《A Little Intelligence Never Hurt anybody》Chapter 3
Advertisement
It's been 2 months since the testing of Hatsume's 'baby' and Izuku wishes to never speak of it again.
Speaking of things Izuku never wants to be brought up again, Izuna's going to U.A entrance exam for the hero course... great, just..... excellent.
So now Izuku has to see her off.... perfect, just peachy...
Ignoring the stares, Izuku got out the limousine and opened the door for the spoiled princess. "Thank you, Satoshi-Kun~." Said Izuna, thinking she was charming, Izuku bit his tongue. "It is not a problem, young miss."
And with that she left, and so did the limousine. Sighing, Izuku looked up at the people still in awe. "I believe you all have an entrance exam to participate in?" Stated Izuku in a questioning tone, that snapped them out of their senses and they rushed into the school.
"Idiots..."
☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆
Izuku sat in silence while the other participants stared at his uniform. "Attention all." Called out a man with a large yellow helmet that Izuku thought kinda look like a T-rex head. "My name is Power Loader and I'll be your examiner."
"We have multiple different scraps here for you to build anything you want, points will be added via how impressive the invention, how long it took you to make it, and how helpful said invention is for any one hero of your choosing. Start now."
Many students rushed towards the scraps, hoping to find anything useful to them. 'Idiots.' Thought Izuku, standing in the back. 'Did they not hear the last part of Power Loader's speech? They're just grabbing what they can get.'
'Just think of a hero with an easy quirk to boost.' He thought it over a bit more, watching Hatsume make something akin to a jet pack while giggling to herself. 'A simple quirk...' He looked down at his hand, the index and middle finger sparked. 'That's it!'
☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆
"Time's up!" Shouted Power Loader over the noise of the examines, many stopped and looked up from their inventions, others panicked either internally or externally, maybe even both.

Izuku looked at his invention in silent joy, he heard Hatsume's cackle from across the room and felt a tingling in his spine. "Never again.." He said quietly.
"Examine 546." He looked over to Power Loader and a man in a black suit with a clipboard. "What is your invention?" Izuku stepped aside and showed them a black cube with elaborate markings. "What is it..?" Asked Power Loader in uncertainty. "Gauntlets." Izuku said simply. "What??"
"They're gauntlets. Here, let me show you." He picked up the cube with one hand and with the other he pulled it across his palm, the examiners watched in fascination as the cube broke down and moved where his off hand directed it. Seeing the cube cover the entirety of his inner hand, he flipped his hand over and pulled it onto his knuckles.
Once he was done the cube-now-gauntlet went up to his bicep, deciding to show off a bit he made and an open hand with his left and a fist with his right before punching his open hand, the examiners watched as the gauntlet moved in a wave-like motion and transferred to his left hand, leaving him with two gauntlets that went up to his forearms.
"Amazing... what can it do?" Ask Power Loader, many examines watched in interest. "It builds up electricity and releases it with a punch, I made them with the pro hero Death Arms in mind, I heard about an incident with a villain made of sludge that gave Death Arms a real hard time. With this, he'll be able to touch him with no problem, it'll pack one hell of a punch too." He finished, with a lame joke at the end for good measure.
"That's incredible! To be able to make such a thing and make it so portable is unheard of! Congratulations on your invention." Power Loader praised while the man behind him nodded and wrote on his clipboard furiously. "Thank you for the kind words, Power Loader." Said Izuku, bowing in gratitude.

