1 Chapter 01

In the middle of a forest seemingly isolated from the world, a traditional Japanese house built almost entirely of wood and some other irrelevant materials is seen. The house was surrounded by white walls and within them was a beautiful internal garden with several flowers, two cherry trees and a small artificial lake with small fish, surrounded by some bamboos.

In this same garden, more specifically in the external corridor made of wood that is used to move around the house, you could observe a beautiful scene of a happy family talking among themselves while watching the sunset?

There was a middle aged man with grayish hair, a young woman with black hair who appeared to be around 25 years old, and a small child with black hair who appeared to be in the beginning of her growth, but what was most unusual about this child was that she had some bruises on her body and some gashes strung on her arms and legs.

The young woman was with the child, who is apparently her son, sitting on her lap while the gray-haired man stood beside them staring at the horizon, watching the beautiful scene of the setting sun.

"Alex, never bow your head to anyone and make sure you are strong enough to protect the ones you love and never need to run away from anything and anyone!" spoke the gray-haired man, with a thoughtful expression on his face.

Apparently, this man is quite serious and a bit proud.

"And make sure you never get into any unnecessary fights or be a troublemaker that drives people away from you, and most of all, don't be lazy and be kind to anyone who needs your kindness..." said the young black haired woman with a fond smile on her face.

This young lady possibly likes to work hard and help those who need her help.

"Okay dad, mom!!!" Said the child with determination in her voice.

"Come on, the break is over. Let's get back to training!" Warned the man.

It was at this very moment, a huge white light appeared taking over the entire room and leaving only a totally empty scene in sight.

-----------‐---------------//‐---------------------------

In the kingdom of Britannia, more specifically in a high school, a teenager with black hair and light green eyes could be seen.

At this moment the young man is sleeping lazily on his chair in the classroom. It could clearly be seen that his expression was tired, but his mouth had an almost imperceptible smile.

As his desk is situated near the center of the room and near the window, the sunlight rested heavily on his face, which could barely be covered by his slightly messy hair and his medium-sized bangs.

It may be considered wrong to sleep in the middle of a class, and in the middle of a class at that, but this is already part of the young man's routine and his teachers don't care anymore.

*DIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIING* The lunch bell has just rung.

*grunting

The teenager slowly opens his eyes due to the noise of the bell and quickly put his left hand to his face to cover the strong brightness of the sun as it penetrated his eyes.

'Tsk, that kind of dream again!' thought the boy who had just woken up from his sleep.

The young man had an expression of clear bad mood stamped on his face. Possibly his dream brought back memories that now only annoy him, or he just doesn't enjoy being woken up with a huge light in his face.

*Rooooonc*

Suddenly his stomach rumbled and the boy remembered that he hadn't had breakfast because he had missed it by oversleeping, and he left home late.

'I'd better go eat...'

After making this decision, the student got up from his chair and walked towards the door of the room while keeping his hands in the pockets of his pants.

He pushed the beige colored sliding door aside and continued walking down the long hallway of the college. For some reason, the people around the places he passed by looked in his direction with disdainful and disgusted expressions on their faces, but the young man didn't seem to mind.

The freshman walked slowly and lazily towards the back of the school, a quiet and deserted place where few people go. Because it was a secluded place, usually couples occasionally went there to do the wrong thing, but today that didn't seem to be the case.

Arriving at the place, the boy decided to crouch down while he went through the inside pocket of his gray blazer. After a few seconds he pulled out a small 200ML plastic bag that had some sort of straw-like spout built into the opening. Inside was a red, very thick liquid.

"I have to take advantage that I received this this month, it's not every day that I have access to this blood..." - Putting the beak in his mouth and sucking the blood.

Now why is he drinking blood? Well, he is a vampire, or rather, a hybrid born from the love between a human and a full-blooded vampire.

"At least this week I didn't have to spend money to drink those tomato juices from the cafeteria. Although that's why bad rumors about me were spread too..."

Usually, the young man buys tomato juices from the cafeteria of his special college. A few days ago when he will receive these bags of blood, he for the first time since he entered high school did not buy his usual tomato juice and so some youngsters who were his "Friends" followed him to check if there was anything wrong and eventually saw him drinking his blood bag.

After this event, several bad rumors started to circulate throughout his high school about how he is a monster or disgusting for drinking blood. Because of this, he became more isolated from his class than he was before.

"Well...I don't blame them. If I were in their shoes, I would probably try to stay away from a person that dangerous too..."

The rumors had already circulated throughout the college, even reaching the ears of the principal, but the adults did nothing because they thought it was just a childish prank or that it didn't seem to affect the mentioned student.

