280. Preparations for Summoning Demons.

Summoning demons is no easy feat, even in a world full of supernatural occurrences.

In a world where magic exists, not everyone has the ability to cast spells. While it's true that anyone who knows the right incantations and rituals, even a child, could technically summon a demon, there's still a significant difference between individuals.

The summoning of a common person and that of a wizard is worlds apart. Some people, no matter how hard they try, can never summon anything beyond a crossroads demon. It's not because they lack the ability, but because they aren't worthy.

Think of it like making a phone call; demons also have the right to decline. If anyone could summon a demon at will, then they wouldn't be called demons—they'd be genies. Moreover, magic is defined as mysterious phenomena that cannot be explained by science. This alone ensures that most people will never have access to such a miraculous domain.

And the Seven Deadly Sins are no ordinary demons. To establish a connection with them, both the ritual and the caster need to be of the highest caliber. Otherwise, it's not just that the summoning will fail—they might not even hear the call.

Although Alex had never personally summoned a demon before, he had witnessed the process several times. In the Marvel Multiverse, whether it was magical rituals or communicating with the minions of the Elder Gods, these experiences had left a lasting impression on him.

Now, in a universe that was both familiar and foreign, he was about to summon the legendary primordial demons. Alex was both excited and anxious.

As Alex was pondering how to prepare, Miss Minutes seemed to sense something. She disappeared in a flash, leaving Alex, who realized that someone was approaching. Sure enough, moments later, the door to the rooftop opened, and Kara appeared before him.

"Just arrived in a new world—aren't you going to rest? Your body is still recovering under the influence of the yellow sun. Sleeping should help your body adjust better," Alex said with a smile as he looked at Kara.

"I can't sleep," Kara responded, her eyes downcast, her face full of worry.

"Is it because of your cousin?" Alex understood Kara well and knew what her greatest concern was.

Kara gently nodded, acknowledging her thoughts. "I can't believe that Kal has turned into this. He was supposed to be Krypton's greatest. He shouldn't be so reckless, and he definitely shouldn't be the one starting a war."

"You could tell him all of this when you see him," Alex suggested. He wasn't sure how to judge this universe's Superman.

"To be honest, Alex, I don't even know what I'll say when I see him. I've imagined our reunion countless times, rehearsed so many conversations. But in this world, I really don't know what I'll say."

"Not one, but seven."

Alex raised an eyebrow and held up seven fingers.

"There's always something worth paying attention to in any universe, even one that's on the verge of destruction. There are treasures that ordinary people can never reach. The only question is whether you have the eyes and the power to find them."

"So, what's your target?"

"The Seven Deadly Sins, the oldest primordial demons in Earth's mythology." Alex didn't hide the truth, since he was about to perform the summoning ritual, which would be impossible to conceal. "Their power is immense, and once I devour them, I'll have the means to deal with other demons."

Seeing Alex so eager, Kara knew there was no point in trying to dissuade him. After all, Alex had devoured plenty of bizarre creatures over the years without any ill effects. Kara decided to let him be.

"So, what do we need to do?" Kara asked.

Alex carefully recalled the steps for the demon summoning ritual, then spoke seriously.

"Help me prepare seven mirrors, candles, and a quiet room. These are the basic requirements for summoning spirits. Of course, summoning demons will require more, so we'll also need some offerings."

"Where am I supposed to find offerings for you in the middle of the night? Want me to give you some of my blood?" Kara asked, glaring at Alex with disdain.

Hearing that, Alex quickly waved his hands.

"No thanks. You might burn someone again."
