Chapter 43

Title: Genius...

…

Later on in the day, Kaminari is training by himself in the school gym. Night came about and he is still training, manipulating the iron sand around him with such impeccable control that would make most people think that he has had this ability for years.

He then takes a can and holds it in his palm. And starts manipulating the electricity around it creating a chain reaction that crushes the can but he is not satisfied with this and tries to make it into a metal sphere.

...

He succeeds in doing so twenty minutes later, his forehead covered in sweat due to the crazy amount of concentration that took. It could easily crush the can, but he values control more than raw power in this scenario. After all, while his Quirk was built to be a raw power type, with the control he has reached new possibilities.  

He then shoots the ball like a <Railgun>.

BOOOM!!

It burns a hole through a hill, but fifty meters later, due to the friction, the ball burns off. Kaminari already has started having some special coins built for him. Coins that don't burn off so easily due to friction. He doesn't mind having the power of science on his side. Even then, this is a clear weakness on Kaminari's part. Many heroes don't use technology to raise their abilities, afraid of becoming dependent on it. Some even look down on people like that. 

But Kaminari knows that his powers work on science and doesn't have such useless pride. The Nomus are created by science and those things can beat most of the heroes in the world.

Though Kaminari still wants to figure out a way that he can use his <Railgun> to its full potential without relying on these coins. Even with all the power he has obtained, he sees himself as weak. He knows that Aizawa with a gun can kill him in less than 10 seconds. That is the terrifying reality that brings chills down his spine.

'I need to get stronger, much stronger. But how? I don't know how to remove friction. Even with my Quirk experiencing a kind of Evolution now that I can control the electricity outside of my body… l still have limits.' 

He doesn't like that at all, but that is the daunting reality of the situation. Every Quirk has a limit of course, though some might seem limitless in power, like All For One can only have as much power as all the Quirks in the world if he stole them all. That is the Quirk with the widest limit, but for a Quirk like that, the user is the only limit. 

'If a Quirk like All For One was in my hands…' Wonders Kaminari, a smirk appearing on his face. But he shakes those thoughts out of his head. It wouldn't be as useful to him even if he could somehow miraculously get it. After all, when someone steals a Quirk, he doesn't take just the good things, he takes the bad too. Like a Strengthening Quirk that requires one to burn their fat. That would be an obvious advantage, but a disadvantage at the same time. Also because of that, All For One will never get too many Quirks, because they would destroy him due to their side effects.

"Ah~ youthful men are truly something else." Comes a voice from the entry. Kaminari doesn't need to turn around to know who it is. 

"Midnight -sensei, sorry, I am gonna be finishing this training soon." Says Kaminari, his head all in the game, he doesn't bother with her.

Midnight sees this and walks closer to him, she is currently not wearing her hero uniform. Instead, she is in her civilian clothes and wearing glasses. "You should enjoy school life more. I see that you have only been training these last months. A Hero isn't someone who is only strong."

Kaminari stops in the middle of his exercise and looks at Midnight, barely able to hide his contempt. "I understand, I will keep that in mind."

He then goes back to his training and pulls out another empty can. Trying to make a miniature sword out of it just by using his electric control. 

Midnight frowns at this and comes behind him and her hands massage his shoulders lightly and seductively.

She huffs. "Yep~ just as expected, you are very tense."

Kaminari sighs at the situation, knowing that he won't be able to get out of this easily. In the end, he just leans back and falls on the ground, Midnight's face covers his view of the training ground ceiling. 

"This is so troublesome." Kaminari complains. "If you came here to do something with me then I would be happy. But I don't wanna hear just another lecture, I know my body the best, I am not overworking it."

Midnight smirks with a seductive look in her eyes. "Ara~ who said I am not here to do something with you? It is so late that no one uses these training grounds."

She leans forward and clasps Kaminari's cheek seductively. But unlike what she expected, this makes him chuckle, as if amused by the situation.

"Your Hero reputation really doesn't suit you at all." Kaminari says with a knowing look in his yellow eyes as if he had seen right through her. 

This creeps her out a little. 'As the principal said, Kaminari has a genius level of intelligence.'

Still, she sits down next to him and looks at the ceiling with him. "We Heroes aren't working for nothing. We want you to feel no need to stress yourself too much."

"..." Kaminari doesn't say anything at that. He honestly would like to relax, but with his knowledge of the future, he can't do that. 'As soon as I am foolish enough to let my guard down, I will be surpassed and killed by the others. I then will become just one of the nameless losers in this world. My story being nothing special.'

Midnight takes his silence as progress and he is contemplating something. But the next thing that he says shocks her.

"This dorm thing… it isn't just as a way to protect the student is it?" Kaminari asks, already knowing the answer to this. He might have forgotten a lot of what seems unimportant in the Manga that he read in his previous life. But he can understand what is going on here. "The 2nd time, in the forest, only a small number of people knew where we were going. We have a spy amongst us… So you all also made this dormitory to observe the students. The school suspects that the spy might be one of the students."

Midnight was frozen in shock, Kaminari had hit the nail in the head. 

"Wanna hear my suspicion on who is the spy?" Asks Kaminari, he gets up and Midnight immediately is on guard. Suspicious of Kaminari immediately, she expected him to be intelligent for his age. But this goes beyond just a simple genius. 

She pulls up her sleeve, ready to release her knockout gas.

"Hahaha~ just joking sensei." He laughs as he sees Midnight on guard. Kaminari can destroy her in less than a second. So he didn't need to take her seriously at all, as even her Quirk is useless against him. "But really though, I doubt that anyone in the facility or U.A student is a spy… you must think higher."

"Higher?" Midnight wonders what he means by that. But then she gest another shock. 'He means the Top Heroes.'

She is about to ask him more, but he just makes a silencing motion by putting his finger in front of his lips. "Don't go around revealing this to just anyone Midnight -sensei, because if that information gets on the wrong hands… then we are f.u.c.k.i.e.d."

After saying that, Kaminari covers his body in electricity which has a yellow tinge to it. His hair stands up and his eyes shine golden.

*bzzzzt*

He then disappears in a yellow flash. Leaving Midnight to ponder the things that he said to her.

….

-Kaminari POV-

As I go towards the dormitory, I can't help but contemplate if what I did was the right thing. Now the surveillance towards me will increase exponentially, but I must start building my credibility as a smart person who likes to keep things to himself. The Villains must start getting eliminated now, no need to let sc.u.m live any longer.

The most troublesome ones must go first. 

*sigh* Why can't my life be easier, if only I was reborn with some mind control quirk, everything would be a hundred times easier.

Still, though, things will start getting serious now. People around me could start dying if I am not careful, and while I wouldn't sacrifice my life for another. I still don't like to have my friends and people I have started to care about get killed. 

Damn though, meeting Midnight is kinda disappointing. From how she is portrated she seems like a s.l.u.tty woman, but after observing her some more, I know that she would never do anything unprofessional with a student like me. 

….

A/N: Midnight is surprisingly quite profesional in her job. It is seen in the Manga multiple times. Also she doesn't seem to be the kind to sleep around from what we have seen of her story.

P.S: I have gotten surprisingly good with redstone, I have my own secret base now. (If this is confusing anyone, I am talking about Minecraft.)
