try to pick up a one.
"Well… how about Yu," she said with a teasing tone. Once she saw him flinching, she giggled. "Or, things may get hot there."
"You know the story." Lee sighed.
Julia looked at Lee and touched his face, which made him stop surfing and stare at her. She knew that her kid was handsome, very handsome and attractive, which can make him a womaniser if he wanted. But he was good and a considering person for his girlfriend. He wouldn't go to Mount Lady, that for a fact.
She would be proud of him no matter what. But, however, there is something that had been concerning her. The villains, who may be attacked at the Sports Festival, may come back.
That's why she had made a deal with someone, of course, after making things clear.
"Why don't you try this agency?" She said, pointing to the first one on the list, "Julia pointed to one of the best agencies in the country, which she had been there a moment ago.
"I don't know; he seems to have anger issues," Lee said as he scanned the list with her. It wasn't a bad choice. But to go to such agency under someone so ambitious, yet losing every time to All Might, seemed to be a lot of job for him. "And I don't like his attitude."
"Nah. That place is at least safe." Julia sighed. She wouldn't suggest that usually, but at least she can guarantee his safety there, with hero and sidekicks working there.
She had guaranteed that Lee wouldn't know everything. She picked up her phone and looked at some embarrassing pics for a guy that she beat a day ago.
"Why are you smiling?"
Lee asked her when he saw her giggling.
Julia shut her phone and waved her hand, "nothing. Try to work there. I'll pick you up once you get bored. Or you know, you can come back home."
"Whatever," Lee lifted his head.
"Are you thinking about Itsuka? Or Mt Lady."
"Mom, I prefer not to discuss such a thing with you."
"Ho ho…" She grabbed his cheek forcefully. "So now you grow up that you think yourself an a.d.u.l.t."
"I am an a.d.u.l.t."
"Not in my eyes." Julia let her face closer to his cheek and gave him a kiss there. Lee only hide his smile and turned his face. She let his cheek, red, and said, "Anyway, try that one. Unless you want harem troubles."
"Yeah, I think you're right."
Julia then stood up and went to her room. She picked up a phone and scanned a group of pictures before laughing.
"Sweet revenge."
Usually, she wouldn't suggest that Lee to go to his asshole father's agency, but, because of the Life Ripple gave her, she was able to make some guarantees, as her Quirk and strength increased dramatically.
"Hehe…" She still laughed as she looked at the pics. There was a message underneath them.
[Don't you dare publish them, Julia?]
[Only if you keep that a secret.]
[I had agreed on that. He's my kid as well. But I'm asking, what did you do to increase your Quirk's potentials. There is no way your Quirk evolve that much…]
[First, he's my kid, only mine. Second, yes, I used a trick to get more power. And third I won't tell you. GFY.]
Enji was thinking about how to increase power more than about the fact he had got beaten by her. Well, knowing him, she could tell that he think about surpassing All Might all of the time, that he won't care about that he got defeated, sneakily.
She giggled as she threw her phone. Enji seemed to more concern about how to improve his Quirk, but she would never tell him that it was thanks to her lovely boy.
She yesterday had decided that it was time to visit Enji since she wanted to guard Lee when he isn't there. Although she didn't like it, Lee's safety came first. However, she didn't want him to get corrupted by that guy. So, she decided to use the advantage of the power-up she got.
She had gone to Endeavour company, and he had welcomed her in his place, only after letting her wait for two hours, which only served to acc.u.mulate her anger.
When she had got to his office, she had closed the door and smiled at Enji's face, which made him look stunned.
The next second, she used the advantage of her power-up in both Quirk and physical strength and had vanished in front of his eyes. Before he could say anything, she had appeared behind him, and slapped the back of his head, making him fall unconscious after using her quirk on his brain.
'And he was still wearing his Teddy Bear panties.'
Julia had taken some pics of him, which she knew that Enji would rather die than getting those pics published.
When he had woke up and seen the pics, he had tried to fight his way, but she was too fast and had messed temporarily with his brain speed, which made him forced to listen. She had told him everything would be okay, as long as he doesn't persuade Lee and keep things professional when she sends him. He had been surprised, and somehow not believing that she would send their kid here again. But he seemed to be more concerned about the embarrassing pics she had taken for him. And before he could even snatch the phone from her, she had already left his company and was here, texting him.
God, how it felt good to beat him after all of these years.
"Hahahaha…." Although I don't like violence, it's necessary. And she laughed.
"Mom… are you okay." Lee suddenly opened the door of her room, concerned. "You don't laugh usually like that. I thought it was some gas or something happened."
"Nothing, nothing." Julia smiled at him. "What do you want to order for dinner?"
Lee lifted his eyes. "Pizza."
"Sounds good." Julia stood up, walked past him, and grabbed his cheeks with a smile before going out of her apartment to bring pizza.
"You look happy."
"Only if you know."
