Chapter 108 - Award Ceremony

"Hmm, your recovery ability is just making anyone envious," Recovery Girl said after kissing him.

"Thank you," Brando said. He was slightly burnt by Bakugou's last attack. Even though the heat wasn't that much power, the impact of the explosion couldn't be taken lightly.

"Go, you're the winner, right? Everyone is waiting," Recovery Girl said.

Brando nodded and went out of the infirmary.

Recovery Girl looked at the person who was hiding in another bed that was covered in a curtain.

"DAMMIT!!!!" Bakugou shouted in frustration.

Recovery Girl shook her head, "Oh, youth."

Brando went to the location where he was told earlier. He wasn't sure but he remembered that he would come out from the podium directly. He thought that it was similar to an idol or singer that sang in their concert, "Tokoyami."

Tokoyami nodded, "Brando, that war has been recorded inside my head." He was moved by the intensity of that battle.

"...." Brando thought that this guy was similar to Yoshiko, "How is your fight with Todoroki?"

Tokoyami shook his head, "It is a shame but I don't have a chance to face him head-on in the ring."

Brando nodded, "You might win against him since he won't use his fire Quirk." He was still annoyed with his fight with him earlier.

"Sorry."

Suddenly both of them heard a voice and they saw Todoroki.

"You don't need to say that since it is over already," Brando couldn't bother too much against him and continued to talk with Tokoyami about his Quirk since this guy had beaten Momo earlier. He might as well ask him about the power of his Quirk.

Todoroki looked at him for a while but didn't say anything. He sat down waiting for the teacher to be ready to stand on the stage.

Bakugou kicked the door and entered the room. He looked at him and snorted, "I won't lose next time!" His body felt better after he was healed by Recovery Girl.

Brando grinned, "Then you need to polish your move more but that last attack was very powerful. You might kill someone with that attack."

"Damn! Are you mocking me? Your body is all healthy and you can even flirt with a girl!" Bakugou thought that he was giving him sarcasm.

"Bastard!" Brando didn't expect this guy to blabber his mouth.

"Fight? Let's do it now!" Bakugou let out an explosion from both of his palms

BOOM! BOOM!

Both of them were ready to fight only suddenly they couldn't use their Quirk and they were wrapped in cloth. They turned and saw their teacher there.

"Can you not make any trouble for me?" Aizawa was very annoyed by two of his students. He was wondering why both of them had become the 1st and 2nd at the Sports Festival.

"I know, Sensei," Brando nodded and sat down calmly.

Bakugou snorted and sat down while looking away.

"...."

"You guys need to go into the podium and just stand in that place," Aizawa said.

They nodded and stood in the place that was pointed by him.

"Brando, let's talk about your matter later," Aizawa said.

"....."

Brando was speechless and looked at Bakugou.

Bakugou was silent and knew that he was wrong.

"Now, let's move on to the awards ceremony!" Midnight announced and showed the winner of this Sports Festival.

Brando, Bakugou, Todoroki, and Tokoyami stood up in their place ready for the award ceremony.

"Now for the medals! Presenting them this year is... You know who!"

All Might who was standing on the top of the stadium shouted, "I AM..."

".....HERE WITH THE MEDALS."

"He's everyone's hero...."

"ALL MIGHT!!!!"

Both of All Might and Midnight were quite awkward to each other since they were talking at the same time.

All Might shook his head and gave the medals to both Todoroki and Tokoyami who were in the 3rd place, "Congratulations! Tokoyami! Todoroki! Both of you are very strong!" He hugged Tokoyami and said, "But relying on your Quirk alone won't be enough to overcome a bad matchup. Hone your innate strength top open the world of opportunity!"

"Understood...."

All Might looked at Todoroki and hugged him too, "You held back and didn't use your left side earlier, was there a reason for that?"

"It was my match against Midoriya. I think I've lost my way......"

Brando heard him talk and shook his head. He knew this guy might have a complicated family but he never cared much.

"I might have to make a dissipating fight for you Brando," Todoroki said and added, "But I need to settle something first."

"Then do it quickly," Brando commented.

"I know," Todoroki nodded.

All Might looked at both of them and gave them a thumbs up. He continued to walk to Bakugou and he could see that he wasn't happy, "You're in the 2nd place, you should be more happy."

"I need to become number 1!" Bakugou snorted.

"Then you need to work hard to beat him," All Might said and gave him a medal.

Bakugou looked at the medal on his neck with a complicated expression.

All Might looked at Brando with his trademark smile, "Congratulation for winning the Sports Festival! You've grown so much!"

"Thank you, All Might," Brando smiled. He was wondering whether he could have another match with him.

"Hahaha, I can tell that you want another match with me," All Might smiled.

"Is that possible?" Brando asked.

All Might nodded, "You've won at least, I will give you a prize."

"Thank you," Brando nodded.

All Might gave him his medal and hugged him too.

Brando didn't really mind bro hug but he was more interested in being hugged by girls.

Both of them hugged each other and All Might started his speech.

"Well!! These are your winners!! But hold on, everyone! Everyone here today has the potential to stand up here!! As you all witnessed!" Competition! Encouragement! Pushing each other to climb higher and higher!! The sprouts of today will grow into the heroes of tomorrow!! In that spirit, let's have one final cheer!"

"Everyone say it with me!! One, two, and..."

"PL---"

"PLUS UL---"

"THANKS FOR THE HARD WORK!!!!"

"We're supposed to say 'Plus Ultra' All Might!"

"Oh, right... it's just that they really did work so hard and...."

Brando chuckled and looked in one direction. His tail moved around excitedly since he wanted to continue the thing that he had done earlier.
