The protagonist is beautiful and academically gifted, but has always thought of herself as an ordinary person.
On her first day at an elite university, she enters an ABO world without realizing it.
As an outsider, she can't sense the pheromones in the air. She has no idea that all her classmates are high-ranking Alphas and Omegas, or what a terrifying presence she seems to them.
When two top Alphas clash pheromones from a distance, the students around them turn pale. The protagonist, caught between the two, calmly does her homework.
Her classmates watch in awe. "Oh my god, the new student is a total powerhouse! Is her pheromone rank even higher than those two Alphas'?"
The protagonist is merely a little confused. She has no idea why the whole class is so quiet, or why those two weird classmates have been staring at each other for so long.
When the top Omega in her class develops a crush on the protagonist, she approaches her in the hallway, hoping to subtly express her interest with her pheromones.
The protagonist doesn't notice a thing. Though she doesn't understand why her classmate is standing in the middle of the path, she decides to respect her quirk and walks straight past the top Omega without looking at her.
Her classmates take in this scene too. "Oh my god! That was a top Omega making a move! The new student is so aloof. She's so cool, I love her!"
Before long, the protagonist becomes famous at school.
As she faces countless admiring gazes, a faint look of confusion appears in her eyes. "Why does everyone say I'm so amazing? I'm just an ordinary person."
The entire school: "..."
Later, a reporter interviews the students at the school, asking: What's the most ridiculously humble thing you've ever heard?
No matter which student they interview, the answer is always: "The protagonist says she's ordinary."
The protagonist's love interest is a tsundere young lady and student council president. She's exceptionally talented and haughty, and has always been so outstanding that she looks down on everyone.
Until she meets the protagonist. For all her excellence, she's repeatedly thwarted by the protagonist.
Unwilling to accept defeat, she starts secretly watching the protagonist and competing with her. Before she knows it, she falls in love.
But the protagonist is very slow on the uptake. She doesn't realize the young lady is competing with her. She just thinks the young lady looks adorable when she's being arrogant.
P.S. 1. The protagonist is a cool beauty on the outside, but a cute, clueless goofball on the inside.
2. I'll flesh out the blurb later. For now, I'm just putting the premise here.
