(Line break here-)
"Well is it possible to hear about the history of that world," Allmight suggested while looking at the host. A few students grumbled at that as the rest were a bit curious and excited to learn more.
"Oh? I'm surprised to hear that," Trepp replied, looking at the number one hero.
"While watching these monsters gives our students a chance to see how unpredictable the world is. We think it would be a good idea to have them understand the world where these monsters come from," Aizawa explained truthfully as the students nodded, some more reluctantly than others.
"I have to admit, I didn't think you'd pick that. Also kinda out of left field if you ask me," Trepp replied with an eyebrow raised.
"You're showing us monsters and creatures of various sizes, shapes and different ways to kill that make tigers seem like newborn puppies. If anything we should have some understanding how they came to be and not freak out every other minute," Aizawa deadpanned with a tired look on his face. With that said, most of the students agreed while a few felt that just watching the monsters would have been better, but said nothing.
"...That's fair," Trepp sighed, almost sounding disappointed. Snapping his fingers, the screen in front flickered for a moment before a bunch of images and videos appeared like on a computer screen. "So what's the first question?" Trepp asked impatiently to the class.
"Sir," Tenya yelled as he raised his hand which a few others copied.
"Just call me Trepp. The sir part is unnecessary," Trepp deadpanned while waving his hand nonchalantly.
"Sir I mean Trepp, how did these monsters come to be? They had to evolve in some way or form," Tenya guessed as he adjusted his glasses.
"An interesting question and a predictable one at that. Well to start, those monsters didn't start by evolving from hundreds of thousands of years of propcreatintion. It was more of humans messing with the natural order of things," Trepp answered
"Messed with the natural order?" Izuku muttered, feeling dread build up inside of his very being.
"I'm kinda lost, what does he mean?" Denki asked, looking at the smarter students for answers.
"I should explain. You see, Long ago there was a civilization which was highly advanced," Trepp explained as an old image of a large stone tower on an island appeared.
The students were taken back by the structure that amazed the students. From the looks of it, the students guessed their school was a small shack by comparison while the teachers whistled at the size.
"Within this civilization, humans made up a portion of the population along with various other races. Sadly it's nothing but ruins now with the walls and the few documents that could be found telling us what it once was," Trepp explained
"Wait, it's nothing but a deserted tower now?" Ururuka gasped in horror.
"That's correct," Trepp answered simply.
"But how can a civilization just be gone? It can't disappear over night," Izuku mumbled.
"Very true, a highly advanced people can't just disappear like that. Something had to make it happen," Shoji stated while staring at the screen.
"That's where it gets complicated and tricky," Trepp sighed sadly as a few more images were shown on screen. All that the students and teachers saw were dragons of various sizes, colors, shapes and species. "This is the start of what was known as "The Dragon War," Trepp announced sadly.
"That sounds badass. Dragons fighting one another," Denki admitted with an excited smile on his face.
"I know. It reminds me of an old music album cover," Jiro commented as she had an strange
"There's more to this war isn't there?" Allmight guessed after he saw the look on their host's face.
Sighing to himself, trepp said, "This war wasn't a normal one caused by two disputing races, lands or tribes. It was a war between civilization and the dragons themselves."
"WHAT?" most of the class yelled
"Why did it happen? How did it happen?" Momo inquired, thinking there had to be a reason behind this.
"Something like this couldn't of happened for no reason," Tenya guessed while readjusting his glasses.
"It Happened because the civilization did one thing that they weren't supposed to do. You see, their relationship with monsters isn't something I consider humane as they used the monsters for things involving defense, harvesting their bones and experimentation," Trepp answered while snarling at the last part.
"T-They did what?" Koda asked, going pale in the process.
"Please tell me you're joking," Izuku begged as his mind wandered back to the USJ incident. More specifically to the Nomu that nearly killed Aizawa.
Trepp didn't say anything as one of the most foul and sickening images came up to everyone's disgust. What everyone saw was a dragon that looked like it was being constructed together as its own body was replaced with wires and mechanical parts. The image itself made a few of the students queasy while the teachers were shocked by this revelation.
"H-How could they do this? What was the point of all of that?" Toru asked as she shook in fear.
"Mainly it was to make advanced weapons that are still used years later," Trepp answered simply with a frown on his face.
"And you had no problem with them using monster parts as weapons. Kinda hypocritical of you," Denki accused while pointing at their host.
"Make no mistake kid, I don't judge the hunters of today for using monster parts to protect themselves but I will never condom monsters or animals being used as experiments like that," Trepp snarled, his eyes glowing a dark icy blue which scared some of them.
