Back in front of the gate, several people looked impatient waiting for Izuku to come out. The gathered teachers did not divert their attention from the gate. Even though they were worried, they didn't show it too much on the surface.

The headmaster also approached the Hunters who looked relaxed despite the situation they were in.

" Hunter-san, how long does a rescue usually take? "

" Well, it depends on how big the dungeon is behind the gate, but it will take at least half an hour to an hour. "

" Can we trust the vice guild master on this? "

" Don't worry, our vice guild master has the best search abilities among us, he will find the child quickly. "

" but it's been more than 30 minutes "

" Yeah, I admit he seemed to take a little too long in there, but I'm sure he has a good reason for that. "

Not long after their conversation ended, a silhouette could be seen from behind the gate. The people there were a little wary of the appearance of the silhouette, but since the Hunters seemed to relax and instead smiled, they lowered their guard.

The silhouette finally revealed his figure. Izuku walked while carrying the unconscious Shinso on his back from the exit gate. He had indeed felt the presence of many people before leaving and took a quick look at his surroundings. He then approached Shimizu and handed Shinso to her.

People who saw them quickly gathered around them. Moreover, the headmaster also immediately approached Izuku.

" vice guild master, how's his condition?"

" He's fine, he's just unconscious from exhaustion. "

" what a relief "

" But, what took you so long leader? if it was you, you should have come out 10 minutes ago. "

" Well, I watched him fight a while before coming back. "

" Aren't you helping him? "

" I could, but he was able to finish his fight all by himself without me helping, I almost didn't do anything while inside. "

" So you're saying it was in vain for you to destroy the gate barrier? "

" Not really, there are still some monsters roaming around, and I can also witness his abilities firsthand. "

" I see, then this child... "

"yes, he has officially become an awakened "

" Then will he also become a Hunter? "

Izuku turned to look at the principal who seemed to look worried. Judging from his question, he seemed to have heard the explanation from Shimizu or perhaps Toya.

" It seems like my colleagues have explained. "

" Yes, more or less "

" As for whether he will become a Hunter or not, the decision is completely in his hands. We can't force him if he doesn't want to. As you know, the work of Hunters risks their lives in the dungeon, I can't force him to do that, even though he is still a high school student. Some guilds might offer him to become a Hunter, but the decision is still up to him. "

The teachers were silent for a moment looking at Izuku. They were a little sad to see Izuku talking about Shinso even though he was still the same age as him. Even his colleagues felt the same way.

" Alright, now that everything is settled, we should take Shinso-kun to the hospital, I'll explain the situation to him when he wakes up. "

" Sure, let's change locations, there's something I also want to discuss with the deputy guild master. "

While the Hunters went to take care of the gate that suddenly appeared. The students were guided back to their respective classes after changing their hero costumes. Each homeroom teacher also came with them leaving the principal to go to the staff office along with All Might.

The students who were already in class gathered in small groups to talk about the gate that suddenly appeared and what happened in their class today.

" Hey, do you think this is okay with the gate appearing at school? "

" I don't think it's a problem, after all, an S-rank Hunter is visiting us, right? "

" You're right, but the class was really fun and a bit tense right? "

" Right, it's rare for us to get raid lessons like this. "

" Moreover, the vice guild master looks quite handsome, doesn't he? "

" Yes, not only that, but he's also friendly, I can't believe he's our age but already that great. Right, Ochako-chan? "

Without paying attention to her friends' conversation, Ochako was lost in her thoughts. She thought about the vice guild leader her friends were talking about, about his performance when facing Izumi and her team.

For some reason, she could feel enormous anger from Izumi who was the opposite of the person she usually knew. The Izumi she knows is a kind, cheerful girl, and makes friends easily with anyone. And when she saw her fight, she couldn't help but think that Izumi looked like Bakugo.

Ochako looked at Izumi who had remained silent since they returned from ground Gamma. Seeing her like that, she became curious about what happened between her and the vice guild master, although she was aware that it might be a sensitive topic for her to ask about.

And before she sank too far into her thoughts, her friends brought her back to her senses by calling her name.

