- Tenya Iida
Are you serious, Midoriya? Even if you find the Demon King, do you really think you can defeat him?
- Izuku Midoriya
I know. I wouldn't have a chance the way I am now.
- Izuku Midoriya
On my way to find the Demon King, I need to work hard, train, and get stronger so that I can defeat him.
- Izuku Midoriya
First, I need to gather information to find the Demon King's location. I guess this is goodbye...
- Ochaco Uraraka
Hey, Deku. Can I come with you?
- Izuku Midoriya
Huh? Uraraka?!
- Ochaco Uraraka
My parents'll be in danger with the Demon King awakened. Someone’s got to defeat him.
- Ochaco Uraraka
The more of us that stand up against him, the better chance we have!
- Ochaco Uraraka
Plus, I can't just let you go on such a dangerous journey all by yourself!
- Izuku Midoriya
Uraraka...
- Tenya Iida
Let me accompany you as well! I want to protect everyone as much as you.
- Izuku Midoriya
You too, Iida?! Are you guys sure? You might not come back alive.
- Tenya Iida
Even more reason to go. I am a knight, a protector of the people.
- Tenya Iida
A great knight...like my brother, would never abandon the world and his friends to save his own hide!
- Ochaco Uraraka
You might not be able to do it alone, but with all of us working together, we may just be able to defeat the Demon King!
- Izuku Midoriya
Thank you! Okay, let's get ready!
The three young warriors ventured forth on their journey to find the Demon King, heading to a neighboring town to gather information on his location.
However, their path was not an easy one. Many monsters stood in their way.
- Tenya Iida
Oooooh! Don't think you can match my speed so easily!
- Ochaco Uraraka
Lead them to one place so I can just—boooooooom!
- Izuku Midoriya
Wh-Whoa!
- Izuku Midoriya
Iida. You can really move around quickly in that heavy armor! Plus, you know how to play a decoy.
- Izuku Midoriya
Uraraka. You avoided the attacks by levitating and then wiped out all those enemies with your wide-range magic!
- Izuku Midoriya
You're both so powerful! We got this!
- Izuku Midoriya
Iida, watch out!
- Tenya Iida
Huh?! Th-Thanks, Midoriya! I let my guard down.
- Ochaco Uraraka
Nice work, Deku! Way to keep an eye out.
- Izuku Midoriya
You two are so strong, I can relax and observe our surroundings.
- Tenya Iida
I don't remember there being so many monsters around this area.
- Ochaco Uraraka
Maybe it's 'cause of the Demon King. We might find something if we go into the city and ask around.
- Tenya Iida
Here we are. This is a pretty big town. We should be able to talk with plenty of people.
- Izuku Midoriya
Okay. Let's split up and see what information we can find!
- Izuku Midoriya
Excuse me! Have you heard a rumor that the Demon King was awakened?
- Townsperson
Demon King? Awakened? First I'm hearing about that.
- Townsperson
Hmm... Well, I dunno if this had anything to do with the Demon King...
- Townsperson
I've heard lotsa folks say the monsters outside of town've gotten really wild.
- Izuku Midoriya
(Ah! I knew it wasn't my imagination!)
- Townsperson
They're damaging the surrounding area, so the soldiers went out to eradicate 'em.
- Tenya Iida
The soldiers left town? Does that mean the security inside is light?
- Townsperson
Yeah... There's been a lot of thefts recently. It's gettin' to be quite the problem...
- Ochaco Uraraka
Is no one able to deal with the thieves?
- Elderly Townsperson
The young folk in town try their best, but those thieves are as clever as they are wicked.
- Elderly Townsperson
Them whippersnappers can't even find the thieves' hideout. What an embarrassment.
- Ochaco Uraraka
You two! Did you hear that? Thieves!
- Tenya Iida
Indeed. I would like to prioritize gathering information on the Demon King and his associates, but...
- Izuku Midoriya
We can't just ignore this. We have to do something.
- Tenya Iida
I agree.
- Ochaco Uraraka
All right! Let's make short work of those thieves!
- Izuku Midoriya
Thanks! Now that that's decided, I have an idea. Listen up...
- Soldier
Captain Shoto! We've discovered some suspicious persons that appear to be the thieves!
- Shoto Todoroki
I see. Let's move out. We can’t let them run amok in this town any longer.
- Thieves
Damn! Gettin' caught by a bunch of kids!
- Ochaco Uraraka
You were right, Deku! Their hideout was outside of town!
- Izuku Midoriya
I could only narrow down their location 'cause you two helped search and gather information.
- Tenya Iida
We just need to hand over these thieves to the soldiers...
- Shoto Todoroki
Hey, what are you doing?
- Izuku Midoriya
Huh? A horse?!
- Ochaco Uraraka
Woah, it's my first time seein' a guy riding a white horse!
- Tenya Iida
Are you patrolling soldiers? There aren't many monsters here, so why are you...?
- Shoto Todoroki
You were making a scene. Anyone would come check it out.
- Shoto Todoroki
Hmm, you sure do ask a lot of questions. Sounds like you don't want soldiers coming too close.
- Shoto Todoroki
I knew it. You are...the thieves.
- Izuku Midoriya
Huh?!
- Shoto Todoroki
Knights! Surround them!
- Soldier
Yes, sir!
- Izuku Midoriya
W-Wait a second! We're not thieves!
- Shoto Todoroki
Your protests are futile. You're under arrest, thieves!
