Speaking: "..."

Thinking: '...'

" Now I do believe that we all came here to discuss something don't we" Asahi said smiling with his eyes closed. All adults except Masaru of course were now looking at the boys anticipatingly.

The first one to speak was detective Tsukauchi standing up he then asked " let's start with the question every one of the adults in this room has. Where have the both of you been for the past two months?"

Looking at the older people in the room Izuku thought ' Well I don't think we should or even could hide the abilities of my quirk. So I guess we have no choice' and then stating out loud

" The floating castle in the sky, Aincrad" in fully serious tone.

" Izuku, sweetheart please you don't have to hide the truth detective Tsukauchi has a lie detector quirk" Inko stated a little disappointed at her son.

"Well yes I have a lie detector quirk but that doesn't change the fact that he just told the truth" Naomasa replied also looking perplexed at the answer Izuku had given him.

Now even more confused Inko wanted to ask her son more about that but was beat to the punch by Asahi asking " Ohh that sounds interesting please do elaborate a bit more on that matter, is it perhaps an aspect of your quirk I'm dying to hear more" his eyes finally opened with child like excitement and a clipboard in hand ready to write down anything interesting.

Backing away from the man a bit Izuku was a bit surprised because of the sudden mood change in the man. Looking at Katsuki next to him both nodding he straightened himself up before explaining " Well I don't exactly know what my quirk is ,what I do know is that it's main ability is sending me and people who touch me to a different world that world is Aincrad. A world of no quirks instead there is sword skills magic and probably some more stuff".

" Highly interesting, please go ahead continue" Asahi again said with that child like motivation.

Following was half an hour of detailed explanations from Izuku with the other boy butting in a few times adding his experiences. Izuku and Asahi eventually hitting it off after an awkward start and just got deeper and deeper into their "talk" with Katsuki retreating after a while grabbing his handheld console and playing.

"Fascinating truly fascinating, a quirk of this magnitude directly in front of me. Now before you said something about taking your inventory, menu and stats back from Aincrad correct? While I've witnessed the stat part I'd also like to see this fabled menu" Asahi said anticipatingly.

" Well hate to disappoint you but that's not possible right now because you see both Kaachan and I technically died in there so we are currently locked out of Aincrad for the next six months and I also am not permitted to open the menu right now for the time being. Here I'll show you" Izuku said in a regretful tone then taking his hand he waved it downwards only for the same message he had gotten before to pop up.

" Oh I see so there even exists a punishment system within your quirk. Then I have one last question you said you and the other boy had fought monster in there. But looking at both of you right now and how both of you seemingly are not used to your body's did you perhaps have different ones in there?" Asahi asked curiosity taking over.

" Did I forget that part yes we did,they're called Avatars and they are basically teen versions of us that we could customize at the time we entered. Like Kaachan for instance made his hair silver" Izuku said pointing at his friend.

" Hey let me out of your discussion and let me remind you about who made his face sharper to look cool" Katsuki interrupted saying the last part a bit sarcastically.

Then to everyone's surprise Mitsuki interjected „ So is that also why both of you seem like you're no longer four year old kids, can talk like teenagers and use our kitchen devices" genuinely seeming interested to hear their answer.

„ I don't know I mean I realize that we no longer behaveing like a four year old would but besides the things we learned in Aincrad we don't really know much more than basic knowledge, simple math from managing our finances and battle sense" The green haired boy stated pondering at his own discovery.

„ Well if you'd like I could conduct brain scans on both of you to see what's going on in there if it's ok with you?" the mostly white haired man suggested happily.

„ I'm down let's do it Izuku" Katsuki said getting up from the chair he was sitting on.

„ Alright let's do it Kaachan" Izuku stated motivatedly.

But before they could leave the room to conduct the scan Inko stopped them „ Hold on don't we as parents get to say anything about this?" the green haired woman said looking a bit worried.

Asahi then turned around to face her and took her left had with both his and said „Mrs Midoriya I can assure you that this procedure is not only risk free but would also benefit us all for exactly understanding what your son's quirk is capable of" in a reassuring tone of voice and a genuine smile on his face looking deep into her emerald eyes.

Not being able to hold eye contact with the man she looked around the room nervously saying „ Ah... Ah Mitsuki what about you don't you have something to say.

