Zongman, start your journey to godhood by saving the heroine of anime

"Yes!"

Avril nodded.

"Judging from your appearance, you must be the last maid left in Grandpa's mansion! Honestly, Grandpa didn't even explain this to me in his letters."

"A maid!???"

"Yes, you made me mistake you for a doll."

Seeing that the person in front of her seemed to be someone her grandfather knew, Avril playfully started to tease him.

"Oh right, where is that little pet named Dalian? Grandpa asked me in his letter to take good care of it. It sounds like such a cute name, it must be something like a cat or dog!"

"Cats and dogs???????"

Ignoring the girl's clenched teeth as she repeated herself, Avril simply held up another finger, looking somewhat troubled.

"I've never raised a pet before and I don't know how to take care of it... Oh, and! Will Darian poop and pee everywhere? If there's poop everywhere, it'll be such a hassle to clean up."

"Urinating or defecating anywhere???"

"Huh? Why aren't you answering my question!"

Avril asked, somewhat puzzled.

"I'll answer that for you... Baka!!!"

Avril was met with a fierce headbutt from the girl.

"Ouch...it hurts!"

"Pfft! Haha!"

Seeing Avril clutching her head and groaning in pain, Bai Ye finally couldn't help but burst out laughing.

In fact, the moment Bai Ye saw the doll girl, the Book of Omniscience within him revealed the girl's identity to him.

Dantalian, or rather, Dantalian, refers to the purple-haired girl standing before them.

She is the labyrinth bookshelf that seals 900,666 illusory books. Although she looks like a loli, she has actually lived for thousands of years.

Of course, these are not things that Bai Ye cares about. There is only one thing that Bai Ye cares about.

That is...

Dalian is also one of her many two-dimensional waifus.

All I can say is that it's yet another extremely old anime.

Even before this incident, Bai Ye had heard the name of the anime "Dantalian Bookshelf" more than once.

Even so, Bai Ye still had to wait until the Book of Omniscience scanned before recalling the anime plot.

Let's turn our attention back to the two girls with red and swollen foreheads.

Bai Ye saw it.

Avril, who had just gotten up from the ground clutching her forehead, was the first to start the accusations.

"Why did you suddenly bump your head against me, you maid?"

Avril felt completely bewildered.

He had only wanted to ask the girl about what his grandfather had written in his letter, but the girl suddenly attacked him.

But Darian got even angrier when she heard Avril still calling her maid.

"You... Hmph!?"

"I absolutely will not allow you, you bastard, to become the second-generation key guardian of the Dantalian Bookshelf!"

"?"

Hearing the purple-haired Darian's angry rebuke, Avril also became angry. "Do I need your approval to inherit my grandfather's bookshelf?"

He immediately frowned, wanting to refute the girl.

Bai Ye, standing to the side, saw that the two women seemed to be about to start fighting.

Finally, he stopped watching the show and stepped in to smooth things over.

"Okay, stop making trouble."

Bai Ye first stopped Avril, who wanted to go up and argue with him.

"But..."

Avril looked at Bai Ye pitifully, revealing her slightly swollen forehead.

Seeing this, Bai Ye felt somewhat helpless and pointed at Dalian to explain.

"This girl is actually the Dalian you mentioned in your grandfather's letter. You just called her a pet and said she urinates and defecates anywhere, so her bumping into you is considered even!"

"what!"

Avril's angry expression immediately turned into surprise.

Her face immediately turned bright red.

After all, the girl wasn't unreasonable. When she realized that the reason might indeed be that she had unintentionally said the wrong thing, Avril's anger instantly dissipated, and she even felt a little embarrassed.

"Humph!"

When Dalian saw that Bai Ye had explained things for her, she decided not to say anything more. She simply crossed her arms and gave him an expression that said, "I absolutely do not approve of you."

Seeing this, Bai Ye found it rather cute. He then turned to look directly at Dalian and spoke again.

"And you...Dantalian, or rather, Dantalian!"

Upon hearing Bai Ye call out her real name, Dalian slightly turned her head back to look at Bai Ye.

A hint of curiosity seemed to appear in her eyes, as if she wanted to hear what this man, who had recognized her true identity at a glance, had to say.

