The Deeds Of An Extremely Arrogant Villain Aristocrat

Chapter 60: Nothing

Stop right there. Youve passed.

The voice came out of nowhere.

Abel instinctively turned around, but there was no one there.

Then, next. He immediately sharpened his senses and searched for any presence. Although far from being proficient, Abel consciously refrained from using his magic-sensing ability, which he should have used many times before already, because he understood it unconsciously at that moment.

This way is better, he thought.

However, the result remained the same.

Except for the trembling men in front of him, he couldnt find a single person. No weird presence either.

Thats why Abel remained vigilant without letting his guard down and concentrated.

Youre strong enough Oh, now that I look closely, you. Black hair and red eyes. Youre not from this country, are you? No, even more than that in our

Where are you!! Show yourself!! Is Lily Is Lily safe?

Abel couldnt contain his emotions any longer and blurted those words out.

The strangely calm voice, devoid of any tension, was unpleasant and unbearable for him at this current situation.

The owner of the voice was Nicole. She was the person who had previously hired mercenaries and instructed them to abduct Luke.

Lily-chan, shes safe. Ill let you hear her voice nowAbel.

Lily!!

The voice switched.

A slight sense of relief that it was indeed her voice. And at the same time, the despair of not knowing the enemys whereabouts, as if nothing had been saved, flooded into Abel.

Im sorry Im sorry, sorry, sorry Im really sorry. Im sorry I was careless I wasnt thinking at all Even though I always act so high and mighty, Im such an idiot. Im really sorry. I

Dont apologize anymore, Lily. Its not your fault Its all their fault,

Abel hasnt yet heard Lily sound like that, sound so weak and apologizing,, he felt his heart being torn apart because of it. Instead of asking for help, she uttered an apology, saying Im sorry.

(Lily is strong, after all)

She regretted more than anything else that she had become a burden to Abel.

Knowing that, Abel felt frustrated and pained.

Unforgivable. There was no way he could forgive it.

If anything happens to Lily, I will never forgive you.

Darkness gleamed in Abels eyes.

It firmly captured Nicole behind the unseen crystal, sending a shiver down her spine.

Good. If you want her released, obey my orders.

However, even Nicole had things she would never yield on. She, who lacked special powers, knew that she had to make use of everything available to her.

No matter how cruel it may be.

Its not like she didnt feel guilt.

But there are things she must accomplish even if it means killing her own heart. 

Thats all there is to it.

Therefore, she would provide a choice. A choice to make.

By the day after tomorrow, kill Luke Wizaria Gilbert. If you do that, Ill set her free.

In an instant, Abel tasted despair as if his heart had been seized.

Lily or Luke.

Two options presented before him.

Ugh

He couldnt accept it immediately, nor did he possess the power to overcome the current situation.

Abel felt as if the night had enveloped him even darker.

Ill say it again. Kill Luke Wizaria Gilbert by the day after tomorrow. If you do that, Ill set her free.

Nicole presented the choice.

However, she didnt give him enough time.

She knew from experience that it would be more effective that way.

Dont forget, Im always watching. Its futile to entertain any strange thoughts. Well then, good luck.

W-wait!! Wait, please!!

He reflexively shouted, but there was no response.

Still, there was something he wanted to say.

Lily!!! You dont have to worry about anything!!! I will definitely save you!!! Just endure a little longer!!! Everything will be alright!!! Dont worry about anything, okay!!!

Abel shouted in a loud voice, causing his breath to quicken. Hoping that this voice would reach her.

The remnants of the mercenaries had already fled.

Abel was aware of that, but with Nicoles presence being so uncertain, he had no choice but to let them go.

Haahaa

He clearly felt a thread snap within himself.

Abel slowly and quietly kneeled down, placing his hands on the ground.

And he lightly punched the ground.

With a little more force, he punched the ground.

And then, with even greater force, he punched the ground again

.

It gradually gained momentum.

No matter how much blood flowed from his fists, Abel continued to punch the ground without stopping.

Again and again, repeatedly, over and over

Aaaaahhhhh!!!

A scream that tore through the silence of the night.

Frustration, his own powerlessness, anger, hatred. Abel screamed, as if to expel all of those mixed-up emotions from within him.

I cant do anything!!! I cant protect anything!!! No matter how much!!! No matter how hard I try!!! I cant protect anything!!! Nothing nothing

Tears fell onto the ground, drop by drop.

Frustrated. Incredibly frustrated with his own helplessness.

Abel despised himself for being unable to do anything but taste that frustration. He felt miserable, hollow.

Kill Luke Wizaria Gilbert by the day after tomorrow.

Nicoles words echoed in his mind.

He couldnt help but be reminded of how cruel this world was, no matter how much he disliked it.

What am I supposed to do? What am I supposed to do

There was no one to reach out a hand to Abel, who could only hang his head and sink into the depths of despair.

He didnt possess the power to save everything.

In that case, there was no choice but to make a decision
