Not praying for ten strings

During the demon-summoning ceremony, Aiwass finally recalled his past life's memories.
This should be an online game that his family's company had released and operated for six years. Now, his foster father was the leader of the latest version's antagonist organization.
He would expose his identity six years later, hesitate and then defect from the protagonist's side. Ultimately, because he decided to take a fatal strike meant for the player character, he was killed by his upright older brother in a transitional CG without even a chance to enter the main content.
——But the problem was not too significant. Aiwass also knew many secret advancement routes exclusive to the player character, as well as the Nurturing Secret Sequel regulations of the various Paths. He believed he could reverse his unfortunate fate……
So now there was only one issue left.
"According to the original plot, shouldn't I have been rescued by the protagonist before this lousy ceremony even began?"
Tied to the ceremonial altar as a sacrifice, Aiwass fell into contemplation.

When the plot-skips players into the game world

Why did the Shadow Demoness act as if she had never seen her before?


But he was also very certain that this was the Shadow Demoness...


Aiwass had used the Shepherd's Nurturing Skill to share a part of the Shadow Demon's strength with him, just as if he had transplanted an organ for Lily to sense shadows. Because of the proportion issue, the Shadow Demon might not have felt anything special about Lily, but Lily was clearly able to sense the presence of the "mother body."


Even if he encountered other Shadow Demons due to his third-level Shadow Affinity, he could easily distinguish whether it was the one contracted with Aiwass.


Fortunately, Lily's subconscious response made the Shadow Demoness hesitate. Following Lily's words, it continued the conversation but directly exposed its identity.
