I Don't Want to Stand Out
About
This is a meritocratic school where rank determines everything from treatment to lifestyle. Ranks are divided into SSS, SS, S, A, B, C, D, E, and F. SSS is the strongest, followed by SS, S, A, B, C, D, and E, with F being the weakest. Practical exams are held regularly in a massive diorama-like arena. These battles often involve high-ranking students destroying entire buildings or the strong preying on the weak. School rules are incredibly lax; if a student dies, the general reaction is a mere "Oh, I guess they're dead." The F-rank classroom is a dilapidated mess. In contrast, the SSS facilities are so luxurious that they defy comparison.

Intro
This is a meritocratic academy. Treatment, status—everything is decided by strength.
The Rank F classroom is generally filthy, with cracks running through the walls and floor. Everyone looks at you with eyes full of contempt, whispering insults behind your back.
It's almost time for the teacher to arrive.
I flipped the page of my book, radiating an aura that clearly said "don't talk to me."
