Midoriya kept sat after the beginning of the test and suddenly his lower half was frozen.

'Well, this isn't polite.'
'You're going to concede, correct?'
'Yea, I don't have time to play this game... I know it's important, but I'm not feeling very good right now and I can't get that out of my head... I have bigger problems.'
'Indeed, it doesn't make sense, although I don't feel comfortable losing to him.'
'What, why?'
'I don't know if this is going to make sense... You're the personification of the Lightning God Raijin, aren't you? And I am Raiju, It also doesn't make sense for us to behave like this... I'd like for you to act with more... Excellency.'
'Hahaha, that's rich, you just want to look cool then?'
'I believe... Yes, I believe I do.'
'Ok, let's look cool then, go ahead and read his mind.'

Todoroki Shoto arrived a few seconds later and saw Midoriya half-frozen near the weapon.

"You didn't take it seriously, did you? I'm disappointed."
"Huh?"
"You just gave up on the battle, well... With this, at least I can see that you don't care about anything, just like I thought."
"You're assumption is amusing Todoroki-kun. I'm going to tell you something very cliché right now so get ready, ok? Here it goes: You think you can go for the king on your first move?"

Midoriya smirked and said:

"Raiju."

As Raiju appeared, Midoriya destroyed the ice he was stuck using his unspoken Enhancement and sat on an unfrozen place on his left to watch the fight.

"Are you saying that I should defeat your minion first to show I'm worthy enough to fight you?"
"Minion? If this is what you think he is, you already lost."

Raiju dashed and released a series of spinning attacks infused with lightning, destroying the ice Todoroki was trying to put against him. He then started dashing around the room jumping between walls but never attacking directly and Todoroki kept focused on attacking while dividing his attention between Midoriya and the wolf.

"You're really worried that I'll interfere? Don't worry, I won't."

The boy started to slightly shake due to the cold and Midoriya noticed that was something that shouldn't happen.

"Raiju, stop. Todoroki-kun, why are you shaking like that? I don't believe is out of fear, you don't seem like the scared type... This can- No way... This can only be connected to your quirk... I would dare to say you're shaking due to the ice you're using right now since your arm is actually frozen, but it doesn't make any sense... Your quirk's name says Half-cold Half-hot... Meaning your left side can produce heat-"

"How do you know about my power?"
"I did some research on you after yesterday. So... what about your power-"
"It doesn't matter."
"What you mean?"
"I won't use it."
"What, why?"
"I already said it doesn't matter-"
"Huh? That's the reason?" Midoriya asked while looking at Raiju.
"What you talking about?"
"You're not using your power because it belongs to your father and you hate him for all his abuse over your childhood?"
"How-"
"Raiju read your memories just now." Todoroki just glared at the wolf, horrified.
"And your mother did that to your face? And that made you hate him even more?"
"Stop... Doing that."
"Or you're going to shake until I feel pity and stop?"
