If I remembered correctly Midoriya had 10 months to train for the entrance exam.
So why am I getting a quest icon saying 2 weeks?
Quest received!
[Pass the entrance exam.]
Objective: Pass the entrance exam in 2 weeks to get accepted into U.A!
Reward: Accepted into U.A, Involved in main plot, Protection from [League of villains] , Slight stat boost of choice, 100,000 yen
Failure: Have to find another way into U.A, [League of villains] may approach you
Well I don't see a choice so I can't really say no now can I?
Although the question is what do I do when I get into U.A? Befriend midoriya or stay a lone wolf? It would be useful to have the inheritor of one for all on my side, But it might place me in danger to get too close to him. Eventually he catches the league of villains attention a little too much for my likings.
Pulling the water out of the glass beside me, I muse to myself. I should probably think about choosing if I want a weapon or not. Which I do, They're awesome. Hydromancy won't always be enough to beat my enemies.
A sword...Too used. Maybe a spear? Nah too easy to counter. A scythe maybe? Too dangerous.
Eh I'll figure it out when I get in.
Closing my eyes I feel myself mold into the mattress. God damn I love sleeping, Best feeling in the world.
A knock at the door made me jump out of bed in fright.
God fucking damn it, The second I lay in bed and get relaxed. Someone's at my door.
Walking over i grumbled to myself about who would knock at my door, A quick glance to my clock I can see it's 11pm. Too late to be disturbing me.
"Now what has you coming to my doo-"
Uraraka is at my door.
Door wide open I stare at this girl, Midoriya's love interest.
God damn she looks better in person. Shoulder length hair that's much more wavy then the anime made out, Brown eyes that shined out at me and don't get me started on below her neck.
She must've thought the same for me as she stared at my chest which was eye level with her.
Oh yeah, I currently don't have a shirt on.
"I-I just came to W-Welcome you to the Apartment B-Block. I live d-down the hallway with my m-mom and dad." She stutters as she hands me a watch. "A-And I think t-this was yours. I-it was at reception!"
Slipping my arm behind my door I grabbed a T-shirt laying there and stuck it on just to save the poor girl from embarrassment. Reaching out I take the watch she presented me, A nice simple watch. Slinking it onto my arm I look back at Uraraka.
"Do you wanna come in?" I asked as nice as I could. To be honest, I was just trying to lighten the mood I didn't actually want her to come in, And I had guessed she would instantly decline anyways.
"N-No I have to go back home, I-I was just giving you you're w-watch back!"
"That's alright, Names Andres Górm" I took her hand and gave it a light kiss, Risky honestly as if the situations were reversed I'd probably be as red, Or even worse then her. "Nice to meet you."
I watched her face turn as red as a tomato in a split second. If it turned anymore scarlet I would've expected her to burst a vein,And I swear I saw some steam come out of her ears.
"M-M-My name's Ochako U-U-Uraraka, P-Pleasure to meet you A-Andres" She bowed down in front of me at possibly the speed of light. Any faster and her head would've came flying off her neck.
I shot her a light smile when she stood back up straight. She's a nice woman. "You're welcome here anytime Uraraka."
10 affection with Ochako Uraraka for being nice and attractive (10/100)
Without even saying anything else besides a fast 'bye!' She ran down the hallway into her apartment, Slamming the door behind her.
Closing my own door I chuckled a little to myself, Sorry midoriya.
I'm taking yo' bitch
"1,2,1,2,1,2"
Letting out quick repeats I go through the drills of boxing. Looking it up on the computer that came with my apartment I find out boxing isn't exactly popular anymore, Seen as an old type of fighting. But I used to practice it in my past life so it was still useful. And it also boosted my strength stat from a D to a C- and my speed from a D to a C- as well.
To improve my endurance stat I have to, well experience some pain and fight through it. Which is gonna be far from enjoyable.
Intelligence I just have to read and learn stuff from the world which isn't the worst. Charisma is improved from me bringing people to my side and manipulating them, And finally luck is improved by going to more worlds and the more events I experience.
