BNHA: Martial Arts God

CHAPTER 54

After the battle training, afternoon classes went by as usual. And once the school ended, Midoriya arrived back with bandages over his arms.

"Oh, Midoriya is here!"

Kirishima said loudly as the class went to congratulate him for his victory.

"Good work just now! Man, I don't know what you were saying during the match, but you sure were fired up!"

Kirishima remarked as Sero followed it up.

"I can't believe you fought evenly with Bakugo, even though you were dead last in the Quirk Assessment test!"

"You did a good job dodging!"

Ashido said with excitement as Midoriya backed up in nervousness. Seeing as they were about to introduce themselves, the two followed them.

"That was a good judo throw."

Gohru noted as Midoriya just sheepishly grinned.

"Yeah, you guys did that in the first match, so the rest of us had to give it our all too. Except for this guy though, he didn't even do anything!"

Sato told Midoriya as he pointed at Gohru, making him just grin as he slung his arm over Denji's shoulder.

"My padawan needed more training, so might as well let him when such a good opportunity came by."

"Ugh..."

"You were far from elegant, but — "

"You REALLY did a good job dodging!"

Ashido interrupted Aoyama as Midoriya had a confused face.

"H-Huh?"

"I'm Kirishima Eijiro. We were all going through the training just now."

Kirishima explained as he introduced himself to the main protagonist.

"I'm Sero Hanta."

"I'm Aoyama Yug — "

"Ashido Mina! You really REALLY did a good job dodging!"

"I'm Asui Tsuyu, call me Tsuyu though."

"I'm Sato!"

"Jin Gohru, nice to meet you."

"Uraraka Denji."

"Um... Er..."

The boy starts to panic as the rest that were still in the classroom conversed themselves. Jiro, Tokoyami, and Iida were talking, while Ochako and Kaminari walked into the class with books on their arms.

"Hey, Uraraka. Wanna grab a bite to eat sometimes? What do you like?"

Kaminari asked Ochako who looked at the class before her eyes landed on Midoriya.

"Mochi — Ah, Deku!"

She ran towards the boy as Kaminari just slumps his shoulders in defeat before feeling a shiver in his spine, as if someone was glaring at him.

"Wait, Recovery Girl didn't heal your injuries?"

"Oh, uh, it's because of how much stamina I now have, and..."

He stops mid-sentence as he sees Bakugo's seat empty.

"Um, Uraraka, more importantly..."

" — the hell is that? "Borrowed power"? You're talking nonsense. What are you trying to do, make me out to be more of a fool that you already have?! Huh?!"
