Winter is kicking my a**

Somewhere at an offshoot security office, it was deadly quiet. The only noise inside was the muffled grunting of restrained security guards.
"We have a little problem" a voice interrupted the silence as it spoke to the phone.
["What might the problem be? Wolfram"] A gruff voice came from the other side of the phone.
"You didn't mention All Might being at I-Island, it's kind of a big problem" Wolfram was alerted when All Might arrived at the Island, his arrival was a huge wrench in their plans. He wasn't willing to fight All Might just for a small job.
["All Might... Hmm, it's indeed a problem, but don't worry the next shipment will have something that will help"] The voice on the other side answered after a bit of contemplation.
"Sure, just increase the play a bit, I didn't plan to fight All Might of all days" Like all people, Wolfram was powered by money, just a small salary bonus could make him risk his life.
["Money isn't an issue"] The voice answered, much to the delight of Wolfram, after clenching his fist in victory Wolfram continued speaking
"Good, now onto the plan, I think--" *Thwop*
Wolfram was suddenly interrupted by a strange sound, turning his gaze behind him he narrowed his eyes. He could've sworn he heard something right behind him.
["Is there something wrong?"]
"I think I heard something" Wolfram lowered his phone slowly turning around, and quickly signaling to one of his subordinates he quickly returned to the call.
"I will call you back later, I have something to deal with"
["I look forward to good results"] was the last thing the voice said before Wolfram hung up.
"Check around the perimeter for intruders" Wolfram ordered his subordinates, but he quickly added before they left.
"check every nook and cranny, we don't know what quirk someone might use to spy" Wolfram sighed before turning to his right-hand man.
Unfortunately, Wolfram didn't account for his spy already listening to him. Up inside a vent, a very conspicuous black fog was resting, a thin silver wire was extending out of it, every word Wolfram said resonated with the wire sending the sound directly into Rimuru's ears.
"How long will it be until the shipment arrives?" Wolfram asked indifferently.
"It should arrive by evening sir" The right-hand man answered quickly.
"Might I ask, but what is our plan?" The right-hand man raised enough courage to ask Wolfram.
"We're going to capture All Might" Wolfram chuckled slightly while staring out the window, his gaze observing the passersby.
"... Are you literally out of your goddamn mind?"
"Who said that!" Wolfram suddenly turned around as he heard a voice he didn't recognize.
***********************************
"What were saying Rimuru?" Melissa asked as she heard Rimuru mutter something incomprehensible.
"It was nothing, don't worry about it" I rubbed my ears as they felt a bit itchy after Wolfram shouted out of nowhere
"Ah, right my name is Rimuru Tempest" I shook Melissa's hand, however, Mellisa didn't seem to want to let go.
"You're the winner of the sports festival! Oh my gosh!" Melissa's eyes shone like stars, her face began blushing from embarrassment.
"Yes... Indeed I am" I chose my words carefully as Jiro's eyes were directed at me, her gaze felt like daggers in my back. Soon after Mellisa let go of my hand she invited us to tour the I-Expo together.
I of course agreed because I was actually curious about the tech in the MHA world. Seeing the anime and living in it are two completely different things, heck I just found out today that lightsabers exist!
Following behind Meliisa we soon made our way to the 'Robotics exhibit', and as expected there were many robots and mechs displayed and demonstrated.
"Oo oo! My papa built this one!" Mellisa pointed at one of the robots, its gigantic frame made of metal gave it a heavy-duty look yet it seemed to be hovering in the air with no problem.
"I remember him mentioning experimental repulsion technology, using 'Blah Blah smart words smart words"' Melissa continued to explain how the mech in front of us worked but I was barely understanding every 2nd word.
"Ah! Deku-kun! You're here for the I-Expo too?" Hearing a familiar voice, we all turned around to see Uraraka, Mina, and Yaoyorozu waving at us.
Ururaka seemed to not mind as she began running towards Midoriya before freezing, seeing as Midoriya was standing next to a blonde girl.
"Oh ho, It seems you are enjoying yourself Deku-kun" Ururaka gave a cold glare at Mellisa while Midoriya sweated profusely.
"Hey Rimuru and Jiro! Such a coincidence meeting you after you ran away" Mina seemed to stare at the two of us with a cold smile, it was now my turn to sweat profusely.
"Run away? Whatever could you mean? I was just going out to get a milkshake..." I averted my gaze while whistling.
"Eh? You like milkshakes? What kind? My favourite is chocolate" Mina the airhead seemed to completely forget her anger as she began asking questions with a smile.
"Ah! Milkshakes great idea! Let's go!" Midoriya who was stuck in a rock and a hard place seemed to find a perfect excuse to use. Ururaka who had seemingly forgotten her competition with Mellisa agreed to go.
....................
"Oh, Rimuru and Jiro... Your back... and you brought friends" Kaminari was resting at the outdoor table in front of the cafe, his eyes hinted at an infinite amount of exhaustion. Poor Kaminari didn't have purple-midget to help him out.
"Yeah I guess we're back" I scratched the back of my head, not offering any consolation for him, consider it a revenge for getting shipped with Jiro one too many times, Humph.
