Prologue

The 8-years old young boy wakes up in the middle of a wasteland, he searched around here and there and walked towards the nearby town, he entered the town, it was quite no one was around, only sound he heard was crows cawing, he looks here and there he saw a man sitting under the tree, he goes near him and says "Excuse me sir… excuse me sir" the man didn't respond, the boy grabs his shoulder, " Excuse me do you know what is this place" Boy said.

The man falls down, he was dead, half of his face was completely eaten by larvae, the boy got scared and run as fast as he can.

Unexpectedly he stumbles across the Fourways central of the town, His eyes were wide open by the gruesome sight he just stumbles, all the vehicles crash into each other's filled with deads, everyone on the footpath, inside the buildings or house, everywhere he sees, he founds nothing except corpses as if the God of death visit them all at the same time.

Chapter- 1

In this universe, everyone is born with a tag on them which determines almost everything, their status in the society, their way of life, their fate, tags divided into 4 categories C, B, A, S. People with lower tags cannot attempt any act to harm the higher Tag, and even if they want to attempt such an act they need the approval of someone with an equal or higher tag than their adversary, if not then the unimaginable pain worse than death runs throughout their head. Which creates an absolute system for the higher tags to dominate those with a lower tag, this is the Age known as The Dark-Age.

Somewhere In the Planet Immar under the dark night sky, there a facility just outside the city surrounded by an electric barbed wire fence and plasma barrier in which electric approx 300 Megavolt run 24/7, filled with Guards who keep the watch day and night with large guns in their hands, No one can infiltrate or rather escape from here, this is the fatality to hold captive the valuable slaves.

And In this facility A Nobleman is making a deal today with a slave trader, to buy a new slave for his amusement.

"So where is it?" A Fat Noble Man with a cane in his hand and a B-tag print in his right hand Said, with a curious voice.

"Why are you so worried sir, we promise we will give it to you. This way please sir," The slave-dealer said assuring him showing him the way.

They enter the big observing room with lots of monitors technical equipment, and a big black glass window was on the front wall probably to observe whoever was on the other side it was dark no lights were open so we don't know who.

"Open the lights," The slave-dealer said to the man in the monitors.

The light opens.

A young boy, 10 or 9-year-old locked in a white room. he has a long black hair, pale white skin, red eyes with cold and sad looks in it continuously staring down. C shape tag in his Left hand with S18A1L22T5A14 series code written on it, wearing the dirty beggar cloth sitting beside the wall with his head between his legs.

"So this is it, this is the kid, huh," A Noble Man Asked the slave-dealer with a creepy smile out of excitement.

"Yes, sir this is the kid, The one and only survivor of planet Alpha," The slave-dealer said.

"Alpha!, you mean that Alpha," A Nobleman said with surprise expiration and drop the cane out of surprise.

The slave-dealer rubs his hand with an evil smirk "Yes sir, by Alpha, we meant that same Alpha, where every single living thing dies in a single night two years ago, Cause of Death is still unknown Empire sent some troops to investigate, but we were the ones who get there first and guess what we found there," he said.

"Is that kid, the one and only survivor of Planet Alpha" The Slave dealer Shouts out with open arms, his voice echo throughout the room.

After hearing the Slave dealer the curiosity to know what happened in Alpha awake inside the nobleman, he strode near the observing window and looks into the boy's Deep red eyes.

"Hmm… red-eye, he's a cursed child do you think he killed them?" A Nobleman asked out of curiosity.

"What…?" The slave-dealer looks at him with an open mouth then suddenly both of them start laughing "Hahaha," Like he just cracks a nice joke.

"How can a kid destroy the entire planet in one night haha," The slave-dealer said laughing holding his stomach.

Suddenly he takes a deep breath from his mouth and released it like shuu "And besides they weren't killed, there were no injuries on their bodies nor any signs of struggle, it was as if the entire planet dies a natural death at the same time," The slave-dealer said with a serious face.

"What?" A nobleman was shocked he didn't believe his ears "How is it even possible?" A Nobleman asked.

The slave-dealer turn's towards the window and stares at the boy "That the mystery only God knows about," he said, "and the Dead's of course," he said as a joke.

"Perhaps the kid knows, but he doesn't talks I tried to ask him but he simply refused, saying that everyone was already dead when he woke's up," he thought.

"But he has red eyes that mean he is a killer, A boy with the cursed blood," A Nobleman said looking into the boy's deep red eyes stroking his chin.

"And that's what makes him so valuable, He will be a good Asset If you trained him properly," The slave-dealer said shaking his head as a gesture of definitely.

