      The rest of the class were on edge of their seats. Rimuru let the class have a 10 minute break before continuing. Best to have everyone in the right head-space for their matchs. He will admit, he went rougher on Bakugo than he thought. No true damage had been done, still over-kill on his part. For everyone else; pull back, re-group his game plan and keep it strong. Soft work is not going to cut it.

      Rimuru had packed snacks and water to get their brains going. 1-A chatted among themselves on ideas and battle plans. Aizawa reminded them about the goal and purpose for the matchs. The last thing needed is more students hurt or ending up with Recovery Girl. She gets upset with him enough on how he runs his class sessions.

      'Not going to lie, I'm still surprised that she works here. Or continues to work here with what Aizawa puts the kids through,' he thought to himself, chuckling slightly.

Solution: take over the class and re-write how the class system works.

      'Ehhhh!? No no no no! I am not doing something that nuts!' He shouted in this head.

It just seems as the best option. Given from proven information in the books you have gathered.

      'You ain't the only one to think that...' He sighed, remembering arguments certain fans would start.

      "Okay everyone! Get yourselves ready. Rimuru will be calling the next student shortly. Please pay attention and do your best," Aizawa called, getting Rimuru out of his thoughts.

      He stretched himself out and jumped back down to the ring. Looking over the class, he wasn't sure who to get next. Denki? Sero? Maybe Mina? It wasn't long till his eyes landed on Mineta, giving a bit of grin on his face under his mask. Rimuru quickly called out him out. The class all smirked while he started having a panick attack. Mineta tried to argue about how seriously there is someone else who can take his spot. Why start with someone who isn't as skilled?

      "This lesson is about improving skills. You many not have alot but I'm going to change that," Rimuru said calmly before grabbing Mineta with his threads. "Now... show me what ya got!"

      "Gaaaaaah!" Mineta shouted as he was pulled to the ring. Just barely a foot from hitting the ground before being put down. "You really want me to go!? Why am I being picked on!?"

      "The time shall start! Once I count down from 10, the match shall start!" Aizawa, not wasting time, began counting down. It didn't take long for the whole class to join in after.

      "Seriously guys!? What's the big idea!?" He shouted toward his class, on the break of crying before turning toward Rimuru.

      Once Aizawa hit zero and blew the whistle, Mineta quickly starting tossing his orbs. He was completely panicked and aimed for his body. Get Rimuru stick to one spot should be easy enough to land a hit. With the threads that he uses, getting them stuck and covered would make them useless. Mineta felt a slight jolt of confidence hit him. Not only would be the first to land a hit, but that would surely get him brownie points with the girls in his class.

      'If I can make myself look cool while doing this... then all the ladies will love me!' He thought to himself with a slightly creepy smile. 'I'll show you guys what I can do! The girls will be all over me after this.'

      At least, it would have been a good idea, until he hear Rimuru shout:

      "Beelzebuth!" Rimuru held out a hand, from his palm came what looked like a black tornado. A black hole in the center pulling in every orb that Mineta had thrown his way. As if it were nothing. The air had been picked clean.

      Deku gasped at the sight, "That's Mr. Mikami's second quirk! Beelzebuth! It really is incredible!"

      "What!?" 1-A shouted.

      "You had the right idea of tried to stick me to one spot. But you always need to be aware of anyone may have a counter attack for it," Rimuru called, beelzebuth soon stopping after collecting it all. "Don't let a small amount if confidence be the reason you lose."

      Mineta just stood frozen has he witnessed his orbs swallowed away. Now rethinking his life up to that moment. "I-I-I.... Uhhhhh...!"

      "Time to return the fire," he said, hands infront of him. From his palms, Rimuru fired out blue orbs. It wasn't long till Mineta found himself stuck to a wall.

      Aizawa stopped the timer and called out the time of 45 seconds. The class cheered for him having a quick win. In "awe" at getting to see his second quirk. The massive black void that came from his hand looked incredible. Izuku continued to write in his notebook. A note of how it reminded him of Thirteen's quirk: Black Hole. Her quirk can absorb and breakdown anything. Key differences between the two; Rimuru can copy and throw back what was absorb.

      Next up to the plate came Mina Ashido. Ready for action and to test her luck. Rimuru admired how spirited and cheerful Mina's personality is. Quick to be a fan favorite and being the life of the classroom. Her said quirk could do any amount of damage. Both in combat and helping people get out of places in rescue missions.

      Their match began and Mina made quick work to stay moving on her feet. She did her best, throwing streams of acid his way and tried her best in getting him. Rimuru followed the same beat, switching to and from his slime-to-human forms. The two joked on how this fight might go on for the whole time. Rimuru would've fully agreed, had Mina not started to saw signs of running low on stamina.

      He took a chance and charged toward her in his human. Mina caught by surprise, made a rapid fire decision is producing more acid. A large enough ball if it should land somewhere on him right? Caught it in the heat of the moment, Mina throw out all she got. A loud splash was heard, her eyes widen in excitement; she did it! Mina is the first to get a hit!

      That moment of bliss had become short lived as a pounding force came to her stomach. She looked down and saw Rimuru, slime form, getting a direct hit!

      "Ehhh...!" Mina peeped out, before feeling herself fall to the ground.

      Rimuru morphed his slime body to a bigger size and caught her. Now acting like a squishy beanbag chair for her. In her confused state, she looked toward what she thought was her teacher. Black smoke came from the body, it's color faded away.

      "You thought fast, but you have to keep yourself calm and collected before attack. It's a good move, but I won't make it a final move," Rimuru said to her calmly, his slime clone melting away. "You did rather well. Keep up with those fast feet of yourself, Mina. Very impressive indeed."

      Mina giggled a bit, commenting about how squishy he is before letting herself rest. Her energy feeling drained from their match. Overjoyed at how well she did; but upset that it wasn't her match to win. Hearing his words of encouragement did ease the blow. She always knew she had lightning feet. Aizawa then called the timer at 2 minutes and 10 seconds. They first longest match to start of the class.

      'This is going to be a long road till the more important events come. I've got do what I can and get them ready. Just like how I would in Tempest, I've protecting these kids with my life," he thought to himself as he brought Mina back up with the others.
