Ranking System

"Everyone, today we will have a transfer student with us. I expect you all to be best when dealing with our new student."

Did the teacher have to hype me up that much? Or was this a common thing? But with a hundred students here, I doubt the teacher would care. No, he was saying that because of my rank.

Two days had passed since the day we went on our shopping trip. Over the days, I got a new phone along with a storage ring. The spacing for this thing is five by five meters long, which could carry a lot.

Since it could carry a lot, the ring was hella expensive—fifty million dollars gone like that. Let's hope I won't somehow spend 1B dollars before the end of the year.

When the teacher finished talking, Nene and I went into the classroom. With a hundred students in the room, everyone here began to observe me.

"Student Charles, why don't you introduce yourself?"

I sighed inwardly. I wasn't here to make friends so I will make a warning.

"I'm Charles Anderson. Just call me Charles. I'm incredibly petty, so as long as you don't mess with me, I don't care what you do."

My introduction won't earn me any friends. That was fine; not like I had any, to begin with.

"That certainly was an interesting introduction."

The teacher, "Mr. Trek," gave me a wry smile.

"Student Charles, why don't you make your way to an empty seat with your aide."

From the looks of it, the aides here don't have the right to sit on a chair. Everyone looked at Nene and me with interest. Both of us were at the third digit with our ranking.

The seating in this place was strange. Every row had a mini stair, making my way somewhere in the middle left.

My neighbor was a girl with white hair and blue eyes. Like me, she also had an aide. The aide was an old man that looked professional. Not everyone here had an aide.

"Reina Burgess."

The girl next to me introduced herself. Reina was the exact opposite of Nene. Her blank look made it hard to tell what she thought.

Checking her rank, she is No. 53020. One of the highest in this class. I shouldn't compare her to me. After all, I'm irregular.

"Charles Anderson."

Reintroducing myself, Reina stared at me. It was awkward, seeing her look at me intensely without saying anything.

"Sorry about my lady. She has a hard time expressing herself."

I could see that just by looking at her. Unable to say anything else, I put my concentration on the teacher.

"Did you know there are five rankings that divide each world?"

"From first being the worst and fifth being the best."

"Does anyone know what we are ranked in?"

So each world has its ranking. I wouldn't be surprised if we were ranked low.

"The second rank?"

Someone from the crowd had answered randomly, but seeing how he answered it in the form of a question, he was guessing.

"Unfortunately, we aren't. Our world is relatively new to the ranking system, so we would still be at the first rank."

"How strong are the people in the fifth rank world?"

A different student who was curious asked. That was a good question, if I had to say so.

"An average person there is hundreds of times stronger than the average person."

That is a huge difference. I wonder how the world operates. If I was there, I wonder if I could survive.

Most people here were shocked by the difference in strength. If that so happens to be the case, everyone would die the moment they landed on a fifth-rank world.

"Mr. Trek, why is there such a huge difference?"

"Every time a world ranks up, the reward for rankings also increases."

"There is good news for being in a low rank."

"Only worlds from the same rank could invade another. So worlds in the second rank and above can't attack us, or they will face a penalty."

That was good to know. A person from a fifth rank world can't just slap us to death in an instant.

Everyone who heard that sighed in relief. Knowing they would be safe from those people gave them a sense of security.

"Then how do we increase our world ranking?"

pAn,Da-n0v e1,c A student had asked. Everyone listened intently, waiting for the teacher's answer. The teacher had a regretful sigh when the student asked.

"The average strength of our world has to surpass a specific limit. Or the strongest man has to be insanely strong, which neither of us could do."

Wait, doesn't it mean we're fucked because the people in our worlds are too weak? There are certain advantages and disadvantages to being in a low-ranking world.

"Then, is there any way to change our ranking into a different world?"

"If that were possible, all the high-ranking people would have left our world long ago. You'll always be ranked in this world since you were all born here."

I then looked at Nene, seeing that her rank was shown to mean that she was born on our green and blue planet.

Before a few more discussions, the lesson was over. We will be having physical training for our next class.

"Nene, could we go back? If it is only training, could you help me with it?"

With my rank being high, it was better for me to stay away from the public view. I don't want to embarrass myself since I don't know how to fight correctly.

"Yesh~! Master~!"

Reina, beside me, looked like she wanted to say a word. But before she could do so, Nene grabbed my hand and dragged me back home.

Arriving back home, I still couldn't get used to it. With how stupidly large this place was, it was sometimes hard to forget which room was which.

Getting down to the basement, Nene started to teach me the bare basics.
