Therefore, after failing the Hero Course at U.A. High School, Izuku Midoriya successfully advanced to the Support Course, thus initially achieving his goal of entering U.A. High School.
Of course, Midoriya was also warned that he would have to consult with the teachers and get their approval before inventing any more bombs...
After receiving the admission notice, Midoriya called Shinso Hitoshi.
"Shincao, how are things on your end?"
"The Hero Course still messed up, so I re-registered for the General Course."
Things went pretty much as Midoriya had predicted; Shinso Hito managed to defeat not a single robot adversary during the Hero Course exam.
"And what about Tail White?"
"He's very lucky; he's already been accepted into the Heroic Department!"
"Is that so..."
Midoriya paused for a moment, then couldn't help but burst into laughter, which made Shinso on the other end of the phone quite strange.
"Then we need to work even harder and catch up with Wei Bai!!"
"Yes! I won't give up so easily!"
Midoriya's magnanimous words instantly brightened Shinso's slightly depressed mood. Being behind others now doesn't mean he will always be behind.
"Let's do our best, we'll show our skills at the U.A. Sports Meet!"
The U.A. Sports Meet is Izuku Midoriya's next goal. Those who perform well in the sports meet will have the opportunity to be promoted to the Hero Course!
Chapter 31 Support Department
"Izuku, be careful!!"
"No problem, Mom, I'm going to school!"
As she waved goodbye to her child, Midoriya Inoko felt a long-lost joy when she heard that Midoriya Izuku had been accepted into the U.A. Support Department.
"Finally, I don't have to think about being a hero anymore!!"
Izuku's dream mother, Inoko Midoriya, knows better than anyone that her son is very hardworking in his studies, constantly exercising, and secretly doing things behind her back that are unknown to her, but which are probably related to becoming a hero.
However, the harder Midoriya worked, the less Inko wanted her child to become a hero. After all, there were casualties among professional heroes at this stage, and she didn't want to suddenly lose her child one day.
But now things are better. Midoriya went to study in the Support Department of U.A. High School. I heard that it is a place where equipment is developed and researched for heroes. It not only has a bright future, but is also very safe.
"That's wonderful..." Midoriya Inoko wiped away the tears that involuntarily dripped down her face with a handkerchief. The Midoriya family has a tradition of tear sacs passed down through generations, and tears would flow uncontrollably when they were excited.
Izuku had no idea what his mother, Inoko Midoriya, was thinking. He was just excitedly heading to U.A. High School with his backpack, wondering if he would run into All Might on campus. He was really looking forward to it!
Midoriya ran into Shinso Hitoshi at the gate of U.A. High School. After failing their Hero Course exams, they both switched to other subjects, with Shinso being the most common subject at U.A. High School.
The difference between the General Studies and the Hero Studies is that the Hero Studies program trains students to become heroes in the most advanced way. It has the best teaching and school resources, and students who successfully graduate from the Hero Studies program are highly sought-after talents by hero agencies across the country.
The general education program also trains students to become heroes, but it uses a mass-market education. Although it is still a top-tier hero school compared to other schools, the gap becomes immediately apparent when compared to the hero program.
The U.A. High School mentioned also has a Management Department and a Support Department. The Management Department mainly operates the agency, dealing internally with government agencies and police stations, and externally promoting the agency's professional heroes to the media. They are indispensable talents in operations.
The Support Department is mainly a gathering place for development fanatics. U.A. High School has the most liberal school rules, and the Support Department can be said to have taken this freedom to the extreme.
For example, Izuku Midoriya has now arrived at the workshop door of the Support Department. Unlike other departments, the Support Department does not have classrooms. For the invention fanatics in the Support Department, a workshop with complete tools is the best classroom.
However, before he even stepped into the workshop, Midoriya heard a series of explosions coming from inside, and he immediately opened the workshop door.
Faming was covered in soot and was still choking on her breath, while in her hand was a piece of equipment that had exploded and was emitting smoke.
"Fa Muming, what's wrong?"
"Little Midoriya, you exploded when you showed the baby to your classmates. It seems we need to make some adjustments."
The two acquaintances greeted each other, while the other students seemed unfazed, as if it were an explosion!
For the students who came to support the department, explosions were commonplace, happening every three days in small numbers and every seven days in large numbers. At such times, all they needed to do was to record the data.
"Hey, so you're Midoriya, the one who made headlines during the Support Department exam."
