Infinite System Inheritor Return From The Abyss

Chapter 57: Chapter 57: Battle (3)



Seojun watched as the Hellshadow Fire barreled toward Nerathiel, knowing that this attack could be the deciding moment. He poured all his energy into the flames, determined to see this through.

Nerathiel didn't even try to dodge the incoming [Hellshadow Fire]. Instead, he stood his ground and faced the oncoming dark flames head-on. Seojun frowned, his instincts screaming that something was off. He quickly muttered, "Barrier!" and a protective shield formed around him.

The [Hellshadow Fire] crashed into Nerathiel with a thunderous explosion. The ground shook violently, and a massive crater formed in the earth, sending a wave of dust and smoke billowing into the sky. Seojun held his breath, waiting for the dust to clear, his eyes narrowed with focus.

As the smoke began to settle, Seojun squinted to see through the haze. 'Is he dead?' he thought, hoping his powerful attack had done the job.

But just as he began to lower his guard, he felt a sudden presence above him. His instincts kicked in, and he swung his scythe upward just in time to block a powerful strike.

It was Nerathiel. He had survived.

"You survived that?" Seojun grunted, feeling the weight of Nerathiel's sword pressing down on him. "Damn it! He's a god, after all!" The force of Nerathiel's attack pushed him down, his feet digging deep into the ground until he started sinking into the earth beneath him.

Nerathiel hovered above, his expression twisted into a psychotic grin. "Show me more, human! More!" he muttered with a crazed excitement. "You probably have more tricks up your sleeves!" He laughed, the sound echoing through the barren landscape as if he was enjoying every moment of this brutal fight.

Seojun struggled to hold his ground, feeling the overwhelming force from above. Then he noticed something—Nerathiel had lost his right arm. A small spark of hope ignited in his chest. The [Hellshadow Fire] did some damage after all,' he thought.

With the pressure bearing down on him, Seojun decided to make his next move. He focused his energy into his scythe, activating a skill that unleashed a thick, poisonous smoke. [Venomous Wraith] The smoke billowed out in all directions, surrounding them both in a choking cloud.

Nerathiel immediately sensed the danger and leaped back, clearing himself from the toxic fumes. Seojun took this chance to break free from the sinking ground, gasping for breath.

"Where did you get this Human, Zyraena. I should visit to thank you for Throwing this human here" Nerathiel muttered.

Seojun stood there, his body covered in sweat, breathing heavily from the tough fight. He felt the weight of the battle, but he wasn't ready to give up. Clenching his teeth, he muttered, "You want more? Then survive this."

He lifted his hand high, focusing on the dark energy inside him, and began to chant, "Cursed Emberstorm." His voice echoed with power, filled with the curse's dark magic.

At first, nothing happened. Everything was still, with only a few embers crackling in the air from their previous attacks. Seojun's eyes narrowed, and he quickly cast a Barrier around himself, ready for what was to come.

Nerathiel stood across from him, holding his sword, watching with a smirk. He looked up at the sky and then back at Seojun, his grin mocking. "Is that all?" he taunted. "You call that a skill? Nothing's happening, human! Are you out of tricks?" He laughed, his voice full of contempt.

But Seojun didn't react. He kept his eyes on Nerathiel, waiting patiently. *Just wait for it,* he thought, his heart calm despite the tension.

Suddenly, the air above them began to shimmer and change. The sky darkened like an eclipse was happening, and the temperature dropped. Nerathiel's laughter stopped as he looked up, now suspicious.

High above, dark embers started to form in the sky, glowing like the flames of restless spirits. Slowly, they began to fall, like ashes drifting down. But within seconds, the embers turned into a violent storm, crashing down like fiery needles.

Seojun's eyes shined with determination. "There it is," he whispered as the Cursed Emberstorm unleashed its full power.

Nerathiel's face changed from mocking to serious focus. "So, you had something left ha!" he shouted, both angry and excited. The embers rained down, each one carrying a deadly curse that could burn through anything.

The ground burned and cracked under the heat of the storm, and the air itself seemed to be on fire.

The [Cursed Emberstorm] crashed down from the sky with terrifying force. Each cursed ember exploded as it hit the ground, sending waves of dust and shock in all directions. The ground around Nerathiel shattered, breaking apart under the powerful attack.

Nerathiel stood in the center of it all, his eyes wide with excitement. The embers struck him like small meteors, each one bursting with dark flames around him. Instead of dodging, he stayed right where he was, laughing like a maniac. The force of the attack sent out a huge shockwave, shaking the ground and creating a deep crater that spread wider and deeper.

Seojun stood back, protected by his Barrier watching as the destruction unfolded. He could feel the power of his own attack—it was much stronger than he remembered. "This is more powerful than the first time I used this skill," he thought. The cursed energy was wild, almost like it was feeding on his emotions.

The dust and smoke filled the air, making it hard to see. The embers continued to rain down, tearing the ground apart. Seojun focused on the center of the storm, where Nerathiel was standing. He couldn't see clearly through the chaos, but he knew the fallen god was still there, taking the full force of the attack.

The ground around Nerathiel broke even more, forming a deep crater. Seojun could feel the cursed flames trying to burn everything around them. His heart pounded. If this didn't work, he would have to find another way.

As the storm started to calm down, the embers slowly stopped falling, leaving the battlefield covered in ash and dark flames. The air was still thick with dust and smoke. Seojun held his scythe tightly, ready for anything.

Then, from the middle of the crater, he saw something moving. Nerathiel was still standing, but only half of him remained. His upper body was completely gone, leaving only his lower half standing there. The sight was so strange that Seojun couldn't help but lower his guard slightly, thinking the fight might be over.
