Chapter 1 - The forgotten memory

It was the year 2035 , a young man who looked 16 was doing some workouts in his packed room that seemed old , the boy was gritting his teeth's while his body was sweeting buckets as he pushed up and down on the floor.

289,290, 291.... He was mumbling the counting as he worked his body . He seemed to be trying to take his frustration out of his body by working out.

300 he calmly said with a somewhat bloody eyes not from the workout but from his anger,he calmly stood up and cleaned himself with a towel before dressing his upper body with a black shirt he had on the table. He took a water bottle and opened the old wooden handle, as he was about-to go outside he suddenly heard an angry scream from behind.

WAIT! He stopped abruptly and slowly turned his head back to a young girl with an apron and a kitchen knife glaring at him with her red eyes at him.

Didn't you forget something? She said while glaring at him.

He turned his gaze at the table to see some cooked foods on it.

Ohh, he suddenly remembered.

You can eat it i am not hungry right now. He said with no change on his tone.

What??? She said with confusion Today is your 16th birthday and you are not even going to celebrate it? I had made it with fresh meat do you know how expensive they are. She said with a confused look and somewhat angry twitching in her face.

I would have celebrated it if I actually evolved to a superhuman. He said with a stoic face but somewhat kinder eyes.

I will eat it later he said as he slammed the door on her .

She was in disbelief as she facepalmed herself. This kid she mumbled since when did he start to disobey me.

Ughh she grunted.

She started to cover the foods as she waited on the table .

You better come home fast "VELRIC" she said with a twinge of anger.

velric stepped outside to a bustling city that seemed kind of destroyed as he started jogging towards the outside wall.

As he was jogging trying to clear his mind he couldn't help but reminisce about the past the world that was 10 years ago, and the unfortunate events that happened after wards.

Although for some reasons his memories were as if deleted he couldn't remember much about his past except for the time he lost his mother in his hand when he couldn't carry her injured body to safety .

He suddenly started to sprint through the roads as he remembered his mother lifeless body, he couldn't hold his sadness for long as he ran through the whole city to the huge wall ahead of him.

As soon as he found a huge 10 meters wall infront of him he looked around to see if someone was nearby and after that he started to climb the wall which had marks of his hands and feet .

He soon reached the top of it to look outside and all he saw was a wasteland, a land with nothing but blood covered all over it.

He didn't come here to see the blood but to look at the far distance , the forest of monsters.

It has already been 10 years huh,he said with sadness in his voice .

Ten years he counted on his finger.

But I promise you mother he suddenly had strong gaze.

He raised his hands towards the forest, i will be stronger he said with a determined eyes.

strong enough to protect my big sis and.. he said while clenching his fist.

And strong enough to finally kill the monster that killed you.

His red puple gleamed with light as he looked the sunset towards the forest.

He suddenly fell down on the floor with exhaustion.

Well first i have to do something about this weak body.

He said while laying down.

He was looking up at the sky as he remembered what had happened this morning and why he was so frustrated the whole day.

He had gone to the school of evolutionary although only a branch, for years this school had produced hundreds if not thousands of new evolutionary's every year and many were even luck to unlock the second stage evolution from this school.

He had the same hope as everyone to unlock a good evolution.

In the morning as every students was getting their evolution through the green looking asteroid he was waiting for his turn.

Student numbers 39 has awakened a "C " tier evolution.

Woah a "C" tier valric thought on his mind.

He is a lucky one valric thought while waiting in line.

I heard getting a "C" tier evolution had a chance of happening to only one out of a thousand.

Well there are close to a thousand students here so i guess that's possible.

I hope i get a strong evolution he thought while waiting.

Student 120 "f" tier

Student 230 "f" tier

Student 280 "E" tier

Student 310 "D" tier

Damn it's really hard to get a good tier evolution velric thought on his mind.

I have only seen d tier come only three times this whole time what is going on.

He suddenly looked around and saw a bill board up top.

Chances of evolution tiers

1."F " tier 9 out of 10 evolution chance

2."E" tier 1 out of 10 evolution chance

3."D" tier 1 out of 100 evolution chance

4."C" tier 1 out of 1000 evolution chance

5...

