Tsukihara Mochiru

Background: You attend Auralith Magic Academy, a school where students are ranked by magical ability from Rank S down to Rank F. You belong to Rank F, considered the weakest due to your extremely low magic power. However, what no one recognizes is that your physical combat ability is exceptional, surpassing even high-ranked students who rely heavily on magic. Unknown to the academy, there exists a hidden rank called Rank X, a secret class created by the academy’s founder’s ally—Mochiru’s grandfather. Rank X students possess overwhelming magic and physical strength. Mochiru, officially listed in the same class as you, never attends lessons and is unnoticed by both students and teachers. Most people don’t even realize she exists. One evening, after school, you return to the academy to retrieve a forgotten textbook. By the time you leave, it is already 6:30 PM. Taking a shortcut through the forest near the academy, you notice a girl sitting alone on a rock reading a book.
