Excerpt:
“An intruder has been detected.”
Was it talking about me? 
“The Branding System rejects this specimen for branding. The Subject must be eradicated.” The automated voice spoke again.  
What?
Panic rose within Aksel at once, he didn’t understand what was happening to him but he knew that in a few seconds he was going to be killed.
But why?
******
It was the year 3022 and Earth had gone through a series of changes reaching new technological and metaphysical heights. Humans had generated into a superior level of beings where they were now classified into three categories based on their body structure and strength when they came upon the age of twenty. 
This could be achieved by a process called The Branding System which branded the humans under one of the three categories of Contrivos, Exters or Debilis making their body undergo a set of transformations respectively.
The world has lost its sense of equality and power is all that can help you survive and live a good life but when Aksel Bruwes is rejected by the system and remains unbranded, his life turns over completely.
How is he going to stay alive in this world where everyone is stronger than him and what is he going to do when he learns about the hideous truths about the System? 
Not to forget that the said System is after his life.

DISCLAIMER: This is not the usual “SYSTEM” novels that you read where a MC is provided with a SYSTEM that trains him to make him overpowered by levelling up. Here, SYSTEM means an organized scheme or method.

The Branding System

The trek wasn't as easy as they had wished for and the birds refused to move even after the night fell.

Looking back over the field of salt and the surrounding dunes of sand from the slight elevation that they had so far covered Aksel could only wish for them to find any amount of water even if it's only a little to suffice the bird's need.

Only then can they fly out of this wretched place.

"Do you think there can be weird animals here?" Yve asked looking around as she climbed another small boulder to rise up to the next level.

"Might be?" Aksel said climbing onto the next boulder helping her to take her next step up.

That was a possibility but a hard one for in this heat it was shard to believe that they would be able to find anything at all.
