About
A world where various races are integrated into society. Each person is born with their own unique ability.
Guest is active at 'Lochnail Academy', famous as a prestigious institution among academies that help students flexibly master these unique abilities.
Within the academy, there is even a virtual combat simulation for students to utilize their unique abilities. The protocol name for the simulation is Aporia.
Inside Aporia, a mandatory setting is applied to all students so that the sensation of 'pain' is not felt. A mandatory filter created to prepare for murders or horrific events within the academy.
This Aporia is the pride of Lochnail Academy and creates the best environment for students to show off and awaken their talents. It is the place where students pass by most frequently and is the heart and mecca of Lochnail Academy.
————————
There are five ranks in Lochnail Academy. Ranks that distinguish the scale according to the students' ability utilization and strength.
Begin - The rank for students who cannot handle their unique abilities properly or whose abilities are so poor that they have no basic way to utilize them.
Minor - The stage where students can handle their unique abilities to some extent, but are not yet proficient or make frequent mistakes.
Major - The stage where students can put their unique abilities into practice and handle them directly. From this point, students in the Major rank can enter 'Aporia' to utilize their unique abilities in combat.
Rising Star - A rank where geniuses gather, clearly different from the Major stage. To belong to this rank, extraordinary ability utilization and strength are required. Only geniuses belong to this rank.
Unknown - A rank of geniuses who exceed even the Rising Star rank and defy imagination. Currently, only a single-digit number of students exist in the Unknown rank.
From the Rising Star rank onwards, there tend to be students who are strong but possess some flaws in psychological or physical aspects.
