Y/N POV

"You're Merlin! Boar's Sin of Gluttony! You're the kind lady from all those years ago! I haven't seen you in years! It's so great to see you again, Merlin!" I exclaim.

I pull her into a hug. She immediately hugs back and pats the top of my head.

"It's great to see you again, too, Clem. Although, you go by Y/N now...correct?" Merlin asks for conformation.

"Yep," I reply, nodding.

We pull away from the hug. Merlin opens the door and we go inside.

"I can't believe it took me this long to realize it was you! Even after I was given the name, address, occupation, I still didn't get it until I saw you! *sigh* I am pretty disappointed in myself," I mumble the last part.

"It's alright, it took me a moment to recognize you during the sports festival. You changed your name and have a slightly different appearance," Merlin reassures, giving me a small smile.

"Thanks, Lady Merlin," I reply.

"Oh, here we are," Merlin announces and opens the large door to her laboratory-like area.

This place looks like a generic magic workshop! Wow...! She's really done a lot over the past two years...

"So...you've done it again?" Merlin says out of nowhere.

Oh...she must have recognized what happened...didn't Aizawa say it was nighttime for like 20 minuets?

"It was all over the news... 'Mysteriously Turned to Night in Early Afternoon'...*sigh* The moon dragon appeared again. You still haven't unleashed any of your wrath, I'm still not sure if that's a good or bad thing. Anyway, we should start training you to use and control this power better...it also wouldn't hurt to help come up with more uses for your halo," Merlin says, turning around and flipping through a nearby book.

Why did she call it power...? It's a mutation of my quirks...it's caused by the experiments and the raw power of my quirks...

I walk over to Merlin's side. I look down at the book.

Woah...

The pages are covered in mythical creatures, monsters, and plants. There is also a magic language written on the pages. Most people don't understand what the writing is, it just looks like a bunch of random symbols, swirls, and chicken scratch. But to Merlin, Touya, me, and a few others...it's no different than reading our first language...unless it's like your first language because you were taught it when you were first learning to read.

"Here. Let's try to get you to teleport. You can go to a shadow or shaded area and turn into in then a shadow. You can travel to another shadow or exit out of the same one. You can turn your body back into ink from the shadows, then from the ink to your normal self," Merlin explains.

I give her a confused look.

"I've been doing research on your quirks, remember?" Merlin reminds.

"Oh...yeah...I forgot...thank you for doing that," I reply.

"No problem, now time to train!" Merlin announces.

I walk over to a shaded corner. I rest my hand against the wall and 'melt' into ink, concentrating on turning into a shadow. After many attempts, I finally got it.

I appear across the room in another shaded corner.

I continue moving around the house to different shaded area until I have it down pretty good.
