Infinite System Inheritor Return From The Abyss

Seojun looked at his mother with a nostalgic smile. "I want to go back to our house, Mom. It's where I grew up and it holds so many memories. It's important to us."

Seoyang's eyes glistened with tears as she smiled warmly. "If that's what you want son, let's go back there. We'll make it our home again."

Alex turned to Seojun and asked, "What about tomorrow?"

Seojun glanced at Shaun and said, "Great, Wanna come with us, Uncle?"

Shaun smiled and replied, "I'll just come for a vacation. I missed Korea too."

Seoyang then said, "Just wait a minute; I'll prepare my things."

She left the room, and Seojun watched as she took out her phone and dialed a number. He chose to ignore it and headed to his room.

Min-seok woke up with a groan, rubbing his neck and looking around. It was nighttime now, and he could see Jin-hyu, Hannah, Kaeri, and even Jae-hyun all unconscious on the ground. He couldn't find Seojun anywhere.

"What happened? He disappeared again?" Min-seok muttered, bewildered.

Jin-hyu slowly stirred and groaned, "We're alive?!"

"Ugh, my neck hurts," Hannah complained as she woke up. Min-seok sighed, thinking, 'We didn't even get a chance to know his name properly.'

Suddenly Minseok grab something and when he look at it, it was a pouch. He open it and shock to see a gold coins.

"Where did you get that? Wait," Hannah counted taking minutes and her eyes widened "10,000 gold coins! This is too much! Hide it before Jae-hyun woke up!"

"Where did you get this?" Jin-hyu asked as they give it to Min-seok and he hide it.

"I don't know wait there's a letter" Min-seok pick up a paper in the ground which written 'Split it up for 4 of you'.

"It's from Master! Four then Me, Min-seok ,jin-hyu and..."

"It's kaeri, Just how did Master get this large money?" Min-seok muttered and they all shrug

Suddenly, people descended from the sky and approached them. Kaeri muttered, "It's the dungeon authorities."

One of the authorities said sharply, "What are you doing here?! Time in the Beast Sanctuary is over!"

They apologized and asked, "Do you know why the Mother of Familiars is missing?"

Min-seok and the others exchanged puzzled looks and replied, "We don't know."

"Why? What happened?" Hannah asked.

"You don't need to know. Get up and get out of here," the authority responded brusquely. They then walked away, continuing their conversation.

"She should be in her cave, but now she's gone. The beasts are getting out of control, What about the Beast doctor? where are they?" one of them said.

As they heard this, Jin-hyu and Min-seok exchanged worried glances. "Could it be that Master..."

In the next day...

The morning sun warmed the air as Seojun and his mother, Seoyang, stood before their old family home in Seoul, Korea. The house was built in a traditional Korean style, with its curved, tiled roof and strong wooden beams. A high wooden wall and gate surrounded the property, providing privacy from the outside world.

The wide backyard stretched out behind the house, with space for flowers, trees, and memories.

Seojun had been here before, but this time it felt different. He was back with his mother, and he could see the changes. The old parts of the house that had once been worn and faded were now fixed and refreshed. The wooden beams looked solid, the paint was fresh, and the windows were clean and clear.

Seoyang took a deep breath, her eyes filled with nostalgia. "It feels different coming back here with you," she said softly. "It brings back so many memories."

Seojun nodded, his eyes moving over the familiar features—the stone path leading to the door, the ginkgo tree he used to climb in the wide backyard, and the quiet corners where he once played.

"Yeah, it does feel different. It feels more like home now that you're here Mom."

They walked inside, and Seojun felt the difference immediately. The house had always been simple; there had never been many things inside because they were poor. The rooms were mostly empty, with just a few basic pieces of furniture—an old wooden table, a few chairs, and thin mats for sleeping. But now there were some new additions.

Alex stood nearby, smiling as he took down the "Sold" sign from the gate. "We cleaned up and repaired some of the old parts," he said with pride. "And I thought you might need a few things, so I added some new appliances—just the basics. A fridge, a stove, and a washing machine. Nothing fancy but it should help."

Seojun turned to Alex, his smile grateful. "Thanks, Alex. That means a lot. You didn't have to do all this."

Alex shrugged, still smiling. "I wanted to. You and Auntie deserve a comfortable home."

Seoyang looked at Alex with a warm expression. "Thank you so much, Alex. You've always been like a second son to me."

Alex chuckled. "I'm happy to help, Auntie. This place means a lot to me too."

Seojun walked up to the gate and pushed it open, the wood creaking softly. Stepping into the courtyard, he felt a sense of peace. The house looked the same, but with the new touches, it felt more welcoming. The familiar rooms with their wooden floors and sliding paper doors were bright with morning light, and now, there were a few modern conveniences that made the space feel more livable.

Alex leaned against the doorframe, looking out at the garden. "You two should check out the backyard. We fixed up the flower beds, and the garden is blooming nicely now."

Seoyang's eyes lit up. "I'd love to see it. The garden was always my favorite part."

As they explored the house together, Seojun felt a deep sense of comfort. It was the same house he had returned to before, but now, with his mother beside him, the old parts fixed, and some new additions from Alex, it truly felt like home again—a place full of love, memories, and warmth.

Seojun took a deep breath and smiled. "It's really good to be back."

The afternoon sun poured its golden light into the living room, casting a warm glow over the space. Seoyang sat comfortably on a cushioned bench near the window, her eyes wandering over the garden. The breeze rustled the leaves outside, carrying the sweet scent of blooming flowers into the house.

Seojun approached her from behind, holding a wooden comb. He started to gently work through her hair, his touch tender and careful.

"I've really missed this, Mom," he said quietly. "I want to spend time with you and make up for the five years I was away. I want us to live peacefully together."

"You don't have to worry about money this time, Mom," Seojun and Seoyang respond with a soft laugh. "I'm fine."

Seojun shook his head, a reassuring smile on his face. "No, Mom. I want to make sure you don't have to think about any financial worries. I'm going to take care of everything. I'll buy anything you need and make sure you have everything you didn't have before."

Seoyang laughed lightly, touched by his words. "You're always so thoughtful, Seojun. But really, it's okay. I'm comfortable."

Seojun's smile widened, but his expression turned serious. "There's something else I want to do, too. I'm planning to get a vet doctor license."

Seoyang's eyes widened with surprise. "Just a license? Didn't you always dream of becoming a vet doctor and having your own hospital?"

Seojun continued to comb her hair, his movements gentle and steady. "Yes, I did have those dreams. But for now, getting the license is enough. My main priority right now is to be here with you, Mom. I want us to enjoy our time together and make up for the lost years."

As Seojun continued combing his mother's hair, Alex walked into the room.

"Hey, Seojun," Alex said, catching their attention. "I heard what you were planning. You don't need to worry too much about the vet license right now."

Seojun looked up, surprised. "Why's that?"

Alex stepped closer and explained, "There are new rules and changes in the vet profession that make it more complicated. But I can help you with that."

Seojun smiled with relief. "Thanks, Alex. I was planning to start in about a week, once we're settled."

Alex nodded. "That's fine. Just call me when you're ready and I'll help you out."

Seoyang smiled at them both. "It's great to have friends who help out."

Seojun agreed. "Definitely. I'm lucky to have you, Alex. I'll reach out when I'm ready."

Alex smiled back. "No problem. Enjoy your time with your mom. We'll sort out the rest when you're ready."

With that, Alex gave a friendly nod and left the room. Seojun and Seoyang continued to enjoy their peaceful moment, feeling reassured about the future.
