After my chat with Aizawa I went to the stands to watch the next activity which was cavalry.
What Aizawa said surprised me as I didn't expect a compliment from him, but it seems that my action caught his attention.
Saito: I have the popcorn ready. Time to see the chaos of this round.
As much as deep down I wanted to participate, what I did was necessary, I don't want to ruin their progress.
But anyway, I'm not here to discuss my choice, whether I made it right or not, you're here for the round that's happening.
Well, even though I tried to get more students inside the stadium, the round took place as in the original story without any changes.
It was good to watch the round from the box, seeing Izuku going through problems with having a million points, Shoto showing his Sasuke side and the barbecue skewer showing his Vegeta side.
At the end of the round the winners are:
Team Todoroki in 1
Team Bakugou in 2
Team Shinso in 3
Honestly I forgot about this guy since he barely appears in the story properly so it's very easy to forget he exists.
And lastly, Midoriya team in 4th place. Obviously he started crying when he saw the result, Deku isn't Deku without him crying in every ep.
After the round it was time for lunch so everyone will have 2 hours of rest for the next activity.
Saito: Well time to get more popcorn.
I get to the stairs and was going to go down to buy more popcorn when I see All Might and Endeavor.
💭Jeez!
I hide just in time before one of the two notices my presence and I hear their conversation.
All Might: I haven't seen you in 10 years since we spoke to the press, then I saw you here so I wanted to say hi.
Endeavor: I understand, well now that it's over you can leave.
All Might:HAHAHAHAHA!!! Why all this coldness?
💭Hehehe "coldness" hehe.
Endeavor:Grrrrrrr.
All Might: His son, young Shoto, did very well using only half of his power. Were you the one who raised him?
💭Educated wouldn't be the word I'd say to describe Shoto's story, I'd say it's obsession with the number 1 that led to what happened to @¥#&$$££ (spolier)
Endeavor:What are you trying to say?
All Might: Ahhh! I just want to know how to educate the next generation.
💭You asked the wrong person All Might. How different things would be if Endeavor were less "warm" and didn't treat his family the way he did, maybe Shoto would have a good &@£#&#£ as an example of admiration.
Endeavor:Do you really think I'm going to say that, you idiot? You're still the same as always and it's making me nervous.
💭Endeavor you always get nervous.
All Might: Sorry.
Endeavor:I want you to remember something! I'm going to make him a hero who will surpass you, that's what he was created for.
All Might:.....what's it like?
Endeavor:And he's in a bit of a rebellious phase now, but he'll still defeat you, I guarantee it!
💭Best father in Boku no Hero ladies and gentlemen, he surpasses even the best father in all universes, which is Darth Vader, the child killer.
Hearing what I wanted to hear I decide to take another way down.
***************
Hours later
I decide to go inside the stadium to get a closer look at the last round and when I arrive I see the girls from my class in cheerleading outfits, I admit it doesn't look bad on them, but I already know who is responsible that's why.
Saito:Hey Kaminari and Mineta.
Mineta/Kaminari: Huh?
*POW!!!*
I knock out the two perverts leaving them face down on the ground and one of my fists is smoking.
Saito *sigh*: I save you from the bad impression and that's what you thank me for?
Jirou: Thanks for that Saito, Mineta and Kaminari deserved it.
Momo:I can't believe I fell for Mineta's trick!
Saito: That's because you're kind by nature so I understand.
Momo:You're not helping Midoriya!
Uraraka:I still think we can use this.
Toru:Exactly Uraraka! Let's put it to rest!
Tsuyu: It seems like only Toru-chan is enjoying it.
Mina:Hey Saito-kun.
Saito:Yes?
Mina:Where were you? Because I didn't see you in the cafeteria.
Saito:Ah! I went to eat early that's why you didn't see me.
Mina:Don't tell me you used your speed?
Saito: Yes.
Mina *sigh*: You could have waited for me.
Saito: Well now it's gone. By the way, Mina, you look good in that cheerleader outfit.
Mine: T-thank you....another thing Saito-
I see that Mina was going to speak again, but Midnight interrupts her talking about the last round and who will fight who.
In the original story, only 2 people gave up, one and Jiro from my class who was affected by Shinso's quirk and another student from class B, but what I didn't expect is to see many other students giving up, not only from class B but also from others. courses withdrawing from participating in the last round.
Of course they used the remaining students from class B to fill the spaces, but what I didn't expect was to hear that another student in my class dropped out and this is the student.
Sero: I don't want to participate either.
All:Nani?!
Midnight: Look, are you sure?
Sero: Yes.
Midnight:So can you tell me why?
Sero: Because there is a student who deserves to be in my place and that student is Saito Midoriya.
💭What?!
Midnight *sadistic smile*:Ohhhh Interesting the student who helped everyone else get through,this is getting interesting.
I couldn't believe that Sero is also leaving, I thought that wasn't going to happen.
Saito: Sero do you know what you're talking about?!
Sero:And of course I know man, that's why I'm nominating you.
Saito:But you who passed the first test...
Sero: For your help. If it weren't for you I wouldn't have passed.
Mina: By the way, Saito, you did that on purpose, didn't you?
Saito:Yes I did, but....
Mina: Why?
I stayed silent and now my whole class is looking at me. I never thought that my plan of not interfering in the festival would go against me.
Saito:Because I didn't want to disturb you.
Izuku:And because of your power, right?
Saito: Yes.
To my surprise, Mina Ashido came up to me, grabbed my blouse and looked at me with an angry expression.
Mina:How can you be so selfish! Do you really think that just because you are strong that you should leave like that?
Saito: Because if I participate, you won't have a chance against me! And I don't want to get in your way!
Mina: Do you think we care about that? I won't be happy knowing that I did my best and you didn't do that and left just to give me a chance, I won't feel like I achieved what I wanted!
Iida:Saito what Mina is trying to say is that even though you are stronger than us, we also want you to participate in the festival.
Saito: You guys.....
Kirishima:Truth, it would be very annoying to know that you didn't participate either.
Momo:I agree.
Bakugou:If you don't accept it, I'll kill you! I want to fight you with everything I have!
Izuku:What Ka-chan is saying is that we want you to participate in the round.
****************
Narrator's view
Everyone in class A wanted Saito Midoriya to participate in the last round, something that the boy himself didn't expect to see this happening, everyone except Prof Aizawa.
Aizawa💭Saito you can try not to get too involved with your colleagues, but one thing I learned from them. That they are all stubborn and if they all want something they will not give up until they get what they want, your actions have not been forgotten by them so this is their way of thanking you.
After that the heroine Midnight looked at Saito and pointed her whip at him.
Midnight:So Saito Midoriya! Are you in or not?
End of Ep
