The Ingenium Hero incident came to light, and after the Mahoraga incident, another one was added.
"INGENIUM: THE FIRST PROFESSIONAL HERO FALLEN AT THE HANDS OF STAIN!"
"NEW THREAT TO HEROES: STAIN, THE HERO KILLER"
The headlines on social media and TV were about the recent attack on INGENIUM, who is in serious condition.
In Class 1-A,
"No way! Are they talking about... Stain?" said Kaminari.
"Ahhh! That guy is terrifying! He paralyzes people just by licking their blood!" Mineta said as he hid behind his desk.
Everyone's gaze turned to Tenya Iida. His face, normally so expressive and rigid, had turned pale as marble.
"Iida-kun..." whispered Uraraka.
"Stain... and that creature... if there really is a connection, that makes them even more dangerous," Deku muttered, analyzing the situation.
"As you gossipmongers have heard, the Mahoraga incident has also brought up the name of Stain. It's true that the creature's ability to adapt to Quirks is terrifying, but remember, every Quirk has a limit. Stain neutralizes his victims, so I hope everyone stays out of it," Aizawa said.
He turned to the blackboard, writing the word "ADAPTATION" in chalk.
"The Ingenium case was a turning point. Stain paralyzed Tensei Iida. The Mahoraga creature knocked Death Arms unconscious by becoming immune. Both threats prove that brute force or a single Quirk are not enough. The world of heroes is changing. It's no longer just about being strong, but about being smart and, above all, adaptable," said Aizawa.
He looked at his students, pausing for a few seconds on Iida.
"This means that your training will not only focus on enhancing your Quirks, but also on understanding their limits, on teamwork, and on thinking outside the box. The new era doesn't just demand heroes, it demands heroes who can evolve as quickly as the threats," said Aizawa.
As Aizawa said this, Tenya Lida clenched his fists tightly with a sharp look on his face, thinking about STAIN.
As the class continued, Mahoraga also continued his tour of the city.
"Seriously, lately I'm bored a lot more than before. Fighting is much more fun," Mahoraga said as he sat on top of a building.
Alex was certainly unaware, but Mahoraga was slowly influencing him because his body only wanted to fight and adapt to the strongest.
Although, certainly, not having any needs was also very boring. He hoped that someone would find him so he could fight.
What he didn't know was that the hero base had already warned everyone about Mahoraga.
"If you encounter Mahoraga, do not confront him directly. His Quirk allows him to adapt when confronted, and we still do not know how long his adaptation takes or what his limits are. Report his location so we can try to neutralize him."
That was the message at all the hero agencies. The reactions were different, some fearful, some cautious, and others intrigued.
This new threat was different, and to make matters worse, STAIN had just appeared. It was a coincidence that one immobilized his enemies and the other adapted.
While this was happening, all the villains reacted differently to the news. Some thought they would be new accomplices or new allies. Everyone was waiting to see what the next news about STAIN or Mahoraga would be.
