For her to be surprised, it must mean that either something unusual happened or something unexpected happened. Although she was in the support division, she had every right to be here. However, she would have never dreamed that Matthew would be here as well.
She's never seen him before, but she did hear that he was strong. Strong enough to be named as one of the four freshman royalty.
Freshman royalty was a term given to the strongest freshman entering the academy. From the professor's point of view, they could easily dominate over their compet.i.tion given enough resources.
Normal freshman could not even compete against them; they'd stand no chance in a fight.
She liked to keep track of the rankings; it gave her something to do when she was bored. Plus it was nice to know who your compet.i.tion was. But Matthew was not a compet.i.tion; he was a monster.
She couldn't believe that he was here.
One must know that an EXO user takes a test to show off their abilities, they are then chosen to join one of the academies. These academies then broke them down into a ranking based on the skills they displayed. When starting out everyone would pay attention to the ranking as it showcased a lot about a person.
Usually, these ranks would stay the same, but sometimes they would s.h.i.+ft slightly.
Even though there were four freshman royalties, she only knew of two of them. Matthew was one, and Scarlet was the other. As for the other two, she had no clue as they wanted to conceal their ident.i.ties.
In a normal situation, these four would belong to either the offensive or defensive division, but never had their been one that belonged to the support division.
Matthew noticed the change in her expression but didn't say anything.
"Why are you here? Well, why are you in the support division?"
"It seems that controlling gravity is not listed under offense or defense. This is because previously there were only two other people who could control gravity, but what they could do with it was only place pressure down on their targets. It would never be enough to crush their foe, but it was enough to support their teammates. My control over it is more powerful than theirs, and I'm able to do much more. However, as gravity control is listed as support and known as being a support type EXO throughout the world… here I am."
"What rank is you EXO?"
"Somewhere between A and S, one professor said that if I developed it correctly, I'd have a chance to make it S+, but if I didn't then, i'd at most develop it into S-. Whatever the case is, he was sure by the time I graduate my gravity control would be an S rank. How about you Freya?"
"Eh, mines is only B+ with a chance to break into the A rank. But I'm nothing like you; I'm not only able to see the essence that flows in the body. But, I can also copy a skill I've seen before."
The two of them glanced at Nick. They already said what they were capable of so it was natural for them to suspect that he would do so as well.
When he saw their looks, he could only sigh inwardly. It had to be known that giving away your EXO ability rank could cause for discrimination. If it was too low, then people would pay you no mind. If it was too high, everyone would treat you with respect.
Nick did not want there to be any change in this small relations.h.i.+p that they just built. Thus he didn't want to tell them his rank. He was not ashamed of his rank as he knew rank did not correlate to skill. Even if this was the case, many people did not believe such a thing.
"It's called Providence; it allows me to see the channels inside the body which shows the flow of the essence of EXO and the type. It is only D rank."
What Nick didn't tell them was that Providence was also capable of seeing the weak points in that flow, causing either disruption or crippling of his target.
He was the not the only person who had this type of EXO, but there was only one other person that he knew that did. That person was his mother. Very little was known about this type of EXO. If he didn't experiment with it before even he would believe that it was only capable of seeing the flow of the essence of EXO.
Freya and Matthew seemed to pay the rank no mind. Given the fact that Matthew could crush people with his support skill he knew first hand that the type of EXO you had and the rank of it did not determine the outcome of a fight. What mattered was how you used it.
Freya, on the other hand, didn't really care for ranks. All she cared about was who was at the top. She believed in hard work. If one trained hard enough, then they could overcome what people believed they could not do and achieve an even greater height.
