Chapter 24: The Boy Born with Everything
At another entrance, Todoroki and Midoriya were face to face on each side of the wall.
Midoriya was confused, but nervous about the reason he was brought here, only too soon to understand Todoroki's reasoning after their earlier encounter.
"You brought me here, now what?" Asked Midoriya.
Todoroki said nothing and continued glaring at him.
Michiru and Will found them and went over to them.
"We should properly eat soon, the cafeteria's gonna be busy, don't you think?" Asked Midoriya weakly, trying to ease the tension between the two.
Michiru and Will stopped and decided to wait for them to come out, seeing as this could be important somehow, while hiding as not to give themselves away.
Still Todoroki said nothing, which made Midoriya gulp in fear as to what he could want.
He's all cold and intimidation, way different from Katchan. Thought Midoriya.
"I was overwhelmed." Said Todoroki suddenly, now starting to speak.
"And it made me break the promise i made to myself a long time ago." Said Todoroki.
What promise? Asked all three of them in their head, but didn't say out loud in case it could b something important.
Is he talking about his left side? Asked Midoriya as he remembered that Todoroki never once used it, except for that one time during the combat training to melt the ice.
Todoroki looked at his left hand.
"None of the others from both our teams noticed, but i did, the feeling of your true power and it reminded me of All Might." Said Todoroki as he remembered back to the Calvary Battle and the battle between All Might and the Nomu at the U.S.J.
"Oh yeah, okay, is that all?" Asked Midoriya as he was now more nervous then ever.
"I'm saying that the power you have is the same as All Might." Said Todoroki, without even looking away from his hand.
Is he starting to suspect One for All? Asked all three in their heads.
"Midoriya, tell me." Said Todoroki as he put his hand away to glare at Midoriya again.
The three of them tensed up.
No wonder people say you can cut it with a knife. Thought Will.
"Are you really All Might's secret love child or something?" Asked Todoroki with a straight face.
The three of them with a blank.
Michiru and Will barley held in their laughter, wondering how he could say that with a straight face.
Why do i feel like that's going to be a recurring joke for the internet. Thought Michiru.
What is a secret love child anyway? Asked Will.
Am i WHAT?! Yelled Midoriya in his head.
He suddenly remembered Todoroki's declaration of War earlier.
Okay, i can see what he thinks that, as insane as that sounds. Thought Midoriya.
"Well are you?" Asked Todoroki again.
Midroiya gave a mumbling rant that half of doesn't make sense, but it wasn't enough to convince Todoroki otherwise.
"And why would you think that about me?" Asked Midoriya in shock.
"That's not it all is an interesting choice of words, it suggests that there is something between you two that your not suppose to talk about." Said Todoroki.
The tension came back when he said this.
Todoroki looked away.
"My father is the hero Endeavor, you must of heard of him, which means your aware he's the number 2 hero." Said Todoroki.
How he became a hero at all is another question, he's no worse then Bakugo. Thought Will as she remembered reading all the stories about him.
"So if your connected to the Number 1 Hero All Might in some way, that would mean that i have even more reason to beat you." Said Todoroki.
Shirou seemed to be a stand off with the number two hero, the flame hero Endeavor.
He didn't know what his problem was, but the moment the flame hero set eyes on Shirou his glare said it all.
But Shirou wasn't intimidated, he's lived long enough to see the same eyes in different people.
Endeavor had the eyes of a man filled with too much pride and ambition, with a spark of desperation for recognition through his cold soul.
"From all the rumors and news articles I read about you, I don't see what the public is so impressed about." Said Endeavor as he coldly stated, his eyes looking down at Shirou from above the staircase.
"Who said I needed to impress people?" Asked Shirou.
"I'm just doing my duty, I didn't think a higher ranking hero such as yourself would care." Said Shirou.
"Unless something is bothering you of course." Said Shirou as he remained where he stood, leaning his back against a wall.
Endeavor scoffed, his glare sharpened when he talked back.
"It's odd how a pro hero no one has ever heard of makes a sudden appearance as well as having a family who managed to beat my own." Said Endeavor.
"I've worked harder than most heroes, both of you didn't even lift a finger and people are praising you." Said Endeavour.
Shirou raised his eyebrow, questioning Endeavor of his jealousy.
"So that's what you're whining about?" Asked Shirou in disbelief.
"It's not our fault that your son couldn't win." Said Luna, speaking for the first time, not liking how Endeavor on how he was talking to her husband.
"He's using half his power after all." Said Luna.
