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 bond between a Mother and a Son

"It seems like his awakening has finished its final run" chuckled Triny as she sipped tea

The time dilation between the Formless Absolute Eternal Void and Soleil is extremely vast and unpredictable

The time Aetheris spent in the Formless Absolute Eternal Void can be classified as months, but from his perspective he spent weeks in the abyss

A normal human would have noticed the difference but Aetheris perceives time differently and this applies to others who have long lifespans as well

"What kind of awakening takes this long" muttered Yuuki as she placed food on the table

Three weeks have passed since Aetheris's awakening from their perspective; therefore, Trinity suggested that Yuuki must make him a' snack 'to satisfy his hunger.

Trinity was in the dining hall of the Luminous church, at first, she was listening to Sebastian who told her every tale of how amazing his young master is and how he is the most beloved devote but just an hour ago, the cat simply left in a hurry.

The door of the dining hall slowly opened as two people walked in, Trinity saw Aetheris carrying a cat that had a prideful expression on its face.

Trinity noticed the changes of his appearance, he grew taller and became more charming in terms of appearance.

His features were more refined than before, his hair looked more beautiful and otherworldly, meaning his nobility and charm were amplified even more.

Previously, Aetheris looked as if he was a nine-year-old, but now he looks thirteen and the abs he desired the most were slowly showing and forming.

Two small horns proudly protruded from his head, his eyes had slight streaks of Crimson purple lines similar to the odd color of his blood.

Aetheris's body was constantly releasing a golden maroon Aura which he didn't notice, but Trinity easily felt it and 'saw' it.

"What is it moth-godmother"Aetheris asked, correcting his manner of speech.

"Nothing, come here and let mother see your horns" suggested Triny with a tone of excitement, although Aetheris fixed his manner of speech, Triny still heard the true meaning of his words

"NO"

The atmosphere within the dining hall grew tense, much like how vampires are sensitive with their necks some Dragons share the same sensitivity regarding their horns.

Their horns represent their pride, therefore no one can simply touch them except for those who they completely trust and consider as family

Triny simply felt disappointed by his answer, the golden crimson horns of Aetheris were alluring and charming, therefore his handsomeness that he considers a sin is greatly magnified

"Go, I'll feed you some Tuna later" suggested Aetheris as he looked at the cat, hearing his young master's words, Sebastian simply left with a smug smirk

Aetheris slowly approached the table and sat beside Triny, his head rested on her lap as he looked aside

"You can touch them" sighed Aetheris with a tone of defeat

Triny touched the horns and felt their texture, she felt their composition, and she realized… These are simply not just horns, however they are weapons.

"Mother I have a problem, I can't control my strength… what should I do" inquired Aetheris as he looked into Triny's eyes

Triny simply revealed an enchanting and breathtaking smile as she heard him call her mother.

"You have indeed grown stronger, you may not have noticed but when you suppress your horns you greatly suppress your strength, but that is not a permanent solution" suggested Triny as she informed Aetheris

The suppression of his horns is actually a limiter, Aetheris wanted to feel some normalcy so much that he suppressed his dragon heritage.

"Of course there is always a way to attain permeance... through training and control"

The way to adjust to new changes is to train and adapt, this method allows you to exploit the environment of those changes

"Your training will begin tomorrow, it will be brutal and excruciating

You will break a limb or two, you will want to give up, but you will be punished if you try, but no matter how many times you break mother will be there to console you…Kyaaaaaaa~ isn't mother sweet and benevolent, "questioned Triny with a prideful smirk.

Aetheris felt sweat dripping down his face, from his experience only masochist behave in such a manner and as a slightly sadistic individual he understood the mentality of pain junkies

"M-mother are you mentally okay?, I don't mean that you are crazy "inquired Aetheris with a stutter, from his experience, things never end well when you call a woman crazy

"TSK, I have been asked that question so many times it actually irritated me to the point of wanting to snap someone's neck"

Aetheris simply gulped as he heard her response, the memory of her calling his killing intent 'cute' resurfaced immediately

Aetheris slowly approached something similar to bread, its texture was so soft that it crumbled in his arms

"Are you avoiding me" questioned Triny as she slightly tilted her head.

"N-no of course not, I am just curious about this cuisine" quickly replied Aetheris as he ate the bread

Aetheris usually scales people based on their actions and body language and calculates how to accurately interact with these individuals, but what scares him about Triny is that… she's unpredictable

"These were made from the best ingredients from the Luminous church, even some nobles can dine like this once in every decade, so you will finish it all and leave no crumb… Ok" spoke Triny with a smile that was not so friendly.

"But…"

"O.K.A.Y" replied Triny as she emphasized her words carefully

"It's not like I requested any of these meals but since you insist, and they come from a good place, I'll eat them" replied Aetheris as he tried to act as if he's doing her a favour while not trying to admit defeat.

"Anyway mother who's going to train me"inquired Aetheris as he shamelessly ate at a rapid pace while completely forgetting about his initial decline, the food is that good.

"You will be trained by Yuuki of course"
