《Water and Ice | Shoto Todoroki》Chapter 39-Easy Victory

"I...I guess..." I answered slowly.
Ura and Mina high-fived each other. I blushed harder.
"Please don't do anything guys! I don't want to be set up or tricked again!" I said quickly.
They were both smirking evilly. I got more worried as they sent a knowing look between each other. I grit my teeth, knowing there wasn't anything I could do to stop them if they had their minds set on it. Mina whispered something to Ura and they both laughed. They exchanged a whispered conversation with lots of giggles in between. I just sighed and sank farther into my seat.
The match started and Iida and Todoroki fought. I watched them, but couldn't help seeing Mina whispering something to Kaminari in my peripheral. He suppressed a laugh and whispered something else to Kirishima. I glared at Mina. The whisper chain continued through the class, even Bakugo listened to it before smirking and passing it on. I was extremely annoyed that I didn't know what they were saying. I just tried to ignore them and watch the match.
Todoroki ended up winning, which meant I might have to face him if I beat Tokoyami. I got up and headed towards the entrance. I passed Todoroki in the hall as he made his way back to the stands.
"Nice job." I congratulated him.
"Thanks. Well...good luck." He said.
I nodded and we continued walking away from each other. I went towards the entrance for the third time today. Tokoyami came out from the other side like all my other opponents, and I was hoping he would leave the same way, after losing of course. I didn't have anything against him, but I came here to win, and that was what I planned to do. We faced each other and I went over my plan in my mind. It should end this quickly, without wasting much more of my energy.

"Begin!" Midnight started the match.
I immediately reached out with my clouds and enveloped him in a cocoon of mist. I began to move him towards the boundary line and I saw him trying to fight back inside. It was no use though. The clouds did my bidding, so I was able to make them support his weight even though they were light.
I could thin the water out enough to make my own clouds and since clouds weighed close to nothing I was able to move them around easier, although it required a bit of concentration. That was how I floated around, though.
Tokoyami was already close to the boundary so I just pushed him a little more before setting him down, outside of the line.
"Tokoyami is out of bounds! Y/n wins!" Midnight declared.
I let the clouds evaporate into the air and released Tokoyami. He looked like he had a mixture of disappointment and annoyance on his face. We both walked away.
"Well that was fast." Ura said when I got back to the stands.
"Don't want to waste any energy." I replied simply.
"I suppose this makes us rivals. Well good luck to you anyway." Todoroki said.
I nodded.
"May the best competitor win."

The Laptop Hero (Portal/Isekai LitRPG)
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] - April 2022 Silas got summoned to another world—by a group of kids attending magic school who seemed rather unhappy with the results of their ritual. After a brief glimpse of his summoners Silas woke in the town dump. Unable to speak the local language, a misunderstanding escalated and before long Silas wound up in a jail cell, the locals having confiscated all his worldly possessions aside from his laptop, which had formed some strange bond with him. Now he can summon his laptop at will, and he can view his Status, level up, and gain powerful skills and magic as if he were some character in a video game, which is great and everything, but all Silas really wants to do is sit in a dark room and play games on his laptop. Only, life isn't a game, and Silas needs to get his act together because everyone else is playing for keeps. Or does he? Maybe for Silas life is just one big game now, with everyone else stuck playing by his rules. Assorted Disclaimers, in no particular order: I am only posting this on RoyalRoad.com, so if you find my story elsewhere it was not posted by me. Please do let me know! While I do consider this a progression fantasy, and have tagged it as such, Silas's Status improvements will not necessarily proceed in a linear fashion. His RPG stats will have ups and downs, exploits and nerfs, periods of growth and stagnation. Such is the life of a gamer, to be held under the thumb of the all powerful devs, or in this case a certain goddess devoted to the idea of Balance. SIlas himself should learn and grow, improving and progressing in areas where he struggles, or rather, to show such is my goal. The story is told from multiple points of view. While other PoVs will come and go, Silas shall remain the only lead character. The world Silas finds himself on is not a nice place. Expect him to encounter gore and traumatizing content and bad people who do bad things for selfish (or possibly noble) reasons from time to time. Some characters will use profanity, however due to cultural differences the curse words used will differ from those used in our corner of reality, so I'm not including the profanity content warning. Silas himself isn't one for foul language. No explicit sexual content here. This novel is intended for mature readers, however, and will include mature topics, including, but not limited to, sex, violence, death, and taxes. No harem. Might be an eventual romantic interest, possibly even some competitive jealousy, yet as his story begins Silas is too overwhelmed with other concerns to consider long term plans. Musophobics might want to steer clear of this story. Same goes for turophobics. You have been warned. Keep in mind, however, if my other disclaimers didn't make this clear, I only have the faintest of outlines at the moment. This story will take me where it will. My goal with this story is to write it to the end, something of a long-term writing exercise, with the hope others might take an interest in my work and encourage me to keep at it. I've started a number of works before, even finished a few, but this is the first time I've shared any work in a public forum. My temporary cover was made by me, in GIMP using public domain images. If you can do better I'll happily accept your submission and give credit for your work here!