"Your name comes from Dantalion, one of the seventy-two demons of Solomon, doesn't it?"

"According to the description in the myth, it is a demon god that appears in various forms of men and women, and when it appears, it will always be holding a book in its right hand."

As he spoke, he glanced at the book that had been taken from the girl's right hand as she stood up.

"That's right! The description is exactly like you right now!"

"Ah! So, does that mean this little girl is a demon from mythology?"

Before Dalian could reply, Avril, who had overheard Bai Ye's description, became interested and chimed in.

"You are the devil!"

Clearly, Dallian was angry again.

He crossed his arms and glared at Avril through gritted teeth.

"I am the Black Reader Princess, who possesses the knowledge of the Phantom Book, and the manager of the Grotto-heaven within the Pot."

When Darian spoke, she uttered two names that left Avril completely baffled, and then looked at Avril as if she were an idiot.

"Besides, are you an idiot? How could something like demons, as described in myths, possibly exist?"

"Huh! It doesn't exist?"

Upon hearing Dalian's sharp tongue, Avril immediately turned to Bai Ye for confirmation.

Upon hearing this, Bai Ye smiled.

"Demons certainly exist."

Having received Bai Ye's affirmation, Avril turned to look at Darian, a hint of smugness in her eyes.

After all, as the Holy Son, Bai Ye definitely has more authority to speak on the question of whether demons exist or not than the little girl in front of him.

However, Dalian had no idea of ​​Bai Ye's identity.

He looked at Bai Ye as if he were seeing a second idiot.

Chapter Seventy: Forcibly Unlocking the Lock and the Heaven Within the Pot (Bonus Chapter 7 & 8)

"In this day and age, are there still fools who believe in the existence of demons?"

"Although many of the mythical books that record mythological stories do indeed record the power of demons, my name was indeed given to me by someone named after a demon."

"But... demons..."

Dalian was about to launch into a long explanation of the origin of her name when Bai Ye interrupted her with facts.

Bai Ye then gave Avril a meaningful look.

Let the girl no longer hide herself, revealing her wings and halo as a two-winged angel.

Then...

The moment Avril revealed her true form as a reincarnated angel, pure holy light instantly filled the previously dim underground library.

The incomparably holy power was so intense that even Dalian, who had thousands of years of experience, was shocked, her eyes widening and her mouth forming an "O".

Then I heard Bai Ye's voice echoing in my ears.

"After all! Before you stand the holy son and angels of mythology!"

"you..."

Dalian was extremely surprised, and then frowned.

"I couldn't sense the power of the Illusionary Book."

"But...how is this possible! Could you really be angels?"

The girl, whose mind was somewhat blank, was clearly caught in the unbelievable reality before her eyes, clashing with the worldview she had formed over thousands of years of life.

The girl stood there dumbfounded, her mouth agape, completely stunned and unable to move.

Upon witnessing this scene, Bai Ye felt that the girl's expression was truly adorable.

However, after seeing a golden keyhole on the girl's chest.

Recalling the famous scene of Bai Ye unlocking the lock in the original work, I suddenly had an interesting idea.

He secretly took out the golden key that Avril had given him before he entered from his Holy Lance space.

Then, taking advantage of the moment when the girl was still doubting herself.

"Crack!"

Taking advantage of her unpreparedness, Bai Ye inserted the golden key into the keyhole in front of the girl.

Then rotate 180° clockwise.

"what?"

Feeling her inner world being instantly opened, Dalian finally came to her senses in a daze. She glanced at the golden key on her chest, then at Bai Ye, who had used the key to ambush her without any sense of martial ethics.

Then came a deeper collapse of his worldview and self-doubt.

"impossible!"

"why?"

"I do not believe!"

"Without my approval, even if you have the key, you could never open my inner world."

"why?"

Seeing the black vortex that had been opened in her chest, Dalian felt like a virtuous young girl who had been forcibly bullied by Bai Ye.

His eyes were filled with confusion, helplessness, and disbelief.

To this

Bai Ye suddenly frowned.

because...

Just after Bai Ye unlocked the door with the key, he instantly felt a strange contractual force that wanted to connect him with Dalian.
