Three thousand years ago, an event occurred that would change history. The Earth is about to experience an apocalypse when a meteor shower hits. The cause was a collision between two giant meteors in space adjacent to the Earth’s orbital line. Almost 80% of living things on Earth died. But it was not the only impact of the meteor shower of the time. Anyone who can survive will have tremendous strength. The power of the so-called Odd Eye Circle (OEC) or another name for Tyr Gods Syndrome. Each owner of this power can manipulate human brains to kill each other or something that normal humans cannot think of. Anyone with an Odd Eye Circle has a characteristic: their two eyeballs have different colors. That is what distinguishes them from ordinary people.

Tears filled the entire room. The nurse immediately cleans the innocent baby, who is full of blood. Soon, a man appeared in the delivery room.

“How are my wife and son?”

“Your son is safe, Sir...” The nurse stopped her speech as doubt clouded her mind.

The man turned his face to the place where his wife was lying. His expression instantly froze when he found the woman he loved stiffening, not flinching. “Oh... No... No way...” He approached his wife, holding a cold hand. There are no visible signs of life there. Instantly destroyed the man’s feelings. He wept as he continued to hug his wife’s body. Perhaps because of this, the newborn also feels the grief of his father and also cries.

Then the man realized. With tears still on her face, she looked at her newborn son. How surprised he was when he found the boy’s eyes a different color, or it can be called Odd Eye Circle.

Realizing that he did not have much time, the man immediately took the baby in his arms and wrapped him tightly in a blanket. Try to keep the baby’s eyes invisible.

“No one should know about this,” he told two nurses there. “I have to go somewhere. I beg you to cremate my wife.”

“But Sir–”

“Please ... I just trust you.” The light in the man’s eyes was dim. Just like his heart slowly went numb.

“Okay... Mr. Foster.”

The storm hit with a relentless howling wind. The wind rushes to the trees and surrounding buildings. The night gripped anyone who dared to get out of the stopover. But that didn’t happen to the man dressed in all black in the middle of the night. His steps seemed cautious, while his face endlessly glanced in all directions, analyzing the situation still safely.

After a considerable struggle, he stopped in front of a large but old-looking building. There was still a window open, a sign of life there.

“I promise I’ll find you when it’s safe, my son,” the man said, remembering the baby beside him.

After that, he removed the baby from a box with some baby clothes and a letter. Then he returned the bell on the left side of the door. The man always faced the storm without waiting for the door to open. Perhaps because of the inner solid bond, the baby struggles to return to his father. The wind’s howling roared like an introductory melody of joy between them.

Fresh doors open. A rich, beautiful woman came from there. She is always looking for the proper presence of the baby at the door. She seemed to be holding the baby, holding him in her arms. The woman experiences her gaze, looking for the happiness of the offender who could give birth to the unfortunate baby in the middle of a dark storm. But, nothing. It’s just that she found a lot of papers in the box where the baby was. The letter accidentally referred to the owner of the baby before death.

‘My son, when you read this, know I love you very much. I promise to give you a safe world. Please wait for me. With an armful of love, I give you a name, Theodore.’

“Let’s play ball!” Exclaimed one of the boys, who was about seven years old.

“Come on! We share the first group,” replied another boy. “Who wants to play ball?”

“I am!”

“Me too!”

“I’m coming!”

Almost all the boys raised their hands. They try to raise it higher as if it could get them elected. There is no exception to the half-eye boy sitting in the corner of the room.

Slowly, he got up and then patted his pants, removing the dust from there. Only he didn’t get a seat and ended up sitting on the floor without a mat. “May I join you?”

The moment of silence struck. None of the crowd of children opened their voices other than to show a look of horror. Then they whispered to each other while glancing at the boy. Condescending gazes mixed with the simultaneous disgust they showed.

“Huh? Do you want to join? Didn’t I hear wrong? We only accept human members, not monsters like you!”

“That’s right! You disgusting monsters!”

