Nezu was very interested.

UES. He hadn't heard that name in forever. He couldn't even believe he had heard it again after all.

He had studied the UES corporation quite a while ago, as they only employed the quirkless. At first, he was confused, thinking that it might've been a morality thing, giving the usually unemployed a new job. Then, he actually met a veteran of UES.

Turns out, it wasn't morality, it was scientific. Quirked people have a gene that is replaced in their chromosones that actually give their quirk.

However, after the quirk gene was introduced into humans, the "Quirkless" gene gained an ability that was lovingly called, "Hyper-focus." Perhaps this was the reason that Izuku had been so good at analysis. He wondered if every quirkless had similar Analysis abilities. He hadn't met many, as most were the older generations.

He liked that veteran, because he could not only give a him a mean game of chess, but his experiences at UES was simply amazing. So many new flora and fauna they've come across, and the higher technology and seemingly magical artifacts they've come across made him sit at the edge of his seat.

He missed Kat.

"Who do you think our heroics teacher is?" Izuku heard from outside the door of 1-A. Aizawa and him were waiting outside for the perfect time to walk in and shut them up. It wasn't like they'd be late either.

"I heard that All Mighty was teaching at UA. Maybe her?" One of them theorized.

"Doubt it. No way the number 1 could take time off to teach kids," Another chimed in, as the door burst open, with Izuku and Aizawa walking in.

"What did I say about socializing. Once you enter this classroom, you're silent unless told differently," Aizawa said, as Izuku set his stuff down on the desk, along with Aizawa's coffee, who drank it disinterestedly. "Now, your heroics teacher will be here any second. A word of advice for your battle trial, don't slack off. Izuku didn't mention it, but he reports directly to the staff, and he can catch everything you do," Aizawa subtly threatened, as Izuku waved with a slight smile towards the paled crowd. Aizawa then crawled inside her sleeping bag and sat in the corner.

"If you want to, you can ask me questions. I'm not as restricted as yesterday," Izuku said, expecting a great response. Surprisingly, only one raised their hand.

"Was I one of the people who needed work?" Hitashi asked, as Izuku shrugged.

"Maybe, Maybe not. If anyone is going to ask about that, that will be your only response. As I said, I'm not as restricted, but when it comes to your well being and ability, I'll say what I wish," Izuku replied, noticing that only a few actually understood what he said. He probably needed to dial back on the Smart-alec form of speaking. He just picked it up from Nezu over the first few months. "I want you to do well, so I'm not going to say if you did bad or good." That received more nods of understanding, which quickly turned to shock.

"I AM HERE!" All Mighty said, bursting through the door, nearly shoving it off it's hinges.

"Woah!" "It is All mighty!" "We get All Mighty!?" "Isn't that her Silver-age costume?" The yells of fangirls and aspirers echoed through the room. It was very clear that All mighty was beloved, and for good reason.

"Yes! I am indeed your heroics teacher!" Miss Yagi said, not noticing Izuku behind the desk. "Today will be your battle trial, and which you all will be paired into teams of two and perform a mission against one another!"

"Awesome!" "Sweeeet," "Let's go!" "I WILL DESTROY YOU ALL!" The various voices of the students once again rang out throughout the room.

"However, first off, you all need to look like heroes, not that I already see a room of future ones already. You've sent in your hero costume designs, and we've all had them made! Come get yours, put it on, and meet at the arena area!" All mighty explained, as the students quickly did so, grabbing their costumes from the hanger that was brought in, and running out of the room.
