Seven over Seven for Seven

"Who is this crazy boy?"

"What is he saying?"

"This Seven guy is running psycho..."

"The teachers will send him flying any moment."

But, no. The teachers didn't do anything to the boy. It was like they weren't surprised to witness something like this. If nothing, they actually want to see what power this boy possesses that got him talking trash in this manner.

"What do you think we should do, Hunter?"

"Be calm Al. Let's see what he's got first. This test alone will determine his level of punishment. If he's not worth it, the council will punish his accordingly, not me. If he is worth it, well his punishment might just be reduced a little." Hunter Man said calmly as he signaled to the third year student to rebuild the blocks.

The fine dusts from earlier (thanks to Jade) started forming again, solidifying till all seven blocks were complete. How the Earth quirk third-year boy, Ethan, manages to get the same shape and thickness without fail was what no one knows. He could continue smashing and rebuilding the blocks till the next day and it will always be the same every time he rebuilds.

"QUIRK STRENGTH TEST. BEGIN!" Mrs Black yelled. "You better live up to your bragging, or you're gonna regret this day," she said under her breath.

[START]

Seven Howell pocketed his left hand and walked majestically to the thick slabs. He didn't stop at the boundary line, so everyone thought his quirk can't be propelled out of him. A few in inches from reaching the first wall, he stopped. Then, he started scratching his head, lost in thought.

"How should I even do this? Should I...?"

He was the one asking himself but it seems he already decided what to do even before asking. Seven stretched his free right hand out at the brown wall. Then, he bent both his middle finger and his thumb finger, so that the thumb was over the middle finger in a tight hold. Then, as if he was playing with a bottle top... He flicked his middle finger free and made it hit the wall.

And just like that, with a thundering crash, the whole of the seven walls toppled backwards and turned into dust. As if that wasn't enough, the dusts were swept completely off the other end of the stage by a fierce wind.

The silence that followed this cocky display of power was so deafening.

Everybody's mouth was open but they couldn't say a word. A girl from the first-years collapsed while hyperventilating as she couldn't breath properly after what she saw.

Lam and Leo standing at the back couldn't believe their eyes either. "What in the seven windy hell of seven damn stars in seven damn galaxies did I just see?" Leo worded silently in utter bafflement.

"These people are so scary, Leo. I need my mommy. You can't protect me from these monsters, Leo. Only my mom can. I need my mommyyyy," Lam cried.

"And what will your mom protect you with against this lean beast?" Leo asked.

"You really don't know her. She has a powerful quirk which is Slippers control. She once killed to Xollante beast with one fling. I really need my mommy."

Leo only laughed at Lam's humour, even when it looked like he wasn't joking.

The silence was going on for long and it was getting eerie. So, Seven had to break the silence himself. Even the display board didn't bring any information on the test. It was as if it was shocked as well.

"Well, don't be too stunned, fellow quirkers. I've only managed to train myself properly instead of bullying the weak with my powers like Jade.

These teachers don't have this idea, but you don't always have to strain your whole body, trying to propel your quirk. It only limits the use of other body parts. I didn't do much, I only concentrated my wind quirk into my middle finger and let it all out at an amazing speed. Of course that lame wall stood no chance. Haha."

Suddenly, it turned as if the students who were hypnotized before has been released by his voice. The hall's foundation shook as the students howled and yelled and discussed in fast tones...

"Really, how cocky can he get?"

"That was supposed to beat an S-Rank."

"This boy is an Avenger already, tell me nothing."

"Didn't he just got back from Luxus? How did he get so strong?"

"I'm about to faint the second time, someone hold me."

"Oh my ancestors."

That was when the display board flashed...

[SEVEN HOWELL: S-RANK QUIRK STRENGTH]

[SEVEN HOWELL HAS EQUALLED JADEN MORNINGBOLT'S QUIRK STRENGTH FOR FIRST-YEARS]

"Well, that wasn't supposed to equal Jade's. If the limit was more than S, I'm sure this boy will have shattered them all."

