Ant King In MHA

__________ POV Narration__________

Beru stared into the void. His eyes glazed over as he slumped onto the couch that was placed inside the teacher's lounge.

Nemuri was at his side, still snuggling up to him, completely ignoring the fact that they were in public.

His friends were still somewhat near as they all seemed to laugh at Beru's predicament.

"There's no denying the fact that you're the Symbol now. No one can persuade the people otherwise,"  Toshinori spoke out of experience as he held a wry smile on his face.

Beru turned his head, his eyes blazing with frustration as he glared at his old friend.

Toshi's smirk only got wider under Beru's gaze. None of the teachers would ever feel intimidated by Beru though, they all knew him too well to fear him.

Eventually, Beru gave up and just heaved a sigh.

"I guess it can't be helped~ I don't really want to retire yet, so I guess I'll have to deal with it for now," Beru spoke out with a frown.

"Stop moping around... I doubt this position will hinder you in any way." Nezu spoke up again as he also sat down on a chair nearby.

"It's already being a pain in the ass~ People keep bothering me on the streets~" Beru pouted a bit as Nemuri laughed at him a bit more.

"That's just what being a celebrity is like! Not like it wasn't happening in the past, maybe it's to a larger extent now.

"You'll learn to deal with it, I doubt the responsibility is too much for you to handle," Toshi said while scratching the back of his head and remembering some of the feats that Beru had performed.

There wasn't anyone more qualified to hold the title of Symbol of Peace. That much was obvious to anyone that knew of Beru's past and achievements.

"Still... It's a bit of a shame you lost your arm and leg. The doctors wanted to amputate them.

I was against that, believing that you'd be able to recover eventually... But you didn't heal them in your sleep..." Nemuri spoke with a bit of grief etched in her tone.

She already knew of his condition since she had stood by his side for the longest while in the hospital. She hoped that Beru wouldn't react too badly when waking up, even now, she was hoping that Beru was all right mentally.

"Welp, not much can be done about it at this point~ I won't cut it off though, if one day it heals then that's nice, if it never happens then that's also fine~"

Beru relaxed attitude managed to reassure her that he didn't care much about losing his limbs.

In truth, Beru could always just move his broken limbs using the various quirks that he had. Even Muscular's quirk was something he could use to regain temporary control of his limbs.

But there wasn't much reason for him to do that right away, or anytime soon at all.

Nezu had a frown on his face as he thought about some ways to lessen Beru's stress and help him.

The issue of Beru's limbs was not known to the public yet, but it was only a matter of time until they found out.

There was also the situation with Beru's internal organs, which was quite hard to bring up.

Nezu only knew that, upon reaching the hospital, Beru's organs were completely mangled and shredded apart.

They simply didn't even have a way of repairing them using modern medicine, many prominent doctors were called in order to suppress the injuries.

No one could fully heal them though, it was unknown how much of the injuries were healed now though.

Nezu thought that asking Beru about it would be quite useless since the insectoid couldn't even feel pain.

The principal didn't know that Beru had already checked himself for any more injuries using x-ray vision. Even though he couldn't feel pain, he knew his own body very well.

And, besides a few abdominal muscles being damaged beyond repair, his organs had already recovered completely.

"I believe we should perform a few more check-ups on you. Just in case there are any more complications." Nezu spoke up while the people in the room still contemplated the situation.

"Nah~ I'm fine really~ It's been a long time since I've exerted myself this much~ My injuries are currently just my arm and leg~" Beru waved off the concerns of everyone in the room with a swift and uncaring tone.

"If I am to hazard a guess, Hyper Regeneration attempted to heal me as best it could, concentrating on my more important injuries first~ Which led to my arm and leg just healing naturally in that time~"

Nezu gained a look of realization at that point. He didn't know that Beru's regular healing speed was already leagues above that of regular people.

Beru had the foresight necessary to reach such a conclusion after checking his body a few times.

"I guess it's your choice. But I'm sure a lot of us would feel a lot better if we knew for sure." Nezu still made a point to try and convince Beru to get checked up for one last time.

At this point, he really didn't want a situation like All Might's to happen to Beru as well.

In the end, after a few concerned stares reached him, including Nemuri, who was now in his lap, and the majority of the teachers in the room, the insectoid decided to just go along with it.

"Sure~ Whatever~ A few tests won't hurt me all that much~" He ended up shrugging and heaving a sigh as the people in the room seemed to become a bit more relieved.

"Anyway~ We can do that later~ Recovery Girl is always around here anyway~," Beru said while smiling and stroking Nemuri's hair.

"Hmm? It wouldn't take so long. Do you have something planned for now?" Nezu asked while looking at Beru with a strange gaze.

"Course I do~" Beru proceeded to slap Nemuri's plump butt as he picked her up bridal style and stood up.

The woman in question shrieked a bit at the sudden aggression, but to everyone in the room, it sounded a lot more like a moan.

"L-let me down..." Her voice was really weak in comparison, not quite honest either. Her red face and beaming eyes also certainly didn't help her case.

Everyone in the room knew her well enough to know that she appreciated the situation more than she was willing to admit.

"I gotta make sure I'm still performing properly~ Can't believe I've let poor Nemuri go on a few weeks-long dry spell~" Beru winked at Nezu and the other teachers as he opened up a foggy gate.

"Nemuri's taking a day off~! SEE YOU ALL IN A FEW DAYS!~" Beru quickly walked through while everyone in the room just stared at his back with a mix of emotions...

'This man became the Symbol of Peace...'
