Now that classes have started back up again, you have less time to train with Kirishima, giving the boy the perfect opportunity to study up on the material you gave him. The last time you met up to train in the gym and questioned him about seals, curses, and scriptures, he seemed to have improved quite a bit. Same goes for his cursed energy manipulation.

Since Kirishima primarily fights with his fists, you decided to teach him how to coat his hands, arms and legs -depending on the situation- in cursed energy to deal extra damage to human opponents as well as to exorcising curses. So far he adapts well to your training, getting along nicely with the regime you've built. And while he still struggles to consistently emit cursed energy, he can concentrate it quite fast when necessary.

"We'll be busier from now on."

You look over your shoulder, locking eyes with Kirishima's. The boy is sitting on the ground, water bottle in hand, taking a quick break from his sparring lesson. You're standing partially with your back to him, drinking from your own bottle. You only switched up his training a couple days ago, but Kirishima already has you on your toes. Holding back gets harder as his strength grows, and you have to use more and more of your capabilities to stand equal to him. As expected, a sorcerer with a quirk enhances and learns fast.

"What for?"

"Provisional License."

"Ah."

While you get carried away from time to time, you always try to remember that Kirishima is still a hero in training, a UA student that aspires to save people and solve crimes, rather than a sorcerer that will rid the world of invisible creatures. "Good luck then. We might cut training hours short before the test. So you can concentrate." He nods, thanking you for considering his heroics training and you wave him off, saying that it's nothing.

"But tomorrow we have big plans. I hope you can free up your night?"

"Of course! What's on schedule?"

You throw the water bottle next to your bag, sitting down on Kirishima's right. "With exams and tests coming up, the stress levels on campus will rise. I can already feel something big lurking around. I want to hunt it down tomorrow. And if you're up for it I can take you along." He cheers, immediately agreed to your proposal.

You planned on taking Kirishima along to a bigger exorcism a while ago, but with the way UA cares for their student's safety as well as the lack of stronger curses on campus, the opportunity has yet to arrive. You can't just take the boy outside, neither with a permit nor by sneaking out, to hunt down curses. Considering that you work mostly under the cover of night, with nothing but a sword in hand, the principal would never allow one of his students to accompany you on one of your adventures. Not even if you promise to protect him. Maybe you'll manage to convince him one day.

Even you alone have a hard time leaving campus. Of course, Nezu gave you a card that lets you exit and enter school grounds as you please, but teachers and students that notice your constant coming and going might get suspicious. So you usually reject offers from Yasuhiro or Satoru, saying that your student is currently more important. As long as another sorcerer can take care of it, you won't be leaving campus. Not for some random third grader. First, maybe. Special, definitely. After all, other than you there are only two special grade sorcerers in japan. And one of them is a lazy bastard.

"Let's get this last rep."

"Yes!"

You make sure to sleep in the next day, only waking up when noon already passed and the sun has risen high into the sky. Once again it's only you and All Might in the dorms and the blonde greets you with a smile upon your entry. His gaze shifts to your arms and neck for a split second before focusing back on your black eyes. You don't mind it, he's curious but doesn't speak on it, so you shrug the staring off.
