"People live their lives bound by what they accept as correct and true... that is how they define reality. But what does it mean to be correct and true? Merely vague concepts... their reality may all be an illusion."

- Uchiha Itachi

...

Lying on a reclined beach chair, I watch the kids play through my sunglasses.

Eri and the Shimano siblings, Katsuma and Mahoro befriended quickly after I saved their family from the villain Nine.

Yes. I already take care of the plot of this movie too. Nine's quirks are very good, there's even a [Weather Manipulation]. Much weaker than the Storm power from the X-men, but it's something already.

I also copied the quirks of the two brothers. A healing quirk and an illusion quirk, very nice too.

*snaps*

Using a quirk I copied from a reporter, [Whole body lens] I take pictures of children playing. I'll give their father a copy later.

I'm much more relaxed in this world now. Just doing a victory lap at the moment.

Now I'll start discreetly copying quirks I've seen in the manga, I'll try to catch them all.

After my fight with Nine, if you even can call that a fight... I just dodges everything he and his goons threw at me and defeat them with one move each. But I finally complete 100% with Miles Morales Card. Yaay.

After some thought I decided to assimilate Yagami Light. In theory, assimilating him will increase my intelligence and deductive ability, in addition to the process being faster... Freeing the Assimilation spot faster.

I thought in summon him, after all there's nothing he can do that I can't already. Batman after all... But I remembered that he is a narcissist, sociopath with god-complex. We're not going to get along. I thought about making another summon assimilate him... But on the final I decided to test how much my intelligence will increase with a similar card.

There diverses types of intelligence after all.

First, my theory proved to be true. With one night's sleep, his card percentage went up to 67%. Today I will finish assimilating him and will be able to use another card. And I feel like there's been an improvement in certain aspects of my mental attributes. Concentration, thinking faster, deducing better... So it's a win.

I think the next will be Loki or Jayce. Hum.. Jayce should assimilate faster than Loki, hopefully before the Travel Ticket runs out. But I really want magic ASAP... Decision, decisions...

Feeling something cold being pressed into my arm I turn to look at Lady Nagant, who has brought me something to drink.

She is wearing a two-tone full body swimsuit, dark blue and pink. Matching her hair. I'm the one that made it. She refused the sling one I made previously... I don't know why.

I want to believe or relationship have improved in the last days.

*snap**snap**snap**snap**snap**snap**snap**snap**snap**snap**snap*

I take some pictures of her too. She glares at me. Sorry, but not sorry.

"Thank you, darling." I say smirking to Kaina-san

She only continues to glare and after a moments she sighs, and then sits by my side.

It came as a surprise to me when the Shimano family confused me and Lady Nagant as Eri's parents haha. But I thought it was really funny at the time and I didn't correct it, in fact I even started acting like it was true.

They think I'm Eri's father because I still keep my hair white, and Eri's horn when she's around. Initially, I wanted to pass as an older brother. But since I got the muscle quirk of Muscular and others. I make myself look older in my secret form. Increasing muscle mass and a few inchs of height. Getting more adult.

I'll use it in the world of Marvel to throw people off me even more, in my secret identity.

"Why are you doing all this?"

"Excuse me? IF you want I can erase the photos."

"Not that Your plan, your acting, your research.. everything." Kaina-san says, "You could have just taken what you want and need and that's it. Is not your problem"

I talked to her about a lot. Honestly, the closer it gets to the time I leave, the less I care who knows my true origins.

"Um" Putting my chin between my fingers I think a little about how to respond, "My grandparents are farmers." I say.

"..." she just watches me and waits for me to continue.

"They live off the land, they taught me that whenever you take something away, you better give something back. Seed good karma or something. For everyone to win... The cycle of life or something like that..."

She just looks at me with her impassive face.

"I could have not cared, you're right But, I just feel like I'd regret it for the rest of my life if I didn't do what I'm doing, you know? Heroes... Don't Always have the luxury of choosing the easy way. Huhu" I say as I look at the horizon. "And even though I'm not a natural hero like All Might, I want to try to be a good person at least... Tell me what's better... To be born good, or to overcome your evil nature through great effort?" I ask quoting a game from before I'm transmigrated.

