PS: Background BGM for this chapter: Icarus.
"The will of the Bottomless Abyss?"
At the same moment, gazing at the high-ranking demons before him charging fearlessly toward him, fanaticism blazing in their eyes, Li Weier murmured as realization dawned on him.
The Abyssal Will was chaotic and indistinct, yet it undeniably existed in a manner mortals could not comprehend.

"More death!" Dreadtail Tritis
