Chapter 72

Title: Lethality...

….

As I am slammed into the boulder, my head smashes bqckward, I can feel my consciousness slipping away. My mind going back into the past, in a whole other life.

…

I look at my oldest son, a blonde-haired and brown-eyed young man, he just came from school all bruised and battered. He is already in high school, but disappointingly, he gets into a lot of fights. 

"I heard that you got into another fight." I reprimanded him.

He winces and looks at the ground. "Sorry father, it won't happen again."

"That is what you said last time," I tell him grudgingly, I am extremely disappointed, even though I try to keep a cold look on the outside. Only losers fight with their fists in these times. You can get nowhere with it unless you are the best at it. "Smart men don't fight with their fists."

That is all the advice I give him as he clenches his hand. Well, he doesn't need to know that the kid he fought with will get kicked out of school and will go to a less prestigious one where he won't be able to get to college. My son should be thankful, as one can't let enemies develop in their life.

….

My mind comes back to itself after this and I can't help but complain why did I have to think of such a useless memory in such dire times. 

Shouldn't it be a time of his happy moment flashing for motivation? Why is it just the depressive ones in which I interact with my children in my last life? Yes, I know I shouldn't have shut them from the outside world. But it didn't turn out bad in the end, they grew up to become strong, just like me… just like I was...

"You are weak." Says the Nomu as it gets closer to me. "You are not the best. Meaning that you are a loser."

Damn, its physical strength is monstrous, but it is also deeply enhanced by his speed. Which even my eyes can follow, so he is at least as fast in my <God Speed Mode> and unlike me, he can see the world around him.

It's probably one of the Quirks as Nomu's have a bunch of them that compliment each other.

Honestly, what I hate even more is the creature's voice that sounds eerily like mine. Or more correctly, he says some things that I would always say in my past life. 

I try to move, but my body can't move anymore. Me using my electricity was always just a mode of nerve enhancement, my body has always been normal and unable to follow up with my Quirk. Unlike the Nomu in front of me. Heh, if only I could have its powers, but sadly the world doesn't work like that. One can't get the things that he wants just by wishing for them.

Is this how I die? Will I lose my second chance so lamely? I couldn't put up a proper fight.

But… I AM NOT GOING TO GIVE UP SO EASILY!! 

I am a man not afraid of death!! I can look at death in the face and spit at it.

I send electrical signals through my body, careful to not overly damage the nerves. My body moves like the iron sand seems under my skin, I control it finely to put my bones in place and make sure that not even one grain of iron sand mixes with my blood. But instead, it just acts as a layer to hold my bones in place. 

I also incase my internal organs in the iron sand plate, so it acts as the outer layer of every organ and stops the bleeding.

This is something that I have had the idea for and even had the right control, but never tried since I was afraid that with one mishap, I would die.

Welp, now I will die either way, so I better take this chance. Heh… only a stupid man fight with his fists and body… well… I guess I better get myself a weapon. Since my eyes can't follow him anyway, my vision will be useless.

Iron sand gathers around me, and forms into my armor, I and the Nomu are now at similar sizes.

Fwosh!

He moves at incredible speeds as he comes towards me. I can't see him, but I am sent signals by the iron sand in the ground of his location.

Booom!!!

He punches the armor around me, but it doesn't have any effect. Though his fist does sink into the iron sand, he pulls it back out instantly though.

"You also have regeneration or something? I definitely felt your bones get broken before." The Nomu's voice rings through but I ignore it.

Since I can't see outside anymore but my other senses… no, I use my Quirk to sense what is going out outside. The Nomu, due to having the same Quirk as me is just a mass of electricity that I can easily sense, and by the foot positioning that he leaves in the ground. My body can no longer keep up with my Quirk… so I will have to improvise and make my Quirk so strong that the weakness of my mortal body doesn't matter.

Fwish!!

Booom!

Booom!

I feel the arms of the iron sand suit get blasted off, and I even feel the heat of the electricity coming from the places. The suit's arms are almost instantly reformed. It isn't really a suit as I am standing still and only the suit is moving, I am controlling it using my Quirk and nothing more. In a way, the suit is like an outer shell, a metallic body that can keep up with my Quirk.

But while the Nomu blasted my armor's arms, he also didn't do so scotch-free. As he jumps back his body suddenly stumbles and he falls to his knees.

*cough*

He coughs out blood. "W -What?!!"

The Nomu is confused and shocked by this. 

But I don't give him any information on what is going on, there is no need for sc.u.m like him to know. I never give my enemies an advantage and… I despise people stronger and better than me. This Nomu fits all the bills, even his Quirk has more raw power behind it, I absolutely hate it!!

*cough* *cough* *cough* The Nomu continues coughing copious amounts of blood with each cough. He collapses to the ground and dies.

His cause of death… iron sand poisoning, small grains of iron sand have been entering his body ever since the fight has started. Slowly his internal organs were infiltrated and so was his brain.

Regeneration might sound cool and strong, something unbeatable without strong firepower. But that is all wrong, the easiest way to take out a super-regenerative opponent is from the inside. Because by now, the heart, lungs, brain, and every other organ of the Nomu has been infiltrated by iron sand.

One simple command from me, at thought speed and the Nomu, will be killed almost instantly, without even being able to put up a resistance.

I would like to keep a pet like it around, but sadly it is too dangerous. Because unlike my previous clone, which I know I can easily best even at his strongest. This one is different.

So with one clench of my hand. 

*burst*

Iron spikes explode out of the Nomu's body, and they slowly rotate like a jigsaw, completely turning the creature's body into mush.

I don't smile or do anything at this. Only looking at the chunks of flesh contemplatively. I know just how close I came to death today. I came unbelievably close to it. One wrong move and I would have died, the Nomu was able to do something that I have never really experienced before. I was overwhelmed in a straight-out fight. Speed, power, regeneration, he was better than me at almost everything.

But only a stupid man fights in a straight battle. My Quirk's best quality isn't its speed or power… it's just how lethal it can be in my hands. No matter the enemy, unless it's me, no one will be able to survive my iron sand poisoning. I have long since abandoned the thought of growing my Quirk more in raw storage power or such by just training, it is inefficient any longer. 

In the end, the answer is control and electricity regeneration. These are the two factors that are needed for me. The control has already reached phenomenal levels as I have seen today, I can do over a dozen things at once with my Quirk and I wouldn't feel the burden. 

But still!! I must continue to become stronger, today was a wake-up call!! The Nomu made me come so close to death and realize, that my Quirk just doesn't feel lethal enough...

....

A/N: How do you fight someone who vlearly bests you in speed, power and endurance... well simply have to use trickery and be lethal against them. Also... the MC is finally showing a part of his real d.e.s.i.r.es as he gatheres the Nomu parts. He has usually been quiet in this, as we don't see him expressing such thinks outwardly or even internally too much. But there is more to him than just simply becoming a Legend and the fame and money that comes with becoming a Hero.😉
