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

"Adolf Von Menzel, my lord," Count Leipzig forced out a smile of affinity, "Of course, I'm aware of your identity..."


Although he wasn't sure if Red Chancellor was dead or not... when he tried to seek help, the hollow echo from the depths of his bloodline gave him a not so favorable answer.


—Even if Red Chancellor wasn't dead, all connections with them had been severed.


To him, that was no different from being dead.


But Adolf's gaze towards him grew colder.


Suddenly, Adolf asked softly, "I hear you have a unique understanding of art?"


Upon hearing this topic, Count Leipzig perked up.


Even his previously timid and cautious voice grew much louder: "I have sculpted other 'selves' into immortal artworks—are you interested in my works? Haha... I mean, after all, you are a renowned artist throughout Star Antimony, receiving your praise would greatly delight me."
