Infinite System Inheritor Return From The Abyss

Seojun arrived on the Ebon Isle, and as he approached, he noticed something unusual. All the demons and creatures on the island were lined up, making way for him.

The Hydra, now in its human-sized form, walked beside him. Seojun summoned Huno, his three-headed dog, to his side. The sight of the creatures bowing to him made Seojun mutter to himself, "What a weird lord."

As they approached the castle, two massive Cyclops stepped forward and opened the enormous doors with ease. Inside, a grand throne room awaited, A Massive being that shrink his size with the throne and now stood as tall as Seojun, but its dark, shadowy body made it seem far more terrifying. Its skin looked like black mist, shifting and moving as if it were alive.

A single sharp horn stuck out from its forehead, curving dangerously. Its glowing eyes burned with evil, and a chilling smile spread across its face. Even though it wasn't huge, a dark, heavy aura surrounded it, making the air feel cold and thick. Rising from the throne, it addressed Seojun with a booming voice.

"Welcome! Welcome, human!" The Abyss Lord declared. "It is a pleasure to finally meet you!"

Seojun stepped forward, his eyes scanning the throne room.

"I'm here to take the Realm back to Zyraena," he declared firmly. He tried to check the status of the lord, but an error message flashed before him, giving no information.

The lord's expression shifted as he processed Seojun's declaration. He slowly sat back down, signaling a nearby succubus to pour black wine into his enormous glass. With a smooth, practiced motion, he drank it all in one gulp.

"So, You're Zyraena's slave," the lord said, his tone dismissive.

Seojun's eyes narrowed. "No, I'm not." With that, he unsheathed his sword, its blade blazing with blue fire. Silla, the Hydra, and Huno, the Cerberus, grew to match the lord's massive size, preparing for the fight.

"Time to finish this," Seojun said seriously, launching into the attack.

As Seojun aimed to pierce the lord's forehead, a sudden, intense pain erupted in his head. He stumbled, his vision blurring. The lord, seemingly unfazed, waved a finger as if examining something with interest, nodding occasionally.

As Seojun lay on the ground, struggling against the searing pain in his head, he managed to finally appraise the massive lord. The system notification appeared before him, flashing with critical details.

Ding!

Seojun's eyes widened in shock. Blood trickled from his ears and mouth as he absorbed the gravity of the revelation. Grimzark wasn't just a powerful demon; he was a former god and a fallen brother of Goddess Zyraena.

As Seojun struggled with the intense pain, another system notification appeared,

[WARNING!]

[Mind Invasion Detected]

Skill Name: Mind Shroud

- Description: Lord Grimzark is using a powerful form of mind manipulation known as "Mind Shroud" to invade and distort your thoughts. This skill can cause severe disorientation and pain, making it difficult to focus and maintain control over your actions.

Silla, the Hydra, immediately moved in front of Seojun, its massive form creating a protective barrier. Huno, the three-headed dog, licked Seojun's face and whimpered anxiously, clearly worried for his well-being.

Seojun took a deep breath, closing his eyes to center himself. He focused on maintaining steady breathing, slowly calming his mind and pushing back against the invasive force. After a few moments, he opened his eyes, feeling more composed. He reached out to pet Huno, whose tail wagged in relief.

"I'm fine now," Seojun said softly to Huno. "This is the first time I've experienced something like this."

With renewed determination, he stood up and moved to Silla's side. As he did, Lord Grimzark's eyes widened in surprise and admiration. The massive being seemed genuinely impressed by Seojun's ability to handle the mental assault.

"Well, it looks like I underestimated you, human," Grimzark said with a smirk. "You've managed to endure my 'Mind Shroud' quite well. This should make things even more interesting."

Seojun faced Grimzark.

Lord Grimzark, still sitting on his massive throne, looked at Seojun with both curiosity and doubt. "How did you manage to resist my 'Mind Shroud'? It's not easy to fight off."

Seojun, calm and focused, replied, "I've been trapped here for 500 years, there's no way a mere skill of yours will bring me down"

Grimzark leaned back in his throne, clearly intrigued. "You've surprised me, human. I'm looking forward to seeing what else you can do."

As the tension arise Silla and Huno attack and Lord Grimzark casually waved his hand. In an instant, Silla the hydra and Huno the Cerberus were trapped inside a birdcage, hanging from the ceiling. The cage glowed with an eerie, magical light.

Seojun's eyes widened in shock. He tried to rush forward to attack Grimzark, but the lord suddenly shrank down to the size of an average human. Seojun halted, confused by the sudden change.

Grimzark, now floating in front of Seojun with a mischievous grin, said, "Why don't we have a chat, human? If you want to keep your companions alive, it's best we talk."

Seojun looked up, trying to unsummon Silla and Huno, but a warning message appeared:

[Warning! The cage is bound by a godly curse. It can only be opened by the one who created it.]

Seojun sighed and nodded. "Alright, let's talk."

Grimzark beamed with satisfaction. "Excellent! Follow me, human!"

Grimzark floated ahead, leading Seojun through the castle's winding corridors. Minutes later, they arrived at a room. As soon as the door closed behind them, Seojun was forced onto a bed, and Grimzark landed next to him with surprising agility.

"Now, human!" Grimzark said with a childlike excitement. "Tell me more about your memories, especially about pizza and cats!"

Seojun, still reeling from the bizarre turn of events, sat up and stared in confusion. Grimzark, now looking like a 15-year-old boy with a small horn in the middle of his forehead, appeared anything but fearsome. His terrifying appearance had transformed into that of an eager teenager.

"What's happening?" Seojun thought, bewildered by Grimzark's sudden change in demeanor and appearance.