"Are you implying something?" Asked Endeavor, not liking her tone.
"Maybe, if he's using half his power it must have something to do with you." Replied Shirou as both he and Luna started walking up the stairs, continuing to listen to Endeavor but ignored eye contact.
"That's none of your concern." Said Endeavor.
"Your daughter may be winning now, but my son will come out on top one way or another." Said Endeavor.
"I don't care how good you are but I'm not gonna let you or that little brat of yours get in my way." Said Endeavor.
Shirou stopped in his place, tightening his fist turning back when he sighed deeply towards Endeavor's comment about Michiru.
"No wonder you're the number two hero." Said Shirou, not even bothering to mutter..
"Excuse me?" Asked Endeavor in anger as his eye twitched, Shirou could've sworn he saw the fire across his costume become bigger due to his anger.
But Shirou didn't care, he continued talking to make sure Endeavor got his message.
"Let me make it easy for you, your personality is as shit as your face, both are unbearable." Said Shirou.
"And to think you're a hero too, I feel sorry for your son having to deal with you." Said Shirou with bitterness in his voice.
It felt like a standoff, both heroes glared at one another waiting for the other to make a move, until someone came from behind Shirou and broke it up.
"Ah there you are Ogami!" Yelled All Might, in his muscle form.
"Been looking for you, hello there Endeavor long time no see!" Yelled All Might.
"It's been a while!" Yelled All Might as he gently grabbed Shirou's shoulder while he waved to Endeavor.
He was walking down the hall when he saw the two staring at one another, he knew something was up and boy was he relieved he came just in time.
"All Might." Said Endeavor as his glare towards Shirou changed to All Might, the Symbol of Peace remained joyful and smiled at Endeavor, hoping to ease the previous tensions.
"I see you're getting acquainted with my friend Ogami and his wife here, how about I buy us all a drink?" Asked All Might.
"Gives us a chance to catch up." Said All Might, trying to be friendly.
"Don't bother wasting your time, we're not friends." Said Endeavor as he turned his back from the two heroes, walking down the stairs when All Might suddenly leaped over Endeavor laughing, landing at the same place Shirou had stood just a few feet in front of Endeavor.
"Come now why the cold shoulder?" Asked All Might.
"You should be thrilled, your son is doing well after all." Said All Might.
"You must've taught him well to use only half his power after all!" Yelled All Might.
Endeavor started to become annoyed by All Might, Endeavor had no more interest in dealing with Shirou or Luna's daring comments and refused to hear any of All Might's ridiculous statements.
"Of course you still have no brains as usual, get out of my way." Said Endeavor as he elbowed All Might aside, walking past him and finally down the stairs while Shirou and Luna watched.
All Might answered awkwardly looking down at Endeavor who finally got down the set of stairs looking back at him.
"Just so you know, someday that kid of mine will surpass you." Said Endeavor suddenly.
"He's going through a phase that'll soon put him in his place." Said Endeavor.
"He will be better, and more of a Symbol of Peace than what you'll ever be." Said Endeavor.
"It's why he exists in the first place." Said Endeavor.
All Might and Shirou's chests became heavy, shocked to hear Endeavor have the nerve to declare what he said about even his son.
All Might didn't even have the words to say anything, he felt dumbfounded about Endeavors comment.
Endeavor is trying to surpass me, with his son? Asked All Might in his head.
"That bastard has some nerve." Said Shirou in anger.
All Might was startled by Shirou's bold tone, the wolf hero's arms were crossed, having his eyes still set at where Endeavor was before.
Not even his sharp glare faded away when he continued.
"How the hell is he the number two hero anyway?" Asked Shirou.
"Giving us this bullshit like he owns the place." Said Shirou as he let out a scoff.
"My apologies Ogami, Ordeis, he's not the friendliest but he has gotten the job done to put him where he is." Said All Might.
"But to say what he said, about his own son, think about that All Might." Said Shirou.
"Yes, I know what it means." Said All Might with a glare to Endeavor.
"My old man's ambitious, he aims for the top." Said Todoroki.
That's putting it mildly. Thought Will as everyone pracitally knew Endeavor wanted to be Number 1, it wasn't exacly a secret.
"He used his power to make a name for himself as a hero." Said Todoroki.
"But he was never able to best All Might, the Symbol of Peace is proof of his failure." Said Todoroki.
"He's still at it though, trying to take down All Might, one way or another." Said Todoroki as Midoriya gave a shock look on his face.