6...

7..

..

Ohh that makes alot of sense well I guess having no friends means i also don't have people i can gain information from.velric thought while looking up.

Well it's almost my turn so I should get ready i hope i get a good evolution he said while he was waiting.

Student 423 come forward.

I heard my student number as i immediately sprinted a little towards the the teachers.

Some gaurds were keeping there eyes on me so that I don't steal or something, but I didn't really care about them and only looked at the green shining rock infront of me.

The male teacher looked at me with strict eyes as he told me to put my evolution stone and wait for it to change into a new color.

I simply nodded back as i put my hand on the rough rock and waited.

The never changed its colour.

the teachers were a bit shocked as their eyes were wide open.

There has never been a time where the evolution stone hadn't changed its colour when on human contact.

Each colour change signifies what tier of evolution you will get but for the first time in 10 years the evolution stone failed to change colour.

The teacher had to make sure the evolution stones wasn't broken so he called some other students.

Student 421 "E" teir evolution.

Yes, The student was scremed happy he got an above average tier.

The teacher was at a loss as he looked at me with a little pity.

Kid do you wanna try again?

YES! I screamed with eyes of hope.

I tried again.

I tried again.

Again and again and again.

But each try failed.

I had been here for half an hour trying again and again to change the evolution stones colur but i had failed.

The teacher finally stopped me as he looked at me with a hint of sadness.

You should stop kid maybe evolution is just not meant for you. Maybe you are given a different task by god.

My eyes were full of dread as I couldn't accept the fact the fact that i was unable to gain an evolution.

I had been trying for half an hour to no avail.

I wanted to try again but i knew the teacher is saying it fot my sake.

Although the boy was only 16 he had alot more maturity because of his upbringing.

He didn't whine here and complain about the evolution stones but simply left .

Huff, he sighed deeply as he kept looking at the darkening sky.

Well it's almost time to return home, I can't stay here for long i might get caught by the patrol gaurds.

He looked at the sunset one last time before he stood up and dusted off the sand and dirt ,well its time to go , she might be waiting for me.

he remembered his big sis that had raised him even though she was only a year older than him.

She is definitely waiting for me. He said while looking down.

He looked back to the forest before jumping down the wall as he rushed back home with his belongings .

He lived in the outskirts of the city so he reached his place in no time while running.

I'm home he said while opening the door as he opened his shoes.

And went inside to see his sister sleeping on the table.

He than slowly creeped up to her and flinged his finger at her forehead.

Click

OWW, she suddenly woke up in a panic as she covered her forehead.

You son of a ... she stopped midway realizing she was about to swear at both of them.

You rascal she screamed as she lunged at him and grabbed him by the neck in a deadlock.

Opp I give up i said as I tried to open her deadlock.

You rascal who do you think your sister is huh ?trying to flick me.

Do you think you will survive after that .

I am sorry ,I muffled through the chokehold.

Humm, she scoffed after letting me go .

be great full i am such a great sister. She said proudly.

She had already noticed my mood had changed just by my actions.

Yah yah ,I said while huffing for breath.

Also here a letter has came for you.

She handed me a white letter.

What? I was confused as to why I would get a letter.

I read the letter to realize it was an academy invitation to the center of the city.

What me ? Why? I was confused.

Shouldn't only D tier or higher tier students be allowed in they academy why are they inviting me? I was in a disarray.

Probably because of your unique case. There isn't a single 16 year old that has tried the evolution stone and not get it. She said while looking at me.

They probably want to see and cheque first hand if it is true.

I looked at the invitation letter and realized something , academy students have a-lot of benefits including money and housing. And right now if I accept it we will be able to get out of this slum .

And the main benefit of it, i will have a chance to travel outside the city as long as I get the academy badge although it will cost money , in the future i will have to travel to my old hometown and search for the monsters killed my mother.

I gripped the letter a little harder as I looked at my sister.

She immediately understood what i was thinking as she smiled and nodded with approval.

Well first we she eat she said while grabbing my hair and making me sit on the table.

Okay okay I agreed knowing well this might be our last meal at this old shack.
