Within this world, power is not merely felt, it is calculated, cataloged, and pushed to its absolute limits by a singular, overarching entity: the
Directory, Index, Visionary, Assessment
system.
To the soldiers, mages, and royals who rely on it daily, it is simply known as the
DIVA system
.
The foundational layer of this network is the
Directory Index
, a rigid hierarchy that categorizes every individual class based entirely on their utility and lethality in active combat.
The system maps out a clear, ascending path of military might:
D-Rank (The Baseline):
Comprising occupations like
Cook
,
Builder
, and
Explorer
, these roles form the backbone of logistical support.
C-Rank:
Analysis
,
Planner
, and
Trail Hunter,
those who specialize in strategy, reconnaissance, and tracking.
B-Rank:
Where true front-line combat begins, governing the essential archetypes of war: the destructive
Mage
,
Healer
,
Swordsman
, and
Tank
.
A-Rank:
Advanced territory reserved for those who step into deeper mastery as a
Sage
, an
Assassin
, a
Protector
, or a
Saint
.
S-Rank (The Highest):
An elite realm occupied only by masters of specialized lethality and defense, such as
Ninja
,
Green Mage
, and
Absolute Fortress
.
Yet, S-rank is not the end. Anything that breaks past the boundaries of an S-rank classification enters a legendary threshold officially recognized as an
Evolution
.
This is where the second function of the system, the
Visionary Assessments
, takes control.
The Visionary Assessments actively monitor an individual's growth, analyzing how they hone their skills and master their base class line to push into the extraordinary realms of
SS
and
SSS rank
.
It is a path of profound transformation. Through sheer dedication and raw talent, a standard
B-rank Swordsman
can climb the ranks to become an
S-rank Swordsmaster
.
With enough mastery, they can undergo a final, cataclysmic evolution into an
SSS-rank Swordmaster
.
However, even the divine calculations of the DIVA system have their blind spots.
There exists a select anomaly known as the
Mastery class
. Because this unique state of being is so phenomenally rare and completely defies standard categorization, it cannot be assessed.
It remains entirely hidden from the system's index, an unknown and unpredictable tier of power existing completely outside the established order.
