《Legendary (Discontinued for now)》Chapter 3: Break Through Your Limits
Advertisement
'What is this place' Izuku thought, completely oblivious to the fact that he was naked and flying. He was surrounded by clouds of all sizes. He was flying through them, over them, under them. Izuku looks in every direction, but all he can see are clouds (not the types to make it rain or storm, but peaceful ones), clear skies above said clouds and endless horizons.
'Is this the sky?' Under normal circumstances, Izuku would've slapped himself for asking such a retarded question but this was NOT a normal circumstance. The sky, instead of being blue, was shining golden white, and the clouds were glowing brilliant hues of yellow and gold.
Then out of the blue, its started to drizzle, but not with water, but with small white particles.
Izuku was in complete bliss, the particles were hitting him like raindrops, but instead of feeling what he expected , he only felt just small pricks of cold before feeling warm, it was as if his body was absorbing the particles. A little while later, the particle shower stopped, leaving an energised Izuku
'Lets see what I can do now' He started to fly with absolute joy and happiness, he was doing loops and barrel rolls.
Izuku decided to test his limit and began going heavenward.
'Lets see how far I can go!'
He kept going higher and higher. The light from the sky was getting brighter and brighter to the point that if anyone else would have seen the light, their eyeballs would have melted through their skull. But it didn't faze Izuku, the light didn't strain his eyes. He didn't know why but he felt like he was the happiest person alive.
'WOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOO!!!'
.

"Huh"
Izuku looked around to find himself on the floor of his room
'It felt so real'
Izuku got up to check his phone to see what time it was since he put away his All Might Clock.
'4:30, still dark. I have a lot of time before I have to meet Sensei, I think I will go out for a walk, All Might and Titan are still asleep....... I think'
Izuku changed into simple blue track suit and pants and wore a pair of runners he bought a few weeks ago.
He carefully snuck out of the house to not wake up the Pro Heroes and started to jog lightly
'Man, that dream was something else' He thought as he jogged towards the nearest beach to observe the dawn break
'I still feel like I can just fly away, what's more is that dream suddenly made me want to look at the sunrise'
Izuku soon arrived at the beach. He went near the water and waited for the sun to rise.
'I wonder, what kind of things I have to do today..... dealing with accounts, management or maybe even basic weapons designing. Oh no! what if I disappoint him on the first day, I don't want to embarrass myself'
Izuku was about to go into a panic attack when he noticed the distant horizon lightning up
'Well, at least I can watch the sunrise'
As soon as the first rays of sunlight hit Izuku, his entire body began glow white with a little touch of gold. And although it was not blinding, it was bright enough for Izuku to notice.
He could actually feel himself becoming more aware of his surroundings and was filled with stamina. It was like he got charged like a cellphone. He just stood there for the entire sunrise. When the last bit of the sun went above the horizon, his body finally stopped glowing. There was only one thing that ran through Izuku's mind.....

"WHAT. THE. FUCK. WAS. THAAAAT"
He soon began to panic like there was no tomorrow. A million thoughts went through his head.
'Is this my quirk!?, did that strange dream have something to do with this?' Why did it show up 9 years after when it was supposed to'
Ring-Ring
Izuku was brought out of his thoughts and questions by his phone ringing. He took it out to see that it was Titan.
"Hello? Izuku?"
"Yeah"
"Where are you!? Your father and I are worried sick!?"
"I'm fine, just wanted to take a walk, besides what are you two afraid of anyway"
"Its just that the streets are dangerous nowadays, especially after the sludge villain incident, and we also wanted to tell you that we have to go back to Tokyo today for some important business meeting and thought if you wanted a lift to your Job"
"I think I'm old enough to defend myself or at the very least capable to call for help..... I know I'm quirkless but at least have some faith in me. And no I don't want your lift" Izuku retorted before hanging up.
'Something is definitely wrong with him, me and Toshi have to talk to him as soon as we come back'
Izuku returned home to find some breakfast and a note saying that his parents will come back after 3 weeks.
Izuku half heartedly ate the breakfast, got ready and began his short journey to the office building, nervous as hell.
Izuku stood outside of a very modern looking office building
'So this is it,
This is where my life begins
One small step for me, one giant leap for......... me, damn it Izuku no time to make jokes'
He was a about to enter, but was stopped by two heavily armed and armoured guards whose name tags read out and .
"What do you you think you're doing, don't you know that The Boss is inside"
"Anyone without an ID or Special pass is forbidden to go inside"
"Wait, I do have a pass"
Izuku then gave the visiting card from yesterday to the guards, the guards at first thought that it was a joke, since the CEO stopped using that type of visiting card, then they scanned it to make sure it was genuine
.
.
and it was.
