After a week, on the weekend both me, Momo and Nejire went to Akihabara on a date as we visited and walked around and saw, many anime themed locations and had a great day walking around the place and eating many anime themed snacks and having fun walking around the place.
[U.A. High School, Class 1-A, Japan]
It was already morning, and I felt completely recharged. If I remember correctly, it won't take much for me to face my first villain – hmm. No, it would be villains.
I know in the anime that it would take a day for it to happen. But it's been a few days, and the event hasn't happened yet. I don't know if I changed anything or hasn't happened yet which felt off to me.
Or it could be my paranoia. But other than that, I happened to have other friends outside of Class 1-A. Melissa Shield and my girlfriend Nejire Hado.
Melissa and I text each other during our break time in UA, and we also call one another. From what I heard from her, she was already tinkering with some support items following her dream and Melissa congratulated me for making it to UA.
We were talking about our Hero costumes and everybody thought that mine was flashy, if even the broccoli boy says so, then I know I'm wrong somewhere. But he was still asking some questions about my classmate's Quirks and how he thinks they should improve or incorporate some support gear into them.
I had some I did like and some that were impossible. However, he did have good ideas at the ready. Then Bakugo entered the class.
What I expected was him to talk trash, but to my surprise, he seemed to back off. I wonder if Midoriya shook him or changed his perspective about Quirkless people, considering this school has a no-bullying policy in that regard. It is, after all, the best school in Japan, but then again, everyone here is busy becoming a hero, so there's that.
In no time at all a few more days had passed by, the media began to hound UA like nothing bothered the students. The news that All Might had come to teach at UA shocked the whole country. The media uproar went on for several days.
That was when I saw other members of my classmates were getting bothered answering their questions to the reporters.
"Tell us what the symbol of peace looks like in front of the class!"
"How he looks?! Um… Super muscly!! Yeah!"
"Tell us about All Might the teacher."
"Every day with him is a reminder that I'm enrolled at this preeminent educational institution, beyond…"
"When All Might is… huh?! You're the kid from the sludge incident!!"
"Buzz off."
Seems like Ida, Jiro, and Bakugo are dealing with their issues handling the news reporters. But I was soon called out by one asking in a noisy tone, "What's it like learning from All Might?"
Turning around, I smiled with a calm tone even though my voice wasn't loud, they all heard it as I continued talking while looking at the clock, "I'm sorry but that is all the time I have. I wouldn't want to be late for class after all UA is the best and requires the best out of their teachers and students too."
Then I just went inside as I soon heard the gates shut with Bakugo moving past us ahead. Ida was next to my side, smiling at my answer in a stoic tone, "I have to say Hiroto-kun, that was an excellent answer in handling the reporters."
Jiro even chimed in as I turned my face towards her with a light smile as she agreed with my words in relief, "Whoa Hiroto, I didn't think you were that good under pressure from the reporters. It seemed like you were a pro handling them."
Hearing her compliment, I responded in a neutral tone with a light shrug, having logic in my words as they think upon it as I advise them, "True, but I had some practice. Still, it would be best if you tried to act nice in front of them. Or they might not like you when you become a hero. A working relationship with the press is good. You could have some type of scheduled interview and not have them try and dig into your personal life."
They seemed surprised by my answer as Ida paused considering my choice of words nodding his head in understanding in a stunned tone, "Yes, I see your point Hiroto-san. To think you would think this ahead when dealing with the press…I suppose I should tell this to Midoriya and the others, so that they can respond to the press the same way as you did, Hiroto-san."
After this I took Momo's hand and started walking to the class. It was better to not piss off Aizawa-sensei, so they headed towards the class.
