Years passed as Izuku continued to learn medicine and biologie under doctor Garaki's care. His superior intellect and natural talent for anything medical related, made him keep up with studies that are far beyond his age. Now, the boy was well known among the hospital staff and was even authorized to help with a few patients. At 12 years old, his age was now almost the last thing keeping Midoryia from being a part of the staff.

Of course, this quickly brought him a lot of attention and fame in the medical world. He was the kind of prodige that you would see only once in numerous life times. However, it was clear that working in a hospital was not really for him. The common citizens that made most of the hospital's patients were terrified by his appearance, obsession with the pestilence and of course, his lethal touch. Many had downright refused to be in the same room as him, once they learned of this particular effect of his quirk.

Though it did not bother Izuku whatsoever, he was far more interested in practicing medicine in the hero world. After all, this is where he'll find the poor souls affected by the great dying. Garaki was really surprise to see how Midoryia took the fear and accusation of the common people so well. He himself had been criticized and turned to ridicule by many of his colleges when it came to his own research, and he had took it far worse than the boy back then. 

Izuku : There is no worries to have about the common folk's opinion, dear doctor. When my research will be complete and they witness the results of my work, they will come crawling back to me, asking my forgiveness towards their ignorance. Besides, it is for the good of mankind that do this, not for myself.

Garaki was very impressed by the young boy. He had no problem admitting that Izuku truly had earned his respect. His fear towards the boy being on the opposite side for the upcoming events was now replaced by sadness. This Midoryia kid will definitely become his equal someday. And for that he would make sure that the boy's talent would not go to waste !

Garaki : You know what kid ? The pro hero Recovery Girl is a very old friend of mine. With her being UA's main nurse, I can easily get her to recommend you for the academy. Like me, she will see that your incredible talent must not be wasted. I'm giving you my word !

Izuku : This is very kind of you, dear doctor. Once again, I am in your debt. 

Garaki : Don't spit out such nonsense, kid ! I will sooner die than see a gem like you not getting at the top where you belong ! With that brain and long life of yours, you'll repay me by breaking down all bouderies we have in the field. Now go, you're starting your first day in Junior High tomorrow, hop hop !

Izuku : My utmost thanks, dear doctor. until next week, then...


----------------------------------------


It was Monday and the first official day of school. Izuku Midoryia was walking quietly towards his school with Katsuki Bakugo at his side. They were going at a lazy pace with Midoryia keeping people and animals alike, away from him with his cane, while Bakugo was silently fuming next to him. Possibly and seemingly annoyed by the numerous looks they got. As they were reaching Aldea Junior High and got even more looks, Bakugo couldn't take it anymore.

Bakugo : How the f**k, are you managing to stay calm with all those f***ing extras looking at you like dumbasses 24/7 ?! I would have exploded long ago !

Izuku : I know, my dear friend. To simply put it, reacting to those gazes would only imply that their opinion are somewhat important to me. They are not, and this the best way to show them this simple fact. 

Bakugo : tch... As if it was f***king simple...!

While both stopped to talk so they can start to concentrate on where they were suppose to go, they heard a bunch of students giggling to their right in an obvious mocking way. Both turned to see three young boys and one girl walking towards them with mischievous smiles on their face. Bakugo turned red from anger and immediately started to make his hands produce sparks, but Izuku used his cane to tell him to calm down.

Izuku : Please, my friend. We don't need to be in trouble this early...

Boy 1 : Hey, bird face ! Where is your school uniform ? You forgot that this is a school and not a carnival hall here ?

Boy 3 : Wouldn't surprise me ! He does look live a clown here !

Boy 2 an girl : pffft...

Bakugo : You f**kers...

Izuku : Please, my friend. Now to answer your question, my dear childish fellows... What you see here is no mere carnival or halloween costume. For these are a part of my quirk, they grew on me and are of my flesh and bones.

girl : Wait... So technically you're naked ?!

Izuku : Yes. Though I posses no genitals, neither a rectum. 

Boy 2 : That's f***ing freaky ! 

Boy 1 : pfft... I'm sure this f***er is lying ! How about I take off your mask to show how much of a moron you are ? 

Izuku : That would be a very bad idea, for your own health...

Boy 3 : What ? You're threatening us ?!

Bakugo : No, f**ktards ! That's another part of his quirk ! Touch him and all of your organs will simply stop working. On the way to the quirk doctor, a Vilain found out about that the hard way.

With this statement, all the bullies of the group lost their smugness and completely went pale. They had heard and letter read in an articular on the internet about the famous incident. And now they just realized that they were, in fact, talking to the kid who was the cause of the event. They quickly backed away in fear as Midoryia took a step towards them.

Boy 1 : Ba-back a-away ! You... vilain ! 

Izuku : Now, now my dear friend. Don't speak such nonsense about me being a vilain. After all, if I was really one... you would all, already be dead by now...

Boy 3 : Pl-please...

Izuku : Have no fear, although you show the starting symptoms of the pestilence you are not sick yet. Besides, my cure is far from finish for now. Come Katsuki, we have only a few minutes to reach the main conference room. The principal will soon welcome us all to Aldea and explain about the establishment.

Bakugo : And about you. See you later, f***ers !

With that, both walked lazily towards their destination, leaving behind a group of bullies terrified and scared for their lives.
