Healing Talks

After a surprisingly solemn ending to the quirk assessment, Ichigo went around introducing himself to everyone except Bakugou, who looked like he was to keep his anger at coming third and his rage at Izuku for 'hiding' his quirk.

Thus as the class changed back into uniforms, the real orientation day began, A senior student Yuyu Haya, led everyone around the campus and its facilities and introduced the campus and showed us where and how to get to them and finally stopped at the canteen.

Ichigo was kind of expecting to see Lunch rush, but he was nowhere to be found.

"Excuse me, Haya-san, But I heard Lunch rush works here? Why is he not here today?"

"Oh! All the staff have the weekends off, only some staff come to the school on weekends and lunch rush doesn't come on weekends, because as he puts it there is no 'Lunch rush' on a weekend"

Ichigo couldn't help but sigh at the terrible pun. Then for the last place of the day she showed them the staffroom. It was here Ichigo spotted something on a shelf where attendance registers were kept. Curious Ichigo opened the attendance register of 1-B to see what changed because of his appearance.

As he looked through the list he found a total of two discrepancies. Number one was Koji Koda was in 1-B, the second was that the mushroom girl Kinoko Komori was not there.

So looking at this, he figured his and Shinso's entrance into U.A caused Mineta and Mushroom girl to be rejected. He sighed and put the book back on the shelf. After that, the orientation day was completed, with Haya-san explaining all the basic rules and regulations of the school and giving them tips.

"Oi, Shinso, you chat with other people and when that is over, go and sit in the car, I have something to do with Recovery girl, I will be a little late."

"Okay."

Then, Ichigo went towards the Nurse's office, he was introduced earlier. Even though he had already gone around the school only once, Ichigo had already memorized the mental map of U.A. His mind arts were useful like that.

As he reached the office he knocked on the door first and said: " Excuse me, May I come in?"

"Yes"

Recovery girl watched the boy in front of her with curiosity a few months back. He had come with Toshniori and his successor, back then when she healed the boy he had an enlightened light in his eyes. It was also then when she asked Toshinori that he told her that the boy was the young genius doctor, but also the one that wrote the pink muscles theory and training methods.

Even though it was restricted to B-class heroes and above as A-class heroes she was able to read it and she found it very enlightening so she was excited to see what such a medical genius could do.

"Good Afternoon Recovery girl. I need your expertise as well as your permission to treat one of your patients."

"Oh? Go on then,"

"Do you remember the last time I came here? It was for Izuku as he had broken his arm using his quirk. When you healed him you said about the nature of your power, that inspired me.

You see, the name of my quirk is Alchemy. I named it that way because it essentially transmutes objects by deconstructing and reconstructing objects. But there is always one constant about Alchemy. It is always based on equivalent exchange. So I cannot make more matter but only change its form with an equal mass.

My inspiration came in when you said you used the patient's stamina to heal. This has caused me to reevaluate if the same can be done using Alchemy and I have succeeded. I have succeeded in my experiments and want you to review them and please decide if this procedure can be applied with minimal side effects to the human body as well."

Recovery girl was shocked at Ichigo's revelation. It seemed that he had fundamentally copied her quirk, no it was even better than her quirk. Her quirk only speeds up recovery, but it can't help with organs that have been lost or cannot heal naturally. But then she remembered what he said about operating on one of her patients.

"You mean to say that you want to operate on Toshinori and restore his damaged lungs and stomach? And where are your experiments?"

"Please wait a minute for my nii-san to bring the experimental subject right away"

Ichigo quickly made Alice send Asato-nii a message to bring the test subjects along with sending him a map to get there.

Within 5 mins Asato-nii came into the room with a huge cage covered with cloth. From the cage, you could hear monkey sounds

"Place it right here Asato-nii and uncover it please, thank you"

"So, these are the three experimental monkeys I brought you. The first one's name is Tom, he had two broken limbs, the second one's name is Tick and he had lost his eyeball, and the third one's name is Harry. He was the one I intentionally injured to simulate All Might's body condition in the sense there is a large part of his lung and his stomach was missing."

"Hmm, I will look into it then. What about the files for ….."

The immediate recovery girl launched into a tirade of questions about what Ichigo did, what the before and after results were, and all the experiments, and the cause of the failure, etc. While talking, even though the recovery girl dismissed some of his ideas which were based on the soul part of healing, he didn't let it get him.

While she couldn't teach him any new techniques per se, his alchemical healing and her quirk were similar enough that she taught him a much more efficient way to heal to maximise the patient's stamina efficiency.

All this time he was banging head trying to find a way to increase the patient's stamina but he never thought of increasing the efficiency of his technique. He immediately made a mental note to fix this type of problem in his mind arts.

