Before long, the remaining groups fiheir matches. Since each game only sted 15 minutes, everything ed up within two css periods.

  Perhaps it was the iy of the battle between Midoriya and Bakugo in the first game that set the tone for the others, making everyone approach their matches with heightened seriousness. As a result, the level of petition remained sistently high, leaving Kaminari deeply eained.

  One particur individual who caught his attention was Tokoyami Fumikage. His Quirk, a fusion of the mutant aer types, allowed him not only to possess bird-like agility but also to summon a shadowy, bird-shaped entity. Kaminari couldn't help but feel curious about it. He wondered what it would feel like to touch that shadowy creature surely, it had to be an odd sensatiht?

  As for his earlier enter with Todoroki, while it raised more questions than answers, it didn't seem to have much of an impa the overall mood of the css. As Bakugo had bluntly put it, "It retty b!"

  Finally, after the seventh period, the students of Css 1-A ed up their day. Most of the teachers and students had already left the Hero Course building, save for the few who still lingered like Kaminari and a few others from Css 1-A.

  Kaminari was just pag up his things when Kirishima and Ashido Mina approached him with a proposal. They wao wait for Midoriya and properly introduce themselves.

  "Sorry, I o head home soon," Todoroki responded coldly, pig up his bag and walking out of the without any further expnation.

  As for Bakugo, he had already left with a stormy expression, leaving the group no choice but to shift their attention to Kaminari and Yaoyorozu, who were also preparing to leave.

  Kaminari chuckled. "I'd love to, but I'm heading over to Yaoyorozu's house to study eleagism after school, so… maybe ime?"

  Seeing their disappointed expressions, Kaminari quickly added, "Don't worry, I've already memorized everyone's names!"

  To prove it, he poi eae, reg their full names perfectly. With a cheeky grin, he waved and followed Yaoyorozu out of the .

  Yaoyorozu quietly followed behind him, her face filled with anticipation. To the casual observer, it might have seemed as though she was excited for a romantic evening, but in truth, she was simply looking forward to studying and teag again.

  While Kaminari was handsome and talented, Yaoyorozu had grown up around many successful and attractive people. She didn't harbor any romantic thoughts. To her, this urely an academic exge nothing more, nothing less.

  The same went for Kaminari. He wasn't ied in underaged girls, regardless of Yaoyorozu's maturity and developed appearance. His focus was on his goals and ambitions. He had no time for distras like love.

  But as with life, things rarely go as pnned. Who knows what the future holds? Only time will tell.

  "Kaminari!"

  Just as the luxury car from Yaoyorozu's family arrived at the school gates, and Kaminari was about to get in, he suddenly heard a voice calling his name.

  "Kyoka? What's up?" Kaminari turned around in fusion, notig Jiro approag. Yaoyorozu stood silently beside him, watg.

  Jiro seemed slightly out of breath, but she posed herself before speaking. "What you said this m… were you serious?"

  "What did I say this m?" Kaminari asked, scratg his head before a grin spread across his face. "Oh, you mean the Pikachu band?"

  Jiro nodded, nervously clutg her bag. "Yeah…"

  "Of course, I was serious! Why wouldn't I be?" Kaminari said with enthusiasm. "How about tomorrow? It's Sunday, and we're off school. We head to my home studio, talk through the band's details, and maybe even work on our first track!"

  Jiro's face lit up. "Really? That sounds great!"

  Seeing her happy expression, Kaminari smiled back. "Yup, no problem at all! It'll be fun."

  With that, Jiro waved goodbye to both Kaminari and Yaoyorozu, quickly hurrying back toward the school, likely to join Kirishima and the others for their little 'meeting.'

  As Kaminari watched her retreating figure, he couldn't help but shake his head with amusement. "What a cute girl," he thought to himself.

  "Shall we?" Yaoyorozu asked, stepping into the car with quiet excitement. Kaminari followed suit, grabbing the car door as he was about to step in when—

  "Kaminari! See you tomorrow!"

  He stopped mid-step, turning around in fusion, but saw no ohere. Shrugging, he got into the car.

  As the luxurious vehicle began to drive off, none of them noticed the slender figure standing by the Hero Cates. Jiro Kyoka, once again, had e to watch the car leave, her eyes fixed on the glowiaillights until they disappeared from view. She bit her lip, turned around, and walked bato the school.

  "See you tomorrow..." she whispered to the empty sky, her words carried away by the soft breeze.

  Meanwhile, ba the sidoriya had just returo the , his arm ed in bandages. In a different room, the teachers were gathering once more this time, led by Principal o review the audio and video recs that All Might had brought back.

  This time, the room wasn't as crowded as earlier in the day. Many of the older teachers had left, busy with their own work. But those who mattered most were still present: Aizawa, the homeroom teacher of Css 1-A, the Css 1-B homeroom teacher, and of course, Midnight.

  Normally, Midnight would have returo Saitama where her office was located, but upon hearing that the meeting was about Kaminari, she decided to stay.

  "Alright," Principal Nezu said as the recs finished pying. "What do you all think?"

  All Might's expression was unusually serious, while Aizawa remained ptive.

  After a moment, Aizaoke up. "This kid… Kaminari… He has a level of emotional intelligence far beyond his peers. And unlike Yaoyorozu, it's not just about IQ. He has a deep, unique uanding of the huma."
