Because that's what heroes do

---

You have completed the quest: Cleaner

Reward: +1 Level, +1 all stats, +100.000 Yen

Bonus Reward: Special Trait: Last Standing 

Last Standing

You remain standing among the bodies of your enemies because even when death comes knocking what pushes you is far more important.

Effect: When HP reaches 1, your SP will start being consumed instead, but at an accelerated rate, when SP reaches 0 you will immediately faint leaving your body unable to defend itself.

New achievement

You have pushed through one of the thresholds without using points

Bonus: +1 Trait point, Title Limit Breaker

Limit Breaker

For pushing beyond what is considered human-possible

Bonus: All stats will grow 10% faster from now on, and breaking through thresholds will become 50% easier.

For breaking your first threshold in Will and Int you have gained two new traits: Iron Mind, Information sponge

Iron Mind

You have steeled your mind to resist the dangers of the world

Effect: You can resist Mind-related attacks. 

Information Sponge

Your brain has already gotten used to a great amount of information all at the same time, so now you can process them faster than before.

Effect: Levelling a skill to level 10 becomes much easier and faster.

Hard Bones Lv.11=>15, Crushing Resistance Lv.20=>25, Physical Form Lv.15=>19, Focus Lv.35=>40

It had been just one point, one point difference from 49 to 50, but the whole world changed in my perspective, things that were to be understood before now came as natural as breathing, and the anxiety that I had for the UA exam was now only a mere wish to push myself even further, everything was a piece of a puzzle, every stat point was important, and they become even more important after breaking a threshold apparently, but leaves me with one incognita, would this type of thresholds unlock new traits that I could buy?

Answer? It did, a lot of new ones had suddenly appeared, some of them were useful or too focused on a singular subject, for example, there was a perk called Dancing Genius which would make the dancing skill grow 20% faster and others that made my mouth salivate in excitement, they were so good that I didn't think twice about using my three trait points.

Pink Muscles( Tear at least once every muscle in your body)

The perfect musculature for a fighter

Effect: Combat styles and all physical stats will grow 20% faster.

Imposing Presence(Will>=50)

For your will has already surpassed the normal human

Effect: You can impose your willpower on those with weaker than you to reduce their stats by 10%.

 Information Decoder ( Int >=50)

Your brain has become able to process new information much faster than before.

Effect: When studying any subject through books/ebooks the skills will grow 10% faster.

The effect of Pink muscles was immediate, I felt some of my muscles shift position or directly change their shape, making my body more toned, defined, slimmer and more reactive to every action I will it to do, and Imposing presence gave me a new kind of limb, something external that felt weird but somehow familiar, but not having anyone to use it on I left it where it was, the only one that didn't make me feel different was Information Decoder, most likely because I am not studying anything at the moment.

Smiling at what I was becoming I decided to get some sleep, and the one I had because I fainted didn't count.

3rd POV

"No," Toshinori said to someone in the room.

" You see Yagi, even though you say no, you can't exactly stop me, am I right?" A squeaky voice told Yagi, the voice belonging to what looked like the mix between a bear, a dog, and a mouse.

" You will not corrupt someone young like him, not until I am alive, it doesn't matter if you are my boss," Yagi told the bear.

" Even though me and he are always on the same page, I think he is right this time." A ragged man, looking more like a hobo than an actual teacher told the bear while standing on Yagi's side.

" I will revoke your privilege to expel students."

"... Nezu can do whatever he wants." 

" Is that seriously what it takes to make you change ideas?"

" When you work with teens with constantly shifting hormones you will understand."

" This is not the point, why do you even want him Nezu?"

" Aside from the fact that his body seemed to be the epitome of what can be achieved through training? His mind attracts me."

"His mind?"

" Yes, and I am not talking about how he is the first in his class, or even in the whole of Japan, but about how he was able to push his body to the point that he can't be looked at as quirkless anymore."

"But he is not quirkless." Yagi pointed out.

" A quirk that lets you store some weight can't explain what he has done to his body, and how much he has pushed himself, from the scars on his body I am quite sure that he has also practised martial arts, and from his literature exams his knowledge about our world is expanded enough to make him stand aside from those his age."

"... What if he gets hurt? Wasn't what happened to the beach enough?"

" And who are you to tell him what he can and can't do? He has lived his life hearing such words, being insulted for what he is-" Nezu's previously happy stare became serious, the mention of being insulted for what someone is, hitting too close to home.

" But he ignored those people, and became what he currently is, so yes Yagi, I will try to get him under my wing, and you can't do anything to stop me."