Sitting with the group they began to talk, I wasn't really keeping up with anything. I maybe answered some of Mellisa's questions or teased Jiro...
*BOOM*
With a loud rumble coming from afar it sounded as if someone was getting attacked. As more explosions went off Midroiya eventually grew curious, so we all went to wherever those sounds could be coming from.
...
After a short trek, we finally made it to what looked like a gigantic pit with audience stands surrounding them. Inside the pit was an artificial mountain range, in some places around it were robots strewn about, hearing the sounds of clapping we assumed something just happened.
"And he finished in under 33 seconds!" A female announcer suddenly voiced, looking above the pit we saw a hologram broadcasting this mysterious contender.
"Eh? Kirishima?" Midoriya exclaimed out loud, however, his surprised expression soon turned aghast as the announcer continued.
"And here comes our next contender!" The announcer made way for Bakugo to step forward, hearing a countdown Bakugo bent down.
As soon the buzzer sounded he was already flying towards the first robot, exploding its face off. Strafing to the right he dove down towards a river where multiple robots were positioned, exploding them one by one.
"A-Amazing he cleared it in only 15 seconds! We have our new 1st place!" The announcer enthusiastically said, making the crowd cheer loudly
"K-K-Kacchan?!?" Midoriya unconsciously exclaimed loudly, making Bakugo turn his gaze towards him. Seeing Midoriya he felt angry again, flying straight towards him.
"Huh, Deku? Why are you here? Damn BASTARD" Bakugo shouted into Midoriya's face, making him take a step back.
"Kacchan stop there's people watching"
"Why should I give a sh*t about other people huh?" Bakugo was about to lunge at Midoriya but suddenly a certain speedster came in between them. The lame kind.
"Midoriya and Bakugo, Stop this immediately! Have you no respect for the technological marvel that is I-Island?" Iida's glasses shone as he began ranting about how much I-Island helped progress technology.
"Why is that boy angry at Midoriya?" Mellisa questioned while tilting her head
"Bakugo is just generally an a**hole" I replied simply, however, I was very easily heard by Bakugo.
"Me? F*ck you girly-face! Damn, Bastard ill beat you up" Bakugo was this close to snapping but was quickly restrained by the efforts of both Midoriya and Iida.
"See? I told ya"
"Don't believe everything Rimuru says, he's probably the biggest a**hole in the class" Jiro decided to ruin my reputation, her bored expression seemingly used to my shenanigans... Am I losing my steam?
....
"Go ahead if you want Deku but you'll never surpass me!" Bakugo shouted at Midoriya before taking a seat in the stands
Soon after Midoriya showed off his explosive power, getting surprisingly close to Bakugo's score.
"16 seconds... so close" Midoriya scratched the back of his head but his lamenting was interrupted by the announcer's shriek
"Kyaaaaa~ So cool! He won in only 14 seconds!" The announcer went into fangirl mode as Todoroki froze the entire mountain in front of him.
"Your class is surprisingly strong" Melssia muttered unconsciously, catching herself she turned towards us and asked.
"Who's the strongest in your class?"
"Its Rimuru" x5
The entire group answered immediately, they already knew that Rimuru was a force of nature, and only Todoroki Midoriya and Bakugo could consider him as a rival.
"Then isn't he going to try?" Mellisa turned to try and find Rimuru only to find him terribly hidden behind a pillar.
"Oui Rimuru you can escape this one, and get first place for me will you~?" Jiro chuckled and winked at Rimuru, like the simp he is he instantly teleported to the starting platform.
................
"Woah! --ahem, it seems we have a surprise contestant! Can he surpass 14 seconds? Ready? 3-2-1 Villain attack!"
Looking at the fake mountain inhabited by robots I decided to use it as a way to test out some of my new skills. As I already tested [Universal wire] and [Perfect Body] I decided to try out [Mimicry] next
'Raphael-san, can I transform into a dragon?'
[You could, but I wouldn't recommend... You are still known to have only 1 quirk. and you might steal Ryukyu's limelight]
'Fair... Just transform me into the [Beelzbub] smoke'
One big advantage that [Mimicry] has is that you can change your molecular composition, giving yourself abilities you didn't have before. Like giving a slime a sense of taste, or turning a human into a gas.
"Eh? Where did he go?" The announcer was initially confused as she simply saw the contestant disappear into the wind like smoke, but soon she was even more surprised as she saw each and every robot erupt with black smoke, erasing its existence.
"Ah! ... The contestant has finished in.... 8 seconds!" With a small silence soon cheers began erupting as the surprise wore off, Bakugo's teeth ground against each other audibly. Shoto was observing carefully how Rimuru used his quirk and Midoriya was simply wide-eyed.
"Wow, his quirk is so interesting... I want to research it!" Mellisa was shocked at the performance in front of her, but soon passion erupted from within her.
"Jiro! What is Rimuru's quirk?"
"..."
"..."
"I don't really know... I don't even Rimuru understand his own quirk... But he can create this smoke that destroys stuff... and he can teleport with it... and he can store things inside it... and he's super strong too... and he can also....."
The more Jiro began listing Rimuru's abilities the more she realized how broken of a power Rimuru has, she felt slightly jealous at him winning the quirk lottery...