"Hmm… That's all good and all but I can't decide until I see it for myself" A Nobleman said.

"Indeed I couldn't agree more," The slave-dealer agrees and raised his right hand "Open Gate No. 13" he shouts.

The man on the monitors miss heard what gate Number he said "What Gate No. 30, are you sure about that? Whatever just do the job," Man in the control room thought and opens Gate No. 30

The door inside the white room opens, Big tiger-like beast at least 3-meters tall with dark skin walked in through the door, the combat knife fell from the roof in front of the boy, he gazes at the beast and picked up the knife.

Meanwhile, the slave-dealer was surprised watching that beast coming out through the gate, "Wh..wh..what the hell! who the hell open gate number thirty!. Do you want to kill the merchandise!" he yelled out pulling his hairs.

"Boss ain't you the one who told us to open the gate number thirty" Man on the monitors said to the slave-dealer.

The slave-dealer strolls aggressively pulls him up from a chair grabbing his collar "You stupid mother fucker bastard I told you to open gate number thirteen! thirteen! Not thirty, that's the gate of 2 tier Abby's beast! Even Alters have difficulty dealing with that thing!" He yelled over him.

He relished him and grab his head out of stress "My merchandise, my precious merchandise" he mutters.

Right then the Noble says "Hey, you should see this," telling him to the lookout.

The slave-dealer strode near the nobleman rubbing his hands in order to buttered him "I am sorry sir look like there are some technical issuesssss…" As he looks out he lost his words to what he about to say by the sudden shock.

And His eyes were wide opened, "Am I hallucinating, kid! He's, he's rivaling him, this small child is rivaling the 2 tier Abby's beast!" he thought, witnessing the boy standing up challenging the beast.

The beast attacked the boy with his claw, the boy quickly dodge slides under his belly and slash with a knife, the beast's skin was too thick the simple knife couldn't slice through and bounced off.

"Not good, his skin is too hard for the simple knife to cut through, even if the kid manages to match him with speed and land the hit, At the end of the day, he is still a 10-year-old kid, and he's the 2 tier Abby's beast," Slave Dealer thought.

"Quickly sends some guards to protect the merchandise! no matter what that merchandise is more valuable than your fucking life" The slave-dealer giver's order yelling out to the man on the monitors.

Beasts turn around and charge to attack the boy, Boy stands still holding the knife with cold looks in his eyes.

"What he's doing did he wish to die or did he get scared and unable to move," the slave-dealer thought.

"Why haven't the guards arrived yet!" He yelled at the man on the monitors.

"They're in their way, Boss," the man on the monitors said.

"So tell them to fucking hurry up you bastard If anything happened to my merchandise, I am going to cut the damage fees from all of their salaries" The slave-dealer yells out again.

The Beast jumps to eat the boy with his mouth, the boy quickly jumps inside his mouth and stabs inside his mouth, Beast screams "KAYAAAA!" start shaking his head in order to make's boy fall out.

Boy falls out leaving his knife stuck inside the best mouth, beast seized this opportunity and rush to attack the boy.

The boy has no weapons in hand Beast is rushing to kill him, he realizes this it's it for him and gets prepaid to die by dropping his guard, suddenly became slow he didn't get what happened but he realizes the beast is not the one who is slow in truth he's the one seeing the entire world in slow motion.

He feels some mysterious strength surging in his body to his arms, he didn't waste time too much thinking about it and immediately Jumped inside the beast's mouth pulled out the knife.

he can feel the mysterious strength that surging his body is start covering the knife he slashes his lower jaw inside his mouth and slices it down like butter

The beast screams out of pain boy quickly jumps down and slashes off his right leg beast falls down on the ground taking his last breath.

The boy goes near the beast and puts his hand on Beast's neck and pad him looking into his eyes, the beast looks back at him like they can understand each other "In this world, only strong can survive" Boy said, and stab his neck.

The beast dies.

The slave-dealer was startled and astonished by the boy "That Boy, did he just use the Urja, he's an Alter, haha" He thought no that he starts admiring the only thing he saw was an increase in boy's value.

"He is even more amazing than I thought, with this, his value increased 10 times from before haha," He thought.

Suddenly the guards came barging into the room.

The boy stands up and glares at the observing window.

"what he's doing now did he...Oh No!" The slave-dealer thought,

"Capture him immediately!" The slave-dealer shouts out to the window.

The Boy goes straight away and attacks the guards, he jumps on the sidewall for bounce and stabs 1st Guards skull, in a blink boy bounce off towards the others Guards stab his eye, quickly jump toward the other guard slit his throat then to the other and slay all of them and break out of the room.
