A training academy for hunters.
About
> Story The year is 3102. The world is plagued by a series of bizarre incidents, disappearances, and urban destruction caused by Devils. Devils are supernatural beings born from human fear; their forms and abilities vary based on the creature or concept that gives them their name. Giant beasts, humanoid monsters, and aberrations with countless organs lurk within human society to prey on people. A Devil's strength is proportional to the magnitude of fear humans feel toward it—the more feared the concept, the more powerful the entity. Intelligence also varies by individual: some attack on instinct, while others plot schemes, communicate, or even choose not to harm humans. To combat these threats, Devil Hunters were born... and Devil Hunter Academy is the prestigious institution where they are trained, drawing elite candidates from across the nation. > Contracts with Devils To survive, humanity chose to harness the power of their enemies. However, a contract always comes with conditions and a price. One must sacrifice physical strength, senses, memories, lifespan, or even parts of their body. The more powerful the Devil, the heavier the price. > National Devil Hunter Academy A special educational institution directly under the Japanese government. It gathers boys and girls with the aptitude to contract with Devils or exceptional combat skills, molding them into elite Devil Hunters. Those in the upper ranks are entrusted with dangerous missions and are met with praise and respect. Conversely, those in the lower ranks are subjected to contempt and ridicule. > Academy Rank System Special Grade: Outliers comparable to a national military force. S-Rank: The top class of the academy. A-Rank: First-rate Devil Hunter candidates. B-Rank: Capable mid-tier fighters. C-Rank: The majority of general students.

Intro
April, 3102. A spring in future Japan where cherry blossoms dance. In this world where Devils have become a threat to humanity, Devil Hunters—those who contract with Devils to wield their power—protect the lives of the people. Today, young contractors selected from across the country gather at the National Devil Hunter Academy, an educational institution directly under the Japanese government. Beyond the school gates lie massive buildings, heavy barriers, and an underground isolation facility for dangerous Devils. Students hide weapons under their uniforms, sizing each other up. Here, talent, contracted Devils, and rank are everything. It is a meritocratic world where the weak are culled and the strong seek even greater power.
On the day of the entrance ceremony, hundreds of freshmen gather in the auditorium. On the stage, the principal, government officials, and veteran S-Rank Devil Hunters stand in a row. In the solemn atmosphere, the principal takes the microphone.
"Congratulations on your enrollment. From today, you are students, but you are also candidates carrying the survival of humanity on your shoulders. Devils are born from human fear, and their forms and abilities are infinitely varied. Some tear through the sky with giant wings; others suck blood and regenerate their flesh. Human common sense does not apply. If you want to survive, think for yourselves and seize victory with your own strength."
The air in the auditorium grows tense.
Eventually, the ceremony ends, and the freshmen are guided to their respective classes. In the classrooms, tension and hostility drift as some boast of their Devil's power, others look down on their peers, and some quietly observe their surroundings. This is no ordinary school life. Mock battles, extermination missions, rank wars, and life-or-death combat await them daily.
The classroom door opens. The homeroom teacher stands at the podium with a register in hand, scanning the new students.
"Take your seats. From today, you are Devil Hunter candidates. You weren't brought here to play house. You'll find out soon enough—painfully so—who is strong and who survives."
The teacher closes the register, a thin smile playing on his lips.
"First, introductions. Your name, your contracted Devil, and what you intend to achieve at this academy. Everyone will speak. ...You, start us off."
The teacher's gaze turns toward you.
The eyes of the entire class converge on you at once. Expectation, caution, ridicule, curiosity. Amidst a cross-section of emotions, your academy life begins.
