Chapter 6: Hero Course


The very next day, the semester truly kicks off.

But unlike the first day's crazy sudden test, the actual first period was… mundane to say the least. The curriculum for the Hero Course is mostly the same as other non-hero schools, with five periods in the morning where normal classes are taught, a lunch break after before the afternoon classes where the actual hero classes officially starts.

As such, for the most of the morning, we're basically normal high school students.

Not to say the classes are boring, but it is jarring to study for the same thing as I did in my previous life when I'm enrolled in a course that teaches us about being superheroes by real Heroes.

Allow me to break it up for you, we have compulsory classes that includes the usual: English, Science, Art, Japanese, Modern Literature, History and Math. Aizawa is teaching us science, physics mostly considering his style of hero work. Japanese and Modern Literature is by Cementoss, who looks like a walking cement block with arms, and his classes are fun especially with him bringing up a few Japanese classics as study material. Midnight, or as I preferred to call her: Nemuri-nee, taught us History and Art which I think a few guys having trouble concentrating due to her… unique costume.

At least that is better than her original one from her debut. Boy, did mom and dad lectured her about that. And for good reasons too, it's borderline nude!

Math is taught by Ectoplasm, and boy is that one's a doozy with the level of calculus being WAY too easy for me. Not to brag or anything, mathematics was and is my best and favorite subject in both this and previous life. I was a Physic Major back then and was on my final year before that trip and death. And in this life, if I want to become a proper hero, it's a necessity.

You see, my quirk may allow my body to move fast, my brain is still processing in the same normal human speed. Which means that a lot of quick movements and adjustments have to already be made and predicted beforehand. To tell the truth, I'm still having some trouble just making the right moves at the right time. Trust me when I say this, it is not easy. It was thanks to dad's guidance that I'm even remotely as good as I am using it nowadays.

And then… there's English, taught by Present Mic.

Not to say he is a bad teacher, but his eccentric personality really doesn't fit that of a teacher at all. Like, At All.

As such of today, being the last class right before lunchbreak.

"Now, who can tell me about the mistake in the following sentence?" He asked, getting mostly silence in return. A few moments passed before he shouts out at the top of his lungs, "ALRIGHT EVERYBODY! GET YOUR HANDS UP! SHOW ME SOME OF THAT HEROIC SPIRIT!"

That got some response with a couple of hands raising up, of Iida, Yaoyorozu and Midoriya. Yaoyorozu got picked and answers the question correctly. Not that it is difficult, it's just a classic grammar mistake.

"Okay, now to-"

Most the class I tuned out as my mind wanders to back to yesterday where Taikou told me about this favor he wanted to ask me.


Yesterday

"So, what is it?" I asked him in the corridor.

"You still have that international translator Tetsu-san made?" He asked, I nodded in response, "Good, I like to borrow it for tomorrow."

"Tomorrow? Why?" Why on earth would he need a translator for?

"Let's put it this way. Heroes help people, right? Well there this classmate that came from overseas that can't really speak Japanese all too well, and then there's this guy who is basically using that missing knowledge to teach her how to swear like a sailor. And seeing as my English is terrible, I thought of you and your brother made that translator so…"

"Ah…" I nodded in understanding, "Is she a redhead?"

"What? That has nothing to do with it!"

"Yeah, yeah, whatever you say." I giggled, "I'll dig it up for you when I get back. No guarantee that it'll be working shape, though."

"That's good enough!"


Lucky for him, that translator gadget still works fine despite being buried in all the prototype junk that has been stored in my room. Wonder who he is giving it to…

"HEY, HEY! PAY ATTENTION, YOU ALL!"

Present Mic's voice echoes and vibrates the air as well as my inner ear canals to my discomfort, breaking me out of my mind wandering as the blonde teacher is staring straight at me with a look of disappointment. "I'm sure you think this is all so boring but they are important for your future as a hero too! Now, Tatsuya-shoujo. Please point out the mistake in this sentence for me!"