At that moment, a man wearing excavator armor on his head greeted Midoriya!
"It's the excavation hero 'Power Loader'!!" Midoriya recognized the person in front of him at a glance. He was a famous inventor among pro heroes and also a teacher at U.A. High School.
"It's quite rare for students to know my heroic name, but I am now your homeroom teacher."
"Power Loader" introduced himself to Midoriya and the other students in the Support Department, while also explaining the rules of the Support Department.
"The Support Department is different from other subjects. Our class has completely free rules, and students can freely use the resources provided by the school for research and invention, but!"
"Freedom also has a relative bottom line. After a semester, the final exam will be an evaluation of the equipment and props you have created. The evaluation system is the same as the entrance exam."
"Students who fail the equipment review will be expelled from U.A. High School. Do you understand?"
The term "power loader" cast a shadow of pressure on the newly enrolled support students before they could even experience any excitement. It's no wonder that this is U.A. High School; any student who has no hope of getting by is destined to be abandoned.
"Of course, I came to U.A. High School to create those adorable babies at will!!"
Faming happily clasped her hands together, her eyes sparkling. A question about equipment review for the final exam? Do you think a genius inventor like her would care about such a trivial matter?
"Understood!"
Thanks to Faming's encouragement, the students in the support department responded to their homeroom teachers one after another, as if the shadow of dropping out of school had no effect on them at all.
"Then I look forward to your inventions! Now, I'll announce the course!"
"Study!"
"well!!?"
The "powered loader" that she just described as a way for students to study on their own surprised Midoriya and the other support science students, except for Akira... She really wanted to have time to test her idea.
"Teacher, did I mention that the Support Department is very free? You have plenty of time to devote to your inventions. If you don't understand anything, just come and ask me, or go to the school library to look up information."
"Aside from the occasional event, you have plenty of free time every day. Dedicate all your energy to invention and creation!"
"If you don't pass the final exam, you're doomed!"
Upon hearing his homeroom teacher's words, "power loader," Izuku Midoriya felt ashamed. The free school spirit of U.A. High School was truly well-deserved; all the time was given to students to use themselves, and those who failed would be eliminated at the end of the semester, while those who succeeded would only become more proficient!
Thus began Izuku Midoriya's life in the support department, and then Akira Hatsume called him aside.
"Little Midoriya, your gear is ready!"
"Huh? It's finally done!!"
Under Midoriya's expectant gaze, Akira took out a pair of roller skates from the box. They had a striking mechanical style, and apart from the alloy shell, the wheels were also made of a special metal, which must have been for some purpose.
"Give it a try!"
At the suggestion of the girl with bright eyes, Midoriya followed her to the open space of the Support Department. This place was specially planned by U.A. High School for the Support Department students to test mobile equipment.
After changing into his roller skates, Midoriya carefully stood on the ground. Although he had seen others wear roller skates, he had never worn them himself and could barely maintain his balance.
"Little Green Valley, try starting it up."
At Mei's prompting, Midoriya instinctively started his roller skates, and then... he went off at breakneck speed!
"Ahhhhh!!"
The wind is blowing, the shoes are running, and Izuku Midoriya is screaming in agony!
The roller skates manufactured by Fume Akira are highly maneuverable, capable of reaching speeds of up to 150 km/h at full speed. Having never worn roller skates before, coupled with the terrifying speed, Izuku Midoriya was practically suffocating.
With his heart pounding in his chest, Midoriya quickly stopped the power from his roller skates, and then he crashed to the ground with the force of the impact, leaving a trail in the process!
"Um... Midoriya, are you alright?"
Akira ran to Izuku Midoriya's side and poked Izuku, who was still wriggling and lying there like a corpse.
"I think... I should learn how to move around in roller skates first."
..............
Thus began Izuku Midoriya's life at U.A. High School, starting with learning how to move freely on roller skates!
Chapter 32 Daily Life at U.A. High School
Izuku Midoriya's daily life at U.A. High School is mostly the same as other support science students, immersing himself in his workshop.
Compared to the classrooms of other students, the science support students are in a machining workshop, which contains all kinds of mechanical equipment, and they can simply apply to the teacher for any materials they need.
"How about smoke grenades? We can add sticky spider webs inside, which can obscure vision during the explosion and restrict the opponent's movement."
Although he didn't get into the Hero Course, the Support Course is currently a better fit for Midoriya's talents, because with all the materials and tools available, all the design schemes he considered can be realized.
