The prestigious Hero School UA high had been the Japan's best High School on heroics, boasting on producing a lineup of great Pro Heroes famous across the nation like Endeavour and Best Jeanist and the world's greatest Superhero All Might whose popularity is off the charts worldwide. As such it made Akash wonder why people from all over the country didn't came to participate already?
But again it's not if all the participants had came from Mustafa, rather only the people with enough confidence had come here knowing well 96% of them are going to be eliminated before they can even enter the Hero course. Also, there had been famous and powerful Pro Heroes rising from other Hero Schools, being the reason for hundreds of thousands not lining up before it.
" Damn it is so big", Midoriya gaped as he looked around the hall, the very place where the exam was about to take place. Soon we got on our allocated seats," Yo!! How ya all doing?!!", the voice of Present Mic rung throughout the place and only silence of students reigned alongside, many looked at him confused and speechless, including me but Midoriya's eyes sparkled as if he had seen something impressive.
"Tch, don't embarrass me disciple", I said and my voice transmitted at him, he looked at me embarrass and finally got a hold up of himself. Then came our written exams, and we started writing it, there were quite the questions here. Like first questions were about ourself and on our quirks, then second were situation based questions, ' Like what will you do if three people are trapped within fire, and conditions are blah, blah, blah '.
'Great Sage, help me would ya? ', I asked my reliable teammate who replied,[Affirmative], she replied and the appropriate answers for these questions started flooding within my mind. Then at a superhuman speed, much to the surprise of students seated near myself, I completed the entire paper within a few minutes. I could have completed faster, but well paper isn't completely immune to friction right?
Anyway although my little act did garner some attention, it wasn't something of extremely noteworthy. At most they will assume I have a pretty handy quirk, but what came after that was annoying, at first due to the nervousness students ignored the nearby environment, but once they noticed me, bastard started looking as if looking at their crush, take a peek every once a while.
For a moment I wondered if it was right to get Rimuru's look, but well no use crying over spilled milk and not like I had a choice back then. I only had two transformations, one of Rimuru and that of a man whom I had devoured, and obviously Rimuru's one suited much better for agendas, and I have come to like on how I look, what to say? I have become quite narcissistic as of now.
After the written exams were over, Present Mic started explaining the situation about our Practical exams. For a moment many were left in awe realizing the quality of the exams, generally speaking as long as the basic answers of the identity-related questions were fine, as long as the student performed well in Practical exam he will be granted a pass, I looked over the place, wondering if Mineta was here, which was not the case.
' I would get him out of the school, no questions asked ', I thought setting up a goal to get rid of the pervert in case he managed to get in. While I was pondering, four-eyed serious faced kid- I mean Tenya Ida raised up his hand," Sir, If I may ask", he asked and Present Mic nodded, and he stood up explained," Firstly, Miss you there", he said pointing at me, I pointed at myself as if confirming he was indeed pointing at myself.
"You are being too casual here! I can see out of everyone here, you are the most indifferent. It is as you take this entrance exam to the prestigious UA High as a joke, I would prefer if you do take it seriously and not act like that", he said and my eyebrows started twitching and a single thought popped in my mind,' What the fuck? Is he on drugs? ', and I stood up retorting," Firstly, I am male", gasps could be heard all around the place.
"Secondly, I don't think I did here anything rude, you are pointing at me with such dumb reason, like my confidence is affecting your chances of getting in UA", I said and he wanted to retort but I quickly continued," Secondly, my attention is at the teacher, unlike you who cares about the small details of someone sitting three rows away from away. I can guess you were like,' Hey Sir?! What about the Zero pointer? Why didn't you explained about the points they will give? Why did a prestigious institution make such a mistake? ' Dumbass he is going to explain, you just lack the patience out of everyone here ".
" Indeed! As he said, I am going to explain. Now, please do sit back and be silent? I think disturbing everyone here without a good enough cause would be a fair reason for me to deduct some points", Present Mic said with a smirk, and poor Ida quickly shrunk back to his chair while students erupted in laughter. I can see Present Mic was just joking, though he was indeed annoyed, I mean everyone didn't reacted to any of his jokes he blabbered till now.
" Good, now as I said, Zero pointers won't provide you any points. Rather they will be an obstacle in your path, you can indeed destroy it, but I won't recommend it after all they pack quite a punch", he said. Finally it was time for the practical, using my hacking skills I sorted myself and Mineta together, while others as well in a way the main cast would pass, as for Mineta here he is going to lose, everyone else here as well.
*Zinggg*
Suddenly the door opened revealing the sight of the city, without any warning I charged in leaving the students stupefied, blue lightning cracked around my feet as I charged at a fast speed and I muttered, "Trace On", suddenly a spear manifested in my arms, obviously it wasn't the Noble Phantasm or the spear that can affect casuality, it was way above my current paygrad-*ahem* capabilities. Rather it was a simple yet handy one, it was the spear of Achilles from Fate franchise.
It even had the effect of not healing the enemy's injuries as long as the projection remained in the world, though it needed to be constantly supplied with magicules as well for the curse to retain the effect. I quickly got on top of a building and I ordered,' Great Sage, it's time to destroy every rocket, get me all their locations ', I said, and she replied,[Positive! Using all the Sense related skills...Successful!]
