You want me to take out a loan to practice cultivation? I'll just pay off the debt physically.

A series of question marks exploded in Aglios's mind; at this moment, He was somewhat bewildered.

[Help...help the will of hell?]

What can we do to help Him?

Want to play the Abyss?

What kind of joke is this?

Although my strength has improved, should I intervene in the direct war between the two world wills, the Abyss and Hell?

That's like sending a strong ant to shake two colliding galaxies!

Does He have this ability?

Is the Will of Hell insane, or is it simply insane?

[As if sensing the disbelief and absurdity churning in Agrus's eyes, the will of hell directly solidified its crimson power.]

The next moment, His vast and icy voice of will resounded once more.

I hope the Red Heart Society can send troops to intervene in my war with the Abyss and help Hell reclaim its lost ground.

I hereby promise!

[If you help me this time, I will use my own power to protect the Red Heart Society should the Abyss's Will or the Spirit Realm's Will ever turn against it again!]

【Believe me!】

【Aglius!】

Although Hell has a bad reputation throughout the world, it made its fortune through deception.

[But I think you should understand that while Hell might deceive and cheat other forces, it would never deceive the Red Heart Society.]

[As he spoke, the Will of Hell paused.]

[Aglius, you should know whether the founder of the Red Heart Society, who wields the power of time and space and can reverse time, is watching us from another, higher dimension of time.]

Under these circumstances, I would never deceive the Red Heart Society!

From a purely self-interested perspective, I've already given so much to the Red Heart Society, how could they suddenly change their minds at this point?

Don't hesitate any longer!

This might be the best decision you ever make!

The Hellish Will's series of words, a combination of intimidation, suggestion, and analysis of benefits, plunged Agris into a deep silence.

Within His colossal eyes, burning with the fires of the abyss, even the flow of lava seemed to slow, as countless thoughts collided fiercely within them.

【yes! 】

[Aglius suddenly understood the point the Will of Hell had made.]

He knew all too well the power of the founder!

How could that pioneer, who could travel back in time and observe the future within the river of time, truly perish completely?

At this moment, He must be in a higher dimension beyond this space and time, quietly looking down upon the Star Abyss Branch of the Red Heart Society, this flickering flame in the storm.

His gaze never left!

[If that's the case, then what do I have to fear?]

Even if this hellish will harbors malicious intentions, has set a deadly trap, and has harmed itself and the entire Star Abyss branch, so what?

This heavy price may well be the experimental data that the pioneers needed!

[By sacrificing the potential destruction of the Star Abyss branch, we can allow the founders to clearly see the insidious nature of the Hellish Will—that it is absolutely incompatible—and sound the alarm for the Red Heart Society in countless future timelines.]

This price may not be unacceptable!

This failure, in a sense, is also a valuable success.

He, Agrippa, willingly became this sacrificed pawn.

[This fleeting moment of enlightenment and the subsequent surge of relief in Agris's mind, though extremely subtle, was instantly and precisely captured by the hellish being opposite him, composed entirely of will.]

Within the crimson form of the Will of Hell, countless cold arcs of light suddenly shone.

[His mind immediately cleared: Indeed!]

My idea is correct!

The founder of the Red Heart Society hadn't truly vanished; instead, he was watching over everything like a ghost in a form beyond His comprehension, a form that transcended time and space.

[You old fox!]

[If I hadn't come to test him personally today, if Agris hadn't revealed the truth with that fleeting emotional outburst.]

[If, in the future, I were to make some strategic misjudgment and reveal any unfavorable tendencies towards the Red Heart Society, whether overtly or covertly, wouldn't that observer immediately detect it and trigger an unimaginable reckoning across time and space?]

That was an absolute and utter disaster!

In the blink of an eye, countless thoughts surged within the vast core of the Will of Hell's mind.

The most important and urgent response strategy instantly took shape. This earth-shattering secret, which the founders were still observing, had to be completely concealed!

[We must not allow the will of the abyss, and especially the will of the spirit realm, to detect the slightest clue.]

He must act immediately to package the outcome of this negotiation as a purely transactional exchange of interests.

In the ensuing war, He will provide the Star Abyss branch with massive amounts of Hellish resources in the name of fair trade, in exchange for the Red Heart Society sending legions to intervene on the battlefield.

On the surface, this appears to be Hell trading resources for external aid.

In essence, this will be another significant investment by Hell's Will in the future of the Red Heart Society.

[In this process, the Abyss's will will inevitably be drawn to the Red Heart Legion's activities, which is exactly the effect the Hell's will desire.]

He intended to use his prior knowledge that the founders were still observing this top-secret information to meticulously weave a colossal lie.

