Chapter 150: Dekan Appears to Have No Problems

"A tier 6 Shadow World, this could be a bit dangerous," seeing the information prompt before his eyes, Dekan stood in place and murmured. It was unknown if it was due to the discovery of his deception in the previous Shadow World or being targeted by the Shadow Worlds. Normally, as a tier 3, he shouldn't be able to appear in a tier 6 Shadow World. It could be said that the Shadow Worlds regarded him highly. Fortunately, this serene space should be relatively safe, more harmonious than the starting scenes of the previous two times.

He turned around and observed his surroundings. Strands of sunlight poured in through the window mullions, rendering the originally slightly dim interior of the building with its colorful stained glass vividly bright and dark. In the middle, various depictions of gods on crosses and towering walls created a feeling of being in a different world.

Dekan confirmed once again that he was in an exquisite and small but spacious church. However, this time, there was no one around him, not even Cornelia.

"Cornelia?" Dekan called out in a low voice, with a hint of probing. In this quiet and solemn church, even a slightly louder voice would echo. However, Dekan received no response for quite some time.

"This is really troublesome. How can I live without Cornelia?" Dekan held his head. After experiencing the previous two encounters with the Shadow Worlds, Dekan had gotten used to waking up and seeing Cornelia beside him. Now, not finding her instantly, Dekan felt a sudden sense of loneliness. The sense of safety and reassurance was gone.

Dekan didn't like Shadow Worlds with random starting points. Not only could he not quickly find Mauleon, but Cornelia was also missing. Moreover, Dekan couldn't help but worry. Would Cornelia be deceived? Would she have no money to eat? Would she be bullied? No, he had to go and find her quickly.

Dekan took slightly faster steps toward the exit of the church. Maybe Cornelia was just outside the church or not far away. Dekan was sure this was the first thing he needed to do.

"Don't worry about her. In high-tier Shadow Worlds where everyone is dispersed at the start, everyone will get a relatively safe initial identity as long as they don't trigger events mistakenly. Basically, it's safe." Dekan’s master seemed to sense Dekan's worries and spoke in his mind.

Dekan's steps gradually stopped.

"I'm just worried that she might trigger events by mistake," Dekan responded with a helpless tone in his mind.

"Listen to me first," his master continued, "I have an impression of this Holy Ritual Church. I've been to the Shadow World where it exists."

Dekan: "?"

His master asked, "Do you still remember the last Shadow World, 'Desolate Mountain Blizzard Cineaste,' where the vampire Viscount Augustine was sealed by the church?"

Dekan nodded, "Is that church the Holy Ritual Church?"

"Yes, in the world I know, the Holy Ritual Church opposes the immortal vampires," Dekan’s master’s tone was affirmative, "If what I know, what you encountered last time, and the current situation are all from the same world, then if you can cross that dangerous terrain, you might even find that desolate mountain mansion in this Shadow World."

"So the enemies in this Shadow World are likely to be vampires again?" Dekan asked. Apart from the Shadow World ''Desolate Mountain Blizzard Cineaste,' there was also the epic spell card 'Blood Pact Incantation' that Dekan encountered in Tristan City that held connections with vampires. These vampires were not easy to deal with. At least, they were more troublesome than most demons. After all, Dekan was skilled in dealing with demons, but he had only dealt with one particularly embarrassing vampire.

"Yes, most likely," Dekan's master responded, "Last time you faced a vampire viscount in a very poor state, and you outsmarted him."

"In this tier 6 Shadow World, there may even be fully powered vampire counts and marquises. They are not only difficult to kill but also excel in disguise, possessing some troublesome innate magic."

"So you must be careful and investigate information before triggering events recklessly," Dekan's master continued.

After listening, Dekan nodded slightly. Before finding Cornelia, he needed to act cautiously. If he really encountered these unkillable high-tier vampires, he would be in a lot of trouble.

"Thank you for the crucial information, Master. You are really considerate."

"Haha, I just don't want to accompany you to your demise."

"Don't say such tsundere lines, it makes you sound like a pitiful character."

"..."

"Ah, my bad, my bad! You're a good person, a really good person!"

Although Dekan's master suspected that Dekan was being sarcastic again, she couldn't find evidence. With a cold snort in Dekan's heart, she fell back into slumber.

"Well, if that's the case, let's stick to the usual cautious approach. Of course, the first thing is to find Cornelia. It would be nice if I could also find Mauleon. If he's around..."

Dekan subconsciously raised his hand and looked down at his attire. He realized he was wearing a black robe.

Hey, it looked quite similar to the outfit worn by Evans, the Cardinal of Ruin.

Indeed, he was a clergyman.

Dekan couldn't help but smile. Apart from starting separately from Cornelia, his luck this time was quite good. As soon as he saw the Shadow World prompt mentioning the Holy Ritual Church being revered, he obtained the identity of a clergyman. This identity was indeed perfect for someone with a kind and noble character like him.

Wait a minute!

Dekan suddenly realized a problem. Would he now appear differently in the eyes of the audience in the livestream?!

Meanwhile, thanks to the contact with the College of Alchemy, the broadcast range of this time's Team Beautiful Heart’s Shadow World raid would expand to various major cities of the Norton Kingdom. Even though it was still morning, many people interested in Dekan went to watch.

However, the main point of their discussion at the moment was not the fact that Dekan entered the tier 6 Shadow World.

"Is this guy really not the Mr. D mentioned by the Resurgence Church?!"

The audience noticed this serious issue. To the native inhabitants of this Shadow World, Dekan might appear as a legitimate priest. But Dekan's current appearance, captured and broadcasted to the real world, was like an official portrait for the "Cardinal of Pain!”

Even if Dekan was innocent, if there's a bird that looks like a duck, quacks like a duck, then it's a duck.

Dekan's consistent behavior resembling the Cardinal of Pain aligned perfectly with the Resurgence Church's official announcement.

Even now, he looked like the Cardinal of Pain!

In the eyes of the audience, he was the Cardinal of Pain, even if he wasn't.

"I feel like the native inhabitants of this Shadow World might not have realized yet that something nefarious has sneaked in..."
