Chapter 100 - Telepathy

Brando was watching the match between Bakugou and Uraraka until suddenly he heard a voice inside his head.

'D - Dio?'

"....."

'Did I hear someone just call my name now?' Brando thought.

'Yes!'

"..."

Brando was speechless and asked, 'Who is this?'

'It is me, Dia, desu wa,' Dia answered.

"...."

'Is this your Quirk?' Brando asked.

'Yes, my Quirk is telepathy, I can only talk with one person through my power,' Dia answered.

'Wow, that's amazing!' Brando said since then he didn't expect that her Quirk would be able to talk to anyone from the mind.

'N - Nothing, I didn't think that my Quirk would be successful enough to be used on you,' Dia answered. She didn't expect that she could talk to him since she only wanted to try it.

Brando was also surprised since her Quirk was amazing. He thought for a bit and asked, 'How is your Quirk working?'

'Well, I need to see the people that I want to talk with about my telepathy and I can hear anything if my partner doesn't want to talk with me,' Dia answered. There was another requirement before she could use her power but she didn't tell him since she was too embarrassed.

'So you're watching me now?' Brando asked.

'N - No, it's just a coincidence!' Dia answered while fl.u.s.tering.

Brando really thought that this girl was really cute even though she was older than him.

'H - Hmm, can you win against that one with ice power?' Dia asked. She didn't think that the one with glasses could beat him in the match.

'What? Are you worried about me? If that's the case then I am happy,' Brando smiled, looking in her direction.

'Bzzt! Bzzt! We come from a far away place and cheer for you so don't lose!' Dia said.

'I know I won't lose,' Brando answered.

Both of them talked to each other until the match started.

'So are they your classmates?' Dia asked.

'Yeah....' Brando explained of their power since he also wanted to talk to her.

Uraraka walked to the ring after she had rejected help from Midoriya. She wanted to win this match with her own power. Even though she knew that Midoriya had a lot of information about her first opponent,

'Why Bakugou-kun?' Uraraka couldn't understand why she had bad luck. She shook her head since she couldn't complain. She had a big dream to make her parents live a comfortable life without working hard in their life. She knew that her purpose to become a hero was because of money but a lot of people had supported her. She needed to do her best and made her parents proud.

---

Bakugou walked into the ring. He remembered the match between Todoroki and Brando. He knew that two of them were the strongest in the class. He wanted to show everyone that he was the strongest and stronger than the two of them.

'Still,' he thought that he didn't need to mimic both of them since he knew that his opponent was quite strong. Once he was touched by her, 'Then I will be defeated.' He couldn't let her touch him no matter what.

---

"Dio, do you think that Uraraka has a chance to win?" Ojiro asked.

"....." Brando, who was talking with Dia through telepathy, stopped and looked at him with speechless expression. He told Dia that he needed to talk with his friend first.

Dia didn't mind and would talk with him later.

Brando felt that the connection between the two of them was cut. He felt that her Quirk was similar to a walkie-talkie. He looked at Ojiro and said, "Once Uraraka touches Bakugou then he is finished."

"So do you think that Uraraka can win against Bakugou-chan?" Tsuyu asked.

They were surprised when they heard it.

"Hey, do you think that Bakugo doesn't know that it is dangerous to be touched? He won't let her touch him that easily, also Bakugou uses his sweat to create an explosion, so it is better for her to defeat him as soon as possible or else her chance to beat him will decrease," Brando said. He knew that the longer the battle the stronger explosion that Bakugou could produce but there was still a limit. He wasn't sure whether Uraraka could beat Bakugou though.

---

"START!!!"

Bakugou and Uraraka started the battle. She charged toward him since she needed to beat him as soon as possible.

'I need to touch him!' Uraraka tried to touch him but...

*BOOM!

Bakugou didn't let her and sent out an explosion on her. He saw that she didn't stop and sent out another explosion.

*BOOM!

Only that he was fooled by her. He saw that Uraraka suddenly ran beside him and tried to touch him.

*BOOM!

Uraraka was pushed away by the explosion but she didn't give up. She kept trying to touch him but it wasn't easy.

The hero and the people who watched their match couldn't help but boo toward Bakugou who was torturing Uraraka but Aizawa told them to see clearly and reprimanded the group of the hero who joined the audience.

Uraraka didn't give up since she had planted her trap. She pressed her fingers together and got ready for her trap.

---

"These guys are fools," Brando said.

"Why?" Ojiro asked.

"They don't notice what is at the top of the ring," Brando said.

"Top of the ring?"

They were suddenly stunned when they saw things on the top of the ring.

---

Uraraka used the debris that was caused by his explosion from the ground to become her weapon. She had prepared her weapons and now it was time to beat him.

"I AM GONNA WIN!!!!"

Uraraka dropped the debris from the top toward him.

Bakugou raised his palm and created a big explosion.

*BOOOOOOOM!!!!

The debris that she had collected from her sacrifice was destroyed in an instant by his explosion.

"Must have because you have been hanging with Deku, huh? I know that you have some kind of plan...."

Uraraka was in despair, "In one attack...."

"Close one. Now it is time to get serious!" Bakugou said, but he stopped when he saw her drop to the ground.

Midnight came to check on her to see whether she could continue.

"No... I - I can still continue...."

"..."

Midnight was silent but she had decided her decision, "Uraraka is unable to continue. Bakugou moves to the second round!"

---

Brando thought that Bakugou had a similar tragedy with Kirishima since both of their opponents were girls. He was in luck that his opponent was a guy but it didn't really matter with his power since no matter who was his opponent he would be the winner of this Sports Festival.
