The rest of the day was pure bliss for Momo. To tell the truth, she gambled big this time. If Kuroha had avoided her bow, then the relationship between them would have become extremely awkward. But, she still gambled with some hope and won.

Momo, who was in the back of her limousine while on the way to school couldn't help but gloat a little.

(Ahaha sucks it, bitch.)

Momo immediately blushed a little at those uncouth thoughts. As the heir of a noble family, profanities were a big no-no. Still, she couldn't help but feel smug. All those years, she was always one step behind Himiko. No, one step was too little, she couldn't even see her back. But now? They were at the same level. Still, this wasn't enough,

(I don't know what she is doing, but it seems like she is too busy to meet Kuroha right now.)

It was her chance, the like that would never happen with a series of coincidences. She couldn't help but be happy about the current result. She knew how much Kuroha relied on Himiko. If she missed this chance, then, she would once again fall behind. Still, she had one hesitation.

She turned to face the one seated next to her, her friend, maid, and bodyguard, Hiragi Suzuka. Despite the age gap of five years, the two of them had been together since she awakened her quirk and was confirmed as the next heiress.

After all, her family was huge, basically a conglomerate. She was the sole descendant of the current leader, but the main family wasn't just her and her father and mothers. It was only after she awakened her quirk that she was confirmed as the next heir.

Suzuka was a young woman close to her twenty. She had all the characteristics of a beautiful Japanese woman. Suzuka was a little shorter than her, but not by much. She had a slim athletic build, as well as short black hair, giving her a little tomboyish look. Her most striking trait was her ever calm face and her heterochromatic eyes. Purple for the left and light pink for the right.

To tell the truth, if Suzuka wished, she could easily become a top model with how beautiful she was and how well proportioned her body was. She had very beautiful, delicate facial features, white skin that faintly reflected the light. Although those features made her look far younger than she was, anyone who underestimated her because of her look was in for a world of pain. After all, In terms of pure power, Suzuka could be compared to an A rank criminal. If you added all her skills and the versatility of her quirk?

(AN: I compared her to a criminal because a criminal rank is determined by his power and the effect they had on society while hero rank has too many factors aside from power. Just for a reminder, Muscular, the villain Madness killed back then was an A rank villain, this should make you understand how badass she is.)

"Suzuka, you have been with me from as far I could remember isn't it?"

Suzuka was a little surprised at this question, but answered, "Yes, milady. I became your bodyguard and personal maid after you reached five. It has been 10 years since then."

Momo nodded before taking a deep breath, "What do you think of Kuroha?", as she said this, she stared fixedly at her.

Suzuka's usually stoic face crumbled a little. She didn't know why, but she could feel that this discussion wasn't going to end well for her. Still, she had to answer with honesty,

"To tell the truth, I didn't like him all that much. But, I still respect him as a warrior."

Momo nodded, she couldn't ask for more. Finally, after a little pause, she said, "I know the rules of the Hiragi family. Right now, I am giving you a chance to retire as my personal maid. Afterward, any form of refusal would be seen as a form of betrayal. As such, think well before giving me your answer. You have until tomorrow night."

Momo wasn't joking. The Hiragi family was an old family. They didn't play around with tradition. Still, they weren't demons either. Right now, Momo was acting following the tradition. The choice. It was the only moment where Hiragi Suzuka could make her own decision, without fear of repercussions.

The interior of the car fell, into silence, each of the two girls, deep in their thoughts.

"Sooo... You say you want advice?"

Kuroha was laying down on the bed of Minegata's bedroom. The room was basically a typical schoolboy Japanese room. The only difference, where the different sketches stuck on the wall, depicting different kinds of Hero costumes. More precisely, female hero costumes. Each more erotic than the other.

Minegata, on the other hand, was seated on the chair of his desk as he looked at his brother with a hurt expression. Tears could be seen running on his cheek.

Kuroha rose himself from the bed as he looks at this scene with astonishment,

"Why are you crying? Are you that happy?"

"Happy? Do you think I am happy?"

Minegata left his chair as he kneeled on the ground in defeat, finally, he sighed before coming close to Kuroha,

"Promise me you won't be angry."

Kuroha was dubious but still agreed. Once he agreed, Minegata began to act a little bashful as he twirled his fingers,

"You see. I made a bet with my mother. The loser has to pay 15000 yen and do all the chores for two weeks."

(AN: 15000 yen= 135,01 USD)

Kuroha tilted his head. It was a rather interesting bet. But what did it have to do with him?

"Interesting. And?"

"Well...You see…*Cough* I bet that you're gay, while mother bet that you're only a late bloomer.*Cough*"

Kuroha stopped moving and looked at Minegata with a deep glance.

"*Whistle*, Today is a beautiful day isn't it." Minegata on the other hand simply whistled while looking around.

Kuroha sighed a little, before *Bang* punching Minegata in the stomach.

Minegata immediately crouched down, while trembling, then he screamed

"MOTHER!!! KUROHA IS BULLYING ME!!! AGAIN!!"

A loud voice answered him,

"WHAT DID YOU DO AGAIN? I AM SURE IT'S YOUR FAULT. KUROHA DON'T HOLD BACK!"

Minegata was crestfallen,

"Even my mother is against me.*Sigh* what a world full of betrayal."

Kuroha smiled a little. He was a little worried that him being kicked out of Nighteye house would sour the relationship between him and the Minetas but, it seemed like his worry was all for naught. He sat back on the bed and said,

"Ok, stop playing around. I didn't hit you that hard. Since I need your help I will forget this bet."

Minegata stopped squirming before he rose back and stuck his tongue. After that, he went toward his desk and began to rummage in his drawer, finally, he stopped and faced Kuroha,

"Firstly, you see this?"

Kuroha tilted his head as he saw what looked like a rectangular object. A name immediately appeared in his mind.

"A condom?"

"Yep. A condom. I will give you a box later."

"Why do you have a box of condoms ready to be given as a gift?"

Minegata smiled as he said, "I bought it yesterday night directly after receiving your call. I mean, I was never able to act as a big brother. So even though it's a little embarrassing, paying for your first box of condoms is still a way to do so."

Kuroha was stunned. Minegata didn't care and continued,

"Nowadays, with so many quirk protections such as pills are obsolete. There are so many different constitutions that one would need a dedicated doctor who would create a pill specially tailored for one's own constitution."

Kuroha nodded, quirks were really useful, but since each person was basically unique even with the same kind of quirk, some disease and little things that could be easily treated in the past become a headache for the scientist of nowaday.

"*Cough* Kuroha you see, life isn't a hentai where no matter how much you cum in a girl she will never get pregnant. Sometimes, only once is enough to hit the jackpot. As such, you should always be ready."

Kuroha nodded and took the box.

"Thanks."

It was a weird present, but it was one that came from the heart. After he did so, Minegata coughed again before straightening his back and began talking with a solemn tone

"Now, Kuroha, it's time for me to teach you how to make a girl happy, listen well, I won't repeat myself. How much you learn will depend on your talent."

Only one thought went through Kuroha head,

(You think this is xianxia?)

---

That night, after Kuroha came back from a w session with Minagata, he received a message from Momo.

"Please, could you come to see me right now?"

Kuroha tilted his head in wonder,

(Hum...Why the rush?)

Still, he immediately teleported, hoping that it was nothing too important.
