Apotheosis

CHAPTER 34: MERCY

Three weeks had passed since Allmight was forced to flee the country with Torino and Bakugou in company. The Prime Minister had to call off the search when Midoriya and his organization failed to find him. That didn't worry Izuku much, who knew that the former hero wasn't a threat anymore and was sure that wherever he was he would stay hidden for the rest of his days. He would still keep his eyes and ears open though. The only one of those three that would make any noise was Katsuki Bakugou and he'd deal with him when he inevitably did.

Society resumed, without the hero Allmight. A few people were broken up about it, but mostly people were grateful that someone like Izuku Midoriya was taking charge of the heroes and holding them accountable for their actions and behavior. In a strange way he had become a new symbol. A symbol of fairness and balance.

Izuku had also started talks about a potential new hero program that he wished to eventually implement. The program involved giving quirkless kids who truly wished to be heroes a chance to try. The program would teach them hand to hand combat, strategy, investigative science, digital science and various other hero related skills. The program would also implement new technology that would help the quirkless operate on the same level as those with quirks. For those that lacked talent in these areas but still had the passion and drive to be a true hero Izuku himself would grant them a compatible quirk using the power of the soul stone.

This would all take quite some time to go into effect. Probably a year at most. The program could only start if all the hero schools were on board and more than half the senate were on the same page. Sadly most of the schools were being stubborn and rejected this proposal. U.A was surprisingly in support of this proposition, most likely Nezu was agreeing out of his fear of Midoriya, but it was still progress in the gauntlet wielder's eyes.

Sir Nighteye got back to work investigating the Shie Hassaikai. He had to continue business as usual as to not arouse suspicion. He was however keeping tabs on everything that Midoriya was publically working towards. Mirio kept working Nighteye, but also started to learn about politics in effort to find some sort of loop hole that could potentially take away Midoriya's influence over the government. Sadly he wasn't finding much luck in that route as Izuku's authority was air tight and absolute.

It was around this time when the dust finally settled that Midoriya started getting messages delivered to him at the city based H.R.D office. People and families making important requests that left him feeling uneasy, but he still went ahead and replied. Now here he was paying a visit to the first request he received.

'This is the place.' Izuku looked out the window of his limousine as the vehicle came to a stop. There stood an average looking house, not rundown, but not fancy looking either. He opened the door and walked out. Izuku didn't bring any Titan's with him this time, as he would rather keep this a private affair and not draw attention to this little meeting.

Glancing towards the sky green eyes spotted a figure with metallic wings hovering high up above him. Originally he was to come to this house alone, but Uraraka insisted on following him, eager to get some more field practice with her wings. Giving her a wave and a smile that signaled for the girl to go patrol the area, Izuku steeled himself and walked up to the door. Ringing the bell he waited a bit until a middle aged woman opened the door.

"Hello. Director Midoriya" The woman greeted politely.

"Good day mam." Izuku nodded.

"Thank you for coming, please come inside." She held the door open for him to enter. Izuku walked inside taking a look around at the home as he did.

"I apologize that it took so long for your message to get to me. My department is still new and the offices are rather swamped lately with reports and calls." Izuku kept a neutral demeanor.
