The Prodigy System

Ariel, a teenager whose life took a supernatural turn on his 18th birthday when he acquired superpowers, became a vigilant shadow worker for two years. However, as he approached his 20th birthday, he found himself abruptly summoned to another world—the Prodigy Realm. Initially bewildered and unfamiliar with this new realm, Abban soon realized that it was now his home, and there was no turning back. Despite being the strongest in his previous world, he paled in comparison to the Prodigy Knights who protected this kingdom. Taken in by the Prodigy Knights, Ariel faced the challenge of adapting to his new life. Under the mentorship of Ihaan, the most powerful Prodigy Knight, he learned the intricacies of both life and combat. The question lingered: Could he truly integrate into this unfamiliar society? Earn their trust? Or would he forever be an outsider? With new threats looming over the kingdom and the Prodigy Realm embroiled in a Great Prodigy War, Ariel's survival became uncertain. A human in a world teeming with inhuman monsters and prodigy users, Ariel set out to leave his mark. As the mysteries of the Prodigy Realm unfolded, a narrative of blood and betrayal began to take shape. Ariel's journey would be fraught with challenges, but the ultimate question remained: Would he be able to carve a place for himself amidst these extraordinary beings, or would he become a casualty of the Great Prodigy War? Only time would reveal the destiny of this unexpected hero in a realm of prodigious powers and perilous secrets.

Amir The Prince of The House Augmentum

 One stare from Ihaan and the whole room's aura changed and everyone out of fear stopped talking. "So, I was saying that he has come from another realm and he doesn't know even basics about Augmentum prodigies. So today we will go over the basics. So, you can just do whatever you have learned so that I can explain Eldris force and its types and how to use it." All the others started doing exercises like jumping and punching the air. Some just stood there eyes closed like they were meditating. But Ariel wasn't the only one standing there, the girl from before was also standing right next to him. She had a notebook in her hand. "So, Ariel you know about Eldris force, right?"

"Yes, it's the energy I got from Eldris that I met. It's just like life energy but more like secondary energy that Aurians use to do stuff. Like teleportation and Time manipulation." The gray-haired kid, who was just standing and staring at Ariel, smirked. "He wants to do Teleportation by using Eldris Energy." He laughed. Neither Ariel nor Ihaan paid any attention to him. "What you said is right, but we don't use Eldris force you see Eldris force has 3 types; Nur energy, Djinn energy, and third is nature's or natural energy. I can explain all of them but right now all we need to know is Djinn energy. Because the Eldris type you got is Djinn energy." 

"So, it has three types and I got Djinn that sounds cool and diabolic. Do these types have something to do with how powerful we are? I mean I got Djinn is it strong or not?"

"Normally, in Aurians, the Eldris force is decided by your which one your dad has. It's all about genes, you inherit, and a commoner who doesn't even know which one their father has just got the same that their father would have if he was an Aurian. So, Eldris's force and your attribute both depend on genes. But in your case, we were curious about which attribute and energy will you be getting. Because your father wasn't an Aurian and your mother wasn't as well, not that it matters. As for power, no, it doesn't matter which type or attribute you get. Yes, some are easy to master and more helpful for offense. And there are attributes like Elysium that just help in healing but I am someone who can fight pretty well. So, it all comes down to how gifted or hardworking you are, and most important in Augmentum is creativity. It's simple but you can do anything with this attribute."

"You haven't told me what is this Augmentum and attribute."

"It's difficult to explain if you were born here it would have been easy. I'll try. So, everyone here is born in some house and these houses are families and in this family, every man has the same attributes means they can use the same type of powers. As these kids belong to the House Of Augmentum, they have the power to increase or decrease. For example, one can simply increase his strength if one concentrates their Djinn energy at a point. They can make their bodies strong enough to stand a bullet." Ariel was a quick learner, but it was too much to get in his head and process over, even for him. "So, all I can do is concentrate my Djinn energy into my knuckles to punch hard. So, all that I can do is increase my strength and harden my body with training. That just sounds like hitting the gym." The gray-haired kid advanced toward Ariel; "You dare mock our House. We are considered one of the strongest. And it's not that simple. Just like Master said 'it depends on creativity.' That I guess you don't have."

