Izuku's point of view

I don't know why Cecil insisted on me using the teleporter. I kind of thought that was only something he kept it to himself but I'm not complaining. It made things quicker and easier.

I was expecting him to teleport me back to the Grayson household, but instead we arrive in the teen team's old base, but it looked like it had been remodelled a bit

What once look like a teen hangout/secret base now look like a secret base/factory mean there was still a pool table but there were new equipment in here such as 3-D printers, a bunch of materials, star charts, and books and all the tools you would need to run a small factory

I'm confused as to why we're here: Cecil why are you exactly Are we here?

he keeps walking: I'll explain everything later, kid just keep walking. Let me show you around first.

I just do what he says and follow him, but I do have a question if we're being led somewhere then why didn't he just teleport us straight there: I know this is gonna be annoying but I just have to ask how much do you spend every time you teleport isn't that... Taxpayer money?

He responds with: do you know the gross emetic output of Lichtenstein?

Yes, actually: actually yes... Wait that's over 7.36 billion dollars! We use that... four times the past five minutes! Let's at the very least 29,440,000,000 dollars

(by the way, that is an accurate calculation I checked online)

Cecil remaining neutral: wow not a lot of people could come up with that calculation at the top of their head

Well, yeah, I would think so because that number is just astronomical: I don't mean to be disrespectful but that seems really wasteful... I mean you could accomplish the same thing with just half the price?

He then stops walking and turns this time with a surprise expression: what?

Well, yeah, my world did a similar thing: well... You're using a quantum core to atomise yourself in one place and then remise yourself in another right?

Cecil: yes how did you know that?

I shrug: my world did a similar thing before quirks it was a theory that someone came up with. I cannot remember the name but the idea was that they demise themselves in one place and then re-itemise themselves in another they were even tests but they all kind of came to an end after quirks happened as you know that was a very dark time for my people and the project was pretty much scrapped and then later someone found the project idea and thought why not release it online because at this point in my world teleportation really wasn't much of a fantasy anymore considering that there were individuals that could teleport someone from one place to another

Cecil: and let me guess you saw these plans and you you realise their design was flooded, wasn't it?

I rubbed the back of my head. It's not that impressive. I'm sure anyone in my world could come up with it: it's not that impressive. I'm sure every person in my world could figure out the answer... It's not really that big of an issue, you see you've probably created the quantum Corp being roughly around the size of I would say a car right?

Cecil: well actually about the size of a small house

Okay, yeah, that's way too big: that's way too big. It just needs to be roughly around the size... I would say of a tire of a car is it the bigger the core is the more energy it needs to work but if you shrink it down

Cecil beginning to understand: it will need less power... And you're sure it will have the same result

I shrug: it should theoretically of course but... I could be wrong

Cecil: yeah you could be but I don't think you are... That's why I'm giving you this

He gesture to something but I didn't quite understand until I realised he meant the whole base with all the equipment in it

I looked around this place had equipment that I didn't even have names for it was countless materials tools. Everything you could possibly need if you were in the hero support course

But that's not me I'm not an inventor: Cecil I appreciate it but I'm not an inventor. I can't do any of this.

Cecil: really you just happen to come up with a theory on how I can spend less money teleporting... And you don't think you're capable of using any of this?

Well I admit that it might've been impressive to him but I'm sure anyone from my world could come up with the same conclusion... I mean it was obvious wasn't it?

Regardless, there's no way I could take all of this: see I don't know what it's got into your head. You think I'm capable of using any of this to its full potential but-

He interrupted me by throwing me bits of paper which was the test he had me take. I look at the marks and... I got a perfect 100% but he said those were simple questions and they were relatively. They were a few difficult ones, but I mean there's no way that he would think I was a genius just forgetting something like that.

Cecil: before you say I have to come clean about something those questions aren't simple izuku anything but those questions are the hardest questions that we are capable of giving you... And you got every single one of them correct

What no that can't be right my grades in middle school work... Terrible and despite me revising for UA I'm still only fourth in my class I can't be a genius not to what level he's describing

Cecil: izuku we've never seen anything like this not even with robot yes he answered all the questions and he got more correct, but he did it in twice the time it took you

No, no, this can't be right. I'm not a genius. I'm not worth that much: Cecil I'm sorry but you've made a mistake... I'm not worth that much

I give him the papers back. I mean, I'm flattered that he thinks of me as a genius, but there's no way I'm that smart. I'm nothing special. I'm just some kid that got incredibly lucky. I was nothing before all might and even after I'm still... not that special I'm just somebody that got incredibly lucky. I wasn't born with any outgoing talents. Any thing memorable I was just lucky that's all it was.

Cecil: why do you think that is because how everyone else treated you? and because of that damn mark on your back.

I stop as I start hyperventilating as the memory of... Those days come back to me. I remember my screams my cries by begging them to stop in return. All I could hear was their laughter.

I should've known he would bring that up. I realised that I was being watched. I should've known he was watching when I was giving Mark the moral lesson.

I turn: I don't know what you're talking about

Cecil: yes you do... I know that you know we've been watching the Grayson's as well as you you're smart kid izuku at first I wasn't sure how you could not notice that but then after hearing what you told Mark... I understood you don't see your true value

True value the only value I have is only because I have power now without it... I'm nothing and even with it I'm still barely anything: I don't havevalue Cecil... Not without my power anyway look I appreciate what you're trying to do, but I'm not who you think I am

He crosses his arms: you're right you may not who I think you are but right now you might be the best hope for humanity... You know don't you?

I raise an eyebrow: know what exactly?

Cecil: you know what I'm talking about about Nolan and the guardians

He knows of course he knows he's been monitoring my room he's probably seen my suspect list and he probably came to the conclusion himself

Still that doesn't explain this: okay maybe we're right about... Nolan and the guardians and if he posed a danger, I wouldn't think twice about fighting him but I can't be the only hope. I mean there's the new guardians of the globe and Mark not to mention Eve.

Cecil: true but is the true truth the new guardians... Well they're a shit show and I don't see them improving in time, Eve is powerful but I don't think she's strong enough to take on Omni man at least not by herself and Mark... We don't know where he stands yet listen kid I'm not gonna pretend like I know what you've been through but judging how you're acting I can imagine it wasn't good... Just think about it's okay you have a gift. A gift that can help this world at least think about using it.

I don't respond I just fly away out of the base I just... I can't I'm not a genius I'm barely even sensible I'm partially suicidal and I'm nothing special without my powers without them. I'm just some hero fanboy who is way out of his league and dreaming too big for his own good I can't be anything more with that without my power.
