Ch-1: The Time Weaver's Awakening

Darkness shrouded the ancient forest as the moon cast eerie shadows on the gnarled trees. A gust of wind whispered through the leaves, carrying a faint scent of decay. In the heart of the woods, a small clearing beckoned, bathed in an otherworldly glow.

A figure emerged from the shadows, a boy named Ethan. With unkempt raven hair and emerald eyes, he possessed an air of mystery. Unbeknownst to him, he carried the bloodline of a demigod, a legacy intertwined with time itself. He was the son of Kronos, the lord of time, a secret hidden from him until now.

Ethan's mind swirled with questions as he gazed at the radiant portal that stood before him. It pulsated with an ethereal energy, drawing him closer. With hesitant steps, he approached the shimmering gateway and hesitated before crossing over.

As he passed through, reality shifted around him, and he found himself in a realm unlike any he had ever imagined. The celestial bodies loomed overhead, creating a breathtaking vista. He had entered the upper planetary system, the domain of demigods and angels.

A voice echoed in Ethan's mind, resonating with ancient power. "Welcome, child of time. You have awakened your true heritage." It was Kronos, his father, speaking from the depths of his being.

Ethan's heart pounded as he tried to process the enormity of his newfound identity. He was a demigod, a being born of mortal and divine blood. Awe and uncertainty coursed through his veins, but the stirring of destiny pushed him forward.

The celestial realm was not all beauty and harmony. It too harbored dangers and threats. Monstrous creatures, born of mythology and nightmares, lurked within the shadows. From the darkest corners, creatures such as goblins, orcs, and dragons emerged, ready to unleash their terror upon the realm.

Ethan clenched his fists, feeling a surge of determination. The time loop ability, dormant within him until now, beckoned to be unleashed. With a focused mind and a simple gesture, he wove a complex pattern in the air. Time responded to his call, folding in upon itself.

The world around Ethan blurred, and he found himself standing amidst a gruesome battle. Blood-soaked soil, mangled bodies, and the stench of death filled the air. His heart raced as he realised he had travelled to a fierce battleground on Earth, where humans clashed with monstrous foes.

Sword in hand, Ethan sprang into action, his body moving with an uncanny grace. His demigod heritage gifted him with enhanced speed, strength, and agility. With each swing of his blade, he carved a path through the enemies, his strikes fueled by a newfound power.

Gore splattered across his armour as he fought valiantly, his every move a testament to his latent potential. The creatures he faced were formidable, their snarls and roars echoing in his ears. But Ethan's time loop ability granted him an advantage; he could rewind time, learning from each encounter and perfecting his combat prowess.

As the battle raged on, the ground trembled beneath Ethan's feet. The demons, denizens of the lower planetary system, had caught wind of his emergence. They sought to claim the Earth, using their dark powers to bend humans to their will. The divine angels and demigods rallied to protect the fragile balance.

With a roar, a massive demon surged forward, its twisted visage contorting with malice. Flames danced in its eyes as it launched an onslaught of dark magic. Ethan braced himself, his body aflame with determination.
