Now that I think about it. The words that I said to Nana that she should be careful of All for One could destroy the plot in some cases.
Fate is a mysterious thing. If only one outside element comes into it, it could already get destroyed. It's too easy to change it.
Well, if she plays her cards well, maybe she can survive?
I can't be for sure, but who cares.
After that minor shop accident, I now know I should be some years away before the plot starts. The first thing I need to do is to get some money. Let's sell some gold and buy a small house near a forest. I don't want to meet too many people until the plot starts. It wouldn't be so good if someone recognizes me 37 years later.
A little later, I exchanged some gold for money. Usually, I would have to sign some documents and so on. Still, with a bit of manipulation, I could get my money without a problem. Of course, I left the shops I exchanged with some more gold as the value for the trouble. It's useless for me anyway, and I get it automatically from my universe.
Yeah, I was in more than one of these gold sales.
There would be no way to get enough money from only one.
After the trouble with my money was over, I walked to an estate agent and tried to buy a house. They said they would be ready in some days and introduce me to places that will interest me. Now that I have done everything that I needed to do, I booked a hotel.
I still haven't made my fake identifications because there is no need for that for the moment. In the following years, I will most probably do nothing until the plot finally starts.
One week later.
The estate called me on my new phone in the morning.
"Good morning, sir Light we now have some houses that we could show you today. So if you are available, please come to the address I will send you in one hour."
"Okay. No problem, I will be there in one hour."
I answered and canceled the call.
After one hour I arrived at the place.
It was a bit surprising. The house was in the middle of a small forest. There was only one other house in the surroundings, and it was five kilometers away from here.
It is said that there live some heroes, so the price of this building is pretty high because of the "high" security.
I don't care that much about the money and the so-called protection. The place is in the Hiroshima province because I didn't want to be near the main plot city. I can teleport or fly there in seconds, so there is no problem.
Anyways the house was surrounded only by trees. It is in the middle of a small forest. How did that even go through?
I know why nobody bought this house, like what the heck. Without movement quirk, you wouldn't even have the chance to go out every day. No street is leading out of this forest. So cars were not available, and you would be trapped here. For me, it is perfect, but for others? I don't think so.
It seems like a single-family house.
"Here, you are. Let me guide you through the first house in the tour." the estate agent said with a smile on his face.
He was a slightly built man with a tidy-looking suit, entirely out of the picture for a place like this.
He guided me through the house with small steps and gave me information on everything related to the house.
"The heroes that live near here are pretty well known. There are in the top 20 of the Japanese Rank system. If you could befriend them, it will also be good for you."
Such useless information.
Why would I care about protection?
The house was like the outside look, a single-family home. It had three big bedrooms, a big living room, two big bathrooms, and a big kitchen.
It was more on the luxuries side of the single-family houses. Every room was big, and the bathrooms were utterly functional, even if we are in the middle of a forest.
A lovely house. I guess I get this over with and buy it.
"That's all nice, so do you have the contract with you? I will buy it now."
I said to the smiling man in front of me.
He was a bit stunned at first, but he got the contract out with a fast hand.
I signed it and officially paid. It usually would be way more complicated, and there would be no way I could buy this all without identification. Still, it is easy to manipulate memories with my power, so the seller thinks he already got everything from me. There would only be a problem if anyone rechecked the information, and that will most likely never happen.
One day later, I officially checked out of my hotel and wanted to start to live in my house.
I walked to my house as I could already see a small group of people in front of my house. What's wrong with these people? There is no way that someone came to my house by accident. Who are these people?
"Oh, hello, you must be our new neighbor. I never thought anyone would ever buy this house. It is a long time that someone lived here." said a middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man was in the group of three that were standing in front of my house.
With casual clothes, black hair, and a muscled body, he could be said to be handsome. He seems to be in his mid-thirties.
"Yes, I just bought this house yesterday. It's nice to see my new neighbors." I said while giving my hand to him.
When we were shaking hands, I looked at the other people around him.
There was one beautiful woman with white hair and a nice-looking face. She also seems to be in her mid-thirties and is most likely the wife of the guy I am shaking hands with.
In contrast, the other one standing beside them seems to be a little kid. Maybe ten years old?
"Nice to meet you. My name is Akihiro, and this is my wife Fumiko and my son Sora."
"Well, That is my first day here, and there is still no furniture, but if you want, you can come in for tea," I said.
It's never wrong to have a good relationship with your neighbors. If you need someone to help, they will usually help. I don't really need help with anything.
However, I am still a bit lonely after 99.960 years of living alone, even me, who usually doesn't care about something like that.