And I learned all this from Alfred
Your welcome sir
Thank you Alfred.
It's been 2 days since I met Uraraka and left my impression on her. And I haven't done much since that encounter. After snooping around my apartment I found a wad of money sitting on my counter which I used to buy some food. Along with a phone similar to the ones back in my world.
Apparently this apartment is also owned by me not rented, As Alfred told me it is my 'temporary' Hub at the moment. I can found a permanent hub but I need a certain amount of power and I need to finish my 1st world before I can do that. But I don't even know how long they'll take, No rush.
With 12 days left i have a good bit of time before the exam, I'm not aiming to do the best in the exam just to get into the hero course.
With that in mind I get a quick shower and get changed into something clean, Heading back to the beach through the city.
'Status'
Name: Andres Górm
Class: [Hydromancer] Lvl: 7/100
Rank: Mortal
Alignment: Neutral
Strength: C-
Speed: C-
Endurance: D
Intelligence: C-
Luck: B-
Charisma: C
Slight improvements but an improvement is an improvement. I'm hoping to get Hydromancy to Level 15 or around that before the exam.
Closing my apartment door behind me I swear I saw Uraraka at her door watching me as I walk down the hall, Oh well.
I never realised how similar this Japan is too the one in my past life, The oniy difference is, Well all the people with Powers running around either destroying stuff or destroying eachother.
Rather poetic.
A giant woman steps over me, Blonde hair with a horned mask on her head. She was in the anime if I recall. Mt.lady?
Inside I feel a little tinge of mischief in my body. Probably from the flaws I gained. But something harmless isn't bad right?
With my hand In my pocket I try to reach the water in the fire hydrant, Making it explode open and spray everyone on that side of the road. Shouts of disbelief and annoyance surrounds them as I cackle to myself.
Like I said, Harmless.
The streets of Japan are constantly filled with people, Some looking normal and others mix's of animals or other objects. A woman just walked past me that was solid stone. Literal concrete.
This world gets weirder and weirder.
Finally I reached the beach again and sit down for a minute staring out at the water. It is beautiful, So peaceful. Enough to make me forget about all the things that have recently happened to me.
"Space for another?"
Looking up I feel my heart drop as a man made purely of shadows stands beside me. He was one of the main villains in season 1 however I don't remember his name.
"Sure"
The shadow man sits down beside me, Not too close but close. He has no face,Yellow glowing eyes the only feature I can see on him. He gazes out at the sea like I was mere moments before.
"My name is kurogiri, I saw you sitting here at this beach and thought you seemed awful lonely. Everyone feels lonely sometimes, it's perfectly alright if you are." I could feel my heart beating faster then normal as he spoke to me.
"I'm perfectly fine, kurogiri"
He turned and stared at me,Straight through my soul. I could feel his gaze grabbing my very fabric.
"What is you're name son?"
"Andres"
He turned back and stared out at the sea once again, I followed his example. Wishing not to anger the league of villains. Soon he turned back to me and I felt like he was going to say something to me again.
We were interrupted by his phone ringing.
"I must run Andres. It was nice meeting you. We'll be talking again soon.." Kurogiri stood up and started walking back to the city
"What?" the second I snapped my head back he was gone. Vanished. If I remembered correctly he could create portals which they used to infiltrate high security locations.
I stood up quickly and started walking back to the city, The hair on the back of my neck stood up and I could feel my heart thumping in my head, Like there were eyes everywhere staring at me.
I need to get stronger, And fast if possible. I was a small fish in a large pond. So back to training it is.
And walking through the city I felt like someone was watching me in the shadows.
7 more days till the entrance exam.
I've been back to training hard again, After seeing that the league of villains could quite easily get to me and that they were interested in me, I need to get strong enough to hold my own if they ever forcefully approached me.
Hydromancy is now to level 11. It's getting harder to level the more it goes up but I know it'll be worth it. When I hit level 10 I was able to create my own water to manipulate. But it took considerably more energy then just harnessing it from a source.
