Chapter 22 - Exam and 'Good' News

When I reached the classroom Nezu messaged me about I could just sense Aizawa there. Probably irritated about something, like always. Well, fair enough, since I appeared he had less and less free time.

He expelled his class so now he's the go-to guy for errands in Nezu's eyes. Probably his way of punishing such major actions. Though I can tell Nezu believes in his employee's judgement. If Aizawa didn't consider someone hero worthy then that might not be.

He's only taking some frustration out on the poor sleep-deprived hero because he probably had gotten some flack from the parents.

He always ends up having to take care of me, whether it's being a chauffeur or a tour guide. Now he needed to give me the test Nezu had prepared for me.

Entering the room, I lazily and jokingly greeted him. "Hey sleep-bag how are you doing?"

He didn't even bother responding to my well thought out greeting. He just looked me in the eye and got right to the point.

"The test is on one of the front-row seats, good luck." Saying so he strapped himself in his yellow sleeping bag and started resting his eyes. There were cameras in the room so a supervisor was really just another formality.

__________1 Hour Later__________

Ok... Nezu is a sadistic person. The first page only had a children's crossword puzzle. I chuckled a bit at that, I thought the whole test would be a joke.

The very next page was filled with problems that I had problems with, even with my previous life's college education.

They were from all subjects, from math to morality. I think I hate the Principal now.

Now at the end of the allocated time, I go to hand in my paper. I wasn't even done answering most of the questions.

And Aizawa tells me.

"Oh, by the way, Nezu said to announce you that only the first page is necessary for passing." Even though his face was half-way covered by his scarf I could tell by his tone. He was absolutely smug about it.

I could tell from his eyes that he was really proud of his actions.

I take back my previous statement, Nezu is alright, Aizawa is sadistic. He purposefully waited till the end, just to watch me struggle...

In retrospect, I should've been kinder to him. But it's too late for that I will get my revenge Eraser...

After the test, I went to Nezu's office. Knocking on the door like a civilised person. He told me to come in. After a quick greeting, I got straight to the point.

"Nezu, I want to ask about the Licence. When will I get it?"

"You most likely need to wait until tomorrow. If I just give it to you directly people will question the validity of the test you were given."

Fair enough. At least I don't have to wait much longer. But the next piece of news he told me about was quite decent.

"I managed to talk about your camera idea to the court in charge of your case. They agreed to it, rather reluctantly I might add." He was a bit happy when he spoke.

"You will receive a small bracelet, it has a 360 camera installed inside it." He started explaining more about the procedure.

"You will also don't need to worry about contacting the police to take a villain you have incapacitated. Since you will be monitored you can just concentrate on your work." That was at least somewhat reassuring. Now I didn't have to worry about someone slowing me down. But Nezu continued.

"The bracelet will arrive next month. It's currently being made on I-Island. The police wanted a camera that could keep up with you and that could still take some damage" Well, I had hoped they had something in stock, but I guess I will have to be assigned a supervisor.

I think they might want me back on the streets to scare the villains back into hiding. The heroes have been doing a decent job at suppressing the rising tide. But my presence could do so more efficiently.

"Well, do you have any idea who will be my partner for the next month?" I was a bit curious about this.

"Well, as of now, the government has decided to put the number 17 hero on the clipboard, The Rabbit Hero: Mirko will be your supervisor."

This will be bad, from what I remember she absolutely hates teaming up with others. Now I can only guess that she is being forced into this because otherwise, I can't see her accepting something like this.

"Well, that's interesting. Thank's for the help Principal!" I didn't want to talk about the test. It was already bad enough that Aizawa screwed with me.

I thanked Nezu for his efforts. And made my way out of his office.

I remember her being fast, but I still think she will slow me down a bit. I didn't have much choice now. Becoming a licenced hero was going to take a while. But I couldn't have remained a vigilante. Since my first sighting on camera, I knew my identity was going to be discovered.

I didn't want to become a runaway vigilante, that would be a lot more annoying than getting arrested. It would mean that, no matter how much I helped the public, both the police and the heroes would constantly try and catch me.

With my strength getting caught would be impossible. But I didn't want to deal with the authorities at every step of the day. I also want to have a future. I still want to go to high school and maybe college later. I can keep being a hero as a side gig. But I eventually want to get an actual job.

Being a hero might be considered a profession in this world, but I don't want to spend my time fighting weak villains for the rest of my life. I needed something to do besides reading Manga and Heroing.

My future looks good right now. The authorities will stop bothering me after a year or two. I will finish high school here then I'll be completely free to do whatever.
