Chapter 176: Dekan Thinking About The Affairs Of The Shadow Worlds

"Never had I thought that... I had already met you many years ago..." Dekan's master's words were filled with pain. The more she tried to delve, the more she couldn't quite grasp her memories.

"Dekan... who are you really..." She desperately wanted to retrieve her memories. But no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't pick up even a tiny fragment.

"I don't know either. Undoubtedly, I was born sixteen years ago on January 1st and is currently a bright youth living in this world," Dekan answered helplessly.

"That said, Master, you don't need to worry. Based on the images in your memory, it's highly unlikely we were enemies."

In the scenes from Dekan's master's memory, from the viewpoint, Dekan’s master was standing beside him.

Knowing Dekan's nature, he wouldn't have such a relaxed expression if the person or demon standing next to him wasn't someone he trusted deeply.

Dekan's master's emotions were restless and uneasy. After seemingly pondering for a long time, she finally gave up on continuing this futile effort.

"Dekan, help me... help me retrieve my memories. I've forgotten something very important!" Dekan's master's voice carried a pleading tone, something Dekan had never heard from her before.

She seemed more and more anxious as she thought about it.

"Don't worry, Master. As I’ve promised you before, I will help you retrieve them," Dekan said, unusually without any provocation towards Dekan's master.

"Mmm..." Dekan's master seemed particularly exhausted in her thoughts, likely from the strain. Feeling reassured by Dekan's words, she soon drifted back into slumber.

"..." Dekan confirmed that his master was peacefully asleep.

"This tough old lady actually has a vulnerable side," Dekan couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

"You said what?"

Suddenly, Dekan's master's thoughts came through again.

"Aren't you supposed to be asleep?! Why are you still bantering?!"

"I knew you'd be cheeky again. All meals for tomorrow - breakfast, lunch, and dinner - are mine. No objections."

"At most, I'll let you have breakfast and lunch."

"All three meals are mine, else I’ll make you commit social suicide."

"Hmph! If you say 'Onii-chan~ Daisuki,' then all three meals are yours."

"You won't have dinner the day after tomorrow."

...

While Dekan and his master were arguing as usual…

"Mister Priest, are you alright?" The lord dared to ask. He saw Dekan had been lost in thought for quite some time.

"Hmm? I'm fine, just remembered something about Lord Lunen," Dekan spoke honestly.

"I see. Mister, are you planning to return to the Northern Front? The winter is coming, and the situation up north is bound to get worse."

The lord's face couldn't help but show a worried expression.

Although he ruled over the southern border, he understood the importance of the situation in the north.

"Mister Lord, I have two things I'd like to entrust to you," Dekan thought for a moment before speaking.

"Please, go ahead. If there's anything I can do to help, I will do my best," the lord replied.

"I will give you 1000 gold coins. Please entrust it to someone reliable and have them take these 1000 gold coins to the northern border, burying them at a certain location."

Mauleon had left Dekan with a total of 2050 gold coins. Even with their extravagant living for the next seven days, it would be difficult to spend it all. So, Dekan decided to set aside a portion and send it to the north.

If the Shadow Worlds were interconnected…

It was very likely that the next time Dekan entered another Shadow World relating to the Holy Kingdom, he would be able to find the substantial sum of 1000 gold coins and retrieve it for his use should his spawn point be nearby.

The Holy Kingdom was vast, spanning several Norton Kingdoms in size. In fact, in Dekan's current world, no kingdom or empire had an area as large as the Holy Kingdom.

So, even if the southern and northern parts of the Holy Kingdom were completely different from each other, akin to two different counties, Dekan wouldn’t be surprised.

With only seven days left for Dekan and Cornelia in the Shadow World, even if they rushed to the north with all their might, they wouldn't be able to reach the northern part of the Holy Kingdom. At most, they could reach the Holy Capital.

That was why Dekan needed to entrust the lord to transport the gold coins for him.

"No problem, I swear I will safely deliver the gold coins for you!" The lord patted his chest, earnestly replying.

"And the other thing you wanted me to do?" he asked.

"The other thing is easy. Just lend me the city's announcement systems for a bit," Dekan requested.

"Done!" The lord agreed without hesitation.

Dekan stretched lazily, relieving the stiffness in his body from sitting under the tree for too long.

Once they finished helping the kind lord deal with the vampire servants in the afternoon, Dekan and Cornelia would be able to leave the city.

"It's time to spread the faith," Dekan murmured to himself.

"Meow meow meow! Is it finally time?" Teacher Cat leaped from behind Dekan, landing on his shoulder, asking near his cheek.

"Yeah, this Shadow World is coming to an end. It's time to play the ending theme for the audience," Dekan replied.

He didn't plan to continue live streaming the remaining part of the journey. After all, it was just a luxurious seven-day tour of the Holy Kingdom without much relevance to the Shadow World.

"Didn’t you mention that you’re going to get back at Mauleon, meow?" Teacher Cat asked.

"Yeah, that doesn’t conflict with our trip," Dekan simply responded calmly, as if he had planned it all along.

"Meow?"

...

In the real world, many viewers heard Dekan's announcement that the Shadow World was ending, and amidst a buzz of whispers, began to leave one after another. Some were interested in the ending theme that Dekan mentioned, but most didn't really care much about the ending theme and post-credits scenes after the main features.

Suddenly, the livestream screen switched.

Dekan connected the [Magic Recording Crystal] to the [Shadow World Viewing Program.]

Inside this crystal was the first music video of their company's girl group.

The screen, previously pitch black, now had a faint glow like the dim lights of a stage before a performance. Three slender figures were standing like delicate dolls.

From their posture, they appeared elegant and mysterious, like art pieces created by the Goddess of Beauty.

At this moment, some viewers turned back to the livestream.

Seeing others turn back, more and more people, out of curiosity, stopped again to gaze at Dekan's livestream.

"There are beautiful girls! Why didn't you say so earlier?"

"Tsk, not interested."

"It's just Dekan trying to promote a few girls."

Some viewers now showed clear interest, while others remained indifferent.

Amidst the viewers' anticipation or disdain, the sweet harmonies of the three girls finally began.

"Oh dear Goddess, please convey my throbbing heart to him~?"

The appearances of the three girls were still hidden in the dark but their sweet voices made more viewers unable to resist turning back to watch.

A lively and rhythmic prelude began to play.

As the prelude ended, a faint light fell on the girl standing on the left.

Under the gradually brightening light, she appeared like an angel bathed in radiance.

"At this moment, I am at a loss, only able to pray to my dear oh Goddess~?"Finally, the viewers could see clearly the mysterious white-haired girl who was the first to start singing.
