Fenrir: The Wolf Overlord

Chapter 16 - Hurry

Cipher sensed slight movement from his shoulder and stopped walking. He turned his head and looked over his shoulder.

"You are awake."

"..Ugh..."

Kirishima simply grunted and didn't even try to move. Cipher didn't care much about him being in pain so he resumed walking towards the monitor room once again.

"...How.. How did you become so strong?"

As he was getting nearer to his destination, Kirishima spoke out in a weak voice. He was still not moving because of the pain but he seemed to be able to talk.

On the other hand, Cipher didn't respond immediately. He was a little annoyed hearing the question, because the main reason was of course, because they had lived completely differently.

"You are a sheltered kid. That's all there is to it."

Cipher finally spoke out. Though his tone sounded disappointed and annoyed, he had only answered because he has come to respect Kirishima's strong will to become stronger.

But of course, the way he sounded was completely the opposite. And Kirishima thought differently as well.

"...Do you think..I.. cannot be strong?"

Cipher pushed the door open and entered the monitor room casually. He got a lot of eyes attached on him but he ignored them all.

"Don't focus on your quirk alone and keep pushing your body to the limit. If you do that, you will surely be strong."

Cipher blankly answered. He soon reached before All Might and directly proceeded to drop both Kirishima and the still unconscious girl on the floor. He was sure that All Might will catch them.

And All Might did. He caught their body in his arms and swiftly checked them over with a glance. He immediately wanted to get them to the infirmary but he still wanted to say a word or two.

"Young Cipher, You did a lot of damage to both of them. I may have said that this was a real battle expe.."

Cipher causally took what All Might said through one ear and out the other. Fortunate for him, All Might was soon forced to stop talking when he heard a voice, moreover from an unexpected person.

"..Cipher.."

Cipher slowly moved his eyes away from All Might and at his arm which held Kirishima.

Kirishima was forcing himself to raise his head and he stared at Cipher with an extremely determined gaze. He soon shakily raised one of his hands and grasped it into a fist.

"Next time.. it will.. not be the same."

Cipher grinned at his words. On the other hand, All Might looked at the two of them incredibly. He soon sighed and decided to do what he must.

"Young Kirishima, you two can talk later. I am taking you to the infirmary first."

Kirishima only nodded his head weakly. All Might got the gesture and turned to look at his other students.

"The remaining two teams will have to wait. But don't worry, I will be here in a zip."

He then disappeared from the room at blinding speed. Cipher scoffed from the show off and turned back.

He started walking towards his former teammate and took his gauntlet from his hands silently.

Nobody in the room talked openly until now, but many of them did whisper to each other. They were whispering about none other than him. Cipher could hear them before and still hear them clearly, but he didn't a shit about it. He just wanted to be left alone. So what they did was actually good help to him.

Well, most of them had tried to approach him before but he had always intimidated them and stopped them from talking to him. So, it was not like they will approach him a second time. Cipher was sure that this applied to many people.

He turned back and saw Bakugou, giving him a intense glare. Seeing this kid, he couldn't help but click his tongue.

"I see that you are still a kid through and through."

Cipher expressed out his disappointment since Bakugou still seemed to be lamenting over his loss.

" What did you say, bastard?"

Bakugou immediately shouted out but he didn't bother batting an eye with this grown kid anymore.

Cipher basically ignored Bakugou, and glanced at another person who also seemed to be frustrated over his loss. This time, he only scoffed and walked over to an empty corner of the room.

Next Morning

~~~~~

The entrance to U.A High School was completely blocked off by a crowd of reporters. They were preventing everyone from entering the school.

The 'everyone' also included Cipher. He was silently glancing around the crowd the whole time. He was really annoyed because every single one of them was stopping him just for asking about All Might.

They were asking him about none other than the number 1 hero, the hero who he hated the most. There was no way he would not be angry and annoyed.

But he was unusually maintaining his calm and was walking silently, while ignoring all the reporters. One main reason was bacause Yui was beside him. Even though she was silent, just her being there helped him a lot.

But like they say, everything and everyone has a limit.

Cipher abruptly stopped in his tracks when he sniffed out a very familiar smell. Seconds later, Yui also stopped and stared at him strangely.

"What happened?"

She asked out in a soft tone but Cipher didn't respond to her. He sniffed out the air with a serious expression and abruptly started shoving away all the reporters surrounding the two of them. He finally stopped when a kid entered his vision.

'..He Is...'

Cipher could no longer hold himself back. He released his murderous aura and it only got stronger and stronger by the second.

All the reporters and even students near him flinched greatly and unconsciously started to step away from him. Yui was no exception. She could never get used to his terrifying presence even if she has faced it twice.

But she soon managed to get her senses back. She clenched her shaky hands and looked at Cipher with a worried gaze. She then saw him looking at a place warily. She tried to follow his gaze but she was pulled back before she could.

"Let's go. There's no point in staying here."

Cipher had pulled her by her arm. His terrifying presence was still lingering around him but Yui realized that he was somehow a little calmer than before. So, she silently let him pull her into the school premises.

No reporters tried to stop them this time and even the students avoided them, especially Cipher like a plague. Due to that, the two of them had reached inside the school gate within seconds.

Cipher didn't stop though. He kept on pulling Yui by her arms, as if he was in a hurry.

Only when they reached inside the school building, Cipher finally stopped and let go of his grip on her arms. Yui also stopped beside him and proceeded to rub her arms lightly.

"Sorry! Did I grab your arm too hard?"

He questioned out in worry as he saw Yui rubbing her arm. On the other hand, she slightly nodded her head and looked up at him seriously.

"What happened? What did you see?"

Cipher remained silent. He simply raised his right hand and put it on top of her head. Then he finally spoke out in a blank tone.

"Nothing much."

Yui pouted a little and glared at him, trying to look as angry as possible. Seeing this, Cipher forced a small smile on his face and started rubbing her head.

"You don't have to wo..."

"You are acting very weird, Cipher."

He abruptly stopped mid sentence. He soon realized his mistake and sighed. He had acted a lot different than his normal behaviour.

But he couldn't help it. Some of his worst memories had suddenly popped in front of the school. But he should have already expected it, considering that All Might has started teaching in this place.

'That bastard has done it once again.'

Cipher looked around the place and sighed for a second time, realizing that there was no one around.

"Some bastards have arrived."

"Bastards?"

Cipher nodded his head. He pulled his right hand away from her head and spoke out solemnly.

"But those bastards are actually just some fools. They won't attack us when there are so many heroes present."

"....."

Yui silently stared at him. She really found it difficult to believe everything Cipher said. He laughed out in self mockery as he realized what she was thinking.

"But I don't know whether they will attack us outside of the school. So Yui, don't leave the school without me at any cost."

"....."

Yui suddenly turned silent. Cipher looked at her weirdly until a faint smile formed on her face.

"Nn"

She nodded her head with the smile growing larger than before. Her mood seemed to had suddenly taken a complete turn for the good.

Cipher was a little taken aback by this but he didn't give it much focus. He still had to act fast because there was no telling whether he said would really be true or not.

'I guess I should talk to Aizawa as soon as possible.'