Mrs Black walked slowly to the stage, and from the way she announced the second test, it was obvious that she was shook to the bones as well. "SECOND TEST... A...ACCURACY TEST."

The stage was again cleared and the targets started moving left and right.

Seven bent low a little and brought his hands to the ground. When he raised them up again, a spear shape was formed from thin air. It was straight and long with a very sharp point, and above all, it was made up entirely of rolling wind carefully crafted into a spear shape.

"This does not even seem normal any more. How can a first year student conjure up actual weapons with his quirk?"

"I thought I've seen it all, boy."

Seven then positioned himself in front of the targets. "Here's what I'll tell you bullies, especially Jade and the other notorious bullies who thought the weak are play things... You can never get to your best if your play things are the weak..."

The wind spear whistled fast past Seven and hit the first target and went the other side. It came whistling back and hit the second target from the back without Seven moving an inch to control it.

"See, see. Now, he's using his mind to control the spear. Man, this is a premium show that came out free for today."

"I'll tell my kids that this is the real Xollante. What in the world?"

The targets picked speed to the intermediate level but Seven was unfazed. He speared the first one and turned towards the crowd.

"Can't you see what we really need, you fools? Do you think beating your fellow earthling who is weak will get you stronger? What are you trying to prove? Most of you couldn't even get a quirk on Luxus, but your rich family had to cover for you by buying specific quirks for you. Are you then supposed to use them on someone who got the quirk in a fair manner?

Of course, he's weaker than you, so what? When the Xollante race starts this war again, do you think they will care if you can beat a bunch of bullies? Have you heard how vicious they are? Will they pardon you because they think your family is rich enough to buy quirks? Man, you lot are so damn stupid!"

The spear went at a crazy speed around the targets, making holes in their heads and coming out the other side.

The speed got to the advanced level, but Seven wasn't wasting any more time. Without wasting a single breath, he broke all targets with the wind spear and pocketed his hands both to pose in front of the crowd.

[SEVEN HOWELL: S-RANK ACCURACY]

[A NEW FIRST-YEAR RECORD HAS BEEN SET FOR ACCURACY TEST]

"Well, I'm not even surprised any more. I'll just conclude that he's not human."

"But this Seven guy is making sense though. We need to stop focusing on the weak and start focusing on ourselves."

"Do you. Let me do me."

"...AGILITY TEST!"

one step to the right, two to the left. A low bend... A slight parry... A little stunt... A body twist... another low bend... And a phantom evasion, and Seven dodged every arrows aimed at him by the bots.

"Did he just go through that last arrow?"

"Yes, boy. It's called phantom evasion. One of the Avengers was famous for that skill."

"And how did this fresh student get to learn that?"

"How would I know?"

[SEVEN HOWELL: S-RANK AGILITY]

[NEW FIRST-YEAR RECORD FOR AGILITY HAS BEEN SET]

[SEVEN HOWELL: S-RANK AVERAGE]

[S-RANK EQUIVALENT TO 7/7]

[ANOTHER FIRST-YEAR RECORD HAS BEEN SET]

[CONGRATULATIONS]

"Sorry teachers, but I don't need a letter on my wrist to define how strong I am. Keep the injection device away.

So, fellow students, here's what I'm going to do... I will walk right down this stage, rub my victory in Jade's face, walk right past the seats and walk out the door... And I'm not stopping there. I'm walking right out of this academy's beautiful gate.

So, so long friends. I have my life to live. I just want to impart a few lessons in the bullies we have here. Wish me luck."

That was when the teachers sprang up from their seats and ran towards Seven.

"Stop him. He can't leave."

"I kinda expected this, but you can't guard me, teachers," Seven said.

Suddenly a fierce wind blew right out of Seven's back and filled the whole space behind him, knocking the teachers back against the wall.

And just like that, Seven Howell did all he said he'd do and stepped out of the hall freely with no one to stop him. The hall went silent again.

As soon as he stepped out, a Blue bubble crashed into the hall through the glass window, and inside the bubble was the boy Leo trapped inside earlier...
