Knock. Knock.
Knocks started to echo throughout the room without notice, but the man was sound asleep, not even moving an inch.
"Wake up, or I'll come in~"
"Nghh…" Strangely, the male woke up because of this message, as if he was awake the whole time. He rubbed his sleepy eyes before getting up from the bed and replying, "Fine, I'm aw-"
Before he could finish his words, the door was opened. He saw the familiar figure that had always been waking him up every morning, whether he liked it or not. She had long blond hair with pink tips that reached her waist, big blue eyes, a small nose, as well as a pair of moist lips. She wore a white shirt and a baggy pair of shorts.
Those clothes made her charm more enchanting, accentuating her beautiful proportion even further. She could cook and even do house chores. That's right. She would be a perfect girl, if only she wasn't such a fucking…
"Aka!~" She threw herself towards him. He had gotten used to this, so he avoided her and let her crash into his bed.
I avoided her, but it didn't make her feel disappointed. Instead, she grabbed his pillow as she smiled. "Fufu~ Aka's scent. He will go with me to awaken his mark!"
I glanced at her before increasing my distance from her. She was indeed happy, but then she realized another matter, making her mood turn for the worse. She said with a dark tone, "That's right, what if Aka gets a girlfriend during the session? Damn you, government. I should change this policy when I become one of the SSS-rank heros. Or should I..."
"No killing, raping, or slavery, please," I replied with an uninterested tone. I had gotten used to this side of her. Her name was Kushi Verio. She was his incurable yandere sister… well, adopted sister. My parents found her in a A-class dungeon raid when they were hunting and decided to adopt her.
They decided to adopt her so that I could have an older sister that could protect me. But she became like this.
I shook his head helplessly at the thought. I glanced at the mark on her left calf. Everyone had a mark like this on their body. I didn't have one at the moment. For Kushi, she had a trident on her left calf.
Long ago, and I'm talking billions of years ago, a strange accident occurred on Earth.
A message echoed through everyone's ear.
[Welcome to a new age]
Organisms started to evolve at a rapid rate and ecosystems became chaotic, mountains grew taller and oceans grew deeper.
Housepets became killing machines, and killing machines, became nation wide threats. The situation became chaotic because animals throughout the globe started turning into beasts faster than humans evolving. In the present years, they were called 'Magical Beasts'. People who owned pets died on the first wave after their pets killed them.
The government tried to fight them, but it was obvious that killing those beasts would not be that easy. Numerous nations were ruined by these magical beasts. These beasts terrorized the entire Earth. Without any other choice left, the people around the world joined hands to fight them.
Humans awakened their mark, weather it was though natural awakening were a mark would awaken through their evolution, or forced awakening, forcing the mark out of them.
A mark was the tool they used to fight magical beasts, magical beasts didn't have marks, but highly intelligent beasts did, and those were the ones that could level whole continents if they willed it.
"I wonder what class he will get, what element, what style, just thinking of it turns me on~" Kushi said with hearts in her eyes.
"Stop it already, I already have a girl I love." Akatsuki said.
"Who is she, I'll..."
"Don't even think about it." Akatsuki said as his blue eyes started to turn red.
"O-Ok, I'm sorry..." Kushi said in fear.
'How cute! His angry makes me hot! I wonder what he will do to me~' Kushi thought as she imagined her in chains and Akatsuki infront of her with his heavenly sword, I'll let you guys guess what type.
"Lets go..." I said as he was walking downstairs, he was already pissed that he didn't complete his mission, and Kushi made him even more pissed.

It has been 10 years, I have grinded a lot, and today is going to be my biggest power boost so far!
"What will happen if I get a mark, its from the gods after all, and as far as I know, sin energy rejects mana."
[I don't know. It's as simple as that]
"Fuck you."
[I share the same feeling]
"What did you just say honey?" a woman said in the kitchen, she had snow white hair and ocean blue eyes, she was my mom.
"N-Nothing!" if she heard what I just said, I would die.
"Good! Your getting your mark today, so be a good boy ok?" Ane said with a vein popping from here head.
"And I'm coming with you~" Kushi said as she hugged me.
"Fuck off!"
"..."

*Huff*Huff*
I almost died their, my moms ability is ice control, the room froze and an ice dagger was aimed straight at my face. I was stronger than most but that wasn't enough to stand the pressure my mom was giving off.
"Be smart and shut your trap, one more word and this will be in your head, I have healing potions so don't worry, there will be more." Ane said with a creepy smile.
"Thats why you don't piss your mom off, my most life threatening experiences have been from here ya know. Also, to keep your new brother/sister safe, freezing midway wont do any good, will it." my dad said while we were sparing, I held two daggers and he was fighting bare handed.
"Yep I know, and also, your mark, the dragon, what is it?" I asked.
"Oh this boy? This allows me to have the features of a dragon for a limited time, boosting my power by a lot, no cooldown, just need mana to supply." he said with a grin while sending jabbs to my stomach region.
Blocking them with my daggers, I asked, "What are the types of marks that exist."
"There are 5 types of marks, one is elemental, like your mothers, they allow you to have limited control over a certain element. Weapon types allow a weapon to be summoned from your mark and it evolves as you evolve, they create the strong awakened if the wielder will put in the work to master their weapon. Beast are marks that allow you to take on a form of a beast for a certain amount of time. I have this type of mark, my beast is the dragon as you know." Akatsu said as he sent a blow straight to my face, but I ducked and stabbed at his knees, then dad did a mid air flip and landed, repeating the same blows that I was blocking, but at a faster rate, this was keeping me on my toes.
"Umm, dad, could you go a little bi-
"So as I was saying, beast is the third, then there are theory marks, they are marks that use the power of science, using things like mirrors and things created by elements to a more advanced level, but just that, they are mainly looked down upon, but they are just as strong, if not stronger than elements, as you can access powers even the elements cannot create, such as gravity. Lastly, there are god marks, special beings blessed by god's will gain god marks, these allows for the user to use all of the other marks, but there are a select few who have such marks, say for the fire gods mark, the element would be fire, the weapon would be a hammer, the beast would be a cerberus, the theory mark would be something like metal bending or another theory, I can't predict such things, and the last this is the gods blessing, giving the user a gift from the god."
Little does he know, I already have 4.
"Your going to get your mark today, right?" my dad said as he did a strange technique, tapping a point in my arm, making me paralyzed for a few second, but that let him trap me in a headlock.
"Y-Yeah."
"I don't care what mark you get, but you must work hard, you may not be as good as your sister, but I want you must have a drive to get stronger." he said as he let go and patted my head.
"Good session today! Go get them boy!"
"I will dad! Love you!" I said as I ran off into the distance.
"Love you too!" he said as he entered the house.
