It was very much a long weekend for the trio, explanations, and questions were long but fair. The system was more so using their introduction to Todoroki as a test run, for when they would get around to showing their classmates. Truth be told, they had never thought the day would come where they considered telling people their secret, but seeing how the red-white-haired teen's reaction was that of curiosity, they had hope that maybe it would be so bad for once. They had bonded over their tragic experiences, though painful to retell, which was therapeutic to them both.

Of course, they were also stalling speaking with the teachers that we're trying to locate them, but they refuse to speak with them until the following school day. At the school, the students were going on about the USJ incident and how the media now saw them. One did mention the systems multiquirk possibility, but Katsuki shot that conversation down with threats. Soon, after Iida told them all to prepare for class to start, Aizawa walks into the room. Red eyes land on green ones, though nothing was said, the intensity of them made the system nervous.

Midoriya looks up, giving the redhead a nod and smile.

The hero goes to the desk, focus now on the rest of the class "though we had that incident, there's more important matters to focus on. The U.A. sports festival is drawing near"

"That's a super normal school event!" the class shouts.

"Is it okay to have a sports festival so soon after the villains snuck inside?" Jiro asked.

"They could attack if we're all in the same place" Ojiro chimes in.

"Apparently, the administration thinks this is good to show that the threat has been handled and that our school is safer than ever. Plus, security will also be strengthened to five times that of previous years. This event is a huge opportunity for all students at UA, it's not something we can cancel because of a few villains"

"I'm sorry, but why not!? It's just a festival of sports." Mineta said terrified.

Izuku, currently fronting, turns to the purple-haired boy "Mineta, don't you know important this competition is?"

"Of course I do, I just don't want to get murdered"

"Our Sports Festival is one of the most-watched events in the entire world. In the past, one would obsess over the Olympics games, but then quirks started appearing" Aizawa explained "now, the Olympics have been drastically reduced in terms of scale and viewership. For anyone who cares about competition, there's only one tournament that matters: UA Sports Festival"

"That's right, the top heroes everywhere will be watching" Yaoyorozu added "this is where you're scouted"

"Sure, unless you're dead"

"She's right" Kaminari continued "after graduating, a lot of people join pro agency as a sidekick"

"Yeah, but that's just as far as some people go" Jiro stated "they miss their chance to become independent and become eternal sidekicks" she turns to the blond "actually, that's probably where you're headed. Since you're kinda dumb"

The conversation ended not long after, Aizawa dismissed the class as well. The greenette expected him to call him over, but the raven-haired teacher left the room. As curious as this was, they were in no way going to reach out after what happened.

"Zu, let's go walk for a bit" Kiri leans over his desk, a sharp grin on his face.

"Sure" they smile back.
