The magic cards I made are absolutely flawless!

Chloeux: "4."

Claire: "......"

......

Morion quickly understood what Dekan meant.

"But how do you verify this hypothesis? We still lack key information to fill in and confirm the details."

"Don't worry, just watch my performance."

Dekan smiled smugly, then turned to look at the cross, which, illuminated by the glow of the stained glass, resembled a devout priest in prayer.

Even if you don't know all the processes and details.

Dekan is now fairly certain that one of the final mechanics of this dungeon will be written there—

Phrases like, "We must stop the resurrection of a certain vampire count or marquis; failure will have serious consequences," are used.

Dekan boldly speculated that the vampire's real name was the church's name, "Roderick."

Knowing a vampire's true name is a crucial condition for sealing them away.

Since the Holy Ritual Church paid a huge price to seal away such a powerful vampire, it would certainly not hide his true name, but rather let future generations know it in the most obvious way.

So if Dekan is the one who sealed the vampire and then wants to build a church on it, then Dekan will definitely name the church after the vampire's real name.

Dekan then spoke to the air:

"Our mission objective is to prevent the resurgence of Marquis Roderick. If the mission fails, Marquis Roderick will be teleported to random coordinates in the challenger's original world after the mission time limit expires."

After saying this, Dekan paused, as if waiting for something.

However, nothing happened, and Dekan sighed helplessly.

The Shadow World clearly does not approve of this behavior of skipping all steps and forcibly guessing the answer.

Then Dekan changed his wording again and repeated it to the air.

"Prevent Count Roderick's resurrection; if the mission fails..."

"Prevent the resurrection of Marquis Roderick, if this task..."

And so Dekan continued chanting, as if performing a one-man show on a bulletin board.

Each time, he only slightly modified the wording and expression.

And since he wasn't sure what rank Roderick was, he tried both the count and the marquis titles.

Morion's eye twitched; he had already guessed what Dekan was planning.

This was the first time he had ever seen someone so disgusting with the world of film.

Finally, after Dekan finished reading a certain sentence.

【...】

The quest prompts in the Shadow World have been refreshed.

A new mission objective has been unlocked because a challenger has reached the correct conclusion.

[Mission Objective 3: Prevent the resurrection of Marquis Roderick. If this mission fails, Marquis Roderick will be teleported to random coordinates in the challenger's original world after the mission time limit expires.]

"※! Is it really possible to trick people into giving away information about the Shadow World like this?!"

"Is all this guy can do is walk in a straight line?"

"He absolutely refuses to slowly unravel the mystery according to the mechanisms of the film world..."

The students of Hervenlitt Academy were familiar with Dekan's habit of skipping steps to find the answer because they had witnessed Dekan's conquest of the Demon Academy and the desolate old house.

But this is the first time the live stream has expanded to the Kingdom of Norton.

This was the first time most of the people had ever seen Dekan play this way.

……

The world of shadows may not necessarily acknowledge answers derived through unconventional reasoning.

However, the judgment mechanism in the Shadow World is highly objective.

When Dekan read out Mission Objective 3 verbatim, the Shadow World could no longer conclude that Dekan had arrived at the conclusion through guesswork.

I had no choice but to reveal the hidden mission objective 3.

If the world of shadows had emotions and could speak, then those last two lines of dialogue would surely be uttered through gritted teeth.

"See, that's how effective my reasoning method is."

Dekan said with a smug smile.

"Is it really okay for you to bully honest people like this in the Shadow World?"

Morion was a little worried that their actions would be targeted by the Shadow World.

"It's alright. Aside from giving me a couple of sarcastic remarks in the final review, it will still have to do things the proper way."

Dekan was already targeted last time.

As a result, the Shadow World still couldn't deduct their rewards.

Dekan already had a premonition that the Shadow World would scold him again during the mission evaluation.

But now he enjoys seeing the world of Shadows get frustrated and helpless.

160 Dekan captures and tortures a vampire marquis.

"Could you do that again? Try to trick objective 2 into revealing itself as well?"

Morion clapped his hands with an expression of admiration.

Now only mission objective 2 remains sealed.

"I really can't guess the specifics of mission objective 2, but now that the resurgence of the ultimate enemy has revealed its true colors, things will be easier from here on out."

Dekan flicked the sleeve of his priest's robe, then stepped down from the pulpit with his hands behind his back.

By following the steps based on the answer, one can roughly guess that there will definitely be guys who want to free Marquis Roderick and cause trouble.

however.

Dekan, the master of traps, has always excelled at defending his base.

He is arguably the most reassuring high ground defender for his teammates.

After all, he became famous in the Battle of Decantriche City, and even the Destroyer Bishop Evans was killed by him.

If the vampire marquis is at the eighth rank, then the enemy attempting to unseal the seal is most likely not at the marquis level, but probably just a seventh-rank vampire count.

What are your plans for the future?

Morion looked at Dekan's confident back and asked.

He is only good at deception, making money, and fooling his enemies.

Morion couldn't guess what Dekan, a demolition expert, would do next.

"Of course, it's to teach this sealed Marquis Roderick a lesson, to let him know what kind of place this is."

Dekan chuckled and shook his head.

Upon hearing Dekan's words, Cornelia understood and ran out of the church.

It seems they are preparing to move something from the courtyard into the house.

Dekan had previously inquired with his master about the principles behind breaking the vampire sealing technique.

Over the years, the vampires have naturally developed unsealing magic to counter this sealing technique, which was developed by the Holy Church.

However, the vampire's unsealing magic is roughly divided into two stages.

The first stage involves destroying the seal at the most basic level.

The second stage involves the blood sacrifice to break the seal.

When a blood sacrifice occurs to break the seal, it means that part of the seal has been broken.

Just like back in the mansion in the desolate mountains, the hidden boss, Viscount Augustine, had actually had the first stage of his seal broken at the beginning of the Shadow World, regaining consciousness and waiting for the blood sacrifice to unseal him.

He could choose to remain asleep or stay conscious and silently investigate the situation within the mansion to ensure he had all the information when the lockdown was lifted.

Of course, a vampire in this state would never let others know that he has regained consciousness.

For example, the Marquis of Roderick might be secretly observing the three of them right now from under the pulpit.

"Rumble rumble rumble".

The church doors were pushed open, and Cornelia dragged in a piece of equipment.

The base of the device resembles a turntable, and it is equipped with fixing devices all around.

This is a torture device that Dekan had free laborers make out of metal according to his design drawings yesterday.

It's called the "Vampire Blender".

Cornelia then took out a hammer and began chiseling at the pulpit.

Before long, she dug the coffin containing the Marquis Roderick from the ground, following the edge of the coffin.

She then easily lifted the coffin, stood it upright, and installed it on the turntable.

Then push the handrail on the device, making the coffin spin wildly at high speed.

With just a strong push from Cornelia, the vampire would spin at high speed for hundreds of cycles.

Cornelia then kept accelerating the spinning coffin, while Dekan and Morion watched from the first row of benches in the preaching area.

They held snacks and drinks in their hands, and occasionally fed the cat teacher.

Ten minutes or so passed.

Morion: "This guy should be awake by now."

Dekan: "He's definitely awake. I bet he's just putting up with it, since it's a matter of dignity. Imagine if a dignified vampire marquis cried out because he was dizzy—wouldn't that be incredibly undignified?"

Morion: "If this keeps spinning, his brains will be shaken to a crisp."
