Chapter 1 - The Age of Espers

Over 200 years ago, before the 19th century, the five senses; hearing, smell, taste, touch and vision were known by scientists as the only ways by which humans perceived and 

responded to their environment.

However, there is a 6th sense also known as Extrasensory Perception (ESP). ESP is a science fictional theory which gives 

humans the ability to perceive and respond to their surroundings without using any of the five physical senses, it is defined as having a keen intuitive power. 

In year 1830, a psychologist couple from a university in Durham, United States, brought up the theory of humans having the 6th sense and they tried proving it by using Zener 

cards in their experiments but their theory was rejected by the science world because of their lack of evidence.

Although, The Extra Sensory Perception (ESP) concept was known to be fictional by scientists of that era, there were few

humans who existed at that time who had awakened their sixth sense either through; a rare mutation in their genes, escaping their earthly tether by achieving a high level of 

spirituality in relation to some religious beliefs of those period, meditation, Prāņāyāma, Trāțaka or by becoming one with nature.

After awakening their 6th sense, these group of people had either the ability to predict the future through dreams and 

visions, float in air, manipulate a kind of natural element, bend little metallic objects with their minds, speak to animals 

and understand them or even possessed hyper-human reflexes.

When a scientist found out about this rare humans who awakened their 6th sense in 1880, 50 years after the 1st theory was rejected, he assembled a group scientists and restarted the research on the human sixth sense (ESP) and they found out that we humans do have a 6th sense in our genes but we have to awaken it to be able to feel our 

surroundings with our minds.

In year 1917, after the theory of the 6th sense was proven present in our genes got wide spread in the world of science.A group of scientists in a lab in China started an experiment which would awaken all of human's sixth sense and in their 1st test the lab exploded.

However, An anomaly happened after the explosion only the lab and the district were destroyed by the blast the after math of the explosion spread all over the world like a virus killing 62.5% of the world's population.

The 37.5% of the human population who survived the radiation from the blast, which became known as 'The Big Blast', genes evolved and they were able to awaken their sixth sense, and that was the beginning of a new age in humanity's history, 'The Age of Espers'.

Children between the ages of 12-18 that survived 'The Big Blast' began unlocking kinetic abilities. A kinetic ability or kinesis is the ability that makes a human able to manipulate various elements and objects using their minds , and it can only be unlocked when one awakens their Extra Sensory Perception (ESP) or 6th sense.

As for the adults who survived 'The Big Blast' , most were not able to unlock a kinetic ability since they already passed the stage of 

puberty.

The genetic evolution caused by the radiation of the Big Blast, took humanity back to its former glory, which was achievable 

due to the advanced impact it made to humans performance even though most didn't unlock a kinetic ability.

As time moved on and humans with kinetic abilities began increasing at a fast rate, most humans didn't have powerful kinetic abilities and most of those who had powerful abilities 

and were able to perfect their control of their kinetic ability began oppressing others and some went to a life of crime, which lead to the creation of the Assassins, the most elite 

special force in the universe.

The creation of the Assassins Organization was done by Al-Arrat Ismail, a man with 'Sturma'.

Sturma is the ability to manipulate the four natural classical elements; air, earth, fire and water. He fought against these people who used their ability to oppress others and ended the "1st World Esper War". Al—Arrat Ismail created the Assassin Organization (AO) so as to 

make people who are willing to fight for the freedom and justice of humanity to become powerful kinetic ability users through rigorous training and these people after graduating an assassin academy will be known as Pro-Assassins.

He became known as 'The legendary assassin: The Founder'.
