There is no problem with the magic cards I made

They haven't necessarily heard of Durkan and Cornelia.

After all, the world is too big and there are too many strange people and interesting things.

Even if other challengers have heard of their glorious deeds, they probably don't know the appearance of Dekan and Cornelia.

Finally, everyone else finished their introductions and looked at the taciturn detective Cornelia and her assistant.

Before Cornelia could speak, Dekan spoke first:

"My name is Bacher, and I am the attendant of my eldest lady. She doesn't like to talk, so please forgive me."

Then he saluted everyone gracefully and retreated behind Cornelia again.

This time he just wanted to be the man behind Cornelia.

Hidden merit and fame.

Kenelia immediately understood.

"My name is Olive."

But Nelia's identity is innocent, and there is no need to take the initiative to expose any information.

Dekan just wanted her not to say more.

The other challengers couldn't help but their eyes lit up.

It turns out that the detective lady is also a noble lady from some family?

If you think about it carefully, since Shadow World has chosen her as the hope of a regular challenger, she must have something special about her.

And by always acting so low-key, I'm afraid he is really hiding his clumsiness.

Not only her identity, but also her resourcefulness.

It turns out that he is the type who hides his secrets and is as wise as a fool.

This made [Miss] Lilith a little embarrassed.

She couldn't help but look at Cornelia carefully.

Well, this kind of calm and restrained yet elegant feeling is either not a noble, or a hidden noble.

I just made a mistake.

From this point of view, the detective lady is not without ideas.

Instead, I want to maintain a state of silence and observe the changes, observing everyone as an outsider.

Wonderful.

Then let's have a good test.

Lilith's eyes seemed to be ignited with the fire of fighting spirit, and she stared at Cornelia for a moment.

"But there is a serious problem now."

Lilith glanced around the crowd and continued: "Where is the tenth challenger?"

There were only nine challengers present.

"Isn't that the one on the piano?"

[Kingdom Knight] asked.

Lilith shook her head.

"Obviously not. That person is obviously an original character in the Shadow World. There will be no situation in the Shadow World where the challenger will die at the start, so we still lack a challenger, and we don't know whether he is an enemy or a friend. This is undoubtedly a big deal. It makes our reasoning more difficult."

Everyone was silent.

It is indeed quite outrageous!

It was clearly stated that all challengers would start in the living room, but no matter how many times they were counted, there were still nine of them.

"Miss Olive, do you have any ideas?"

Lilith looked at Cornelia and asked.

"I don't think this question is important."

Connilia followed the principle of freedom of expression and the principle of making mistakes without misleading the other challengers.

After saying that, she didn't intend to explain anything further.

Lilith was silent for a moment, and probably understood what Cornelia meant.

Indeed, there is no point in continuing to dwell on this issue here.

The ultimate in simplified thinking.

"Well, since Olive said so, let's skip this topic for now."

Lilith showed a relieved smile and continued:

"I suggest that we try to move together during the next daylight hours, at least keep each other in sight. After all, there is strength in numbers."

"If we can't find the identity of the enemy on the first day, we will separate and hide in the bedroom at night."

"If the two of them can work together to temporarily resist the sixth-level werewolf, then it is recommended that the two of them live together."

"If two people work together, they will be instantly killed by the werewolf. It is recommended to split up into one person to increase interference. No matter who is attacked, be sure to leave as many clues as possible."

"Olive, what do you think?"

Cornelia: "Okay."

Seeing Cornelia nodding, everyone also agreed.

If everyone stayed together at night, they would most likely be killed by the werewolves.

After all, even if eight people work together, they will still be hacked when faced with a sixth-level werewolf attack.

The right solution is to use the protection of the room.

But this has to face a cruel situation——

There will likely be victims.

The victims will also have the opportunity to exchange for information.

So next, everyone began to explore the structure of the mansion together.

The mansion has two floors, with five bedrooms on each floor. The room numbers are 101-105 and 201-205 respectively.

For security reasons, everyone agreed not to disclose to each other which room their keys corresponded to on the first day.