„ No if anything I'm curious to hear about my child's mental state and if I'll have to raise a child or a teenager from now on" the other woman said crossing her arms.

Letting up Inko then finally said „ Alright I suppose it would be good to know for the future please go ahead Mr Daigo" with the orange eyed man letting go of her hand before bowing respectfully and then leaving with the two boys.

After the results are ready in the office

„ Alright everyone listen up I just got the results from the two scans" Asahi stated holding up two pieces of paper and getting everyone's attention.

Mitsuki then having her arms crossed asked the phoenix man „ So what's going on in their heads?"

„Well for once the region of the brain wich is in charge of processing and storing information have been massively aged beyond what's normal and if you look at it compared to a 16 year old's it's almost the same if not better developed. What's more the part of the brain wich handles pain tolerance and the one handling reflexes have also been.... How do I say this, mutated. Which probably explains why both were able to fight monsters and handle being half dead while still standing. Truly looking at it one would assume they were students in a hero academy's second or even third year" Asahi stated with a stern face.

„ So does that mean they're teenagers already?" Inko asked a bit scared to hear his answer.

„ Well no not in the conventional sense it's more like they have the potential to become one faster than any other child. You see while they have the learning ability, memory capacity and rationality of a teen they in the prospect of accumulated experience and knowledge they only have the experience of the last two months in Aincrad"

„ So basically they're teenagers with the experience and body of a four year old with unusual fighting talent,right"

Mitsuki summed up having her arms crossed sitting next to a still unconscious Masaru.

„ Yes that is essentially correct" the experienced doctor explained to the other people in the room.

„ Haha yess now I no longer have to deal with an unresponsible child I'll drill responsibility into that brat as soon as we get home" Mitsuki exclaimed enthusiastically.

„Aren't you sad that we'll miss out on their childhood?" Inko asked her best friend.

„ Well we did have their baby years and also if I understood correctly we're still gonna witness their childhood just not years of it, at least somewhat. Plus from what I picked up on the conversation before they can't go back to Aincrad currently so we'll have all the time we can with them" The ash blonde woman explained with a smile.

„ Huh I didn't think of it that way but I guess you're right. Let's watch them the next six months closely!" the green haired woman concluded with the second part being very enthusiastic. But then she seemed to stop a thought having crossed her mind.

„ So what are we going to do about their education we can't very well let them go back to kindergarten?" inko questioned the room.

„ You're that wouldn't bring them anywhere"

Mitsuki pointed out pondering.

„ If I may suggest something, I could teach them about the things they would learn in school and look after them in their normal kindergarten hours until they are responsible enough, since I have all the required documents to teach them" Asahi stated having Izuku on his side looking at him with bright eyes.

„ Really you would do that can you also teach me about all the quirk science you know?" The green haired boy inquired excitedly with stars in his eyes.

„ Of course Izuku I would be glad to teach you my knowledge while I probably don't need a successor I do se a lot of potential and a younger version of me in you" the orange eyed man said patting the boys head.

„ You can count me in less time in school equals more time in Aincrad I'm down" Katsuki said giving of tiny explosions from his palm.

„ Are you sure that's not to much for you I mean we don't want to impose on your work" Inko questioned the man.

„ Yes I'll be more than fine my life is not as interesting and busy as everyone thinks" the phoenix man answered smiling genuinely while looking at Izuku.

Having sorted out that question Tsukauchi took the word for once „ Good now that this matter is settled I think there is one more thing I'd like to say before we close this meeting. That is I think it would be best if we kept the part of Izuku's quirk that lets him and others travel to Aincrad a secret as to not endanger him and everyone else in this room".

„ Yes that would make sense, I'll see to it that the reports say nothing about that part of his quirk and since it's from me the government will easily believe it" the orange eyed man reassured them.

„ Just so everyone knows I'm going to make clear what I want from all of you. No one besides the people in this room, including Masaru, are allowed to know about Aincrad, if anyone asks Izuku about his quirk the answer will be that he has a gaming system quirk with an inventory and magic, if you ever get it that is, and the name will be..." But before Naomasa could finish both boys confidently as if practiced exclaimed:

„Sword Art Online"
