After all, it\'s not every day that Managers were allowed to directly involve themselves with their Disciples. Not only would it break the rules, but they might even get removed from their position.

"This is the last one, right? What a sneaky one indeed." Bucky Barnes said to himself while looking around. He held a map in his hand with a couple of squiggly lines written on it. By the end of one of those lines was a location marked with a red \'X\', sort of like a treasure map.

"Is it really here? I doubt it." Bucky Barnes scratched his head in frustration.

This project of Bucky Barnes had been ongoing for the past ten years, and he hasn\'t grown tired of it. His goal was to get three of \'them\' and in the span of ten years, he\'d only captured two.

This time, however, he was feeling lucky, and based on the additional information he gathered in the past two years, he knew that he was this close to finding what he was looking for.

While most Managers would rather choose a lot of Disciples and pit them against each other, he was different. He would carefully choose his Disciples, and he would guide them and help them grow as much as he could, provided that he didn\'t break any rules.

This was the reason why his past Disciples were pretty powerful in the past. Some of the Managers even suspected him of breaking the rules, but not once did he do it. And yet he was able to recruit powerful Disciples as if it were nothing.

He was an underrated Manager, but every Disciple he\'d ever had left a lasting imprint in history.

"And today, we\'re going to create another history."  Bucky Barnes said to himself as he walked forward.

At the moment, he was in a lush jungle, filled with thick vines and towering trees that covered the sunlight. a dark atmosphere enveloped the forest.

"It\'s here all right...." He said to himself as he gritted his teeth.

From the center of the forest, a huge roar could be heard, well, it was more like a battle cry than a roar. A small-scale quake was felt on the ground, causing the trees to slightly shake at the sheer power of whatever it was.

"I\'m going in." He continued.

...

Back on Earth, United Superheroes Academy,

Since the seating arrangement matches were done, and there were no complaints about their position, the event had come to an end and it was time for afternoon classes.

Somehow, Satoshi was the only one who felt really exhausted. He kept on battling his drowsiness throughout the entire class, and there were a couple of times when he dozed off.

Fortunately, he wasn\'t caught... or maybe the other teachers just gave him a break since he fought five consecutive times that morning. His exhaustion was understandable, and that\'s probably why no one bothered to be strict with him in the afternoon.

The sun was slowly dipping on the horizon when classes came to an end. The usual school bell rang throughout the entire school, marking the end of the day. A couple of minutes later, students started pouring from the entrance to the school, and the once-empty school grounds were once again filled with people.

"Oi~ Satoshi," Emma called out to him as he finally dozed off after classes. Hiroshi and the other guys made a beeline to the cafeteria and the other girls had to go to the restroom, that\'s why Emma and Satoshi were the only ones left in the classroom.

Satoshi stirred a little bit, but he didn\'t wake up. Instead, he subconsciously turned her head around to avoid the sunlight which was hitting him through the window.

"Oi~ wake up, Satoshi, you can continue your nap at home," Emma repeated, lightly slapping him on the cheek.

But Satoshi just won\'t wake up. And at this point, she felt bad about waking him up after the exhausting morning he just had.

"Oiii~" Emma whispered softer than normal before inching closer to Satoshi.

Since she felt bad about waking him up, she just grabbed the arm and used her superpower, portal creation.

"All right," She muttered, teleporting Satoshi straight into his room.

Fwooom~!

It was instant, and Satoshi didn\'t even feel the transition. As for Emma, she was quite proud of her own work. Their teleportation didn\'t even make any sound, so the Midoriyama Duo wasn\'t alerted by their arrival.

(Well, the two of them were actually alerted since they could sense the use of superpowers thanks to their enhanced senses. But they immediately recognized Emma and Satoshi\'s signatures so they didn\'t rush towards the second floor to Satoshi\'s room.)

Feeling the comfortable mattress on his back, Satoshi rolled over to his side twice before exhaling. He didn\'t wake up at all, falling deeper into sleep.

"Wait, I didn\'t tell anyone about—" Emma muttered to herself, realizing that the two of them left without giving the rest of their classmates a heads up. But then again, it\'s not like they needed to say goodbye. The only problem was the school bus that was expecting them.

Before then, she had to tell Satoshi\'s parents of their arrival, otherwise, they might end up worrying.

"Well... let\'s think about that later yawn~" Emma let out as she slowly crawled up Satoshi\'s bed. She too felt sleepy, and the bed was more than tempting for her liking.

Without waking Satoshi up, she positioned herself just beside Satoshi, making sure that there was some space between them. She also turned on the air conditioner so Satoshi would feel even more comfortable.

"Oyasumiii~" Emma weakly greeted before she too fell into slumber.
