MHA : QUIRK EVOLUTION

"These hero names have a huge chance of sticking with you for life. If you pick something too cheesy, imagine being called that for the rest of your life... just thinking about it makes me shiver." 

"Although the hero name you pick now is just temporary, if someone dares to choose one randomly—"

Before Aizawa Shouta could finish, the door to the classroom was suddenly pulled open, and a voice came in: "I'll show him what hell is like!"

Then, a woman in a tight outfit walked in. As soon as everyone saw it was Midnight, they got excited. The person who reacted the most was probably Mineta.

As Midnight walked toward the podium, she explained, "Many people's hero names from their student days are recognized by the public and become their professional hero names."

"Yes, Midnight is right. As for naming, I'll leave that to Midnight-sensei to judge, because when it comes to this, I'm completely useless," 

Aizawa Shouta said, while squatting down to pick up his yellow sleeping bag.

Actually, Aizawa Shouta's hero name was just something Present Mic randomly gave him back then. The important thing was that Aizawa Shouta was willing to take it and use it.

After organizing his sleeping bag, Aizawa Shouta reminded everyone, "Think about what kind of hero you want to become. By picking a name, you leave a fixed impression and work towards it. That's what makes a name represent a person."

"Let's not waste time. Let's start," Midnight said as she picked up a stack of cards from the podium and handed the first one out for someone to pass down. 

Seeing that he had no other tasks, Aizawa Shouta opened his sleeping bag and went inside to sleep.

After receiving the card, Ezaki Kitazawa uncapped his pen and stared at it. The next second, he fell into deep thought.

Honestly, Ezaki Kitazawa felt like this hero name thing was less interesting than training.

Yaoyorozu Momo turned around and quietly asked, "Ezaki-kun, have you decided on your hero name?"

Ezaki Kitazawa shook his head and said seriously, "This is kind of hard, Yaoyorozu. Have you thought of yours?"

"Mm-hm," Yaoyorozu Momo nodded. "What is it? Tell me."

Yaoyorozu Momo hesitated for a moment and then quietly said, "All Things Hero! Daughter of Creation."

Ezaki Kitazawa, trying hard not to laugh, said, "Uh... that's a really good name." 

"I thought of one for you too. Do you want to hear it?" 

Yaoyorozu Momo asked. "Is it really that good? I'm actually a bit stuck on this." 

Ezaki Kitazawa asked with a hint of expectation, "Miracle Hero! Wooden Man!" 

Ezaki Kitazawa's smile gradually faded. 

"I'll explain the meaning behind it. I think everywhere you go, miracles happen, like in the USI incident. As for the 'wooden man' part, it kind of connects to your Quirk. What do you think of the name?" 

Yaoyorozu Momo asked, "The name? It sounds high-end, perfect, and beautiful. It's quite impressive." 

Before Ezaki Kitazawa could finish, Yaoyorozu Momo interrupted, "Stop speaking nonsense, should we use it or not?" 

"Forget it!" 

Ezaki Kitazawa immediately replied, "Then I'll think of another one!" 

"Okay!" 

Seeing Yaoyorozu Momo so enthusiastic, Kitazawa felt a bit shy to refuse. Not long after, Midnight, standing on the podium, said, "Alright, it's about time. Those who have decided can start announcing!" 

"Announce it in public? That takes a lot of courage!" 

"This is so hard. I still haven't thought of anything." 

"Same here." 

While there were quiet murmurs, a voice suddenly rang out, "I'll go!" 

Bakugo Katsuki shouted, then walked up with his card. "Bang!" 

He slammed the card down for everyone to see. Written on it were the neat three characters 'Explosion King'. However, Midnight immediately contradicted him. "It's better not to use a name like that." 

Bakugo Katsuki immediately exploded, asking Midnight, "Why?" 

"Bakugo, how about 'Explosion Taro' instead?" 

Kirishima Eijiro teased, "Shut up, Chicken Head!" 

Bakugo Katsuki cursed, and the whole class burst into laughter. Bakugo Katsuki sat back down, still cursing as he started to modify the name. 

With Bakugo Katsuki's lead, many others who had already thought of their names got up to announce them. Of course, most of the names were quite strange, like 'Smooth Wind Hero', 'Tentacle Hero', 'Tape Hero', and so on! 

"Ezaki-kun's Quirk has two parts. One of them is a bit incomplete. How about 'Miracle Hero'?" 

Yaoyorozu Momo said calmly. 

Ezaki Kitazawa paused for a moment. "It sounds a bit weird, but let's go with it. I'm too lazy to think of anything else." 

Yaoyorozu Momo made a QK hand gesture and turned around. Ezaki Kitazawa picked up a pen and wrote it down. 

After a long while, the name selection event was slowly drawing to a close. 

"Alright, Bakugo Katsuki, you're the last one." Midnight said to Bakugo Katsuki. 

Bakugo Katsuki frowned, took the card, and walked up to the stage again. 

"Explosion King!" 

Bakugo Katsuki said firmly. 

"No way!" 

Midnight immediately rebutted. "Why not?" 

Bakugo Katsuki looked like he wanted to bite Midnight's head off. "The focus is not on the last word, okay?" 

Midnight was speechless. "Right. It's probably not appropriate to have the word 'kill' in a professional hero's name, right?" 

Iida Tenya explained, "How could it be because of that word?" 

Bakugo Katsuki retorted, "It's exactly because of that word!" 

Midnight quietly said. 

Bakugo Katsuki grabbed the card, cursing as he walked back down. 

Here's the first update! Please show some support! 

Don't blame me if the hero name sounds bad, because I have no idea what would be good!
