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

"I am not sure if he would still be in Austellus," Mort said as they neared the city that they had been dreading. This was the last place that they had seen Neo and if he was still around here and just as vexed as he had been before then this might be the last place that they visited.

"Don't tell me you are nervous," Renee scoffed giving him a smirk that was clearly mocking him; "If we can kill the others then we can defeat him as well. I guess it would have been better if Aksel would have let me take Isaac's power instead of you."

That stung more that Mort wanted it to. He wasn't questioning his skills but he couldn't help but be genuinely worried for Aksel and his safety. There was something wrong with Neo, unlike the others he seemed to be more intelligent and aware of the circumstances. Also an abnormal person who desires to live a normal life was scarier than a person who had nothing to hide.