Heading to the library I started researching the history of this world. The history is exactly the same as ours, Up until the year 2014 which is when quirks first started appearing. I also learned that the year we are in now is 2148. A long time from which i was originally alive. Researching it is quite interesting. World war 3 did happen, but it was America and Russia throwing people with insane quirks at eachother for 9 years which eventually ended in a stalemate.
Thankfully learning all this brought my intelligence up from C- To C. But it made me think that if there's so many ranks will my stats be the same?
No sir, A Mortal with S strength will not be the same as an enhanced mortal with S strength
So every time I go up a rank my stat rank will go down?
Yes sir
Not that hard to understand, But I can tell this will be annoying in the future.
Sticking my head back in the books of the library I learn that quirks get stronger with each generation, With scientists believing that eventually quirks will get so powerful that they'll kill the people who owns the quirk.
Quite the sad end for a super powered race.
Going to put the book back, I bump into a young woman, A pile of books that must of been in her hands slam onto the floor making quite the ruckus.
"Sorry miss I should've looked where I was going first." I leaned down and started picking up the books. Her leaning down not even a second later. With both of us at work the mess on the floor was soon gone as I handed her the books back.
"It's quite fine" The woman looked up at me and my eyes widened for the third time this week.
It was the smart girl from the anime. I remember her, She was the one taller then midoriya (Which wasn't exactly hard). Her quirk was something that involved creating objects from what I recall.
She must've noticed me musing in my thoughts as she put the stack of books down and put a hand out, Striking me a small smile
"My name is Momo yaoyorozu,May I know yours?"
I could feel my heart skip a beat when she smiled. I wasn't a mess or anything when it came to girls but she has a smile that'd make any man swoon. Composing myself up I shook her hand returned her smile.
"Andres Górm, A pleasure to meet you."
She pulled her hand out of the handshake as did i and cleared her face of any emotion,Looking at the book I had picked out but hadn't had the chance to put back yet.
"You were reading about the history and possible evolution of quirks?"
"I have. I was hoping to get a better understanding of how quirks worked." I met her gaze as she flicked back to looking at me. Her dark grey eyes met my green as hers started to sparkle, Hypnotic.
"And what is your quirk?"
"Ehhhh...Hydromancy" I feel like I could've picked another name for it but it's better to tell the truth.
Even if it isn't actually a quirk.
"Hydromancy? As in the manipulation of water? That's a powerful power to have! Can you control the temperature? Create you're own water? How much water can you control?" As she got closer and closer asking me questions I soon found myself backed into the bookshelf.
"I-I don't exactly know yet to be honest i only recently started using it more." She backed away from me giving me some breathing room, Seeming slightly dissapointed in my answer she took a deep breath.
"And what brought this to start using it more?"
I felt my inner confidence come up with this question. Exactly what I wanted her to ask.
"Because I want to get into U.A. I want to be a hero!" A smile took its place on my face. Which must've influenced her as she started smiling too. Putting her hands on her hips.
"So do i mister! With my quirk I can create anything I want if I know what it's made of!" Even though I already knew most of this news. It's still interesting to hear. The ability to create anything is a power i want to have eventually.
"Quite the quirk to have. Gonna outshine me with that one!"
She lightly hit me in the chest. Which didn't hurt but it felt like we bonded even slightly.
10 Affection with Momo Yaoyorozu for complimenting her and interesting her (10/100)
Thanks for telling me.
She checked her phone and her eyes widened as she picked up the previous stack of books she had put down.
"Sorry for cutting this short Andres but I just must go home! I hope to see you at U.A"
Before I could even get in a goodbye she had ran out of the library at the speed of sound.
God damn, Are all the girls in this world just gorgeous?
2 days till the entrance exam.
I had been training but I had reached a level where I felt I'd be fine with the robots. So I've just been exploring more, Seeing if I can encounter anymore sexy girls or main characters. Well I found one.
The electricity dude.
