Nobody's POV

It has been 2 months since Midoriya Izuku has joined the Happy Hotel. He's still getting used to be in Hell, but at least he's not alone. With Charlie and Vaggie's help he understood more than just what Rosie told him.

Charlie taught Izuku about the History of Hell and about some locations, so Izuku could travel around Hell with getting lost. Vaggie taught Izuku about how to survive in Hell and what locations and things to avoid if Izuku wants to stay in the Hotel.

After that Izuku decides he might as well help Charlie with the business side of her hotel. At first Charlie declined Izuku's help because he already is the therapist and the bodyguard for the hotel, but after Izuku explains how just going off determination and dreams can only take you so far in the real world especially now since there in Hell and to trust him because he's made that mistake before. 

Charlie asked Izuku about it, but Izuku says he will tell her another time, but right now we need to build up the hotel's reputation and we need funding. Charlie asked how and why they would need funding when they could rely on her family's wealth. Izuku explained that people tend to look down on other people who just get hand-me-downs because they never worked hard for their achievements and how the reputation is so they could get investors for the hotel and inspire people to come and check out the hotel and hopefully check in.

Izuku suggest that maybe they all should go for a walk and sightsee around Hell to see if Charlie gets any ideas for what to do as her first duet. Vaggie at first protest to the idea saying it's dangerous and why can't they just drive around instead. Izuku retorted saying you tend to miss details and conversations while in a vehicle than you would walking around.

After coaxing Vaggie into agreeing to the walk, Izuku, Charlie, and Vaggie strolled through Pentagram City. The chaos of Hell surrounded them—hustling demons, crumbling buildings, and the constant cacophony of an unforgiving world.


Izuku's sharp eyes scanned the surroundings, noting the stares and murmurs directed at them. His time in Hell had taught him that judgment here wasn't as hidden as in the living world. Yet he felt something else—a yearning, almost imperceptible, among the crowd.


"Charlie," Izuku said softly, glancing at the demon princess. "What do you think is the one thing people here need the most?"


Charlie turned to him, her bright expression dimming as she thought. "Hope?"


Izuku nodded. "Exactly. But hope doesn't just come from words. It's something you show. Something people can feel."


Charlie stopped walking and looked at him, her eyes lighting up with determination. "Then let's give them hope. Right here, right now."


Before Izuku could respond, she pulled him toward an open plaza where a crowd of sinners and demons had gathered to bicker and barter. "Let's sing something," she said, her voice brimming with excitement.


Izuku hesitated. "Sing? Here? Are you sure that's a good idea?"
