1 Prologue

"Brotherrrr!!! How could you?", the anger in Esau's voice was evident. His brown eyes glowed as he faced his brother. He had been tracking him for years but had always been one step behind. Today he was finally lucky and had intercepted him. So he thought.

" How have you been Esau?", the tall and very much feminine man giggled. He was what one could tag as 'beautiful'. His long straight golden hair rested effortlessly on his shoulders. His blue eyes could even make men lose themselves in it. His smooth skin was a pale white and was devoid of hairs. Although biological brothers, Esau was very much different. He had brown eyes, his black hair was short and curly. Unlike his brother, he was hairy. His skin was what stood out the most. In the thousands of kingdoms, he was the first and only man to be born with brown skin. Because of this, he had been branded an abomination.

"Begone with your your salutations fool. You have deceived father and have taken what is rightfully mine.", Esau spat. He jumped down from his horse and unsheathed a sword.

"Come down and face me brother so I may quench my anger with your blood."

Battles between friends and family were not unheard of. As long as it didn't end in death, they were accepted. In fact, they were very much common. A world filled with greed, anger, envy and many others. What better way existed to settle disputes?

Esau's brother only left out a loud laugh before leaping from his horse. He walked towards Esau and stood almost ten feet from him but he didn't pull out his sword.

"Pull out your sword Jacob!", Esau scowled.

Jacob grinned wildly. It was obvious he was enjoying himself.

"You must be extremely angry. For my name to have been spoken with your lips"

"but forgive me, you'd have to fight me as I am", Jacob added after a brief pause.

Esau's face turned ugly. He could tell what Jacob was playing at. He was a man of honor. A warrior that would never attack an unarmed man but this was different. After several unsuccessful years of trying to find his brother, he finally succeeded. He was already too exasperated to let his honor come in the way of his revenge.

"Then do not blame me for what's about to happen next", kicking his leg against the ground he sprinted towards the calm looking Jacob. In an instant he had covered the little space between them. He swung his sword with all his might. He definitely was going for the kill.

Yes, Jacob was his brother but they were never really close. They were too different and never saw eye to eye. Moreover, Jacob had stolen his birthright. He was the rightful owner of the blessing passed down from their father but Jacob had somehow stolen that from him.

Without hesitation, Esau swung his sword at his brother. His intention was to severe his head from his neck in one stroke.

"Huh", he furrowed his eyebrows. He couldn't move. His sword was stuck in the air and his body was posed awkwardly as he had not completed his strike.

Jacob burst into a loud chuckle. His eyes were now glowing a deep hue of green. He stretched his hand towards Esau's sword and like it had a mind of its own it floated into his hands.

"What is this sorcery?", Esau cried as he saw his own sword leave his hands for his brother's.

"Sorcery?", Jacob laughed again.

"This is no sorcery brother. This is the power of my blessing", he added casually.

Esau's face darkened. His father's Blessing didn't have such effect. Blessings were graded into ranks. E being the lowest and S being the highest. His Father's blessing was called "Gain by dawn" and it was a C-rank blessing. Even C rank blessings were extremely rare and could not just be possessed by anybody. "Gain by dawn" had the ability to reduce the risk on any business by 40%. It was relatively a gold miner and it was what had kept his family wealthy for years. But what Jacob was using right now was nothing like his Father's.

Although he had never come across Blessings higher than C rank, he could just tell this was higher.

Jacob brandished the sword in his hand expertly.

"Did you never wonder how you finally found me after so many years?", he asked.

"I made you find me. You see..... I got blessed again", he paused to check the expression on his brother's face. Satisfied by it, he continued.

"This blessing is different though...... It was given to me by the Almighty himself", he grinned.

"Impossible!!", Esau's eyes widened in shock. He could not bring himself to believe it.

"You got the almighty touch?! Absurd!", he screamed. It was more like he was trying so hard not to believe it. The almighty's touch was a legend. A blessing that was above even the legendary S-rank blessings. A blessing that was given directly by the Almighty.

Jacob only laughed at Esau's reaction before continuing.

"Honestly, I was really lucky to have stumbled upon the fleshy embodiment of God. Alone in the wilderness, I wrestled with him for days and promised not to stop until he blessed me. And here we are"

Esau's face was devoid of color. He had come here to kill his thief of a brother but had stumbled across this! He was helpless, he tried so hard to move but his body wouldn't budge.

Jacob, seeing his brother struggle against his bind, couldn't help but grin. His eyes still glowing a dark green, he raised the sword and stabbed it into Esau's stomach. His eyes finally returned to its original color.

"Die brother"

Crimson colored blood gushed out uncontrollable as he pulled out the sword. The light in Esau's eyes dwindled as he dropped to his knees. He could feel his life slowly leaving him. The world was gradually darkening and his body was becoming heavier by the second.

'Is this truly my end? Born different yet so unlucky. What was my purpose in this life? I grew up being hated and discriminated against. I deserved better than this. God!!!! Why have you forsaken me??? What sin did I commit?.... On the brighter side, I get to meet my father. ', At the brink of completely losing his consciousness, a voice spoke to him.

"Do you want to live?"

The voice was filled with so much power that Esau felt his soul tremble.

"Do you want strength?"

The voice sounded once more. Its might, not any less.

Although Esau was on death's door, he could hear all this. It felt like the voice was speaking to his soul. Trying with all his might, he forced out a yes.

"I see. This is your ultimate blessing yet the ultimate curse. Do you still wish to proceed?", the voice continued.

Esau answered just like previously. Curse or no curse, he wanted to live.

"It shall be done!"

Immediately, there was a bright flash of light, followed by an intense rush of energy. Esau's body jerked uncontrollably as energy continued to flow into him. He could feel the vigorous change occurring to his body, he could feel his cells break down and modify. His skin felt like it was on fire but unexpectedly, it felt good. He felt strong and alive. At that instant, his eyes shot wide open and a voice played in his head.

"You have met the requirements. You have unlocked the system. Name the system"
