Roman and Neo looked down as the first round started. A race, by the looks of it.

Although it couldn't be called a simple race. Not with all the obstacles that were put through it.

It would be another story if these kids had aura, but they don't. It's a wonder how no one died at this school yet.

Izuku, as the two expected, didn't use his quirk yet. It was a logical choice. The competition had just began and that quirk litterally was breaking his body when used.

Although he had taken advantage of Shouto frezzing the terrain to glide through the course with a metal plate. Kid has a head on his shoulders.

Although the most interesed in this development seemed to be Katsuki, by the sheer volume which he screaming his lungs out at Izuku. Neo doesn't think even Blondie had this much anger issues.

Izuku ended up winning the race by a hair's margin. However, that didn't end up in the best result.

The next challenge was a cavalier battle with points distribued to tge first to the last place of tge first round. Now all the students gazed at Izuku like wolves would gaze at a lamb.

Roman:Oh, tough luck.

Neo mimicked a giggle while enjoying a cake. When looking at Roman she was confused by tge sour look he was given.

Roman:Look who showed up to his kid's important day.

Neo turned her head and her grin turned into a frown. It was a hero both of them didn't enjoy in the slightest.

He was a man with red hair and a fire beard and moustache decorating his face, his eyes being of a contrasting bright blue. His name was Todoroki Enji.

Roman greatly disliked him because he was reminding him too much of Cinder

Roman greatly disliked him because he was reminding him too much of Cinder. However, Neo's distate for him was because he was reminding her too much of her own father.

Not that such a subject was worth any more thought. Even if they were back in Renmant, her father was long dead. Burned to and explosion of highly explosive dust crystald caused by an attack of Lil' Miss Malachite.

While not directly responsable for her parents's death, Neo without a doubt had a part to play into that. However, she doesn't regret what she did. Through all her life, she was never as happy as when she is with her Dum-Dum.

The battle had gone well, if not a bit chaotic. Even so, a single one got their eyes.

Roman:That kid...Can control others, huh? Guess he got shit in life for that.

In response Neo rolled her eyes. Roman nodded in agreement.

Roman:I don't think even we discrminated against Faunus back home so badly.

Neo pur her hand on her chest woth big eyes and would've lrobably cooed at him if she could speak. Roman offered a grunt as his answer.

Roman: Don't get me wrong, I had no pleasure in working alongside those mutts. Perry wasn't so bad, though.

Ah, yes. He was his right hand when he had that whole train explosion going on. Neo can't really remember what happened to him as she never really paid attention.

While the White Fang weren't Roman's favorite bunch, the worst one had to be Adam. He gets it, his girlfriend left him and his terrorist group to become a Huntress. But he can stop brooding all the time about it!

That guy had some serious attachment issues. Than again, considering that Neo is the only one he really cares about and the only one he ever truly trusted, maybe he shouldn't talk.

Oh, they moved along now. Seems the last one is one one on one combat until only one remains. Just like the Vytal Festival.

Neo seemed to have enjoyed her time at Vytal when she was possing as a student. Roman had no doubt he'd have enjoyed watching her demolishing those kids, but was unable to due to being held on an Atlesian ship with the "wonderful" company of the general.

Now that he thinks about it, is this really the hardest hero school to get into. Beacon had their possible students land from a cliff in forest infested by the creatures of grimm and retried chest pieces from a ruin hidden deep in the forest without being apart.

They're worried about people using their quirks for selfish gain, the tree guy even calling a snatch purser the incarnation of evil. Back home they had an actual army of terrorists and ever producing monsters that would be influenced to attack you just because you had a bad day. Pfft, those kids were having it easy.

In the end Katsuki had managed to take the first place, followed by Shouto in second and some bird guy in third. Katsuki was stil furious about how he won because Shouto refused to use his full ability, clear by the way they had restrained her.

Roman:Well, Neo...I think it's time to spice things up.

Neo nodded and Roman had imediatly jumped down. A fire shot on the podium gathered everyone's attention when he landed, Neo floating after him with the help of Hush.

Tomura was in his room, staring bored at the screen displaying the U.A sport festival while eating a box of Neo's Neo. However, when two familiar faces appeared on the screen he began paying attention once again.

Roman:Well, hello there folks. You know, I remember a time much simpler. A time where crme was all about profit. What happened to kids today! Well, I want to adress to my fellow crooks behind the screen, you know who you are, and openly announce our entry in the criminal world. Now, we have made some appearences. Some thefts around the techology world, some fundings of the Hero Association.

Neo held her finger up with a mischevious grin. It didn't take a genius in sign language to know she wanted to say they were guilty.

Roman:We might've as well have played our part in the USJ incident. But, hey, wanted to make it official. By the way...Don't forget to buy Neo's Neo!

Neo gave a wink from behind him, clearly having fun. In contrast, Toshinori gave them a grin which most might find intimkdatimg.

Toshinori:Haha, you sure are hot blooded! You really think gou can say that and get away from a place filled with heroes?

Roman:Come on, Big Guy...You think we're dumb?

Enji:You!

Enji, recognizing the one who damaged his masterpiece, used a rush of flames to get to the two. However, wgen he touched their figures they shattered into glass.

However, that was not the worst part. When he got up with a furious gaze he noticed his belt was missing and his pants soon fell.

The secobd highest ranked hero of Japan, Endeavor, was seem in his boxers on national television. On his dark room Tomura thought he might seriously die of laughter.

Endeavor:ROMAN TORCHWICK!