"Hotshoooooot!" Called out a voice, giving Izuku slight panic before stumbling forward when the bearer of said voice rocketed towards him and latched onto his back like a koala. "Ah... hello, Hatsume.."
"Hotshot, you never told me you could turn babies into boxes! Oh, hey you're really muscley.."
"Why do you have to say it like that!? Oi, hey! Keep your hands up here at least!" Said Izuku, grabbing her wrist before her wandering hands could get anywhere lower than his flat stomach.
"I assume you know each other?" Asked Power Loader, both nodding in response.
"Acquaintance."
"Test dummy!"
"Oi! Don't call me that!" Izuku shouted in protest, walking out with Hatsume still attracted to his back and the support item still in his possession. "Why not?"
"Because I'm not!"
"But you-"
"I know I did!"
The two continued bickering while Power Loader and the other examines watched them leave.
"But when will-"
"It was a one time thing!"
I was walking out with my old friend Bakugo Katsuki, a grude girl of average height and short ash blonde hair. I haven't seen her in years but we've chatted through calls and text. "So scandalous!" I heard as that blue haired guy from the entrance exam speed walked pass two people at the school gate.
"Come on, pleeasssee?"
"For the last time, no!"
I looked over to see Satoshi-Kun with a pink haired girl with goggles, she was hanging onto him with her arms around his neck. Suddenly, she used something in her boots causing her blast her around Satoshi-Kun, still holding onto his neck.
"Oi, don't do that! You could have gotten yourself hurt, idiot!" Said Satoshi-Kun, holding the girl bridal style after her rocket boots died down. The girl giggled. "You're such a tsundere, hotshot."
"Wha- no I'm not!" Shouted Satoshi-Kun, blushing hard. "Yes, you arrrreee~." Said the girl, poking his flush cheek.
"The hell..."was all I heard from Katsuki as the two continued to bicker? Flirt? Whatever, I decided to walk up to them and make my presence known.
The two looked at us. "Ah." Was all Satoshi-Kun said, dropping his expression to the blank one I'm used to seeing. "Young miss, how can I help you?"
"Who is this woman, Satoshi-Kun?"
"This is Hatsume Mei, an acquaintance." Was all he said as that Hatsume girl kept poking at his face.
"And that?"
"Gauntlets with the ability to store and release electricity." Satoshi-Kun stated simply, putting the pink haired girl back to her feet, though he didn't stop said girl from taking his hand and examining it.
"Where the hell did you even get it?" Asked Katsuki from behind us, Satoshi-Kun's eyes narrowed in recognition before answering.
"I made them myself, it's a prototype for curiosity's sake. Hatsume don't do that, you'll hurt yourself." He explained quickly before telling the pink mechanic off, said girl just pouted and took away her screwdriver from his hand.
"Now then, shall we go?" Satoshi-Kun asked, the limousine driving in behind him. He opened the door for me. "Will miss Bakugo be accompanying?"
"A-ah, yeah, she'll be coming with us, right Kat?" He nodded at the response and gestured for us to enter the car, as we got in he looked to that Hatsume girl who waved and said. "See ya' later hotshot!"
"Likewise, Hatsume."
"Why'd you lie to them?" Asked Bakugo looking at the black haired boy in butler attire.
"You know as well as I do why I chose to keep my identity from them, Kacchan."
She stared at him a bit longer before looking away and nodding begrudgingly. "Yeah, I get it."
"Look to the bright side of things, I'll be able to make all the support items you want, Queen Explosion Murder." He teased before walking to his door. "Keep a watch on the princess tonight, will you? I'll make something nice for breakfast as thanks."
"Sure, whatever...."

Does Deus have what it takes to survive, or has he found himself trapped in a plot he has no hope of escaping? Note: This story has a slow-build and takes awhile for the pace to get going.

8 152Scenario 66
Silven isn’t too happy when he stops to consider his miraculous prison escape, a guiding voice on the air and the herd of terrifying black knights hunting him down and realises he may be important. Equally, he’s not going to be too happy when he learns he’s nothing more than a character in a video game in chapter 3.8. There’s just no pleasing some people. But by the time of this realisation, Silven is all-powerful and all-arrogant, with a couple of game-breaking businesses under his belt. And when he finally understands he has been meddling with the very fabric of his own reality, the damage may already have been done. This fiction contains: * Approx. 4,342,213 video game tropes, mechanics and cliches * Very light levelling and business development (but no tables. Other than the one on the cover). * A rather acquired taste in dry, sarcastic humour. * 0 dragons. Why no dragons, man? Chapters will be released EVERY DAY, in order to sufficiently punish you for all the bad things you've done in life.
