Chapter #13

[ mc p.o.v ]

"our 'freedom' means we can dismiss students as we please,

Welcome to ... the Department of Heroics".

The words spoken by the professor were not well accepted by the students, they were incredulous and indignant and started bombarding the professor with their laments

"The one who ranks last ... gets expelled?"

"This is our first day here! But even if it weren't ... that's too unreasonable!"

" so one of us will leave? That's not fair, all of us passed the exam to be here"

The hero without caring about the indignant students threw his hands to his hair covering half of his face and said

"Japan is full of unreasonable, it's our job as heroes to reverse it all, and restore reason.

If you were counting on friendly chat at McDonald's after school that's bad

From now on your life in U.A. will be full of hardships, one after the other

I expect you to overcome these trials and climb to the top

This is PLUS ULTRA"

The teacher's harsh words ignited a fire in the hearts of the students even though many were nervous, especially broccoli mc who could fill a pool of sweat at this point

After this 'baptism' everyone is ready and prepared to start the physical activities

"Now then it's time to step up to the plate, we will start the 50m dash

All students called went to track starting spots and prepared for the race

After several rounds it was my turn to go to the track field

I coated my body with electricity to increase my speed and ran to the finish line

[2.56s]

The machine responsible for recording the final time indicated my result

I was first with four eye Iida second with 3.04s

[ Aizawa p.o.v ]

Watching Tenya Iida sprint the only thing that came to my mind was that he was in his element

What he will do in the other trials that interests me, to see how densely developed his quirks are and if he has a flexible enough mind to use his quirks creatively to overcome the obstacles that lie ahead

Several rounds have passed and I admit that there are many interesting students this year, some very good but some very disappointing

At the end of several trials we finally get to the last one, the softball pitch

And it's the turn of the boy who is in last place and who I'm going to kick out

There is nothing special about him, in all the trials he didn't use his quirk in any of the trials otherwise he would have been lying on the ground with his limbs broken

He looks nervous as he walks to the circle, the other students could not contain themselves and decided to speak what they had in mind

"Midorya's not doing too well, is he?"

Said Tenya Iida

"Of course not!!! He is quirkcless fucking guppy!!!"

Bakugou said

"Quirkless? Didn't you see what he did at the entrance exam?"

"Haah?"

Meanwhile he prepared to throw the ball but the ball didn't pass 46 meters

I didn't let him, I erased it otherwise He would probably get a broken arm after using his quirk exactly like the entrance exam

"46 meters"

"U-Uhh? I-I'm sure I used it, just now..."

"I erase your quirk, it defies all reason how somebody like you manage to enter this academy"

"Y-you e-erassed? O-Oh my god those goggles! The eraser hero, eraserhead!"

Not wanting to know how the student discovered my identity as an underground hero

"From what I observed...you can't rein on your quirk full power. Meaning you can't use at all without hurting yourself

Did you believe someone would come save you after you crippled yourself again?"

"N-no I-I ..."

Without letting him speak I added

"Whatever hopes you may have nursed of your imminent rescue, you can forget it, nobody will save you

You have the needed courage, but all you will do is run around like a blockhead who needs saving yourself.

Face it, your 'power' won't help you to become a hero, Midoriya Izuku"

He got even more nervous, till the point he is almost crying but his eyes never showed anything more than the will and courage so I decided to give him one more chance

"I gave you back your quirk... try the ball pitch a second time. Let's get this over with"

He is percistent. He's not backing out from dying out here or will simply wither and settle for last place

Whichever way he goes he doesn't have a chance

He start the moviment motion and throw the ball

Will he do the same from earlier?

Wait

This time it's different, he didn't use the quirk on his whole arm but only on his index finger

The ball flew away, and he was fine with his arm still in one piece but with a broken finger

He didn't use all his power, he concentrated it on his finger

Good judgment and adaptation in the situation and good flexibility of thought, interesting...

I looked at the counter

[705.3m]

"Sensei, I-I can still move!"

Without realizing it a smile formed on my face
