MHA: Masterpiece [Izukuxharem]

Chapter 29: Iida

My name is-no, it seems that after meeting that unruly person from earlier, introducing myself with my own name would lead to nowhere. I suppose I should just move on to whatever is relevant.

I propelled myself forward, charging across the street towards the only faux villain within my sights at the moment. It seems that the test is nearing it's end but I'm still not certain that I've gathered enough points to pass. There simply isn't a way to know without Yuuei supplying a concrete total number of faux villains and how much is needed to pass.

I can only look at it as a competition between us all on who could locate and defeat the most but unfortunately even that is crossed out as a means of knowing wether you've done enough or not. With the examinees scattered all throughout separate testing grounds and without a live counter given to us, there's really no way of knowing how much points the others have managed to accumulate so we all have no choice but to continue on blindly.

With that having been said, I focused on the task at hand. The three pointer lowered itself, preparing to launch at me even with it still being a few meters away from me. I bumped my speed up to third gear, enough to reach get there in time while still keeping my stamina in check.

"Ready yourself villain!"

Surprisingly, it did ready itself, reeling back an arm in preparation to try and bring me down. Once I was within it's range, it swept down with it's metal claw but I quickly jumped and effectively evaded the attack. Mid-air, I boosted myself forward and entered it's guard before landing a roundhouse kick to it's head. The metal crippled with the clean impact but I knew that it wasn't enough.

In a split second, I pulled my right leg back and propelled my left forward, spinning around mid-air before stretching right foot out once again, slamming the back of it on the faux villain's metal head, successfully landing a reverse roundhouse kick to the other side.

The machine then got launched towards the right, slamming itself against the front of a building by the time I landed back on the street surface.

I've successfully eliminated another villain worth three-points but as it is, I can't congratulate myself just yet.

In a search for other targets, I began to look around only to find another distraction drawing my eyes towards him. "The rude person," even as the time limit continued to draw nearer with every second, he just sat there on the sidewalk along a smaller street branching out of the main one in which I stood, seeming to be talking to himself.

There I began to complete my theory. He really was here only to serve as a distraction for all of us, to be an obstacle for everyone's success.

Just seeing him enraged me if I were to be completely blunt and honest. He wasn't even putting in the same effort as all of us yet he has the audacity to still take the test, not caring how big of a privilege it is to simply be able to. There must be other students out there waiting for their chance to apply yet here he was, wasting space-as rude as that sounds, I'm only laying down the truth bare.

I knew then and there that I needed to straighten him up so I walked towards where he sat. It seemed that he noticed me fairly quick, immediately turning his eyes to me.

"Sonic? What's up?"

He really is poorly educated when it came to proper, common etiquette. I pity both him and his parents but that's not what I came to do.

I stopped before him, looking down to say "I kindly ask of you to leave at once."

"Excuse me?"

Is he pretending? "There's no use hiding it anymore. I already know what you're attempting, it isn't nice. Trying to rob these aspiring heroes of their dreams and chances to make changes to this world infested with evil by distracting them, I simply cannot turn a blind eye to that."
