The problem was that there was no access to that; the lens itself wouldn't unscrew from the adapter, and the adapter couldn't be removed from the body until the lens was unscrewed. It was like a pair of teenagers kissing and their braces lock.
I had forgotten that the lens must first be unscrewed from the adapter. I was reluctant to use much force, and when nothing rotated, I panicked. A bit more force solved the problem.

Just reach in with a small screwdriver, thin knife blade or fingernail your choice, and push it towards the center of the lens opening while tuning the adapter to dismount it.
