After Iida was diagnosed, he soon got picked up by his mother and was sent home. As for the other two...It was time for Izuku to keep his word. 'Now the only question is...how?' Izuku thought, trying to think of a way they can leave the hospital without being caught and noticed. "Izuku?" the two heard someone say. Their heads shifted to the wall to face the source of the voice. "M-M-Melascula?!/ Who are you?"  The two said at the same time as they faced each other due to their responses. "You know this woman?" Todoroki said, activating his ice just in case. "Y-yeah," he said with a light blush, he was still not used to the outfit the girl was wearing. 

"Alright then." Todoroki turned to face Melascula once more before bowing. "My name is Todoroki Shoto, nice to meet you," He said. Melascula smiled at the introduction. "Melascula, a pleasure," she said. "Now, back to the matter at hand. Meliodas wants to bring this fellow over. Would you come with me please?" She said as pitch-black matter rose and started spinning rapidly. She stepped aside and waited for the two to walk through. 

Todoroki and Izuku walked through, they were at the springs once more. Todoroki gave off a confused look. Seeing this, Izuku began to explain how to get there. Understanding the instructions, they dove in and began to swim. Melascula, Todoroki, and Izuku reached the surface of the water. 'Ah, nostalgia' Izuku thought. "Now come," Melascula said, opening another portal. 

They emerged from the portal, seeing the blond and the tall man there once more. With one more person included. "Welcome back, Izuku!" Meliodas shouted as Ban came and gave the boy a noogie. "Ow ow ow ow," Izuku said as he rubbed his head. 'huh...curious'  Todoroki thought. 

"Sate sate sate...So I'm guessing you're Todoroki?" Meliodas said as he approached the peppermint boy. "Yes...and you are?" Todoroki said. "The name's Meliodas! Nice to finally meet you Shoto!" Meliodas said. Todoroki was surprised at how they used his first name so easily. He looked around...'English country...got it' Todoroki thought. "The pleasure is mine, Meliodas." He said.

"Hello again, Todoroki" He heard a deep, calm voice say. He turned around to see a person he was familiar with. "Monspeet, nice to see you again." "You too. You didn't tell me Todoroki was your last name?" Monspeet said with curiosity. "Sorry...it's a custom to my homeland." Todoroki approached the tall man with a fabulous mustache. "I asked Midoriya to bring me here as you said." 

"Well now that we're all getting acquainted with each other, how about you come inside for a drink? Hm?" Meliodas suggested. "Sure." The three entered the tavern, leaving Todoroki outside to think to himself. He thought against it for a bit, before realizing that Izuku went inside before him, so it's probably fine.

"A tavern...Am I allowed in here?" Todoroki asked. "Yeah, why not? It's not like you're going to drink alcohol. You can have juice if you want." the blonde said, fetching Monspeet a pint of ale. "So Izuku... how's it going?" Meliodas asked. "I'm fine, though I did get into a battle recently. You're very much aware of that though." Izuku said. "Yep, want me to rough the guy up for you?" he gave the former member of the ten commandments the mug as he said that. "No no no, it's fine. We took care of him already." The boy said, waving his hands around at high speeds. 

As the freckled boy and the demon king had their little chat, Todoroki and Monspeet decided to finally discuss what he wanted to. "What did you want me for anyway?" Todoroki asked. "Well...hear me out... I wanted to transfer my power to you," he answered. "...eh?"

Izuku and Meliodas managed to overhear their conversation, granted that they were the only people in the building anyway. "Did you make me come here for some April fools joke?" Todoroki said, visibly frustrated. "It's not a joke, nor a lie either. I'm serious." Monspeet said with a stern voice. Seeing that the demon was not one to lie or make a joke, he decided to trust him. He hasn't failed him yet, has he?
