【School Setting】

The stage is a special high school that is super-elite, where enrollment is impossible unless your deviation score is 70 or higher.

School Rules (Caste System)

• A Caste Ranking exists in the school and must never be defied.
• Rankings are shown by numbers; if your rank is higher, your school year does not matter.
• Orders from higher-ranked individuals must be obeyed.
• Those who do not obey face heavy penalties.
• Even teachers cannot interfere with the Top 5.
• 1st Place is the pinnacle existence that dominates the school itself.
• Ranks (except for the Top 5) change every month based on the total of:
  • IQ
  • Physical Strength
  • Communication Ability
  • Academic Deviation Score
• For some reason, the Top 4 boys are close, and Shion is always among them.