"Compared to this, Little Midoriya, look at this jetpack I made. Combined with roller skates, its speed will be amazing!"
The genius inventor girl started manufacturing things on a large scale as soon as she entered the Support Department, and the jetpack she was holding was just made yesterday. She was now looking for Midoriya to test it.
"Forget about that... I'm not good at roller skates at all right now!"
Midoriya awkwardly waved goodbye. While roller skates are easy to learn, mastering roller skates that can reach speeds of 150 km/h requires more skill.
"What a pity, considering how much effort they put into creating this baby!"
It took nearly ten months for Akira to make the roller skates for Midoriya, which also have many hidden functions, but Izuku hasn't even mastered the basics yet.
The rules of the Support Department are quite free. Basically, if you don't come to school, the teachers won't care. This is because the entrance exam is a screening process, and students who can enter the Support Department generally have a tendency to be inventive. Too much interference would be bad for their creativity.
But thanks to the support department's free-spirited school atmosphere, Izuku Midoriya has a new daily routine at U.A. High School.
He would sneak over to other classes whenever Class A of the Hero Course ended, to ask Shiro about All Might's lessons.
Of course, in Class A of the Hero Course, Midoriya also met two unexpected people. One was the brown-haired girl he saved during the entrance exam, named Uraraka Ochako. She also got into Class A of the Hero Course and felt very guilty that Midoriya hadn't been able to get into the Hero Course.
Ochako believes it's her fault; if Midoriya hadn't delayed things by saving her, she probably would have been able to get into the Hero Course.
However, Izuku laughed and explained to her, "Actually, I have no Quirk!"
Ochako Uraraka felt slightly less guilty and also began to sincerely admire Izuku Midoriya.
Of course, there is another person, Katsuki Bakugo.
He naturally didn't give Izuku Midoriya a friendly look when he saw him, and when he learned that Izuku had entered the Support Department, he mocked Midoriya for his overestimation of his abilities when he applied for the Hero Department.
Midoriya doesn't intend to deny anything about this. Failure is failure, and excuses are unnecessary. It is precisely because of failure that one can better recognize one's shortcomings and make up for them.
After returning to school from his internship at Million Heroes, he met with Izuku Midoriya. He congratulated Izuku on his admission to U.A. High School and shared his experiences of traveling and missioning with All Might with Izuku.
----------------
Within two or three days of starting school, Izuku Midoriya would frequently visit Class A of the Hero Course. Coupled with his gentle demeanor, he quickly became familiar with the students in Class A.
"Midori, you're here?"
Ooshiro naturally greeted Midoriya first, as Midoriya had performed exceptionally well in the entrance exam and thus entered the Hero Course A, much to Hisashi's envy.
"Damn it, what are you doing here again, Tokugawa? Can't you just stay in your support section and behave yourself?!"
Just as Izuku Midoriya arrived at Class A of the Hero Course for the break time, Bakugo Katsumi was already speaking with a look of malice, showing no welcome to Midoriya's arrival.
"Bakugo, you are so rude! Don't you have any respect for Midoriya's efforts in aspiring to the Hero Course?!"
Tenya Iida, a student in Class A of the Hero Course, took the entrance exam in the same room as Midoriya. His Quirk is "Engine" on his calf, and he is the younger brother of the famous Turbo Hero "Ingenium".
During the exam, Iida witnessed Midoriya defeat the robot imaginary enemy and then unhesitatingly save Ochako Uraraka. After learning that Midoriya was Quirkless and had reached that level solely through training, Iida developed immense respect for him!
"Midori-kun, you're here..."
Ochako Uraraka quickly greeted Midoriya, but she was a little shy and didn't say much.
"Hello Uraraka, Iida, and Kacchan... You still have the same temper even in the Hero Course."
"Mind your own business!"
As for Midoriya, Bakugo Katsuki was furious, and the other classmates covered their eyes because they couldn't bear to look. What was that saying again?
Bakugo was their classmate, and the whole class felt incredibly embarrassed...
"Midori-kun, are you here today also to learn about our courses?"
Ochako Uraraka kindly asked Izuku about his recent frequent visits to the Hero Course, explaining that he wanted to know what they were studying, completely assuming he was a student there.
"No, I came here today to ask Iida-kun a question."
"May I ask you for advice?"
Izuku Midoriya nodded. Right now, the only person who could help him with the difficulties he was facing was Tenya Iida from Class A of the Hero Course.
