Chapter 22

The Aquamarine Agency was a huge building with impressive infrastructure, decorated beautifully with stuffs like seashells, corals, etc. Y/N walked towards the reception, and gave a copy of her internship form to the lady standing behind it. Although it wasn't needed, because all eyes were set on her the moment she entered the building. Ofcourse, they heard about the rumors and almost everyone stared at her nowadays but here, in this building, people were staring at her because of her power and quirk.

"You were impressive there. I was rooting for you, and we are really glad that you chose our agency," the lady behind the desk said with a smile and handed her ID card, "Here's your ID card. You need to wear it for the rest of the days whenever you come here. The lift is to the right. And the students waiting room is on the 3rd floor, room number 405."

"Uh, thank you." Y/N smiled, wearing the ID card immediately. She left the lobby and walked to the waiting room. All the other students were staring at her when she entered the room. Some of them were nice and introduced themselves.

"Hey, all the others are afraid to ask so I will just be straight with my question." A guy with black hair and blue highlights which matched his eyes asked her, "Aren't you the girl who's rumored to be going out with Endeavor's son?"

Y/N chuckled at his straightforward question and answered, "Honestly I'm kind of glad you asked instead of just staring at me. Yeah, it's just a rumor. I fainted and he was just helping me by melting the ice."

"Yeah, I kinda figured. Oh, I'm Oikawa by the way," he said.

"And I am-"

"Y/N Y/L/N, we all know that."

After a short while, Y/N saw a lady come over and call all of the students waiting in the room. She took them to the main office where the hero along with the assistants were waiting. Her hair was tied in a pigtail, her hero costume looked mostly like what a diver wears. It wasn't exactly shiny or something catchy but it definitely had multipurposes.

"Oh! You're here! Come in!" the lady said, keeping down her pen and concentrating on the interns. "I'm glad that all of you joined. We definitely didn't expect so many of you here, but oh well! The more, the merrier! Let's start with our introductions. I am the Water Hero of Peace: Baiji. Well, I did come up with the 'peace' later when I heard what people frequently call me on local news. Cool right?!"

"Well, she looks lively." Y/N thought. She noticed the assistants standing beside her, with comforting smiles on their faces.

Baiji clasped her hands and got up. "I hope you're ready for the training you're going to receive. Today we will just focus on cleaning up. We do fight against villains and protect people, but making sure the water body is clean also falls on our part of job."

It turned out that Baiji was actually serious about cleaning. Every intern was assigned with a small part of the bay and assistants of the water hero were there to keep supervision on them. Y/N realized, it might be because some of these interns might slack off. And she was right, but a few also threw a tantrum over how this was not what they were here to learn. She considered herself lucky to be not one of those, since these interns were given double amount of cleaning and an hour of it everyday.

"Yes, you are going to be a hero. But firstly, you've to get off that high horse and be on the same level as the general public. Only then you'll be able to see through their eyes. It often helps in figuring out the kind of villains you'll be dealing with. Being a hero doesn't just mean saving lives, but also inspiring them to be a better human being."

"That's a lot of responsibility," one guy said.

"It's a choice though, and a lot less than what mothers have in general," she replied, with the same smile she had in the morning.
