Infinite System Inheritor Return From The Abyss

Before he could react, Alexa jumped on him with a loud, excited squeal.

"Seojun!" she shouted, her arms flinging around his neck. The sudden impact knocked him off balance, and they both tumbled to the ground, Alexa landing on top of him.

"Oof!" Seojun grunted as he hit the floor, Seojun blinked in confusion as Alexa\'s sudden tears began to fall. "Alexa?! What the—"

Before he could finish, Alexa started sobbing, her arms still wrapped tightly around him. "Thank you, Seojun! Thank you so much for breaking our curse!" she cried, her voice breaking with emotion. She kept repeating her thanks, her grip on him not loosening in the slightest.

Alex walked in through the open door, a relieved smile on his face. "Yeah, man, you really did us a huge favor," he added.

Seojun, still flat on his back with Alexa crying on top of him, frowned. "Stop crying, you look ugly," he muttered, trying to hide his awkwardness.

Alexa gasped dramatically, giving his chest a light slap. "You\'re so mean!" she pouted, wiping her tears with the back of her hand.

Seojun pushed himself up, gently nudging Alexa to stand. As he got to his feet, he glanced at the clock on the wall. It was just 6 a.m. He groaned, running a hand through his hair. "Couldn\'t this have waited until later?" he sighed.

Alex laughed, amused by the whole scene, while Alexa crossed her arms, still pouting. "How cold, Seojun!" she teased,

Seojun rolled his eyes, "Yeah, yeah... whatever."

Seojun dragged himself back to his bed, collapsing onto the mattress with a heavy sigh. "Wake me up later," he mumbled, already pulling his blanket over his head, shutting out the morning light.

"Hey! Don\'t sleep again!" Alexa protested, stepping closer to his bed. "Tell us what happened last night! Seojun!" she shouted, but Seojun\'s breathing had already settled into a slow, steady rhythm. He was out cold.

Alex chuckled, placing a hand on Alexa\'s shoulder. "Let him sleep, Alexa," he said gently. "He\'s probably exhausted. He\'ll tell us everything later."

Alexa pouted, clearly frustrated but nodded reluctantly. "Fine, but he better explain everything when he wakes up," she grumbled, crossing her arms.

Several hours passed. Alexa and Alex waited patiently, occasionally glancing over at the still-sleeping figure of Seojun. Finally, Seojun stirred, blinking against the sunlight filtering through the window. He stretched, yawning as he sat up.

"Good, you\'re awake," Alex greeted with a grin. "Now, about last night..."

Ignoring the eager looks from Alexa and Alex. He glanced around, spotting a small table with a spread of food. Without a word, he walked over, sat down, and began eating hungrily.

"Hey! I\'m talking to you!" Alexa snapped, her voice filled with impatience.

Seojun, mouth full of food, simply pointed to his lips as he continued chewing. Alexa fumed, tapping her foot in irritation, while Alex chuckled at the scene, trying to stifle his laughter.

"You!" Alexa shot a glare at him, clearly annoyed.

Alex smiled and walked over to Seojun, handing him a glass of water. "Here, drink up," he said calmly. Seojun nodded in thanks, gulping down the water before diving back into the food. Alex joined him at the table, grabbing a plate.

"Seriously, Seojun..." Alexa muttered, rolling her eyes but finally taking a seat herself, reluctantly waiting for him to finish.

As Seojun continued to eat, Alex glanced at him and asked, "So, when should we head to US?"

Seojun took a long sip of water, then replied between bites, "Now."

Alexa, frustrated by Seojun\'s lack of engagement, shot him an exasperated look. "We need to talk first!"

Seojun, unfazed, continued spooning food into his mouth, clearly ignoring her.

Alex chuckled at the interaction. "I\'ll go prepare for our departure," he said, grabbing his phone and heading out of the room. The cool morning air greeted him as he stepped outside.

Alexa glared daggers at Seojun, but he remained oblivious, focusing entirely on his meal. His relaxed demeanor only seemed to irritate her further.

After a few moments, Alexa sighed heavily,

"I have too many questions for you," Alexa pressed on. "What happened while we were unconscious? How did you break our curse? Do you know that the deities are looking for you? You\'re lucky we decided to keep it a secret."

Seojun remained silent "And where is that skyland now? It\'s not in its usual area."

Seojun finished his mouthful of food, finally setting his spoon down.

"Just what happened to you, Seojun?" she added.

Alex returned to the room, having made the necessary preparations for their departure. He looked at Seojun, who had finally finished his meal and was placing his plates in the dishwasher. Alexa, still fuming from the unanswered questions, had given up, her frustration giving way to resignation.

Alex cleared his throat and addressed the group. "It\'s seems like Grandpa also wants us to collect some items from the Mystic Union."

"Oh, wow, really? That\'s great!" Alexa responded, her interest piqued. Her frustration seemed to dissipate.

Alex turned to Seojun. "Is that okay with you, Seojun? We\'re heading to the Mystic Union Guild first."

Seojun, still focused on tidying up, nodded. "Yeah."

Alex continued, "The helicopter will arrive in 30 minutes, so you should bring some clothes. We might be staying there for a few days."

Seojun acknowledged the information with a nod.

On the rooftop, Chairman Alexander stood alone, watching as the helicopter carrying Seojun and his grandchildren faded into the distance.

A voice, resonating with a godly timbre, broke the silence. "Alexander."

Alexander turned, recognizing the voice of the goddess he often spoke with. "Goddess" he replied, his tone respectful.

The goddess\'s voice echoed softly, as though carried by the wind. "It seems you\'re deep in thought. What troubles you?"

Alexander sighed. "It\'s nothing, Goddess. I was just wondering why you\'re concerned about the human who made an altar last night."

The goddess\'s response was calm and deliberate. "There is a reason why creating altars has become forbidden. Making an altar requires immense amounts of mana, beyond what even the chosen of Zeus could provide, especially without guidance from the gods or goddesses."

Alexander\'s frown deepened. "And?"

The goddess continued, "The process of becoming a god has changed. The first step now involves making an altar. So, whoever performed this act last night has taken their first step toward divinity."

She paused, her voice taking on a more urgent tone. "We must find this human and protect them from the greedy deities."

Chairman Alexander now in a deep thought \'Is Seojun\'s non-awakened status just a mask? What are you hiding from us? I hope you don\'t put my grandchildren in danger."\'
