THE INCEPTION OF MAYHEM

--- **Synopsis:** In a universe where gods wage war and mortals suffer the fallout, a young boy named Aetheris Lucernas Abaddon is born into a world that neither welcomes nor understands him. His origins are shrouded in mystery, with whispers of an impossible union that defies all known laws of existence. From the moment of his birth, it was clear that Aetheris was different—something beyond comprehension. As a child, Aetheris felt the pull of ancient forces, whispers from beings older than time itself, urging him toward a destiny steeped in darkness and grandeur. With each passing year, his power grew, shaping him into a figure that could transcend the boundaries of reality. No longer merely a boy, Aetheris became a living legend, an entity that embodied both sin and salvation, hope and despair. But with this power came a relentless burden. Gods, monsters, and mortals alike demanded that Aetheris use his unimaginable strength for their purposes. They pleaded, they threatened, and they schemed, each seeking to control the force that he had become. Aetheris, however, was not one to be controlled. "I am the beginning and the end!" Aetheris declares, his voice resonating through the very fabric of the universe. "I am beyond your understanding, beyond your gods and your nightmares. The power I hold is mine alone!" As he defies those who seek to bend him to their will, the consequences of Aetheris's choices ripple across the cosmos. His actions stir entities long forgotten, and the mortal realms tremble as the line between creation and destruction blurs. Chaos spreads like wildfire, and the very universe teeters on the brink of collapse. Yet, in the midst of this cosmic upheaval, Aetheris faces a harrowing truth: in his relentless pursuit of power, he may have become the very force of chaos he once sought to escape. *The Inception of Mayhem* is the story of Aetheris Lucernas Abaddon, a tale of ambition, power, and the thin line between humanity and monstrosity. As his choices threaten to reshape the destiny of all, Aetheris must confront the darkness within and decide whether he will be the savior of his world—or its greatest downfall. ...

The Dyson sphere 2.0

The Dyson sphere halted its movements and began to crumble as it broke down into smaller particles of sand

' I wonder what kind of properties do the threads have after consuming the Mineral ore' pondered Aetheris with anticipation

A small shining silver thread was in his hands, the thread had the default color of the mineral ore that it got its properties from.

Aetheris's threads are organic, and he only needs to consume a material once to gain its properties and his body will handle the rest

Aetheris slowly stretched the thread to feel its elasticity and durability, the point of using this specific thread is Mana conductivity and transference

With the snap of his fingers, the Dyson sphere regained its previous form, but this time there were a few changes inside and outside

His threads can be as large as he wants or as small as he prefers them to be, and this essential detail is what's going to upgrade the Dyson sphere

The central pillar no longer had small holes for his claws but a small hexagonal structured hole to insert a Mana stone and use it as a constant power source

Aetheris slowly approached the smooth round walls of the Dyson sphere and laid his palms on them slowly as he injected a web of his new silver threads

Aetheris is creating a transference channel that allows him to regulate the energy flow throughout the Dyson sphere, he wasn't just creating a simple channel, but he was creating countless complex interwoven channels where each channel had a different purpose.

The threads were reinforcing the Dyson sphere from the inside, thus increasing its durability and decreasing its massive energy consumption, but he was also avoiding the fact that he might have to destroy it and rebuild from scratch when he upgrades it again, but he would only need to maintain it to make more complex

"Hahhh, it's been a long time since I built something… It's More like my skills have been elevated to a greater degree".

Aetheris looked around the sphere and saw countless small lines which were similar to circuitry lines, but they looked more complex however they were indeed circuitry lines.

These lines created a complex hive and countless channels that would grant Aetheris countless possibilities of ideas in the future

Aetheris approached the central pillar and inserted a Mana stone, the central pillar also had threads that would act as conduits for siphoning the Energy from the Mana stones

The circuitry lines within the Dyson sphere began to glow in a golden color indicating that the Dyson was in perfect condition, and it was receiving power perfectly

The circuitry lines had different colors that specified multiple things, Red for low-power supply, blue for overdrive, orange for standby mode and green for battle mode

"It's time to move to the next step of the upgrade…" muttered Aetheris as he snapped his fingers

Countless red and black threads began to weave a cushion, blanket, pillow, and simple comfortable full garments for him to wear

Aetheris has no need to bathe or brush his teeth since his body is free from impurities, and therefore he is always clean, and he releases an arousing smell of nature that is greatly accompanied by his devilishly charming horns and looks

"Something is missing…, how could I forget the operating system" sighed Aetheris as he looked at the central pillar

With a wave of his hand the central pillar expanded into a curved shaped elongated pillar that had more operating features

The Dyson sphere 2.0 has no operating system since it has limited resources, but it contains more features compared to Dyson sphere 1.0

The new central pillar had buttons for many things such as turning the sphere on and off,opening the door or window, switching into overdrive or battle mode and size adjustment

There are also two levers, one for increasing or decreasing speed and the other for increasing or decreasing energy supply

"Lets see how much are you better than the Dyson sphere 1.0"muttered Aetheris as he pushed the on button and pushed forward the levers

The circuitry lines within the sphere began to glow as Mana was siphoned from the Mana stone

The Dyson sphere slowly moved as it was infused with Mana,the Dyson sphere could handle more pressure due to the upgrade and better internal reinforcement

"Oof, it's time to approach the beacon and finish forming my pathway… I miss… " Muttered Aetheris as he wore his clothes and sat on the cushion while observing the silent desert.

This infinite desert is nothing but a small fragment of the Formless Absolute Eternal Void, think of the Universe that is infinitely expanding as nothing but a drop of water in a larger universe

The Formless Absolute Eternal Void has many abstract constructs that fall under it and the abyss that represents the principle of Nothingness and The End of everything is one of them

The desert is silent and empty because anyone who enters the abyss would meet their 'end' regardless of whether they transcend death or they are immortal, meaning even undeads are not spared

Aetheris himself is not supposed to be alive at this point but is he truly normal, one should know even those who can adapt to death and the end would fall because in the abyss only permanence is absolute

"It seems like the beacon is getting closer, lets see what does overdrive mode do"muttered Aetheris as he selected the overdrive function

*BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM*

The circuitry lines within the Dyson sphere were no longer golden but Blue, the Dyson sphere easily handled constant acceleration from Mach 1, but the Mana stone was gradually losing its color, meaning the Mana was being siphoned at a rapid rate.

"Is that the… Beacon but… How, I guess it's faster than I expected" muttered Aetheris as he looked below and slowly stopped the Dyson sphere

Beneath him there is an altar that acted as a beacon, what he didn't know is that by running this journey would've had taken him months but the Dyson sphere reduced it to days.

"I think that altar is calling me" muttered Aetheris as looked at the Altar
