I was walking through the city when I realise, something was amiss "what's going on" I muttered as I walk through an alley and finding a book that read "Survival Guide"
I pick it up and scan it: nothing too crazy, no over dramatic glowing light. It's perfectly normal, except for the fact that the library was reacting 'completely forgot about that' the library was reacting. It's as if the library is telling me to store it, with nothing else to do. I decided to store it and read it later.
Because today, is his first day at work. And he gets to work with the BIG 3, yes, that's right the message of that aizawa sent yesterday was what he needed to do today. It's basically a to do list.
•••••
Things to do
1. Help the BIG 3 train their quirks.
→I will not be present due to a mission.
2. Do a lecture on the general study course that requires summer class.
3. Grade the general studies students summer class quiz.
→Your resume says your well versed in every subject – I doubt that.
4. Make a report of everything
→Detailed report on gen. studies improvement and BIG 3's progression

Wow, it's like a souls quest, I re-read the quest I have been given and stop. I have this nagging feeling that I need to read the book, it's bothering me. It's like the book itself wishes to communicate with me 'weird, is it because I'm the avatar of the Aspect of Knowledge?' probably.
So I caved in, I read it. I was shocked, and worried hell worried is an understatement. So, what might be content of the book? Well there's only 2 pages that has writings on it. Number 1 was to always know your surroundings to keep yourself alive. Like what I did in the first 3 days I'm here. Real weird, it's like every thing I'm doing is being recorded.
And number 2 was adapt, yeah just adapt. Number 1 had a brief explanation but number 2 covers almost 1/2 of the pages and I'm pretty sure "adapt" is self explanatory so I didn't read it. And the third and final one was empty, its blank but it has a number.
"If my suspicions are right, if I did a thingamajig to survive properly, it will be recorded here. Which will then solved other questions I have for the library." Alright, number 5 on the to do list; Survive.

I am currently inside a classroom filled with soon to be third years, the big 3 is here too why? Because I told them that I'll teach them something. Also they're reaction is funny when I told them that I'm quirkless Hahaha, anyway I'm teaching this summer class about philosophy.
"So what do you think, about the living being called a human?" I ask, no one raised their hand – they're hesitant. "No need to be so nervous, I might be new here but you can treat me as an older brother" with that they raised their hand, after all you don't need authority for people to follow you: you need trust and trust will even lead people to die for you.
I called upon an interesting looking kid, he has that weak to op protagonist vibe 'he might be an avatar' I said mentally but still focus on what he's saying.
I gathered my thoughts and rebutted his point "you said that Humans, are the top predators of the world right? We're the extreme conquerors. But we're not what's your name student?" I asked before I continue "Finch, an exchange student from England" he said "that's an interesting take on it student Finch, but no. We are no predator: we're barely stronger a chimpanzee without any quirk"
"We have no claw, no fangs nor do we have the venoms. But why are we at the top? The question earlier was what do you think of the human being, now it's why do you think we're at the top" I changed the topic after all, they're just going shift it into quirk superiority. Then someone raises their hand a voice spoke up "Because of quirks" she says confidently and for some reason I almost agreed, but no. I don't like "because of quirks" answer it's stupid.
So I didn't let her seat, I asked her again " what about humans before quirk? Aren't they at the top as well?" She shut up contemplating before she answered again "Because of our sheer tenacity and will?" She said slowly losing confidence in her answer. "Bingo" I shoot finger guns at her, and gave her a bubblegum.
Then I begin rambling about how humanity without quirk push back nature to a semi controllable state in which the animal is counted and pigs are slaughtered to be eaten.
Then the billion dollar question came up, asked by the ever expressive mirio "Sensei! But why is it that you refuse to believe that quirks isn't what makes us superior to animal?"
I was stunned, not expecting Mirio to ask that . And with a smile I reply "because we're humans Mirio, and humans don't just stay down after getting beaten up, we'll stay up and make sure damn well they know what's up"
Then I continued with "even before quirks humans work with each other, they make quick work of preys they hunt" Then I pause, and looked at each students present "But why are we different? What makes us unique?"
Then no one answered so I gave them the answer that I believed in "it's because we're 'humans' we are creatures that – over the course of time evolved with each other" I stopped again then I said "we as a collective believed that without another we will not survive, that's why they say that 'No man is an Island' someone always need another "
I look at them and just as I imagined they look confused I continue to preach "no matter who you are, you will always need somebody to lean onto, because you can't do it alone. For the past years ever since humans were still just a mindless ape, they colaborated first as a Band, then a Tribe and eventually a city."
And with that I ended my lecture "Anyway students as a new teacher here, I will cut this lecture of ours short so we can do introduction!" I shouted excitedly.
"You can ask questions about the lecture later but first, introduction!" I said and you know how it goes.
Then the questions started pouring in "Yoroichi-sensei, you said that it's because of our will that make us different against other species; what exactly is our will?"
That's a great question.
I look at the kid who ask that, Nakiri Kei, a 17 year old student who wants to be a hero but because of his quirk that make his eyes glow red he decided to just be a lawyer. 'great mind do think alike' I thought as I wonder myself what exactly is our will?
Then I answered him truthfully "I don't know kid, our wills depend on who we are. I know someone who literally stop himself from dying because he said it's too early for him to die" and that man was my father.
So, I guess that wills do depend on people. Maybe if I willed it enough I can end the world, I sigh, yet again another wishful thinking of mine. I smiled at the students and dismissed them, I refuse to answer any more questions because that book before keeps on going back on my mind.
It's like an annoying toddler, who gets more annoying the more you ignore the gremlin.
So, I dismissed them and told the big 3 to change into their hero costume or P.E. uniform for the quirk application test.
While walking to the training grounds, I call upon the book named 'Survival guide' and read through it the number 3 is pushed back and new clauses has been added to number 2. I knew it, the adaptation part is me making sure I get positive connection with the future hope of this world to survive.
I guess I can call it my Biography? As I was wondering about it I didn't notice Allmight in his skinny form walking infront of me, I almost bump into him if he didn't say a word "Hello, you're Yoroichi correct?" He ask, he's probably going with the good teacher persona to conceal his identity.
I nodded and introduce myself enthusiastically "Yes sir, that's me!" I said with a smile. He smiled back and introduced himself "My name is Toshinori Yagi, I am at the faculty yesterday but Aizawa was talking to you so I didn't get to introduce myself" I shook my head and smiled "No need to so Formal Yagi-senpai" I patted him in the back.
I am going for the enthusiastic almost idiotic persona so I can gain their trust and make sure I have more allies, I don't know what's going on behind the scenes but I know damn well something big is about to happen.
We made some small talk and I excuse myself, after all I have a class to attend to: and I'm excited to see quirks in action!
