Raziel woke up early in the morning. It has been a year since the world disaster occured.The world has changed for him. He is someone who can be classified as part of the food chain before the worldwide disaster happened but now things have changed for him. He was one of the few set of the rest of the world population that picked up a slate of power.
According to the government, due to the world disaster, an electromagnetic energy has been released and has spread throughout the world. These who picked up a slate of power gained the ability to manipulate this energy for their use. However, this energy is destroying every source of crude oil present in the world. The presence of this energy in the world has led to anarchy and chaos. Some of those who picked up a slate of power and gained supernatural abilities have used their powers to carry out criminal activities. Since they only gained some semblance of supernatural power, they are in the end still vulnerable to weapons. The government has been offering incentives to the superhumans to work for them. Those who are not willing to work for the government have created their own groups where they help each other to discover more about their abilities.
Just three months after the disaster, the government have figured out a way for those who didn't claim a slate of power when the world disaster happened to gain supernatural abilities. For ordinary humans to learn how to manipulate this electromagnetic energy, you have to sign a contract with the government. I do not know how the government figured it out and honestly, I don't think I care.
Unfortunately, it was not only the humans who gained powers. As a matter of fact, the animals especially the marine animals are one of the biggest benefactors of the world disaster. Animals who came into contact with the slate of power gained intelligence and supernatural powers.
There are only three countries left standing after the disaster, each country having its own government.
