Koji knew how this was going to end before he even wrote down a name.
Because Mido-chan was doing his…thing earlier.
Not bad things! Mido-chan is so awesome! He is one of his best friends! He doesn't care if he doesn't talk much or he is shy. He doesn't care if he doesn't want to do anything but play with his rabbit or feed the pigeons.
Or teach them how to send messages…
Or the best parks to get food.
Or amass an army of them for the entrance exam.
Uhh…that was Mido-chan's idea!
….
….
His idea was an army of rats but Tsu-chan pointed out that the principal might be insulted. That was a good point. No, he decided to go with Mido's idea.
No, his friend's thing is…
He is gathering uh….what Minochan called it…minions.
Tsuchan said that they wouldn't be minions….they would be gofers since Midochan was all for information.
He would say it much nicer than either of them and say friends.
Mina and Kirishima are already drawn to his friend's obit.
He didn't hate them. They were loud but…they were super nice.
Mina was super interested in the different animals that he talked about too. She also gave him some ideas about fish too….
Kirishima said that he was super manly during his battle trail.
He wasn't quite sure what that meant but it sounded like a good thing?
Right now, his friend was terrifying…he meant…befriending Dark Shadow and Tokoyami. Few moments earlier, Shoji and Ojiro were under his friend's radar.
"YOU HAVE A CELL REGENERATION QUIRK! That is so cool. Have you tried to regenerate other organs besides eyes and ears? How long does it take you to heal? How…"
"You take martial arts too? Who is your Master? What type do you take? How long have you incorporated your quirk in your style…"
Judging by the expression on their faces, they look like Minochan would say that they were having their…"Coming of Jesus" moment.
Midochan does that a lot.
IT ISN'T A BAD THING!
But….
"I'm so sorry about the flashlight, Dark Shadow. I made you some cookies…" Midochan said shyly as he held up a cookie.
"Fumikage! He gave me a cookie!" Dark Shadow said happily as the shadow took the cookie and ate it in one swallow.
"You mustn't! Midoriya is a creature of light!" Tokoyami shouted at Dark Shadow.
"But the cookie was so good! Can we keep him? Can we?" Dark Shadow said excitedly as Midochan gave the shadow another cookie.
"What a banquet of madness," Tokoyami mumbled.
"Midoriya, stop feeding Dark Shadow and take a seat like everyone else should be doing," Mr. Aizawa said.
Everyone took their seats like he set the room on fire.
"Today, you will be doing the most important thing in your high school careers," Mr. Aizawa started to say.
Those words didn't sound good at all.
They were going to die, weren't they?
He could already see his life flash before his eyes and figured out who to give his bunny too.
"…You're going to pick a class president…."
The room erupted into shouting of pick me…pick me.
He raised his hand slightly to try.
What? He had to make the effort.
"Mr. Aizawa, is there a method by which we should elect our president?" Tenya said with his weird arm waving thing.
"I don't care as long as you don't kill each other or duel to the death," Mr. Aizawa said before he dropped to the floor.
Wow…he can go to sleep fast.
Then there was more shouting, and Tenya said they should do this democratic election.
Mina pointed out that they barely knew each other.
But Tenya pressed on with his democratic election.
It wasn't a surprise who won with 5 votes. Although, they did need to figure out the vice-president because there were some people with 2 votes.
Midochan's expression was priceless.
"Me?! But…but…why me?!" Midochan said in a panic.
Minochan and Tsuchan were trying really hard not to laugh.
Funny enough, Midochan didn't know his own power.
"YES! I vote for you! Congs, you are our new Overlord!" Mina said gleefully.
Okay, now he saw why Mina would fit right in their group.
"But…But…why him?! He is quirkless!" Sero? said.
After that comment, there was a moment of silence.
"Well…it looked like someone chose death," Tsuchan mumbled.
But his eyes were on Midochan. His nervous demeanor was gone. It was replaced with "Master" mode as Minochan would call it. He watched as his eyes became cold and emotionless. His body became stiff but only for a moment before it slipped into this weird sort of ease. He really doesn't know how to describe it…only like a bird of prey who was in between wanting to attack but they are waiting instead for something.
A sign.
If his teacher taught him that….
He never met Midochan and Minochan's teachers. He just heard the stories.
They sounded terrifying enough for him.
"My Master once said…if you forget how to bleed, you forget how to be human." Midochan said softly.
"Wha-?" Sato said in confusion before he pressed on.
"No matter how much support gear I have or training, I know that I'm at a disadvantage. I don't have a quirk. I accepted that but it didn't stop me. I'm the first quirkless kid to be accepted into the UA hero program. Do you know how I did it? A piece of metal and a broken piece of stop sign was left on the side of the road. I stabbed robots in their joints and eyes. Sometimes, in the stomach area, if they were already down. I also stopped and helped because a hero tries to never leave a person behind. I patched them up…pulled them out from the rumble. I know better than anyone…how to bleed…."
He glanced around the classroom to see everyone enthralled with Midochan's words.
"Most people aren't born into being a villain. Sometimes, it is unforeseen circumstances and desperation that drive them into that situation. Those people we can save…those people we can reach out our hands. The ones that we should be worried about…are the ones that we should fear. They are the ones that think with their power and their vengeance. It doesn't matter if it is their past, money, power or their quirk. They forgot how to bleed…to be human. Those are the ones that you see All Might fight on tv or those ones that you read about in the small article on page 6 that Mr. Aizawa caught. The minute that you forget that you are one step closer to being a villain and not a hero. So, Sato-kun, do you bleed?" Midochan asked.
Sato nodded his head like it was about to fall off.
"Of course, man! Sorry! I'm…hell! Sorry! Damn it! SORRY! I mean…hell…with that speech, you will be an awesome president!" Sato said in a panic.
"Overlord," Mina added helpfully.
"Mina!" Midochan said as he turned to her.
She grinned.
"Your comment about Midoriya is improper as a hero, Sato. You should be more respectable toward your fellow students. Anyway…we need to do a vice-over…I mean president. Another vote?" Tenya said with his arm chopping thing.
Mina cackled.
Midochan groaned as he put his head onto the desk.
-MHA-
Midochan become their class president (overlord)
Yaoyorozu became their vice-president (overlord).
He swore that he heard Mr. Aizawa mumble that he was surprised that there weren't any duels.
He agreed.
End of The Matters of Picking Your Overlord (I mean…Your Class President)