That surprised me a bit in the past, but after I thought about it, humans are social living beings and don't like to live in isolation. Even if I am not a human anymore, there is still the fact that I was one.
"You don't have to. Let me help with your furniture in the future. Just call me, and I will come to help." said the middle-aged man.
"You are no bother. Just come in."
I said while they just nodded.
We walked into the living room. I put a high-class-looking table and four chairs out of my dimensional inventory. The people around me were a bit shocked.
"Wow. Big brother, what was that. Is that your quirk?" said the little kid.
"Don't ask such questions, Sora. It's unfriendly," said Fumiko.
Now that I think about it, I didn't introduce myself, and the people in front of me never said their surname. Why is that? Maybe there is a reason, so I ignore it for now.
"Oh, now that I think about it. I never introduced myself. I am sorry. My name is Noah Light. My quirk's name is spiritual qi manipulation."
"Spiritual qi? What's that, father?" asked Sora.
"I don't know. Some fictional stories from old times describe something like that, but I never thought there were real. Your name doesn't sound Japanese. Where are you from?" asked Akihiro.
"Well, I am not from Japan. That is enough to know. Now come, I will brew you some tea."
Of course, I don't say where I came from. Who would even believe if I said that I came from another world?
I put out a tea set with some cups. The tea was made automatically in front of the stunned family.
After some small talk, the family left for the day and said they would come over again some time. In the following days, I just furnished the house. Everything seems to be High-Class, and it looked pretty nice.
After that, I have practically done nothing in my time. My neighbors visited occasionally, and I often played with the little Sora that is getting bigger by the day. Obviously, he gets older.
The time passed, and it's already ten years. Only twenty-eight years until the plot starts.
Today Sora was in front of me with what seemed to be his girlfriend.
Time seems like an unavoidable element in life.
It hurts to see a little kid that you know for years getting older. He is now twenty years old and came today to say something to me. Most likely something about that girl beside him.
The girl seems to be eighteen years old. She had white hair with darker looking skin. It looks tanned, but it just seems to be something from her quirk. The most noticeable external feature from her was her long white bunny ears.
After the years, I found out about the surname of my neighbors. It is Usagiyama. Yeah, that one.
So it is not so surprising to see his girlfriend with such looks. She must be the future mother of the Rabbit Hero Mirko.
"Hey, big brother, long time no see," said Sora with a smile on his face.
"I know, I know, after getting a girlfriend, you forgot about me. Well, it was just one year, so it's not that long, but it still hurts." I said with a sad look on my face and a fake tear in my eye.
"Wait. That is your big brother? Didn't you say that he is older than you? Why does he look like he is eighteen?" said the rabbit.
"Now that you talk about it. You're appearance never changed in the years I've known you," said Sora with a confused look on his face.
They completely ignored my fake tears. I should work on my acting.
Well, there is no helping it. Let's stop the act and answer him.
"Huh, didn't I said that already? I am completely eternal. I don't age. I am probably older than your whole family ages added up together."
"Wait. What?" said Sora with a shocked look.
The rabbit also looked a bit shocked.
"Well, enough about that. Why are you here?" I asked.
"Yeah, sorry, but that surprised me a bit. I am only here to give you an invitation to our wedding."
"Wait. You are already marrying someone, and I am still single after 99.987 Years? What is wrong with my life?" I whispered.
"What did you just say?" asked Sora, who didn't hear me.
"Wait, is that real? How is that even possible quirks are not that old." said the rabbit, who I forget to ask her name. It seems like she could hear me.
"Well, miss, what do you think are quirks in the first place. Many different things can give someone power in the universe, and quirks are only one of the options." I answered.
"What are you talking about? We don't have so much time, so I will just give you the invitation."
Sora said while standing up and walking out with his girlfriend.
I just looked at the invitation and pondered a bit. It shouldn't be wrong to go there.
While I pondered about if I should go or not.
Sora and his soon-to-be wife talked with each other.
"Who was this monster, and how did you meet him?" she asked.
"What do you mean he bought the house here ten years ago. Since then, I often went to him and played. He is like an older brother to me."
"Older brother, Huh. You should know that I have an enhanced sense of danger, and he was a monster. My senses screamed not to offend him. That never happened even after I saw All Might once. He is stronger than him, and that by a lot." She said with a severe expression on her face.
Sora just thought about it and shrugged his shoulder.
"Well, whatever. Noah is still one of the persons that I would regard as family. Hopefully, he will come to our wedding."
"Why shouldn't he come?"
"He seldom goes out. He always says something like the time has yet to come and then laughs weirdly," answered Sora.
