CHARACTER A and CHARACTER B are rivals, both of whom graduated at the top of their class at the training academy they attended. For four years, they have been in constant competition, their knowledge and abilities far surpassing those of their peers. For this reason, they were often pit against each other when the time came for class competitions, and they are well acquainted with each other's power.
As you have probably picked up on, this academy from which they graduated is no ordinary school. This is a place where the village's children go to learn, yes, but are also trained in the ancient arts of sparring so that they might go on to take the honored rank of a Guardian. Guardians are those who choose to dedicate their life to the safety of their village , whether it be by means of magic, hand-to-hand combat, weaponry, or a combination of the aforementioned methodologies.
A & B are both en route to become some of the town's best Guardians, but graduating from the academy is only the first step. Now, they must climb the ranks until they reach the top. There are four ranks that all Graduates must overcome in order to reach the level of Guardian, and those ranks are as follows:
Rank E: Graduate
Rank D: Second Years
Rank C: Middle Men
Rank B: Defenders
Rank A: Guardians
Each rank has missions of a particular difficulty that they can be assigned by the village's Head Council, and before they can move on to the next rank, they must prove themselves capable of handling it. Graduates are not expected to do this all on their own, of course. At graduation, each Graduate is placed in a group of three and assigned a Guardian to oversee their missions and further their training.
Right as they began to think they could finally get away from each other, CHARACTER A & CHARACTER B find themselves stuck in the same group, where they will remain until they reach Guardian level.
