Dark world

Darkness!

That's all he could see as the only source of light was coming out of him, which was barely comparable to a cheap light bulb.

"Argh" he nagged as he got up trying to observe his surroundings, but it was completely useless as there was nothing but a full void of darkness making him feel as if he was staring into the abyss.

"Where the hell am I?" he asked himself as everything was very confusing to him, he was in his room using his phone but all of a sudden passed out and woke up later to find himself in this dark space.

While trying to figure out what the hell was happening to him, he felt an amount of pain he had never felt before as it felt like his mind was exploding in and recovering in his head just to blow up again.

The pain lasted for a few minutes but to him, it felt like a few hours.

Once the pain started to fade away, his brain was filled with new pieces of information that he has never learnt before.

"There's no way! Is that real? It can't be, It's too op" He shouted as his voice was filled with disbelief, After all, if these new pieces of information put into his brain are true, Then he might now have the power of a God.

Almost...

According to the new knowledge he has, This dark place is his spiritual world, as every living being has one (which its look depends on their affinity) that their souls go to after their death...

"So I'm dead huh?" he said while leaving out a sigh, but his face showed no emotions because his life wasn't that great anyways, He was your regular introvert, he spent every minute of his day using his phone, and although he had a family he wasn't that attached to them...

Overall, he had a pretty boring life, with no real attachments to his world, nor a real purpose to his life.

But now, now it's different, with this new power of his, he can rule the entire world if not the universe .....

Although he can't be too reckless as his power isn't ultimate and does have its weak points.

Cause the thing is his ability allows him to create anything he can think of with enough details as long as it's not a living being, but it uses a lot of energy called the soul and mind energy/ essence...

Mind energy and soul energy are two different types of energy that every human has in different percentages, and when used together can do many things including what his ability does.

The amount of either soul or mind energy a person has is determined by many things such as the strength of will and/or beliefs, way of thinking, and many other things.

As for how to enlarge his pool of energy (the amount of energy his body can take in), it can be done in a few ways, but all ways take a lot of time as they need to have a direct change in the user's mind and/or soul.

One of the ways is to create the same thing over and over again hundreds of times, but this way is inefficient as it takes a lot of time for very little progress.

Another way is to have a big change in the mind, such as a change in beliefs or way of thinking, which is the best way to get a bigger pool as it gives a lot of progress, but needs some time as well.

Something else he got is the ability to create portals although he doesn't have many details of the way they work...

"Huuh, I'm going to be here for a while, I better start getting stronger or I'll never be able to get out of here "Thinking about staying in this dark space for years gave him goosebumps as he started to train immediately so he wouldn't stay here for any longer than he needs.

*******

10 years later...

In a dark space where any normal human would lose his mind if they stayed for longer than a day, a black-haired kid was found doing weird movements with his hands, as anyone looking at him would describe him as crazy, but he suddenly stopped and out of nowhere ...

*Tap

A book appeared right in front of him, which he grabbed as it was falling to the ground.

Creating things like books and games that he remembers from Earth allowed him to stay sane and relaxed over the past 10 years, alongside the changes his soul and mind got after enlarging his pool which made his sanity stronger and more flexible.

But although his mental health was getting stronger due to the training and increase in his mind energy, he was still unable to keep up with the madness this dark space and loneliness brings to the human mind as he was slowly losing his mind.

But hopefully, he won't be staying here for much longer as for the fact he was on the edge of a breakthrough, and once he achieves it, he will finally be able to create a portal to get the hell out of this place.

After a few hours he was sitting in a meditation position with his eyes closed, around him, objects were appearing and disappearing in a matter of seconds as he wasn't putting much effort into making them which is why they didn't last long, he was about to break through as he needed just a few more objects to create.

As he was creating objects he was trying to sense every little change in his energies as he could see the red small circles which represent the mind energy as well as the blue ones which represent the soul energy.

After creating a couple more objects he was able to detect a tiny detail in the red and blue circles, as they were getting darker and darker.

Eventually, when all the circles changed to a darker colour, the boy opened his eyes with a great smile on his face as he said...

"Finally, I can leave this f*cking dark space!"

he was so excited he instantly went to work and started the process to open the portal...

But even after finishing the process, nothing happened.

"Did I do something wrong?" he asked himself as a frown formed on his face.

But even after repeating it a couple of times all he was met with was complete silence.

At that moment his blood ran cold as he realized a shocking truth...

"I'm stuck !!!"
