I Quit Being a Hero
Chapter 12
Green Valley's stomach was hurting for a long time.
His classmate, who didn't play by the rules, actually forfeited after using unconventional means to win the competition?
Well, he really wanted to take Anzawa's forfeiture as "self-awareness" and "self-reflection", but when he saw Anzawa's indifferent expression, he really had the urge to kneel down in front of Anzawa!
Yes, during the sports festival, Anzawa's forfeiture forced Green Valley, who was in second place, to be promoted to first place. Moreover, he had a huge score of 10 million on his back and became the existence that everyone chased after … At that time, Green Valley really wanted to cry, and then he really did cry? _?
"Uh, why do you keep staring at me?" Anzawa stopped packing his bag and pinched the space between his eyebrows with his fingers.
Faced with Green Valley's accusatory gaze, he felt a lot of pressure. "School's already over. Green Valley, don't you want to go home?"
"…" Green Valley was silent. Obviously, he didn't know how to answer Anzawa's question.
He shrunk his neck slightly and mustered up the courage to say, "Um, Tian, Amagi, yesterday … why did you forfeit?"
"Is that why you've been staring at me?" An Ze sighed with a smile. "What other reason could there be?
It's just because I didn't deserve to be first place. Rather than shamelessly staying in the competition, I might as well forfeit and leave the first place to someone who can match up to me. "
"But …" Green Valley still had doubts. "If you really thought that you didn't deserve to be first place, Amagi classmate wouldn't have used that method from the beginning, right?"
Anzawa was sincerely impressed by Green Valley's ability to hit the nail on the head. "Okay, that was a lie. The real reason was that I didn't plan to participate in the sports festival from the beginning."
"Why?" Green Valley didn't understand.
Everyone in Class A and the other classes were looking forward to the sports festival. Why didn't they want to participate in the Sky City High School Reunion?
"You ask too many questions."
Anzawa didn't answer. He picked up his bag and patted Green Valley's shoulder. "Green Valley is an analytical and sensitive person. I don't find you annoying. I just want to remind you of one thing …"
Green Valley suddenly felt tense. The shoulder that was patted by Anzawa became very hot in an instant, as if there was a flame that wanted to burn him …
"People like you …" Anzawa leaned over and placed his lips beside Green Valley's ear. His lips curled into a faint smile. "It's easy for you to become the center of the storm and suffer too much damage."
"So, maybe it's not bad to be a little stupid and muddle-headed." Anzawa straightened up and looked at him with a smile. "What do you think?"
Green Valley's back was covered in cold sweat. His body trembled slightly.
When Anzawa smiled at him, he felt as if his heart was being peeked into by something terrifying. There was also a sudden and fleeting feeling of trembling …
"Ah!"
Green Valley opened his eyes wide and stepped back. He looked at Anzawa with a strange look as if they were meeting for the first time.
"Ha, it seems that I scared you. But what I said just now was a sincere reminder."
Anzawa smiled and his eyes narrowed. The curve of his lips stopped at a gentle position. "Good luck to the workplace experience, deku ~"
Anzawa had already walked away. Green Valley was still stunned by the terrifying feeling just now.
Why …?
Why?
Why? Why?
Amagi's aura just now … It was as if all the malice in the world was condensed. It was so cold that he couldn't help but stop breathing … Why?
Amagi always gave people a warm impression. Why was the malice aura so strong?
"Ha!
Young Green Valley!
I'm here in a unique posture!
Come with me quickly … "Ormet's voice became softer and softer. He looked at Green Valley's back, who was trembling slightly. He looked at him suspiciously and walked forward step by step." Hey, young Green Valley, what's wrong with you? "

