The police investigation ended after the last student was questioned and treated with their minor injuries.

The students were ushered on to the bus back to the campus. Aki, after Itsuka embarrassingly released him from the bear hug, followed the crowd, before getting pulled to the side by a familiar voice.

"Mochizuki-kun, may I talk to you?"

Dogen Emma, in her red kimono with a black, long coat approached. She gestured to an empty spot under a tree before walking there with Aki behind.

When they arrived, Emma took a quick look around as if she was checking for anyone else. Confirmed that there was no one near enough to listen in to the conversation, she started.

"I heard of what happened. It must have been terrible. How are you feeling, Mochizuki-kun?"

Slightly taken aback and comforted by the warm voice and smile, Aki answered.

"I'm...fine, I guess. Just a little out of it, you know. Considering I just resurrected..."

She gently nod. Her voice was still at the same tone but her smile however, turned into a more serious one as she gazed at him.

"That's also why I'm here."

"To.... ask about my Quirk? I know it's weir-"

"To warn you."

Aki shy demeanor was immediately changed to a serious one. His eyes narrowed as it stared at Emma, as if studying her. Taking that as a signal, she continued.

"Your Quirk, Resurrection, is a powerful one. One of a kind, to be more precise. Needless to say there will be more than a few who wants it for their own, and not all of them with good intention."

"Thank you for the heads-up, but I can't think of anyway for anyone to take my Quirk. Even my classmate's Quirk, Copy, has a time-limited."

"There are many things are there that we aren't aware of. No evidence of their existence, also means no evidence of them NOT existed."

"You're saying there are a way to take other people's Quirk?"

"I'm saying you need to be prepared for anything. Though I believe Wolf-sama has taught you that already."

Aki's eyes widen with shock at his master name was mentioned while Emma's serious gaze relaxed, turning into a nostalgic look with a giggle.

"I believe that's something you need to discuss with him. Wouldn't want your classmate to wait any further."

She smiled at Ibara, who was approaching them. Aki turned around looking at her for a second, before returning his stare at Emma.

".... We'll talk later. Take care. Dogen-san."

"You as well. And as I told you, please call me Emma."

"What were you guys talking about?"

Ibara broke the awkward silence as she and Aki walked back to the bus.

"She was just checking up on me after I got....." He made a slash over his neck with a smile, "you know."

Ibara slightly giggle before her expression turned into a gloomy one, which Aki quickly picked up.

"..... What's wrong?"

"I.... You got..... You were..... dead because of my carelessness. I was supposed to be hero, someone who protect others instead of being protected.
