Infinite System Inheritor Return From The Abyss

Seojun muttered to himself, "So many cameras..."

He stayed perched in the tree, watching as more and more people arrived, each attempting to fight the mithril crocodons. Many had their own beasts, urging them into battle, but most of them rushed in without a plan. One by one, their numbers crossed out.

Shaking his head, Seojun jumped down from the tree and walked a bit away from the chaotic scene.

"This might be a good time to start training you, Sui,"

Sui immediately bounced with excitement, his body jiggling as he replied, "Kyuuu! I'll do my best, Master! Kyuuu!"

Seojun smiled at Sui's eagerness and opened the system notification to check the new task he got earlier.

[

New Task:

Train your contracted Dark Slime to unlock its hidden potential.

Task Requirements:

Complete at least 3 training sessions to evolve the Dark Slime into its next form.

Rewards

: Increased strength, new abilities, and bond strengthening.]

Seojun then tapped the highlighted words 'three training sessions' and more details appeared:

1.

Combat mastery

: Engage in controlled combat to increase agility and attack precision.

2.

Elemental absorption

: Teach the Dark Slime to absorb and utilize different elements in battle.

3.

Defensive enhancement:

Improve the slime's defensive capabilities by reinforcing its core stability.

Seojun read through the list, nodding to himself. "We'll start with combat mastery, Are you ready Sui?"

"Kyuu! Yes Master!"

Seojun then notice tapped that the training session is highlighted too and he tapped the "Combat Mastery" on the task screen, and more detailed instructions appeared:

Combat Mastery Training:

STAGE 1:

Engage your Dark Slime in small-scale battles.

Focus on agility and dodging.

Sui must avoid taking direct hits while keeping pressure on the target.

Recommended duration: 5 minutes per session.

STAGE 2:

Teach Sui to enhance his attack timing and aim for critical points.

Focus on striking vulnerable spots on the enemy.

The goal is to land at least 3 critical hits in one battle.

STAGE 3:

Increase Sui's endurance and teach him to fight multiple opponents.

Focus on combining agility, defense, and offense.

Recommended targets: Creatures with defensive abilities or groups of weaker enemies.

"Kyuu! What's all that, Master?" Sui asked, tilting up at the screen curiously.

"Combat training for you," Seojun explained, scanning the details.

"Kyuu! I can do it, Master!"

"Hmm," Seojun muttered, glancing at the instructions on the task screen again. "So, Should we follow this Global system's instructions or do it my way?"

He paused for a moment, thinking. "Nah, let's try following it. If it doesn't work, we'll do it my way."

"Kyuu! I trust you, Master!" Sui bounced, eager to start the next stage of the training.

Seojun looked around the area, scanning for any lower-level creatures that Sui could train with. After a few moments, he noticed a group of smaller crocodons in the distance, their scales still shimmering but not as intensely as the larger ones.

"Hmm, that looks more manageable," he muttered, activating his appraisal skill to get more information.

Name: Silver-Scale Crocodon

Rank: D

Description: This smaller variant of the Mithril Crocodon has silver scales instead of mithril. While its defense is weaker, it still has sharp claws and shoots scales when threatened.

"Perfect," Seojun said, turning to Sui. "This one's not mithril, just a lower-rank Silver-Scale Crocodon. It should be good for your first training."

"Kyuu! Let's go, Master!" Sui bounced excitedly, ready to begin.

Seojun let the task screen open, showing the first stage of the training:

---

Stage 1:

Engage your Dark Slime in small-scale battles.

Focus on agility and dodging.

Sui must avoid taking direct hits while keeping pressure on the target.

Recommended duration: 5 minutes per session.

After reading the instructions, Seojun walked to the side, keeping a watchful eye on Sui and glanced at the smaller Silver-Scale Crocodon in the distance nibbling on a mushroom.

"Alright, Sui," Seojun said in a calm voice. "For this training, we're going to focus on agility and dodging. No attacking, just avoiding hits. Understand?"

"Kyuu! Agility! No attacks, got it!" Sui bounced in agreement, preparing to follow Seojun's orders.

Seojun watched closely as Sui began the task, engaging with the Silver-Scale Crocodon by drawing its attention. But it quickly became clear that Sui's movements were a bit sluggish—he was having trouble dodging effectively, often moving too late or too slowly to avoid the crocodon's swipes.

"Hmm... Sui's agility isn't great," Seojun thought, realizing he hadn't fully appraised Sui yet so he activated his appraisal skill.

Name: Sui (Familiar)

Type: Dark Slime

Rank: D

Strength: F

Agility: E

Stamina: D

Mana: A

Seojun frowned as he reviewed the stats. Sui's agility was lower than he expected, and it explained why dodging was difficult. However, his mana was extremely high—something that could be useful later on.

Seojun muttered to himself, "Sui seems weaker than before." Just then, his system chimed in with a calm voice.

[Host, Sui is affected by the energy of this realm. When he arrived here, he was reset to a lower state. However, his skills are still intact, and he can still use them.]

"That explains it," Seojun replied, nodding. "This could be Sui's weakness in this new world."

[Host, I advise you to be strict during training to help Sui adapt and improve.]

Seojun took a deep breath, realizing he needed to take the training seriously. "I guess I have to. I'm sorry, Sui. But this is for your own good."

Turning his attention back to Sui, Seojun began the training session. "Okay, Sui! Focus on dodging. I want you to watch the crocodon's movements carefully and respond quickly!"

Sui nodded eagerly, his eyes fixed on the smaller Silver-Scale Crocodon as it moved around. Seojun watched closely, taking note of how Sui was dodging.

"Don't just wait for it to attack! Anticipate its movements! Move side to side!" Seojun shouted, his voice firm.

As the crocodon lunged, Sui tried to dodge but stumbled. "No, no! You need to be quicker!" Seojun encouraged. "Get ready! Jump to the left!"

Sui sprang to the side just in time, narrowly avoiding the crocodon's sharp teeth.

"Good! Now, keep moving! Don't stand still!" Seojun called out, feeling more determined to push Sui.

"Use your slime body to be flexible! You can stretch and squeeze your way around its attacks!"

Sui began to mimic Seojun's instructions, using his gelatinous body to slip under the crocodon's swipes. "Kyuu! I'm trying my best, Master!" he exclaimed, bouncing excitedly.

"Focus! Remember, you can't get hit!" Seojun said, feeling a mix of concern and encouragement. "If you get hit, we might not have another chance! Keep your eyes on the target!"

Sui listened intently, improving as the training session continued. Seojun shouted out commands, guiding Sui's movements with precision.

"Now! Jump over the tail! Don't just dodge; leap over it!"

As Sui executed the jump, Seojun clapped. "Yes! That's it! You're getting the hang of it!"

They continued the training, with Seojun emphasizing the importance of timing and observation. He made Sui repeat the drills, pushing him to engage more effectively with the crocodon that is now five.

"Four more minutes! Keep going, Sui! You're doing great!" Seojun cheered, feeling proud of his progress.

As they trained, he noticed Sui's movements becoming sharper and more confident. With each successful dodge, Seojun felt a sense of hope that Sui would regain his strength and become even stronger than before.
