“What’s… with that situation?”
In fact, many people witnessed the Grand Bodhisattva burning his flesh with the raging flame of Buddhist lotus. At first, they thought it was an illusion, being dim-eyed and all.
However, it was only after the Grand Bodhisattva’s young body had completely burned into ashes and a ray of golden light was shot into the Buddhist lotus above his head that they believed that the Grand Bodhisattva, the notorious Underworld God had unexpectedly… committed suicide, just like that?
The Underworld God committed suicide?
Who would believe it?
Like it or not, that was the fact. Alex saw it as well. Shocked, he, too, looked at Shelly on Persephone’s Folly Bridge.
Shelly simply looked at the sky as her beautiful hair fluttered in front of her brow and the elegant umbrella blocking half of her.
Swoosh!
The Buddhist lotus floated above Alex’s head.
Alex was horrified. That was the ominous object that had burned the Underworld God into ashes. If it were to cause some sparks to his crown, he would be in deep trouble. He hurriedly dodged it via Instant Teleportation. Immediately afterward, the trialists standing around him also fled in panic.
“Run!”
”This is spectral fire!”
Someone shouted. As soon as they thought that the Buddhist lotus had burned the Underworld God, the great boss of that world, into ashes in less than ten seconds, they were extremely terrified. Even Dorothy, Mystic Maiden, and the others ran away one after another.
However, everyone soon realized that the Buddhist lotus was only chasing Alex. It paid no attention to the others.
“Ah! That had to be the fixation of the Underworld God. Sir has destroyed the Underworld God’s domain, so he wants to take revenge.”
“Sigh, sir is really tough, but a capable person would have to work harder. It‘s acceptable. Let’s… Not bother sir here.”
Everyone was worried whether the Buddhist lotus would go berserk later and kill the trialists here, so they just escaped right away.
‘Grand Bodhisattva, just kill yourself if you wanted to do so. You should’ve killed this thing, too, when you committed suicide. If you want to leave it behind, leave it to your descendants.’
It was then that two chains shot out of Persephone’s Folly Bridge and bound Alex, shackling him in place. “Hey, Shelly! What the hell is wrong with you?! Let go of me now!”
“Can’t you see that you’ve put me in danger?!” Alex shouted.
As he saw the Buddhist lotus get closer, he seemingly saw himself getting burned into ashes.
It had to be very painful, right?
Shelly looked indifferent as she said, “What are you afraid of?”
She walked down Persephone’s Folly Bridge and looked at Alex. She even stretched her leg and kicked him. “How is this not terrifying? Didn’t you see the Underworld God getting burned to death?”
Shelly said, “It won’t burn you to death. This is a present that Grand Bodhisattva left for you.”