After that we fell into silence. Words no longer need to be said. A few minutes later Eri shouts calling me to play in the sea.

I stand up and extend my hand to Kaina-san

"Come, wifey" I say cheekily "There's a lot to live for yet Kaina-san, don't give up so early."

After a few seconds she grabs my hand.

I want to believe that I will be able to revive the optimism she had in her youth.

...

07 days until the Travel Ticket expires

"... the situation in japan is chaotic. More and more heroes abandon their posts. Even with the efforts of Star and Stripe and Endeavor, support for the heroes from the population has plummeted."

*bzzt*

"We are here in a movement on the streets in which the population asks the Villain Dis to take over Japan and establish a new order."

*bzzt*

"Strange thing happening with students of heroic courses and heroes overall, they appear to be attacked in their residences. But no harm was done to them. Victims allege they are knocked unconscious and wake up in their beds hours later."

*bzzt*

"The Prime Minister talks about the measures taken to increase security.."

*click*

Turning off the TV I refocus on what I'm doing. I'm watching a criminal that had been injected with something I've created.

Immoral? Maybe, but the guy is a rapist pedophile, so...

Watching the lights turn green I clench my fist in a small victory celebration.

Success!

It's not perfect, but this work can be continued after I'm gone.

"Congratulations, Hector. You did something amazing." Yoichi-san is the first to congratulate me.

Focusing in my mind the other holders of [One For All] nod and congratulate me too. Even the second and third, who don't like me very much.

"This is really amazing, Hector-kun. You are decades ahead of Dr. Garaki." All For One says.

Looking at the man still chained to his throne, I think the time has finally come.

"I think it's time, sensei." I say and everyone tense.

"Oh... It's finally my time? Too bad. I really want to see the height that your one day will reach, Hector-kun." He says, not at all bothered by his own impending death.

"Any last words, sensei?" I ask.

He smiles and starts talking. "I want to give you one last piece of advice, Hector-kun. The only limits you have are the ones you put on yourself. If there comes a day when you become discredited with the world and the people in it, it's okay to let go of those inhibitions and act as you see fit. And bring forth your true potential. You owe nothing to the world and the people in it."

"So you're basically saying to go ape shit in the future if thing don't go my way. Sorry but no. Don't act like you can predict my future jut because we have similar powers" I say but he never stops smiling.

"Time for disappear, sensei."

After that I make my mental world reject All For One. It starts to slowly disappear. Too peaceful an ending for a guy like him. But I don't personally hate the bastard...

But I don't intend to become a second All For One, I learned from him. And that's it. It would be stupid not to use it. He was very helpful after all. Probably wants me to carry his legacy or something.. Sorry, but like you said, I owe nothing to you All For One.

"Your guys will stick around for nowenjoy" I say before turning my attention back to the real world. Holders of [One For All] seem relieved that All For One is finally dead. Must be a great victory to them... A century old grudge finally solved, I can't even imagine.

.....

I decided to assimilate Jayce first, and as I predicted. It's been fast. I believe that in the day of my return, I must complete it.

But that leaves me with a problem. A weakness.

And weaknesses disgusts me.

Magic. Although I'm not completely ignorant about magic, thanks for the Chakra Books...

But these books teach more about basics, mind strengthening, chi. It's the kind of magic that Iron Fist and The Hand use. There are no spells, like Dr. Strange...

So I have a huge blindspot in magic knowledge. And magic is bullshit. Serious, Magic is the most bullshit power of all...

And I don't think Loki's card will solve it. After all, the MCU's Loki is very weak... Nothing like his comic counterpart. He uses illusion and daggers. pfft... The only daggers users that I respect is Thorfinn and Sung Jin-woo.

So I decided to use my three Power Boost Cards in the Sword of Actuation. The sword that can harm astral and magical beings.

I could save the Power Boost Cards... Use it on [One For All], but I'd rather train theses powers for now, and use the cards later. Power Boost cards apparently come easy on the Gacha. My instincts are telling me I'm going to need to get into magic early on. Like the Murphy's Law... I have powers, technology, physical power, but I don't have magic... And usually you always lack what you will need most.

I remember clueless playing Pokemon Platinum, and dueling with Cynthia with a comp of Pokemons very bad against her... I have PTSD till this day.