And they were apparently right in the second thought as the teenager didn't mind being lonely since his childhood was not normal like most youngsters'.

The young man continued to drink the red liquid for a few more moments until he finally dried the entire plastic packet. After this he immediately got up and made his way walking back to his classroom with his hands in the pockets of his black pants.

As he walked through the halls of the school, he noticed that there was a group of some people deliberately using some strange abilities. The oldest of the group was holding a snowflake in his hands and there was a girl floating near the ground.

"It's amazing how they use their abilities without any worry or mistake when using them..."

And yes, in this world there are powers too, but there are requirements to be able to use them. About 340 years ago, a virus known as covid-19 appeared suddenly, in a completely mysterious way, and spread all over the planet, taking all of humanity and all the beings hiding in the shadows of the world by surprise.

The virus did not spare any race that lived in the world at that time, causing an unprecedented pandemic until then. There were people who could not overcome its complications and ended up dying, others even managed to survive, but with small or large after-effects, and there were those who, for some reason, unknown until today, managed to awaken a new type of energy, known worldwide as Naro energy.

The Naro energy is a physical and spiritual energy, concentrated more specifically in the heart and having a connection with the brain, apparently generated by the virus in the body of certain people. When awakened, Naro activates unique powers in each person, and the method for awakening it by its own will in a body is unknown to this day.

In the case of humans, the power is generated randomly, and in rare cases this power can be passed on to descendants. Most of the other races that live in the shadows of the world have also awakened this energy and obtained powers in the same manner as humans.

Because this Naro energy was randomly awakening powers in people, chaos was slowly spreading around the world, and because of this, the 3 main World powers: The Arsênia Empire to the north, the Kingdom of Britania to the south, and the Sunigame Nation to the west, have formed an alliance to prevent disorder. Because of this, international rules have been set for the entire population to restrict the use of these powers, and the only times they can be used freely are in special schools prepared for this, or in cases of extreme emergency, or as a policeman / special agent.

Returning to the moment before the introduction to the mysteries of the world, the other teenagers, apparently high school seniors or juniors, are using their abilities without caring about possible adverse reactions, because as had been mentioned earlier, this is a special school to help young people master their powers.

Ignoring whatever that group was doing, the young man continued walking towards his place of study. On the way, several other students could be observed walking back to their respective classrooms and some were even using their powers to avoid being late.

Arriving at the beige door, now completely open, the young man is faced with the same scene he saw a few seconds ago, but with something else involved.

Another teenager was walking towards the young man with black hair, this teenager has red hair and a disdainful expression on his face. Most likely he is a delinquent or someone who abuses others because he thinks he is stronger.

"Look who we have here? The high school freak with the weakest power of all" Mocked the red-haired boy.

'Tch, what's wrong with this guy? Ever since the rumors started, he's been trying to get me in trouble! They say that men are acting more and more that way because they have a small dick and want to somehow feel superior, is that his situation by any chance?' thought the black-haired student.

"'Don't fill it up' spoke the young man with an annoyed tone as he tried to dodge the red-haired boy.

But his attempt was unsuccessful as the red-haired man put his hand in front of him and completely blocked his path, but apparently, he didn't like that the young man had retorted. The redhead put his hands on the young man's collars and lifted him up while he had a bored expression on his face.

'This guy has mental problems, huh? Go stick it to another fucking guy' thought the black-haired young man as he took his hands out of his pockets.

"'Or else what are you going to do? Hit me with your fucking umbrellas? "asked the red-haired teenager with a threatening tone.

Suddenly whispers were heard.

"That's right, he can only summon tiny little shadows..."

"I think those little shadows were so weak that they couldn't even walk properly"

"I even heard that he was almost kicked out of school for having such weak power"

Since the population that actually acquired unique powers is not high, and there are not many specialized schools made to help these young people who have the Naro energy to help them control and develop their powers, then it is not necessarily a lie that if your power is too weak you risk being expelled to make room for others.

"What am I going to do? At the moment nothing, but please answer me. Do you have mental problems or do you have such a small penis that you want to appear superior to others to lessen your shame?" Asked the black-haired young man with a mocking tone.

*Squeals* *Squeals*

"Your shi-"

"CLASS IS ABOUT TO BEGIN! RETURN TO YOUR PLACES!!!" shouted the English teacher as he entered the room.

The man had a bulky, muscular body, a serious face, wore camouflage pants and a white regatta shirt. Apparently, this man had served in the army, but until now everyone is wondering why he teaches English instead of PE.

"Tsk, consider yourself lucky brat. I will beat you on the way out!!! Prepare your body to receive the biggest beating of your life!!!" Said the red-headed teenager as he let go of the young man and walked away because he was afraid of being reprimanded by the brute teacher.

