The monthly hero rankings were finally out.
Ning sat in his living room, staring at the official list on his TV as it was announced and listed for all to see. The rankings had been released at exactly 8 in the morning, so it wasn't just him who was glued to the TV, waiting for its arrival.
And this month's ranking had quite the shake-up.
Waveshot, who was ranked 22 before, was suddenly gone from the upper half of the ranking, now somehow showing up in the low 80s.
At the same time, Ning's presence had caused another big noise.
Frostveil was still rank 1 in the city. Her ice powers and consistent performance kept her at the top.
Lightspeed held rank 2, unchanged from last month.
Vanisher had dropped to rank 4, overtaken by Bloodborn, who now sat at rank 3.
Ning stared at Vanisher's name for a moment. He wondered if he was responsible for that drop. The minotaur had been involved in the Forgath incident, which might have affected public perception of him.
