Chapter 162 - End of Semester Exam 2

Everyone stood up in front of the open field together looking at the group of a teacher who was standing in front of them.

"Now, let's start your practical exam," Aizawa said lazily.

Brando could see that there were ten teachers and he felt that he might be fighting one of the teachers for the practical exam. He wanted to fight All Might, but he didn't mind fighting someone else later. 'Midnight is dangerous'. He felt that the most dangerous teacher would be Midnight since her Quirk was lethal for him who had a very keen sense of smell.

"It's possible to fail this exam. If you want to attend the training camp, then don't mess this up," Aizawa said.

"Hmm, there are sure a lot of teachers here," Hagakure said.

"Knowing you guys, you probably asked around and you might think you have a vague idea of how this will go...."

"It's robot rumble like in the entrance exam!"

"Truth or dare!"

Then suddenly something came out from Aizawa's scarf and shouted. "Not quite!! Various circ.u.mstances have demanded a revision to the exam format!"

The ones who had said those words were Nezu or the principal of the U.A. High School.

"Revision?"

"Yes." Nezu went down from Aizawa's scarf slowly and started his explanation. "Well, you see..." He explained to them how to take precautions against villains since they had been attacked a lot of times, especially after both accidents of League of Villains and Hero Killer.

"That is the reason why we have decided to make this practical exam different! From now on, we'll focus on the real battle and increase your experience in battle as closely as possible," Nezu said.

"As such... You students will be pairing up and fighting one of the teachers you see here!"

"Against a teacher?" Uraraka seemed surprised.

"I am fired up!" Bakugou grinned.

Brando looked at All Might and his eyes showed an eager expression.

All Might noticed Brando's gaze and only laughed while scratching his head.

'It's not him?' Brando frowned while wondering.

"Your pairings and assigned teacher have already been decided. Your battle moves, your grades, your friendsh.i.p.s with one another. All these factors and more were considered, so without further ado..." Nezu looked at Brando and said, "First Brando is going to be with Mina and both of you are going to be against me." He gave them a harmless smile.

"Dio! We're going to be together!" Mina said happily.

"Yes." Brando nodded. He was quite unsatisfied with his opponent but didn't say anything. He listened to each group and their opponents. He looked at Midoriya and Bakugou enviably since they could fight against All Might.

"You seem to be dissatisfied to fight against me," Nezu suddenly said to Brando.

Brando smiled and said, "I thought that I'd have an exciting battle."

Nezu smiled and said, "Don't worry, you'll have it when you'll be fighting against me."

Brando raised his eyebrow and nodded. "Then, I can't wait for it."

"Yes, I am sure that you'll be happy later," Nezu said.

Mina looked at Nezu and whispered to Brando. "This battle is going to be easy."

Brando looked at Mina and wondered how this girl loved to create a flag for them. He knew that the moment this girl said those words then this exam wouldn't be that easy. He tried to remember Nezu's Quirk, but he only knew that the principle Quirk is a high IQ. 'High IQ, huh?' He talked with Mina for a while before came to Momo.

"We're going to have a different fight," Momo said.

"Yes, I believe that you can win this exam easily," Brando said.

"Thank you, I believe in you too," Momo said.

"Remember, you're smart and you can the flow of the battle easily. You can win this practical exam," Brando said again since he knew this girl had quite low confidence after her loss at the Sports Festival.

Momo smiled and nodded. "I'll wait for you."

"Okay."

---

Brando, Mina, and Nezu were on the bus together to go to the practical exam's location.

Nezu had told them that they needed 15 minutes to arrive at the location of the exam.

"Dio, from the 10 teachers who do you want to fight the most?" Mina asked.

"Hmm, how about you?" Brando asked.

"Oh, I am also interested in this conversation," Nezu said.

Mina looked at Nezu and said, "Sensei, I don't mean to belittle you, but can you fight the two of us?"

"Whether I can or not, you need to see it after we have started the exam," Nezu said. He looked at them and said, "You can't underestimate your opponent or you might be sorry later."

"I know that Sensei, but..." Mina looked at Nezu's small body.

Nezu knew that talking was useless and it was better to show his power through action. He observed Brando who looked at the window with a bored expression. He would show this naughty boy of his power later and how this guy had underestimated him.

Brando didn't really care about Nezu's thoughts and wondered what the rules of this battle were. He looked at Nezu and thought that the principle would explain the rules later.

"Dio, you can transform into a dinosaur, right?" Mina asked.

"Yes." Brando nodded.

"You can transform an animal into a dinosaur, right?" Mina asked.

"Yes." Brando nodded.

"Oh, so you can turn me into a dinosaur?" Nezu seemed interested.

Brando looked at Nezu and nodded. "It's possible, do you want to try it?"

"Hahaha, that's an interesting proposal, but let's do it later," Nezu said.

"Dio, can I ask you something?" Mina asked.

"Sure." Brando nodded. He had to admit if he ignored the pink color skin then Mina is a pretty cute girl and those b.o.o.b.s were plus points too.

"Can you turn into King Kong?" Mina asked with an excited expression.

"....." Nezu also looked at Brando while drinking his tea.

Brando smiled and said, "Let's see later."
