The Midoriya residence, bathed in the soft hues of twilight, served as the backdrop for Izuku's contemplation as he prepared to embark on the next chapter of his journey at U.A. High School. The resounding echoes of Chapter 2 played vividly in his mind, like scenes from a movie he couldn't shake off.

Living Room Flashback:

Izuku: Mom, I've decided to apply to U.A. High School. I can't let my quirklessness define me. I want to prove that heroes are more than just their quirks.

Inko: (worried) Are you sure about this, Izuku?

Izuku: I have to try, Mom. Heroes can't be bound by their quirks; they're defined by their actions.

In the cozy confines of the living room, the walls seemed to reverberate with the weight of a decision that would redefine Izuku's journey. The old notebooks, filled with meticulous hero analyses and strategic plans, lay scattered across the coffee table, each page a testament to his relentless pursuit of a dream that transcended the limits of conventional heroism.

U.A. Entrance:

The emblem of U.A. High School gleamed in the sunlight as Izuku stood before the imposing gates. Classmates from his middle school years, including Todoroki and Bakugo, eyed him with a mix of curiosity and wariness.

Todoroki: What's the deal, Deku? You think you can just walk in here like a hero?

Izuku: I'm just another student here. No different from anyone else.

Yet, the weight of his past as the mysterious vigilante Deku added an invisible layer to his presence, making him stand out even among the aspiring heroes-to-be.

Living Room Reflection:

As Izuku navigated the bustling corridors of U.A., the living room's memory lingered. It was more than just a physical space; it was a symbol of his transformation, the cocoon where a quirkless dreamer metamorphosed into the most feared vigilante – Deku.

Izuku (thought): The city knew me as Deku, the vigilante. But here, I'm just Izuku trying to redefine what it means to be a hero.

Heroics Lessons:

In the heroics lessons, Izuku found himself seamlessly adapting the tactics that had made him a formidable vigilante. The Inheritors' Legacy, a dormant quirk drawn from generations past, added an unparalleled layer to his abilities, infusing each move with a touch of mystery and power.

U.A. Teacher: Impressive, Midoriya!

The acknowledgment from his U.A. instructor resonated with the whispers of encouragement he had once shared with himself in the solitude of the living room.

Living Room Memory:

Izuku (whispering): The Inheritors' Legacy...

A mere whisper, a testament to the secret power that had lain dormant within him, concealed behind the façade of quirklessness.

In the Corridor:

Bakugo, ever confrontational, intercepted Izuku in the corridor, challenging him with that signature gruffness.

Bakugo: You think you can keep up with us?

Izuku: I'm not here to keep up, Bakugo. I'm here to redefine what it means to be a hero.

The exchange was more than banter; it was a declaration of intent, echoing the resilience born from countless nights spent in the contemplative solitude of the living room.

Living Room Recollection:

As Izuku continued his journey through U.A., he couldn't help but recollect the scattered notebooks that held the secrets of his past – from the middle school betrayal to the awakening of the Inheritors' Legacy. Those notebooks, once the foundation of his strategic approach, now held the potential to reshape the trajectory of U.A. High School.

Izuku (thought): The notebooks, the analyses – they're not just history. They're the foundation of who I am.

U.A. Sports Festival:

The anticipation of the U.A. Sports Festival hung in the air, excitement building within the academy. Izuku, now clad in the official U.A. uniform, felt the weight of not just his city's expectations but also the echoes of his vigilante past.

Todoroki: There's something different about you.

Izuku: Maybe it's time everyone found out.

The exchange with Todoroki hinted at the mystery that surrounded him, a mystery that had its roots in the very living room where his journey had taken shape.

Living Room Flashback:

Izuku (thought): From the living room to U.A., the journey continues. The Rise of Deku is more than a vigilante's tale; it's a hero's odyssey.

The living room, once a haven for preparation, held the memories of strategic planning, determination, and the pursuit of a dream that transcended quirks. Now, as Izuku navigated U.A. High School, the living room's influence lingered, guiding him through the challenges that lay ahead. The Rise of Deku was a legacy that moved from the shadows to the spotlight, from the living room to the grand stage of hero academia. And as Chapter 3 unfolded, the living room became not just a memory but a guiding force shaping Izuku's destiny.

In this continuation, the narrative dives deeper into Izuku's internal struggles, the significance of his notebooks, and the weight of his legacy as the Rise of Deku moves forward.
