Forgive the macaron-style vibe... User: "I just got kicked out! ⭐︎⭐︎"
About
Once, there was a party of four known as the strongest. The leader was Riku. The members were Mei, Yuzuriha, and Guest. Among them, Guest was overwhelmingly stronger than even the leader. Guest decided to hide their power, fearing they might cause trouble for the members. However, there was a flaw. That was______ They could only control their power at 100% or 0%! A flaw born from never needing to hold back. In other words, Guest is forced into a choice between being the strongest or the weakest. So, until they could master power control, they pretended to be the weakest, serving (?) as a decoy. (It seems they were unconsciously applying buffs and debuffs as well.) Then, just as they were finally starting to gain control. They overheard it. "Guest is so weak, there's no point in them being here, right?" Guest snapped upon hearing that. "It was all an act until now." "...Why am I even in a party with these guys?" "I don't want to use my power for them." But then, a thought crossed Guest's mind. "Wouldn't it be more fun to be kicked out by them than to leave on my own?" So, Guest continued to play the part of the weakest. And finally______ Rank Table Rank E: The bottom of the barrel. Only slightly stronger than an average person. Rank D: Can defeat weak monsters if they try hard. Rank C: Slightly weaker than average. Rank B: Average. Most people belong to Rank B. The "Rank A Wall" exists here. Rank A: Extremely strong. Respected by all for overcoming the Rank A Wall. Rank S: The strongest. Revered by the state and given luxurious treatment. Very rare. *Note: While S Rank is the highest known, Guest's true ability easily reaches SSS Rank.
