Chapter 25 - Sports Festival Prelude 1

--Hiroto POV--

[Next Day, Mustafu, Hiroto Residence, Japan]

After the USJ incident, both me and Momo had been called by our parents, to check in on our safety and to see if we had been injured. Nejire too after hearing of the incident called in leave for the next two days, to stay and spend with us.

All three of us just spent our days normally just chilling in our home this time and having a great time and deepening our relationship between us.

Nejire then reminded us, that UA Sports Festival was going to happen in 2 more weeks. So, we started planning about the sports festival.

We spent some time clearing a dungeon for some level ups, and finally my OFA proficiency went to 90%, so now I could easily defeat All Might in his prime and I could now easily say that I could face AFO if he appeared in Kamino arc of the story.

As time passed by two days of holidays were over and Nejire had to go to her Work Studies too and me and Momo had to go to class too.

--Hiroto POV--

[Next Day, UA High School, Class 1-A, Japan]

After we entered the class, there were already many students present, soon both of us took our seat. All of the classmates were talking about how we became famous after we encountered the USJ incident.

Jiro soon voiced her remark in a neutral tone about the news, talking about the USJ incident on the internet, "Yeah. Even the news is talking about the hero course getting attacked, which was able to halt the villains by our Class President taking charge."

Yui nods her head as she agrees with Jiro's words with a simple, "Mm!"

Everyone nodded as Sero wondered out loud with a light shiver of thought, speaking his mind out loud, "Who knows what would have happened if Ren wasn't there to block that warping villain attack? Oh, just thinking about it makes me a bit nervous."

Hearing Sero's comment, the students shivered at the thought, with Kinoko speaking in a nervous tone, "Yeah, Sero-san. I don't even want to think what would've happened if we got warped away… I-I prefer not to think about that… but I guess you guys are right, Ren-san did make a big difference."

*Fwp*

Before the conversation could continue, Aizawa entered through the door he slid through with everyone greeting him, "Morning teacher!"

Aizawa responded in his usual stoic tone, informing the class of the news as he walked inside, chastising Ren, "Moring class. You all did well yesterday. Ren, good job leading the class, but I will expel you next time you don't obey orders. When I tell you to run, run. You're not pro heroes, and students shouldn't have to fight villains in their first years."

Ren nodded his head, understanding as he curtly responded to Aizawa in a neutral tone, "I understand Aizawa-Sensei."

Aizawa shoots a glare at him, but his smile betrays his expression. He turned his attention to the rest of the class as he ominously said, "That'd be true if the fight was over."

This alarmed the class as they began to mutter to themselves what Aizawa meant.

"Our fight?"

"Don't tell me…"

"More villains?!"

But contrary to their thoughts or expectations Aizawa explained in a stoic tone with a cheeky grin on his face breaking the suspense for them, "UA's Sports Festival is fast approaching!"

Nearly the entire student body yelled out loud in a stunned tone, "That's so ordinary!"

This caused the students to exclaim in excitement, with Denki asking Aizawa in a confused tone, "Come on! We just had that villain attack. You sure about this?!"

Aizawa replied to Denki's question as he spoke in a neutral tone, yawning seemingly more tired than usual, "It's necessary to demonstrate that UA's crisis management protocols are sound… that's the thinking. Compared to past years, there'll be five times the police presence. Anyhow, our sports festival is the greatest opportunity you'll get. It's not an event that can be canceled over a few villains. Our sports festival is one of Japan's biggest events! The Olympics were once the world's sports festival. The whole country would be whipped into a frenzy over them. But as you know, that tradition has shrunk in scale to a shell of its former glory… and as far as Japan's concerned, what's taken the place of the Olympics is the UA sports festival!!"

Hearing this, Momo soon spoke in a curious tone, confirming her suspicions of this grand opportunity, "The nation's top heroes will all be watching, they'll be there as scouts!"

Denki gets excited over the news as he speaks, being overconfident in himself, pointing at himself, "They'll be looking to hire us as sidekicks after we graduate. That's how it's done. And a lot of those sidekicks never managed to go solo. They're sidekicks forever."

However, Jiro curtly remarked on Denki in a neutral tone, "That'll be you, Kaminari, you dunce."

Having been emotionally damaged, Aizawa returns to talk to the class in a stern tone, earning their attention and listening intently, "Naturally, you'll gain valuable experience and popularity if a big-name hero picks you up. But your time is limited. Show the pros what you're made of here, and you'll make futures for yourselves. This happens once a year… so you've got 3 chances. If you're hoping to become a hero, this is an event you can't miss!"

Everyone was motivated by hearing Aizawa's words, each with their thoughts on the matter that appeared before them.
