[Again, I'm sorry for not uploading for the last two or three days. I injured my fingers. However, I have three chapters ready, but I need to edit them. So, tomorrow, I will upload three chapters, and I will try to upload two more chapters.]

[Name: Devin Ford]

[Innate Skill: Reader's View]
[Skill: Basic Swordmanship, Master Thief, Intermideate Mana Manipulation, Intermediate Fistfighting, Intermediate Movement]
[Spell: Mana Thread]
[Grade: Low 5th Grade]

[Name: Yumi]
[Bloodline: Iron Grade]
[Innate Skill: Devil's Daughter]
[Skill: Master Scavenger, Intermediate Fistfighting, Intermediate Movement, Basic Fire Elements]
[Spell: Fireball, Fireburst]
[Grade: High 5th Grade]
This is my and Yumi's current state. Aside from my swordsmanship, all other skills are at an intermediate level.
The Skill Levels are Basic, Intermediate and Advanced, Master etc...
In 9 to 1 Grade of people could learn skills of Basic, Intermediate and Advanced but they couldn't learn Master levale skills.
To reach the Master level skill set, one must reach F Grade.
However, I have the skill of a Master Thief, and Yumi has the skill of a Master Scavenger because we used to do these things since our childhood.
I stole a lot of food in my old world for almost ten years. Because of that, I developed the Master Thief skill even without reaching the F Rank.
The same goes for Yumi, and not to mention that all S Class members will have a Master Skill without even reaching the F Rank.
When the teacher gave us a training program in the S Class, all the students trained for a week and improved one of their skills to Master Level. However, compared to them, Yumi and I are at the lowest levels.
I'm in 5th Low Grade, while she is in 5th High Grade. While these grades are impressive for our age (we are only 16 years old), our talents are top-class. The problem is that in the S Class, our grades are the lowest.
In the S Class, most students are the 1st Grade, just a step away from the F Rank. This week, Elmer, Ava, and Eri also became 2nd Grade because they had a good opportunity in a dungeon.
In the novel, after receiving the training program, those three headed to the dungeon and got an opportunity that raised their grade to 2nd.
After 2nd Grade is 3rd Grade, and the only person in the S Class with 3rd Grade is Yuri, the princess of Elmora Kingdom, where Harmony Academy is situated.
There is not a single person with 4th Grade, which makes Yumi and me the lowest in the class with 5th Grade.
Now, we are weaker than the others. To catch up with them, I need to think of some ways because in this novel, all S Class members periodically get opportunities, and their own talents make them stronger and stronger.
Even Elmer, the protagonist of the novel, is sometimes left behind by others. Yumi is good; she has her own opportunities to grow stronger. But she will gain those opportunities only if she leaves my side. Because of me, she will not follow the same path as the novel and will miss her opportunity.
So, first things first, I have to make sure she gets all those things she needs to grow stronger while also finding opportunities for myself.
My next plan is to take Yuri Elmora, the princess of this kingdom, to the Blood Moon Dungeon. There, Yumi and Yuri will find something that will make them as strong as the others, and I might find something for myself as well.
However, tomorrow, there is the first event of the S Class that will go on for three days, so I have to wait for that event to end.
Still, before the event starts, I need to take a little revenge.

Maxwell Lio, a young man who likes to bully others, came to the back side of the academy as usual. Not many people could see him here, and he had brought a weak-looking boy with him.
He looked at the boy and then ordered him to bark like a dog. When the boy barked like a dog, it made Maxwell feel superior.
(Maxwell Lio, haha, good, good... You have good qualifications to inherit my teaching.)
"Who the hell spoke that?" Lio heard the voice and looked around. He didn't see anyone other than this boy. He frowned.
