Reborn As Saitama In MHA

Chapter 54 - The next day

At the end of the night, Hiroto went back to his hotel room after saying his farewell to Melissa. The both of them were going to see each other again the next day since All Might was going to come in and meet her dad.

Having gotten her number, Hiroto put his phone away and entered his hotel suite. What he saw left him in awe at just the sheer size of it all. The first place he entered was the living room, which was bigger than necessary if he was being honest.

'Well, I get to enjoy this place for a week before having to head back to Japan and getting ready for the training camp.' Hiroto thought, going to his bedroom, which was twice as large as his own back at home.

On the bed was his luggage, and after making sure that everything he brought with him was all accounted for, he started unpacking.

He fished out a number of manga's, a game console, his clothes, and an ȧssortment of 'emergency ramen'.

Satisfied, he was about to go take a bath when he got a call from Rumi.

"Hello?"

[Hiroto! I'll be flying in at around lunch tomorrow, so make sure to come and pick me up! I'll be in my hero suit after landing for a short photoshoot for the Island, you can't miss me!]

"It's not like I can miss you anyway, you do stand out."

[Haha, you bet I do! So, how did your day go? How much did you break?]

"Hey now, I didn't break… that much?"

[Of course, you didn't]

[Then why are you so surprised? Nevermind about that, how's the island? Does it live up to the hype? Anything to fight over there?!]

After a short laugh because of her enthusiasm, Hiroto began to recount his day after walking to the outside balcony and watching over the night city.

Before she hung up, Hiroto said, "Oh, I won't be able to be with you that much tomorrow since my class along with Aizawa-sensei and All Might is coming over as well. I'll need to meet up with them and probably do some more stuff here and there."

[Ah, that's fine. I was going to meet up with Aizawa tomorrow anyway about a… job.]

"Mhm, your job that definitely doesn't have anything to do with the school?"

[... don't be a smartass.]

"No can do. Oh, do you have anything formal by the way? There's some sort of reception party tomorrow night, but I think you've already been told about it?"

[Yup! I hate formal events though, it's all so boring, there's nothing to do. Well, since you're going I might as well too, at least it won't be too boring. It's getting late, I'm heading to bed, Night.]

With that, she hung up the phone and Hiroto shrugged to himself, heading to take a bath.

At the Shield household, late at night, David Shield just returned home after a long day at work. Within the living room, he noticed that the light was still on and went in with a smile.

"Melissa?" David asked after coming around the corner to see Melissa engrossed in her research project.

"Papa!" Putting away her ŀȧptop, she flung herself at her father to go in for a hug.

Laughing exasperatedly, David put her down and asked, "What are you still doing up so late? You should be in bed by now."

"Well, I was just going over a few things from my research project from school." Melissa then went back to the sofa in and closed it, hiding the email she sent to All Might about the details of his flight and arrangements to I-Island.

David gave a wry smile, "Well, I myself, am tired. So I'll be heading to take a bath before turning in, I expect you to be in bed by the time I'm finished."

"Alright, papa, don't worry!" Melissa then turned around to head back into her room.

David watched her walk away with a smile before sighing and sitting on the sofa with a tired expression. Taking out his phone, he opened a picture of All Might in his younger days when the both of them were still in the states. (America)

Looking over it with a conflicted and worried expression, he went deep into thought for a moment, before closing it and heading off to take a bath, not before thinking, 'Didn't Melissa say she was meeting someone today? Oh well, I can just ask her about that tomorrow.'

Back in the hotel room, just before Hiroto was about to sleep, he made a discovery that changed his world view.

"You can have holographic manga?!" In front of him was a holographic display which was still in it's testing phases, but for the hotel suites, they were able to utilize them as testers themselves.

Nevermind that, the important thing was Hiroto was staring at the blue lighting that surrounded his bedroom and lining the wall was holographic shelves lined with thousands of virtual mangas.

Looking at the time on his phone which displayed 11 pm, Hiroto muttered, "Who needs sleep? I have unparalleled access to any manga in creation, why shouldn't I capitalize on this chance."

His eyes narrowed, displaying his serious attitude as he took his shirt off, saying, "It's time to absorb everything that I can."

*beep beep beep*

He woke up.

------------

In the early morning of I-Island, Hiroto was having breakfast in the restaurant belonging to the hotel. He had a downcasted look on his face after having such a nice dream, only to be woken up to cruel reality.

The first few messages were from Aizawa, explaining and double-checking that everyone was ready and that they were going to meet at the airport by 11 am before departing. Their flight was planned to come in just after lunch, so they would either eat on the plane or on the island as a class.

Aizawa told Hiroto to meet up with them at the airport before they were going to land and to give him a general idea of the island once he lands.

"Rumi is going to be coming at around the same time, so I could have her meet with Aizawa when the class is having lunch," Hiroto muttered while taking a sip of his coffee.

Shortly after that, Hiroto also got a message from All Might, saying that he and Izuku aren't going to be coming in together, but that they would instead separate from the group and meet up with Hiroto. After that, they would be meeting Melissa's dad, All Might's old friend.

The student's int he group chat were all excited to be able to get to I-Island and began bombarding Hiroto was various questions and requests for photos.

Of course, Hiroto obliged, but most of the photos was just selfies of him doing dumb things, like eating ice cream that he sent to his parents when they were asking how he was.

"Mom and dad should be coming nearer to the evening, so I should have a free afternoon before I go and pick them up as well." Hiroto checked the messages from his parents, especially when his mom kept pestering him about how he was.

Finishing his breakfast, Hiroto leaned back in his chair while the waiters cleared up his table. 'What should I do for the morning? I'm still pretty free, but have no idea where to start…'

Hiroto then took out his phone and messaged Melissa, asking about what he should do to occupy his time. After a short while, she responded, saying that he could come and take a look at the academy that she's studying at and the support items she made.

'Does she not trust my sense of direction?' Hiroto thought as he walked around the hotel lobby, trying to find the restroom.

After 20 or so minutes, Melissa entered the hotel and sent a message to Hiroto to come meet her in the lounge.

Rounding the corner, Hiroto waved towards her, "Hey, let's get going."

Melissa smiled back, saying, "Yeah! I can't wait to show you where I'm studying as well as a certain research project of mine."

Hiroto nodded and the two left the hotel and proceeded to walk towards I-Island academy which was in a different city to the one they were in, located in the top right of the Island.

(Central Tower is in the middle, Below it is the airport and the welcoming area, top left is the pavilion and attraction, while top right is the academy.)

Although Hiroto could've worn some more casual clothes, he decided to just wear a spare Hero Suit, with the main one being washed, (hygiene) since his class would be coming today in their own suits as well.

"Did you do anything else last night?" Melissa asked him.

"Not really, I was pretty tired and wanted to get an early rest," Hiroto responded while looking at the various staff, tourists and residents going about their business for the day.
