Chapter 45: Esper World Introduction
'Esper Society Introduction - The Supreme Force.'
"What a domineering name," Rina couldn't help but remark, her eyes flashing with interest.
Kaizer, for that matter, only narrowed his eyes and flipped open the folder, reading silently with Rina beside him. There were only the sounds of pages flipping slowly and the occasional gasp before the final page was turned and the document was closed.
By this point, the expression of Kaizer and Rina were vastly different from before, with Kaizer being thoughtful while Rina was bored. Keith saw their reactions and shook his head, asking directly: "Well, what do you think?"
What did they think?
Kaizer was not exactly sure how to put it. The document they just read was very informative, almost too much. It not only included the current situation of the esper world but also a brief history about it.
As expected, Espers had existed since the first gathering of homo sapiens, with small tribes appointing them as shamans, chiefs, and even carving totems based on their power. It was precisely because of espers that homo sapiens could suppress all the other homo species and become the supreme foundation, leading to humans today.
Every major event since history featured them: the Greek Gods were espers, the Roman Gods, the Egyptians, etc. Of course, the name given to espers changed over the course of history, which was why ancient espers called themselves gods and such.
This lasted up until today, where espers had become more regulated and organized with the growth of humanity, gradually fading into the background after the introduction of modern weaponry that could defeat 99% of espers.