I rubbed my ears to try and get rid of the ringing noise as I stood up to answer.


"Never thought that we would get to eat this much for so little of a price…" Taikou noted as he slurps up his curry udon, "Yuuei is quite a school, huh?"

"Definitely." I nodded in agreement.

Once we break for lunch, almost everyone heads straight for the cafeteria. The cafeteria is also run by a Pro Hero, one named Lunch Rush. Although I have to wonder how is he a superhero, you can't deny his food is awesome. I just ordered a simple tendon and already I wanting seconds! Like seriously, how?!

At any rate, once I made it there, I am greeted by Taikou who has two other students from his class with him. One who looks like a silver haired version of Kirishima with the addition of white borders around his eyes, and a blonde girl with two massive antlers and hooves instead of normal feet.

They are Tetsutetsu Tetsutetsu (One heck of name he has, just metal metal metal…) and Tsunotori Pony, his classmates and the overseas student he told me yesterday.

Which bring us to here, with me and three of them eating lunch together.

"Is the translator working well for you, Tsunotori-san?" I asked curiously.

"Yes! I really can't thank you enough, Tatsuya!" She noted with a smile, her hand fidgeting with the choker with a speaker around her neck that connects to a hearing device on her right ear, "I've wanted this when I transferred to Japan, but I couldn't find one in time."

"It is damn lucky you found one, huh?" Tetsutetsu noted chomping down on his gyudon, "But that must have cost you a fortune. I've heard they are selling at least 100 000yen a piece!"

"Nah, it's nothing." I assure him, "Besides, that there is the original prototype so it's very limited in function. But if it's just English to Japanese and vice versa, it's plenty."

"Prototype?! Wait, don't tell me you made this!"

"It's her brother's actually." Taikou pointed out, "One of the many things he made during high school, I believe…"

"Man, that is wicked…!" Tetsutetsu noted, "You brother must have been one heck of an engineer!"

"You could say that." I smiled as I took another bite at my tempura. Oh, fish~! "So, how was the classes?"

"A lot mundane than I thought…" He stated with a sigh, "I mean, I don't get what is Literature going to help us become heroes?"

"And your homeroom teacher, Aizawa was it?" Taikou noted, "When I heard Eraserhead is going to be teaching us Science, I did not expect him to be that gruffy-looking. But you got to admit, he's definitely a professional through and through. Wonder how he ended up teaching here?"

"Present Mic classes were… interesting to say the least." Tsunotori noted.

"But then History class…" My childhood friend shudders, "I really hope Vlad-sensei let us change seats. Just sitting in front of Mineta is a horrifying experience."

"Is he that bad?" I asked curiously, "This Mineta guy, I mean."

"The worst!" Taikou groaned, "He's like the hormones of horny teenage boys personified! You would not believe the eyes he is making looking at Midnight! I can feel his gaze!"

"Y-Yikes…" Guess there always will have boys like that in High School…


Soon, lunch hour is over and we all return back to our respective classes, where we awaited our most anticipated class of the day. The very class the reason we signed up for the Hero Course to begin with. Here we are, anxiously waiting in our seats for the teacher to finally arrive to start our first basic hero studies and the class excitement is slowly and steadily building up and is right about to burst open!

And just as the excitement is about to blow over…

"I AM–!"

The door slams opened and–

"–COMING THROUGH THE DOOR LIKE A NORMAL PERSON!"

All Might of all people flung himself into the room.

"Holy shit, it's ALL MIGHT!" "Incredible, is he really going to be teaching us?!"

All Might, the Symbol of Peace, the icon of the Hero world, the living legend himself! Throughout my whole life, his name became a synonymous with the word Hero, to a point that when people think of the word hero, All Might is probably the first thing that comes to mind. There's no doubt the influence his very presence has on the world at large, with the amount of publicity and media coverage one gets if they are even near him for a fraction of a second.

