Ant King In MHA

Chapter 131: Fancy Party



__________ POV Narration__________

"Fucking finally..." Yori said as he looked at the venue where the party was supposed to be held.

"Hey~ It wasn't so bad~ Also, swearing is kinda unbecoming of you~" Yori was usually a formal worded man, rarely losing composure.

But Beru somehow managed to completely shift Yori's mood in an instant. And he did so constantly, always finding a new way to irritate the otherwise calm scientist.

"What do you mean 'it wasn't so bad'? We're even late because of your lacklustre driving!" Yori argued while slowly preparing to get out of the car.

"We're merely fashionably late, mate~ Don't sweat it too much, you'll ruin your suit too early~" Beru's words just got a sigh out of Beru this time.

The two of them got out of the car as Beru returned to his usual form and height. He looked around, the entrance was already mostly deserted, the only ones being present were a few guards.

The guards immediately spotted Beru and Yori, they rushed to greet them.

"Evening sir, assuming you are Dr Goda Yori? You are indeed on the list... But, the person accompanying you isn't unfortunately..." The guard seemed to be a bit stressed when speaking.

He found it hard to deny the entry of one of the strongest and most controversial heroes of their generation. The Ant King, Beru, was not a person that needed any introductions.

The only people that didn't know of him were the ones living under rocks. At this point, he was as much of a household name as All Might. He was never truly called a symbol though, only recognized for his past and overbearing strength.

"Don't worry about it, I spoke with the event organizer beforehand. He may not have updated the lists yet... But it shouldn't be an issue, I assure you of that. If anything happens, tell your supervisors to come look for me." Yori patted the man on the shoulder and gestured Beru to just follow him inside.

Beru just shrugged, not really caring about the guard all that much. The man was just trying to do his job, although he looked mighty uncomfortable while doing so.

"I-Isee... Enjoy your stay sirs..." The guard ended up composing himself as Beru passed him. The other guard also didn't put any questions.

The second Beru entered the entrance hall, he realised just what type of place Yori had brought him to. 'It's filled with pompous pricks...' Everywhere he looked, he could see people socializing and making connections.

The party had technically only started 10 minutes ago, yet they were all already expanding their social circles.

Beru already knew about most of them, Yori had given him a list of the people that would be present, as well as information about all of them. Just enough for Beru to understand who he was dealing with.

Still, a part of his small, insectoid heart still hoped that there would be a chance for some type of fun at that boring gathering.

But, after seeing that the ballroom was only filled with people shaking hands and giving cards, he decided to crush his own hopes to avoid future disappointment.

The second he and Yori walked in, the entire venue went quiet as the doorman announced the entry of the new guests.

"Dr Goda Yori and Mr Beru have arrived in a timely manner!" It was a basic announcement, but it still somewhat ticked Yori since he realised that his arrival was anything but timely.

He decided not to complain though, only shaking his head for a few seconds before looking at the crowd with a fake smile.

"So great to see everyone gathered here! I can even see some old friends here and there. I'm sure this night will prove quite fantastic!" He greeted them all at once in order to avoid getting approached by just about everyone inside the venue.

Beru also decided to mimic Yori... To some extent.

"Great to be here~ When's the food coming out?~" His attempt was a bit less refined. Now, usually, no one sane was going to question one of the most prominent figures of their generation... But this wasn't a party that sane people often attended.

"Such a lack of manners, truly fitting for a mere orphan..." The voice was a mere mutter at most, maybe a jest between friends. It wasn't even spoken in Japanese but in English.

The one speaking was the son of one of the richest families in the world, Gunther Rothschild, he was joking around with a few of his friends from the USA.

Both Beru and Yori heard the jest clearly. Most of the people in the room were oblivious to the blatant disrespect that the young Gunther had just shown Beru.

Beru himself wanted to just laugh a bit. He didn't really care about being called an orphan, it was who he was. He was certainly not mad about that. But he was going to spike the man's drink with laxatives just because his tone was rude.

Yori wasn't really going to take that lying down, he was about to walk towards the table that Gunther and his friends were staying at, but Beru just placed a hand on his shoulders and shook his head, antennas and all.

"Don't bother with useless stuff~ We're above that~" Beru said as he warped the strongest laxatives from the nearest pharmacies right into the drinks of all of the people at that table.

Beru was a true and shameless hypocrite. He watched with a mental smile as the people at that table all rushed to the toilet in perfect sync just a minute later.

He also warped out the rest of the liquid in a plant somewhere in the venue, to prevent others from shitting themselves.

"Food will be prepared promptly good sir. You can take some time and get accustomed to the scenery." A waiter spoke to Beru while taking a bow.

"Oh~ Thanks~ You're too kind~ I'll just be hanging around these parts~" The presentation was to come after everyone finished eating. For now, Beru was about to experience what it means to be influential.

"Beru! I am such a huge fan of your-" More and more people flooded him and started asking him random questions. Beru did his best and responded all he could.

"Is it true that you are stronger than All Might?" There were questions of all types sneaked in there.

"That's debatable~ We've no reason to go all out and injure each other~" Beru said, trying to preserve Toshi's reputation in the process.

"I heard that you are in a relationship with a fellow Pro Hero, Miss Midnight, right?" They were asking a lot about him, private and public life combined.

"Yeah~ We're going out~ Dating and all~ Not really tried to hide it since I often take her out in public~" Beru said while scratching his head.

Currently, he was just hoping the food would come sooner... Just so he could find an excuse to fuck off elsewhere.

If only he had a clone to replace him...