"Sorry for the inconvenience, sir"
Both the guards were now standing in attention which startled Izuku and made him very confused
"Umm, its f-fine, everyone makes mistakes"
"Thank you, Sir! "
"Uuuuh, can I ask you something?"
"Anything, Sir! "
"Why are you calling me 'Sir'? , I mean I'm just here for an internship, I don't even work here yet"
The guards looked at each other and thought the same thing
'Does he not know?'
"Sir, you carrying this particular type of business card already makes you a High Priority Individual, moreover, this card has His signature on it, which only shows your importance. This means that you can even ask for pickups and bodyguards. " The first guard spoke
"Show this card to anyone from the office and they would be happy to provide any help they can. Also, just show this to the people working in the cafeteria and they'll give all food you want for free and yes they WILL address you by 'Sir'. " The second one added.
Now Izuku was extremely confused, how could he, an Intern get HPI status, that too granted by the CEO of the company. Izuku would've pondered a little more, then he realised that he did save the man's life, yesterday.

But still, he did not expect the HPI status.
"Well t-then, I should better get going. Can you please tell me where Mr. Schmidt is?"
"Sure thing, he's in the VIP lounge, second floor. Anything else, Sir?"
Before Izuku entered, he said something which the guards didn't expect someone with a HPI status to say, mostly because till date, everyone who got that status were spoilt, arrogant assholes, who would misuse the power and often misbehave with the people working in the office and even offices in other parts of the world which led to Schmidt not giving anyone HPI status for a long time....... until yesterday.
"Yes, I do have a request, please tell everyone in the office to not call me 'Sir', it does not look nice, nor does it feel right to me. I mean, everyone in the office is way more experienced in work and life than me, moreover all of you are at least 7 years older than me, if anything I should be the one calling you 'Sir'.
Anyways, I should get going, see ya later, William and you too Kaito." After which, Izuku went inside.
The two guards and the office workers who were about to enter were thoroughly impressed with the kid's behaviour, and only one thought was present in thier minds.
'What a kind and humble young man'.
What they didn't know was that the CEO and his butler were listening to the entire conversation from the balcony, all the while smiling to themselves.
"You've made the right choice, Sir"
"I guess I did, Faulkner,
I guess I did"
Izuku knocked on the door before entering the lounge, the door opened to reveal a man, most like in his 40s,with grey hair and brown eyes.
"Aaa, you must be Izuku Yagi, I'm Joseph Faulkner, Mr. Schmidt's butler and Doctor, nice to meet you" The butler with the oddly cliché British accent said
"Nice to meet you too, Mr. Faulkner" Izuku said whill shaking Faulkner's hand
"Come on in, Adelbert is waiting for" Izuku went in and immediately recognised a certain person sitting on the couch of the very expensive looking lounge, sorting some papers, next to him were three small boxes.
"Ah, Izuku you made it exactly on time"
"Didn't want to disappoint you, Sensei"
Schmidt only gave a small smile
"Come and take a seat" Izuku did as he was told and took the seat beside the CEO.
"So here's how your internship will go, for the first 7 days, you will answer these multiple choice questions that I have prepared for you, I think you will be able to complete them within 1 hour, after which a couple of the office workers will teach you about management, accounting, entrepreneurship, physics, chemistry, and I will teach you about basic weapon mechanics and design. At the end of the day you will give another test related to everything that you've been taught throughout the day. I know that It will be tough and that I'm asking a lot from you, but you must understand that your school will reopen soon and I won't be here anymore. Next week we'll go to Munich, to tell teach you about army management and to increase your Tactical skills.
Also, you will help the office workers with the knowledge you acquire which is why I will be paying you.
So how does it sound"
.
.
.
.
"I'll do it, I am extremely lucky to have a teacher like you and I will do any thing to make you proud of me, I will not give you a single chance to complain"
"No hesitation, eh? I like it"
"But there is one thing that I did not understand, what do you mean that you won't be here anymore?"
"O-Oh, by that I mean that I will be in.... in Africa! Of course, you know terrorist groups and things of those nature, nothing for you to worry about"
"A-Any way, here this is your MCQ test paper and I've got something else for you"
Schmidt then took the three boxes and opened them. The first box contained a very expensive custom made cellphone, the second one contained a very expensive watch, and the third contained an expensive pen.
"Take these, and yes, I won't take no for an answer, I saw how badly damaged and old gen your phone is, and since you will be doing a lot of con-calls, you will need a better phone"
"Thank you Sensei, very much"
"I should tell you about the two speed dials of the phone. You see, if you press the power button 7 times, a limo will be dispatched immediately to your location from the office building and if you press the same button 16 times, a Secure and defend 'SECDEF' squad will be sent to you. This is because you are learning directly under me, and I can't have any student of mine be in dangerous situations without giving them a way out of it."
