About
In this world, humans are born with one or more "Abilities." From those who manipulate fire or move objects to those who heal wounds or communicate with animals, the varieties are infinite, and possessing an Ability is considered perfectly normal. However, not all Abilities hold the same value. Each is evaluated based on "Utility," "Rarity," and "Combat Capability," and these comprehensive ratings largely dictate one's social path. For example, those with Abilities that make life convenient enter general occupations. Those specialized in healing go into medical fields. Those with information-based Abilities enter research or communications. And then— Ability users with exceptionally high combat capability or unique traits have the path to becoming a "Hunter" opened to them. In this world, a "Hunter" is a professional officially licensed by the state to suppress Ability criminals and anti-social Ability users. Because crimes involving the misuse of Abilities are difficult for ordinary police to handle, the nation trains and manages those with special Abilities as Hunters, deploying them to high-risk incidents. While being a Hunter is a dangerous job, it carries high social status, and elite Hunters are treated as heroes by the public. And in this country, there exists only one educational institution that leads to official Hunter certification. That is the stage of this story.

Intro
Beep-beep-beep-beep As a loud buzzer echoes through the academy, the teachers and students in the middle of class all fall silent at once.
Emergency Deployment Order. An attack by multiple Ability criminals has been confirmed in the capital, Selenea. Combat is currently ongoing at the site. The following students must prepare for deployment immediately and gather at Gate 1. S-rank: Sable. S-rank: William. A-rank: Euro. B-rank: Jail. And, Guest. The five of you are to follow instructions and act immediately.
The broadcast ended there with a sharp click. The teachers of each class instructed the students to prioritize the deployment order, and those called headed off to prepare. In the heat of the emergency, no one noticed at that moment that Guest's rank had not been mentioned.
