The Devil's Evolution Catalog

Chapter 273: Genesis and the Apocalypse (2)

The formation of Half-planes is a subject weve delved into multiple times. There was once a scholar who hypothesized that these dimensional planes were actually a failed creation of the Creator. The reasoning behind his theory was twofold. One was that a complete Plane of existence and a Half-plane both shared a significant number of similarities. Second, while the two were vastly similar, Half-plane lacked a day and night cycle. Moreover, Half-planes were directly linked to the endless void. Should a creature accidentally cross over the boundaries of the Half-plane, it would get devoured instantly. Normally, these Planes were devoid of life. Because there is no day and night cycle, ordinary plants arent able to survive either.

There are still a whole host of mysteries in this world for us to uncover. The Creator blessed mankind with intelligence which allowed us to apply our wits to solve a variety of problems. I believe that sooner or later, every mystery in this world would be unravelled by us humans. Perhaps this is the real test given to us by the Creator.

Speaking of which, youre from the Blood Sea right? Have you ever wondered how the Blood Sea was formed?

Because I was so overwhelmed by all the information Ive learnt thus far, I ended up unintentionally staying quiet for a long while. Probably bored and also a little impatient, the statue spoke up once more to disrupt my contemplations: I bet you dont even know why youre here right now.

Im here because the Shadowcat Princess, Meisian, directed me herewhere I really want to be is Abaddonerr, is there any other reason I should know of? Each time this statue touched upon this topic, I made sure to measure my words carefully. After all, the fact that I had transmigrated into this world was a miracle that boggles the mind. What I truly feared was that something bad would happen should this secret ever get outnot that an almighty divinity like him would care so much about me to begin withwould a human ever care about the thoughts of an ant? Clearly not, unless it had some kind of research value.

I said before, being able to awaken me means that you must have had some kind of deep connection to one of my descendents. Perhaps you might think that all Fallen Angels are my descendents, thats where you are wrong. The kids who truly qualify as my descendents are far and few between. One identifying trait is that they all have purple wings.

Purple wings

Thats right, ordinary Fallen Angels have black wings, only my descendents are worthy of a more regal purple hue.

Yi Yis wings were purple then tooso thats why they werent blackshes actually the descendent of Luciferthen was the reason why she sent me here because of this statue? Why does it feel like Ive gotten myself into a whole new mess againdont tell Yi Yi was using me from the start?

Im sure youve realized by now, youre not the first nor are you the only one sent to the Blood Sea. You are, however, the only one who successfully made it before me and thats why, you should feel proud.

Proud? Whats that? I have no idea what youre talking about

Honestly, I had always thought of myself as a lucky person. Even after I died saving Yi Yi, I was actually satisfied. Although we barely knew each other then, but the moment she was that I was useful, I died with gratitude in my heart.

Putting it like that, it must have really sounded laughable to some. To die for another and then to feel grateful towards that person instead simply because of those simple few wordswas there anything more ridiculous than that? But even so, I really felt complete then. At least, right on my deathbed, I managed to do something that I felt was right; I helped a girl that was in trouble and that girl even became my fiancee and helped me reincarnate, purely out of gratitude.

From that moment on, I worked my hide off to try and reach Abaddon to find herjust like how I desperately wanted to return to the Western Human Realm to find Nicole. And yet, here, right now, the answer that I got was that it was all just some giant plot? A farce?

If that was really the case, then what had I been doing all this while? What was even the point of my existence? To get married to Yi Yi? Or was it just to awaken this clone of Lucifer? No, thats not rightI was sent here in the first place because One-eye betrayed me. From the very beginning, I intended to head straight to Abaddonthen One-eyewas his betrayal a part of all this as well? Who was the one controlling One-eye? Or perhaps he was a spy from the very beginning?

