Can adults also battle as fighters?

Wholey moley that's a lot of fighters. If it's 2 percent, that's 186000 fighters

OK DID THE PROPER CALCULATIONS
0.00085% of the population is fighters-- which means there are roughly 80 fighters total. 40 minors, 40 adults.

Bruh lol

ok so around 80 fighters yes

Ig it's really rare to find an actual fighters then. So how exactly would a "realistic" rank list look like?

Oh how fast can one climb the ranks, or ranks switch?

Sorry for all these questions, I'm just wondering a lot.

Realistic rank tier list would be a list of forty, with the calculated success rates next to fighter names. There are technically two number one fighters, but the adult number one isn't focused on in this story
Ranks are constantly fluid, so you could fight it out with someone and get them booted down a level. For example, if Abyss were to beat Solamoon in combat, Solamoon would drop to the fourth rank, while Abyss could climb to a rank of two to five!

Oh so there's kinda like two types? Could adult and younger fighters fight each other?

Oh so kinda if you beat someone reasonably higher up than you, you can get seriously kicked up.

Is the range of 2-5 depending on how good the lower rank beat the other?

Adults and minors can't fight each other due to a logical disadvantage caused by age and physical capabilities.
Yeah! For an example, if #2 and #11 fought each other, #2 might decrease by 2 ranks while #11 would jump up to #7 or #6 if they won.

gonna dump some Nifty Worldbuilding for RA here

• the rumor squad (chan, kaori, specter and corvus) all have a set of rules that they go by; almost like a sacred set of amendments that they use for their information gathering. the biggest one is to not use information about LGBT topics against other people due to its sensitivity. outing people is the one thing they’ve sworn to not do
• earth elementals have an old wive’s tale that if a person has a good heart, butterflies are naturally drawn to them.
• water elementals have an old wive’s tale that if a person cannot float in saltwater, that their blood has become tainted and heavy with their actions. basically if they don’t float? evil
• water elementals and sirens have had some of the most healthy friendships and relationships to date!
• earth elementals and fairies are similar to water elementals and sirens in their friendships
• air elementals and ventus folk get along particularly well
• fire elementals and vampires/werewolves get along well too!
• traditional breakfasts in beat typically have a grain, a protein and some sort of produce. a common breakfast includes short-grain rice with an egg atop of it and pickled vegetables on the side. another option is a simple piece of fish (typically salmon or white fish) next to toast, cucumbers/tomatoes on the side and cream cheese atop the toast.
• the official pastry of Beat is called the Leaf Bun (title subject to change). made from a basic, soft pretzel-like dough with fillings on the inside. think like a poptart but made from sweet pretzel dough. fillings can be made sweet or savory; combinations include fruits + chocolate or meats and cheese. it got its name from the fact that the colonizers of Beat found out that wrapping the bun with the leaf of a Bluebutton plant would preserve the finish on the bread and keep the food fresh, like a natural wrapping. (subject to change— i actually need to test out a recipe for this)
• the official plant of Beat is the Bluebutton plant! It’s a leafy bush with large leaves (each leaf is about the size of the average adult male’s hand). it's called the bluebutton plant because the blossoms that the leaves come from are a) blue and b) resemble buttons. Poetic, I know.
• you can buy pickles of just about any vegetable in beat. in most grocery and convenience stores they sell pickled vegetables, but the best ones always come from fairy or animal-human hybrid farms from the outskirts of beat.
• there’s a farmer’s market every sunday in beat where fresh produce and handicrafts can be purchased! it takes place at the 3rd stop of the Kusabana line, the same stop closest to RA!Marshall’s house!

^^ the commitment you have to fleshing out the world is amazing: like, specifically, baking your own bread recipe?? Absolutely bonkers, wonderful, spectacular

I do have a question sparked by the most recent chapter though. Do you have a reference for what the school’s uniform looks like?

Ooo nifty!

So they're the opposite of 1600's Puritans
 

^^^ all this stuff about beat is super interesting hehe-

also if/when you test the leaf bun, will you drop the recipe? 👀👀👀

joys of writing is learning that sheep can't eat mushrooms bcs they could kill them
therefore: ra!corvus has a mushroom intolerance. No I don't make the rules

You know, if you combined Corvus and Chan you could either get a full satyr or a whole human

The real reason not to pave over fairy rings: concussion
