Inner Death and Another Chance:

In a world brimming with love and happiness, lives the most miserable person. Hill, a 19-year-old university student, is psychologically deteriorating, bound by the suffering of his impoverished family and the shackles of a future filled with fear, anxiety, and depression.

Hill escapes reality, retreating behind his electronic screen where he finds solace. However, over time, he becomes completely isolated from the world, leading to psychological problems and difficulties adapting to and integrating into society. But soon, he meets a girl named Jiva on social media, and their relationship blossoms into a date and love.

Hale didn't know that his love story was like a drop of water that caused a jug to overflow, as problems surrounded Jiffa. This girl was playing with fire, entangled Hale, and created trouble for him with criminals who wanted to eliminate anyone who came near her. Knowing about Hale's relationship with her, they threatened him several times and even tried to assassinate him. Hale retreated into isolation, and with his old psychological struggles and the threats, he started taking numerous medications for severe depression and anxiety from various doctors, but they didn't cure him. This forced him to abandon his studies, his work, and life itself, and he attempted suicide several times. One day, while Hale was sleeping in his room, he heard a voice calling to him, saying, "Another chance, another chance." He woke up and said, "This must have been just a dream because I really want this chance. If I had to choose, it might bring me change, perhaps even healing." He got dressed and went out into the street to get some fresh air. As he walked, he saw a group of criminals robbing a store. As soon as he passed them, they shot him to avoid being identified. Blood was coming out of his mouth, and he said, "This is better for me because I'm already dead inside." He kissed the ground, then lost consciousness.

He awoke in a place filled with bright light and said to himself:

Where am I?!

Is this a hospital?!

Then he heard the same voice that had said to him:

Another chance!

And then it appeared and said to him, "Hello, Hill, in Journey to Healing. My name is Teos, one of the overseers of this world, and I have chosen you." Hill asked, "Why me?!

And what is this world?!"

Teos replied, "Everyone who has experienced hardship and failed in their original world is given another chance in this world, Journey to Healing." Hill exclaimed, "Another world?!"

Teos said, "Yes! But it's not like the world you came from. This world is full of magic, power, and monsters." Hill said, "Power?!

I am weak. If I were strong, I wouldn't have come to your world as you say." Teos replied, "Here, power is given according to the amount of suffering, pain, failure, and illness you experienced in your original world.

Close your eyes and don't be afraid!" Goodbye, good luck in your new world.

Hill wakes up in a lush green forest. As he walks, he thinks to himself,

Is this the world of Journey to Healing?!

Suddenly, a screen appears. Welcome to Journey to Healing! Shall we begin?!

Hill presses the button. Yes!

Transform all suffering, pain, illness, depression, and isolation into power.

He says, "Hell King? What does that mean?!"

He focuses and aims at a rock, releasing a ball of fire. He strikes it, turning it to dust, and a smile spreads across his face as he discovers this world.

Hill walks until he reaches a large city called Vargacia, known for its strong economy. At the entrance gate, he finds a guard who prevents him from entering without a card.

Hil said to him, "Excuse me, but I'm new to this world and I don't have a card yet."

Just then, an old man passed by with a cart and a horse. He said to the guard, "He's with me, and this is the merchant's card I have."

They entered the capital, and Hil thanked him, saying, "I'm new to this world." The old man replied, "We all come from the same world!" Hil asked, "Does that mean we're all dead?" The old man answered, "I've been here for almost three years!"

"That makes it possible I'm dead in our original world, but we don't know for sure! What we do know is that those with average or high strength register with the Adventurers' Guild, while those with low strength work as merchants, weapons makers, or cloth merchants."

Hil asked, "And what is the role of an adventurer?"

The old man replied, "An adventurer's role is to kill monsters and earn a living by selling their hides and precious stones."

Hil asked, "Where are these monsters?" The old man replied, "Every capital has a dungeon, and the deeper you descend, the stronger the monsters you encounter." Hill asked, "How many capitals are there in this world?"

The old man answered, "As a merchant, I've been to every capital. There are four kingdoms: Vargacia, where we are now; Cyntia; Astona; and Fariala." Hill became excited and asked, "How do I register as an adventurer?"

The old man explained, "There's a place for adventurers called the Guild. They meet there and sell gems and monster-related items to earn money." Hill asked, "Could you show me where it is?" The old man said, "She's in the capital of the kingdom."

Hill replied, "Thank you, old man. One day I'll repay your kindness." He opened the door to the guild and entered. He found many warriors there and approached a guild worker. He said, "Hello, my name is Hill, and I'm new. I'd like to register as an adventurer."

She replied, "Hello, Hill, to the Adventurers' Guild. My name is Liana, and I'll take care of registering you. But before that, I'll measure your magical power. Please place your hand on this magic crystal." When he did, a black magic card appeared, and everyone was astonished by this magical power, which they had never seen before. Liana said, "Amazing! This is the first time I've seen black magic power!"

"I'll register you. What is your class?" There are the Assassin classes:

The Wizard

The Summoner

The Swordsman

The Healer

And finally, the Hell King, a legendary class, almost impossible to attain according to the history of this world. Hel said, "I'm a Summoner," so as not to draw attention to himself. Liana said, "A powerful class. Go here... Congratulations! This is your card. You're a D-rank beginner. I advise you to start the daily D-rank quests." A girl approached him and said, "Hello, my name is Jiva. I'm a D-rank healer, and I'm amazed by your strength. I'd like you to join my team so we can help each other." He joined her team. Hearing her name, Hel remembered his old flame from his original world, as they shared the same name. He said, "Thank you, Jiva. My name is Hel, but I prefer to work alone, and the D-rank quests are easy for everyone." Tia said, "But when you finish these quests, you'll move up to B-rank and start entering dungeons to level up quickly by killing monsters." Hel thought to himself, "So that's what the old man said!" He replied, "I don't want to be a burden on others. Right now, I want to work alone."