“Get away from us before we take your eyes off you!”

“Ugh! Look at that different eye color; it’s disgusting.”

“Let’s just play, don’t care about the monster!”

The red half-eye boy could only bow his head when an expletive floated for him. It is not the first time he has been treated without wearing. It is all thanks to his eyes, which are different colors, unlike those of ordinary people.

“Hey, Theo! We changed our minds.” One of the boys returned with a sly smile on their face. “We need one more person in our team. You can come play.”

“Really?” asked the red half-eye boy – Theodore – with brightly lit eyes.

Hearing that, Theo didn’t want to waste the opportunity. He hopes that this will change his life for the better. He hopes to be accepted by his friends. So, Theo nodded and followed the group of boys with a big smile.

Unfortunately, his innocent mind caught Theo off guard, and he eventually met a lousy ending.

    One year laterThe night is not the end of the day. Quite the opposite. The setting sun is a sign that another new life is about to begin. Life isn’t warmer during the day. A whole life of cruel cruelty. It sounds dangerous, but it’s the real meaning of life. It’s as if nature as a living being is tested when surviving in this cruel world.“Hey! Fight him!”“Kill that red half-eye!”“No, surely the one who wins is the odd eye!”“I bet fifty bucks if the Reds win.”“I bet you one hundred bucks if that red-eye dies!”The crowd’s cheers at that time were increasingly thundering around the arena with two figures in the middle.

It practically provokes Jared’s emotions and eventually makes him chase one by one of his friends.Theo watched from the side-lines. Although it seemed to make fun of them, but he felt that the boys had no evil intentions at all. They're just really playing with each other. And, it was a rare sight Theo had ever seen in his entire life.“Excuse me...”One word from Theo instantly got the attention of the rest of the boys there. They simultaneously turned to Theo without daring to interrupt until Theo continued his speech.Theo stared at one by one of them and gulped his saliva roughly. “Can I play with you guys?”Quiet for a moment. Theo was worried. Then another surprise attacked him.“Oh my gosh... You don't have to ask permission to play with us!” One of the boys grabbed Theo’s shoulder tightly and was followed by the others.“That's right!

    The first class hour is underway. Before that, Theo Awards an affectionate punch to Jared for deceiving him that they were late when they weren't. Jared just laughed afterward.There were fifteen students in the class including Theo and Jared. They sat individually and since Theodore was a new student, he was placed in the last seat. Coincidentally in front of him was Jared's seat. Theo could take revenge if he wanted to but he enjoyed today's lesson so much. Today's class is about how to control the power of thought."Know that the human mind is very complex,” says the teacher – Prof. Abraham. He was an African–American man with half-bald hair and all of his hair almost gray. He was wise enough to teach. “The human brain is composed of many nerves with diverse patterns. Like a giant, scaled-down maze. To enter the human mind is to enter the labyrinth. Even the owner of the body is often lost in their minds. And how can we control someone's mind if we find it so difficult to understan

    Jared goes into Theo's room after knocking him first. Jared no longer wears a uniform but a black long-sleeved T-shirt with a number 07 on his back. He held a thick book in his hand.“Why haven't you changed your clothes?" Jared asked seeing Theo still in uniform this morning. “Change into the clothes in that closet.”Somewhat dazed, Theo opens the closet and finds some new clothes hanging there. His face glowed cheerfully. Then he chooses an outfit that catches his eye. A jacket with the image of an owl."Well, now we will talk about the rules in this school as well as in this dormitory.”There are many written rules, and Jared explains them carefully.06.0 – 07.30 Wake up and run the field for over an hour.07.45-08.30 bath and breakfast.08.45: following the lesson.12.00: lunch.12.30: following the second lesson.17.00: finish the lesson and students are free to do personal activities.19.00: dinner.21.00: bedtime.- All students are required to follow the stated schedule.

