The Guide Demon awkwardly produced a magical device and scanned it across Dekan's Demon Bracelet.

Payment successful.

This guy actually has over a thousand Demon Point!

The Guide Demon way looked at the instrument with a bewildered expression, then resignedly put it away.

He left the office for a while to fetch a map of the Demon Realm for Dekan.

He then sat back down at his desk and said:

"The second level of the prison is the Lust Prison, and there's no rule against attacking the guards there. By the way, several levels in the prison are Exile Zone, and the Jailer themselves are the most heinous demons from the Demon Realm."

The Guide Demon's tone softened considerably.

It seems that it has been confirmed that Dekan possesses extraordinary potential.

There's no need for him to make things difficult for such a demon with unlimited potential.

Instead, you should lend a hand.

Perhaps there will be opportunities to help me in the future.

Dekan asked, "The Exile Zone?"

The Guide Demon explained:

"Some of the more powerful demons are too good to kill, but they need to be punished. So they are sent to certain levels to Jailer. They are both Jailer and prisoners. While imprisoning them, they are also forced to deal with prisoners and use their power to Purgatory."

Dekan: "What are the characteristics of the Jailer on the second level?"

The Guide Demon shook its head and replied:

"I don't know. All I know is that the Jailer is called Olive of Purgatory, and she's a very crazy guy, but thankfully she's only at the seventh rank."

"Olive?"

Dekan never expected to hear that familiar name here.

The final boss of that Demon Academy was a scorpion-tailed demon who was tricked and knocked unconscious by Dekan, and then thrown into Purgatory by Cornelia.

Although it's also possible that they share the same name.

But the crazy trait definitely matches!

"You know her?"

The Guide Demon raised an eyebrow.

"Ah, she was my teacher at the Demon Academy... but I heard she had an accident back then, I didn't expect she'd still be alive?"

Dekan tried to get some information out of the Guide Demon.

"She did indeed fall into Endless Purgatory, but she survived and became even stronger. As punishment, she was relegated to the second level of the Demon Prison as Jailer because of serious misconduct discovered at the Demon Academy."

"Guide Demon replied."

He was also quite certain that Dekan was a graduate of that Demon Academy.

Because everything they knew matched perfectly.

Dekan stood still, lost in thought for a while.

I was so moved that I almost cried.

Ms. Olive, so you weren't dead after all!

Dekan was already looking forward to a touching reunion between teacher and student.

But he must control his emotions!

He is now a public figure.

You must be careful to maintain a proper sense of proportion in your actions!

"What about the information about the Warden?"

Dekan decided to get his hands on the intelligence he had bought at a high price.

Logically speaking

The price of this information determines that it's impossible to buy it on the first floor in the normal strategy path.

"The Warden is on the Ninth Floor. The intelligence is that her eyes aren't truly blind; she's sealed them away by herself."

The Guide Demon lowered its voice and said.

That's it?

Dekan felt this intelligence wasn't worth 1000 at all.

"Um."

The Guide Demon was absolutely certain.

After answering, even if Dekan pressed for further questions, the Guide Demon resolutely refused to say anything more.

He clearly didn't dare to say more.

At most, I'll just tell Dekan: figure it out for yourself.

Dekan shook his head helplessly and left the office.

This intelligence report essentially told him that the Warden's weakness was her eyes.

But it's really too abstract.

Let's take it one step at a time; what if that saying actually comes true...?

As he walked toward the portal leading to the second floor, Dekan reflected on life.

Fate is a wondrous thing.

"I hurt Olive last time, so I'm going to treat her properly this time."

Olive, what an innocent and kind teacher she is.

Dekan admitted that his previous act of deceiving Olive to hurt her had indeed affected his reputation.

So this time.

Dekan decided to show his good-guy qualities to the viewers in the live stream.

I can't keep deceiving Olive's feelings!

The portal was surrounded by a barrier similar to that protecting a prison.

Although he couldn't break through the barrier directly, he sensed the information on the Demon Bracelet when he got close to it.

[Pay 1000 Demon Point to proceed to the second level; jailers can bring prisoners along.]

Dekan also fully understood the importance of his role as a jailer.

Even at very deep levels, one cannot continue descending alone.

Only he, as a jailer, could lead his companions into the depths of hell until they found the Saintess of Darkness and escaped from the Warden.

Before heading to the second floor.

Dekan put on the [Red Center Mask].

Logically speaking, the Shadow World is a projection of the history of a certain world.

Even in real history, Olive was betrayed at the Demon Academy and fell into Purgatory.

He shouldn't be the one who did this!

Therefore, Olive probably doesn't remember herself.

However, just in case, Dekan decided to disguise his appearance.

After all, Olive's experience seemed too coincidental to Dekan.

The coincidence is almost incongruous.

Could it be that in the original history, there was some other little genius who had the same idea as me, tricked Olive into losing consciousness, and then threw her into Purgatory?

Dekan is also worried.

It's also possible that this selective Shadow World has its own unique characteristics.

For example, this kind of Shadow World has a special mechanism that connects the world lines of the Demon Academy and the Demon Prison.

So maybe Olive will remember what Dekan looks like.

What if Olive really does remember her?

Even now, Dekan has been disguised as a teenage version of Tata.

Olive can easily recognize them because they look exactly alike!

The second level, the portal exit.

The smell in the air was several times more pungent than what Dekan had smelled in Olive's laboratory.

Clearly, this layer is nothing but bloodshed and Olive's unrestrained killing.

[This level of the prison is Exile Zone, where guards are allowed to kill each other.]

[Demon Point will result in being considered a prisoner.]

[Leaving the protected area of the portal barrier is considered entering the second level.]

[On the second level of the prison, 200 Demon Point will be automatically gained for each day of survival.]

[Go to the third floor; no Demon Point required.]

Upon arriving at the second level, Dekan immediately sensed the rules of this level through the Demon Bracelet.

For prisoners, this place is equivalent to an execution ground.

For the jailers, this place was a kind of training exercise.

To reach the deeper levels of the prison, one must undergo even more rigorous tests.
