After a few years of endless dying and regenerating, Gaseo was growing stronger and slowly adapting. This ti, however, there was noticeable progress—his consciousness was gradually returning. Unlike before, he died almost instantly with no ti to regain awareness, but this ti was different, he now was able to survive for a few seconds before dying again.
[Ga over! You have died!]
[Ga over! You have died!]
[Ga over! You have died!]
...
...
...
Unfortunately, a few seconds weren’t enough for him to rember everything. Each ti he died, he found himself forgetting where he had left off.
...
...
10 years later...
After dying countless tis and coming back to life repeatedly, he had finally attained the power of SSS-Rank level. However, his true level still remained at S-Class, though his stats had increased so significantly that his overall strength now matched that of an SSS-Rank superhuman.
At this point, his body’s resilience had reached such extraordinary heights that even the stomach acid of the Colossal Sea Serpent could no longer harm him. In short, he had beco so formidable that he essentially took zero damage, making him finally able to stay alive long enough to be aware of his surroundings and his current situation.

Ding!
[Your body is regenerating. Please be patient...]
[HP: 5%]
Hearing the system notification, I woke up. When I finally opened my eyes again, my first thought was confusion. It felt like I had slept for years, but it was hard to tell. Looking around, I noticed that my surroundings were still pitch black, and I was still subrged in the stomach acid of an unknown colossal sea monster.
Wait, hold on... sothing doesn’t feel right this ti. It’s like the stomach acid intensity has changed. Hmm, what the hell is going on? Did I miss sothing while I was asleep the whole ti?
And just like last ti, only my head remained intact. A familiar feeling of weightlessness and vulnerability lingering throughout my body. My limbs—or what should have been my limbs—were absent, as my body hadn’t fully regenerated and recovered yet.
When I realized the only thing I had was my head, I freaked out. W-What the fuck is happening?! Did I perhaps die again?! But how?! Ugh, just what the hell is going on here?! How did things turn out like this?!
I couldn’t help but feel really confused.
Then, out of nowhere:
[Your skill "Infinite Regeneration" has leveled up!]
[Skill: Infinite Regeneration (Level 3 >> Level 4)]
At first I thought that was it, but then another notification popped up:
Ding!
[Congratulations on your recovery! Not only has your body fully healed, but you’ve also triggered a significant boost: your Strength and Agility stats have each increased by 40 points, enhancing your overall physical power.]
[STR: 1501 >> 1541]
[AGI: 1318 >> 1358]
Huh?! What in the world are these insane stats?! Since when did both my STR and AGI stats go above 1,000 points?! Seriously, what kind of joke is this?! Is the system pranking on or what?! Or is there so sort of system error or perhaps bug? And what’s with the ssage saying my body is fully healed? If that’s true, then why the hell am I still missing parts of my body???
Wait, hold on... No way! I can’t believe even my infinite regeneration skill has also leveled up to Level 4! How’s that even possible?! I could’ve sworn the last ti I checked, it was goddam Level 2! Holy shit! Seriously, just what on earth happened to while I was asleep all this ti?!
Before I could process anything further, the rumbling in the stomach intensified. Sothing was shifting. The sea monster I was trapped inside was moving. At first, the movent was slow, but then suddenly, I felt a massive quake shake around .
ROAAARRR!!!
The shaking intensified, growing more violent with each passing second. Along with the tremors, I heard a loud roar coming from this giant sea monster. It wasn’t just the roar—it felt as if the very walls around were vibrating in response to the creature’s fury.
From the way the monster shifted, it seed as though this massive being was engaged in so kind of fierce battle, though I couldn’t make sense of who or what it was fighting. Perhaps against another sea monster? Or sothing even more dangerous? The uncertainty only added to the chaos.
Regardless, the sensation of the shaking was so intense that it felt as if I had been tossed into a giant milkshake bottle, and soone was shaking it up and down or side to side with no care for what would happen to .
Aaaaaaaaaaghhh!!! I couldn’t help but feel extre discomfort as it felt like a massive earthquake was happening. It was so intense that I started developing a severe headache from it.
...
...
After about fifteen to twenty minutes passed, the shaking finally stopped.
ROAAARRR!!!
The massive sea monster roared loudly again, a sound so powerful that it seed to shake the very air around . It was as if this sea beast had erged victorious from so fierce battle, and this roar was its triumphant declaration. The way it echoed in the vastness of the waters gave the impression that it was savoring its victory, basking in the aftermath.
Well, at least that’s what I thought, or rather, what I guessed, since I had no real way of knowing for sure. But given the circumstances, it felt like the only logical conclusion.
Phew! I’m not sure what’s going on, but I’m just glad it’s finally over, and I can finally rest from all those intense shakes.
Now, all that was left was to wait patiently until I fully recovered and regained my entire body back. Every fragnt, every piece of myself had to co together again. Once I had my full body, moving around would no longer be a struggle, and I could finally escape this damn colossal sea monster’s stomach. The thought of getting out of this suffocating, slimy prison filled with a strange mix of determination and impatience.
I could already imagine it—the first breath of fresh air, the cool wind brushing against my skin, and the sheer relief of standing on solid ground again. Ah, I can’t wait for the day I achieve freedom! Hahaha! The re thought of it sent a thrill through , and I couldn’t help but laugh inwardly. My heart raced with excitent, my mind painting vivid pictures of what that mont would feel like.
For now, though, all I could do was endure. But with every passing second or minute, I’m one step closer to that glorious day of freedom!