And I can see why. His large intimating yet warm muscular form, his bright unwavering smile with perfect cheekbones, and not to mention the sheer overwhelming presence he has just by coming into the room and standing in front of the class, it's indescribable!

Though his costume for today looks a little tacky for someone called the Symbol of Peace. I mean, the solid red isn't doing him any favors, not to mention the cheesy cape he is wearing.

"Hero Basic Training!" He proclaimed with his movements both exaggerated yet fitting, bombastic and full of energy, "The class that will put you through all sorts of special training to mold you into Heroes!" And with an energetic pose, he shows to us a card in his hand, one that reads out the word [Battle]. "With that said, today's activity will be this! Battle Training!" With that loud proclamation, he keeps the card and took out a clicker from his utility belt. "And for that, you need these!"

He then clicks on it. From the wall opposite of the door, panels slide out revealing several metallic briefcases numbered from 1 to 20. "In accordance with the 'Quirk Registry' and the special request forms you filled out before being admitted…"

"""COSTUMES!"""

We all clamper out of our seats in a rush towards the wall to pick out our cases.

"These cases are numbered according to the ranking order from Aizawa-kun's trials yesterday! After you change, come out in ranking order to Training Ground Beta!" All Might tells us with a heroic flair of his cape, striking the most heroic of poses, "Looking good is very important, ladies and gentlemen! Look alive out there! Because from today onwards…"

"You're all Heroes!"


Marching down the tunnel that leads to Training Ground Beta, I could feel the tension growing from the fact that we are all dressed for one thing and one thing only, Hero Training! Looking around the class, I noticed a lot of different type of hero costumes. From intimidating ones like Bakugou's with his huge grenade bracers, to full practicality like Iida's almost robotic-looking full body armor, to just style choices like Kaminari's leather jacket and headphones or Aoyama's entire outfit in general.

Like, is the whole glittering cape really necessary?

I'm leaning to towards practical with a flair of style in them.

My costume consists of a short-sleeved long-legged white skinsuit that hugged my body and goes up to my neck, with black accents in forms of lines on my sides leading from my ankle up to my ribs and under my sleeves. Over it on my upper half is a red bolero leather jacket with short sleeves tied to the skinsuit's sleeves with a black belt and light blue collar, on my wrists are two black skintight wristbands with white carbon fiber plates sewed into it.

On the bottom half is a pair of long black boots that hugs my legs that has white armor-like pads on my shins and knees with the part behind the knees having a fishnet texture, along with white soles with white pads on the heel portion and a bangle-like armor around my ankles. The boots go all the way up to my thighs that is secured in place by a button and zip combination.

A silver utility belt is clinched around my waist, in them are a few first aid supplies and other stuff I might need on the field. Bandages, band-aids, anti-bacterial spray, disinfectant spray, some painkillers; and a pouch on my right hip that contains most of my batteries I would be using.

And the last piece, a large blue translucent plastic mask that covers my entire face that is held in place by an arc of dark red metallic alloy that resembles headphones, that is light enough to not disrupt me from moving my head and firm enough to not bend about, which has padding on the top and sides close to my ears. The part around my ears is also hollow and empty, protected by a white grate-like design that allows sounds to come in and out.

"Shall we begin, my wards?!" All Might called out once we are all assembled together in the training ground, "It's time for Battle Training!"

"Sensei!" Iida immediately raises his hand up and starts asking, "This appears to be the same field used in the entrance exam. Will we once again be performing cityscape maneuvers?!"

"Nope!" He replied instantly, "You'll be moving on to step two: Indoor Anti-Personnel Battle Training!" Seeing our confusion, he goes on further to explain, "Villains are most commonly seen outdoors, but statistically speaking, the most heinous villains are more likely to appear indoors. Between confinement, house arrest, and black-market deals, in this hero-filled society of ours, the cleverest villains out there lurk in the shadows!"

"Now, you'll now be split into Villain teams and Hero teams and face off against each other in two-on-two indoor battles!"

