Becoming #1 With Stun-Gun Hero!! - Chapter 133. Results!
We all got changed out of our costumes and waited back inside the large waiting area. I was sitting down together with the girls. We were all just resting up while talking about their experiences on the exam. Shoto, Jin, Deku, Uraraka, and Ida all came around to talk about it as well. I was mostly just resting from the amount my body was sore. “Are you still feeling pain from lifting that rubble?” Jin asked me with worry in his voice. Everyone then stopped and looked at me. I sighed and looked at Jin with a deadpan expression. The girls started to poke and prod me to check I was ok.
“I’m fine. I just lifted more than I probably should.” I sighed just remembering how I felt my heart was about to leap out of my chest. It was strange feeling how fast my heart was going while barely moving, and not one I really wanted to feel again. Everyone didn’t believe my explanation and asked Jin to recall what happened.
I was about to stop him, but was stopped by Kyoka, and Mina with darkened smiles. They sat me back down and waited for the witness to prove my guilt. He explained what happened, and the more he talked the worse everyone’s expressions were getting at me. I shrunk into my seat and drank some of my water. “What did you do to yourself?” Deku was the one who asked, and he was not pleased at all. I paused for a moment. “I do not recall.” I was then stabbed by Kyoka in my side and reeled back. “Stop! That’s not good for me right now!” I yelled, grabbing my sore side.
“So you did do something.” Mina then spoke while tilting her head. I avoided her gaze and spoke quietly. “I may have made my body release excess adrenaline to help increase my strength.” Everyone sighed and groaned at my admission. All of the girls sighed, but almost expected this thing to happen. Mina flicked my forehead and Kyoka stabbed my side. Himiko was about to add on by stabbing me, but I caught her blade while she giggled. Mina frowned but had a small loving smile behind it as she talked to me.
“I’m not happy that you decided to experiment like that again…” She paused for a second before continuing on. “But, I know that was totally tame, compared to the other things you’ve done. I know you are making an effort, and I can see that. I totally don’t agree with you doing this, but I know that you are trying.” I started to smile back at her lovingly as she petted my hair, but we both stopped when we realized the rest of the class was watching. I reddened up and started sparking in embarrassment.
Each classmate had their own reactions to our PDA. The girls seemed a little jealous, but knew that Mina was the only one I could openly be like this with. Unless they were ready for that next step. Himiko would have jumped to tell everyone that she was also trying to get into our relationship at first, but the girls talked to her about all of the looks she might get, again. Uraraka was smiling with a blush, probably thinking that having a relationship with Deku could be possible. Ida was waving his arms talking about how it was good we were together, but that we must prohibit showing it in class matters. Deku and Shoto were grinning for different reasons.
Deku was just happy seeing me happy. Shoto was grinning at my embarrassment. Most of the other boys were happy for me as well, but a bit jealous of me. Mineta was not happy with me in the slightest. He was crying tears of blood, and was only being held back from Sero taping him. After a bit of talking, we were interrupted by Shiketsu students. The hairy student and Camie were in front. The hairy student spoke up first.
“Hello, you are Kaminari, correct?” My embarrassment was immediately gone as I looked at Shiketsu High students. “Yes.” I spoke plainly and concisely, not allowing any intimacy to be portrayed between us. I scowled at Inasa, as he pulled his hat to cover his eyes. The hair student brought my attention back to him. “We would like to apologize for anything that may have been said to you, or your friends. Some of us get a little too competitive, and have bad habits of forcing their views onto others.” He glanced at Bakugo, and Bakugo scoffed while scowling and turned his head away.
Normally I wouldn’t agree with his attitude, but today was different. I looked back at the Shiketsu students with a look, not much better than his. “I accept the apology, I may have said my opinions too harshly.” I said my apology half heartedly and was about to leave, but was stopped by Camie. She grabbed my shoulder to stop me and get my attention. I looked at her and her sultry smile. I frowned but she had leverage on the girls right now, so I had to abide at least this much.
“We just want to be friends. You let me go, so that totes shows something.” I rolled my eyes at her. I wasn’t really in the mood right now to be talking with this girl. I didn’t trust that she didn’t have some ulterior motives for getting closer to me. I sighed and just pointed at Inasa before talking. “My problem isn’t the school. It’s that one of you had the nerve to verbally attack one of us, for no other purpose than to just showcase their own hatred. We may be able to work together, but me being friends with him? Not until he gets Shoto’s forgiveness.”
I pushed Camie’s hand away and moved back over to my classmates. Just as the Shiketsu students were about to talk more, another announcement played. We were told to head out to the field to see our scores. All of the examinees ran out to the field in excitement, pushing us with them. ‘Ugh, this reminds me of the start of the festival.’ I sighed internally as I was being mosh pitted. I was pushed out to the field, and looked around to see anyone I recognized. I couldn’t, so I just looked up at the announcer. He began his speech with a startle of almost sleeping on his feet. ‘Dude, just get some sleep.’
“Regarding the scoring system… We of the heroes public safety commission, along with the members of H.U.C… Were deducting points on two issues as we watched you perform. Essentially… We judged you on your ability to act flawlessly during a crisis. Anyhow, these are the names that passed in alphabetical order. Keep everything I’ve said in mind, and take a look.” He pointed his hand to the screen as it began to light up, showing a list of names that passed the exam.
I checked for my name first, and let out a sigh of relief when I saw it there. I then looked for Jin’s and Toga’s. I smiled when I saw both of their names too. ‘I knew they could be brought on the right path.’ I looked over at Shoto’s name on the board as well. My smile grew at the sight of him getting what he deserves. ‘I always felt like he should have gotten his license here. He was always trying to focus and Inasa kept bothering him.’ Just thinking of Inasa ruined my mood and I went over to find everyone in class.
I walked around for a bit, before feeling a chill down my spine. I immediately took action, and stopped the knife aimed at my side. I smiled a bit while looking back at Himiko. “You’re a hero now, so make sure to only try this with me, ok?” She giggled and nodded at me. She then put her knife away and grabbed onto my arm. She giggled as she nuzzled my arm and brought me over to the rest of the girls. I looked at all of their smiles and knew instinctively that they all also passed. I smiled and laughed at the joy of having everybody enjoying themselves.
