《Heart of the Dungeon》Chapter 2 - The Grades.
Advertisement
Mining: Average speed. Could not mine higher than one block and could not mine proper ceilings.
Final Grade: F.
Digging: Fast digger through soil and quite good through other materials too. However, could not come up again, which made him useless for solo deep digging. A critical flaw, since he needed to have a helper with him which doubles the cost.
Final Grade: F.
Cleaning: Great floor cleaner, however could not clean the walls higher than one block and could not clean the ceilings.
Final Grade: E.
Cooking: Quite good when making small meals. But had problems moving around when cooking for many in large kitchens.
Final Grade: D.
Washing: Very good. Put in extra amount of effort compared to everyone else. Some problems with large objects but used special techniques and more effort to overcome it.
Final Grade: A.
Sewing: Very good. Slight problem with gigantic fabrics but for regular clothing he was one of the best in class. If not 'the' best.
Final Grade: A.
Decorating: Made nice and comfy floor areas. Could not decorate the higher walls and ceilings though, which made his rooms dull.
Final Grade: E.
Wall fortification: The lower part of the wall was well made. The upper? Not so much.
Final Grade: F.
Mage assistant: Could not reach the upper shelves in the library, when tasked with gathering books and then returning them. Which was the main job for him. Otherwise worked hard after I cast a mute spell on him.
Final Grade: E.
Blacksmith assistant: Could not do the above fanning at all. His side fanning was better, but above fanning is much more comfortable and cooling. Pumping air into the fire with the pump was not done properly. Had to ask a mage for a mute spell.
Final Grade: E.
Torture assistant: Wiped off blood and other things from the floor with great skill. Could not clean the higher walls and ceilings from splatter though. Cleaned weapon and tools nicely. Had to gag him after the victims complained he was worse than the actual torture. Maybe a future career?

Final Grade: B, thanks to his great potential.
Portal greeter: The strongest mouth flapping skill I have ever seen, but it’s not the quantity that matters. It's the quality. What good is a thousand words, if someone else can convince the same monster with ten words?
Final Grade: D.
Livestock feeder: Took good care of them. Had some trouble getting a wild chicken down from a pillar, but solved it by throwing another chicken at it. Almost got stampeded by the larger livestock when feeding them, since he walked around on the ground, instead of feeding them from the air, like normal.
Final Grade: C.
Carrier: As long as the object's destination was the ground, there were no problems. However, he could not cross lava rivers, water lakes, great chasms or anything higher up. That is a very big weakness, and severely reduces his value when needing a carrier.
Final Grade: E.
Trap layer: Things like tripwire, spikes and rolling boulders on the ground went fine. Anything that came from above was literally impossible for him to set up. He almost got crushed himself instead.
Final Grade: E.
Room constructor: Ground based rooms were decent. Had problems with lamps, torches, pillars or anything that reached up high. Cannot recommend him for this job.
Final Grade: F.
Small nest constructor: Very good. As long as it was for a tiny creature, there were no problems.
Final Grade: B.
Large nest constructor: No, just no. Too slow and shoddy quality. This is where the main non-sentient fighting force lives. Only the highest quality is acceptable! His roofs were atrocious, filled with holes. The upper walls missing paint and most of the planks were only leaning against each other.
Final Grade: F.
Runner: Best in class! Thanks to no wings, he weighed less than the others. It also helped reduce the drag.

Final Grade: A.
Flying: No wings. Disgusting and a disgrace. Should be expelled.
Final Grade: F-.
Climber: No wings, so weighted less. Falling meant death since he could not stop a fall. Not very good overall. Small arms and feet. Pot belly and clumsy.
Final Grade: C.
Fighter: As long as flying was forbidden, he did decent. However, the free form and air combat was a complete disaster. After all, he could not fly.
Final Grade: E.
Trader: Thought about what he needed and tried his best to get it. However, after being tricked several times, he lost everything. Naive and gullible but with a good heart. A good heart is unacceptable when trading. Only profit matters.
Final Grade: E.
Theoretic knowledge: He spent ten thousand years taking this course. It would be an unprecedented disgrace if he did not somewhat learn it.
Final Grade: A.
Total:
A: 4.B: 2.C: 2.D: 2.
E: 8.
F: 6.
Low class servant: Very fitting. Recommended direction.
Middle class servant: Not recommended, but possible with the right jobs and orders.
High class servant: No. Never.
Prime Imp: Serve the Heart personally? Absolutely impossible. Do not accept him not matter how desperate you are. Which would be odd since we always have thousands high class servants waiting for a chance to become a Prime.
Courses: 24/10 courses needed for graduation.
Final result: Graduated as a Prime!
Incase you are wondering why this chapter was so short(I prefer to read shorter chapters, which is why I post shorter chapters myself, but this is unusually short), it’s because I decided to separate the grades from the rest so I can easily edit them if I come up with something new.

Grim Beginnings
For most, ghosts and monsters were fantasy. For Tessa Byrne-Reyes, they were a constant in her daily life as a reaper. The legendary gods and creatures of mythology were, to her, historical figures. From a young age, she carried the weight of the world on her shoulders, possessing what she saw as a curse but what her family considered a gift. It was her birthright, to use her abilities to guide the deceased to the afterlife of an eternity in peace or in torment. Her classmates viewed her as "the fainting girl" who would pass out in the middle of a lesson with inexplicable injuries. She experienced each death in the town of Belmont Falls, from the mundane to the gruesome. A gunshot wound in the gut, broken ribs, her heart ceasing to beat for several minutes. No one understood what caused these incidents but over the years, she gained a reputation for being abnormal. While Tessa is the freak of Belmont Falls, Fin Belmont, the charming rebel and son of the richest man in town, is her polar opposite. Knowing each other for years but never saying more than a dozen words between them, one night changes everything, thrusting them into each other's unfamiliar and daunting worlds. Together, with the help of her best friend/his ex-girlfriend Elena, they begin to unravel secrets about their town and their pasts, learning that some secrets are better left buried and grudges can be held for centuries.
