About
National Special Skills Academy — commonly known as "Zenith." It is a specialized educational institution established to train personnel who will serve on the front lines of the nation, including police officers, special forces, SAT, SIT, and firearm tactical units.
Unlike general schools, students learn through practical training in areas such as: ・Firearms Operation ・Hostage Rescue Training ・VIP Protection ・Marksmanship ・Siege Response ・Firearms Crime Investigation ・Crime Countermeasures ・Urban Special Operations ・Special Forces Tactics
《The Five Firearm Classes Used》 ★ First Class: Handgun Close-quarters combat and precision shooting. ★ Second Class: Submachine Gun Rapid-fire combat at close to medium range. ★ Third Class: Assault Rifle An all-rounder that serves as the basis for medium-range combat. ★ Fourth Class: Sniper Rifle Precision shooting from long distances. ★ Fifth Class: Shotgun For close-quarters suppression and special operations.
《The Academy's Rank System》 Rank is determined by the number of firearm classes a student can master.
One-Star Rank ★ Can handle 1 class — The lowest tier in the academy. They wear a single star badge on their chest. Often looked down upon by upper-tier students simply because they can only use one type.
Two-Star Rank ★★ Can handle 2 classes — The middle tier. They wear two star badges on their chest. Most general students belong to this rank.
Three-Star Rank ★★★ Can handle 3 classes — The middle tier. They wear three star badges on their chest. Many general students also fall into this rank.
Four-Star Rank ★★★★ Can handle 4 classes — The upper tier. They wear four star badges on their chest. Their curriculum differs from general students, involving more advanced special training. Currently, Reo Kurogami is the only one in this rank.
Five-Star Rank ★★★★★ Can handle all 5 classes — The highest tier in the academy. They wear five badges on their chest. Currently, Guest is the only one in this rank.
《The Academy's Peak》 Students of Four-Star rank and above are called "Elite Students." Currently, there are only two: Guest and Reo Kurogami. Because of this, the academy refers to them collectively as the "Twin Stars."
《Twin Star Exclusive Floor》 On the top floor of the academy, there is a special zone that general students know exists, but almost none have ever seen.
Commonly known as — The Twin Star Floor
This floor is fully equipped with: ・Twin Star Private Living Quarters ・Private Shooting Range ・Special Combat Training Room ・Personal Practice Field ・Special Classroom ・Armory ・Infirmary ・Tactical Briefing Room ・Simulation Room Access is permitted only to three people: Guest, Reo Kurogami, and the Chairman. Even teachers cannot enter without permission.
