Fenrir: The Wolf Overlord

Chapter 18 - Confrontation

"Are you okay?"

Cipher slowly brought his hands down from his face and turned back. He wore an blank expression and stared at the figure of Yui.

She was not alone. There were six girls behind her. Among them, four of them were casually waving at him. He ignored them and stood up from his chair while sighing softly.

He still had his food remaining on the plate. But all of his appetite was already gone, replaced by extreme anger and disappointment.

"What about you? Those fools were pushing you quite a lot."

"I am okay."

Yui nodded her head and smiled. Cipher didn't give her an answer but she didn't point it out for him. The next moment, as if she realized something, she looked at the six girls besides her and then back at Cipher.

A light blush suddenly appeared on her face and she closed her mouth shut. Cipher looked at her strangely, and she started lowering her head in response.

"Hello, my name is Itsuka Kendo. I am Yui's friend."

At this same time, one of the girl brought her hand forward and laughed out sheepishly. Cipher slightly turned his head and stared down at the hand. He then looked at the girl.

"And my name is Se-"

Another girl started speaking and Cipher immediately brought his hands in front of her face.

"I have some things to do."

He blankly exclaimed out and started walking away from that place. He wasn't going to stay here and listen to some lousy introductions. He had more important to do.

'All For One..'

Cipher thought of his nemesis as he walked towards the place where he could smell out All Might. He had finally decided.

He had decided to throw away his meaningless pride and ask of an favour from the hero he hated the most. He had decided to do what benefits him and Yui the most, even if he had to throw away his fake identity.

Looking out the window, he knew that the pro heroes of this school has finally become serious. Even the police had arrived to manage the tumultuous crowd of reporters.

He could guess that the security of this place will been increased to its maximum limit from now on. But, he was still not convinced. He was still cautious of an incoming invasion, as the annoying feeling he experienced hadn't completely disappeared yet.

'..Bastards, what are you planning? Why did you pull away without a fight?"

~~~~~

Yui slowly raised her head and looked at Cipher who was walking away from them. She was genuinely worried because he had looked like a mess, so much that she couldn't figure out if he was angry, afraid, annoyed or what not.

"Yui, you surprised me there. I never thought you will start a conversation."

"Nn"

One of the girl exclaimed out as she made a funny expression. Yui simply nodded her head and smiled weakly at her.

"That guy is a bastard. He completely shunned me away."

The girl who Cipher had ignored earlier, shouted out in disdain. Yui looked at her and wanted to say something but she didn't get the chance to. Itsuka Kendo had grabbed her arms before she could, and tried to calm her down.

"No need to be frustrated. He may really be busy, Setsuna."

"That guy is the one who you come to school together, right? Who is he and what is he to you?"

At the same time, a girl with two horns on her head shook Yui and excitedly asked her. It took some time for her to process what she said. After which, she lowered her head in humility and muttered softly.

"Nn"

Some Time Later

~~~~~

Cipher had reached before a door. It was the teacher's office. He lightly knocked on the door and waited. Some seconds later, All Might opened the door and was surprised to find him there.

"Young Cipher, why are you here?"

Cipher glared at the man in front of him and entered the room without replying. He approached one of the chair present in the room, and directly sat on it. He then looked at All Might and finally opened his mouth.

"All Might, do me a favour, will you?"

"...What is this favour?"

All Might sighed out seeing his blatant disrespect. But he had responded out calmly. He soon closed the door and reverted to his skinny form. He walked upto the sofa in front of Cipher, and sat on it.

"All For One-"

Cipher muttered out the name after All Might sat down completely. All Might had instantly flinched hearing his mutter, but he wasn't done yet.

"You fought against him 5 years ago, didn't you?"

"..What makes you think that?"

All Might calmed himself down and questioned out a little frustrated. He was frustrated at remembering All For One.

"So you won't deny that?"

"Will you believe me if I denied it?"

Cipher shook his head and tapped on the table. He checked the state of the number one hero with a glance and decided to directly go to the main topic.

"I really believe that the injury you received on your c.h.e.s.t was because of him. The fact that you are alive means that you defeated him. So my main question is, what is All For One's status right now?"

This time, All Might looked at Cipher seriously. He really found it weird because Cipher knew All For One and was visibly worried over his well-being. But he knew he would have to wait to get all the answers.

"I dealt the final blow to him. He should already be dead."

He spoke out seriously but he was slightly depressed admitting it himself. The Symbol Of Peace talking about killing someone didn't sit well with him.

But it wasn't like Cipher gave a shit about what All Might does. He only came here to get all the answers that was bugging him since the morning.

