I Stream DC on Marvel-Chapter 821 My Hero Academia: Exam Days, Allen’s "Harem," Jealousy and Admiration, A Charming Scoundrel or a Son-of-a-Bitch Troll? and Flirting with the Girls in Class 1-A.

The first day of written exams ended without incident, although on the way out, the eyes of all the students were fixed on Allen, who was walking alongside a group of girls that many boys enviously and jealously referred to as "Walker's harem."

This wasn't unfounded. While Allen got along well with many guys, it was undeniable that he spent most of his time with girls—among them, Itsuka and Mina, who had openly declared their intentions.

Mina always spoke her mind openly and even used nicknames like "Honey" or "Darling" without any hesitation.

Itsuka was more discreet, but she often acted very intimately with Allen—from holding his hand or arm as if it were the most natural thing in the world to even sitting on his lap in the cafeteria.

Momo and Ochako, despite not doing any of that, were the worst at hiding their feelings. Ochako would often get lost staring at Allen for long periods, and Momo was very jealous—even if she didn't realize it herself, she always tried to position herself between Allen and the other girls.

Of course, they weren't the only ones. There were more girls close to being included in this so-called "harem," to varying degrees, such as Ibara, Tsuyu, Reiko, Setsuna, and recently Jiro. Of course, this was mostly the students' imagination—but it wasn't far from reality.

There were also rumors that Allen was such a womanizer that he had seduced Midnight and Lady Nagant, but no one took those seriously—it wouldn't make sense. If the students knew that those two slept with him every night, they would curse the heavens and God.

Despite all of that, due to recent events, the jealousy toward Allen had lessened. After all, it was undeniable that the guy wasn't just shameless and apparently a womanizer, but also a hero—one who would definitely reach the top in the future. Given that, it didn't sound so irrational that he was so popular with girls.

"Ugh… everyone's staring at us…" Ochako said nervously, even hunching her back a little.

"Yeah…" Momo added, a drop of sweat running down her cheek. She wasn't a shy girl, but the looks weren't just curiosity—many girls were glaring at them with jealousy, envy, and displeasure.

It was curious, but ever since Allen's fame had increased, it was now the girls around him who were receiving the piercing stares.

"We all know whose fault this is~" Itsuka teased.

Allen was already handsome, strong, and charismatic. His only flaw was his shameless, selfish, and arrogant personality—or at least, that was the image formed during the sports festival. It had been so strong that even many believed that Allen might turn into a villain in the future.

However, during the train incident, they saw a side of him that had never been shown before—something that proved not only that the bastard had a heart, but that regardless of his attitude, he would never be a villain. If anything, he might even replace All Might.

"Don't worry," Allen laughed confidently, with a hint of narcissism. "Just ignore them and feel lucky to be close to me."

"How do you not bite your tongue saying that?" Jiro looked at Allen with a sigh. Of course, she knew many of the things Allen said were jokes, but that ego of his was, for the most part, real.

"You… be careful. If your ego grows any more, you'll hit the ceiling when you walk into a room," Momo snorted.

Toru scratched her cheek. "Maybe you could tone down that part of you that is… how do I put it…"

"Arrogant?~" Momo mocked. Even if Allen had the strength to be arrogant, she believed he should control it.

"A troll?" Itsuka laughed. To her, that trait was part of Allen's charm, but it still needed to be pointed out.

"Shameless?" Ochako asked innocently. Even though it should be a bad thing, after getting to know Allen, she didn't think he was shameless with bad intentions—just someone who enjoyed teasing others.

"Greedy~" Ibara said, smiling like the sun. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

Ibara's case was interesting. She simply spent a lot of time with Allen, but unlike the other girls, he didn't flirt with her. That led to a more friendship-like relationship, allowing her to see things from a perspective the others couldn't—like how Allen seemed to be winning over several girls at the same time. Whether it was intentional or unconscious, she didn't know.

"Womanizer…" Jiro said, looking at Allen's back with indifferent eyes, though there was a trace of resentment beneath her words. Jiro went further than Ibara and directly accused him.

Allen felt offended by the comments and looked at the girls with suspicion and disapproval, as if they were all naive children who didn't understand life.

"First of all, I'm not arrogant—I'm proud. Those are two different things. Second, yes, it's true, I'm a troll, a bastard, and a son of a bitch —but generally only with bad guys or people who don't show me respect or pick fights, like Bakugo. Third, I'm not greedy—I just expect some kind of compensation for my sacrifice and dedication during my duty. I don't think there's anything wrong with that," Allen lifted his chin proudly.

The girls looked at Allen speechless. This guy had the sharpest tongue in the world—no matter what they accused him of, he always had some shameless excuse ready.

"As for being a womanizer, that's slander! I am a pure being of light who doesn't have a girlfriend in this world," Allen declared righteously, free of sin.

