[Izuku moves to rest the top of the broadsword on the ground for a moment. Taking some time to listen before diving deep into some testing and training with a sword like this.]

Nanaki-san...

[Wait- He's over fifty years old?? Better not ask about that one. That's kind of amazing...]

I think one of the first lessons we learn from heroes is that sometimes doing the right thing means leaving a story behind that might not have all the right details... Sometimes there isn't time between trying to protect who's important and stopping the danger and telling others what you need to do. I guess... Sometimes it's better to do what's right first. Even if it costs a lot.

[He smiles at Nanaki.]

I'm happy that you found out the truth. I think your father would be a hero in our culture just like he was for you and your tribe.
