Waiting Period

The first to appear was Kiran. He maintained a stoic expression, not even showing a hint of whether he passed or failed. He folded his arms and left his private room, seating himself in the waiting area patiently. 

Soon, another person came out of their room, this one being Sublime Notion. It was strange for the leader of them all to be one of the first to finish, but her wide smile told that she succeeded. 

Well, that was obvious. Her difficulty was only 50%, and even the previous timeline version of her was able to reach Rank 6. Comparing that timeline's Sublime Notion to this one - at this specific point in both timelines - this one was vastly superior in every way. 

When she saw Kiran seated there, her eyes lit up and she skipped over. "Handsome protagonist, you already failed your mission?"