Removing the Sword of Actuation from my inventory. I start using the Power Boost cards, and after I use the second one... changes start happening.

The blade that is previously a light-blue hue become blood-red. I remember that red beheliths are from the Godhand, so now my sword is made from the strongest types of behelits. Nice.

Starting to make tests with the sword, I notice that it is stronger. The dimensional rift is open easily, and I can make some sort of dimensional slash that can cut very, very far. Much stronger than preciously...

Maybe I should talk right now. Rip this band-aid already...

"Eri...can we talk a little?" I say approaching the duo. Kaina-san sees my serious expression and no doubt guesses the matter.

Looking into their big, curious eyes of Eri I can hardly speak... They're so shiny now. She overcome so much since I saved her from Overhaul.

"Eri..." I start again, mostly for my benefit. "I won't be able to stay by your side forever... I'll have to leave. In a few days actually..." And I wince seeing her eyes growing large and the pained expression that appear in her face.

"W-wha-why... You're going away too? Like mommy?" I feel like I was physically hit. "D-did I-I do something bad? I'm sorry... please don't abandon me. I will be a good girl I promis-" I can't take anymore. I hurry to hug her.

"NO. STOP ERI! It's not your fault. It's just that... It's just that... I don't know how to explain it to you right now. But my time in this world is limited from the start. And... and I can't take you with me..."

And it's true. I can barely protect myself in the world of Marvel. And using the Background Customization card would make Eri loyal to me. I can't do that. I can't alter her mind like that. She can't make that decision either... She is just a child.

She is better here...

"*sob sob* I don wanna. I want to stay with uuu... Please. Please. I will obey you. I will not cause trouble." Eri continues to cry, her head on my shoulder and squeezing my clothes tightly.

"Eri... It's not you. You're already a good girl. A nice girl. You're strong, Eri... Stronger than me. I know you can get over this." I say and pull her face away from my shoulder so I can look her straight in the eye. "I love you, Eri. I loved the time I spent with you. You will forever be my little sister. But your place is here. Can I ask you to be strong here? For me..." I say and she nods trying to hold back. the tears and failed miserably.

I don't think I'm much better than her...

I don't need to say any more for now. I just hold her until she falls asleep.

I never expected to get so attached to her. But if there is something I do not regret doing after I came into this world. Is to have saved her...

....

Eve of Hector Returns to Marvel World.

"Fuuu" exhaling I finish my daily workout routine.

Everything is ready. Tomorrow is the big day.

I've already put everything I want to take back in my inventory. High amounts of gold. Machineries and eletronics... A CPU with Terabytes of infomation. Even the corpses of theHigh-end nomus.

So far I don't know if all my choices were correct, but looking at the current situation and how it will turn out. And compared to the situation in the manga... I would say it was and will be an improvement.

"You're doing your best, Hector." I hear Shimura-san talking next to me.

I imitated that manga/anime "Tsuki ga michibiku isekai", in which the protagosnista allows that dragon Woman to watch drama in his mind, through memories. And I made the history I know of this world available to them. I only read till the U.A. traitor reveal, so I don't know what is the ending would be like without my interference.

But the holders believe that things will be better.

"Like, you caused a lot of pain-"

"Banjo-san!" Shimura-san yells outraged.

"But, it avoided much more. For example, the heroes who would die in that war." He continues.

And it's true, it's a good comfort to my soul.

"Don't worry, tomorrow everything will be fine." Yoichi-san tells me.

*knock knock*

Hmm? Kaina-san? "Come in" I say and Lady Nagant enters my room in her nightgown.

"How is Eri?" I ask, the last few days she has been sad. But I believe she will get over it.

"Asleep. She's getting better. I think tomorrow she's going to cry again... So be prepared." she says.

"Ugh... Impossible to be prepared for this." I say.

"True... So... tomorrow is the big day. You're really going forever?" she asks

"Well... I don't know. Maybe there's a way I can come back. I don't know if I use my opportunity to come here again. I'll come back exactly to this world ... Or go to another version from this world." I say and to relieve the mood I continue. "Why? Will you miss me? I thought I left enough pictures of me. You can frame them all."

"Yes. I'll miss you, Hector." she says seriously.

"Eh..." she is being awfully honest right now.