[To create a perfect illusion in the face of the will of the abyss, that the founder of the Red Heart Society has indeed fallen, and that its power of time reversal can no longer affect the current timeline.]

The Will of Hell knows its chaotic old adversary all too well. The Abyss's apprehension towards the Red Heart Society largely stems from its fear of the unpredictable nature of the creator's spacetime power.

[Once the will of the abyss confirms that the creator is dead, the power of spacetime will have no effect on this realm.]

Given the Abyss's greedy and tyrannical nature, it will inevitably lose its last shred of patience towards the Red Heart Society, a weak force that has repeatedly escaped destruction and even thrived right under its nose.

At that time, the abyss's heavy fist will strike the Star Abyss Branch without restraint.

In the year 1369 of the Extraordinary Era, the flames of war reached a new climax in the countless burning planes where the Abyss and Hell meet.

The legion under the Star Abyss branch, deeply tempered by the Red Psyche's ideology, possessing exceptional tactical skills and an astonishingly tenacious fighting spirit, was officially deployed to the Hell's front under the command of Agris.

These forces, led by demigod commanders and united by a single belief, operate in a style drastically different from the traditional demonic legions of Hell and the monstrous tides of the Abyss.

They did not pursue pure destruction and chaos, but rather combined strength, discipline, and tactical wisdom to their fullest extent.

The Red Heart Society's participation in the war had an immediate and significant effect.

The Hell faction's massive, previously crumbling defensive line was suddenly halted as if injected with a powerful coagulant.

Furthermore, thanks to the Red Heart Legion's expertise in localized counter-attack tactics, the Hell's Defense Line has even begun to center around these recaptured nodes.

[There seems to be a growing trend that the battle lines are being pushed back into the Abyss.]

This dramatic reversal of the battlefield situation made the Will of Hell feel that its decision was absolutely correct.

The Red Heart Society certainly didn't disappoint Him!

The return on this investment has far exceeded expectations!

However, compared to the ecstatic joy of the will of hell, what it inevitably brings is the extreme displeasure of the will of the abyss.

[However, because the Red Heart Society is a somewhat sinister organization, even though what's in front of us isn't the Red Heart Society headquarters, but rather an extension of a Seed Base sent out by the Red Heart Society.]

But this organization is still too strange.

[Every seemingly hopeless situation reveals unexpected resilience; every move carries a power of order that makes even chaos itself uncomfortable.]

[Considering the Red Heart Society's past miraculous reversals of fortune, and the possible unknown contingencies left behind by the founder who wielded the power of time and space.]

The Abyss's destructive impulse was unusually suppressed by a trace of caution, and it aptly refrained from investigating the deception the three gods of Agrippa had once committed against it.

At this stage, before fully understanding all of this, He does not want to engage in a large and uncontrollable direct conflict with the Red Heart Society, an organization full of variables.

Therefore, the will of the abyss made a strategic judgment based on its own understanding.

The Abyss army at the front lines needs to do nothing.

No additional strategic planning is needed!

[Based on His deductions regarding the Star Abyss branch, and His verification of the future using His immense power.]

It's normal and objective for an organization like the Red Heart Society, which relies heavily on a specific kind of idealism for cohesion, to encounter various problems.

Once the external pressure to survive is removed, countless problems and conflicts will quickly arise within the organization due to inherent flaws in the existing order, such as ideological differences, power distribution, and resource competition.

[Especially with the various factions within the chaotic camp influencing the conflict, this contradiction will only erupt more quickly.]

He only needs to observe detachedly and patiently wait for it to disintegrate and collapse on its own.

Ultimately, the founder of the Red Heart Society, who could reverse time and create miracles, is the organization's core, irreplaceable foundation and soul.

Now, this founder, along with the headquarters of the Red Heart Society, has turned into cosmic dust in the holy light.

[How far can the Soul Society, which has lost its soul, especially a so-called branch confined to a corner of the chaotic Star Abyss, possibly go?]

How long can that halo of idealism last?

They're nothing but a band of defeated soldiers who've lost their alpha, barely clinging to life in the cracks of the Star Abyss!

Therefore, the Abyss's Will didn't even bother to issue any form of threat or warning regarding the Red Heart Society's participation in the war.

He simply unleashed an even more ferocious and massive torrent of demonic forces, like a venting of rage, upon those relatively vulnerable war zones defended by Hell's native forces.

Since the Will of Hell has invited the Red Heart Society branch over, let Hell bear its most direct wrath.

[Meanwhile, let the Star Abyss branch slowly decay in peace!] (End of Chapter)
