Chapter 2 - Abbadon?

As Kotaro ran out of the room and bashed through the front door, Kotaro felt that nothing was right, everyone acted strange, the kind eldelry woman that was always sitting in the balcony wasn't there, the dog that always barked when he leaves the house didn't bark at all, the air felt strange, he didn't know what was happening.

''Abbadon...'' Kotaro said quietly on accident.

He didn't know why he said that nor what was that name, then he realised that he didn't remember anything that happened in the past 3 months, everything was blurry in his mind, he was very confused and tried to remember as hard as he could. He realised, Abbadon, the necklace, the conversation he had with Abbadon, all the information struck his mind, he was dazed and he heard someone saying something.

''Oops, sorry for that my friend.'' Said a teenager after bumping into Kotaro while dropping a necklace.

''Hey! Wait a moment, you dropped someth-'' Kotaro yelled right before falling to the ground while a bright light was shining in front of him.

A big bucket of ice cold water fell on Koharu's head waking him up, he didn't know where he was, it was an empty space, he looked around a bit and thought.

''Is this the afterlife? and are you the god of this world?'' Kotaro asked to the person he had infront.

''Finally, you're awake and it looks like you don't remember anything, let me explain why are you here and who I am, just give me a second.'' Said Abbadon while holding a book in his hands.

Kotaro looked at Abbadon, an handsome man that had crimson eyes, his skin was as white as the snow, short black hair and he was wearing a dark blue traditional yukata. Abbadon was immersed in the book he was reading but Kotaro noticed something strange, the title of the book was his name and the cover contained his portrait, he was utterly shocked and in disbelief. After 20 minutes Abbadon closed the book right before looking at Kotaro, he let out a little smirk while getting close to Kotaro.

''I shall introduce myself once again, I am Abbadon, the creature living in thy necklace, you might wonder why are you here, so let me explain. This place is thy own mind space, you are here due to thy petition towards me to help you and the reality you were living right before waking up, was just a mere illusion created by thy own mind. I am here to help a poor soul be able to make it's dream come true, so go ahead and tell me what do you want.'' Abbadon said with a very calm and sophisticated voice.

...

Kotaro was silent, almost like he had his mouth blocked by some mysterious force, he couldn't believe what was standing infront of him.

''Is he a deity? an angel? a demon? a creature from another dimension? just who is him?'' Kotaro thought to himself.

Kotaro's head was filled with questions, after realising what just happened, he couldn't believe anything, he thought it was a dream, an illusion. All the questions dissapeared, his mind was in peace, it was like magic, his head just calmed down out of nowhere and then he could finally answer Abbadon's question.

''I want revenge towards all the people that made my life impossible.'' Said Kotaro with a clearly angry expression.

''I see, you must have suffered during thy lifetime, I will help you get thy own revenge, just deposit all thy faith in me and I will make all thy dreams come true.'' Said Abbadon while his little smirk was getting bigger and bigger.

''I will accept your proposal, so please help me Abbadon.'' Said Kotaro with deep determination in his eyes.

''I can see thy determination, I will give you a special power that will help you go through thy journey, just keep in mind that it will not be easy, you will suffer, lose important people if you do not make the right choices.'' Said Abbadon 

After the words were spoken, Abbadon started reciting some words in an ancient language and Kotaro fell to the ground just to wake up in the same room he was in 20 years ago right before entering the tower as a challenger.
