Chapter 48

Mizuno leapt from her seat and let out a squeak in fear.

I couldn't blame her for a gigantic iceberg was literally a few centimeters away from penetrating us.

Shinso just leaned into his seat calmly as usual when something somewhat life-threatening happens.

I shook my head in denial, I'll never get how he manages to look that calm every time.

Todoroki 'Koi fish' Shoto, as dubbed by Mizuno, is an absolute powerhouse. In the match, he faced Sero, tape boy, and didn't even bother to use his flames. He just decided to freeze Sero in one go with the iceberg, which caused the majority of the audience to shout out 'Don't mind!' to Sero, who was frozen amidst the iceberg. I am not sure if Sero appreciates being pitied by the audience, but if I were him, I would have just felt humiliated.

I squinted and spotted Todoroki right away due to his signature half red and half white hair. He placed his left hand on the freezing iceberg and the ice around Sero started melting.

Looking at Todoroki reminded me of that weird staple-piercing guy from a few days ago. What is the connection between them? The only one connection I can think of is that they both have blue eyes. But loads of people have blue eyes in Japan, especially with quirks considered. The staple-piercing guy could also be wearing blue eye contacts that day, hiding his original eye colour. There are so many possibilities and I still haven't figured out the connection between them. But it's only been a few days right? I still have time to work out the connection between them.

The speakers squeaked before a loud voice boomed through, "Listeners! It'll take some time before the next match commences due to the elephant in the room, the iceberg! We're in the middle of melting it, so for now, please wait patiently and listen to my SON——"

Another voice, this time gloomier, joined in, "We're not listening to your song, mic. Would anyone, with a quirk related to heat, want to come down and help speed up the process? We would greatly appreciate it, thank you."

Several pro heroes went up to the iceberg and started the process of melting it.

People cheered loudly for Sero when he was finally freed from the ice cold of the iceberg. The medical robot immediately sprung up to life and started escorting Sero to one of the exits to allow him to receive medical attention from Recovery Girl.

Where was Endeavour? The number two flame hero would surely be a great help...

Turning my head around a few times, I finally found him in the opposite audience area. Why isn't he going down to help?

Shinso chuckled, "Endeavour is just standing there."

How did he know what I was about to say?

As if he heard my question, he answered with a tiny smile, "You have been staring intensely at that direction for about a minute now."

I blinked, that cleared the mystery.

A sound similar to rocket blasters filled the air.

Ah, and there he goes.

Endeavour must have sensed our stares because he immediately flew up near the tips of the iceberg like a rocket man to help out.

Mizuno pouted, "Ah, and I thought you two were linked telepathically. There goes my theory."

"A game theory." I added in with a smirk.

I looked back at Shinso.

Shinso just sent me a tiny smile and turned to observe the rocket man, which reminded me of the song 'rocket man' by Elton John.
