Chapter 2263 "Sacrifice For The Abyss Tunnel?"
Ainsley was usually not a sharp person and was quite dull regarding emotions.
However, this time, she keenly captured Axelle's avoidance of his return, and her intuition clamored to interrogate this elf until he spilled out whatever he was planning to do!
Ainsley squinted her eyes and 'looked' at Axelle's image in her mind with eyes full of suspicion.
[Axelle, you didn't answer my question. When will you return? I don't care about the world union and so on. Anyway, indeed, they will not bother us anymore if their goal is only about the abyss tunnel.]
[I'm just worried that you don't have time to escape before your domain completely explodes, which will be dangerous. So, when will you return? Someone here calculated that your domain will completely explode in several minutes.]
As they talked, the countdown to total destruction kept going, and yet Ainsley didn't feel Axelle's urgency to return to the real world.
Ainsley might not be able to guess what Axelle wanted to do, or she refused to even think about it, but the Godfather, Jake and the others all had a hunch in their hearts.
They also looked at Axelle's image in their mind, but none of them interrupted the talk between Axelle and Ainsley.
Maybe it was because of their intuition or what, but they had a feeling that they should let these two people talk because maybe, this would be the last time.
Axelle's unique item that he got from nowhere should only be able to last until the domain exploded.
After that, he could never contact anyone outside of the abyss unless Axelle left the abyss and wandered from one world to another.
He might be able to return to the real world one day, but he would only be able to do that after the abyss developed to a certain extent because he was the king of the abyss, and he would be bound to the abyss until he had the strength to escape.
In fact, Axelle might not even want to escape because his goal was to develop the abyss, which was what his ancestors had always wanted to achieve but failed to do.
Axelle was not someone filial or something, but with the blood of the abyss king in his vein, he had this shackle, responsibility, and burden that would follow him for life.
Developing the abyss was also good for himself so that he would not reach that point of madness that many kings and queens of the abyss in the previous generations always avoided by leaving the abyss and entering Hell as a new resident.
Axelle was already determined to stay in the abyss for a long, long time and he was also prepared for nOT being able to see Ainsley and the others for their entire life.
The lifespan of human beings was just too short. Even if Ainsley and the others had mixed blood and should live twice or three times longer than the average humans, plus with their growing strength, their lifespan would also be extended, but the lifespan of an abyss demon king was just too much.
Axelle could live for thousands of years or maybe more than that because the previous kings and queens of the abyss should still be alive somewhere as demons in Hell.
They washed away their inferior abyss demon's bloodline and became an entirely new species. Even if they became an ordinary hell demon, their lifespan should still be long compared to humans in the main world.
Axelle wanted to develop the abyss and lift the abyss demon's curse, which means maybe, someday, the abyss demons would gradually become a proper race that was not like a monster with only greed and madness.
By then, his lifespan would still be long as the king of the abyss demon, and he might not need to wash away his bloodline to become a hell demon.
The abyss demon might develop to be on par with hell demons, and the abyss might also become bigger, with more than just one layer, unlike now, where all abyss demons were stuffed into one big place with only some 'walls' to divide them.
Axelle really didn't want to answer Ainsley's question, but Ainsley gritted her teeth and kept pushing the matter.
[Axelle, can you hear me? Don't pretend to be deaf. I know you can hear me. Tell me when you will return! Or do you plan to sacrifice yourself or something to completely blow up the abyss tunnel?]
[Does the total destruction of the abyss tunnel need the soul of a high-level abyss demon or something?]
Ainsley thought that the World Union captured Axelle because they needed him to be a sacrifice to destroy the abyss tunnel, but even the world union didn't know that Axelle was already a quasi-king of the abyss demons now.
As long as he returned to the abyss and survived the brutal cannibalism and the fight for the throne, he would become the official abyss demon king.
The abyss tunnel didn't need such a sacrifice at all, but Ainsley misunderstood.
She thought that Axelle would die, but in fact, he would definitely live. It was just that, they might not be able to meet each other for a long, long time.
Maybe for eternity.
Axelle could keep silent for a while, but as time went on and the countdown to total destruction reached exactly three minutes, only then did Axelle confess the truth to Ainsley.
The man who had become confident suddenly turned his head away, not wanting to look Ainsley in the eyes.
[I...I didn't intend to sacrifice, but I have to go to the abyss, and...] n--o.)V(/e((L--B--1-/n
And he can't go back to the main world forever.