The first floor has a living room and a kitchen where a lot of food is stored, while the second floor has a study and a huge library.

In addition to a little exploration of the exterior conditions of the mansion - the cliffs and cut off bridges, as well as the extremely bad weather that was about to drown people.

The rest of the time is almost spent in the study and library.

They are looking for relevant clues as much as possible.

Before I knew it, it was nine o'clock in the evening.

There is still one hour left before the werewolf's activity time.

## Author's Note:

①The plot will accelerate from the next chapter and become very fast. The preparation for this chapter has been completed.

② Sometimes two chapters may be combined into one for the sake of continuity of the plot, because I don’t know where to break in the middle. If you want to post a big chapter, this is the chapter today (Don’t hit me, the dog’s head will save your life)

③The pricing of chapters is based on the number of words. Some friends may still not understand this mechanism, so let’s talk about it~ If you see that a certain chapter is more expensive, it means that the number of words will be large, and you will not lose money~

Volume 2: Wild Mountain Blizzard Movie: 075 Dekan is here to experience life

When the first night was about to come, everyone came to the kitchen where the ingredients were stored.

They had to distribute the remaining three days of food at this moment and take it back to the bedroom.

Otherwise, after they disperse tonight, the two reverse challengers will definitely destroy the food.

"Okay, we have finished investigating everything we can. It seems that we can only pray for safety tonight."

Lilith said looking at everyone.

There seems to be nothing particularly obvious about the mansion that needs to be deciphered.

Except for the ten bedrooms, there are no inaccessible secret rooms.

Although they tried to find traps and hidden compartments, they finally concluded that the structure of the mansion was normal.

The only special thing is that there is a six-pointed star-shaped magic circle under the piano in the living room, with a faint red light lingering on one corner.

It looks like an altar of unknown meaning, unable to be activated or destroyed.

At noon, a team went to check the bedroom, but did not find any hidden information in the bedroom.

The useful information is basically in the library-like library and the mansion owner's study.

Including a lot of information related to this world.

And the story about the house and the territory.

[Legend has it that many years ago, this place was originally the residence of Viscount Augustine. 】

[Later, Viscount Augustine discovered the identity of the vampire, so the church came to crusade. 】

[The design of Viscount Augustine attracted his mortal enemies - werewolves and witches. 】

[In the end, vampires, werewolves, witches, and the church’s crusade team all fought to the death. 】

[The expedition team has no choice but to trap the seriously injured enemies in this ancient house. 】

[In the end, the ghosts of the werewolf and the witch turned into a curse on this mansion. 】

When Lilith summarized these clues, the progress of the core plot jumped directly to 2/3.

It means that the last key piece of information is missing, and the challenger can solve the core plot content.

However, where the last 1/3 of the information was, neither Cornelia nor Lilith had a clue.

They couldn't even deduce what the extra tasks of the counter-challengers were.

It can only be set to "kill all regular challengers" by default.

After everyone disperses, tonight will most likely be a bloody night.

Cornelia looked at Dekan subconsciously.

Help her brain at times like this.

Dekan looked at her and just smiled without saying a word.

But Nelia seemed to understand something and turned her head away from looking at him.

"We'll go to the bedroom in batches later, leaving one group every two minutes. This way we won't know each other's room numbers. Also, let Miss Detective go first."

Lilith suggested.

"good."

No one had any objection.

This approach is mainly to protect Cornelia.

Prevent werewolves and witches from easily knowing which room Cornelia will live in.

But Nelia said nothing and walked straight to the library exit, and Dekan followed her naturally.

"I suggest that Miss Detective go to the room alone first."

Lilith's voice suddenly sounded.

Cornelia and Dekan both stopped and looked back at her.

"I don't mean to offend, I just want to remind you that even if you enter the shadow world in a team, there is still a possibility that one of you is a cultist in disguise. After all, they are too good at deceiving others.

Unless you absolutely trust him, I suggest Miss Detective that you consider it carefully.

Because your safety means the world to us. "

Lilith explained.