If Yi Yis true aim was to have me awaken Lucifers clone, then wouldnt Fertinier be a spy as wellafter all, she was present within my soul from the very beginning, and had, for a time, been hiding out in my soul, watching and observing me

If all that was true, then didnt that mean that Fertinier had predicted I would break out of the Prison of the Dead right from the very beginning? That was why she placed some kind sleeper curse within One-eye that would only activate under very specific situations

Like for examplewhen I was about to step into that portalor perhaps she was already awake then and had used that opportunity to mesmerize One-eye

Blast it, theres too many possibilitiesexactly what have I gotten myself into herewhy does it feel like theres nobody I can trust right now

Whywhy must it be like thisI was just an ordinary human back then. Because of my soft-heartedness, I ended up saving some purple winged girl and ended up dying thanks to that. Once I woke up, I found myself in some terrifying place full of red-skinned devils feeding on each other to growwhats worse was that I was one of them as wellI always thought that she revived me out of gratitude and yet youre telling me that all that was just because of youFertinierFertinier, are you awakeI know youre awakeI bet youre enjoying the show right now, arent you?! Answer meget out here! Now!!

With so many questions bombarding me at once, I was almost on the verge of a mental collapse. All I wanted to know now was what the heck did I work so hard forexactly what was the point of my existence? Was Yi Yi making use of meexactly what was Fertiniers position in all this

If awakening Lucifers clone was the real reason behind my revivalthat meant that Yi Yi had been using me all this whileall that talk about being a fiancethat was just a load of bovine poop Fertinier, get out here now, I know youre awake, I bet youre having a good laugh right nowget out here, I have something to ask you!

Stop shouting, whether you believe it or not, Asmodeuss daughter is actually still in hibernation. She must have forcefully used her soul energy, causing it to get damaged in the process. Unless she gets some form of nourishment, she probably wont be able to wake up in the short term. Having had his fill of watching me yell like a mad devil, he finally decided to explain the situation to me.

Even though I dont really have to explain this to you, Ill do so anyway since you look so pitiful. Sending a closely connected soul that required reincarnation was a rule set by my main self 80 000 years ago. As for the reason, Im sure you have some inkling about it as wellit has to do with the Blood Sea.

So what hes saying is that Yi Yi made me her fiance because of some ancestors wish? In other words, she might not know the real reason for sending me into the Blood Sea as well? No, she should know some facts as well. The key is that she admitted our relationshipif thats the case, she technically isnt using me either. She was just fulfilling an ancestors wish; it didnt have to be me who got sent down to the Blood Seaeven so, a fiancee huh

Also, that Blood Sea

Blood Sea According to what Ive learnt so far, the Blood Sea had been sealed up for 80 000 years. Since the whole link between the Land of the Dead and the Blood was created by Lucifer, did that mean that he was the one behind the sealing as well? Based on what little information Ive gathered so far, he was the only one who had the power to do sothe fact that the Prison of the Dead was linked to the Blood Sea was the best proof there was

After all, the Blood Sea was the birthplace of all the fiendish races. Even though the three hells now had enough devils and fiendish creatures to sustain their own populations, the Blood Sea must have still been an important source of replenishment. For such an important place to be sealed up for so long,there was no way the devils wouldnt be angryimagine if someone barred entry to your ancestors tombclearly you would be angry.

Yet throughout my journey, I saw no signs of such anger at all. Even though the majority of the devils I had come into contact with were all from the Blood Sea, there were still those who werent. Back in the Prison of the Dead, a portion of Mo Ens devils werent born in the Blood Sea. I had chatted with them before and when I mentioned the Blood Seas sealing, they didnt seem to react all too much at all.

Truth be told, I didnt think too much about that either. Thinking back on it now, it was truly a strange situation. After all, if someone had boarded up my doors and kidnapped my family, I would definitely call the police or something. And yet the mother-like existence known as the Blood Sea had remained sealed up for 80 000 years without a single devil making a fuss about iteven if these devils were all selfish creatures and only cared about their own gains, shouldnt dominating the Blood Sea be enough of a merit?

Based on that, it was safe to say that their placid reaction was nothing but unthinkable.