After his discussion with Recovery Girl, he was left satisfied with his accomplishments for the day, and on the way to the car, he saw two craters in a wall, wondering what had happened and sat in the car.

"So, is your work with the Nurse over?"

"Yeah, it's done"

"What's your work with the school nurse anyway? You didn't get hurt anywhere right?"

"Pssh! With my control over my body, there was no way I could get hurt. It was about a project of mine."

"Oh! Did you see the crater in the wall, while coming to the car?"

"Oh yeah, So what's that about?"

"It was the explosion kid and the green-haired wimpy kid?"

"Oh? What happened?"

"Apparently, the green-haired wimpy kid hid his quirk from the explosion kid for all these years, so he was pissed at him and started exploding stuff attacking the wimpy but Aizawa-sensei came and stopped the fight with him. Did you know that his eyes can negate quirks?"

"Yeah, His Pro hero name is Eraserhead. He is an underground hero."

"Anyway he stopped them, but Ichigo I think I found the fighting style that will suit me"

"Oh, You mean Aizawa sensei Carbon fibre reinforced capture cloth? Do you want to use it in your fighting?"

"How did you? How do you even know this stuff Ichigo you weren't even there?"

"*Whistling* Anyway, so you want to fight using capturing cloth?"

"Yeah, But I have to ask Aizawa sensei permission to use his style."

"Are you stupid or What?" asked Ichigo with one of his eyebrows raised

"What? Why are you looking at me like that? What did I forget?"

"*Sigh* Shinso you swept the martial arts grandmaster brother for an at best martial arts master. I don't know how you have brain farts sometimes for simple things."

"Oh yeah, I forgot that you were super skilled in martial arts, but you gotta give me leeway, the way you act super relaxed all the time makes me forget that you are such a powerful monster."

"Oh? What is this? Shinso looks like your senses are getting dull. We should start your Tortur-ahem training immediately after going back."

Shinso looked fearfully at Ichigo "Oi, Ichigo you are joking right? Right?"

When Shinso looked at Ichigo's evil smirk, a chill travelled up his spine. He cursed himself for slipping and sighed resignation. Ichigo's training was always a pain. It didn't help that Ichigo took his torture very seriously, he always covered it up quickly but Shinso noticed how he always slipped and almost said torture instead of training.

But Ichigo never took it too far, so he didn't resist in the end. It was like he found the perfect balance to wear him down so that any more training would be unbearable and stopped it right at that spot. Leaving him exhausted and unable to do anymore after which he gave a massage and acupuncture which healed him enough that he could just do his daily chores and work.

Just like that Ichigo Kurosaki's first step into being a Pro- Hero was completed.

The next day was his first day in U.A, the classes started with more mundane subjects like English in the morning.

"Which of these English sentences is wrong?"

Immediately Ichigo could feel the disappointment in the air as all the students sighed about the normalness of the class. Ichigo scoffed in his heart, thinking about how all the students thought that just because you are in the hero course you could skip the normal subjects.

But then again he couldn't blame them, before learning his mind arts he too would have jumped at the chance to skip regular classes, even now he wanted to skip classes just because of a different reason i.e he already knew all the regular subjects.

"Everybody heads up! Let's get this party started!"

"Yeah!" replied Ichigo just as enthusiastically

"Okay! Kurosaki Come on!" said Present Mic, taking Ichigo's enthusiasm that he wanted to answer. Anyway, Ichigo was a native English speaker before reincarnation so that wasn't a problem.

It was always fun to mess with the other students. They still looked baffled at my enthusiastic response to Present Mic and me voluntarily doing stupid things.

They just didn't get that he wanted to do stupid things, cause he knew that the faeces would hit rotary impeller eventually. So it's better to enjoy being stupid when you can so that you don't act stupid when it is the most necessary.

After the regular classes in the morning, there was the lunch break, this time he saw Lunch rush and they were really like gourmet level dishes for reasonable prices. Because the rates were regular rates, which you would get at any street-side stall.

While he also could make meals on this level due to Ma Kensei and Miu Furinji's knowledge but they would take too much time, and why waste time when he could have what he ordered at just a little markup. Considering that he wasn't short of money, he decided to always eat at the canteen.

For lunch, he ordered Garlic Naan with butter chicken and egg fried rice. (A.N What? Don't give me that look. As an Indian, I have to promote our cultural dishes. Otherwise, the community will chase me,). A trivia knowledge you would need to know was that Ichigo's favourite cuisines were Indian, Chinese, Mexican, Italian, American and Japanese, specifically in that order.

After lunch, and it was the period Ichigo was excited about the whole day, The battle training!.
