"Work Studies?" asked a confused student.
"Yes work studies, it is a step that must be taken by every student in their first year to at least have an idea about what they will face in the future.
Here is the list of heroes that had selected students to attend their agency. This year we had an influx of invitations from many major heroes across the country."
Aizawa showed the list where each student's name had a corresponding number of invites they had gotten. Just like in cannon Todoroki had the greatest number of invites bordering 6500. Basically, more than half of the Japanese heroes had invited him. Well, seeing his potential and connections, they must have surely thought that getting in his good books while he is still young will be beneficial and practically I can't deny that. Though he also seemed to have invites from oversees as well.
Bakugo was second with over five thousand invites and the rest was also generally like in cannon. Except for the case of Deku. He had a total of five invites. But among them one was Mirko and the other was best Jeanist. Mirko must have invited him because of his strength and might have thought about sparing with him. Jeanist on the other hand is one of the heroes who can be described as a mother hen. He does invite a few students, and I am sure he had not invited Todoroki. He invites strong students with extreme potential but has a major flaw. He invited Bakugo seeing his character and he must have seen Deku and if my guess is right, had invited him seeing his lack of control.
In the first battle with All For One, he had acknowledged Jeanist's skill and stated that only he had the ability to use the quirk of control fibres so effectively. He might have thought that he will be able to help Midoriya control his quirk in a better manner. The other three might have also seen his potential as well. The chances are those three heroes had a way to heal if his injuries if he gets wounded and they must have thought about investing in him seeing that he was very effective in using his quirk when controlled.
But that's not what he needs right now. Mirko will help him increase his body strength with her training and make him handle more of his quirk and Jeanist can help him fine tune his control so that he does not waste any energy and would be able to control the other quirks he will gain in the future easily. But now that the danger had increased, he can't be picky about it and has to do both, and the only way to do that is by asking the guy who trained the last user to control One For All perfectly.
I had already contacted Torino about taking Midoriya for his work studies. He was reluctant at first but more details about the attack that happened in UA and the Nomu that was captured having multiple quirks made him realise the seriousness of the matter and the importance of making sure that the successor is trained well. This time, he will not have to spend his time teaching Midoriya how to control his powers, so the chances are he will teach the kid some battle skills before the Hero Killer incident.
As I was contemplating all of this, I looked towards Ida and found him sharply looking at the list that he had gotten. I looked nearby and found Aizawa had noticed it too. We nodded at each other as the chances of my prediction had increased.
"Well, for the one's that did not get invited, you don't have to worry because they will be allowed to participate in the work studies with a hero selected by UA which will be an amazing experience as well" I said reassuring the ones who did not get invites.
After that Midnight came to make all the students take up their hero names. While I got out of the room after saying that they can comer to me for advice for the type of hero agency they wanted to go and went to my office. What I did not expect was that two students did come and what they asked for was entirely different.
"I would like to have my work studies done under your supervision" I just stared at Shoto Todoroki who just came to my office and asked this question straight away.
"And by me you mean?"
"I would like to have my work studies with Blood lightning."
"Okay, I am flattered at the choice you made but I gotta say no."
His expression showed his frustration at that, and he asked.
"Why?"
"Well, there are a few reasons for that, but the main point is I can't teach others at all whiles being a hero."
He was really surprised at the answer, looks like he was waiting for me to say that he is weak or something.
"You know my MO before in my career right."
He nodded at that. My MO of doing things in an instant where the people I saved, and the criminals I took down only saw a spark of lightning was really famous that most of my fans are actually attracted by my efficiency in doing things that way. One time in a really rare interview, even Endeavor had admitted to the fact that my record and way of doing things was impeccable. A lot of people were surprised at that including me.
"Todoroki-kun, work studies are a way of young heroes to experience how to be a hero while assisting a pro hero. But the way I do my work is mostly alone with a few officers or sometime Aizawa in the comms. The way I do my work will leave nothing much for anyone to learn so hanging out with me will be a waste of your hero studies."
He calmly nodded at that seemingly understanding my viewpoint. I would not have minded taking him with me. But taking someone without a quirk like mine with me will be holding back my full skills and other than giving a few advice, the best person who can train Shoto was his father.
"You know who you should go to for your studies right?"
Todoroki nodded at that and went away.
Now I came face to face with the other student who wanted my advice.
Katsuki Bakugo.