"I-I'm not really sure what your getting at." Said Midoriya as he was still confused.
"What are you trying to tell me, Todoroki?" Asked Midoriya.
"Have you ever heard of quirk marriages?" Todoroki asked back.
Midoriya answered back by nodding before Todoroki continued.
"They were arranged marriages, solely to have children with powerful quirks similar to their parents, rather if it was a mix of two quirks or just one." Said Todoroki as he began.
"It became common when quirks first appeared, but became rarer as time went." Said Todoroki.
"My father had plenty of money from being a hero, with it he bought my mother's hand at a quirk marriage, and I was the result." Said Todoroki as he had too many terrible memories of his past, remembering how his father saw Todoroki's siblings as failed creations, but when Todoroki's dual quirk came to him Endeavor put him through harsh training.
Keeping him from a childhood Todoroki should've had, but it made him stressed, he didn't want to go through this.
So i was right, his mother's the one with ice quirk. Thought Will.
"When we found out I had a dual quirk with my mothers ice and his fire, he put me through constant physical training as a child." Said Todoroki.
"It scared me how abusive he was at that age, it even scared my mother." Said Todoroki as he suddenly stopped.
That was when he clenched his left fist, closing his eyes remembering the look his mother had when she saw him that night.
She was terrified, she couldn't bear looking at her abusive husband anymore, not even her own son.
"The last time I saw my mother was when I was still a child." Said Todoroki.
"She was so scared when she saw me one night, before she poured boiling water on my face." Said Todoroki.
All three of them gasped, realizing what that meant about Todoroki's scar.
They felt terrible for what he had been through, but he started to understand why he felt this way, why he was like this even before the festival.
Todoroki was scared for life, as a reminder of the physical pain he felt because of his father, but the hate he had for him.
He actually reminds me of Zuko. Thought Will.
"After that night, I made myself a promise to never use that bastard's power, a promise to never be a tool for his own gain." Said Todoroki.
"That's why i picked a fight with you, it's to show my old man what i'm capable of." Said Todoroki.
"That's why I'm gonna win this festival with only my mothers power, to prove to that bastard that I can do it without his damn fire." Said Todoroki as he turned his back, finishing his discussion, leaving Midoriya in that hallway as Todoroki left to join the others.
Midoriya had no idea what he had been through, he wanted to say something, he wanted to reach out and tell him everything would be okay.
That he shouldn't hold back all his power as a hero, he shouldn't be afraid.
"Your obviously connect to All Might, even if you won't tell me about it." Said Todoroki.
"But no matter how fiercely you come at me in the future, i will defeat using only my right side, i can assure you of that." Said Todoroki without even looking back.
Will gave off a glare.
We'll see about that, if you paired against me, then let's see how you'll feel when you loose. Thought Will.
Midoriya ran after him.
"Hey wait!" Yelled Midoriya.
Todoroki stopped as Midoriya catched up.
"I'm only here because others had supported me, I've been really lucky." Said Midoriya as he held his own hand.
"In fact, i had even more help since i came to U.A." Said Midoriya as he looked at his own hand and remembered all the events from when All Might passed his power on to him and to now.
He then clenched his own hand.
"All Might is always saving people with a smile, he's the greatest hero and i want to be just like him." Said Midoriya.
"In order to do that, i have to be be stronger to become Number 1." Said Midoriya.
Todoroki looked back in shock.
"I know my motivation might seem stupid in comparison to yours, but still i can't loose this either." Said Midoriya.
"I owe it to everyone who supported me to try my best." Said Midoriya.
Todoroki gave a blank look.
"You declared war on me earlier, well right back at you." Said Midoriya as he clenched his fist once more.
"I am going to beat you!" Yelled Midoriya with determination.
They both glared at each other before Todoroki walked away.
Will gave a sigh.
"In compassion towards his speech on Bakugo, that was his better." Said Will.
Michiru looked confused.
"What do you mean?" Asked Michiru, not understanding what she was saying.
"Remember when Midoriya was talking to Bakugo after their combat training?" Will asked back, Michiru nodded in response.
"Well Midoriya practically told Bakugo about One for All." Replied Will.
Michiru was shocked.
"What, but i thought that power was supposed to be a secret!" Yelled Michiru.
"He claims he felt guilty about beating Bakugo like that so he felt that telling him about it would make him feel better, me and All Might scolded him for that." Said Will as she crossed her arms.
Unaware to the others, Bakugo was listening to, shocked by what he heard before he walked away.
