Development of the World

After successfully entering the school auditorium. I looked around to see about 100 students in the auditorium and most of them were senior students, who used the Juniors as bait for the undead. Some might say it was inhumane but in the end, this world is the survival of the fittest, either before Gredu's appearance or after its appearance.

[Please wait for your rewards]

I looked at the students from the auditorium window, some were pushing their friends, while some were helping each other. But in the end, what did the quest say, 10 minutes of the time limit. After 10 minutes the undead started to swarm the only path to the school auditorium.

Argh!!!!

You could hear the dying screams of the students, being eaten slowly by the undead. The girls in the auditorium closed their ears trying to avoid the screams while the boys stood silently.

"ahem...ahem" I heard a voice, and immediately looked at the stage of the auditorium. "Congratulations! Humans. You have passed the selection test."

No one was happy even though they passed the test, so many people lost their lives. Everyone looked at Gredu with sadness and despair on their faces. But there was a giant grin on its face. "So, you will now receive the rewards for completing the selection test"

Ting!

[You have completed Main Quest 1]

[Evaluating your performance...]

After 3 seconds...

[Evaluation complete!]

[Assigning Class...]

[You have obtained E+ Class]

[No one has blessed you]

[The higher beings aren't happy with your performance]

[E+

*Obtain 2 stat point whenever you level up

*Your skill limit is 6]

So, that was it. I received the second-lowest class E+, well now that I think about it, it was expected. All I did was give up on the life of Amartya, and use him. But, it was at least better than E- class, which was the weakest class. E+ class was two times stronger than E- class at the same level.

"Well, your class evaluation is done. Let's see. Woah... Two A- ranks. Thats good" said Gredu. "And...5 people with Blessings...nice. This area has the potential to grow." In that auditorium, Gredu did all the talking while we heard it in disarray. For Gredu human lives were like toys, for it to play with.

"Don't worry. The one's who ranked lower. There will be a re-evaluation soon. In some year according to your human time"

"Now, moving on to the real thing. From now this planet called earth will become a playground. And your job is to entertain higher beings. You will receive your playgrounds soon too."

"I will disappear now, after giving away these"

[Receiving starter Box E]

[Opening starter Box E]

[You have obtained 5 recovery pills, 7 E-rank item cards, obtained E-rank dungeon Key]

So, that was it. After that Gredu disappeared from the face of the earth. For the next 5 years, it didn't appear, but no one could tell if it was a good thing or a bad thing. Many good and bad things happened after Gredu left.

In the year 2021, One year after Gredu's appearance.

The world in chaos, there were monsters everywhere, the economy had died out. And nothing could be done. One day in the meeting of the UN, each government was forced to create a set of new policies called "Players".

According to this policy, the Player/ the ones who passed the evaluation test had to be given extra-governmental and financial support, do the players twice a month kill monsters in Playgrounds, places where monsters appear.

The next year 2022.

The scientists discovered that crystals dropped by the monsters in the playgrounds had great use as a fuel source and much more. The higher ranked Playground monsters had high value as jewelry beating the market of diamonds. At this time there was an update in the player policy for the A and S-ranked players. There should be a 40℅ share of the player, profited from selling the Monster Crystals. Due to this policy, the A-rank players became millionaires while the A-ranked became A rank.

The year 2023...

The economy started to stabilize at a steady rate, the growth in the 2 years was much higher than the previous 10 years. Due to the evaluation process by Gredu, the population of the world was reduced by 40℅, increasing the employment rate sky high. The laborers and homeless who barely earned money could earn money by simply clearing the Playgrounds.

In this year the profit share policy was also added to the lower ranks. E-rank: 15℅, D-rank: 20℅, C-rank: 30, B-rank: 35. The shares of A-rank increased to 49 and S-rank about 80℅. The S-rank playgrounds were the most dangerous and the risk was the highest.

In the next two years, many more policies got introduced. The Players got much more priority than normal humans. And you might wonder normal humans. Didn't everyone give the evaluation test by Gredu? About 40℅ of the surviving human race are people who didn't even give the test. And the funny thing is Amartya is still alive. He is one of the people who didn't give the test. The one's who I saw, many of the students were illusions. It's confusing.

And now... the current year 2025...

" Aah. Hello mom. How are you?" I was on a phone call with my mother. Tomorrow, I have to go to a playground, so she is scared a bit. 5 years ago, the place where my father was working disappeared. Unlike other places where the evaluation test took place, his work area got completely vanished from the face of the Earth. The authorities declared him dead.

So, I only have my mom. Even though the father went missing my mother's job kept us financially safe. But, still, Players needed to take part in a Playground raid. And tomorrow, I had to go so she called.
