Chapter 4 - Class SS

15 years of awaited training. Nothing out of the ordinary happened on the run but it's been a solid run so far. Now I'm 19 and I'm still running like a macho-man.

I can confidently say that I've mastered my Spec. My coach retired and now I'm about to leave my dorm. In a span of 2 weeks, I'll be moving outa here, and apparently I'm moving to this new class? It's called class SS. It contains a fair amount of students and has one teacher. The Titles are quite odd. Why is everything in this academy so odd?

Supposedly their name is dependent on ranks. The ranks are ranked all the way from D to S. I guess I was ranked S. I didn't feel like I was, although it doesn't depend on me. There is also a special rank after S. It is called "Rank X" This rank doesn't just flex, it provides. When you are rank X, first of all, you need a Spec, a really good Spec. Rank X provides a special eye that comes within. Most of the rank X members have it but a small amount of them don't.

So the real ranks are "Rank D, Rank C, Rank B, Rank A, Rank S, and Rank X," There is also a Spec system. Which ranks the rarity of your Spec.

Firstly, when I was 10 I figured something out. It made me "Depressed" apparently when I got my Spec when I was a baby. My soul got replaced with the Spec's soul. This isn't even me. It's my Spec. It hurts to figure it out, but I have to live. I still think as I do, but I can truly say this isn't me. That was written on the 224th page of my journal. Perhaps I needed to stop stressing over my own writings.

As I flipped to page 112 I found a written sequence of the ranks of Specs. It was dependent upon strength and rarity. The higher rarity is already classified as unusual strength. I wouldn't say strength, but powers in general.

No.1 was written "Common" Which is what I thought I initially had until I found out I had a rarer Spec than that base.

The second was written "Irregular Spec" A man aging back from 74 years ago named "Akiro Mitsuki" Classified the Spec's into these rarities.

The third one was written "Primal Spec" I remember deliberately writing this on an empty mind when I was eating a food I couldn't remember. I was one rank above this, it oddly made me quite flabbergasted knowing I had a "Divine Spec" It honestly didn't feel like I had it, until I scanned my Spec and it turned out to be that way. Quite elegant if you ask me.

The 5th was named "Celestial Spec" There actually is a big gap between a Divine and Celestial. This is where your Spec can get into multiple powers. Yeah, when you have a Celestial Spec, you don't get closed with one power, but multiple. I remember how arrogant I was remembering that I could've had a Celestial Spec.

The one after this, also the 6th one is "Cataclysmic Spec" This one had a section of more unique options.

The last one was "Calamity Spec" It is a very rare rarity, I've never once seen anyone have it although this man named "Khaleos Achilies" had it back in the days I wasn't even born. Apparently, he was the first one with it. I looked into him and found out that he died at the age of 29 supposedly of pancreatic cancer.

It was unfortunate since he had an adopted daughter who only had 7 years with him. She apparently is now the co-leader of an organization called "APEX" Rising her way up the boards. Luckily enough, she also had a "Calamity Spec" Unfortunately on the internet it doesn't let you browse through any of the powers. She was also a special in normal daily acitivities.

Those were all the rankings for the Specs. I couldn't say if I was really into specs my whole life but trying to understand what this life even means.

A few hours later it had turned. A man who was in a black suit called my name from outside my door. I wore my clothes which were a plain suit and did my hair and walked out and he greeted me with a "My name's Shinroku Hiko, I'm going to be one of the students in Class SS. I need you to follow me to class SS for the meeting, I suppose," He walked away to the class as I followed behind him not talking and right as I turned I got jumpscared by this tall dude.

I didn't really tell but I closed my eyes and let it happen. He grabbed my back and said "My name's Kisaragi, you can just call me Rin, you look ugly either way, I should've let you fall." Quite out of the odd again, I didn't expect a guy to pull a stupid prank on me. I bet I could even beat him right now if I had to but I wouldn't. Rin followed me as I followed Hiko as Hiko followed... himself.

We arrived at the classroom which was on the first floor. And embarrassingly enough I realised that this was the classroom I slept in the closet.

Hiko told me that the previous students here died In a car accident. I didn't know they were allowed to say horror stories like that.

Brushed it off as I went to my seat which has my name and the number 7. As a kid, I always believed the number 7 had a distinct luck to it. I was glad of that seat, maybe I can get lucky in the future, who knows.

And that idiot, Rin sat right next to me. He might evenscare me again.

The other guy had long straight hair and a light bulb tattooed on his right arm. He told me that the rest of the students will be arriving soon.

I wondered how many there were. The classroom felt weird. It has 6 stairs going up with about 2 seats on each stair. It felt weird but for the aesthetic, I liked it.