The next moment a huge amount of data assaulted my mind, enough to kill any normal human if not put him in a coma, but it was easily sorted out as my thinking became faster, the world quickly slowed down due to my hastened perception, I looked around, well aware of all the places where the robots are.
I jumped down and flew, breaking the sound barrier a bit, I quickly flew towards the pointer robots, they tried to attack me, but I simply slashed through them with my spear, destroying them or just used a fire manipulation to fry their circuits. I refrained from using my other powers other than to manipulate elements and this projection ability, as I have decided only to use them, and I can explain them actually using my quirk easily, since it's a truth.
Thus, I flew at a rapid speed annihilating all the pointers, leaving nothing for others. Not like I had plans to leave, the blasts of robots rung throughout the place as I quickly annihilated 70% of them, securing the top position easily, then I encountered the Zero pointer, it's massive frame casted a shadow above me and punched towards me, I easily avoided it and flying above, I threw my spear at it's processing unit.
*ZInggg*
My spear pierced through it, destroying the computation ability of the machine rendering it useless, my spear disappeared and I quickly traced a bow, which was the bow of Iruma, I loved it's style and it was much easier to replicate than the complicated one from fate series, I flew high above, knowing well that I won't make it in time to kill the others pointers without showing off too much of my physical prowess, a long range sniping was obviously the better option.
As arrows made up of pure destructive energy manifested and I shot at the pointers very far away accurately one by one. In no time the final one fell before my sniping, leaving every student stunned, the robot pointers of this entire testing grounds were destroyed by me leaving nothing for others, marking them all fail in this practicals. I smirked, relishing on my accomplishment, though the moment I got down I was hurled with insults.
"Why did you do that?!!"
"You stole my prey!!"
I looked at the students and said," Huh? Where it was listed that they were your prey? From what I remember, the rules said whoever destroy the pointers, gets the points! Was it stated anywhere that it forbids destroying pointers that others are engaged with in?", my words were like sharp knifes, though they didn't budge off, as a girl came and tried to grab my collar, only for me to grab her hand.
" You!", she tried to insult me, only to be thrown on the ground mercilessly," What you did was against the rules, Miss", said a man with white hair and orange mask who approached us," Did you hear that bitch?", the girl obviously mistook as Vlad King came near her and glared her," I wasn't talking to him, I was talking to you. Attempting to assault other students is forbidden, even if you had passed that would have earned you detention".
"Bu-But I am the one injured here! See my arm is bruised!", she retorted, but Vlad King didn't buy it. " He did it in self-defense and he didn't used his quirk either, which means only you are the only one at the fault. Now I would like everyone to leave her and not cause a ruckus, he has done everything with accordance to the rules of practical's ", he said, the girl looked defeated, and others as well.
Though many of them missed the fact I was a 'He', after some minutes me and Vlad King were walking down the test grounds," Haha! Your performance was amazing! Undoubtedly you will be getting the first rank this year", he said as he looked at me, I gave him a grateful smile and replied," Thanks to you as well, for getting me out of that situation and well not mistaking my gender".
" Well, tough huh kid? I imagine how hard it will be for you with a look like that, don't worry I will make sure that everyone in the UA knows in the gender before the session begins", he said and my eyebrows twitched, though I was grateful and thanked him before meeting up with Midoriya who revealed that he passed with flying colours in the practicals.

Some time ago,
" Damn", Aizawa muttered as he sipped his coffee, with wide eyes as he looked at the destruction that Akash has unleashed. It wasn't just him, everyone else's attention was fixated at the practical ground C, whether it was his super speed, or his ability to fly breaking the sound barrier, or his terrifying physical prowess, and ability to use fire and lightning.
" Tell me, what the heck is this kid's quirk?", Nezu asked, and Nemuri looked through the answer sheets, " Hmm, he had stated his quirks are Energy Manipulation and Wise One, well a simple name but terrifying quirk.", she said and others nodded shocked, a smile formed up on Nezu's face and he started laughing," Hahahahaha!! It would seem we got a genius", he said.
Meanwhile All might looked at Akash's performance surprised and felt bad knowing the real reason behind Akash joining the heroics, ' Only if he wanted to be a hero, well situation isn't completely hopeless, I will see if he changes his mind though that will be hard considering his personality ', her thought.
There was a reason All Might agreed with his decision, he wanted to see the full power of his quirk as well and since he had Wise One and was a rich content creator, he didn't protested against his decision knowing well his future was secured. Then he shifted back to the focus on another screen, being the only one looking at a another screen, 'Midoriya', he thought as his fists clenched and then relaxed.
Midoriya was performing good- no excellent. Although Akash outperformed him by a huge margin, but that was inevitable, after all, All Might knew Akash not only had a quirk rivaling OFA but also had more time to develop his abilities. Toshinori had personally handled the authorities, and used his influence to legally train him, something which was rare and was only known to a few higher ups of the country.
Thus, rather he wasn't disappointed with Midoriya's performance but was thoroughly impressed instead, Midoriya using his 'Full Cowling', easily handled the pointers, even if they were three-pointed pointers. He even secured a good amount of Hero points by the end, even Akash had secured some but they were quite less, only a few due to destroying robots which some students lost to.
In the end All Might had a hard time holding himself from taking both of them in his shoulders and screaming to entire UA that,' They are my students!!! Hahahaha!!!'.
