Somehow, the information about All Might teaching at UA has been leaked to the media the next day. Because of that, a sea of reporters could be seen outside of the gate of UA trying to get the latest scoop on the number one hero from various students.
" What's it like learning fro- "
" ... We're from the business course ". And like that, they were gone. Turning to Itsuka and seeing her giving him a thumbs up, he continued his walk with her while mentally cursing whoever gave them the slip, making the trip to school a hassle.
' ... No wonder sensei hates them '
Entering the classroom and seating down, he waited for Aizawa to enter. Sliding the door open, Aizawa entered the class and plopping down a stack of reports on his desk. He said:
" Good work with yesterday's battle training. I've looked over your grades and evaluations ". Seeting his gaze on Bakugou, he started:
" Bakugou " making him flinched at the stern voice.
" Grow up already. Stop wasting your potential. The bar has been raised, I'm sure you know that by now. ".
"... Got it ". Having said that, he turned to his next target.
" Midoriya, you broke your arm again didn't you. ". The green haired boy just lowered his head in shame.
" Learn to control your quirk, just trying isn't going to be enough. You do have potential, assuming you can overcome this. "
" Yes, sensei! ". Satisfied that they got his message, he continued with the evaluations.
" Kendo, Yaoyorozu, you both did well in capturing your targets and completing the objective. ". The two girls blinked in surprise and replied:
" Yes sensei. " trying not to sound too prideful from having their sensei praised them.
" ... And Max, while it is your role as a villain, you should have incapacitated them as soon as you can... But otherwise, good work ". He said in his usual sleepy tone, but Max could feel the pride under it.
" Now, on to homeroom business. Sorry for the sudden announcement, but today... " Pausing in suspense making everyone nervous and Max to let out a small suffering sigh, knowing that he's doing this on purpose.
" You'll pick a class president "
" SUCH A NORMAL SCHOOL ACTIVITY "
Of course, everyone decided that they want to do it, while this was going, Max could be seen with his arms crossed and eyes closed like he didn't want anything to do with this. Feeling some one poking him in the forehead, he opened his eyes to see Itsuka looking at him with a curious expression with her arm also raised.
" You sure don't want the spot? I mean, I know you don't like the spotlight but being it could help you a lot in the future. And you're qualified for the job anyway. ". He shook his head and shrugged.
"... I'm not much of a leader. "
' ... And doing that might give me some unwanted attention... '
" ... And besides... ". Here he gave her a soft look.
" ... You're a better person to lead the class. I'm sure of it. "
' ... And I'll watch over you and make sure NOTHING harms you... '. Hearing him sound so confident in her ( it's Max we're talking about ), she couldn't help but feel butterflies in her stomach.
" Silence! Being a leader is a heavy responsibility. Your ambitions does not equate to ability... The sacred office demands the trust of its constituents. If- "
"... Just vote for the other person. It's not that hard. ". Turning to the back of the class, the rest of class 1A were surprised to find that the quietest person in their class voicing his opinion. Deciding to break the ice, Asui asked the obvious question:
" But Max, we haven't known each other long enough to build any trust. ". Hearing this, he just gave them a bored look.
"... Of course, that's why we're voting based on what we have seen so far. Their performance, behaviour and your own thought on that person. If the elected one doesn't cut the bill, we could always vote again. It's the most logical thing to do. ". His part said, he closed his eyes again. Before adding one last part:
"... Oh, and don't vote for me. Why? Ask sensei ". The class, cleary bewildered, turned to their sleeping teacher and waited for the answer. He opened one eye and let out a tired sigh.
"... Personal career choice " and promptly falling asleep again.
The ending results were... A bit different.
Izuku was the most voted person causing him to be incredibly surprised and Bakugou to be incredibly pissed ( no surprise there ). Momo and Itsuka tied for second place, the two tried to give the position to the other, when that doesn't work, they decided to share it. Soon it was time for lunch.
At the cafeteria, Max could be seen sitting in a table with Momo, Jirou, Kirishima, Mina, Sero and Itsuka. As he was eating his delicious ramen, he was interrupted by a spiky red haired boy.
" Hey dude! How did you get that good at fighting?! Cause that battle match on the other day was freaking MANLY ! And that wall was so awesome looking! ". Getting the attention from the rest of the group, Momo also asked her part.
" Yes Max, how did you manage to fight that well? Even though some of us have prior training, the display of skill you have shown was comparable to a pro hero's skill. And that grey shield, I'm assuming that's your quirk. I must admit that what happened with Bakugou on the first day was a mystery to me until the battle training. If I'm correct, your quirk allows you to create a force field that can block and reflect incoming attacks, right? ". Some of them blinked at the detailed question before nodding, expressing their desire to know. Max just continued slurping his noodles before looking at them and said:
"... I train very hard. And yes. ". Giving his answer, he went back to eating.
' That doesn't answer much ' is the collective thoughts of people there.
" You don't really talk much, do you? " Jirou bluntly asked. And Sero nodded, agreeing with her.
" Yeah dude. If it wasn't for that match, I would have barely noticed you! ". Here, Max had a thoughtful expression on his face before saying:
"... I don't have much to say ". Mina just gave him a mischievous smile before saying in a teasing tone:
" Well, you could start by talking about your love life ". Hearing this, Itsuka choked on her food, causing the table resident to be surprised before giving her knowing looks. Meanwhile, Mina just smiled even wider.
" Oh? Does our class vice rep have a crush on her childhood friend? ". Thinking that Itsuka just had a normal crush on him and making up a cliche scenario, she was definitely shocked when Max just looked at Itsuka and giving her a soft smile.
"... Why yes. We are dating ", Itsuka just blushed, embarrassed that her boyfriend just bluntly announced to their classmates about their relationship.
The group blushed at the newly discovered couple bluntness. Jirou gave him an impressed look and whistled.
" Wow, didn't expect the intimidating cold guy to have a girlfriend already. ".
" Wh-what? Yo-your " before Mina could continue her mini breakdown, the school's alarm went off.
" Security level 3 has been broken. All students! Please evacuate in an orderly fashion. " and chaos was unleashed in the form of panicking students.
" Wait level 3?! What's that?! " Kirishima nervously asked, trying not to get pushed by the other students.
" ... It means, some one got into the school " Max calmly said while enveloping the group in his barrier, protecting them from the waves of people. He then moved towards the windows with the group following him while pushing other people out of the way. Jirou couldn't help but asked:
" Uhm, Max? Where are we heading? ". He gave her a glance before answering.
"... Assessing the situation ". Looking out of the window, they could see a mob of reporters trying to get in.
" The press?! What are they doing here? "
" How did they even get in here? "
" More importantly, why aren't the teachers doing anything about this?! ". Max continued looking at the window while replying:
"... Everything's fine "
" Everything's fine!!! It's just the press!! ". The Iida exit sign appeared just in time, making the group sighed in relief. While the mini disaster was over, Max kept glaring at the window and grimly thought:
'... Tomura... I have a surprise event for you... '
...
" I think Iida's the correct choice for the job "
" I will accept the job then! "
And that concludes the 'ordinary' day for class 1A.
And the beginning of the battle with the evil lurking in the shadows.