"I understand"
"Now then, start your test"
Seven days have gone by, and every single one of Izuku's teachers were impressed with the boy, he had also become popular with all the workers of the office since he always helps them with even the smallest things. The entire office respected him and was very attached to the boy, not because he was HPI status, but because of his genuine good personality. Moreover, he never wanted much, he only wanted the office workers to accept him as he was and they did. Schmidt couldn't be more sure that he picked the right person to hand down his company to as the morning tests had secret moral questions, and as he expected, Izuku picked only the best answers. Izuku also assumed that the whole sunrise thing happens after every seven days, since it happened today too. He would look into it more after his internship was over.
Izuku was getting ready to leave after his seventh day when he was stopped by Schmidt.
"Izuku, you have impressed not only me, but the entire office. You also passed all the tests with flying colors, how does it make you feel!?"
"To be honest Sensei, even I can't believe it, in just a week, my whole life has changed for the better"
"It happens, anyway here take this" Schmidt handed him an envelope, Izuku opened it to find a credit card and bank passbook with Izuku's name one it.
"Ummm what is this?"
"Your salary"
"Salary. OH, SALARY!"Izuku said half screaming
"I completely forgot about that, but I kinda feel like I should be the one paying you guys since all of you taught me"
After hearing this, Adelbert smiled.
"Nonsense, you've helped a lot of people here. Now go and get yourself some new clothes and a bag. Meet me at 8 AM on the roof top helipad tomorrow. We're heading to
Munich. And don't worry about any passport or visa"
"Thanks for this Opportunity Sensei, you have no idea how much you've helped me"
Izuku said before leaving the building
"And you have no idea how much at ease you've made me, Izuku Yagi" Schmidt said to no one in particular.
He had only 6 days left rather than 8 to make the final decision,as after another checkup, he discovered that the cancer cells were growing a little faster than they previously were.
Never in his wildest dreams did izuku think that he would go to Germany, but here he was, on a Private jet that was about to land on German soil
After being driven to the 7-Star hotel where he would be staying for the foreseeable future, he was given instructions on where and when he was to meet Schmidt and also what he will be learning.
The first two days went by more than perfectly, with Izuku already impressing his new teachers with is personality, tactical and analytical skills,but on the third day, all hell broke lose. Izuku as asked to make a report of a past battle, but he didn't have the writing materials, and since Izuku didn't like others to do his work, he went to the closest mall to buy them, Schmidt also joined him, but told his bodyguards to stay outside the mall as he didn't want to look intimidating, much to their protest.
"So Izuku, do you have everything you need?"
"Yes, Sensei, all I need now are a couple of File covers and I'll be goo-
There was a loud explosion, screaming people and shattered glass everywhere.
Izuku was shell-shocked and disoriented, he was knocked down on the ground by force of the explosion, once he got his bearings back he opened his eyes, and what he saw made his blood run cold......
He saw that is Sensei was being held my his neck by a villain
"IZUKU R-RUUUUN! GET AWAY FROM HERE"
"Oh, is that some one precious to you, well don't worry, he'll die once I kill you. You've a thorn on my side for far to long Schmidt"
Izuku didn't say anything just stood there staring at the ground.
Izuku's body felt warm. The same warmth he was feeling all those days.
The same warmth he felt in his dream.
Then, Izuku's body began to glow with same white gold color. His hair had turned golden blonde by now. This was the moment that Izuku's quirk had shone for the first time.
"let him go"
"Huh,,, or else what"
"I said LET HIM GO"
"huh," the villain let go of Schmidt and started to walk towards Izuku
"Well then, I think I should kill you infront of Schmidt"
"THE HELL ARE YOU DOING IZUKU, RUUUUN! " Adelbert said while lying on the ground,
"I'M GONNA HAVE FUN PUMMELLING YOU TO DEATH, BOY!"
The villain lifted his arm to kill Izuku but then, the unthinkable happened......
Izuku on instinct, directed all the power of his entire body to his right arm and punched the villain with so much force that it sent him through 4 buildings. The shock wave was so great that it sent everyone 25 feet in the other direction and the resulting air pressure took their breaths away, literally.
Izuku was exhausted and felt severe pain in his arm. About five seconds later, he passed out due to the pain and lack of stamina. Last thing he heard was Schmidt calling out his name.
Izuku woke up to see the face of Schmidt and Faulkner.
"Finally awake I see" Said Faulkner
"Good Morning, wanna have breakfast" Joked Schmidt
"Ha ha, very funny" Izuku tried to get up, but felt that his entire right arm was bandaged
"What the hell happened"
"You tell me, I thought you said you were quirkless! Moreover how the heck did you turn blonde! " Exclaimed Schmidt
"I don't know, I thought I was quirkless too, but"
"It seems that Izuku's quirk was dormant" Both Izuku and Schmidt raised an eyebrow at Faulkner's statement
"Dormant?"
