A Bitter Taste on a Sweet Tongue | My Hero Academia x Male OC

Utsuro Kurose believes pain is something meant to be shared.

Why wouldn't he? Raised as a tool in a cult based on false salvation, Utsuro learned early that other people's misery could be swallowed down, shaped into power, and used again and again, no matter how it hollowed him out.

Then he escaped. And for the first time, someone offered him warmth without asking him to consume anything in return.

Now at U.A. High, Utsuro trains to become a hero. Not to take pain from others, but to create a world where no one ever needs to give it to him again.
