36 Chapter 36 Clothes actually do the man
A human tank stand right in front of me, his muscles made of pure iron, his eyes dark like a shadow with a blue torch right in the middle, 32 pearls visible on his mouth, his hair made of pure gold, all of this plus his height of 7'3" made him the literal representation of what would imagine when thinking the word hero.
But for me? He meant nothing, sure he was strong, but after seeing Fenrir, and realizing that Eldritch Horror exists, fighting the undead, goblins, and magical wolves I wasn't scared of him.
Wary? Sure.
Scared? Not anymore.
He looks around and visibly cringes when he catches my stare, but he quickly returns to normal and starts talking.
" As some of you might have here trough rumours, I officially became a professor at UA, I will be your Foundational Hero Studies Teacher, and as our first lesson we will have a"
He interrupted his phrase and instead started flexing only then talking again.
" Battle trial."
"HELLLLLLL YEAHHHH." A very excited Bakugo shouted.
Everyone got excited, I was too for clear reasons, and got even more excited at his following words.
" But to fight like a hero, you must look like a hero."
At those words, he moved towards the room's entrance and brought us inside our costumes, in between them I could see mine too, but the secondary equipment I had explicitly requested through Mirko was missing.
But just as that thought passed through my mind All Might brought inside the room a big futuristic-looking suitcase and put it near my costume.
'Never mind, they didn't miss it, I hope they followed my instructions.'
" Now, go change and I will explain to you of this battle trial will work."
We all nodded and dashed towards our costumes.

' Yep, they followed my instructions.' I thought while looking at the weapon in my hand.
It looks like a normal European greatsword, but with one quick button press it became a spear, with another button press and it became an axe and lastly a sword and shield mode, of course, all of these shapes couldn't come out of anything so the mere size and weight of this thing was something no normal human should be able to lift, but I am not a normal human, unfortunately, they made all of the shapes dull, which doesn't really work for me thanks to the effect of Monster Among Humans, but still annoying.
Just to be safe I also had asked for a tactical military knife with the ability to discharge around 50.000 Volts, not enough to kill but enough to stun someone and some throwing knives.
Last but not least my outfit, imagine a medical armour made to be actually usable and not unable to move in and you got it, I had asked for metal armour all the other accessories were added by the hero agency to make me look, and I have to say, I do. ( Image here)
Not wanting to become a young master I stop staring at myself in the mirror and head back to the training area, noticing that I was the last to arrive, wearing metal armour is hard ok?
When I arrived I caught everyone's attention, at first due to the sound I was making, and next for the aura I emanated.
You don't see a 6' 2" armour-covered human with a sword and shield every day after all.
Uraraka rushed to my side and started spinning around me.
" Wow, that is so cool, it sure fits you, why are the weapons tough?"
" I know how to fight better with weapons than barehanded."
" Duuuuuude, you totally look like a Knight, but not those with shining armour, Nah you ar one of those that stand in the front line with an arrow in the chest and still fight, the greatest man," Kirishima said with a big smile while approaching me.
We started commenting on each other outfits, some more revealing than others, and some cooler than others, seriously? A fucking diaper?
" Perfect now that everyone is settled I will be explaining how the battle trial will work."
.

" Are you ready?" Uraraka asked while looking at me.
" Ready? I have been waiting for this moment." I said while looking at the building right in front of me.
As it unfolded in the anime, I was placed with Uraraka against Bakugo and Iida, and the battle trial objective was the same, either defeat both villains or defend the bomb.
Wanting to win as quickly as possible, I use Sense Acuity to sharpen my sense and pinpoint the floor where the bomb had been placed and the two had decided to stay.
I first started with my hearing capability, when I wasn't able to pick up anything, I decide to use my nose, and this time I was able to understand where they were.
" They are on the last floor," I told Uraraka.
"How do you know?"
" Because I know Bakugo, he is gonna only want to fight me and nothing else, so he thinks that placing the bomb on the last floor is the best choice, unfortunately, he isn't as sharp as he thinks he is," I told her, mixing both bullshit and truth to create the perfect lie, my charisma and Silver Tongue also helping in making it believable.
" I believe you, you know Bakugo better than anyone here, so what do we do?"
"When All Might give us the start you grab my back and by all means not let go."
" What?"
" I have a way to get to the top floor in a few seconds, but you won't be able to keep up."
"... Do I really have to do this?"
" You be left behind?"
"... Fine." She says in defeat.
We then wait for the start of the battle trial, and the exact second I heard the intercom starting to make a sound I activate all my buffs, ready to show off.
" START." All Might shouted.
Uraraka leapt on my back and quickly tangled herself around it, being sure she was safe I jumped straight up the second floor and started climbing the walls by piercing the wall with my fingers thanks to the effect of the Tear skill.
In 5 seconds we had already reached the last floor, surprising both Iida and Bakugo, who was about to leave the floor most likely wanting to search for me, I guess I found him first.
I entered the floor and looked at them both, I reconnected my sword and shield and clicked on one of the buttons, making it shift to its greatsword form.
I stepped on the ground, nearly breaking it, while a big smile formed on my face.
" Let's dance."
