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

Outside in the heat the three of them rolled the drum to the salt field absolutely hating having to do this manual labor. Even then with half a heart they decided to get to work not wanting to put Yve into any problem who was sitting inside with the Exter.

This particular Exter didn't look very strong to any of them and if truth be told they wanted to risk it and bash its skull inside but if this foolish Exter could provide them with an insight of this particular city then maybe they could broaden their knowledge of the System and its limits.

Bending down to shovel the salt into drum Aksel therefore began his work. He had certain hopes from this city for if they sent out salt to all the other cities and maybe even internationally then they would be able to determine the borders of the Branding cities making it easy for them to establish their points and go past them in search of help.