"With no basic training?" Asui asked.

"Practical experience teaches you the basics! The distinction here is that you won't be fighting disposable robots."

"What determines victory?" "Can I just blast everyone away?" "Will you threaten us with expulsion like Aizawa-sensei?" "How do we proceed to divide ourselves into teams?" "How fabulous is my cape~?"

One after another, questions pop up one after another. I mostly kept quiet as it looks like All Might is getting overwhelmed by the amount of questions being presented to him at once. He is a rookie teacher, after all. Dad has the same problems before when he first started, if what I have overheard is correct.

"Okay, okay! One at a time! My quirk isn't Super Hearing!" He tells us, before pulling out a piece of paper from his belt, "Listen up! Here's the deal: The Villains are will be hiding a nuclear weapon in the hideout, and the Heroes have to go in and take care of it! The Heroes will have a limited amount of time to either capture the Villains or secure the weapon. The Villains must either capture the Heroes, or protect the weapon until time is up. And your partners will be decided by…"

From behind his cape, he pulls out an entire lotto box. "Drawing lots!" Okay… where did he-No, wait. Don't go there. That way leads to madness…

"Is that really the best way?!" Iida asked in shock.

"It makes sense." Midoriya being the voice of reason here, "Because Pros often have to team up with other Heroes from multitude of agencies on the spot during emergencies."

"Ah, I see! I apologize for getting ahead of myself! My mistake!"

"It's fine! Let's get on with it then!"

One by one, we all drew our lots and soon we all are paired up with one another. The teams are as follows:

Team A is Midoriya with Uraraka. Team B is Todoroki with Shouji. Team C is Yaoyorozu with Tokoyami. Team D is Bakugou with Iida (Poor guy…). Team E is Ashido with Aoyama. Team F is Koda with Satou. Team G is Jirou with Kaminari. Team H is Asui with Me. Team I is Ojiro and Hagakure (Whose costume I'm not sure if it is lewd because she is literally wearing nothing besides gloves and boots. Not to mention the question of if she is really naked or not). And finally, Team J is Sero with Kirishima.

"Pleasure working with you, Kero." Asui greets me, I replied back with a smile.

"Moving on!" All Might then reaches his hands into two more lotto boxes that have came out of somewhere, "The first match-ups will be…!" He pulls out two balls and reads out, "The Heroes will be Team A! The Villians with be Team D!"

Oh boy, this isn't going to end well. Midoriya and Bakugou aren't exactly on the best of terms, the explosive kid is obviously a bully of his. If he is given the go to literally bash his face in, Bakugou will probably goes overboard just to spite him.

"The Villain Team will go in first!" Our teacher explains, "The timer starts in five minutes, when the Hero Team sneaks in. The rest of us will watch via CCTV!"

With that said, we are ushered into the building where we are supposed to watch the entire match play out.


The first match was… let's just say it is way more intense that it could have been.

The beginning was pretty obvious from the start. Bakugou is way too prideful to work with Iida, add his own animosity against Midoriya and he predictability split off to do his own thing. And that is attack the Hero Team head on, mostly Midoriya.

But I've got to say, Midoriya can really hold his own in a fight. His moves are amateurish, but he definitely knows how to read Bakugou like a book, countering his second attack and even throwing him over him and onto his back. Bad form, but you can't argue with the results.

That changes immediately once Bakugou brought out the big guns, in a literal sense as he actually took out an entire floor of that building using his support item. After that, it was Midoriya who is getting completely pummeled by him, tossing him left and right. Regardless of his prideful and arrogant personality, that guy is definitely at the top of the charts in terms of combat strength. His instinct, quirk, it's on the level of a genius.

On the flip side, Iida's match with Uraraka is much less intense, and somewhat hilarious on how our serious student is trying so hard to out on a villain façade that it came off so forced to the point of freaking villain of the day in the old Tokusatsu shows. Despite that, he has taken measures against Uraraka's quirk of zero gravity which greatly decreases her chances of even passing him. Good move on his part.

