Chapter 41: Chapter 40
The award ceremony was subdued. I can't say I was a particularly popular winner and Bakugou in second place was restrained and losing his shit. Bakugou was screaming and exploding in anger during the whole ceremony. Man, this kid needs therapy. The school also probably needs at least some personality standards. In addition to me and Bakugou are Yaoyorozu and Uraraka. When All Might shows up to give out medals they're both ecstatic. Bakugou fights against All Might awarding him a medal. He gives a kind of generic a congratulatory speech then gives me a gold medal.
I leave as soon as I can to try to avoid the crowds of the audience. It doesn't work well as I still have to swim through enormous mass crowds of people. I really got to hear the full range of public opinions while having them yelled at me. Common ideas are that I'm a cheater, the whole thing was fake, or the competition let me win. I hope this doesn't turn into an actual problem. After making my way through the crowd I head to Yumi at work. SetCo was celebrating when I got there. Apparently, Yumi bet on me and so did the rest of the office. Only Yumi bet on the Quirkless stuff, but I was still a long shot. Yumi's bet of a quirkless student winning every event has made her low-key mega-rich. As the only person to correctly bet on a ridiculous outcome like that she and the office got almost the entirety of the 1st year sports festival pot. By the time I show, no works been done for hours. The impromptu catering at the office quickly turned into a rager. Every single person was hyped on winning hundreds of thousands of yen. It was fun, but they weren't letting a fifteen-year-old get sloshed. So, I spent most of the part people watching my incredibly drunk co-workers. It eventually began to wind down. I helped Yumi home then slept on her couch.
I left the next morning before she got up and went to school. The rest of the class was excitedly talking about the public reactions to their newfound fame. When Aizawa came in he declared that today was an especially important hero class. First, we would be choosing our hero names, and we would be doing that because we would be choosing our first internships today as well. For the first part of class, Midnight came in and helped us choose our names. For my name, I chose Extro: The Ordinary Hero. Which was approved, and was one of the better names anyone came up with. Bakugou tried to get some version of Explosion Murder as his name but kept getting rejected and a few students just used their names. With our names picked Aizawa came back in. He then displayed a chart showing how many internships offers each person got. Three-quarters of the class got no offers or got very few. Modoriya and I got none. The rest of the people who made it to the final tournament got give or take a hundred offers. Todoroki and Bakugou got thousands of offers, and despite getting eliminated in the first round Todorki got more offers than anyone else.
The class goes about complaining about how unfair it is, and how the whole system is a bit bullshit. Which it kind of is. Todoroki got over 4,000 offers I couldn't name over a hundred heroes. These heroes are super-regional and not well known. That would be like a B-movie director only wanting to cast Tom Cruise. Or an unattractive dude so determined to date models that he wouldn't even date an above average 7.
Luckily there is a general list. A list of heroes that volunteer to intern any of UA's students. As we debate and discuss our choices All Might comes in to fetch me and Midoriya. He tells me that principal Nezu wants to see me about an Internship.
I knock on the door to the Principal's office.
"Please come in Hano"
Inside his office, Nezu is sitting behind his desk and on the right side of the room is someone I don't recognize. He's wearing a purple leather jacket and a Black Gi underneath. He has pale skin and thick black smoke instead of hair.
"You wanted to see me, sir"
"Yes. Yes. Please sit down. Now I want to start by saying I'm sorry for the way the sports festival has worked out for you. I hadn't anticipated that the crowd and Heroes would be so unwelcoming. I don't think you've been bothered by it but your performance was entirely legitimate. The entire staff of UA was impressed by your performance. You have proven several times over that you belong to be here and so no matter what outside pressure UA receives we will protect your position here like any other student."
"Thank you that means a lot, sir."
"Now I'm sure you're wondering about who this is and this internship opportunity, so I'll let him explain the opportunity."
The man steps forward extending his hand
"Hello, my name is Shirakumo Oboro and it nice to meet you under better circumstances."
"I'm sorry am I supposed to recognize you?"
"No, I don't think you would" Then smoke started to erupt from his entire body. Purple and black smoke now coalesced into a person's shape and covering the rest of his body. Somehow this guy is Kurogiri. During his body shift, I instinctively took steps away from him.
"How?"
"It was all because of you. That 'glowing red thing' you smashed was part of a mind control quirk that was being used to keep me captive and under their control. After you smashed it I was able to reform my normal body"
"That's great, but I'm not why or how you're offering me an internship"
"Shirakumo is an Alumni of UA who went by the name of Loud Cloud who despite how he came by it now has a wealth of experience with infiltration, stealth combat, and information gathering. After he was free from outside control he returned here to help us dismantle underground criminal organizations. In his former role, he was in charge of personal management and was this privy to sensitive information across several organized from syndicates. This information has helped us in ongoing raids."
"Ok, but wouldn't that kind of program show up in the news?"
"It was deemed as information sensitive to an ongoing investigation"
Well, he's probably not a double agent then out to kill me for revenge. Way too elaborate any teleporter would just teleport and assassinate me.
"Well, then this sounds great. Thank you Loud Cloud I'll intern with you."
"Ha don't worry about it. You came in first you shouldn't have to be borderline forced to accept a single offer."
"Well I've only got the one offer so thank you"
CREATORS' THOUGHTS 
Quilidity
Quilidity Hey, everybody! So, I hope you guys are liking the My Hero Academia section, but all good things must come to an end. Not the story just this section. I normally write about 20 chapters ahead of what I release. Originally I had planned to time skip in the next chapter into the next jump, but I want to hear your opinions. If I see a lot of demand to read the internship arc I'll go back and write it. But that's as far as I'll go into My Hero Academia. At some point, I'll have to skip forward.
