After I opened the envelope, I read the content. My face drew a big, deep frown before I stared at Julia. And here I thought they were the water bills. "And you almost gave me a heart stroke, for this."

"What do you mean?" Julia furrowed her eyebrows. "Your academic evaluation is so important."

She took the paper from my hand and pointed to the long list with teachers' name and their evaluation.

"Not paying attention. Sleeping in the class. Low grades at the pre-exams." She seemed to be on the verge of tearing when she mentioned that. "And even, skipping classes."

You know, living your life twice, while you aren't a very patient person at the same time, can lead to burnouts during school.

"Listen, mom–"

"No, you listen." She cut me and massaged her temple. "For the whole day, you do nothing but texting your girlfriend, spend your time in the shower, raising the water bill over and over.

"I was easy on you since I was working outside." She questioned. "But now this. What are you doing with your free time anyway?"

What I do in my free time. Sure. Here's a list. Hamon training. Time Stop training. Stand training. And of course, alternating between dating two girls. And I just had s.e.x with the other one, just one minute before.

"I train." I didn't look affected by this speech about grades and pointed to All Might's name with N13. "See. Those gave me a positive one. Present Mic said my English was good as well."

"You skip his class." Julia took a deep breath, sighed, and said. "I've talked to Midnight."

'That traitor.' I frowned. "And?"

She continued. "She told me that your final exams are soon. You need not only to pass the heroic test but the written test."

Final exams… right. Because there was a lot in my life, I have forgotten about them.

"The result is what matters, don't worry about that." I patted her shoulder in good intent.

"Well, seeing how you are acting, make me think I was a bad parent." Julia lied down. "I have a high degree, yet you don't even love school. Maybe your grandma is right. I should tell her to come and take–"

"No! You were a good mom." I patted her back. "Just you need to have faith in me."

She alone is enough headache, let alone that old witch of her mom.

"Well, whatever." she covered her face with both hands and didn't talk.

"Stop acting dramatic. Both know that you aren't crying."

She took her hands off her face, stared at me with her green eyes, and rolled her eyes, frowning.

"Well. Whatever. If you fail your exams, I will take the car back." She said.

I opened my eyes widely all of the sudden. "Wait–" I raised my hand. "I just got it."

"It's the parent right to punish their child's when they don't study." She said. Seeing my expression, she smirked.

"You're a horrible parent," I exclaimed. "You think you can do this to me."

How can she do this to me? Although I'm thinking like an edgy teenager, that car means a lot to me.

"I'm not changing my mind." She smirked more. I hope that it's the trolling smile of her and the car thing is a joke.

"Give me a break."

"I will." She smiled as she stood up and walked around the apartment. I only followed her with my eyes, wondering what this woman is thinking of. She then came back with something that made me change my frown and I almost, like Rin, my Chinese classmate says, coughed blood – Although, I wonder why Chinese people cough blood when they are angry or surprised.

Holding a bunch of thick books with her hands, she said. "I'll give you a break after we finish studying math…"

I took a deep breath. In my life, I had thought facing villains was a scary thing. But when I did, I found my first idea wrong. I had thought then that being in double relationship with two girls and confront them required more courage, which appeared to be less scary as well.

But now… Being forced to study for your exams, and with your mom, in your second life, is way worse.

Should I pretend that I'm affected by the attacks of the villains and make drama over it?

I should if it could save me from this.

"Don't bring the villains to the topic." Julia sat next to me and placed the books on a table she brought with her. "I know about your supposed Stamina and life force. You are full of vitality to stay for two or three days awake. I'm aware of it. Now, let's study."

"You're happy doing this."

"Mmmm…" She didn't deny it. She grabbed my cheek. "I was thinking about how to spend time more with my darling. Now, I think I hit the jackpot. Two birds with one rock. Now, let's start studying."

"Do I have to do this?"

"Do you want to keep the car?"

"Good Grief." Only if I had tears I would cry. But I had lost them a long time ago while watching the drama.

I have to do this if I want to keep my car. After all, It's a great place to have Snusnu.

Wait a second. Can't I just, during the test, use the World, and cheat in the exam. But probably UA would isolate the students for any potential cheating.

"Kuro—the second edition?" Tomura was in his hideout while looking at his new servant.

He leaned back, in his bar-like place.

Although the person in front of him looked very similar to Kurogiri, he was not. The first Kurogiri was a Nomu made of a corpse. This one, however, was made of a Nomu's corpse, which happened to belong to the dead Kurogiri.

"You can call me Kurogiri if you feel like to, Young Master Tomura." The new Kurogiri went to grab a dry towel, took a glance from his hand. "I have the same personality. Most of the memories he had before his death. According to the logic, I should be him, just a new version of Nomu."

"I know," Tomura said.

Tomura moved his head to the right, looking at the group of the villains who were singing up to his league. Unlike the weak ones he had in the past, these were stronger, had more experience, and of course, they had a goal, principal, and would be easy to be guided by him, as pawns.

"Does the fact that I am more modified bother you, Young Master?"

"Not at all."

To Tomura, It was better. Not only the new servant can teleport them, but he has one more Quirk. It was really a miracle that they could bring him back from death and modify him to be better.

Tomura continued. "Did you get me the ID?"

"Yes." Kurogiri waved his hand. A portal appeared above them and a card fell.

Tomura held a fake ID, of someone who studied at a heroic class in a random high school.

Tomura turned his head and looked at a near mirror.

Although he was looking at his reflection, he didn't feel the same way he does as always.

"To have someone's power to change my eye's colour and hair…"

Tomura frowned, looking at his now blue reddish eyes and red hair.

He then looked at the fake ID.

His look match it for sure

"We have hacked the system," Kurogiri said. "You are officially a recent gratitude from one of the southern heroic academies."

Tomura lowered his head and thought about his enemy.

Tomura looked at his hands. With his quirk, he surely can kill anyone, just by touching him with his hands. However, his sensei's target was someone who he could barely approach, much less defeat.

"All Might be someone who constantly moves and up guard. So it was hard to track him. Lee is more of a guy who barely moves. Yet, he is very strong when you are near him, touching him is almost impossible."

He wanted to impress his teacher All For One. He wanted to prove that he's the best, and he's reliable. He couldn't just sit here, and let All For One scheme.

For that, he had decided that he would use his league, his resources, to the scheme, to make the perfect scheme.

That's right.

"I always thought about how to approach the unapproachable." He planned to make a perfect plan, to prove to All For One that he's capable now, and he's no longer a mere student who needs teaching. His teacher, of course, should have a hint of this. Yet he had yet to interfere, which made Tomura think that it's a good one.

Tomura continued. "And the answer was. Let them let you."

Kurogiri made eye contact with Tomura. "I understand. Do you want me to push your application now? The license exam is near."

Tomura raised his hand.

"Not yet. Timing is the key." Although his plan included pretending to be a hero, he needed to do a few things. One of them was to manage his new league's members, and ensure that he can manipulate them, like the pawns they are.

"But first, bring me some Medicine." Tomura started scratching his neck. "When I get nervous, I start scratching my neck. I can't help it. If things got more on my nerves, I may kill someone and my cover would blow up."

"Yes, young master." The fog guy said. "Can you manage it, it's too much risk."

"I know. I can manage it." Tomura smiled. "This is a double plan, to get rid of both All Might and dissolve someone in half."
