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

It was truly an incredible power Yve thought but she didn't like the word that came along with its explanation. Why was she a 'prey'? What did it mean to Aksel to have her held as a prey?

She couldn't make sense and Aksel didn't seem in his right senses to respond.

"Aksel, if you have finished testing your powers can you please let me go?" Yve asked unable to understand if that was the right thing to say to the transformed Aksel in front of her. There was something eerie about the way he had been looking at her.

It was almost as if he had been stripped off his emotions and left a blank slate to start over with.

Could he have really lost his memories?

Her words had asked him to free her but instead Aksel took a step forward and continued to blankly stare at her.

"I don't have a nice feeling bout this," Aster said looking at Renee hoping for her to intervene but Neo shook his head and said, "I want to see what he is thinking."
