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

Everything happened just as Aiwass predicted.


The impact of the demons' descent on Star Antimony was not lasting—the true disaster only lasted one night.


The Tail-Biting Ring Ceremony was initiated when the sun set; by the time the sun rose the next day, the demons quietly withdrew unanimously.


There were no demons visible on the streets—upon the orders of the Fallen Celestial Marshal, all demons were retreating.


The Fallen Celestial Marshal casually found a dark place to harbor the lower-level demons that were akin to cannon fodder.


Meanwhile, the upper-level demons basically moved into the Royal Palace and the estates of the nobles.


——As for the original owners of these estates, their outcomes varied.


A group of nobles responded swiftly. They quickly pledged allegiance to the Fallen Celestial Marshal and mostly preserved their power and wealth intact—the price was their children, wives, parents, and servants being randomly selected to become new demons.