" Ochako-chan? "

" hah?! "

" You are okay? "

" y-yes I'm fine "

" What's wrong with you? We've been calling you for a long time but you didn't listen. "

" Sorry, I just have some things to think about. "

Her friends glanced at Ochako suspiciously, it was unusual for her to think about anything considering how cheerful and sometimes overly enthusiastic she was.

One of her friends, Asui, who was also curious, expressed what she was thinking by directly asking Ochako.

"Ochako-chan, are you thinking about the vice guild master?"

Ochako froze in surprise at Asui's question. Her face quickly turned red even against her will. People looked at her with suspicious eyes as she frantically answered Asui.

" I-I'm thinking about it?! What are you talking about?! no way, no way I do it "

Her friends once again looked at her suspiciously. After being triggered by Asui's question and seeing her panicked response, it increased her friends' suspicions, especially the friend who had pink hair.

" Huh?! Could it be, Ochako-chan, you like it? "

" EH?! No... No... it's not like that. "

" Hm? Don't lie, your reaction tells the truth. "

" Well, I think it's natural, after all, who wouldn't fall in love with that handsome face, especially since he's also kind and friendly, if it were me, I would of course fall in love. "

While the girls were fussing over love matters, the boys looked at them in wonder.

" Hey, what are the girls talking about? "

" It seems like they're talking about the vice guild master. "

" Yeah, that person is surely amazing, but what are they talking about that makes them excited like that? "

" From what I heard, it seems like they were talking about his face "

" hah... of course, seriously it's very nice to have a handsome face "

The boys momentarily snorted when they heard the girls talking about Izuku in front of them. However, before their conversation could continue any longer, the door to their classroom opened and the classroom immediately became quiet the students also sat quietly in their chairs, as if the previous commotion had never happened.

Aizawa glanced briefly at his student who sounded noisy before he arrived and immediately calmed down as soon as the door opened. Because the situation had calmed down, he walked back to the platform in front of the class without paying attention to their stares.

" Okay, because we still have time, we will re-evaluate the match... "

Before he continued, one of his students raised a hand which made him stop his words.

" What's wrong, Ashido? "

" um... is it okay to continue classes like this while a Gate appears at school? "

" No problem, the Hunters have already taken care of it anyway. "

" I see... "

" Since no one will ask again, I'll continue, first, Yagi, what's wrong with you? Putting Bakugo aside, Yagi, what problem do you have with the vice guild master to throw a tantrum like that? "

Hearing her teacher's question, Izumi could only remain silent. She gritted her teeth in annoyance at her helplessness in this situation. Not only did she lose to someone she hated, but she was also scolded by her father and homeroom teacher.

The humiliation she received today was enough to make her bite her lip until it bled. Even so, she still forced herself to answer.

" n-nothing, sensei "

She managed to answer between gritted teeth. Although no one noticed her anger, she hid it by lowering her head.

Aizawa didn't realize it either, he thought Izumi lowered her head because she realized her mistake and felt sorry for it.

" Alright, don't do it again, you are the class president and the student who received the highest score in the entrance exam, please pay attention to your attitude in the future. "

" Yes "

"Next Bakugo, you are the same. How long are you going to act like that, you are also in second place, improve your attitude because you have the potential to become a hero."

" tch, I know "

Apart from the two of them, Aizawa also evaluates all students who make mistakes and tells them to improve themselves.

" You should remember my advice and use the experience you gained from this match for the upcoming sports festival. I've said everything, you can go home. "

Hearing Aizawa allowing them to go home early, the students doubted their ears a little. But then they remembered the gate that suddenly appeared in their school area. This makes bells ring in their heads.

Even so, some still looked unsure, until Iida raised his hand to confirm Aizawa's words.

" Sorry sensei, are we being sent home early because the gate appeared? "

" Yes, that's right, you should go straight home, if any of you dare to go out to play, you should just remember that my punishment is not light. "

" yes "

The students answered in unison, even though they were a little frightened by Aizawa's threat. He also didn't give any further explanation since he also didn't want his student to get close to danger.

" Okay, you can go "

" Thank you, sensei "

After receiving thanks from his students, Aizawa left the classroom, following the teachers who had probably gathered near the gate. The bell indicating it was time to go home immediately rang not long after Aizawa left.

