History
In the early twenty-first century, a supreme alien colony invaded earth and claimed the planet. All buildings, weaponry, and items were either snatched from the human hands, or demolished, all around the globe, rendering the humans powerless. Both the continents of America and Oceania have been taken over by the alien race, with all humans on either side being transported over to Europe, Africa, and Asia.
The aliens decided to spare the lives of the humans, and use them as slaves of war for their next galactic invasion. It was vital, however, to only select the very best of the human fighters, those of the supreme gene pool.
It was decided to found a school on each continent of the globe. Each would follow a specific theme under the general criteria of school clubs. The final decision led to the following school clubs:
Europe: Art
Africa: Sports
Asia: Nature
With the school club themes being too general, it was decided that each country would house an even more specific choice underneath the general school club. For example, Germany would be responsible for music, while the Netherlands would be responsible for sculpting and France for painting.
At first, no instructions were left by the aliens for the humans on what to do, until the humans were the ones to decide their fates. Eventually, greed overtook them as wars ravaged between clans, fighting over every scarce bit of land, resource, and food. The aliens were taken aback by this change in behavior, and so they decided to place a leash on this out-crazed desire to fight.
The humans would only be capable of fighting one another after school, five times a week, from 4PM and until 9PM. Human clans would be separated according to continents, where countries of the same continent would unite to throw back any rivaling clans nearby. During the weekends, the humans would work on improving their armies and soldiers. Again, without the aid of the aliens, the humans decided to hold battle royals every weekend to determine every warrior's worth, and their positions in the army. Those who were defeated were left to endure hard labor as punishment.
The aliens fitted the humans with weapons knowns as SFIR, which are orbs of different colors, according to rank, that can contain any kind of weapon, which can be summoned back and forth at will. These weapons could also be disabled and enabled at the will of the aliens, preventing any acts that would not abide by their regulations. The weapons ranks start with Tier 10 being the lowest, and tier 0 being the highest. Tier 0 is only available to the aliens.
While the aliens had not anticipated this reaction from the humans, it was still according to their own agendas. The objective to all this was to teach the human race the principles and knowledge the alien race had accumulated over the years, while pulling out all the weeds running amok the humans. The school-related design of things was the culmination of that thought. This was their way of creating the ultimate galactic army.
And now
The survivors of the alien invasion are now forced to obey and attend the classes held by the aliens. These schools all run five days a week, from Monday to Friday. After school, the survivors must engage in combat on the front lines of war, to attempt to capture the lands of rivaling continents. On weekends, special battle royals take place to determine every warrior's worth.
Every warrior is given a SFIR, of a rank ranging from the lowest Tier 10 to the highest available for warriors of Tier 4. Losing meant that you would not only lose a large sum of your accumulated riches, you spend more time doing labor work, which increases even more as your losses stack to the point where it consumes your entire life. It is because of this that losing is not an option.
Each continent has a capital country, with the capital assignments being as follows:
Africa: Angola
Europe: United Kingdom
Asia: India
Battle royals take place in the capital city arenas. People travel to the capital using underground metro systems which connects all countries around the continent to the capital. Warriors are forced to travel overnight and arrive on the next day.
Each continent is assigned a council, which is responsible for keeping order among their fellow peers. An Imperator is assigned the position of dictator, where he or she can decree any law without question, as long as it abides with those of the alien race. The Imperator may even decide on who would participate and who wouldn't for the upcoming battle royal.
In terms of special weaponry offered to the council, the Imperator is the only person allowed to wield Tier 1 weapons, the War commander is the only person who can wield Tier 2 weapons, and the government officials are allowed Tier 3 weapons. Combatants are only allowed to use weaponry of any tier up till Tier 4.
Where you stand
Our side of the story takes place in the United Kingdom, homeland of theater and drama, and the capital of Europe, which is the art club. You are three of the following: a European citizen; a migrant from either Asia or Africa whom has been given permission to reside in the city due to your excellence in combat; or a war prisoner from those two continents, forced to fight against your will for the kingdom.
Now, tell me, young fighter: Who are you?