"Did you really kill him?"

"...Yes"

"Then how is his naive student appearing and disappearing in the school premises repeatedly?"

"Wha-"

All Might nearly choked out in surprise when he heard his sudden declaration, especially the part of 'student'. Cipher didn't give time for him to process his thoughts and continued.

"Besides he has multiple quirks and he doesn't have a problem using all of them at once, right? So let me ask you again, did you really kill him? He might just have a regeneration quirk in his hands."

Cipher waited. All Might took this chance to slowly process all the information and finally spoke out in a frustrated tone.

"What you said is true. He might be alive even now."

"Right."

Cipher admitted frustrated by All Might. He clicked his tongue and glared at this hero who was naive to the very last bit of his cells.

"Was his student the one to destroy the gate?"

"Yeah."

Cipher blankly nodded his head. But All Might still noticed the hatred directed towards him. Yeah, Cipher's annoyance and anger, especially his hatred kept on leaking out even though he tried his best to suppress it.

"Thank you of informing me about it..So how do you know him?"

"....."

'So he has finally asked?'

Cipher looked up at the ceiling frustrated. He came to this place to get information about All For One from All Might. But he didn't get any reliable information and now he has to expose his identity as well.

He turned his sight at All Might and sighed out deeply. He couldn't say anything other than the truth. It would make him even more suspicious. So the only thing he could say was the truth.

He should have already guessed this outcome, after all nothing works out when he d.e.s.i.r.ed it. Moreover, it was only a matter of time before his identity was revealed to this guy.

"Do you remember the name 'Ghost'? That was the name you heroes gave to me."

At the same time Cipher spoke, All Might gasped out sharply and proceeded to stare at him in disbelief. After some time, he finally seemed to realize something.

"So that's what you said at that time. I remember it now. The four of us met six years ago."

"Yes, that's right. You had spared us out of pity at that time."

"But you were not....."

All Might suddenly stopped and realized that they were diverting from the main topic. He never heard why Cipher knew All Fro One so well.

"You never told me how you knew that bastard?"

Cipher looked at him begrudgingly. He was really fuming out in anger at All Might right now. At the end, he couldn't hold himself back from cursing out.

"Can't you guess, you motherf.u.c.k.i.n.g bastard? You lured him to my home."

All Might suddenly flinched. He made a surprised face as if he heard the most unbelievable thing in his entire life, and this further made Cipher angry.

"I did?"

He had a look of disbelief but inwardly, he had already realized it. He already knew what Cipher said could really be true.

On the other hand, Cipher looked at this hero angrily and stopped himself from accidentally ripping his head out from his body in anger.

He had full confidence that he could do it right now. After all, All Might had unconsciously dropped all of his guard right now.

"...I am sorry."

After some time, All Might weakly apologized to Cipher as he could guess the outcome of his meeting with All For One. He himself found the flow of event to be extremely relatable.

On the other hand, Cipher roughly nodded his head as he held his right hand with his shaky left hand tightly. He had an extremely distorted expression of anger and hatred on his face, and he didn't even bother hiding it.

"I have full confidence that you are again the main reason why this school was targeted by him."

All Might simply nodded his head and looked down at the floor, ashamed of himself. He had already realized that he was the target as soon as he heard the school was targeted.

On the other hand, Cipher could no longer hold himself back and stood up from his chair. He stomped on the table and held All Might by the collar of his shirt. His other hand turned into sharp claws and he brought them near his frail neck.

"If by any chance, something were to happen to Yui, I am not going to settle for the heads of that kid and that man.

I am ripping out your head as well, even if I have to destroy my entire body. Remember this well, All Might."

"...I don't plan on making that mistake. I will protect everyone in this school."

Hearing him, Cipher pushed the frail guy back to the sofa and pulled his leg down from the table. Once he started speaking of the past, he wasn't able to hold back his hatred. And he had already talked more than he needed to. But he didn't regret it one bit.

He silently created a mask to hide his raging emotions and proceeded to walk away. But he was stopped in his tracks by the serious tone of All Might.

"Cipher"

All Might could see Cipher with a blank expression and gaze. It really contrasted with his previous expression, so much that it even spooked him out a bit. But it didn't stop him from saying out what he must.

"I will be expecting that you don't kill anybody as well. If you do, I will seriously capture you this time."

"Do you think of me as a kid? I have never killed anyone innocent until now."

Cipher spat out and started walking away. When he reached the door, he suddenly realized that he could put this weakened bastard to good use. So he slowly turned back to him and spoke out.

"Oi, All Might."

"Hm?"

"Let's have a battle."
