Solo Leveling: The Difference Between National Level Hunters and S-Rank

In Solo Leveling, power is not something that you train for; it is something that is inherited. During the initial awakening of a person as a Hunter, mana is counted once. This gives them a rank, which remains permanent. An E-Rank will always be an E-Rank, and even the most gifted A-Rank hunter will spend a lifetime knowing that he or she can never become an S-Rank. It is the ugly truth of the system: you are born lucky, or not.
