The Epic of Leviathan (A Mutant's Ascension)

Chapter 23 - Hero Names



A/N: I did some thinking before writing the previous chapter and I found out that even if Nejire would have won against Nemuri in the vote I would have still tried to get her in the harem, so that's why I decided to put Nemuri in the harem and be done with it.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------- ​​

"I blame you... you beast!" Momo said while glaring at me. I just rubbed the back of my neck and chuckled sheepishly.

Both of us were back to school now that the short break after the Sports Festival is over. And the reason of Momo being angry at me is because she is walking funny, while she was also pouting.

"Even after when you had your wicked ways with me, I still wasn't able to satisfy you" Momo said while she kept her glare and pout at the same time on her face.

"I am sorry... but you were the one who kept me asking for more and more!" I retoreded while chuckling. Neither of us were actually angry at each other.

"Yes... that was my mistake... but you have to get another girl or I will die..." Momo whined while clutching my arm like a koala.

It would really funny... but I don't want her to die. And I truly don't know what to think about this 'get another girl' thing. Honestly, I want a harem for myself, I truly do. A lot of men also dream of getting a harem, I don't know about getting another girl but I want a woman 'Nemuri Kayama' to be exact and I don't know how to get her. It's not like I can just go to her directly and ask her to join my harem or even ask her to date since she is a teacher here.

When both of us woke up in the morning after our last night workout, I really felt guilty. Momo wasn't even able to walk staright when she woke up. I gave her a massage (seriously, nothing naughty), helped her in the shower then left her. According to Momo her mom had been giving her knowing smile which was really embarrassing for her. So yeah, from next time when we sleep together I will stop only after 3 or 4 times. I don't even know how the hell I am getting so much stamina, it must be something related to my power.

I was brought out of my thoughts when Momo opened the door of our class. I met with a similar sight, we were pretty early so not many students were here. I went up Ilda and started chatting, I saw the news about Ilda's brother so I asked him about that. He seemed pretty uneasy so I just changed the topic before wishing him well. Soon, the class began flooding with the students, while I was chatting with Eijirou until a voice called me from behind.

"Reo..." I turned around and saw Shoto Todoroki. Everyone in the class became quiet in an instant. No one wanted to miss anything about the confrontation between Itauki Reo the ruler of metal (unofficial given name because of Midnight) and Shoto Todoroki (Midnight gave him a name too but it didn't stick).

"I finally resolved my own problem which didn't let me use my left time to it's fullest, so I hope we can have a battle once again another day. I recognize you as the strongest in this class, so I am aiming to surpass you." Todoroki said and extended his hand towards me. Well, looks like his he got his shit together.

I repeated his gesture and shook his hand. "I will be looking forward to that fight, then both of us can go all out." I told him with a charismatic smile on my face.

"I will too" Todoroki said and went back to his seat.

I noticed a purple faced Bakugo was glaring murder at me. Honestly I don't care what he felt after being humiliated by me to that extent and honestly I don't care. Even if he turns out to be a villian than I would happily take off, maybe two of his limbs and throw him into prison after that. Do I feel guilty for doing this to someone? No... not even in the slighest. At the beginning I kept avoiding him but then again he kept pushing me... well yeah I snapped.

"Good morning class. Get into your seats." A familiar bored voice sounded out, causing everyone to sit down and everyone responded back to his greeting.

"Today we will be doing something different for class. Code Names. You will be picking out your hero names." Aizawa revealed, causing the class to get excited at not having to do something boring.

After that he had to calm down the class, Momo looked pretty excited too.

"Hero names? Why are we picking out our hero names so early?" even if Momo was herself excited, she still asked. After all, she was our class president.

After that, he went on to explain the purpose and reason on why they would be doing it today, as well as revealing the number of nominations the students had.

I noticed that Momo had way more than she did in canon. The only reason for this could be that she didn't lose in the first round and even won in the 2nd round. It made her name quite famous, since she showed off her powers.

Bakugo was in the third, with Todoroki in the second. Of course, I was way ahead of them in the lead for first, getting an insane amount, which didn't surprise me. None of my classmates called ot unfair because all of them knew my power and what could I do with that.

"Now with these, you will be going into internships with the pro heroes." Aizawa announced.

"Internship?" Izuku curiously questioned out loud.

"Yes, you will be receiving the training that will help you guys to improve your abilities as well as teaching you guys how to combat villians and see the pro heroes at work. Thankfully the USJ incident didn't escalate to anything worse..." he turned his eyes towards me. The students also followed the direction he is looking. Aizawa looked at me almost grateful and then continued again "...but if a situation like that ever happens again, then you will need to know how to defend yourself."

"So today, we will be picking out your hero names, but they are temporary for now. And if you are not serious about them, then you will have to-" Aizawa was speaking, but was interrupted when a certain R-Rated suddenly barged into the classroom.

"Then you will have to pay!" Midnight said as she seductively walked inside and went to stand beside Aizawa.

"Midnight!" The students called out in surprise. Wow... no matter how many times I see her, she is still so gorgeous and beautiful. I felt someone grab my hand and I immediately froze. I robotically turned my head towards Momo because I knew very well that it was Momo's hand. I looked at her and she was giving me a disapproving look.

"I don't know what you see in her but if she is your choice then I am fine with it" Momo said to in low whisper. As she spoke her disapproving look turned into an approving smile.

After that she let me go, but not before she squeezed my hand slightly to show her support. Both of us then immediately turned towards Aizawa and Midnight.

"Because a lot of hero names used by students become recognized by society, then you will have to make sure to be serious about this and that it is appropriate." Midnight finished and licked her lips while winking. Our homeroom teacher, Aizawa just sighed at her antics.

Midnight than started to scan the class when finally her eyes laid on me and she again licked her lips seductively. From what I have seen previously, she is definitely interested in me. Even of not romantically, she is definitely much more interested in me than my classmates if I consider all her signals.

"Yes, Midnight will be making sure your names are okay." Aizawa said to the students who were already thinking of good hero names for themselves. All of the students were then handed a whiteboard and marker so that they could workout their hero names more efficiently. During the whole time I noticed Midnight was looking at me. She only removed her eyes from me a few times.

I already knew what name I wanted for myself. There could be no other names for this particular Quirk or power I have.

As the time passed by, I watched how the students walked up to the front to announce their names. Momo went with her canon name 'Everything Hero: Creati' and Izuku came up with 'Deku'. Midnight asked him with concern if he was fine with it or not. He just told her he was sure that he wanted this name so Midnight accepted the name. She could only help but she can't choose a name for someone.

I would never understand why Izuku would take up the name which his bullies used to tease him. Maybe Bakugo left a huge impression on his mind or he secretly have an M fetish... ugh... I berated my own brain for thinking that.

"Itsuki Reo, it's your turn." Midnight called me to the front. She looked like she was waiting to hear the name I had thought of. I calmly walked up to the front of the class and held up my whiteboard.

"The hero name I pick is 'Magneto'. I announced to the whole class. After I announced my name, the all the students immediately nodded in understanding. I don't even want to know why would they do that. Midnight also looked very happy, she seemed to approve my name completely...
