CH 73: AWAKENING?
Momo was bewildered for a while before a deep blush covered her face. Thanks to her training, she wasn’t particularly mindful of nudity. But there was a difference between showing too much cleavage and being stark naked. She crouched down awkwardly as she asked,
“Please, could you give me something to cover myself.”
Kuroha, on the other hand, was entranced by what he was seeing. He had seen Himiko many times half-naked, but this was the first time he saw a girl completely naked. Once again he couldn’t help but marvel at Momo un-Japanese like curves. Her white skin seemed to shine under the light of the room.
Her breasts, which were far larger than normal stood proud and straight as if to tell gravity to go fuck itself. The little cherries at the top were of a beautiful and deep pink that gave one the feeling of wanting to suck on it. Her full perk butt was perfectly toned despite being bountiful. As his gaze slowly trailed down her body he was a little surprised by what he found further down south. He couldn’t help but murmur,
“So there’s no hair down here.”
His voice might have been low, but with the proximity, Momo perfectly heard everything. If before she was red, now she legitimately crimson. She was happy to see him lost while admiring her, but she would have rather that it happened somewhere else.
“Kuroha please.”
This made Kuroha snap out of it. “Sorry, You are simply too beautiful”. He didn’t think that there was any need to act like a teenager in heat and blush and stammer because of an accident. A lucky accident. He went toward his bag as he wanted to find a shirt for her to wear. After a while, he finally found one.
“Take it.”
Momo nodded and took the shirt. It was a black and red shirt with long sleeves. She carefully wore it and tried to button it, but once it reached her chest it became a little harder so decided to top as she didn’t want to make the buttons snap.
Looking at the current Momo, Kuroha took another critical hit. One might think that the shirt would make her less alluring. But, true gentlemen know that there are few things sexier than a beautiful girl wearing a man shirt. The shirt was so long that it reached her thighs and slightly blocked the view toward her garden while still giving an illusion of being able to see. The lack of buttons emphasized her bulging chest by creating a deep cleavage. The sleeves being too long gave her a very cute and young look. All in all, this was a fatal combo for any straight man, and even someone like Kuroha couldn’t help but feel a stirring deep inside his heart.
The same went for Momo. She still didn’t understand why she appeared there with Kuroha without her clothes on, but this could be her chance. As her mother once said, cooked rice cannot be taken back. If she used this chance to go all the way, she knew that no matter what happened she would always have a place in his heart.
*Step* *Step*
Her soft step echoed in the apartment as she walked with her dainty little feet toward him. Once she reached him, she slowly looked up with upturned and moist eyes as she murmured, “Kuroha…”, before tiptoeing and slowly bringing her lips toward him. Sadly, just as their lips were about to connect,
*Click*
The sound of the door being unlocked sounded in their ear. Then, *Bang!!* a young blond girl entered the room.
“YAHOO!!! Kuroha-Kun, how are my cute students doing?....Oh...Ohhhh!!! Fufufu I see!!! Bye-bye, act as if I wasn’t here.”
For the first time in her life, Momo wished to kill someone from the bottom of her heart.
----
Momo was now seated awkwardly next to Kuroha as Milienia sat face to face and looked at them with a knowing grin. She was still wearing Kuroha's shirt, as she actually quite liked it, and she didn’t feel shy in front of Milienia, even though her relationship with her wasn’t as deep as the one she had with Malicia.
After being brought back from the haze of lust, she couldn’t help but berate herself at what she nearly did. Once she calmed herself she used Kuroha phone to call her personal maid, who also played the role of bodyguard, Hiragi Suzuka, in order to not let them worry too much.
She had been assigned bodyguards since the day Kuroha saved her from being abducted. Most of them hide in the background when she went out, with only Suzuka being at her side during official events.
Finally, Milienia put aside her teasing expression and became a little more serious before looking at Momo before slightly dipping her head down,
“Firstly, I am happy that Kuroha was able to find someone else to share his past. I like Himiko-chan very much, but she alone isn’t enough to close the hole in his heart. I also understand how deep your feeling must be for you to have such a revolve. For that, you have all my respect.”
Kuroha felt a little weird. He always knew that Milienia favored him. This action of hers made this even cleared. But, he didn’t understand why. Meanwhile, Milienia raised her head before continuing,
“If I understand well, you say that when you touched him, you were brought back with him, while, from the information your servant gave, your clothes stayed where you two were previously.”
Momo nodded.
“Anything else?”
She tilted her head and thought carefully, “No, not really. It was basically instantaneous. I feel nothing apart from a very short feeling of dizziness.”
“Hum…”, Milienia crossed her leg as she began to analyze the situation,
“Kuroha you said that recently, your [BLINK] seemed to have gone through a change since that day right?”
“Exactly...”
“I see... Then, Congratulations, your quirk went through an awakening.”
Kuroha and Momo were a little stumped. Momo hesitatingly asked,
“What do you mean by awakened?”
“Hum…” Milienia put a finger under her chin as she closed her eyes and seemingly went deep in thought. Finally, she opened her eyes and said, “See, Quirk generally doesn’t appear directly at birth. It needs a latent time that can vary from a few seconds since birth to about four years since birth. This is called quirk awakening. But, what some people don’t know is that quirk can go through a second or even a third awakening. Each awakening considerably boosts the power of the quirk.”
“I see.” Kuroha and Momo nodded. Then, Kuroha asked, “What’s the trigger for this awakening?”
Milienia let out a bitter smile,
“...Emotional stress.”
“Oh…”
As if to reminisce about something, Milienia looked toward the window with a blank look,
“Quirk can awaken when the user is under high mental duress. It can be anything really, from sadness over the losing money, to a life and death situation. Of course, the higher the stress, the higher the chances of awakening. Hehe, during that time the number of experiments over this phenomena was pretty high.”
She let out a sneer of hatred as she said those words, the temperature around her visibly cooling, and Kuroha even had the impression for a short time that light itself bent around her.
“Master…”
This seemed to bring her back from musing as she faced Kuroha and Momo with her usual cheeky smile,
“Anyways, space quirk types are really quirky...If you caught my drift.”
One could feel a cold air go throughout the room. After a while, even Milienia couldn’t help but blush slightly, and she puffed her cheek while moving her head to the side,
“*Humph!!!*Youngsters nowadays don’t understand a good joke.” After that, she let out a sigh before regaining a more serious expression.
“Awakened quirk can be really dangerous both for the user and those around him. I suggest that you avoid experimenting with it for the time being. Simply use it as you always did.”
“...You say for the time being. But for how long?”
At those words, Milienia let out a mysterious chuckle.
“From what I heard, because of the incident that happened a few days ago, UA decided to change the date of their sports festival. It will happen in about two weeks or so. After this festival, you guys will have to go to different agencies for internships in order to better understand how heroes work. I plan to go see a brat and his sister and call an old debt. They will train you…”
Kuroha was a little stunned. Since she was so sure they could train him, this meant that they should have a space-related quirk. To tell the truth. Space and time quirks were extremely rare. This showed again how large the connection of his master was.
Momo raised her hand in doubt,
“Milienia-san. Even though I’m not a heroes fan like Midoriya, I have never heard of Heroes being able to manipulate space.”
“Fufufu, those two aren’t really heroes. You could call them the dark side of the heroes. Those who do the truly dirty jobs. Anyways, this is as much as I will tell. A girl gotta keep an air of mysteriousness. Hum...As a freebie, I can only leave a hint... This guy is a true bastard.”
