Kapitel 41: Welcome to Yuuei Hero Course! 2
After being told by his teacher to change into his P.E. uniform and gather on the field, Mineta went to the changing room to change his uniform. He didn't talk with other guys except with Sero and Tokoyami.
While he wanted to know all the people in this class and what their "Quirk" could do, he knew this wasn't the time, considering how Aizawa told them to gather on the field in a hurry. He was curious about what this teacher wanted them to do, but when he saw how carefree this teacher was with his appearance, he thought it would be okay to wear his bomber jacket instead of the school blazer.
Shortly after changing into a P.E. uniform, they walked toward the field and saw Aizawa waiting there.
Still, he wondered what Ibara, Kendo, and Kodai were doing in their class since his class was definitely out of the ordinary.
"A Quirk apprehension test?!"
"Huh? What about the entrance ceremony? Or the guidance counselor?"
The round head girl, whose name was Ochanko, asked in a dumbfounded manner.
"If you want to be heroes, we don't have time for frilly niceties."
Aizawa looked at them with a severe gaze and said, "You all understand the school's reputation for freedom on campus. Well, that "freedom" goes for us, the teachers too."
'Really?'
Mineta wondered whether every teacher was given such freedom and if there was no such thing as a standardized curriculum.
'Is this the best school in the country?'
The wealth of the school aside, he wondered whether he could continue his education after he graduated from Yuuei.
Still, he shook his head and decided to ignore how Aizawa was going to educate them from now on since he knew that being a hero meant becoming a civil servant.
In other words, as long as they got the license, they would receive a good and stable income.
As long as he became a Pro Hero, he didn't need to worry about money. He could even have another income by doing a secondary career such as the teacher in front of him, considering Aizawa should be a pro hero and a teacher at the same time.
In his case, with the help of "Fishing Mastery," he could make aquafarming and breed various types of aquatic organisms, which was profitable.
'Or can I make a sculpture or pottery class around the neighborhood?'
While he thought about his future, he still listened to Aizawa's announcement about what they should do.
In conclusion, what they would do was a standard physical test.
It was as simple as that.
"Mineta, how far could you pitch a softball in middle school?"
Mineta felt weird when his name was called, but he answered, "Just an above-average distance." While his physical ability was only one point away from the peak of human physical ability, he had never gotten that serious on the physical test at his school, so his result was above average and wasn't that special, considering many people were born with an enhanced physical ability "Quirk."
Still, what he meant by above-average was the average physical ability of a teenager without a "Quirk."
After all, the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science, and Technology hadn't made the standardized physical ability with "Quirk."
However, it was normal since with varieties of "Quirk," how could one make a standard?
Everyone was different, after all.
Except if they had a similar "Quirk."
However, the chance was rather small since every "Quirk" was unique.
The chances of one having a similar "Quirk" were many, but most of them were different.
"Sensei, If you want everyone an example for a throwing ball test, then I am not a good example since my physical ability is just above the average."
He didn't think it was good to use him as an example since, while his physical ability was only one point before the peak of humanity, it was still rather half-assed.
"Try using your "Quirk" this time around. Anything you do is fine if you don't exit the circle."
Aizawa didn't care about his words and gave a softball to Mineta.
"As long as I stay in the circle, anything I do is fine?"
Mineta looked at Aizawa curiously since his words opened his mind, considering his school didn't allow them to use a "Quirk" during the physical tests.
"Yeah."
Aizawa nodded and didn't feel surprised by his question. "Anything is fine as long as you stay in that circle."
"Okay."
Physical ability definitely wasn't his strong point, but the versatility of his Quirk was definitely his strong point.
While everyone was curious about what he would be doing, they were dumbfounded when they saw a ten-meter slingshot slowly form in the circle. He hardened the slingshot's frame and retained the sticky substance's elasticity on the rubber area. Naturally, it was a modern type of slingshot, which would optimize the speed and distance of the softball.
When everything was ready, he didn't put the softball on the pouch part when the slingshot immediately. Instead, he used his sticky substance to form the softball into a bullet-like shape, so it could lower the drag as much as possible.
"Sensei, is this legal?"
One of them suddenly asked since what Mineta did was quite outrageous.
They wanted to complain at this moment since this was no longer a bell-throwing test!
"...It's legal."
Aizawa answered after a moment of hesitation. Before, he had said everything was okay as long as Mineta stayed in the circle, so what Mineta did was perfectly fine, but he had to say Mineta's "Quirk" was versatile.
Mineta was done and put the ball in the pouch, and it stuck directly. He then shot a sticky substance from his hand at the building hundreds of meters away from the circle before connecting it to the back of the pouch.