"So man! You trying for U.A too? I damn am! I'm gonna be a top hero! Even if my quirk makes me go stupid I'll get over it eventually! So what's you're power man!"
I had tried to ignore him, But we had bumped into eachother and he instantly felt as if we were best friends. Sure he was funny to watch in the show but in person? He's so fucking annoying?
"Yes im trying for U.A. I'm sure you'll become a pro hero. My power is Hydromancy."
I answered him as boringly as possible to see if he'd go away. But even the slightest bit of attention makes him stay. But I can't just ignore him!
"Ehhhh, What's hydromancy?" Kaminari's face blanked as he said his sentence, Almost reminding me of what happens to him when he short circuits off his quirk. If he gets into U.A this time I'll be seeing that a lot more often.
"Hydromancy is the creation and manipulation of water."
"Water control? Awesomeeee! We'd make a good duo! Cuz water works good with electricity you know! What do you say man?"
"No"
"Ah man don't be like that! You'll warm up to me!" The Baffoon kept blabbering on and I tried to ignore him. But he must have a secret power. The more he talks the more you want to talk.
"Anyways man I gotta go! I'll see you at U.A!" Even though he is utterly miserable to listen too, I hope I'm put into class 1-A because he is good company, And it'd be funny to see his shenanigans in person.
20 affection with Denki Kamanari for being a good friend (20/100)
What the actual fuck.
Continuing my walk down the street in the part of the city I'd never been to. I saw a location I wasn't planning too.
Midoriya's beach.
Almost spotless, All the trash was in one pile in the far corner. I don't know how he would've done this in 2 weeks but I'm not one to question the game.
Walking onto the sandy beach I heard screams of determination in the far distance. To me it sounded like screams of pure agony, It'd probably be a good idea for me to go over and see if he's still alive.
Midoriya is standing in the middle of the pile. Picking up an entire fridge to stack onto another fridge. His muscles are very clearly defined even from the distance I am at.
"Did you do all this?" I asked him. Watching him freeze up as he heard me behind him talking.
He turned around and I was shocked by his physique. Pure raw muscle. Holy shit. From the increase in stat boost I had gained a bit more muscle but he had me beat in the strength department by far.
"Y-Yes sir." Midoriya said rather nervously, Putting his thumbs together he twirled them around, Which I'm guessing is a habit he has.
"Impressive. I won't lie I heard screaming and I thought someone was in trouble. but after seeing you I can tell no one will be causing you trouble anyways."
5 Affection with Izuku Midoriya for the compliment (5/100)
Midoriya rubbed his head in awkwardness as he mumbled to himself. Something about 'I'm not impressive' or something along the lines of that. Eventually he gained enough composure to speak loudly enough that I could hear him.
"T-Thank you but I have a l-long way if I want to get into U.A"
Midoriya tightened his fist as he finished his sentence. I could feel his determination as he spoke and honestly? I admired it.
"I'm sure you will, And I'll see you there, I'm trying to get in too." His eyes seemed to sparkle as I said this to him, I knew he was desperate for friends and honestly I wouldn't mind a super powered hero in training by my side
Always useful to have the boy with the strongest quirk in the world on my good side.
"I-I'm s-sure you will too! Y-You seem like a-a strong man!" Midoriya exclaimed as he flayed his arms around as fast as he could, Nearly knocking me out in the process.
"Well I wouldn't have been able to clean an entire beach full of trash. So cut yourself some slack."
I wasn't even being sly or anything, I was being serious. I don't think I will ever have the determination he did to clean something on this magnitude.
Midoriya went quiet at my statement, And a slight smile covered his face. My compliment had hopefully left a mark at him.
"Thank you...Eh I don't think you told you're name?"
"Andres Górm. And you are?"
"Izuku Midoriya..But my bullies call me Deku."
"Well I'm not gonna call you Deku, Midoriya. I hope too see you in U.A" Midoriya's smile could blind you if you stared long enough. Almost like staring at the sun.
Walking back the way I came I gave him a wave, Truly he is a good person. Definitely worthy of One for all.