"But why?" Koda squeaked, hating to see any animal being used like it
"As i said, the hunters of today are using certain parts and all to protect villages. They also answer to the guild that have rules and regulations that everyone follows. For awhile now, the hunters aren't required to kill and can capture these monsters who will be released later," Trepp answered as he calmed down, "I apologize for that outburst."
"No no, it's cool. I jumped the gun too so sorry," Denki apologized as well, feeling a bit foolish and relieved.
"Let's move on. With all that said, the guild still tries to uncover everything about the civilization to this very day. Little is known to them considering the documents that were save, but they were able to find out about a few key words and plans," Trepp explained
"Like evacuation plans?" Ojiro asked, wanting to know.
"No it's gotta be attack plans or something like that," Mina guessed
"Technically you're not wrong," Trepp answered simply.
"That's the best kind of right," Mina cheered with her arms raised in victory.
"...I like you, Kid," Trepp admitted with a small amused smile on his face. With a snap of his fingers a new image was shown on screen that looked like and over larged barbed spear. "One of the things that they were able to recover were the plans for the some kind of super weapons and some classifications of some monsters," Trepp explained off handedly.
"So that at least gave them an edge or something," Aoyoma guessed.
"Just because they had the notes doesn't mean they were guaranteed victory," Aizawa interrupted, causing the students to quiet down, "There could still be many unknowns they could encounter."
"He's right, It's like knowing how to do something like building a fire and actually making one. It's completely different," Allmight added with the students looking thoughtful.
"Very true as some of the info one monsters weren't all native there but were still catalogued for future reference," Trepp said, showing various images of monsters in quick succession.
"Well at least it'll give them some knowledge on these monsters," Shoto replied, thinking that at least will prepare them on the off chance they run into the monsters.
"Though with that, they also learned of what was dubbed the evil dragon, the one with the hatred of humanity," Trepp said, making everyone shiver.
"I'm afraid to ask, but does it have a name?" Mineta asked, his skin paling in color.
"Yes it does," Trepp answered simply as everyone looked at him. They waited for him to say more with a few growing more annoyed with each passing second.
"Will you tell us the name? I hate this secrecy shit," Bakugo yelled, hating the cryptic bullshit and answers.
"I can but that'll ruin a few things I have planned. Just know that it's one of the most powerful dragons out there and can't be challenged by any normal monster," Trepp said ominously causing a few to wonder who this evil dragon was. Another few images of some villages ranging from tribal ones to traditional japanese ones were shown with an odd crest. "Right now you see the villages, settlements and areas that the hunter's guild manage, maintain and protect. A place where many hunters live drive away threats and uphold the guild's four swords."
"The Hunter's Guild?" Everyone asked, clearly confused.
"Isn't a guild something of a group in those RPG games?" Sato asked while scratching his head.
"Not sure to be honest but this guild is something akin to your hero agencies. Only main difference is that the guilds are scattered and in certain villages. The Guild are the ones that have hunters join and take on dangerous assignments," Trepp answered
"And the four swords? Are they literally carrying them or is it a metaphor?" Momo asked, feeling a bit curious about this guild and maybe learn from it. Something a few other students thought of as well.
The crest they were shown before was enlarged, displaying it more clearly for everyone to see. "What you see here are the four swords, the creed that all hunters follow. If you look at the crest, you'll see four unique symbols."
"Yeah, what about them?" Bakugo asked, not thinking it was important.
"It's a code that all in the guild follow. Going around clockwise, the top symbol means Respect of Nature. To the right, it means Life as a Community. The bottom one means Crafting from Nature. And the last one of the left means Prosperity from Nature," Trepp said as each symbol glowed brighter in order.
Everyone took in the words and pondered on their meaning with the more intelligent understanding what it meant while everyone else got a simple understanding. Even if everyone didn't completely understand it, they could agree it was inspiring.
"You said the guild was similar to our hero agencies? Does that mean they're employed to hunt these monsters?" Allmight asked, curious about the process of the guild.
"It makes sense now that you say it," Tsuyu said.
"That sounds so awesome and manly," Kirishima commented with a grin.
"I can see that's why you were chosen as a teacher. Yes, that's what they do but it's in the form of quests based on a certain criteria," Trepp answered helpfully, showing a few images of a board with flyers and a desk with a couple of girls in uniform.
"They look cute," Denki said, leaning back a bit as Jiro was preparing to strike him just in case.
