“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

"This is not what I thought it would be," Yve mumbled as they stood outside the scattered village. The small cemented buildings that they now saw from up closer had robots wandering in and out of it.

"Were these the 'people' that we thought we saw from above yesterday?" Mort asked as they saw the robots mechanically working along, proceeding with whatever task that they might have been tasked with.

"Looks like we still haven't been able to leave the territory of the system," Aksel said agreeing to what they all had been doubting.

The machines didn't have the symbol of the system and neither did any of the buildings but it was clear that this land had been under their territory as well.

"What should we do now? Do we go in or do we just stay here?" Aster asked looking at the faceless steel bodies that were walking around with boxes and papers taking it to and from different buildings.
