Floor Sixteen: Trouble at the Rankings Chart

The main hall at the Divers Guild was like an enormous school gymnasium housing over a hundred table seats and various facilities. For example, there were receptionist’s windows where we process paperwork before diving, a simple washing area in front of the large staircase leading to the dungeon entrance for us to rinse off dirt from clothes and armor, and a dining hall where Divers could order awful food and drinks for cheap.

One of the biggest eye-catchers there was the giant bulletin board spanning the back of the main hall. The guild posted Dungeon mission requests there as a public call for Divers to gather certain ingredients or hunt down certain monsters, and Divers posted trading requests for materials they needed.

Diver Ranks could be found on the board too, listing out Divers in the order of the magnitude of their achievements. However, the rankings only listed the top ten thousand Divers. If anyone belonged to a team, only their team name and the top-ranking member among them were listed, so there were less than ten thousand entries in reality. Having one’s name included on the list was a common dream among Divers who challenged the Gandakia Dungeon.

“Huh...” I said absentmindedly as I stared at the bulletin board when I came here after school.

The rankings were updated once a month to reflect changes based on the guild’s assessment. The Diver industry was a competitive and dangerous space, so the order on the list changed dramatically all the time. An up-and-coming team that had just made the list recently could be kicked off it or listed as disbanded, missing, or wiped out by the next update, but the top-rankers were consistently listed at the top.

In first place was the immovable hero Dracarion Hueller, aka Lion-Maru. Listed right below his name were the big three teams: Eagle’s Talon, the biggest team in Freida, which had inconvenienced everyone by hogging up the entire main hall a while ago; Order of the Black Dawn, the team with a cringey name, comprising members of many different races; and Brave Wings, which, although smaller than the other two, had many powerful Divers in their team. A little further down the list, I found Miguel’s team Bacchus Hawks.

There were a bunch of other individual names, but mine obviously wasn’t listed—I was rank 38,038. I wouldn’t get on the rankings unless I slaved away doing dungeon missions for the guild, made a good impression on Ashley and gained her trust, and did well on the ranking exams. The missions were assigned based on rank, so they’d be pretty easy for my level, to be honest. Ashley liked me, so I wouldn’t have an issue on that end...I think. The problem was the exam: the rank-up exam was always done in the morning, which was pretty harsh for a student like me. I’d given up on it because I didn’t want to ruin my perfect school attendance, but I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t interested in getting my name on the list.
