Long after Momo left the ring and joined the place where the students of class 1-A were seated, the excitement could still be felt all around.
In terms of how flashy it was, this fight seemed rather plain and boring compared to the other. But the pro heroes understood just how dangerous those kinds of plain fights were.
“*Crack*, So this is Momo.”
High up in the VIP place, Mirko chuckled a little as she remembered the fight while biting on a rice cake.
“Oh? It seems like you already knew about her.”
On the side, Hawk asked with his usual nonchalant expression as he threw some candies in his mouth.
“Hum...I wouldn’t say that I know her, but I have heard about her. I must say, I am not disappointed. That girl really knows how to kick ass.”
“You think so too? Hum, I think I will take her under my wings.”
This time it was the dragon hero who spoke. She had a large smile on her face as her eyes traced to Momo who was already discussing with Kuroha in the stadium.
“Hum, I thought you already had that third-year girl. What was her name again?”
“Nejire. Nejire Hado. She is really a gentle girl full of life. It also doesn’t hurt that she is likely one of three strongest students in all UA.”
“True. By the way, bird-Kun, what about you? Do you have your eyes on someone?”
“Well, While his performance was a little disappointing, I am still rather interested in that boy, Tokoyami. Bird type quirks are rather rare. There’s so many ways he could have better used his quirk.”
Nezu, who was still sipping on his tea intervened. “Well, you guys are talking from your experience as pros. Those students of mine are still pretty wet behind the ear. But, I am sure that the internship will allow them to become better.”

“True.” Conceded Hawk. Then, as if remembering something, he asked, “By the way, what about this demon king vs Yuusha thing. Is he really that strong?”
““Hehe””
Mirko and Nezu smirked at the same time.

[Now that the first round is all done! Let’s move quickly!! to the next round after a short break.]
---
Izuku was walking alone in the hallway as he tried to distract himself. During the first round, Bakugo qualified himself after beating Uraraka, while he did by beating shinso. A bitter smile formed on his face,
‘To think I nearly lost against someone so much weaker than me.’
Shinso's quirk wasn’t really suited for the front line, but this didn’t mean that he should be underestimated. Mind control was kind of scary. As for Uraraka, a feeling of pride filled his heart as he thought back to her fight. The way she lead on Bakugo all during the fight was truly spectacular and worthy of respect.
*Slap*
He slapped his cheek as he decided to gather himself back. Those fights were already in the past. His next fight would be in no way easy. After all, he knew better than anyone else. Just how crazy Minegata's quirk could be. After all,
‘If Minegata had opted for the hero course... I might not have been the first.’

Meanwhile, Kuroha and Momo were leaving the waiting room dedicated to the students of class 1-A.
Momo was all fidgety as she walked next to him. She wanted to do so much right now, but she was too shy to act in such a way in a situation where they could be seen. It was then that she feel a hand on her head, she turned curiously only to take an arrow in the heart as she was meet by a dazzling smile coming from Kuroha,
“Good job Momo. I am really proud. Your match was beautiful.”
She could feel the heat on her face as she tried to stammer an answer. Finally, gathering all her courage, she shyly lowered her head as she murmured,
“Don’t you think that...I should get a re-reward…?”
She pitifully finished this sentence as she buried her face between her hands.
‘How shameless.’
Kuroha was a little taken aback before chuckling lightly as he said, “You are right. A good girl should get rewarded. Then…” He smiled slily and bent down and murmured to her ear, “Tonight I will be sure to reward as much as you want.”
If before she was red, now her face was positively crimson as all kinds of ideas surged in her head. Steam could even be seen coming out as her thoughts went back to what her mother referred to as culture.
She was about to give him an answer when the atmosphere seemed to switch from romantic to extremely glacial in an instant. Surprised, she raised her head only to see Kuroha's face completely devoid of emotions as he stared straight ahead of him. She followed his sight and understood everything once she saw who he was looking at.
“Endeavor.”
