Hmm .... this was what you could call a sci-fi civilization but with a bit of the kingdom styles ...
Yes .. I know right ... you're thinking about flying boats with thrusters and laser guns ... yeah .. those things were here ..
this was a bit of a mix up .. the citizens ... well lived the most perfected lives .. or so I could say ...
everyday was like every other day ... the people go shopping .. playing pool ... going to schools ...
yes all of that .. but here's something to blow up your mind ... these schools these shops .. these taverns weren't the usual taverns ...schools nor shops ....
when a citizen goes shopping they would either buy technological artifacts' that would improve our brains ...
of course you thought that this was a violent world ... yes it is but it isn't like the ones mentioned in the novels ..
every now and then there would be a scuffle between two kingdoms .. and honestly from my point of view I've been getting tired with their way of living ...
I mean ... these citizens .. city lords ... powerful merchants ... kings ... emperors ... Lords of many dynasties ... would often do the same thing that happened a long time ago ...
for example just last week after my warrior uncle visited home .. he came back from a war against one of our sworn nemesis ... The Lexus Kingdom ...
one of the most advanced kingdoms in the top five ...
these people didn't even need materials to build up a laser blaster ... just by thinking clearly on an AK-47 Mark 3 .. it would just appear ... this was Nano technology ...
and these guys usually got into a scuffle with our kingdom because we had a way much better ability than them .. an ability to be proficient in out today's science ...
nothing in the future could cause us problems .. with just a thought we produce multiple and awesome ideas ...
the Lexus Kingdom would say that it's a cheat ability and we got it illegally from somewhere ..
I mean my great great great great great great great grandfather was born with an amazing ability to see beyond the stars ... although it was considered useless ... from a better perspective you would realise that we could avoid so much problems altogether ...
and from generation to generation our gens mutated and here we're having our own abilities ..
these so-called abilities granted a person the privilege to join the Major Council .. or the High Court ... these two powerhouses were incredibly powerful ...
and I know you're wondering .. 'What if you didn't have an ability ?? ' right ..
well here's the catch ... if a person in our world didn't have an ability they would still live a normal life like all of us .. but .. they wouldn't get any attention from the Major Council or any other powerhouse ...
to you it might sound good .. but to some people .. well .. we usually referred to those kinds of things as "curses" .. since it was very rare for one of us to not have an ability ...
and let me tell you something .. there's a genius that's born every 10 years ... in a trillion ...
yes ... we even exceed the trillion threshold ..
this year we were currently numbered .. as 1 trillion and 6 billion ...
that is our current world population ..
and the birth rates are way too low ... life expectancy rates .. really high ... death rates ... we've encountered none ..
I know right .. it sounds ridiculous ..
a war in our world was sort of like chess .. we don't fight with fists and weapons that's way too violent ...
guns and lethal weapons were only used on a celebration day or on a special occassion ...
we fought differently ... like showing our unique talents .. to the other kingdoms .. and we've never considered fighting really violently .. infact we have never even fought violently ...
wait .. there was this time when a city lord directly punched a king in a far away world for saying that his ability was weak ... and he was locked in a 'prison' ....
and funny enough .. this 'prison' wasn't that scary .. it was actually quite fun .. it was like going to a park and enjoying your joy ride ...
playing around like a little kid ... inventing new ideas .. yeah hey .. this world was indeed weird and we needed to grow up and evolve ...
but *sigh* after the years went we still haven't found a way to evolve ... we only got geeky and nerdy ...
and here nerds and lectures were the norm ...
seeing a bulky person was really weird ... so they thought ...
oh and our race is called the Modig race .. pretty cool right ..
and oh .. I know what you're going to ask me ..
I don't know what it means ...however our history tells us that the ancestor .. the presumed founder of our world ventured into a planet with a race similar to us .. but with uhm a slighter underdeveloped brains ...
and it also states that mm he tried helping them to evolve into a much more better and civilised planet .. however after many tries he figured out that that race needed a prayer ...
hahahahaha ... and what was most boring and shocking about the race was that they didn't even have any abilities ..
and from that planet he learnt a language from one of the individuals of that race .. and then decided to call this world the Modig planet .. the planet of the Modig race ...
we never understood the meaning not the origin behind the whole thing so the investigations and researches died down earlier in year 2004 ...
I was so brokenhearted that I wanted to beat up those so-called scientists ..
but when I thought clearly about it .. I looked in the mirror and said .. "This is an unwavering opportunity .." .. If I could get the entire information .. about the founder .. and the origin of our race and also the race that doesn't have any intelligence .. I could become the most respected person in the whole world ...
hehe ... I couldn't let go of this chance ..
but when I tried to reopen and restart the research .. my family and everyone in the whole world beckoned me to not become stupid as this was an 'illness' from the outer void ...
and true that .. I never went back on the research .. however there was this feeling inside of me that always told me that I needed to find out about this ..
my determination was unwavering ... I was like a mountain amongst strong winds .. and terrifying lightning ...
and also again .. I was afraid of getting stupid .. this illness was said to be somewhat contagious and very very harmful to one's brain ..
and with that .. I could only imagine myself not knowing what my name was ...
after organising my thoughts I finally let this thing down and never continued with running after it ...
and this year I turned 15 ... I've grown a little taller .. shoulders broad ... a little moustache showing up there .. I see that ..
my curly jet black hair with a length reaching my shoulders ..
those majestic light brown eyes that looked back at me inside the mirror ..
Mmmmm ... that was me .. I was so handsome ... and not only that .. I was that genius that was born every ten years ...
yeah I know right .. you're very impressed ... hahahaha .. you flatter me ..
but I'm not kidding though .. I am that genius ... when I was 5 years old .. I awakened an ability that was referred to as the Prophetic ability ..
the ability to see far into the future ... however I haven't seen far too much in the future ... my limit was only to see 6 months in the future ...
hehe .. and as I grew up .. I grew to like this damned ability ...
at times when I got angry I would just watch the fate of the most narcissistic person in my school .. and it always turned out to be very bad ..
popcorn .. honey inside .. butter ... everything was set everytime I was moody .. so you could only imagine if you were someone I didn't like ... hahahahah ...
and oh wait .. today .. was the Expedition day .. we are going to a parallel universe to study the technology there .. and the current intelligence ..
it's going to be so cool ..
******
I dressed up in the usual outfit .. black jeans that fit perfectly fine ... some nice scholar shoes .. a good intelligence hat .. that is worn by intelligent people ..
glasses on flick ... my dark brown jacket making the eyes around me stare too much .. oh I am so flattered ..
I walked alongside my classmates as we approached the spaceship in the distance ..
the latest version ... Modig Speed Breaker Mark 7 ... just from the name alone you should be able to deduce how awesome the ship is ..
my classmates were already so eager to place their stupid fingers on the ship .. it seemed like I was the one who held back today .. I was such a gentleman ...
oh ... wait my day was ruined by this chap known as Peter ... he wore glasses .. a black jacket similar to mine .. nice fitting trousers and some very peculiar classy shoes ...
blue eyes .. rosy lips .. dark blonde hair .. every girl's dream ..
I didn't like him ... he always stole all of the attention despite me being so 'genius' ...
he glanced at me and said in a mocking tone .. "How're you doing Mr 'Genius' born every ten years ..? today I'm going to show you who's the most smartest and who has the most IQ ... " he then walked away with a bunch of girls behind him screaming his name ..
I looked away and ignored his words before getting inside the ship ...
*sigh* .. this was going to be fun ..
