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. ...

Using Ergokinesis on a greater scale

"How many hours have I been running, although I am not tired, I can't keep on running like this" sighed Aetheris as he halted his feet

From his perspective, he has been running for hours without stopping but what he doesn't know is that he has been running for 3 weeks nonstop

"I've been dragging it, but this is a chance to explore some of my abilities, I guess I should do phase one of that"

He closed his eyes as small particles of blue light were released by his palms and slowly entered the sand, with a focused mind, he reached out to the sand using Ergokinesis.

Ergokinesis easily allowed him to project the energy into the sand and manipulate the sand to swirl around him in a vortex of movement

As the sand swirled faster, it began to take on a life of its own, forming into a massive sphere that enveloped Aetheris,The sphere grew larger and larger, until it was a towering behemoth of sand and energy.

Aetheris stood in the middle of the sphere with awe and amazement

The sphere was perfectly round and smooth in terms of texture, from outside one might see a 360 degrees perfect sphere, but it was more than that.

"It's quite plain, but without instructions or Remiel all I have is time" muttered Aetheris as he looked at the interior of the sphere

The idea of having abilities and not fully utilizing, understanding and comprehending them didn't sit well with him.

The better the understanding he has truly towards his abilities, the better are their usage and possibilities of evolving

"It needs a constant power source and energy output, I can't move to phase 2 without fully understanding phase 1"

Aetheris took out a small chunk of a glowing mineral ore in order to consume it, the idea was that his threads would gain the properties he needs for phase 2.

*Crunch Crunch Crunch Crunch Crunch*

"Ahhh~ that rejuvenating feeling again, it tastes so exquisite for metal" commented Aetheris as he felt ecstasy

He felt something profound happening in his body, the mineral ore was being extracted and broken down to assimilate with his threads.

"I don't know when the process will be done, and I can't even calculate it since it's my first time doing it, but I should focus on the sphere while I wait"

"Hmmmmmmm, Rise"

The sphere obeyed his command as it began to float, a small pillar with a smaller sphere that had 10 small holes for claws appeared at the center as it rose from the ground

His small dark Crimson claws were on full display as he approached the central pillar due to the idea of feeding the sphere Mana using his claws.

Many might ask countless questions such as how could he use Ergokinesis effortlessly in this manner for the first time, well, the answer is simple… it's a Racial trait.

Dragons are sensitive to Energy, but this is different depending on their kind and bloodline purity and Aetheris is on a different level

Using Ergokinesis and Manipulating Mana becomes easy as breathing to him, and he can visualize what he wants to create before he even does it.

"I should start slowly and increase the output gradually" muttered Aetheris as he inserted his claws into the central pillar

Mana flowed from his nails and into the sphere, which strength the durability of the sphere and gave it the ability to slowly move forward.

Aetheris did a small gesture and the sphere slowly opened a window with a barrier that is see through.

"Now…, I wonder how much fractures can it endure"

The sphere slowly started to accelerate as it moved forward however it maintained constant acceleration

The was no tool for calculating its speed hence why Aetheris was constantly running countless simulations and calculations in his head.

Thought Acceleration and Cognitive calculation allowed him to perform this feat effortlessly

The design of the sphere is crude and barbaric, it comes with no refined features and its functions are severely limited in many ways.

Therefore, Aetheris did not only run the simulations for calculating the speed of his sphere… No… The Dyson sphere furthermore, he was looking for alternative ways of improving it constantly.

"The Dyson sphere 1.0 can easily handle constant acceleration, if my calculations are correct, it is… we are currently at 0.99 Mach while covering 339.57 meters per second or something similar… Let's dose it up" smiled Aetheris as his eyes glimmered with excitement.

The young dragon is courting death to the extreme, the Dyson sphere has no protective barrier or Force since it is only a 1.0 version, but the point of him creating a 2.0 version is to see the flaws of the first one and how could he improve them.

Aetheris's Mana reserves are massive and since he's awakening they will expand to a greater degree, Aetheris began to infuse all of his Mana into the Dyson sphere to see its full speed and what it can endure

*BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM*

The Dyson sphere broke the sound barrier and maintained a constant increase in speed, however sounds of something breaking were heard by Aetheris

"What the hell…it seems like my theory was right" muttered Aetheris as he observed the sphere

There were cracks inside the sphere forming webs, the Dyson sphere was breaking apart due to Mana overload and poor structural formation.

"Normal sand would have crystallized by now or turned into glass, this sand doesn't just absorb heat it does much more…

The Dyson sphere can't handle the pressure of constant acceleration because it has no protective barrier or Force but if I improve the formation of the structure…yes that's it

The sand is also quite special, I need to collect some in my inventory and have Remiel appraise it properties… Ohhh, it seems like I have absorbed the Mineral ore"

Aetheris soon slowed down and stopped the sphere, his plan was to recreate the sphere and improve it.
