Infinite System Inheritor Return From The Abyss

Chapter 71: Chapter 71: He's Back

Suddenly, a strange sensation surged through him. It was warm, almost comforting. He felt an energy coursing through him, something that hadn't been there before. A green light began to emanate from his chest, spreading across his entire body. His strength returned in waves, but his limbs remained gone. The world around him seemed to slow down as the green light enveloped him completely.

"What... what is this?" he whispered, feeling the light growing brighter and more intense.

In the midst of his confusion, he noticed the healer. She had come back? She was crying. "W-Why?" he managed to ask, his voice barely audible.

She shook her head, tears streaming down her face. "I'm sorry... I'm so sorry..." she sobbed, her voice filled with guilt and despair.

Before he could comprehend her words, the minotaur let out a deafening roar, raising its axe once more. He saw the fear in her eyes, and Jin-hyu stepped in front of them, spreading his arms. The minotaur's axe descended, and he knew this was the end.

"F-Fucking dumb-bass," he whispered, cursing under his breath as he braced for the inevitable.

But just as the minotaur's axe was about to strike, a blinding light appeared above its head. The light was pure and radiant, illuminating the entire cavern. Something fell from the light with incredible speed, crashing into the minotaur with a force that shook the ground.

The minotaur let out a final, agonized roar before collapsing under the weight of whatever had struck it. The light began to fade, and he could barely make out the shape of a massive object embedded in the creature's skull.

His strength returned, and he could move again. He struggled to sit up, his body still aching from the ordeal. He looked around, trying to understand what had just happened.

The healer was on her knees, her hands trembling as she stared at the fallen minotaur. "What... what was that?" she whispered, her voice trembling with fear.

He had no answer. All he knew was that he was still alive, and somehow, that light had saved them.

As he looked at the fallen minotaur, he couldn't help but wonder what kind of power had just been unleashed. But for now, all he cared about was having another chance to see his sister again.

Thick smoke filled the air, making it hard to see. His heart raced, and he could barely breathe. He was lying on the cold, hard ground, his body shaking with fear. His arms and legs were gone, but the pain had turned into a dull ache. He knew he was in bad shape.

As the smoke cleared, he heard a voice—a soft, confused voice—coming from nearby. He squinted through the haze and saw a young man standing in the middle of the blood-stained ground. The man looked shocked, as if he didn't know where he was or how he got there. Blood was everywhere, but none of it seemed to be his.

"I'm… back?" the young man whispered, his voice trembling. He looked around, taking in the destruction, his eyes wide with confusion. Then he looked at them, and something changed. His gaze was intense, almost terrifying.

Suddenly, a powerful aura surrounded him, pressing down on them like a heavy weight. It felt like the air was being squeezed out of the cave, replaced by this dark, scary energy. They could hardly breathe, and their bodies wouldn't move. The aura was too strong, too much to handle. Their skin tingled with fear.

The healer, who had been crying, quickly moved and cast a protective barrier around them. The shield shimmered, but it wasn't strong enough to block out the young man's aura completely.

"We have to get out of here!" she whispered, her voice shaking with fear. But none of them moved. They were too scared, too frozen by the thought that this man could destroy them all in an instant.

He closed his eyes, his breath shallow. He thought he was going to die. "I'm sorry, Sister… it looks like this is the end for us."

But then, the heavy aura suddenly disappeared. The air felt lighter, and he slowly opened his eyes. The young man was still there, but now he looked concerned, not angry. He was staring at him, his brow furrowed as if he didn't understand why he was lying there, broken and helpless.

The young man raised his hand, and he flinched, shutting his eyes tight. He thought he was going to be killed. But instead, he heard Jin-hyu's voice.

"Your legs… and arms…" Jin-hyu said, sounding shocked.

He opened his eyes, hardly believing what he was seeing. His arms and legs were growing back, right in front of him. His body was healing, as if nothing had ever happened.

He looked at the young man, stunned, and whispered, "H-How…?"

The healer and Jin-hyu were also staring at the young man who had just healed him. His arms and legs were back, but he was still in shock. How could this be? Only the Gods had this kind of healing skill. The healer and Jin-hyu were trembling. Suddenly, they both dropped to their knees, looking terrified.

"Please don't kill us!" they shouted together, their voices echoing in the cave. They looked up at the man, begging for their lives.

But the young man didn't seem to care. He stood there calmly, as if their pleas didn't matter. He looked around, lost in thought, and then asked, "Where is this?"

They were confused. The healer, still on her knees, was the first to speak. She helped him stand up, her hands shaking. Jin-hyu quickly moved to help too, and they both held him up.

"This is the boss room of an A-rank dungeon," the healer said softly, her voice shaky. Why was he asking something so simple? Didn't he know where he was?

"Let's get out of here," she whispered to them, fear in her eyes. She started to move away slowly, signaling them to follow her.

But before they could take a few steps, everything around them blurred. Suddenly, they weren't moving away anymore. They were standing right in front of the young man again, as if they had been teleported.

The young man looked at them with a calm expression.

His heart raced, and he could feel the fear from the healer and Jin-hyu. There was no escape. They were trapped. Was this how they were going to die?
