Ryo finished his homeworks as he is now 14 years old as his General leader from Ratropolis in its rat size gave him a thumbs up. As Ryo smiled for the complement as he then checked the city as it was bustling with so much activity. From the cheese market, Farms, Granary, Barracks, Tannery, Apartments, Houses, Smithy, Armory, shoe market, and market to buy more card but only one card to purchase. As he watches he then looks at the walls very strong and sturdy as some are wood but there were some expansions which mad rthem into stond and he was thankful about events from Ratropolis some help and some don't like he got the reinforcement card to increase the health of a wall depending on the number of cards holding and he has to reshuffle.

At school with his general leader and his first Rat friend now a shield rat in each shoulders of Ryo. Then entered his school for the last time also holding a wheel of parmesan cheese. His teacher knew about his quirk asked him to get him a wheel of cheese from his quirk and he was specific that he wanted the parmesan cheese. As everyone knew that Ryo was influenced by his rat friends that he was straight up cheese or anything else but also cheese. He already tried many types of cheese from Swiss cheese to, crumbly cheeses and many more types of cheese even getting used to the smells of stinky cheese as his classmates still can't comprehend about the smell. As he entered the class as his classmates asking about he wheel of parmesan cheese.

"Hey Ryo also what's with the wheel of cheese?" One of them asking about the cheese.

"Remember that our homeroom teacher request me to buy him one with my quirk" he said with a blank face as his classmates remember about his quirk.

"Yeah...and also never bring some stinky cheese alright I can't stand the smell" one of the female classmates said

"What? The taste is not that bad I meant its still good I mean look at England with the stinking bishop cheese" he said as the Rats from his shouldes began to drool about the cheese he mentioned until their teacher arrived.

And Ryo then request his rat friend to deliver the cheese to him. As the Rat did and gave the wheel cheese to the teacher.

"Hm..? Oh thank you there little one" he said as the rat then walked and shifted back to its normal rat size and began to climb up to Ryo's Leg and back to his partner's shoulder

Then the teacher then began to announce everyone of Ryo's class. First he got everyone to settle down as he began to announce.

"Alright then you are now in your final years in which you have to prepare yourself for the future." He then lay a stack of Aptitude test for everyone of Ryo's class. But then he continued once more

"Oh what would I expect from you, All of you wanted to be heroes after all" he said as the class cheered as well as their quirks in different shapes and sizes Ryo didn't care but his two rats the General Leader and Shield Rat also part of the cheering.

They both the Chirp and Squeak in high pitches as both raise their swords military leader with his greatsword and the other with his arming sword high. As they wanted their Leader or Mayor of Ratropolis to become a hero. Which he doesn't blame he managed a city and the ability to summon and control rats as well a applying an effects for his rats to become better. He then looks at his cards which at this point has about 30 of them.

Classes continues as usual with the basic education like Math, Science, History, Homeroom, and Etc. After class his rats helped with packing up as well as some of the girls taking picture with the Rats as they find them cute. Social media accounts from those girls are filled with comments like cute or adorable seeing rats like them than those from the sewers. Also him checking in his city then he used the ability to make a ethereal form of the city to look at how it was going. As soon as he was ready he was about to leave he was stopped by 2 bullies. Ryo remember them they always target me that they think my quirk is useless but now he was developed so much through experience in Ratropolis how to lead, Manage, and Protecting his city. They then began to talk brash about Ryo.

"Ryo...you bitch, you think you can be a hero with that useless quirk" one said as the other one snickers.

"Snickering* yeah what are you gonna do with those rats huh? There just rats and rats are-" before he said anything an arrow flew right towards

his direction and it was Ryo's Archers grew into its size of a medium dog and began to shoot arrows then next to the Archer was a Berzerker. It then began to snarling and hissing aggressively as both of the bullies remember how dedicated these rats are to protecting him then followed with the Rat General leader sliding the door close and he smirked the. Unsheathed it's greatsword and Ryo's first friend the shield rat then brandished its sword and it's shield and all of them began to gave the students an all out beat down with arrows from the Archer.

Few Minutes later

The bullies are now injured with bruised, Scrapes and Rat bite marks as well as they are covered in arrows as all of the rats involved then exhaling from their noses from aggression. Ryo knew this would happen but nope they just wanted to continue to ruining their lives.

"Alright guys let's go now we have to get back home then alright" he commanded as all of the rats then leave but the Archer then spits on them right after.