Mirko was more like his lover, Kaina was in progress, Nemuri hadn't made any progress yet, Himiko was more of a potential servant or pet, and none of those girls were his official girlfriend—so technically, he wasn't lying. But the Chat looked at him with disdain for being such a bastard.

Even though Allen's statement was technically true, for some reason, the girls felt like this shameless guy was getting away with it again.

"Lastly, I am shameless, I admit it—but I am because they say the shameless are invincible, and I need to be invincible. I must protect many people—including all of you," Allen put on a pained expression.

That moved the girls, who grew worried and even felt bad about their accusations. Allen had many villains after him—people so terrifying they couldn't possibly face them—and despite that, he carried that burden.

Momo, Itsuka, and Jiro lowered their heads, feeling guilty for their earlier words. Toru and Mina hugged Allen, while Ochako wanted to do the same but didn't dare. Even so, she smiled as a tear formed in her eye.

Ibara narrowed her eyes, but then smiled sweetly. "Allen-kun, you're such a bad boy~"

The rest of the students fell silent, and soon a wave of admiration and respect for Allen began to form. Just as it seemed like everyone was about to cheer him on—

Allen suddenly sighed again, full of sorrow.

"Besides, I'm too young, talented, handsome, heroic, strong, and absolute to die. How could I bear leaving this world with the suffering of missing out on myself?! Just imagining how miserable the world would be without me breaks my heart!"

The girls—and all the students—froze with their mouths open upon hearing such a narcissistic, shameless, outrageous declaration.

Allen must have had skin tougher than diamond to say something like that out loud.

Also—HOW MUCH SELF-ESTEEM DID THIS BASTARD HAVE?!

He himself could barely hold back his laughter. He had always known he had a talent for trolling others.

[Was it really a joke?]

The system that knew Allen best understood that he wasn't that narcissistic—but saying he wasn't proud of himself would be a lie.

....

Gwen – Haha, these poor girls have no idea what awaits them with this shameless troll~

Saeko – You seem very calm about the idea of Allen having more women. Doesn't it bother you?

Gwen – He's a bastard… but in the end, you grow attached to him, even if sometimes you want to beat him up… besides, I love him~

Tony – If I didn't know Allen, I'd say he emits some kind of brainwashing pheromone on women. It's not normal how so many beauties are okay sharing him.

McDragon – Right?! I'm not the only one who thinks this is absurd. I mean, yeah, he's handsome and all, but… Ah, forget what I said!

Rick – Hahaha, what did you say? Say it again, I didn't record it!

McDragon – Ahhh!!!

....

(The next day)

The second day of written exams came to an end. This time it was a bit more difficult, and Toru needed Allen to pat her on the head and praise her to recover from the mental exhaustion.

"You worked really hard," Allen said.

"Hehe, that's right!" Toru blushed as she puffed out her chest with pride.

"..." Jiro watched this in silence, her eyes narrowed, and a drop of sweat on her cheek.

Allen noticed and gave a half-smile. "If you want me to praise you, just say it, Jiro-chan."

"...!" Jiro didn't respond. Instead, she looked away with a faint blush on her cheeks.

"Honey❤️~"

Allen was about to tease Jiro, but Mina suddenly arrived and threw herself into his chest—she also wanted to be praised for her effort.

The rest of the class had already gotten used to Allen acting like this with several girls, so many of them didn't even bother turning to look—but of course, there were exceptions.

"Allen-kun, don't you think this is immoral?!" Iida adjusted his glasses as he watched, preparing to give a speech about public decency.

"Iida..." Allen looked at him with pity, making him uncomfortable. "If you truly consider head pats immoral, I wonder what kind of sad childhood you had."

Iida froze, and several people in the classroom burst out laughing—like Tetsutetsu, Kirishima, Kaminari, and Sero.

"N-no, that's not it…" Iida stiffened, trying to recover, but he wasn't good with words in situations like this and ended up looking like a malfunctioning robot.

"I see!" Deku started writing enthusiastically in his notebook. Ever since Allen had become something like a professional hero, he had earned an extra page in Deku's notes.

In fact, given the number of templates Allen had, Deku had dedicated an entire notebook to him—and even then, he believed it wouldn't be enough.

...

After leaving the school, Allen was accompanied by Itsuka, Mina, Momo, Toru, Ochako, and Tsuyu.

At the entrance, he was surprised to see a large number of reporters. Their target was clearly him, since he hadn't given any public statement about what happened on the bullet train.

Allen stopped, looked at them, and smiled. "It's hard being popular. Maybe I should say a few humble words, or they'll never leave me alone."

Tsuyu tilted her head. "Are you going to brag or something, Allen-chan?"

Momo sighed. "Stop. Your image has finally improved—don't ruin it so easily."

"Nonsense," Allen said, offended. "I risked my life, got paid a miserable amount for it—at least I'm going to brag about it… I mean, the public expects a moving speech from me."

