Reborn as an Extra - Chapter 28

Chapter 28: 27.1 Extra chapter…Power intro! (Skippable)
Power Hierarchy of the world: –

Every rank has early (S-), middle (S) and peak stage (S+). Non-awakeners are not included in this power scale as they are ordinary beings and aren’t able to use mana at will.

Rank-G: The lowest rank for any creature of any race present.

Every newly awakened is in this category, except for some powerful races (Like Dragons) and extremely talented individuals (Like Link Rex, the villain), who directly start from rank E from birth.

Rank-F: The stage every talentless awakener can achieve. Even the slightest bit of hard work can help you achieve this rank. (This was the original talent potential of Fade before he awakened his system)

Rank-E: A bit more talent and hard work can make you achieve this. For most creatures in the world this is their highest limit. (Most of the students are in this rank right now.)

Rank-D: Talent is still the important factor, and hard work is also important. This realm is the highest among low-rank awakeners. (Lia, Kira and other top 10 students are in this rank right now.)

Rank-C: Only one out of every 500 awakeners awakens the C rank talent. This is said to be the first step towards the actual starting line of being a proper awakener. (This was Rio’s original talent potential)

Rank-B: After rank-C there’s a major bottleneck, which needs hard work and suitable conditions to breakthrough Rank-B.

Rank B makes a way for improvement in stats of every awakener. Mana blesses your physique, and you are able to break through the limits of your ordinary physical capabilities. (Currently Rio is stuck at 50; this is the reason.)

Condition for advancement:

– You should have talent potential of rank-B or above.

– Use mana to successfully break through your physical limits and advance further.

Rank-A: Only one out of every fifty thousand B rankers becomes an A rank. There’s no particular condition; you only need to fulfill one criteria, which is to find your own ‘Path’. (This will be explained in later volumes more deeply…)

Rank-S: A major step in a creature’s journey of strength. You can break through your racial limits once you advance in this realm. (Like 100 stat points are the racial limit for humans.)

Reaching this realm means you have left behind your mortal coils and you have become closer to the status of an ascended being.

Conditions for advancement:

– You should have talent potential of rank-S or above.

– Pass the calamity of genetic ascension and withstand the immense power of the ‘Law’ of ‘Mana’.

– You should be able to endure the pain inflicted by racial advancement. (Most of the awakeners die in this process.)

Rank-SS: The current peak of strength in this world.

Currently, only three such individuals exist in human race. These beings can control immense power; travelling through space and shattering planets to bits is child’s play for them.

There’s no limit placed on their stats.

These individuals can already be considered literal ‘Demi-gods’! Some people even worship them in the world.

Condition for advancement:

– Enduring extreme pain due to breaking of limits on the body and mana quality improvements, enduring the pressure of the world’s gaze, and enduring the immense power of the ‘Law’ of ‘Mana’.

– Talent SS or above. (This is the main reason why there’s so few SS-rank individuals. Only one or two individuals with such talent appears in 100’s of years in a race.)

– Reach peak of S rank and ‘Solidify’ breakthrough the mortality of an ordinary creature, ascend and grasp ‘Authority’.

Rank-SSS: No individual is in this rank right now. Information Unknown…. (Link Rex, the villain has the talent potential to reach this rank, but he was never able to reach it as he died in Fade’s hands.)

Condition for advancement: Unknown….

Remark: (A rank above demi-god, what could it be? Tell me in comments.)

…

Aside from this, there are Pseudo realms.

For example, when an S-ranker ascends to the next realm but fails to gain ‘Authority’ then he will be stronger than S-rankers but weaker than genuine SS-rankers.

This is how the psuedo realms work.

…

The power of the ‘Laws’ of the ‘World’ governs everything; there are ‘Legendary Skill’ in this world that use the power of the ‘Laws’.

Thus, the people who have these skills can’t be evaluated according to this power standard, as they can kill stronger people of higher realms easily with such skills.
