章節 48: Chapter 47
"The country's top Heroes are sure to be watching us." added Yaoyorozu. "It's because they'll be scouting for us."
"I'm thinking I might follow the tactic of going sidekick for a Pro Heroes squad after graduating and rise up from there!" said an optimistic Kaminari.
"But there are loads of people who get stuck as sidekicks forever and miss their chance to break out and become solo Heroes." Jirou said with her usual snark. "Though, you seem like the kind of dumbass to do that Kaminari."
"Khh!"
"Though his words do hold merit." interrupted Aizawa. "Naturally, entering the squad of a famous Hero will get your higher status and more experience. Remember, time is limited. If you get noticed by a Pro, that gives you the standing for a brighter future than those who aren't. This is a chance you only get once a year. That means over the course of your schooling, you get three chances total. If you aim to be a Hero, then this is a chance you must not overlook. Give it your all!"
After homeroom, the rest of the school day passed by relatively without incident. The students had adopted one of three different approaches to being around Kumagawa. Some outwardly avoided him, such as Hagakure and Mineta. Others simply remained unconcerned with him and acted as if everything was normal, people like Bakugou and Tokoyami. However the smallest number of them belonged to the group that actually were willing to interact with him. This group was only comprised of Midoriya, out of kindness, Uraraka, out of concern, and Kirishima, out of either being too brave or too stupid for his own good.
Bakugou had yelled his fair share of obscenities, causing Kumagawa to keep counting upwards, which only resulted in Bakugou cursing even more in anger. By the time last period rolled around, Kumagawa was up to 335. Though it would do one well to remember that he counted in increments of 5.
And it was during the final period that trouble began to arise.
"Whooa..." Uraraka muttered in awe. "What is with all these students in front of our classroom?!"
True to her word, there was a veritable mob of students blocking the doorway out of Class 1A.
"Their crowding the exit! What are they here for?" wondered Mineta.
"They're scoping out the competition, retard." grumbled Bakugou.
[340.]
Shooting a quick scathing glare at the grinning teen behind him, Bakugou approached the crowd. "They wanna see the gang who went through the Villain ambush and survived. They're checking us out before the big battle." he then sneered at the gathered students. "It's pointless to try, so why don't you fuck off, ya goddamn mob."
[350.]
"I will kill you one of these days. You know that, right?" asked the violent teen.
[You are more than welcome to try. Better men have tried and failed.] Kumagawa responded with a smirk of his own.
"I came to see what you kids are made of, true, but I didn't think you'd be this arrogant." came a distinct voice from the mob. "Are all the kids enrolled in the Department of Heroics like this? Or are you just a special kind of asshole?" asked a purple-haired teen as he emerged from the crowd.
"Aaah?!" grunted Bakugou.
"There's lots of kids who end up in the General Education Department or other departments because they failed the Heroics one. Did you know that?" the teen asked.
[Naturally. Because someone wins, that also means someone else has to lose. So I guess that makes you the side characters.] surmised Kumagawa.
"Don't get ahead of yourself buddy. We 'side characters' have the opportunity to graduate to main characters. Based on ones performance during the sports festival, people can even come under review and be transferred to Heroics. So that means the reverse is also possible." the teen scoffed. "Scoping out the competition? No, I'm here to make a declaration of war. I'm gonna pull the rug out from under you high and mighty brats."
Kumagawa's grin widened. [A declaration of war you say? How exciting! Very well, we shall accept your challenge. But don't come crying to us when you have to give us an unconditional surrender.]
"Can you even hear how arrogant you sound right now? It would actually be quite impressive if you can back up those words."
Kumagawa stepped forward as he made to leave, passing by the student as he did so. [I plan on more than just 'backing them up'. Trust me when I say that this years sports festival will be one for the record books.]
The rest of the crowd eyes briefly followed Kumagawa as he made his exit before turning their attention back to the rest of Class 1A.
[In just a couple weeks, nothing will ever be the same again. The game will finally begin~.] he said with a smirk as he looked out the window, scanning the horizon. [And Hero society as we know it will forever change.]