Hearing this bell, the students immediately scattered out of the school, listening to what their teacher had to say. While the students were busy grouping up to go home together, one student was still silent in her seat and did not notice that the class was empty.

Izumi, who had been holding back feelings of humiliation and anger, was unable to bring herself to get up from her chair. In her life, this was the first time she felt so humiliated by one person and was even unable to reciprocate. The hatred she felt for her mortal enemy would never disappear after the humiliation she received today.

But despite her immense hatred, she couldn't understand her father's seemingly sorry attitude towards the person she considered a useless b*st*rd. She got angry at her just for calling him trash even though that's how he was in the eyes of her family.

She was also angry at the fact that the person she hated became so powerful despite how useless he was before, and instead, she became helpless in the face of absolute power that also subdued the number 1 hero even though he had inherited his father's power.

The feelings that were raging in her heart and the negative thoughts that dominated her mind almost made her crazy. She immediately banged her head on the table to get rid of her frustration and swore continuously without caring whether anyone was paying attention or not.

" f*ck "

Back at the Hunters, the principal took Izuku back to the meeting room. While they were having a meeting, Izuku asked his members to go back first and took Shinso with them to the hospital. The principal also asked his teachers and staff to take care of other matters while he spoke with the deputy guild master of Dawn guild.

Izuku and the principal sat with glasses of tea still steaming in front of each of them. The principal was the first to take the cup and drink the tea in it, he also offered Izuku, but he politely refused.

" So headmaster, what do you want to discuss? "

Hearing Izuku's question, the principal then put down his tea cup and looked at him with relaxed eyes.

" This is about the student who was trapped inside the gate earlier. "

Hearing what the headmaster said, Izuku could roughly guess the direction of their conversation. He once again looked at the headmaster who looked like he worried about his eyes.

" So, is there anything else you want to ask about that? "

" Will that kid really become a Hunter? "

Izuku's assumptions were once again right on target, the headmaster still had concerns about his student becoming a Hunter. Izuku considers this natural considering that the person who is his mentor and father figure is always worried about him falling into danger, regardless of how capable he is of facing that danger. He could feel the same was true for the headmaster.

" I understand your concerns, but as I said before, the decision is entirely up to the student. I can only provide understanding to him as an association agent would.

There are indeed punishments for those who don't report their awakening to the association and there will be a call to duty if a dungeon break occurs for each existing Hunter, but that's only for Hunters, awakened people will not be required to be assigned to duty if that happens. "

" I see, so there's still a chance that the kid might not become a Hunter "

" But headmaster, if I'm being honest, after witnessing the student's abilities, I'm sure there will be many guilds who want him since he's a unique ability user. "

" Unique ability user? What does that mean? "

" You probably already know the general class that Hunters have after seeing my colleagues, but there have been several cases of awakened people gaining abilities beyond that, such as the ability to transform into wild animals, or control shadow troops like me.

As far as I know, only a few have abilities like this, especially Shinso-kun's ability to control monsters. If he trains it well, he might be able to clear a dungeon alone. In terms of ability and potential, he is almost on par with other A-rank Hunters "

The principal was silent for a moment after listening to Izuku's additional explanation. Realizing it didn't seem like his worries were easing, Izuku then added to his words.

" But doesn't the school have a rule about students not being allowed to work part-time? "

" Yes, we have those rules, but what I'm worried about is the possibility of the child leaving school and choosing to become a Hunter instead. "

" I see, but why are you thinking that way? "

" Well, how can I not think about it when the example himself is in front of me "

Hearing this Izuku couldn't help but feel like he had been hit on the bullseye. He admitted that he didn't go to school and instead became a Hunter, especially one of the strongest Hunters in his country, it wouldn't be strange if one or two teenagers his age followed in his footsteps.

Izuku slightly avoided the principal's smile which seemed to confirm Izuku's thoughts.

" If I may, vice guild master, could you give our poor students an understanding of how dangerous Hunter's job is? "

" Of course, I will try to convey it "

" Thank you for your understanding, vise guild master"

" You're welcome "
