The magic cards I made are absolutely flawless!

Meanwhile, the challengers who were exploring other classrooms elsewhere noticed the strange changes in their taskbar.

Among them are veterans who have explored the world of shadows multiple times.

Based on their experience, mission objective 1 (increasing exploration progress) is a "routine mission" with a large workload but relatively dispersed difficulty.

Mission objective 2 (rescuing three humans) should be a "high-difficulty mission" that can only be completed by clearing the elite room or the BOSS room.

They have not found any human beings in the classrooms they have entered so far.

The humans awaiting rescue are most likely only found in higher-difficulty elite rooms or BOSS rooms.

During the exploration, they also need to gradually gather clues to find clues about the BOSS room and the BOSS's weaknesses.

but.

How could this task be completed already?!

They even discovered that the metrics for mission objective 2 had begun to increase steadily at a constant rate!

Finally, it stopped at the extremely bizarre "Mission Objective 2: Rescue at least three humans, current progress 101/3"!

而作为“限制任务”的任务目标3则是在“目前伪装完好5/6” 和“目前伪装完好6/6”之间反复横跳。

Is something wrong with this shadow world? Is it broken?

While they were overjoyed and surprised, they also felt uneasy.

I've never seen or heard of such a thing before...

Hopefully nothing terrible will happen next.

......

Meanwhile, the viewing hall at Hervenlit Academy outside the arena was in complete chaos.

Students and teachers alike were buzzing about Dekan's outrageous actions.

Many people watched with twitching lips, having just recovered from their stunned state.

Is this how you play with the fourth-order shadow world?

I've never heard of someone being able to do whatever they want in the Shadow World while being above their level!

Even a highly skilled and experienced player entering the fourth-tier Shadow World wouldn't be able to achieve a score of 101/3 on a difficult mission within just over an hour of the game starting!

"Is the problem with Dekan, or with this Demon Academy...?"

Some students couldn't help but have this doubt.

"Is it possible... that Dekan simply found the school that's best suited for him...?"

......

The Knights' Academy Conference Room.

It's eerily quiet now.

The professors, who had been watching the battle between Dekan and Cornelia, gradually went from being worried to feeling relieved, and then their expressions became increasingly strange.

Is this what the new students are like this year?

What kind of situation haven't they seen?

Human brainwashing demon?

They've never seen anything like it before...

They even began to suspect Dekan, no, including Cornelia!

Could these two guys actually be demons?!

"...Are we worried that they might seem a bit superfluous?"

Professor Arno pressed his temples and looked at the dean.

He had thought he would no longer be surprised by Dekan's behavior, no matter how outrageous it was.

However, it now seems that we cannot take the lower limit of humanity as the lower limit of Dekan.

He couldn't imagine what Dekan would do if he encountered a "challenger-versus-player" world in the future.

"..."

The dean also fell silent.

In the dean's opinion, Dekan wasn't that terrible during the entrance exam.

But ever since Dekan met Cornelia.

Everything has changed.

The two people in the world who should never have met have met.

Among the many popular storylines, the "boy meets girl" trope often involves two people healing and redeeming each other.

And then Dekan and Cornelia met...

It's about blocking each other's path to humanity, and walking hand in hand into an endless abyss...

023 Cornelia learned the memory erasure magic

In the cooking class.

"Report! We've finished shouting it one hundred times!"

Baron Bachcher shouted with great enthusiasm.

"Very good, now tell me what you know about this school."

Dekan stood by the window, looking at the scenery outside, and said.

Dekan had been wandering around the cooking classroom, inspecting everything.

He discovered that outside the window was a bottomless abyss.

The entire school seemed to be a small, isolated island suspended above purgatory.

It seems there's no way to escape outside the map.

What information would you like to know?

Baron Bachcher asked somewhat hesitantly.

He was afraid that uttering a bunch of nonsense would anger Dekan.

Dekan thought for a moment and walked over to Cornelia, who was stepping on Baron Bachcher.

He pulled the red demon ticket from Cornelia's pocket and waved it in front of Baron Bachcher.

"what's it for?"

"Dekan asked."

"This is a demon pass, a reward given by the teacher to outstanding students. If you have it, even if you encounter the headmaster in the hallway during class, you can hand it to him to avoid being attacked once, and the headmaster will not attack you again for half an hour."

Baron Bachcher answered.

Do you have a demon pass?

“I have one.”

"where?"

"In my shirt pocket."

"Okay, I know."

Dekan has no intention of releasing Baron Bachcher now and making him produce his pass.

Although Baron Batchell was subdued by him, this kind of cowardly and bullying devil should not be trusted too much.

Dekan's body is fragile; given Baron Bachcher a chance, he could kill Dekan.

Although Dekan has long since donned the crown of thorns, he is now also afraid of pain.

Dekan said, "Next, tell me the location of every facility in the school, as well as the characteristics of the teachers."

Baron Bachel hesitated for a moment before replying, "...I don't know the other teachers very well, because the teachers at this school change frequently."

It seems that the teacher mortality rate at this school is quite high.

Do you know who the best teacher in the school is?

Dekan asked.

"It's undoubtedly the principal, but the principal isn't always at the school. He only appears at certain random times, so there's a possibility that teachers might be pushed to the limit and take risks to break the rules. Moreover, the principal only hunts down teachers who break the rules."

Baron Bachcher answered.

Dekan nodded.

This shows that rules can be used to counter teachers, but it would be difficult to use rules to drive teachers to their deaths.

Faced with certain death either way, they would definitely choose to fight to the death.

However, Dekan also felt something was strange.

If the principal is the one who hunts down and kills teachers but doesn't threaten students, then he probably isn't the boss.

If the principal isn't the boss, could there be other dangerous teachers?

"Besides the principal and the director, are there any other school staff members who are particularly dangerous or exceed the proper standards?"

Despite having completed mission objective 2, Dekan remains very interested in information about the boss.

If he's confident, he'll try to clear the boss room.

The rewards for completing the Shadow World are related to the final rating you obtain.

Furthermore, it will be related to the enemies you defeat, the deeds you accomplish, and the spoils you acquire in the Shadow World.

If you don't clear the BOSS room, even if you do clear it, the rewards will be a tier lower.

If it were a different theme in the film world, Dekan would not be so greedy for rewards.

But this is a demon-themed shadow world.