Later On
"IT'S TIME TO WAVE YOUR HANDS IN THE AIR FOR OUR UA CONTESTANTS!" Yelled Present Mic.
"SINCE NOT EVERYONE COULD MAKE IT TO THE NEXT FINAL ROUND WE DECIDED TO GIVE THEM A CHANCE TO PARTICIPATE IN SIDE GAMES!" Yelled Present Mic as the some of the U.A. students entered the arena to participate, it may not be the final round but at least they get to have fun.
"AND TO SHOW SOME LOVE, WE BROUGHT SOME OF AMERICA'S BEST CHEERLEADERS IN THE COUNTRY!" Yelled Present Mic.
Present Mic and Aizawa suddenly stopped and looked, realizing another female group joined, realizing something was off.
"WAIT ARE THOSE THE CLASS 1-A GIRLS?"Asked Present Mic in both shock and confusion.
"LOOKS LIKE THEY ARE GOING FULL FAN SERVICE!" Asked Present Mic.
"What on earth are they doing?" Said Aizawa in disbelief.
The Class 1-A girls (except Will and Michiru) were all uncomfortable immediately, because of not just their small but tight cheerleading uniforms, but how they received a few uncomfortable check outs from guys.
"Now that's something worth watching, see Yoarashi?" Asked Kaminari.
"Told you you're missing out." Said Kaminari.
Kaminari and Sero looked on in joy, their plan had worked, even using Yoarashi to help convince the girls and now they got themselves a show to enjoy.
"I can't look, I feel so disgraceful!" Yelled Yoarashi, despite being tempted, he tried to cover his eyes with his own arms.
When he took one look he couldn't take his eyes off their uniform, the fact how their skin made the uniform look tighter made his nose bleed immediately.
"Dammit control yourself!" Yelled Yoarashi.
To bring himself back, he punched himself, struggling to keep composure with a particular image in his head as he walked away in embarrassment.
"Wait you tricked us?!" Yelled Yaoyorozu.
"You jerks, you'll pay for this!" Yelled Yaoyorozu in anger at the trio, falling to her knees feeling dumbfounded.
"What is going on with me I feel so stupid." Said Yaoyorozu.
"How could I fall for their little scheme?" Asked Yaoyorozu in disbelief.
"And what's worse i even made these outfits for us." Said Yaoyorozu.
During lunchtime, Yaoroyozu and Jiro were stopped by the trio, being told that all the girls needed to wear cheerleading uniforms.
And since some of the cheerleaders from America came, along with Yoarashi being one of the trustful friends of their class they believed it.
"It's alright Yaoyorozu." Said Uraraka as she bent down trying to comfort Yaoyorozu.
"I can't believe this crap!" Yelled Jiro as she threw her pom poms down.
"I am so glad we decided to look for Midoriya." Said Michiru as she leaned to Will's ear.
Will nodded in agreement as that could have been them if they didn't look for him.
Before the side games could begin, Midnight announced that the final round would be one on one battles, until there would be the final match for first place.
After she finished explaining the rules, she pulled out a box filled with the 16 names of those that made it to the final round.
There she would have all of them draw names to see who they would face in the next round.
And with that being finished, it was time for the brackets to be set for the finals to soon begin.
"Take a look at the brackets my dears, for these shall be your opponents!" Yelled Midnight.
As the hologram pulled back up, revealing the starting brackets of each battle, with some interesting turnouts that could lead to unexpected challenges.
Bracket 1:
Midoriya vs Shinso
Bracket 2:
Todoroki vs Sero
Bracket 3:
Kaminari vs Yoarashi
Bracket 4:
Kirishima vs Ojiro
Bracket 5:
Kagemori vs Ashido
Bracket 6:
Tokoyami vs Yaoyorozu
Bracket 7:
Ida vs Vandom
Bracket 8:
Bakugo vs Uraraka
So i'm against Ida right from the start, he won't be easy to beat, actually this would be a great time to try a move i made to combat against his speed. Thought Will.
And even if i do beat him, then my next opponent will be Bakugo, and i'm not gonna hold back against that bastard. Thought Will as she was going to enjoy getting revenge for everything Bakugo has done.
Looks like there's some interesting matches ahead of me, but I'm facing Ashido though. Thought Michiru.
She knew this was random, but still seemed interested that she was paired to fight Ashido.
"Good luck Kagemori!" Yelled Ashido.
"You're gonna need it when I beat you!" Yelled Ashido confidently, trying to tease Michiru when she smiled back.