10 Affection with Izuku midoriya for being nice to him (15/100)
Good stuff.
It did cross my mind that maybe I should try get one for all for myself, But even if I don't want Midoriya to have all the glory I still want him to be here. A useful individual I could use in the future.
I've met Kaminari, Midoriya, Yaoyoruzu and Uraraka in the span of the near two weeks I've been here. So that means fitting into U.A will be much easier as I already know some of the people there, But being friends with such a wide range of people is gonna attract the attention of Bakugo who hates Midoriya's guts.
Oh well, I'll deal with that when I get too it.
Exam time.
Walking into U.A is quite an odd feeling. Of course it's just for the entrance exam but I know I'll pass. No way I won't.
I was able to hit my goal of Lvl 15 for Hydromancy, Which was noticeably more difficult then then getting it Lvl 11. But it should be enough for this exam.
Midoriya is gonna need my help in this exam. I realised that after thinking about his results in the show. So before this exam starts I'm going to ask him to team up with me. I don't exactly need it but he will.
Nothing noteworthy happened in the written exam. Except learning that there is gonna be four robots in the exam, ranging from 0-pointers too 3-pointers. And the incident with Midoriya and Some other guy, But that happened in the show. The exam wasn't particularly hard but it was obvious that it was just too see how intelligent you are.
The trouble I had with it was filling out details about me. I don't actually know my birthday or how old I am. Or what my parents quirks were. Actually I don't even know my parents.
So after bullshitting and saying I just turned 16 (which I think is true. I'm definitely more youthful looking then last life) And saying I'm an orphan I squeezed through that part of the exam.
The exam is split into four parts. English (Which I aced) Japanese, Which I didn't realise I'm fluent in, Still didn't do amazing at it though,Maths, Which I didn't exactly do the best in. And then a handful of questions about other topics like geography and history.
I was situated fairly far away from midoriya which was annoying. But when I came in he gave me a friendly wave.
Although I was sat close to someone I knew.
Fucking kaminari.
This absurdly stupid indivual was sat two seats across from me. The person between us, Who must be a background character, Keeps shooting me glances and glares every fucking time denki tries to ask me something or groans about how hard the exam is.
Eventually the written exam was over and I got away from him (For now) And made my way to the second part of the entrance exam.
Turns out luck was on my side as I was put in the same city block as midoriya and a few other characters I recognise from the anime. The dude with tentacles,The guy who shoots a laser out of his stomach. And the guy who has engines on his legs. He was approaching midoriya at record speeds. Probably for the incident in the exam hall, But thankfully I got to him first.
"Yo midoriya,I think we should stick together during this exam." His eyes widened in surprise when I said this and started sputtering about how he wasn't any good but I quickly shut him up.
Thankfully the man with glasses didn't approach Midoriya with me here,But he kept shooting us looks through his glasses which somehow still had that classic smart guy anime tint to them.
We quickly discussed a plan,Informing him that the robots don't necessarily have to be destroyed. And that there is an off button just below the head but above the neck plate. How did I know this? I don't it's just a hunch.
"S-So our plan I-is we use your water quirk to b-bind them while I climb on and turn it off?"
"Exactly that."
"O-Ok I can do that." His eyes sparkled with determination and he tightened his fist, That must be another habit he has seeing as he's done it atleast twice now.
Before I could say anything else I was cut off by the shouts of the pro hero present mic.
"GOOOO!!! THERE'S NO COUNTDOWNS IN REAL LIFE!"
Welp,It's go time.
Trying my best to balance the story with Andres being the main character but also not the center of everything. The plot will be changed with him here but some of the smaller things that happen in the story will more then likely stay the same.
Midoriya may seem a bit less shy in this as Andres didn't come at him hard like some of 1-A did. And kaminari? I just love his character so he's being Andres best friend (Even if he doesn't know it.)
Also the plus sign doesn't work on so when you see D to C- I would've rather'd do D to D plus but it won't let me so.
