Chereads / Spawn of Nothingness / Chapter 3 - Chapter 3, Dream of Black [Edited]

Chapter 3 - Chapter 3, Dream of Black [Edited]

Dozens of clustered black stars that had strange white light were scattered everywhere around space

At a point where it made it seem like a center frizzled distortions kept distorting the space around it

From there an abyssmal creature of terrifying and spegatifying stature appeared

The space around it seemed to entirely warp and distort, smaller 'Things' of it broke apart like blobs

Tentacles in its body popped out from nowhere and spread crazily

*VRRRRRRAAAARRRnnnnn#%%^#^@^#*

A red eye popped out from the biggest side and looked straight there....

A somewhat imaginary wide smile that with complete oddity looked real came

"KRoNoSSS, I CaN sEE HE tOOk A LKING TO TYIU, i Am HUNGRY" 

-------

*Ahuh, Gahh, Huhhh, Hghhhh*

Kronos woke up gripping his head and tossing the blanket got up

Sunlight shone through a window while he put his shoes and clothes on

A pair of vans and cargo shorts as well as a shirt from the queen band

Since school didn't start yet for the past few days, his new parents or whatever gave him a phone and school supplies 

Drawings and different writings were on the wall that held complex meanings 

With heavy strides on his feet, he went to the kitchen and made some tea

His backpack was on the door and he picked it up slinging it onto his shoulder 

His 'parents' room was on the lower floor and that did help a lot especially with all the wall noises at night 

Surprisingly they didn't come out early most of the times

They didn't strike him as lazy but cheerful

whatever, he didn't really care much what they did with themselves 

The house wasn't that big and Kronos finishing some breakfast left 

High school sophomore year would start and although he was in college, he nearly forgot every math concept from High school 

The walk to the school was only about a few minutes away which was good

Class started at eight am and he arrived at the class by seven

[Diamond Ridge High School]

Taking his seat and setting his bag down a thought occurred to him 

'Let's see if this works' 

[ Shop - Knowlege 

Beginner Mathematics - 50

Advanced Mathematics - 100 

Expert Mathematics - 150

Mathematics Master - 160 ...]

The list of knowledge and information-based things in the shop went on forever 

Spotting something interesting, Kronos stopped scrolling and saw a good section

[Knowlege Packs

High School Level Mastery Knowlege - 200

College Level Mastery Knowlege - 300

Scholar Level Mastery Knowlege - 500

...]

Many different knowledge packs filled the screen as he clicked the category

Kronos though picked the high school pack as he did not need to waste points

He had other plans for the remaining points and that was to start his own monopoly of accessories and applications

'I have no shame on what I am doing, everything is for my own gain or survival' 

Clicking the first option a sudden immense pain erupted in his head and he fainted

An hour later dozens of students were already in the classroom 

"Hey, wake up" Kronos groggily woke up and rubbed his eyes as he lay his eyes on a girl who kept shaking him

She had neck length white hair and some cherry lipstick, her eyes were a stormy grey with a light glow to it

Did Kronos ever mention that he loved gray and black?

Her white hair seemed to flow like a river, her demeanor had a cold feel to it and she had this piercing gaze

The caucasian skin of hers captivated Kronos because it not only looked to be of a goddesses but had this roughness to it

What made her look even more like something out of a fantasy was this glow around her

"What's your name?" As Kronos said this the class was about to start and most were already seated

"Athena." Blinking as she said that Athena went to a desk with no chair and sighed

Kronos saw a blush for a moment on her face but he must have imagined it

'No way a girl likes of all people me, that name though ah whatever' 

The class started and the teacher gave a lesson and assigned homework 

The math was so easy for him, he completed the assigned material in a few minutes

The day went on with all the other classes and Kronos being new sat alone in a small corner for lunch

Lunch at school was a quick surprise to him as it was in the last period 

Makes sense since this is a book, everything here will be wack

'EMBRACE THE DARKNESS' Kronos's meditation in the corner of the food court garnered no attention as no one knew him 

As the densely packed and vibrant food cover filled with voices, no one noticed dust and dirt starting to go up around him

The lunch session was about forty minutes long and by then nearby the court trees shaked 

The roots and leaves shriveled up and then a force crushed the remaining trees to a flat stump

All this while Kronos still sitting had fists and was deeply concentrated 

Stopping and opening his eyes, he eased up and from his pack

He took out a pencil, a ruler, a calculator, and a graphing notebook

Drawing different things on the papers made his mind go wild and imagination let loose

His imagination for what he could do was endless and ever expanding

Mathematical equations and various of ways to solve and expand went into his mind

Kronos resolved to not use the system as much as he needed to and he would stick to it

"Don't mind me" Kronos saw a girl speak and saw her sit next to him which happened to be Athena

'Hm, what do we have here...' He had an idea of what was going on inside this teenage girl's head and he had no problem with it as he found her interesting as well

The girl Athena looked him in the eyes making her startled 

Kronos saw she was staring at him and coughed, he found her behavior strange as she couldn't have fallen for him so quickly 

He had never interacted with girls in his two lives so he had no expierence with this

What's more that made him doubt life, was that she barely knows anyone in this school as this is the first time seeing her

No friends were around her so she must have transfered so, why him?

"Why are your eyes so dangerous and..." Raising an eyebrow to her comment Kronos knew his eyes were all black and he did see something familiar in them, he didn't investigate further though

Athena sometimes would peek at what he was drawing or writing

The expressions of hers were difficult to read though

She scooted much closer to him without a care and to the surprise of him that she seemed fascinated and interested

How could he see her when he was also writing and drawing, well he was just that good

Kronos and Athena were there until the bell rang

Waving goodbye to her and getting home from school, he went to the kitchen and made some black tea

Tea went well with practically anything and Kronos drank it all in one gulp

Both of his parents were already at home and were in the couch talking

This made him a bit confused though as they told him that their jobs were demanding and had to work almost all-day

Walking to them and sitting down on one of the sofa chairs, he did see bags under their eyes

"Oh, hello Kronos, how is your day going?" Ellena spoke as she stopped talking to Aiden, she had a sweet expression and seemed genuinely curious

"It was fine. I think I have something to tell you guys" Both of them turned their attention to him and Kronos didn't like seeing them like this

These two people had given him someplace to start a new life and he wouldn't be ungrateful

'I think it's better to show them' 

Kronos instead of talking took several pieces of large furled graph paper out of

Unfurling them on the table in front and laying them down, he took out pencils and a few Sharpies 

"I am showing you the way to revolutionize this era and go to higher status" Kronos looked at them and saw that they were partly interested while also waiting in anticipation 

Elena and Aiden were both intrigued and curious by what he was presenting but also a bit doubtful 

These thoughts changed a few minutes later 

"I present to you, ACCENCO" Kronos unfurled another one that read Accenco and started to explain the other papers

The other papers had things that looked like a smaller computer to a head thing to many other phones 

He even took out notebooks that were filled in their entirety with writing each of them having different titles, other papers had pictures while some had mathematical and complex equations

Elena's and Aidens expressions rapidly changed from confusion to to intrigue then finally boiling excitement.

"I will be going into the navy either next year or the year after that, I will make Accenco a giant of the likes no one has seen, I will also send you money each month, just relax and let everything go in its place" Elena and Aiden were already astounded and excited but the second they heard that, a bomb shell erupted onto their brains

Their eyes widened and stared at him for quite some time before both of them with their baggy eyes, Laughed.

"Kronos, this may not be right, but we believe in you, if you want to do It like this we won't budge, because you are the son of us that will help guide us into this world" They both had serious faces on and nodded as they said that, rest of the time Kronos read them a book about a troubled boy....