"Keep dreaming Ashido!" Yelled Michiru.
As Ashido jogged to join the rest of their class at the stands, Michiru looked for Tokoyami with hopes to wish him good luck.
She had only seen him moments ago, but was a bit disappointed, seeing him now entering the exit that led back inside the halls.
Tokoyami couldn't help but think to himself about the matches as he walked alone down that hall.
I'll make sure I give it my all against Yaoyorozu, I know when I make it to the next match, I'll be facing Kagemori for sure. Thought Tokoyami.
Though he knew it was wishful thinking as the match ups were random.
It may sound far fetched but I know Ashido won't stand a chance against her. Thought Tokoyami as he knew that in comparison of their powers, Michiru had the advantage.
This'll be my time to prove myself, that I'm stronger. Thought Tokoyami as he rubbed his eyes tiredly, thinking back to when the festival started during the obstacle race.
He recalled when he saw Michiru's sudden glow that made her stand out like a sore thumb, but not even he knew that part about her quirk, how her powers became suddenly enhanced as she sprinted through the mines and took first place.
Was she hiding this from him?
Was what he said to her when they first met a mistake?
So many questions were flooding his mind, he needed some time to clear his head from everything as he went to the small forest just outside the stadium.
He knew for sure it was always the calmest place for him to clear his mind, even after everything that had happened to him before he became this way.
Before his life had changed forever.
Midoriya began to ponder to himself about the upcoming battles.
I'm in the first match and if I'm gonna face Todoroki in the next round, I would have to focus on beating Shinso. Thought Midoriya.
"That is you, Izuku Midoriya right?" Asked Shinso right from beside Midoriya.
Midoriya turned his head when he yelped in surprise.
He recognized the boy the moment he saw him, he was the same purple haired boy that showed up at their class along with the rest of the school to check them out.
Of course he remembered what he had said to them, how if anyone did well they would lose their spot in the hero course, which meant he needed to be careful with this guy.
"It's a pleasure, so are you excited for this?" Asked Shinso, trying to be courteous as Midoriya smiled.
"Oh yes I-" Said Midoriya before his mouth was covered by Ojiro's tail the second he and Yoarashi arrived.
The two of them saw Shinso trying to communicate with Midoriya, and after their experience with him they couldn't take that risk for their classmate.
As Ojiro pulled Midoriya beside him with his tail, Yoarashi stepped across Midoriya as well.
"Not so fast." Said Ojiro.
"You won't talk to him." Said Yoarashi without a smile on his face.
Shinso shrugged and shook it off, walking away from the group as Midoriya was left confused about the two boys' behavior.
"Is everything alright guys?" Asked Midoriya.
"You can't talk to him, it's how he uses his quirk." Replied Ojiro.
Midoriya started to grow concerned, he knew if he wanted to beat Shinso he needed to hear them out.
Todoroki looked at the match ups.
He could be my second match, if the match ups are in my favor, you must advance Midoriya, so i can beat you with one hand. Thought Todoroki.
"Uraraka, who the hell's Uraraka?" Asked Bakugo in confusion.
Uraraka, who was right behind him gasped, although it's unknown if it was because he doesn't know her or that she was facing him.
Bakugo gave off a slasher smile.
Still, once i beat this Uraraka, Vandom could be my next opponent, which means i can get even for her insults. Thought Bakugo.
Hatsume walked up to Ida.
"Hey legs, your Ida right?" Asked Hatsume.
"Correct, I'm Tenya Ida." Said Ida as he introduced himself.
"Ah that's perfect, i have something nice for you!" Yelled Hatsume as her glasses started to shine with excitement.
Soon after, Present Mic started the recreational games.
Time went by as the U.A. students had enjoyed their time participating, while the finalists took time to rest and prepare, some hoping to formulate a strategy based on their opponents abilities while others tried to calm themselves.
When the recreational games finished, Cementoss began creating the small combat arena while fans waited.
The same went for Midoriya as he tried to relax himself, he felt like his heart was pounding out of his chest due to the overwhelming nervousness he felt for his first match.
"Hey!" Yelled a voice.
And the silence was broken by Midoriya's mentor, as he waved to him in his skeletal form.
"I just wanted to say congrats, you've done really well to get this far, especially handling One For All." Said All Might as he smiled, but was met back with a worried look from his successor.
"I don't think so, I imagined the egg in the microwave but I still don't have full control." Said Midoriya.
"It was probably just luck during the Cavalry battle, especially with the help I've had from my friends." Said Midoriya.