"They'd be better in something that shows a bit more skin," Mineta muttered, hoping no one heard him. Sadly any higher being decided not to listen to his prayers as Tsuyu hit him with her tongue.
"...Does he ever stop?" Trepp inquired while wondering what he should with the tiny pervert.
"He does it too much but he's harmless," Sato stated as he and the others looked tired about the subject
"I'll…. Take your word for it," Trepp hesitated before showing an image of flyers with various monsters drawn, "Anyways, the quests are mostly posted in these areas for any hunter to partake in if they meet the necessary requirements."
"Please don't tell me it's something dumb," Mina scoffed.
"I'm sure that any requirements are there for a reason," Momo chastised, making the pink girl chuckle nervously.
"And there is a reason unless you want something like this to happen," Trepp advised grimly while pointing at the screen. All the students watched as the images disappeared and was replaced by a video of a large yellow lizard waddling out of a forest. It seemed fairly normal for everyone, thinking this was a simple monster, when the unexpected happened. Everyone watched in some weird sense of horror as the lizard attacked a small dinosaur-like creature and ate it, enlarging it's stomach like a water balloon in the process. "While hunters could die on any quest, the guild makes sure to assign the correct ones to the appropriate hunters."
"That was disgusting," Jiro gagged, feeling like she would throw up if she saw anymore.
"It's why I showed you. The hunters aren't fantasy heroes blessed by gods, aren't always winning or coming out every quest alive. These are people that are risking their lives to protect their homes and everyone in them," Trepp replied seriously as the students thought over his words carefully.
Even the teachers nodded at that, thinking the hunters were doing a heroes job.
"Wait," Izuku yelled while standing up and getting everyone's attention, "How how do the hunters fight these monsters? You said they use arts on the monsters to protect and attack didn't you?"
"That i did," Trepp answered with a smile with images or weapons being shown, "They mainly use these weapons to cripple the monsters."
"So it's like our support items we use to capture villains," Aizawa guessed, looking tired as he usually does.
"I guess but they do have other things that would fit that category more like medicines, mantles, some bombs, and other stuff," Trepp corrected while listing off a couple of things.
A few students were interested in these items and hoped to maybe learn more about them. Especially one ashen blonde in the group.
"And that's the basic knowledge of the world," Trepp annouunced, getting the students to blink.
"You're not gonna tell us about the weapons?" Tokoyomi asked, wondering if there was one he could wield.
"Not this time. I might show you them later on but only when the time is right," Trepp replied cryptically as he wanted to wait till a certain person showed up.
"Damn," a few students grumbled.
"But back to the main reason we're here for, the monsters. And low and behold it's a particular one that suits one of you," Trepp said, making the students eyes widen a little bit.
"Really Monsieur Trepp?" Aoyoma asked, trying to think of the kinds of monsters that could suit them.
"I say what I mean, so now who to pick," Trepp said while gazing at the students thoughtfully.
"Can i go first? I wanna know what'll fit me," Denki said excitedly as he raised his hand.
"Ohh me me. Please pick me," Tooru shouted as she sleeves waved.
"We already saw mine so pick one of the other extras," Bakugo bragged, making a few grumble at his attitude.
"Hate to burst your bubble, but Brachydios wasn't even close to being yours," Trepp admitted causing the explosive teen to snarl at that little tidbit.
"What! That thing was practically tailor made for me," Bakugo yelled
"Trust me on this, the one that'll suit you is even better than Brachydios by a longshot. And you'll love it," Trepp promised
"So you showed us that for no reason other than to scare the crap out of us?" Mineta accused, pointing a finger at their host.
"Oh no, I figured it would be interesting to show Ojiro's first," Trepp admitted casually with said person looking shocked.
"Stupid tail boy getting the cool monster," Bakugo grumbled making a few students snicker behind his back.
"Now for this one, I decided that the lovely Ashido Mina will see a monster that can relate to her," Trepp announced
"Really? This'll be awesome. What is it? What is it?" Mina asked excitedly with a smile on her face.
"The video itself will show two monsters that are similar but different. So prepare yourself as you all bear witness to the cave dwellers of the world, Khezu and Gigginox," Trepp announced with a glint in his eyes.

So I gave a small abridged version on the MH history for this chapter. I know it seems odd but I'm a bit of a noob with the Monster Hunter series, I started in World and currently playing Rise.
So anyways this chapter took longer than I wanted cause of some unexpected family issues but it's finally done. Might not be my A game, though I am happy with it and hopefully you all are as well.
