There is a boy who lives in a rundown apartment at Picklitt Street in the city of Dullsville.
He has a birthday today and is about to turn 18 years old.
His name is Maximilian Aeternus and for him, this is a very special day as he not only became a legal adult today but is about to awaken magical powers beyond imagination.
In a world, where resources are abundant and whose surface area is larger than earth by 10,000 times, Maximilian is a lonely soul who became an orphan on birth due to his mother dying bringing him into this world of Aurora.
So, he aches for familiar love while being generally nice to others, as he endures bone deep exhaustion while working multiple shifts a day with little rest, all so he could pass through the college that is about to start in a few months with little hiccup.
Currently, Max is waking up from sleep as golden hour glow of a summer morning is glazing over his resting figure. So, he starts stretching his body which is in a decent shape with his eyes still shut while lying on the bed.
As he opens his eyes, deep blue color in them is reflected by morning sunlight as his above average face with strong jawline morphs while letting out a strong yawn.
Deep seated tiredness settles on him as he thinks about how hectic his day going to be today, so he smiles wryly and says to himself:
"Happy birthday Maximilian, you can now buy beer, vote and elect shitty leaders or find yourself a sugar mommy legally."
Max sighs to himself and then perks up as he starts getting up from his creaky old twin bed.
While walking towards the bathroom, he continues:
"Just a couple more months and I'll be finally free from this place. Picklitt Street, more like Pickshit Street. Can't walk 10 steps in the neighborhood without encountering shitty situation, shitty individuals or straight up dog shit."
He arrives infront of a faded mirror in the bathroom as he continues his monologue:
"Even in such a shitty situation, there is a bright spot that glows brilliantly in this place. And who's that you ask?"
He smiles confidently and points to the figure of himself in the mirror with his index fingers of both hands while speaking:
"You are, Max. Yes you are. Who's going flip this world on its axis? You are, Max, Yes you are. Who's going to rock the world of countless beauties? You are, Max, Yes you are. And who's going to be an absolute legend? You are, Max, Yes You are."
After he's done hyping himself, he adopts a mock serious attitude while facing the mirror as he starts another monologue:
"I am the way into the city of woe, I am the way into eternal pain, I am the way to go among the lost."
He increases the pitch of his voice as he continues:
"I am in the silence between the beats of a dying star's heart. I am the reason the void has a name. I was when the first atom dreamed of being two, and I will be when the last light is swallowed by the consequence of its own creation."
And then he continues loudly by increasing the pitch again:
"And Before me there were no created things but those that last forever-as do I. Abandon all hope, for you who are about enter here..."
His voice has reached the fever pitch now and is reverberating across his whole apartment as he chants:
"For now you are in the presence, of the MOTHERFUCKING KING!"
Then he declares in a solemn voice:
"Maximilian Aeter--"
He is cutoff midway by a sudden electronic chime that resounded throughout his entire being as his vision goes blurry while seeing a digital window that pops infront of him which is a swirling mixture of golden, purple and silver colors.

[Awakening innate abilities]
Maximilian was so stupefied by what he was seeing that he thought he was hallucinating as he read the first notification. But when the second notification appeared, about innate abilities, he felt his body go numb as lost his balance while standing.
So he steadied himself by leaning on the wall beside the mirror.
At first, Max felt numb, but after a few more seconds he started feeling multitude of sensations all over his body like electric current crawling all over his insides, muscle pain, nerve pain, other sorts of pain, heat and soothing sensation.
These sensations started off mild but with each passing second, they increased exponentially. And after a few more moments, they became so much that Max collapsed on his knees and gave a silent soul wrenching scream as he couldn't even utter a voice to express himself.
After what felt like an eternity to Max, the sensations stopped and he collapsed into an unconscious state as he finally had some respite.
He woke up in a few hours by the sound of his phone's continuous ringing and when his thoughts became lucid enough, he bolted upright and went for his phone while exclaiming:
"Fuck, I'm late. Goddamn manager's gonna rip me a new one."
Max takes a deep breath to calm himself as he picks up the call:
"Hello, Goodmorning Sir"
His Manager at the supermarket, Mr. Brown replied in an unfriendly tone:
"Yeah Hello Max, where are you right now?"
To which Max replied while pondering:
"Umm right, Sir I had a medical emergency in the morning, so I'll be little late for my shift."
Then his manager spoke in a tone that showed his annoyance:
"Max you are supposed to give me an advanced notice if you're taking a day off or a half day. There are customers piling up at the cash register and Jacob alone can't handle it. Where is your sense of responsibility by showing this kind of work ethic?"
Max tries to maintain his calm by explaining:
"Sir, I fainted earlier in the morning and just now became conscious by you ringing my cell. Please do give me half an hour, I'll be there promptly."
Mr. Brown is properly irritated now:
"Young man do you think I am a fool? You definitely slept late last night and are now making these lame excuses thinking I'm a damn retard. You know what? Your pay is docked for the day, don't bother coming in today and be on time tomorrow."
He ends the call after that, without giving Max a chance to reply.
And Max blows off his top after being rebuffed as he screams into his smartphone:
"You motherfucking piece useless shit, I hope you get STDs after fucking your wife and you realize your wife is a filthy whore and your daughter gets gang banged by 10 wild black men with huge cocks and you find the video of her being railed on the internet."
After hurling a few more profanities at the clueless Mr. Brown, Max calms down somewhat and he focuses on what happened to him.
He realizes that his body has changed very much after he pays attention to this fact. He felt lighter, refreshed, stronger, his vision many times clearer, his thought process many times much smoother and he instantly remembered every minute detail of his life including the stuff he heard but not remembered before.
As Maximilian basked in the wonderful sensation of not feeling constant exhaustion, he clenches and unclenches his right first while exclaiming:
"Whoa... Is this real or do I have a neurological disorder?"
He walks to the mirror nearby and becomes enamored with himself as he marvels how handsome he has become. And he truly did became the definition of celestial beauty as any lady would devote herself just seeing his face.
Max observed his charming appearance as he noticed his eye color has changed from blue to silver with various swirling colors such as purple, golden, blue etc mixed in.
He then noticed his body is ripped with manly muscles as he raised his tank top to view his abdominal muscles. He whistled while admiring his 8 pack abs:
"Hot Damn, a full buffed 8 pack."
After he was done admiring himself, he remembered seeing a holographic screen before passing out, and so, as he thought about it, it appeared again in his field of vision.
