The 125th Hunger Games are just around the corner, and Lacie Greenly, a 16-year-old child genius from District 4, doesn't know her life is about to change forever.
That makes it seem like she's the main character, right? Wrong.
Every year, the Capitol makes it seem like there's only one perspective to the Games - that of the Victor - but that's far from the truth. This year, 36 tributes will enter the Arena, and each one has a different perspective of the Games.
Of all the competitors from across Panem, who will be crowned the Victor? Will Lacie overcome the other competitors? How about Soren, the brother of last year's Victor? What will Carlo and Seffie, two District 5 teens on the verge of love, do when they are Reaped together?
36 tributes will enter the Arena in one week. Some will fall in love, some will be betrayed by those closest to them, and in the end, all but one will die.
Kanda Kyoichi transmigrated to Konoha and became a temporary instructor at the Ninja Academy. Fortunately, he awakened the Mentor System.

Thus began Kyoichi's career as a "teacher" in the ninja world.
Shisui: "Sensei's unique interpretation of the Will of Fire has given the Uchiha Clan a true sense of direction!"
Asuma: "The essence of the jade lies in protecting the people, with the advanced leading the way for the less experienced. Only then can Konoha become stronger!"
Kakashi: "He's my life mentor. He transformed Konoha!"
...
Years later, in the memoirs of Kyoichi, now the Hokage, he wrote:
"I honestly just wanted to be a life mentor!"
