Izuku looked at the dead man and sighed. If it was someone unrelated he wouldn't really care as much. True, he would definitely like to know what happened to the man, and he would call police. But once he thought about how would Itsu react, he felt like eating shit. "Damn it all to hell." Izuku angrily kicked a chunk of what appeared to be a wall.

"I need to visit Itsuka immediately to tell her what happened, but what do I do about the body? Do I just leave it here? Should I bring it with me?"

So many questions and I am left with no answers.

"I should probably call All Might to see what the situation is."

Izuku pulled out his phone from his inventory and called All Might.

A few rings later, he picked up, "What is it young Midoriya? I am quite busy"

"Ah.. I am sorry if you are busy, but I've somehow stumbled upon this destroyed place and I've found a dead man most likely a hero. I think that there was some kind of mayor battle here. I am not quite sure what to do."

"All Might? Are you there?" All Might was silent so Izuku thought that the call was interrupted.

"I am here young Midoriya.. He is actually one of my friends. I am on my way to his family. I need to relay the bad news. If you can.. Please carry him here. I am in my frail form and I definitely can't carry a grown adult. Especially since he is dead and can't control his body weight. If you can't, then leave him here, I have already called heroes to check whether someone was still injured under all that rubble." replied All Might.

"Your friend? He is the father of one of my best friends.. That's why I am concerned."Izuku sighed.

"I see. What a coincidence. Well. How about this, I will wait for you in front of their house and we will relay the message to them together. You will take care of the daughter and I will try to calm down the wife.." saying that, Izuku agreed and All Might disconnected from the call.

"Ah, I forgot to tell him about Leo."

Meanwhile, Izuku got to work, he looked at the man's body. Both his legs and his arm was completely gone and his face was partly destroyed. Such a shame. As Izuku observed his body, he quickly found out that a part of his stomach was being crushed under a massive stone pillar.

He tried lifting it up but it didn't move an inch.

"That's impossible, this weights more than a ton!"

What to do now. Do I cut off his torso and leave the rest of him under the pillar? No.. That would be too tiring and cruel. Especially since it is a hero and moreover, Itsuka might die of a shock once she sees him in that state. No need to make it more bloody for her.

Whenever he imagined her sad face his chest tightened.

Izuku shook his head and tried to think of way to get him out of the pillar while not making it all bloody at the same time.

Should I try my second quirk? It might help so why not.

"Yūrei, come out!"

Darkness enveloped around Izuku as a giant vortex of black particles transformed into a two meters tall humanoid body.

"Good, it works!"

I've been trying to call out this guy so many times and I've only managed to summon him once in like 20 tries.

"Lift that pillar!" Izuku said as he pointed on the dead man.

Ghost looked at the pillar and picked it up like it didn't even weight a kilo.

"Good, now throw it away!"

Once again, the Ghost did what was told, and he effortlessly threw the pillar away.

'Tch what a show-off. This guy's strength is insane, if only I could learn how to control him properly.'

Izuku threw the idea away as there was plenty enough of time for him to master his quirk. Right now, he still had an errand.

Izuku got closer to the corpse as he thought about how he should carry it.

He picked it up in a princess carry, but it just felt uncomfortable. It was like taking a bride to a new house. Except that it was a dead person.

After that, he tried to place one of its remaining arms around his neck while holding it. Both of its legs were gone, so he wouldn't need to carry so much, but It still felt uncomfortable.

Finally, After 4 more different positions, he finally remembered that he could just use his quirk.

He touched the corpse and it immediately disappeared into his pocket dimension.

"So much for the IQ. I am so dumb."

***************************************************

All Might was patiently waiting for his ready to be protégé. He believed that he picked the right boy. His bright personality and the goal of wanting to be a hero is the ideal candidate in his opinion.

Moreover, he got recommendations from the principal and his quirk could be used in so many ways he can't even count them.

All Might had always wanted to be a teacher to someone. He loved grooming the young generation.

He tried not to move as much so that he could conserve as much energy as possible to overextend his time limit.

He waited for a few minutes before he saw the boy. You could spot him everywhere since he really stands out. He is not tall nor is he equipped with giant muscles. His only redeeming feature was his green and messy hair.

'Oh, it looks like he wasn't able to bring Inferno's corpse with him."

Izuku spotted All Might's frail figure and he dragged himself to him like a lost puppy."Hello All Might. I am sorry for your loss." Izuku sighed.

"Yeah.. It must be hard for you too.. So, do you have a plan? I would require help since I am not too good at calming people down. I feel like I might break down crying any minute now."

"I am not sure what to do myself, but I think that you are worrying too much. Let's just endure it somehow." Izuku said as he opened up his pocket dimension and pulled out Inferno's corpse.

"I forgot you can do that. I thought that you weren't able to retrieve it." said All Might.

"I've had some problems with it, and I certainly couldn't carry it, but after using my brain properly, I managed to solve the problem."

"Good, give him to me young Midoriya."

All Might transformed into his hero form and picked up his friend's corpse in a princess carry.

'He did the exact thing I did before..' thought Izuku.

But... It's really a miracle I made it here. I got lost a few times along the way, and I had to ask some people for directions. Itsuka only told me her adress like a year ago, I never visited her place though. I was about to turn the wrong way, but luckily I saw All Might and I am glad that my suffering is over. Well, at least a part of it.