"..."

"..." What is happening right now? can't be... or it can be?

"...You know, Hector." She begins.

"Yes, I'm Hector (Hector desu)" I say mimicking Kazuma.

"In hindsight I feel like I got carried away by the decision of others all my life. And I regretted it a lot. I don't want to have any more regrets. This will be my last opportunity..." she says approaching. Her cheeks getting darker.

"Wait... wait." Damn. I want to hit myself now. But I need to be certain." Are you sure?" I ask in a calmer tone. "I don't want you to feel like you need to repay me for anything or something"

"I'm not doing this to repay you. I'm doing this because I want."she says keeping eye contact.

"I'm minor."

"And I'm a villain. Why should I care?"

"It's my first time..."

"...Will be mine too." she says surprising me. Japanese culture, huh... Not so weird. A workaholic heroine that has been arrested. I can see the reasons.

*sigh* "If you're okay with me.. You know that after today we may never see each other again. It can create a feeling that will never bear fruit, Kaina-san..."

"I know. I don't need this to blossom into a relationship. While in prison I thought about all the things that were denied me... My youth is one of them. I never had the opportunity to go out or date people because I trained from an early age with the Commission to become a hero. So I want to do it now. With a person I respect, admire, like and trust..." she says seriously. The blush in her cheeks still present, but her eyes determined.

"I like you too, kaina" I say moving closer. seeing her cheeks redden even more. "Let's make a good memory then... for the rest of our lives." I keep bringing my face close enough to feel her breath.

"yes..." she says closing her eyes before we give ourselves to each other.

....

"Wow. he is going for it" En say in Hector inner world.

"THAT IS MY BOY!! I'M GONNA GIVE YOU SOME TIPS" Banjo exclaims.

"Shameless..." Shimura Nana says, bright red while covering her eyes with her hands. But peeking between her fingers...

"Didn't you have a child?" The second holder asks her.

"THiS AND THAT ARE DIFFERENT" She exclaims embarassed.

"Oh No. Our view of the outside world has been cut off!!!" Banjo screams.

"That's expected.

"Yes. obviously..."

"Thanks kami."

"*Sniff*They grow so fast." Banjo says emotionally as he wipes a tear from the corner of his eye.

....

Hector Last day in BNHA world

Taking a deep breath I prepare myself for my next step.

Machia, Stain, Kaina and Eri are with me. We are in the middle of an open part of the lab with room to house many people.

After last night, I thought things will get awkward with Kaina. But we managed to act normal. We are mature people after all.

"Machia, are you ready?" I ask while materializing a Background Customization Card, wanting to use it I see Machia as an option. After selecting it I see a prompt appearing in front of Machia asking if he accepts being turned into a card.

Listing the advantages and disadvantages. Machia doesn't think much and accepts. Machia glows and becomes particles of light that condense into a new card in my hand.

- Summon-only Card: Gigantomachia (Boku no Hero Academia).

Neat.

Storing Machia in the unused cards tab I turn to the others.

"It's time. I'll do it..." I say.

"Stain will hide in the shadows above. And Kaina take Eri's hand and move behind me." I continue giving the orders

She nods at me and I nod back.

Closing my eyes I focus on the quirk [Warping], this Quirk allows the user to produce a black ooze-like liquid from other people's mouths. The black liquid then envelops the person's entire body and acts as a warping portal, vanishing along with the target before reappearing at a different location.

With my changes the liquid won't taste so horrible, the Custom Visual Perk helps not only with the visual appearance.

Boosting this quirk with [One For All] I reach the people I want to bring here. The people I stole the quirks from. People I have been fighting.

And the people to whom I will entrust the future of this world.

...

A.N.:

Part of a journey is the goodbyes.

Believe me, I wish I had taken Eri and Lady Nagant to the world of Marvel. But it doesn't feel right. This journey from Hector to the world of Bnha was a journey of growth. And growth sometimes means saying goodbye to certain people. It's part of life. I like my story more realistic. With my author powers, I could find a convenient way in which things would work out for Hector and everyone. And everyone would leave happilly after. But in the real world that's not how it works. Things are more complex. More difficult.

Next chapter is still today and is the last of Bnha Arc.

The last chapter ended up very big.
