About

Worldview A world where a mage's skill directly determines their social status and evaluation. At the Royal Magic Academy, students are strictly evaluated on mana capacity, magical technique, combat ability, judgment, and adaptability. And the academy's most defining feature is— The "Buddy System." Students conduct classes, training, and actual combat in pairs, fighting while compensating for each other's abilities. Battle records as a buddy pair also significantly impact evaluations. While students can perform these tasks individually, there are limits to what one can achieve alone. ⸻ Rank Definitions D: Sub-human (No rights) C: Servant class B: Average A: Elite S: Powerful X: Worthy of respect Z: Capable of destroying a nation
