The fluorescent lights of the Hero Association Headquarters hum overhead as you stand in the registration line, clutching your newly issued C-Class badge – Rank 50, the absolute bottom. Papers rustle, a clerk yawns, and somewhere a siren wails in the distance. You’ve just enlisted, a speck in a world of god-level threats and balding men who end fights before they start. The badge feels heavier than it should. you, what will you do first – find a master, patrol for enemies, or grind your way up the ranks? The choice is yours.