    "As a child, I accidentally fell and scratched the fence,” Theo replied, touching the wound on his neck.Jared grimaced. “That must so hurt.”“I don't remember because I fainted immediately.”“You're tough boys! You must be the Chosen One!”"Stop calling me the Chosen One.”They spent dinner chatting occasionally. Theo remembers that they should not bring this food into the room, so he increases the portion of food and finishes it quickly before dinner time runs out.When he arrived at the room, Theo was very bored because he was not sleepy yet, and he was not allowed to meet anyone. A dormitory supervisor was walking down the Hall, checking on anyone who dared to go out at the Forbidden time. Theo didn't want to get punished when he was very new here. And he still didn't have a book to read while he waited for sleepiness to come. Theo opened the bedroom window. The permanent windows that cannot be opened do not even have a balcony. But it was enough for him to see the scenery outside

    “Hey, it’s okay..” Unsuur berusaha menenangkan pembangun. Sekalipun perasaan getir menggaung dalam hatinya. Respon pembangun menjelaskan bahwa dia telah melupakan segala hal yang terjadi semalam setelah muntah. Begitu juga dengan ciuman singkat mereka.‘Memang apa yang aku harapkan? Dia hanya mabuk bukannya menanggapi dengan serius.’“Unsuur.”“Yeah...”Pembangun menunduk. Meski begitu, Unsuur dapat menemukan semburat rona yang menjalar dari wajah hingga telinga pembangun. Dia tengah bersemu. Tetapi keheningan ini membuat Unsuur merasa gelisah. Kalau-kalau pembangun malah mengingat hal yang tak mengenakan. Seperti...“Semalam, entah kenapa aku merasakan sesuatu yang lembut menempel di bibirku.”BADUM!“Kau yakin?”Pembangun mengedikkan bahu. “Entahlah... tak begitu yakin.”“Jika merasa tak enak, lebih baik lupakan saja.”“Tapi –”“Makanlah bubur itu, setelah itu akan ku antar kau pulang.”Dan Unsuur keluar dari kamar, meninggalkan pembangun di dalam kamarnya.‘Semestaku terhisap luban

Kini pembangun berwajah masam, kecewa atas sikap Unsuur yang menolak ajakannya. Tetapi alih-alih merasa ketakutan, Unsuur justru mengulum senyum. ‘Dia sangat menggemaskan~’ Unsuur membatin.“Ayo lah... biarkan aku mengajarimu caranya menari~”“Tapi –”Sebelum Unsuur menolak, pembangun sudah menarik tangannya. Dan Unsuur hanya bisa pasrah ketika dibawa ke tengah-tengah lantai dansa. Pandangannya terfokus ke arah tautan tangan mereka. Jari-jemari lembut pembangun menggenggam tangannya. Melihat itu membuat Unsuur menjadi lumayan tenang. Mungkinkah ini kekuatan cinta?“Ikuti saja musiknya.”Unsuur menelengkan kepala ke musik berasal. Kini lagu berte

Berbanding terbalik dengan seseorang yang duduk termenung di bawah pohon.“Hari ini tampak cerah bukan?” katanya dengan pandangan kosong. “Benar-benar cerah, tapi kenapa aku merasa kosong di sini. Seperti bukan diriku yang biasa. Aku merasa terlupakan sesaat. Seperti roda yang tiba-tiba berhenti, begitu juga dengan waktu yang berhenti berputar. Padahal Sandrok sedang aman tapi...”“Apa kau baik-baik saja, unsuur?”Yup, laki-laki itu adalah Unsuur. Sang kapten civil corp yang tak pernah sekalipun melupakan kewajibannya untuk membawa kedamaian di Sandrok. Kota kecil dengan penduduk yang saling mengenal satu sama lain.“Aku baik-baik saja, hanya saja...” Unsuur mengambil batu yang ada di dekatnya. “Aku merasa batu ini lebih berguna daripada keberadaanku.”“Jangan konyol!”Unsuur meringis. “Maaf, tak akan ku ulangi lagi.”
