Chapter 16

Gradient's P.O.V

Midnight: Now the second event is... THIS!

The second event is revealed to be a cavalry battle, a way to force the participants to join in groups and work together...

Midnight: Let me explain. participants will form their own group of 2 to 4 members. The rules are no different from a regular cavalry battle except for one... From the result of the last race, each player will be assigned a point for each

Midnight shows everyone's points and I look at the top to see Izuku who's worth id ten million, I can feel his dread as he knew he was targeted

Thank god I decided to go 4th place! Sure some people will target me for my points but it won't be as bad as Izuku! We are given 15 minutes and everyone has started finding teams of their own while I'm trying to figure things out...

???: Hey mister nice guy! We need another person on our team would you join us?

I look in the direction of the voice to see the student that challenges our class a few weeks ago, Ojiro, and another student from class 1B following him with a weird look on their face. He grins at me as he waits for me to answer. I quickly use my strings to form the words 'Don't use your quirk' as he stares at me in surprise

???: Fine fine I'll stop

Gradient: Thank you very much and I'll be happy to join... I never caught your name, my name is Kōbai Mitsu, what's yours

Shinso: Hitoshi Shinso, Are you gonna stop me from controlling them?

Gradient: I would but they'll probably leave this team for what you did so it's better if they stay like this even if we're taking advantage of this

Shinso: That's true... since you're the only one in this group that is conscious might as well discuss things with you

I nod as we start discussing plans

Gradient: I say we avoid as many people as possible and just swipe points without them knowing, we avoid the teams with big points and focus on the other teams who will probably get distracted in trying to get the ten million band

Shinso: You can manipulate strings right? You should be the rider, I'll make sure these 2 stay hypnotize while you snatch the points with your strings

Gradient: Alright then!

The timer is up and the race is about to begin

Quick scene change!

Nightmare: Eraser wake up, the team is settled

Present Mic: After 15 minutes of teaming up and creating strategies, 12 cavalry teams are lined up on the field.

Eraserhead: Those are some interesting teams

Nightmare: Indeed they are

Present Mic: Get ready everyone as it is about to begin! LET THE COUNTDOWN BEGIN!

Back!

I quickly pull out my strings and begin tying my strings onto the headbands which connected to my wrist before tying the headbands around my head so I can know who took them if they snap

I look around me to see the teams that are formed

The battle has begun

Midnight: START!

Everyone begins running to Izuku's team as expected, I quickly snatch some points and tie my strings into them as we run around finding some victims to attack...
