380 The Exploration of the Half Bitwall (1/2)
”I'm calling out your name! I earnestly pray for your response!”
”Adenos, I offer you my soul as a sacrifice! I'm calling out your name! I earnestly pray for your response!”
”I earnestly pray for your response!”
”Please respond!”
”Adenos!”
In a large castle on the outskirts of Kelermo in the Master Kingdom, a lady in black robes, with the help of dozens of saints, opened the door to the abyss. It wasn't too troublesome to call out to the devil, but if they wanted to find a devil with his real name while using specific witchcraft, and the devil they were looking for was resisting their summon in the abyss, that was a different scenario.
But Alice found that no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't find him in the abyss by calling out his real name. Even when she used a soul spell to trace their memories, she just couldn't locate him in the abyss.
”We succeeded previously, why can't we do it now? Why?” After several attempts all were futile. They tried a new method every time, but their anticipations and expectations always met with failure.
Alice summoned a devil and tried to find Adenos through the devil. Such a man would never be nameless even in the abyss. But Alice found that even if she summoned the will of the Devil Lord from the deepest part of the abyss, she couldn't find out where Adenos was. It was as if he had never existed.
”Ga-ga-ga-ga! There's only one possibility in this case!”
”That's it – he's dead!”
”He had a clean and neat death, there's nothing left of him!”
The Devil Lord from the deepest part of the abyss answered Alice in that way. Although those devils were cunning and evil, they wouldn't cheat when they were offered sacrifices and bound to an agreement.
When she got that answer, Alice realized that she wasn't that shocked and grieved. Perhaps she had already accepted the result in her heart even before all the attempts and expectations and pain. And yet, she was still unwillingly to accept that result after spending twenty years searching for an answer.
”So he'll die too?”
Adenos's words suddenly reverberated in Alice's ear again, and the tone was still so cold and disdainful. ”Only the dead will be eternal!”
”So...so…you'll die too? I thought...there's no being or difficulty in the world that can make you frown. I thought even death has to lower its head when it meets you!”
As Alice lifted the witchcraft array used to summon the devil, she watched the supernatural spiritual light spin and the devil bound to the agreement exit. She drew open the curtain of the castle, sat on a bench beside her, cupped her face, and felt her shoulders continuously tremble.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click visiting.
Alice still couldn't believe that such a fellow could die. He might not be the one with the most unique and striking appearance, but he was absolutely the most arrogant and extremely conceited one in spite of that. He despised gods, held contempt for death, scorned at all living beings, morality, rules, and order.
Alice, like everyone else, disagreed with his approach. His crazy and unbridled actions and his madness and his contempt for life, but one couldn't deny his charm and mesmerizing demeanor when revolting against everyone in the entire world.
Alice stopped searching for answers, she felt that was enough. The corpses of those who died at Adenos's hands were enough to accumulate into a mountain that could break through the clouds. Their souls were enough to turn a bright sky into a dark night. There was nothing to complain about or regret about his death, and nobody prayed for him. Still, nobody thought such a person would die so quietly.
His life wasn't like the brilliant fireworks blooming and fading away, but it sorrowfully exited in the quiet dark night.