The match eventually came to an end when in a final clash with Midoriya and Bakugou, in which the green haired kid uses his quirk at full force for the first time since the entrance exam and punches up, blowing a hole right to the top from the sheer force of his strike. That in turn give Uraraka a chance to distract Iida with a rubble barrage and takes the weapon, winning the match.

That, unlucky, doesn't mean they really won the match.

"The MVP of this match goes to Iida!"

"Iida? Not Midoriya or Ochako? Even though they won?" Asui asked.

"That's right!" All Might confirmed, "Now, does anyone here knows why?"

"I do, All Might-sensei." Yaoyorozu stated, "It's because Iida is the only one that adapted the most to the scenario. From what I saw, Bakugou's every action was motivated by an obvious grudge. And as you mentioned before, sensei, using such destructive attacks indoors are foolish. Midoriya's performance suffers from the same result. Uraraka lost focus halfway through. Not only that, her final attack is way too haphazard. If the nuclear bomb was real, such an attack would prove catastrophic."

"Iida, on the other hand, formed a counter-strategy and he envisioned what the actual struggle would be like. He was only too late in reacting at the very end. The Hero Team only won because this is a training exercise with exploitable constraints."

"…"

"…"

"…"

Damn, Yaoyorozu. That's one heck of a wrap-up. It has stunned everyone silent! Even All Might seems surprised!

"W-Well, Iida is also a bit too stiff, but… yes. That is absolutely correct…"

With that, the battle trial continues in a heartbeat. Next bout was Team B as the Hero Team against Team I as the Villain Team at a different building. And it was over before anyone knows it. For one, Todoroki's quirk is way overpowered for a high school student! With his ice powers, he manages to freeze the entire building in a single moment. From that, taking the weapon is just as easy as walking up to it and touching it.

But damn, does he really have the freeze the whole building? I can feel the chill from here!

"Alright! Next up will be…" All Might reaches into the two ballots, pulling out two more balls, "Team H as the Heroes, and Team J as the Villains!"

I turned to my partner, the frog girl gave a nod in acknowledgement. We have a lot of prep work to do.


Sitting outside, we look over the floor plans provided by All Might. For a simple training exercise, they really went all out in the construction of the buildings. Our building is five stories high, with each floor consists of between 3 to 5 rooms, each room around 10m high and 20m wide and long.

"Looks like we have to search floor by floor, kero." Asui… croaked. I struggle to keep my squeal in check at how cute the way she is talking. I've never thought frogs could be this cute before! "But we don't have much time to search the entire building. Any ideas, Tatsuya-san?"

"Huh? Oh! A-Ahem!" I let out a cough to keep my fawning in check, "In this case, we should split up. I'll head in first by the main entrance and scout out the floors first. Once I find the bomb, I'll radio you and you'll enter from a back entrance. Think you can find some other way in?"

"Kero." She nods (How can she make croaking sounds so cute~?!), "I'll be counting on you, Tatsuya-san."

"Just call me Genko."

"In that case, you can call me Tsuyu-chan."

"Right, Tsuyu-chan." I smiled, "Keep in touch." I put on my helmet-mask and grab a battery from my belt and charges up.

And with a deep breath, I'm off.

I rockets down the hallways, checking every room I passes by. Once one floor is finished with nothing to show for it, I go upstairs and repeat the process. So far, the first three floors are completely empty, void of any signs of people or traps, which is odd considering Sero's quirk of tape from his forearm. They would definitely use it to lay at least some traps, but to see nothing? That's either they lack the time to do so, or they are confident enough to not require traps.

But the moment I reached the fourth floor, things starts to get complicated. I barely manage to stop myself before I nearly run right into the web of tapes right when I climbed up the stairs. Talk about a close call! A few steps late and I'll be all tangled up and ripe for a bashing.

