Looking at the results I noticed that there were many changes from canon, Midoriya's placing dropped dramatically, although I am pretty sure it was partially my fault...
Also, Bakugo got second place instead of Shoto, while it might be a small difference I argue this will kick me in the butt in the future. Especially if Endeavor gets involved.. brr
Making my way towards the field, I felt many gazes on me... Probably because of my placement, or that "mysterious" 10,000,000 number next to my name. Walking towards the gouped-up 1A classmates I was given a warm welcome, as well as Bakugo and Shoto's ire.
"Welcome back, Rimuru. Are you alright?" Tokoyami asked, although he already visited me he still asked.
"Legs still hurtin'" I replied with courtesy
"Everyone! Let's focus! the next event is about to be announced!" Iida ruined the fun with his stiff personality, rambling loudly making the surrounding students give us strange looks...
"Ahem- Ahem-," Ms. Midnight promptly interrupted us by coughing into the microphone creating a loud ring. Silencing the crowd to listen to her words, only to be blasted by Present Mic's voice.
[ARE YOU READY FOR THE NEXT EVENT? Ms. Midnight will now roll the roulette for the next challenge! what might it be!] My ears rang a bit, nonetheless, I continued listening hoping that my eardrums wouldn't pop by Present Mic's terrible timing.
[.... Hizashi... you know this isn't a random event being picked right?] Aizawa's voice interrupted Midnight, who was about to do her whole showy boob-swaying show, making her embarrassed.
[...It isn't random?] Surprisingly Present Mic didn't scream into the microphones, his voice sounded genuinely confused
[The events are pre-planned, do you think they would have an entire obstacle course just in case it was picked?] Eraser-Head replied making the audience quiet... way to ruin the fun...
"AHEM AHEM" This time Midnight's voice was the one who rang out, seeming genuinely annoyed she looked towards the commentator's box.
"It's time we pick the next event! Let's spin the 'Totally-not-Rigged' event wheel" Said Midnight with a terrifying expression, a chill went up Aizawa's spine... I pity what she'll do to him
Again returning to her usual smiley expression Midnight turned to the right where the same hologram of a spinning wheel appeared, hopefully, the events will stay true to canon.
seeing the wheel slowly slow down it eventually slowed down to show the word [Cavalry battle], Sighing a sigh of relief, I was concerned god might change things up on me for no reason.
The explanation was about the same when Ms. Midnight revealed how much each contestant was worth I felt hostile gazes land on me, Ms. Midnight just looked at me, giving me a wink, and swayed her hips, making the melons jiggle...
"You can all make teams, with a minimum of two people. Please note that if the rider touches the ground he will be immediately disqualified and his whole team as well, you have 15 minutes" Midnight gave a fair warning, unfortunately, I still felt Bakugo's eyes nailed to me, the fire in his eyes blazing even hotter...
...
As soon as the 15-minute time started I turned my head toward Tokoyami, looking at each other we gave a small nod, a move straight out of the bro-code. with one teammate acquired, I looked around searching for potential teammates, but unfortunately, most of the other students were aiming for my 10M point headband and thus didn't want to join. Fortunately, I knew exactly who to search for.
Sifting my eyes through the crowd I searched for a certain green-haired boy, with his recognizable appearance I made my way towards him weaving between students.
"Hey Midoriya!" I raised my hand as a greeting, but he just meekly looked down with flushed cheeks. Looking next to him I saw the bubbly Ochako Uraraka look at him with a confused expression.
"R-Rimuru..."
"Join my team," I said bluntly, making Midoriya jump in surprise
"Ar-Are you s-sure? I can't control my quirk, so I'm just d-dead weight" Midoriya said self-deprecatingly, of course, Midoriya is pretty useless quirk-wise, but he's very useful as a pusho- I mean companion.
"I need someone to carry me," I pointed toward my legs, which were still slightly shaking, fortunately, Recovery Girl healed me up or I might have torn a muscle just walking back.
"Ah- I see..." Midoriya nodded understandingly, but his face turned serious, and said "If I'm on your team, let Uraraka join too"
"D-D-Deku-kun...?" Uraraka said with a surprised face, my expression turned slightly serious, and thinking about it I realized that Uraraka could be a useful addition to my team.
"Sure."
"Thank Rimuru-san" Midoriiya bowed with a grateful look on his face, but Uraraka's turned bright red. Recognizing this sign I quickly stopped her from sprinting away in embarrassment. and with two new teammates, I made my way back toward Tokoyami.
"Have you brought additional teammates?" Tokoyami asks before his eyes quickly land on the two lovebirds (Heh pun) "It's a pleasure to work with you" he then extends his hand for a handshake.
"No-no-no the pleasure is all mine" Midoriya stutters not expecting Tokooyami to be so formal
"Alright then, let's start discussing the plan. currently, we are worth the most amount of points," Tokoyami comments, and he is right. We are currently the biggest target, I can still see people trying to eavesdrop on our conversation.
"Don't worry, I have a plan. but first, carry me... my feet hurt" This promptly caused me to get 3 deadpan expressions directed at me, a new high score.
...
"And times up!" Ms.Midnight announced shortly after the 15 minutes were up, with most of the teams assembled the large screen quickly changed

(Normal authors: "I have this super cool plotline"
Me: "Damn I need my calculator")
Looking at the team value, it is very apparent how you win this event, you get the 10M team. Tying the headband on my head with the written '10,000,430' I felt pride in such a high number. Jumping onto Tokoyami's shoulder with Midoriya and Uraraka supporting my legs I narrowed my eyes and prepared to act upon the plan.
Scanning each team I knew that the second the round begins, ill have both Bakugo and Todoroki aiming for me immediately...
Taking a deep breath, I started to emit [Beelzbub]. Tokoyami's dark shadow took a stance as Ms. Midnight raised her whip slowly
Ms. Midnight quickly struck her whip down
"START!"
