Systems

Hi everyone! It's Light here 👋

Here is a short note before proceeding to the main reason for this chapter. I am happy that you have given my story a chance to be seen, read or heard. 

It has been and would always be a long journey.

I am happy and really do appreciate you, and I hope that we can have many things in common in the future.

This chapter may be considered a spoiler. The information in this chapter is just here to help you understand the novel's power systems as they are complex. Because it isn't just awakened power systems; there are also cursed power systems. The two are crucial to the novel plot in the story. 

I ought to introduce them in the novel, but I can't or thought that it might disrupt the momentum of the plot, but don't be surprised when I explained more of it in the chapters, this is just for creating momentum. It feels good to let you know beforehand, since if I tried explaining in the novel it would only be brief.

I would really be happy if you accept my approach, anyway, on–to explaining the power systems. 

I would really be happy if you accept my approach, anyway, on–to explaining the power systems. 

[The awakened systems] 

**Awakened** 

The awakened are humans who were given or have developed supernatural powers that exceed normal humans' ability; they are also known as the protectors of the world.

**Tiers** 

Are the ranks of awakened based on their ability or evolution.

There are five tiers in the awakened systems, and each represents their skill level. Each tier measures from the weakest to the strongest.

Basic tier 

Ascended tier 

Exalted tier 

Transcendent tier 

Apex tier.

**Evolution and awakening**

They're many ways humans awaken their powers and abilities and also evolve based on their awakening types. 

There are five types of different awakening and evolution.

Natural awakening: involves years of meditating or rigorous training before undergoing an awakening.

Forced Awakening: It involves the process where humans are injected with a serum that grants supernatural abilities to the individual and results in awakening. 

Gifted Awakening: It happens when an individual is gifted from birth, different from the first two. A gifted awakened has a talent from birth and when they reach the age of fifteen, then they awaken. This type of awakened is rare but also somewhat common and is based on bloodline.

Special Awakening: It happens when an individual awakens at the brink of death or near death. It involves the person in question having strong resolve before death or danger to awaken, rare but does occurs. 

Note: Just as they're different awakening types, evolution is also tied to the awakened types.

Example: A natural awakened evolves by training for years or months to evolve. A forced awakened needs to be given another evolved serum to evolve but only if the individual's body can take the backlash. That also applies to gifted and special awakened.

[The Cursed system]

**Cursed**

They're humans, animals, or plants turned into Cursed creatures, titans, monsters, demons, beasts, devil's and so on.

**Class**

A measure of power or intelligence that is based on the Cursed class. There are three types of Cursed ranging from mindless to intelligent Cursed.

Common Cursed

Uncommon Cursed

Elite Cursed

**Cursed ranks**

This is another measure of their power and what they could do, ranging from the weakest to the strongest.

Dormant 

Forbidden 

Twisted 

Reformed 

Devil 

These are the ranks of the Cursed from each class. Note this rank applies to the three Cursed classes but they're stronger than the other, even if they share the same rank but different classes.

Example: An uncommon Dormant Cursed can rival a forbidden common Cursed. 

While a Twisted Elite's Cursed can rival a devil uncommon Cursed. The class are the gap between them, and since Elite's classes are more intelligent, they have more edges than the two lower classes.

**Cursed plant**

Tree plants or weed Cursed into a life force that strengthen the power of the Cursed or something granting them evolution.

Cursed plant are like power house, but also it can grow in any human territory to suck their life forces and turn them into fresh transformed Cursed. 

Note: a Cursed plant is dangerous in many ways, that even awakened became wary of them than a dormant or forbidden common Cursed. 

**Dungeons, gates, doors**

These are the ways Cursed spawn up in cities, and this differentiates them as their class.

Doors; a common Cursed resides in a door.

Dungeons; an uncommon Cursed resides here, though it may be a vast land, mountain, or sea, it leads to anywhere but its an illusion

Gates; an Elite's Cursed resides here, and it also spawns many illusions.

Also the three Cursed domains can spawn anywhere. 

**Cursed arts and technique.**

Cursed technique; they're the innate ability of oneself.

Cursed arts; they're the copies of one's innate ability into many skills, or prowess. It's called arts because you create it in your own way, like how humans draw paintings in their own taste.

Example: a Cursed blood technique could be divided into three arts, per the user's desires. Blood rains, blood meteor, blood strike, and so on.

Note: Art requires a pillar to have many limited Cursed energies to be able to create a Cursed Art.

Note; all what I have named in this chapter or in novel is how I want it to be, you might find words like "Curses in Cursed" actually it served it purpose in the plot, it not just a curses but they're referred to that because of their nature of being a Cursed creatures.