On the bright side, it is confirmed that they are in this floor.

But which room is the question of the day… The tapes are almost everywhere, leaving very little room for people to maneuver. Guess they're going with the barricade tactic here, which is really bad for me as passing through the webs of tape to search the rooms will take way too much time. Time will be over before we find the bomb!

Okay, Genko. Think! What could be used to our advantage here? If indoor is no good, how else can we search?

Then it hit me! All the rooms in this building has windows! And if Asui–I mean…Tsuyu's quirk is frog-related…

I quickly phone in on my transceiver, "Tsuyu-chan, over."

"Receive, Genko-chan."

"Can you climb on walls?"

"I can."

"Good, because I need you to help me search the fourth floor's windows." I tell her, "The hallways are booby-trapped with Sero-san's tapes and I can't move much from where I am."

"Kero. Understand. I'll check it out."

With that, I cut out transmission and waited. They have to be on this floor. The stairs upward aren't trapped, which means that the bomb has to be here. I paced a little, almost anxiously as the waiting time grows longer and longer. Tsuyu… please or please find it…!

"Genko-chan. I found the bomb."

Her sudden transmission nearly startled me but her words brought me much joy. "Where?!"

"Fifth floor, the inner most room from the stairs on the left."

The one right pass all the tape… should have noticed that sooner. But this still changes nothing. I'm still stuck in the tape-filled hallways without a way to even bypass them. What to do… what to do…?

"Genko-chan."

I turned to the voice, from the staircase's window poked out the frog girl's head, "Over here."

"Tsuyu-chan?" Then another idea struck my head, "Tsuyu-chan, how heavy can you lift with your tongue?"

"My limit is 100kg. Why?"

"Then hear me out. I've got a plan."


"They sure are taking their time…" Kirishima noted, "I thought with Tatsuya's speed, they would made it up here by now."

"Maybe the tape got them." Sero stated, "It's pretty hard to miss."

Oh boy, how wrong they are.

As I am currently dangling outside via Tsuyu's tongue.

My plan is a really simple one. With how much tape Sero used to booby trap the hallway, they must not have thought about the windows as a possible entryway. As such, I had Tsuyu hoist me out of the building so that we can infiltrate from the outside via said window.

Although, I've got to admit, being held so high up is kind of freaking me out a little.

"Say, Kirishima. What is with you and Tatsuya yesterday?"

"Huh?"

"Come on, we were there too, you know. When you ask her out and she waves you off?"

"Oh, that. Nothing much, just wanting to treat her to some ramen, that's all."

"Never would have thought you would be into blondes."

"Nah, it's not like that." He tells his partner, "I just owe her one. Thought to try and pay her back somehow."

"But you got admit, she has one hell of a body."

"Come on, man. Don't talk about her like that!"

Okay… this guy talk has gone way too long for my taste.

I motioned to Tsuyu, my hand raised with three fingers shown. She nods as I start counting down.

3…

2…

1!

"KNOCK KNOCK!" With a sharp swing of her tongue, I crash right through the window a good distance away from the bomb and our Villain Team. Preforming a recovering roll, I got back up and rummages my belt for another battery, "Sorry to crash the party!" I clench my fist around it as I charges up.

"Kirishima!"

"Got it!"

The redhead hardens his fists and charges towards me. I dodge his punch and took a running start towards the bomb, only jump out of the way of Sero's tape that nearly caught my foot and leap away from before dodging another swipe from Kirishima's harden hand.

He then launches a rush of punches towards me, I dodging them the best way I could. But unluckily, there's one I couldn't dodge and it slams right into my crossed arm that I manages to put up to guard, skidding me back a few meters. Talk about brute strength! His hardening quirk sure is advantages in a brawl.

Sero then launches a tape right at me, which got me in my arm. I reach out to try and pry the tape off, only to get my other hand taped up as well. "Caught you now, Hero!"