Ihaan sat down on the ground, his right hand on his knee. "You are Amir from the Emir Family, right?" Amir shakes his head in approval; "Yes. I am heir to the throne of the House of Augmentum."

"I think it's easy if you show him. Because explaining to someone who lived his life believing that all he can do is throw or take a punch is not the best way."

Amir smirked, thinking he had got a perfect chance to show how great he was. "I have been practicing weight increase and decrease."

"So, you work out to get slim and then eat to get fat," Amir smirked at Ariel's compliment. "You are an arrogant one. But let me teach you what an actual Augmentum can do." Amir takes out a small piece of rock not more than 3cm. The rock was perfectly sharpened into a square.

He took it in his hand and placed his other hand on it. Both of his hands started giving off yellow lightning. After exactly three seconds, the hands returned to normal. "Are you ready?" Ariel was looking carefully. Amir took the stone in his right hand and threw it towards Ariel. He dodged it thinking the rock was coming for him, but the wall wasn't so lucky. The rock blasted through it.

The wall looked like it had been struck by a cannonball. The throw made a hole through a 6-foot thick wall. Ariel's jaws dropped just like the other students. Amir folded his hands, ready to hear the praise. "That was amazing." Ariel complimented. Amir was ready to be praised by other students, but he thought Ariel wouldn't be the one to praise him. He was shocked at how he showed his praise for someone who saw him just as a nuisance. "Well, I come from a noble family." He shrugged, maintaining his cool. 

"Noble or not, that is amazing. So, we can increase weight and power of anything, not just our body?"

"Yes, we can increase and decrease weight, power, strength, flexibility, hardness, etc," Ihaan says while standing up. "And Amir, you are going to have to pay for repairs. And we are going to report this to your father."

"But you asked me to show him. Please don't. My father will kill me." Ihaan goes near the hole in the wall and places his hand on it. "As you can see Ariel, it's not as simple as just working out in a 'gym', whatever that thing is." 

"So, are you going to tell me how to do it?"

"I am busy, so ask Amir if he can help you." Amir looks confused. Ariel looks at him. "I won't invite you."

Ihaan stares outside from the hole; "I should call someone quick to send the news to King Emir about what his kid has done here."

"Okay, I will teach him. Just don't call my dad." Amir looks at Ariel "You can't come to my place, so we will meet on the forest road. It's right below the large mountain that's in front of Prodigy Academy." He says to him. Ariel frowned and smiled.

Ihaan advanced towards the girl who couldn't speak; "You are from House of Inventum. Why are you here?" The girl didn't answer. She took out her notebook, wrote something, and gave it to Master Ihaan. "I want to learn how to fight and in my attribute, it's all about creating things, but I want to learn how to fight and I have been told you are the best. I am here to ask you to train me in combat. I can't just keep creating things to help others. I want to learn how to use my attributes to fight like my brother."

Ihaan gives the notebook back to her. "Go to room 3C, the teacher there will teach you. She is a healer, but she is pretty much monstrous when it comes to fighting." The girl throws her head down in disappointment. "I have something urgent to attend to." Ihaan claps his hands; "Today, just practice what you know and get along with each other. And when you are done, you can leave. Training starts tomorrow." Amir whispers in Ariel's ear;

"I've heard today is his first day dealing with students. He has no idea how to teach. All he knows is how to slaughter." Ihaan opens the door, steps outside, and closes the door again.

"I am going; I'll meet you tomorrow morning," Amir said and then just left, he didn't use the door. He jumped out from the art he just had created.

"Okay," Ariel answered in return.

After that, he just asked other students about how to concentrate Djinn's energy. They tried but weren't much help. Ariel tried again and again to concentrate on Djinn energy to increase his power. He succeeded, but he was able to increase his power only a bit. But it was a great feat considering it was his first day.
