"Before the very concept of time began its inexorable march, and before the cosmos swirled into being from the void, there existed an absolute and utter nothingness. Yet, even that profound nothingness was not the first state; it was merely the silence that followed the primordial age of gods and monsters".
"Before time, there was only the Primordial Maelstrom—a chaotic abyss of formless, warring titans, gods and fiends. Through an impossible act of chance, these beings reached a single, fleeting consensus. That agreement became the Law of Reality, and from it, the Multiverse was spoken into being. As the ancient texts reveals, this means our cosmos is not a physical thing, but a thought—a fragile, shared hallucination agreed upon by all conscious life. We do not live in the universe; the universe lives because of us. Our perception is the anchor that holds reality fast, and the proof of our true nature: an immortal soul, a fragment of the original chaos, dreaming a stable world into existence!". Ariel the teacher explained with a burning passion "Any questions?"
What followed was an abject silence that reigned through out the room which left Ariel the teacher dumbfounded.
"Huh??". Scouting the room to try and find the reason for the silence Ariel caught sight of the one and only student she was teaching sleeping like a dead man during the lecture.
"MARK!!, MARK!!, Wake up you son of a bitch!!!". Ariel shouted out of rage and frustration, following that she lightly threw her marker and the speed generated was surprisingly so fast that it could be mistaken for a bullet.
BANG!
"OUCH!!". A shriek resounded in the area, a testament that the projectile reached its target and it was so loud that the servants and guards nearby turned their heads towards the source of the sound but some shook their heads and others started snickering, obviously this wasn't the first time something like this has occurred.
"Arghhh, what the hell my head hurts". Marks dreams of beautiful,naked, big titty, fat ass, women, falling out of the sky got shattered instantly. "Quit your whining and get up immediately dumb ass". Which he was trying to do but as he stood up he met the infuriated gaze of his mentor and he could only describe it one word 'cute' but he wasn't to be blamed, she indeed looked for a better lack of words 'cute' at the moment but that clearly didn't come close to doing her justice because she was looked otherworldly to say the least.
She had golden eyes that was reminiscent of the sun with long lashes, a cute button nose, full luscious lips with lipgloss on them that made them look tantalizing coupled with her oval face shape and soft features she could easily mistaken for a goddess and standing at the height of 5'4 ft with incredible curves, a nice rounded butt and mid sized breasts she had a fit physique which was easily noticable from the formal skirt and long sleeved shirt she wore. Her ebony skin shone with an incredible radiance and her short pitch black hair being style to a finger curl pixie cut fit her perfectly. Overall most would describe her as a goddess of their dreams but Mark only saw her a monster from the depths of hell.
"Alright, alright I'm up" Mark said while adjusting the chair "no need to turn to a demon". He said in an almost inaudible tone.
"Did you say something you little imp?" Ariel asked with her eyebrows raised. "Nothing, nothing " Mark replied while adjusting his chair
" So you dared sleep during my lectures huh?, Where you even able to comprehend a single thing I was saying?!". Ariel asked while massaging her temples.
Mark thought with his hand on his chin, looking rather silly as he tried to process the question and then he replied" Of course I do".
"You know what?, As this is gonna be our final class I don't really care but if you're gonna learn anything from this class it's the Multiverse is a Consensus Reality shared by the Minds of all Sentient Beings. If they were to Die, the Multiverse, as such, would suddenly blink out of existence, vanish, be no more."
"Why?" Mark asked genuinely interested for once.
"Cause", said Ariel, "they'll be no one to perceive it". Mark nodded while contemplating on the gravity of her words.
Seeing Mark nod his head, Ariel sighed and spoke "Look Mark, we've come a long way. I've thought you everything you need to know from now and honestly I have to say I'm impressed, although you're lazy, goofy and dumb at times I'm still proud that an imp like you can evolve out of your natural instincts and become something better".
"Thank you I guess". Mark scratching his head seemingly confused of he should be happy about the complement or mad that he was just insulting but he just shrugged. As usual.
Knock-knock
Before he could think of a reply the door creaked under the gentle knock. "Come in" Ariel said inviting the visitor into the room.
"Good day young miss and young master, the mistress has sent me to inform you that dinner would be ready by 7" the brown skinned maid with a pretty face said while bowing.
" It's alright selia you can leave". Ariel replied with a slight smile all the while Mark was picking his nose daydreaming. "I'll take my leave then". Selia said before turning around and walking out of the room with calculated steps.
" Imp, I guess I'll see you later, go get ready for dinner". Ariel said with a tired voice.
" Alright see you later aunt Ariel". Mark said already bolting out the door to go to his room. Seeing Mark's behavior, Ariel just giggled reminiscing of the 5 yrs her and beloved student have spent together while she was training him.
' I hope you live up to expectations imp '. Ariel thought while walking out the room.