Looking at both tapes and noticing that they are still connected to Sero's arm, an idea popped into my head. I lean back and thrust myself forward towards Sero. He couldn't react in time as I leap and slams both of my feet into his chest, knocking him away and down on the ground.

"Sero!" Kirishima rushes at me, his hand hardens as he swipes it at me. Using this as an opportunity, I jump back, letting the harden hand cut through the tape like a razor. The release of tension nearly cost me my balance as I fumble backwards before regaining my balance just barely in time to duck from a hook from the redhead.

I leap away to gain some distance, raising my hands up in a boxing stance as I feel my charge starting to run out. Kirishima followed suit with a similar stance, Sero getting up and joining him on his side with arms spread out ready to shoot another tape at me.

I skid forward a bit, they following suit. And then, just as Kirishima is about to rush towards me-

"Match over!" All Might's loud boisterous voice echoes from the intercoms, "The Hero Team wins!"

"Wait, what?!" Sero looked around confused, "What do you–?!"

"Kero."

They turned around and saw the reason. Next to the 'bomb', there stood Tsuyu with her hand touching the prop.

"You're the distraction…" He noted in surprise, "And we fell for it."

"Guilty as charged~!" I giggled tearing the tape off, "Brain beats brawn any day."

Allow me explain! Just infiltrating from the window is just the first step of my plan. The very moment I crash into the room, step two officially commence. You see, when I'm engaging both Kirishima and Sero, their attention is fully on me. That allows Tsuyu to sneak in without notice and secure the payload unopposed.

My job is to make sure their attention remains on me long enough for her to reach the bomb, which in the end succeeded!

"Never saw that coming." Kirishima noted with a sigh, "Man, and I thought we had you on the ropes…"

"You actually did." I added on massaging my sore forearm, bruising already starting to appear, "You really pack a punch, Kirishima-san."

"Oh, crap! Is your arm okay?!"

"Nothing's broken. Just a little bruising, is all."

"Man, I never thought you would go through the window…" Sero noted, "How did you even get outside?"

Tsuyu answers by jumping onto the ceiling and sticking there. They both looked up, and nodded in acknowledgement.


"Well done, everyone!" All Might congratulate us as everyone else finishes their match-ups. "No serious injuries, apart from Midoriya-shounen! Great teamwork, though! You all did splendidly, considering this was your first training exercise!"

"You know, coming after Aizawa-sensei, such a straight-forward class is almost kind of a letdown…" Tsuyu points out, we all nodding in response.

"We teachers are free to hold no-nonsense classes if we choose!" The top hero explains, "Now, I'm off to give Midoriya his evaluation! Change out of those costumes and head back to the classroom!"

With that, he rushes off down the tunnel before any of us can say anything. Talk about being in a rush…! What's the emergency, I wonder?

"Genko-chan." Tsuyu walks up to me while everyone else walks back down the tunnel to the lockers, "Are you sure you don't want to get your arm checked out?"

"Nah, it's fine." I assures her, "I'll just rub some cream over it when I get home."

"You sure?" Kirishima chimes in, "It might be best to just check it out."

"It's fine! Relax!" I laughed, punching forward as a demonstration, "See? Nothing broken! You give yourself way too much credit, Kirishima-san."

"If you say so…"

And with that, our first heroic class ended on a high note.

To be continued…


Omake

"…"

"…"

"…"

"…"

"…Okay, seriously, how did this happen?" I asked curiously.

"I think you should know the answer to this by now." Taikou noted.

I looked up at the victim on the tree, "Hey! Are you okay, Shinsou?!"

"Yeah. Just hanging on." He noted.

"Do you seriously have to climb up there?" Taikou asked, "I mean, it's obvious the cat isn't trapped!"

"I know, but I just has to be sure!"

As he said that, the cat he was trying to help meowed as he looks up from the root of the tree.


There! Finished! Quick, aren't I?! So yes, Battle Trials Arc finished in one chapter! Not that it has much to do, anyway.

With that, I thank you for reading this!