If he wanted to, he could make his sticky substance reach a kilometer or so, but it could only be done if the shape of his sticky substance was small and simple.
If the shape of his sticky substance was complex, it would be impossible for him to expand his sticky substance to a kilometer or so.
However, if he wanted to improve, he had to increase the mastery of his "Quirk." Unfortunately, his points weren't enough, so he could only wait.
Lastly, his stamina was quite limited, considering his physical ability was just near the peak of human physical ability.
In a world where supernatural ability was everywhere, his physical ability was nothing.
While the night was different, he felt he needed to get stronger, especially during the day.
However, his physical ability was still nine points, and it was better to talk about this matter when his physical ability reached the limit, which was ten points.
Then, slowly, the back of the pouch was pulled toward the building where the extended sticky substance was connected.
It might be part of his ability, but as long as it was his sticky substance, he could manipulate it to do anything he wanted.
If he gave an example, it felt like he had telekinesis, but only for his sticky substance.
While he did all of this, everyone could only watch him in a daze.
"Everyone, can you step back? It's dangerous."
He looked at his teacher and classmates and couldn't help but remind them since he realized it might be dangerous for them to get too close.
"Hear him?"
Aizawa took the initiative to step back, and everyone also followed.
However, one boy seemed to be oblivious and muttered something while staring at Mineta.
"Hey, hurry up and move away!" Aizawa couldn't help but remind this boy.
"Ah, yes!"
The freckle and frizzy-haired boy quickly woke up but still stared at Mineta.
However, Mineta ignored this boy and confirmed everything was ready. He then looked at Aizawa, who also gave him a nod. He didn't hesitate and said, "Launch!"
The rubber, which had been stretched, was released immediately, and the softball, which had been shaped into a low-drag bullet, was thrown at a speed enough to break the sound barrier.
*BOOOOOOM!*
The booming sound from the sonic boom was heard, and the impact caused the dust to fly everywhere.
However, Mineta stood firmly in the circle, watching the ball move so far away toward the distant sea.
Fortunately, the Yuuei was massive, and it was adjacent to the sea, or else it would be dangerous if this softball had hit the street or someone.
After that, his attention was put on the slightly swaying frame of his slingshot, thinking that the toughness of steel wasn't enough to restrain the force of the projectile.
'Should I buy intermediate mastery for hardening ability?'
After all, he realized as hard as steel probably wasn't enough. However, his points were already saved for his "Pop Off," so he should wait for a while again.
When everything was finished and calm, everyone was still in a daze by what had happened.
On the other hand, Aizawa, who had watched Mineta on the entrance exam, thought his sticky substance's sticky and stretchy nature was more impressive than he had thought.
"You took too much of your time."
Still, Aizawa couldn't help but complain.
"Sorry."
Mineta could only apologize and said calmly, "I should be able to create this thing faster in the future."
"...Good. I expect that from you in the future."
Aizawa took a deep breath and then showed the result of Mineta's throwing ball test to everyone, ignoring Mineta's previous words.
25,782.7 meters.
This was the result of his throwing ball test.
If Mineta was serious, he should be able to match the Paris Gun, the ancient long-range gun with the farthest distance.
However, it was better for him to keep quiet about it.
"Before anything else, one must know what they're capable of. This is a rational metric that will form the basis of your "Hero Foundation."
"....."
Looks fun?
They could only smile wryly.
If the result was only a few hundred meters, they might be able to laugh and chirp happily, but Mineta's result was tens of thousands of meters, which was something that they could only dream of achieving.
"But you can use your "Quirk," right?"
"It sounds fun!"
After all, they were still young, so they couldn't help but imagine this test would be fun.
"It looks fun, you say? So you were planning to spend your three years here having a good time? What happened to becoming heroes? Alright, in that case, the new rule: the student who ranks last in total points will be judged useless and instantly expelled."
Aizawa's tone was severe, and no trace of joking could be heard.
Many showed various emotions.
Few were nervous, others were frightened, but many were excited.
However, Mineta must admit having a stable income was harder than he imagined, which made him sigh.
AUTORENGEDANKEN

akikan40 Err... the author's taste is slightly biased. Many like Mina, but I am not sure about myself.
As for Uraraka, she is normal, right? I think 7 points are just right.
As for Hagakure, I give her 9 points since, in the story, she is pointed out by many that she is one of the most beautiful girls.
As for Momo and Rumi who have 8 points, I also feel that the numbers are just right.
I know that not many will agree, but I think I take the majority's taste instead of the niche, so that's all.
Anyway, here you go, the bonus chapter that I promised.
Enjoy.
It's a long chapter.
Be grateful, okay?
