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

Whether it's the Pure White Saintess pretending to be attacked, or the "rescue" by the Cardinal Archbishops. Including their current "questioning" and "answers," all are part of a pre-arranged plan.


Because this is also in the interest of the Cardinal Archbishops.


Indeed, some among them want to become the Pope. But the one who most wanted to be Pope was the now deceased Cardinal Loki.


These Cardinal Archbishops don't vie for the papacy out of a lust for power. Rather, the "old antiques" among them believe that an Amberficated Saintess is unable to lead the Holy Nation properly.


However, the Saintess has shown them that Amberficate now has the possibility of healing and restoration... so, compared to letting another Cardinal, who is in opposition to them, become Pope, it's better to continue letting the Saintess lead.


If everyone can't be completely satisfied, at least they can feel "it's passable."
