Jietisikoki could not accept the defeat before his eyes.
He had to know why.
Even if death seemed all but inevitable, Jietisikoki still had to know exactly how he was going to die!
Thus, even as his soul-body gradually faded and turned insubstantial beneath countless piercing wounds, his mind was frantically pondering the true identity of the malformed infant before him!
"The Abyss's true body may be an infant."
"Two souls coexist in the deepest depths of Ye Chen's mind."
"One soul takes the form of the physical body from reality."
"The young man who looks exactly like Ye Chen in reality uses pure Abyss power—black and freezing cold."
"The infant who looks utterly different from Ye Chen in reality uses pure Bloodsmith power—crimson and blazing hot."
Too much.
There were simply too many suspicious points, too many strange points, too many contradictions!
But Jietisikoki felt that there had to be some shocking secret hidden within all this!
And it was precisely the existence of that secret
that had led to his ultimate defeat!
"True body, soul, flesh, young man, infant, Abyss, Bloodsmith."
"Bloodsmith, flesh, young man, soul, infant, Abyss, true body?"
"Abyss, flesh, young man, Bloodsmith, soul, infant, true body!"
All this information, all these concepts, accompanied by countless threads of inspiration, tangled and connected within the depths of the Butcher Hunter's mind, sorting through every link in the chain before him!
And then—
As a spark of insight suddenly flashed through his mind like lightning, the next instant, every clue, every piece of information, every seemingly irreconcilable logic was straightened out by Jietisikoki's thoughts without a single exception!
At last, he had arrived at the one conclusion that could explain it all!
And the birth of that conclusion first made Jietisikoki's thoughts clear as a sky split open