'Do you really think I'm going to wait for you to beat me up? Is this kid stupid too?' thought the young man as he yawned because he was sleepy.

Then the young man tidied his collars, put his hands in his pockets again, and walked to his chair now that his passage had been cleared. Halfway to his desk he looked in the teacher's direction, took one hand out of his pocket, and pointed his thumb up in approval.

The teacher was confused for a moment, but chose to ignore the lazy young man's action and decided to start his class.

-----------‐---------------//‐---------------------------

*DIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIING* The signal ending school hours for the students rang out.

Immediately at that moment, the red-haired teenager who had been holding back his anger since that instant stood up to go towards the black-haired young man. The red-haired boy had never suffered such humiliation and annoyance in his entire life, as his parents had spoiled him greatly because of his unique power to manipulate the direction and intensity of the wind. It may seem like a power that doesn't do much damage, but depending on how it is used it can generate even a strong storm.

The red-haired boy got up completely from his chair and walked towards his target. The young man with black hair and light green eyes had an extremely calm expression and looked as if he was about to sleep at any moment, but this only served to irritate the red-haired boy even more.

He walked more hastily while keeping his immense anger stamped on his face. The red-haired man had finally reached his goal.

"You trashy brat!!! Now get ready to get beaten up in front of everyone!!!" Spoke the red-haired teenager as he moved his closed fist towards the young man's face, but at the moment of contact of the punch with his target's face...

*BANG*

The black-haired young man exploded like a balloon, releasing a cloud of black smoke that covered only the spot near his stand. After a few seconds the curtain of black cloud dispersed, revealing a completely confused red-haired boy covered in black ink from head to toe.

!!!

After realizing what had actually happened, the red-haired boy exploded with rage and along with that shouted, "THAT MEEEERDA!!!!"

While this scene was taking place outside the school...

"Looks like that autistic guy finally fell for my trick...Now I feel a little guilty for making fun of someone with mental problems..., but he was the one who started looking for a fight with me so he deserved it!"

And so the young man continued walking to his home, where his 'parents' would be waiting for him.

There is not much to say about the streets, they were simply a lane in the middle and houses around it. Since his school is located in a neighborhood that is considered prime, then you might notice a few mansions here and there around the lane.

His house is not in the same neighborhood as the school, but it is not so far away. You could say that it is about a 40 minute walk or sometimes even less depending on the mood of the young man, but as he is always lazy so usually his steps are not fast.

The green-eyed young man kept walking in a straight line, sometimes making a few turns, until he had finally reached his destination.

His house was neither large nor small, you could say that it was enough for a family to live comfortably for several and several years. The house was surrounded by a medium-sized wall with a black railing the same size as the wall, but there were details like spearheads around the top of the railing, probably as decoration.

The building may not have such good security, but the neighborhood where it is located is close to another prime neighborhood, so it is relatively safer as there are always police officers surrounding the area or even surveillance cameras on almost every lamppost, so very few people would risk so much for a very average house.

The young man unlocked the grate and walked towards a door, which is in fact the entrance to the house, made of wood. As he turned the knob, he found a small corridor leading to the living room.

He kept walking until he reached the living room and came across two other people, more specifically a middle aged man with black hair with some white strands, wearing glasses under a relaxed and cheerful face, along with a woman almost the same age with slightly red hair and a gentle smile on her face.

"Welcome back Alex" spoke the woman.

"I'm home auntie"

Yes, they are not his real parents and they are not his real uncles either. Apparently, they are people who are responsible for him as his guardians and take care of him.

Tired from the long day he had and very lazy, Alex was heading to his room to have a good nap when suddenly he was called by his 'uncle'.

"Wait Alex, an envelope addressed to you arrived this afternoon. You had better read it when you are in your room" spoke the uncle as he handed a black envelope with gold details into young Alex's hands.

'Hmmm... that's strange, I don't remember ordering anything or anything like that and my parents haven't communicated with me for over two years now...'

With the envelope in hand, Alex made his way to a white door with a sign hanging on it saying {do not enter}. Turning the knob, he entered his room? The place was a complete mess with clothes and various other things scattered around.

Here is one of the evils of being lazy...'

Making his way towards what should be his bed, Alex threw his bag somewhere in the pile of scattered things and sat down on the bed with the envelope in hand. Opening it easily, he found a circular silver object with a camera in the middle and on the side, there was a red button with the white word 'ON' written across it.

When he clicked the button, a semi-transparent blue screen appeared above the object and in it was contained a message.

" The Neox organization is pleased to invite Mr. Alex Walker to participate in our selection exam to become a special agent. "
