Ranking System

And just like that, two days had passed, and it was time to move. I had everything ready and was prepared to leave.

I had done everything I needed to do within these two days. I had cursed my landlord, people I hated, and both of my parents.

It was good that I could cast my ability from a long range, making it impossible for them to notice me.

The curse I cast on them wasn't strong, but it would make them suffer. I hated every one of them. I didn't want them to have it easy. That was why I might have my curse weak.

My drive to the academy was out, and I was supposed to go out. Exiting my door, someone had blocked my way.

"Master~."

As I left my apartment, a girl with cat ears and a tail behind her appeared out my door. With her calling me master, I was confused about why.

"Master?"

"Yes, master~!"

From our interaction, she seems like a cheerful and playful person. But I don't know who she is. But when I observed her rank, she was ranked 893. I don't know why someone like her is acting like a maid.

"Do I know you?"

"Master~ I'm your new maid~."

My maid? Did Linsey give her to me? Observing her, I could say that she looked pretty good. If she is my maid, then I will accept it.

Her long black hair and blue eyes were memorable. She was smaller than me and was cute. But her maid outfit that was pretty revealing on her top chest made her more sexy than cute.

"Are you from the Interdimensional Union Committee?"

Even if she was nice to look at, I had to confirm whether or not she was working for me. It would be awkward if she wasn't my maid and I acted like her boss.

"Yes~"

To make extra sure, I called Linsey. Along with me being sent back from teleportation, she gave me her number.

"Did you send me a cat maid?"

"Like her? I'm pretty fond of her. Make sure you keep her safe."

Linsey had immediately canceled the call right when she finished talking. I then looked at my new maid, and she smiled back.

"Do you have a name to go by?"

"I'm Nene~!"

Looking at her ears, I could see that they were moving. So she wasn't wearing a costume but is an actual cat girl.

Two hundred years ago when these rankings appeared out of nowhere. Not only did people gain some power of some kind.

But other worlds had appeared. It was good to see they were friendly.

Since our world had come in late into this power, our world was given one hundred years' worth of grace period.

And since then, the world has become more hectic. While other races were rare, it wasn't like you wouldn't see them once in a while.

Nene, here was someone from another world. I wondered what made her want to become a maid. I wasn't close to her, so I will refrain from asking for now.

"Then Nene, I'm going to move. Could you help me carry some of my luggage?"

"Yes~!"

Her hyperactive personality was refreshing to see. Before I had my ranking released, everyone looked at me with scorn.

So meeting someone like her was a first for me. I didn't have much luggage to bring with me. Only the things I owned were brought. But with the money I got, I'm unsure if I need them.

With the car waiting outside, we hurried up not to waste any more time. The car waiting for us was the newest version of a flying car.

Not only were they expensive, but they were also hard to drive. There was this one unfortunate accident that had occurred, and I was almost rammed by it.

Going inside the car, it was Jasmine who was driving. I didn't think I would meet her so soon.

"Jasmine~!"

"Nene..."

Nene had called her out when seeing her. From their interaction, they seem to have some history together. Jasmine looked uncomfortable dealing with my maid.

"Jasmine, Linsey hasn't told me which academy I will attend. Could you tell me something about it?"

I tried calling Linsey about the academy, but her exact response was, "You will know when you have arrived." That wasn't helpful in the slightest.

Driving the car, we started to float. While driving, Jasmine explained the school I would be attending.

"You will be attending Brave Academy."

Brave Academy? Despite its stupid-sounding name, it was the most prestigious academy one could attend.

The goal of Brave Academy was to create a "Hero." By heroes, I meant someone who is at the top of the top in the overall ranking.

With the one-hundred-year grace period, we had gained some time to allow us to grow. Once the grace period was over, some people from a different world tried their best to invade us.

The top dogs of our world had defended by defeating the invaders and had earned us temporary peace.

Not letting this peace get to us, every country in the world decided to pour all its resources into an academy.

That's right. It's Brave academy. The school that I'm going to attend. There were rumors around that this school was pretty cruel.

Even if you attend this school, ranking is everything. The lower ranks of this school get treated like dirt. In comparison, the top is treated like kings. That was why Linsey had said this.

"With your rank and ability, you won't have to worry much in a place like this."

"Attending class isn't mandatory, but with your background and knowledge, it is suggested that you do."

"Anything that the academy teaches is worthwhile. The teachers there hand pick the best of the best."

Listening to Jasmine, she suggested that I should go to class. What she said was true. I lack information about everything.

Nene, who was beside me, tried to cheer me up. Having a maid sure was sweet.