Jeva said, "As you wish! I've added you as a friend. Perhaps you'll change your mind someday." Hill said, "Okay, I accept."

Jeva continued, "Just like the famous team in this capital called Donjon Up." A B-rank adventurer of the Swordsman class overheard them and said, "You can't even last 10 seconds in a dungeon, you novice!" and they all laughed at him.

Hill took on a mission and left the guild. His first task was to extinguish a fire started by some birds on a farm near the capital, Vargacia. When he arrived at the scene, he found farmers who asked him, "Are you an adventurer?!" There are children trapped by the fire! Please help them! He rushed like lightning, and when he arrived, he entered the burning area. Using teleportation, he transported them to safety outside the farm. The farm owners approached him, overjoyed and thanking him for everything he had done. At that moment, Hell felt that his power made him happy and helped him break free from his isolation. He resolved to become even stronger.

He returned to the capital, Vargacia, and on his way to the guild, he saw the kingdom's inhabitants cheering and applauding the S-rankers, known as the Donjon Up, for reaching Cell 50. It was considered the most powerful discovery and the deepest cellar Vargacia had ever reached, and Hell's excitement grew even stronger.

Hill completed all the D-rank missions and returned to the guild to obtain the B-rank. He said, "Hello, Liana. I've completed all the D-rank missions, which involved gathering medicinal herbs, helping people kill crop-damaging animals, and protecting them from bandits." Liana exclaimed, "What?! You've only been registered for a week! The first adventurer to achieve the B-rank in such a short time! Well, here's your new B-rank card. Now you can enter the dungeons to kill monsters and level up!" Hill replied, "Thank you, Liana." Everyone in the guild was talking about a young man who had surpassed the D rank in just a few days. Hale's enthusiasm made him want to know everything about the dungeons. He said to her, "I want to know everything about the dungeons." She replied, "I advise you to go to the public library. You'll find everything you need to know there." Hale went to the library and found the librarian. He asked him, "Please give me books about the dungeons." The librarian replied, "These are all the books, but we only know about the 50th floor. The rest is unknown." Hale spent all his time there until the library closed. He left and returned to the Adventurers' Inn, where he slept. Before going to sleep, he kept thinking about how to level up quickly.

The sun rose, and a beautiful morning awaited Hale. He went to the Adventurers' Equipment Shop. He entered, and the shopkeeper said, "Welcome to the finest Adventurers' Equipment Shop. What can I do for you?" Hale replied, "Hello, my name is Hale, and I'd like this dagger. It really caught my eye. How much does it cost?" The shopkeeper replied, "Excellent choice! This dagger is light and easy to use. It costs one gold coin and three silver coins." He bought it, and as he left the shop, he overheard people talking about the dungeons. All the adventurers of the B and A ranks had left because monsters of lower ranks had infiltrated the upper levels, and the guild had forbidden entry to all but S-rank members. However, Hale decided to enter, disregarding the guild's warning. Upon arriving at the dungeon's location, he found a large tree trunk with a wide entrance and a guard. Hale approached, and the guard said, "Let me see your card. Today, only S-rank members are allowed." Hale thought to himself, "He'll refuse and won't let me in." He replied to the guard, "I only came to confirm the rumors. Look, someone has entered without your permission." Hale activated his cloaking. The guard exclaimed, "Where did he disappear to?! Could it be that he was an S-rank member who entered without my noticing his speed?"

He crept inside and felt a terrifying card, but this only fueled his courage and enthusiasm. As Hel walked, a group of Vuplas attacked him. He drew his dagger and swiftly attacked them, stabbing them one by one until he killed them all. The screen displayed:

Hel then said: "New ability activated: Hell Chains!" He gathered all the Goblin's magic stones and continued downwards until he found a safe place where adventurers gathered to regain their strength. The place was protected by a magical barrier, preventing monsters from entering. He descended and continued to the next dungeon, whereupon the Hellhounds attacked him with flameballs. He thought, "These monsters aren't very strong; they haven't infiltrated here. I can fight them." But Hel grew stronger and faster, dodging them left and right. He shouted, "I'll fight you your way-with magic!" He struck them with several hellfire balls, burning them to ashes. The remaining Hellhounds began barking for help, and many arrived. But suddenly, Hel felt the same magical power he had felt when he first entered, and even the Hellhounds began to flee, sensing the danger.

Suddenly, a giant worm emerged from the ground. Hel exclaimed, "What are you doing here? This worm is on the 37th floor and is known for absorbing magic!" He asked, "Should I retreat?!" The worm attacked him with a sticky, rock-melting liquid, but he dodged it and struck it with a hellfire ball. However, the worm absorbed it. Hel said, "So what they said about her is true."

Hel attacked with all his speed, stabbing the worm in the back with his dagger. The worm felt the stab and dragged him down to the 37th basement. The worm struck him, sending him flying across the rocks. Blood gushed from his mouth. Encouraged, Hel rose, his expression changing. He said, "Chains of Hell!" He pinned the worm as it screamed, gathering all his magical power into a massive ball of hellfire. He struck it against the worm, which tried to absorb it, but the amount of magic it contained was overwhelming. It swallowed the ball whole, and after a few seconds, it exploded. The screen displayed "Summoning the Hell Knight Available."