That was when he received a slap directly at his face from All Might, who talked back trying to keep the boy's hopes up.
"Jeez kid what happened to being your confident self!" Yelled All Might.
"I'm aware you can't fully control One For All, not even at 100% but it doesn't mean you should give up on the spot." Said All Might.
"You said it yourself, you wanted to be the greatest hero anyone's ever seen." Said All Might.
"So take this from me, if you're faced with a challenge, face it head on with a smile!" Yelled All Might as he changed to his muscle form.
"You must always stand tall even if you're worried, and don't worry, I'll be cheering you on!" Yelled All Might as he was smiling back at his successor after giving words of wisdom.
After he wished Midoriya good luck, the boy turned back and began to walk away.
"ALRIGHT FOLKS THE WAIT IS FINALLY OVER, IT'S TIME FOR THE FINALS TO NOW BEGIN!" Yelled Present Mic.
STARTING WITH OUR FIRST FIGHTERS, IZUKU MIDORIYA OF CLASS 1-A VERSUS HITOSHI SHINSO FROM CLASS 1-B!" Yelled Present Mic.
As the two students approached the ring, Present Mic began to explain the rules.
"THE RULES ARE SIMPLE, IMMOBILIZE YOUR OPPONENT OR FORCE THEM OUT OF THE RING!" Yelled Present Mic.
"AND DON'T BE AFRAID TO GET YOUR HANDS DIRTY, WE GOT A RECOVERY GIRL ON STANDBY!" Yelled Present Mic.
Once Present Mic finished the rules, Cementoss formed a concrete seat with ease as the liquified cement hardened at his will.
"Midnight and I will too be on standby, to ensure that the match doesn't get out of hand." Said Cementoss.
Midoriya sighed in relief, glad to hear that they'll at least be able to make sure no one goes too far as to hurt someone badly.
"So, that means we can not only immobilize but also force our opponent to give up right?" Asked Shinso, catching Midoriya's attention.
"This isn't just a test of physical skill, but also our spirit, if you wanna complete your goal then you can't let what others think bring you down." Said Shinso.
"READY?" Asked Present Mic.
"I don't even know what you see in those guys in your class, the red hair girl is smart, i'll give her credit for that but I just see nothing but idiots for Monkey Boy and Baldy." Said Shinso.
Midoriya began to get frustrated, not just upset over what Shinso was saying but how he had the nerve to call out his classmates.
That would be when he makes the mistake that would soon almost cost him the match.
"BEGIN!" Yelled Present Mic.
"Don't you dare talk about them that way-" Yelled Midoriya, trying to when suddenly it was like he hit an invisible wall.
Everything went blank in his mind as Shinso smiled, Midoriya's body wasn't his own anymore when he stopped running.
"That's it, I win." Said Shinso.
"Dammit, I told him not to say anything!" Yelled Ojiro as he groaned in frustration, growing worried as did Yoarashi.
Crap crap crap that guy did it again, like those guys from the other teams. Thought Yoarashi.
With no one else down there Midoriya's finished! Yelled Yoarashi.
"Wait, was this what happened to all those guys during the Cavalry battle?" Asked Sato with Ojiro and Yoarashi, both nodding.
"Hey hey what's going on, why did he stop?" Asked Michiru, trying to get a closer view with her hawk eyes, even leaning a bit over the railing with hopes of seeing Midoriya's face while her other classmates gasped.
Shirou and All Might may have not been in the same room or even close to one another, but they too were shocked and both worried about Midoriya.
"Can you see anything Kagemori?" Asked Ashido.
"His face looks completely blank, it's like he's in a trance!" Yelled Michiru.
Michiru didn't understand what had happened at that moment, she didn't even know what happened with during the Calvary Battle.
"Oh no Deku!" Yelled Uraraka as she gasped, as did Will and Ida, worried over what's going on after Michiru said.
"WHATS GOING HERE?" Asked Present Mic.
"NOT EVEN A THIRTY SECONDS IN AND MIDORIYA HAS ALREADY STOPPED IN HIS TRACKS!" Yelled Present Mic.
"WILL SHINSO ACTUALLY WIN THIS?" Asked Present Mic.
A/N: Compared to the last chapter, this one was paradise, i took a few days after writing it, i'm actually excited about the final round and i hope you'll enjoy it when the time comes when i write that chapter.
Since Shinso was already in the Hero Course, he had no reason to be harsh towards others and thanks to Will, he didn't need to brainwash them, which made them not forfeit their chances.