"Yes, dormant, they may not be common but they aren't impossible.
You see, sometimes, to activate a quirk, a person needs to be....... lets say, motivated. That's exactly what happened to you, Izuku.
Did you ever feel any change in your body when you were in a tight situation? "
And then it clicked in his head, everything made sense.
"YES! every time I was in a bad situation, my body felt warm, although I discarded the idea of that being my quirk"
"Well whatever it was, you need to control it, look what it did to your body. Anyway Faulkner let the boy have some rest. The entire hotel is under my protection so you don't have to worry about anyone attacking it. Also, don't worry about your school, I already informed the Principal that you would rejoin after 1 week due to your injury, you should probably tell your parents about it too."
"I'll....... send a message"
Before Schmidt left, he said his final live words to Izuku
"Izuku, you have no idea how much you've helped me, I can finally be at peace now"
"Jees, no need to get all emotional on me" Izuku said with a smile
Adelbert returned it with sad smile
'If only I could've seen you grow into the shining Sun'
"Bye and........ Goodnight, Izuku"
"Goodnight Sensei"
'Why do I feel like its the last time I'm going to see him'
"Faulkner, call the lawyers"
The next day Schmidt took to his bed.
'I wonder why Sensei didn't visit yesterday, meh I think he's busy after the villain attack, speaking of which, I should check the news to see what was the aftermath of the attack '

Unique Fusion Magic Hex
World Essence. The mysterious energy coursing throughout the entire land of Vor'ten, and very possibly the entire world. This energy has allowed humanity to flourish, building great empires and vast kingdoms, conquering nature itself with just a sweep of their hand. Humans were the strongest existence, and with the help of channeling this World Essence, many were able to turn into Magic Knights, gaining magical abilities to combat the various fierce beasts throughout the lands.Alas... those glory days of old were long gone. Humanity has now been pushed to the brink of destruction, and now the remaining members of the human race are encased within giant domes known as 'Alkkras', made with the last remaining bits of the World Essence. It was said that those giant domes were the last gifts left by the remnants of the ancient human race, as a means to protect the future generation from the attacks of the many wild beasts roaming outside. Five Spiritualist Invokers, all combined together, used the last bit of the World Essence and sacrificed their lives to lay a gigantic, 1028-seal formation magic array to form these barriers, forever saving humanity, but also trapping humanity within these barriers.However, the humans were never completely helpless. No matter how little World Essence was left, the humans still had some remaining. Realizing the incoming crisis, the humans found a way to seal World Essence inside a special type of crystal. Soon, these crystals began to become implanted into weapons, turning them into World Essence Weapons, and they began to display properties of their own. Extreme heat. Bone chilling cold. Absurd sharpness. These normal weapons, after being imbued with the energy of the World Essence Crystals, began to form natural affinities to elements. Fire. Water. Earth. Wind. Darkness. Light. Using these weapons, one could become a Chevalier that wielded the power of the elements.However, if one wanted to reach a higher level of enlightenment and understanding, one could become an Invoker. Via the study of magic array formations, one could directly use the power of the World Essence to cast devastating magics upon the enemy. These people were Invokers, highly valued for their combat potential by the Army. These weapons and magical arrays were used in the great fight between the humans and the beasts long ago. They had long since been put away in storage, almost long forgotten...However, after ten-thousand years of suppression, the human race is beginning its counterattack against the Beasts... Synth was an Invoker in the Magecroft Academy. However, his talent was terrible, being only at the Spark Stage. This led to him being looked down upon and bullied. He was unable to cast any Calamity-rank or even Destruction rank spells, and was only able to cast Coalescing rank spells at the age of 17, a record low in the academy for cultivating these rare Invokers. Even though he put in more effort than anyone else, he was still unable to advance his Channeling Energy. But due to his constant research and study, Synth ended up creating a power that would go against the heavens - he had found how to Fuse spells together. After trying it out once, merging the magical array for the Small Fireball and the Mortal Judgement skills, he was able to create a mid-rank Destruction tier spell, Holy Judgement Flame. However, after this, no matter how hard he tried, he was unable to fuse more spells together or even cast them, and noticed a weird, pentagram shaped formation on his left arm. He would later call this mark the Fusion Magic Hex, a curse that prevented the wielder from casting magic that wasn't their own...This meant that with the exception of Synth's newly created skill, , he was going to have to create unique magic arrays if he ever wanted to step on the path of becoming an Invoker! This power that destroyed the laws of the Invoking System, and his unyielding persistence in testing and creating new spells, would later gain Synth the nickname the Unique Fusion Hex, and lead him to become one of the strongest beings in the entire World!
