Y/N POV

The rest of the day flies by and so does Spirit Medium training after school.

The next day, drags on in the morning and through class.

I get very bored.

I already learned this...

I look at Shouto.

He's taking notes.

I look at Momo.

She's taking notes.

I already took the notes down.

I take down more notes as class continues.

"Alright. Now do this problem," Ectoplasm says, putting a math problem on the board.

I do the problem and go back to doodling on my paper.

"Midoriya."

"X=115/12!"

"WRONG! YAOYOROZU!"

"X=115/120!"

"Correct!!! Next one!"

I do the problem and sigh an inaudible sigh.

So bored...

I take out some paperwork for my businesses and start doing some of it.

"Anyone? Anyone at all? If no one answers I'm going to pick on someone...Kaminari."

"7Q/EF=U?"

"Wrong. Yaoyorozu."

"6ER/Q=U."

"Correct. Next one."

He writes the next problem on the board.

I write it down and solve it.

I then get back to paperwork.

I feel Shouto gently poke me.

I slip my paper over to him and he compares answers.

He seems confused.

I explain how to do the problem in a whisper.

Shouto nods and does the problem.

"Y/N. Do you have the answer?" Ectoplasm asks.

"Yes," I say, look at the front.

"What is it?"

You're the teacher, shouldn't you already know? Or are you just being annoying and wanting me to tell you because you're too lazy to walk five steps to the pedestal where the binder full of answers is...

"1,234,685,867,547,866=Z" I say, yawning.

Ectoplasm seems shocked.

???

They clear their throat and say,
"Congratulations, Y/N. In all my years of teaching, you are the first to be able to answer the problem correctly with any instructions."

I stare at them, raising an eyebrow,
"Not to be rude or anything...It's great that you think I'm that smart...but I remember this problem in a math text book I once studied. I just remember how to do it..."

"Was it the same problem?" Midoriya asks.

I shake my head,
"No. This problem is actually easier..."

Ectoplasm writes another problem on the board,
"Y/N, solve this. If anyone else in the class tries and gets it right, you'll get extra credit when you turn in your notes."
