Silent Vigil

----

In a world where strength is measured by power, Izuku Midoriya was born Quirkless-and told by even All Might himself that he could never be a hero. Crushed but not broken, Izuku forges a new path in the shadows.

No longer chasing glory, he becomes Observer, an anonymous and brilliant Quirk analyst who studies heroes, villains, and battlefield tactics with frightening precision. From behind a screen, he begins to change the tide of real battles-saving lives without ever being seen.

As war brews beneath the surface of hero society, Izuku's insight becomes a weapon more valuable than any Quirk. But when his identity starts to unravel, Izuku must face a terrifying truth: even in the shadows, being a hero carries risk.

He may not have power.
But he has purpose.
And sometimes, that's enough to change everything.
