Bliss of a Cure |(Completed)

|27| The Coordinator

For once, you felt minutes like hours. The time Midoriya froze and walked closer to the bounds, it felt like that moment was like longer than it should be when in reality, it only happened in a few minutes.

It was such a relief when he fought off the command and swept it away with his will.

It was like a miracle.

His two fingers were injured, nose was bleeding and cheeks were kind of swollen...but despite that appearance, his face was very heroic for you.

For his victory to be announced by you was a real reward for Midoriya. Although it was just a bit of relief in your words, he understood how proud you were of him, how glad you were for his victory. Perhaps it was just exaggeration, perhaps it was just an over-reaction, but he couldn't help but feel so, now that his victory was confirmed by the voice of an angel.

By the voice of my angel.

My angel.

You smiled towards Midoriya and he smiled back, simple silent communication between the two of you that only that two of you could understand. The eye-to-eye contact simply lasted for a few seconds, but it held many emotions.

With your face falling back into your serious frown, you raised your hand and announced, "To the second battle!"

The robots were cleaning and so you were setting and recording up the facts to be gathered for the finals. You were also reporting back to the other coordinators of what was happening in the stadium.

Finally...

"The wait is over! Moving on...There they are!"

The second round...was for Todoroki. You swallowed as you eyed the white-red headed male walk in such a manner and stance that shows his cold and also a tad bit of downcast emotions... He almost looked like he's vexed of something...and that something might be related to Endeavor. You can't do anything but to watch, but after what Midoriya said to you, you couldn't help but think how their match would turn out especially with Midoriya's situation.

He's still not in control of the Quirk he holds now.

For now, all you can do was to be silent and observant. As much as you hate it, all you had to do was watch and judge the battles with fairness. As a coordinator, your weighs of judging must be fair.

"The cream of the crop! Yet this guy's somehow still as plain as they come! Sero Hanta of the Hero Course! Versus... The best of the best! The strongest of the strong! Todoroki Shoto, also of the Hero Course! Start!"

Sero was quick as he attacked first, using his tape to secure Todoroki by wrapping him with it. Then he used this to move Todoroki towards the borderline.

"He's trying to push him out with a surprise attack! It's probably the best strategy for him! Sero's giving his all!"

Then Todoroki mumbled something before huge thick ice—no, not ice...it was glacier to be exact—that sprouted towards Sero and upwards, the tip of the ice was astonishingly exceeding the roof of the stadium. With a slight jump, you tried to evade the ice that was crawling towards you without going out of the platform but it still reached you. You inhaled sharply as the frost surrounded your right foot up to your waist, making you shiver in coldness.

Your teeth chattered as you tried to move, but it was no avail.

What the fuck just fucking happened.

"Sero...A-Are you okay? Can you still move?"

"Sensei...Are you kidding me...? Ow, ow, ow."

You lifted up your free hand, still struggling of the ice that surrounded you. "Sero is immobilized!"