"You're still mad about that?" Itsuka laughed. "Come on, Allen, if you want money, just marry me—or Momo—and we'll take care of you~"

"Huh?! What are you saying?!" Momo jumped, surprised and embarrassed by Itsuka's words.

Allen, on the other hand, grabbed his chin thoughtfully. "Oh, that doesn't sound like a bad idea."

Momo—and even Itsuka, who had made the joke—froze as they both became nervous.

"Allen!" Mina grabbed him from behind by the neck in desperation. "No! Don't do it! I'll work hard to support you!"

"Me too!" Toru exclaimed grumpily.

"I'm kidding," Allen laughed at Mina's reaction. Then he turned, wrapped an arm around her waist, and looked into her eyes. "It's obvious, but I'm more than capable of supporting a big family…"

Mina blushed. Despite how shameless the statement was, Allen's charm multiplied in that moment, clouding her mind.

The rest of the girls couldn't believe it. Sometimes they wondered if Allen was serious or just joking. After all, he was a shameless troll who loved making fun of others—but strangely, when it came to cute girls, he often sounded completely serious. It was absurd… was this guy actually trying to build a harem?!

In the end, the girls convinced Allen to ignore the reporters. He used a template—Fugaku Uchiha, the father of Itachi and Sasuke from Naruto, the foolish man who led his clan to ruin. Unlike his sons, he didn't have exceptional talent, but his Sharingan was enough to deceive the reporters with a simple illusion.

"Alright, let's go."

The girls, already used to Allen using all kinds of Quirks, weren't surprised, though Momo couldn't help but snort.

"Don't you dare use that hypnosis Quirk to do bad things to girls…"

"Huh?" Allen frowned, stopped walking, and faced Momo, bringing his face closer as his smile turned mischievous. "I don't need something as pathetic as hypnosis to do bad things."

Momo and the rest of the girls turned red like tomatoes. Allen was definitely not a normal guy—otherwise, he wouldn't dare flirt so shamelessly.

"S-shut up, pervert," Momo said, looking away, but Allen grabbed her chin and made her look at him. "W-what?!"

Momo's embarrassment reached its peak, yet at the same time, her body was filled with a strange sense of anticipation.

The other girls looked on in disbelief. Sure, Allen was shameless—but was he really bold enough to flirt with one of them right in front of the others? Wasn't he afraid of getting stabbed?

"It's nothing… I was just thinking it before, but you're really cute."

"...!" Momo's mind short-circuited, her eyes spinning as if steam were coming out of her head.

Allen let go of her, and she dropped to her knees on the ground.

Allen shook his head in disappointment and sighed. "If only you weren't such a proud and uncharming girl… I might even fall for you."

The girls froze like statues as Allen walked away, chuckling to himself. Embarrassing girls with his shamelessness was just as entertaining as trolling and humiliating villains.

When the girls recovered, they caught up with Allen, though their mood had worsened. On one hand, Toru and Mina felt jealous, while Itsuka and Ochako were upset that Allen showed no consideration for the girls' feelings by acting like that in front of them. As for Momo, she felt a bit down—perhaps because, even as a joke, Allen had essentially said he didn't feel anything for her yet.

Noticing this, Allen knew he was at fault, so he took them to a dessert restaurant. Sweets and beautifully decorated desserts always put women in a good mood.

The girls formed a sort of truce and secretly planned to make Allen suffer by ordering as much as they could. As a result, their table was filled with towering desserts.

Allen leaned on the table as he watched. "I like that you're so honest. And don't worry about your weight—I don't mind a girl with a little extra meat on her bones.~"

The girls froze. In their attempt to mess with Allen, they had forgotten that sweets were the forbidden fruit for girls—delicious, but with consequences.

Allen laughed. To avoid wasting anything, he stored whatever the girls couldn't eat in his inventory. When the bill arrived, the girls smiled conspiratorially. Of course, they had only wanted to play a prank on Allen—if he couldn't pay, Momo had already said she would take care of it.

However, to their surprise, Allen pulled out a black card.

"You!" Momo stood up. As a wealthy young lady, she knew the requirements needed to have something like that.

"Allen, how much did they pay you for saving the train?" Itsuka asked, a drop of sweat on her cheek. Even if she wasn't as rich as Momo, she was still well-informed.

"Hm?" Allen sighed before frowning. "Don't remind me. Those scammers said my bonus would barely be three hundred thousand. If I were a top ten hero, I would've gotten at least ten million."

"Three hundred thousand yen?!" Ochako exclaimed. She knew heroes earned well, but that was the equivalent of about two thousand dollars—for just one day.

"Yen?" Allen blinked. "Oh, right… I'm in Japan."

Ochako's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets when she realized the real value of his reward.

A/N: The topic of money was never really discussed in depth on MHA, but it's assumed they made a lot—just look at Endeavor; their hero agency is housed in a rather flashy building.