In the school, Anzawa saw the man named Yuya Fujiwara. He stopped and looked at him with eyes that hid all his emotions.
Yuya Fujiwara didn't appear in Class A today. Instead, he went to Class B to replace the teacher in charge of Class B, Brad King, who was on leave for three days.
This was something that Ōta Aizawa told Anzawa voluntarily for some reason.
What a headache …
Yuya Fujiwara held a book and was surrounded by several girls who asked him all kinds of questions. Out of tolerance for women, even if he was distressed, he still maintained his gentlemanly principles and smiled as he answered the girls' questions one after another.
"Hmm?"
Yuya Fujiwara felt a gaze on him. He looked over and saw that it was Anzawa. His brown eyes instantly became gentle. He smiled at Anzawa to express goodwill, but unfortunately, he only received a cold look in return.
Yuya Fujiwara was stunned and then smiled bitterly.
It seemed that Anzawa's impression of him was very bad. Sure enough, it was his first meeting with Anzawa. Was he too rash?
Ah … If only [Reborn] was here, or even [World I] was here.
Fujiwara, who was hated by the younger generation (?)
G) Harada (Tian) Yuu (Kozuna) also (Ji), he thought sadly.
But …
Yuya Fujiwara suddenly frowned. Although he was in a state of deep sleep, he could clearly feel the existence of the World I's consciousness in Penglie's ring. But … perhaps it was strange, his consciousness didn't seem to exist in Penglie's ring. Anzawa was clearly the leader of the 16th generation …
"Why is Fujiwara sensei in a daze?" The girls asked curiously.
"No, nothing." Yuya Fujiwara smiled gently. "I'll chat with everyone when I have time. I have to go first."
"Hey!
We still have a lot of questions to ask Fujiwara sensei … Emmmm, you have to keep your promise. You have to chat with us when you have time. "
"Okay, it's a promise."
Yuya Fujiwara watched the girls leave. He walked towards Anzawa, but he stopped when he saw the boy beside Anzawa.
Forget it, he wouldn't disturb Anzawa's daily life for now. Although … one day, ordinary daily life would leave Anzawa behind.
Thinking about the results of the investigation, Yuya Fujiwara's expression couldn't help but darken.
You can't protect Anzawa, but I can.
This is enough for us to reach a consensus.
Just like you, I hope that my descendants can safely live through the thorny life in the future. Can you … trust me?
These were the words he said to Shuhei Amagi. Every word came from his heart. But the more he thought about it, the more he doubted himself. Could he really protect Anzawa?
If it was really as the results of the investigation showed, Anzawa had embarked on a path full of thorns, darkness, and self-destruction. Could he … really guide Anzawa back in the right direction?
"Do you hate the new teacher?"
"Hate?"
Looking at the tall figure walking away, Anzawa sneered, "No, I hate him."
The feeling of wanting that person to disappear from the world?
Why?
Anzawa didn't seem like someone who would invest too much emotion in someone.
Anzawa's strong sense of dissonance made Hong frown. After a while, he relaxed. "Well … you received the recruitment application from my dad's hero firm, right?"
"Ah, ANDVA HERO, right?" Anzawa retracted his gaze and walked forward. "Why?"
"I received it too. I've decided to go to my dad's hero firm to experience the workplace." Hong followed Anzawa and glanced sideways at him. "Will … you go?"
"Yes," Anzawa replied. "After all, only ANDVA HERO gave me a recruitment application."
If he hadn't abstained from the sports festival, there wouldn't have only been one recruitment application.
Hong thought silently in his heart. Then, he relaxed and revealed a small smile. "Ah, then we can go together."
"…" Anzawa was silent.
He suddenly felt agitated when he got close to Hong. He didn't know why, but he knew that he had used all his strength to suppress this agitation so that he wouldn't say anything hurtful to Hong.
It seemed … it seemed that after Yuya Fujiwara appeared, his emotions became a little out of control.
Anzawa frowned and closed his eyes. He wanted to distance himself from Hong after the sports festival, but he didn't want to hurt her.

Two days later, everyone in Class A gathered at the subway station.
"Everyone has put on your combat suit, right?"
Xiangze Xiaotai glanced at everyone with his bloodshot eyes. "You're not supposed to wear your combat suits in public. This is a rare opportunity, so don't lose your combat suits." (Note: Take it as a joke)
"Hey —!"
"Don't drag your words, just answer 'yes' with a normal tone, Ashio."
This was probably a rare energetic sentence from Ōta Aizawa. Unfortunately, it was a fleeting moment, and he returned to his lazy tone. "You must pay attention to be polite to the heroes in the experience ground.
All right, let's go. "(Note: as words)
"Hey."

Anzawa guessed that Ōta Aizawa's current mental activity must be: It's great that I don't have to see this group of brats for a week.
After the routine complaining, Anzawa turned his head and was about to tell Hong that they could go, but he saw that Hong's attention was on Iida, Green Valley, and Liri, so he swallowed his words.
"Amagi."
"Hmm?"
Anzawa blinked and walked to Ōta Aizawa. He didn't understand why he was called. "What's the matter?
Aizawa -sensei. "
"On the day of the sports festival, didn't I tell you that you weren't calm?" Ōta Aizawa narrowed his eyes. "Listen, no matter what, control yourself."
Anzawa was silent for a moment, and then he smiled. "… Is Aizawa -sensei concerned about me?
I'm flattered. "
"You're not the kind of person who gets too emotional because of someone or something. I've known this since the day of the entrance exam."
Ōta Aizawa ignored Anzawa's usual smile. "But ever since the name 'Yuya Fujiwara' appeared, you've been in a very strange state.
From a personal point of view, I don't want to express any opinions, but as a teacher, I have to warn you to control your emotions. "
Anzawa furrowed his eyebrows. Even if Ōta Aizawa didn't say it, he knew this clearly. Just like that day when he showed his hostility to Green Valley, he clearly understood how terrible his recent state was.
"Phew — Aizawa -sensei …" Anzawa's voice was tired and hoarse, but in contrast, he had an absolutely rational smile on his face. "Please don't worry."
