108 Dekan unintentionally discovered a heaven-defying relationship
The lord listened carefully to the conversation between Dekan and the prisoner from the side.
A storm of emotions brewed within him, but he dared not show it on his face.
No wonder Dekan had reminded him on the way here ——
Regardless of what intelligence was obtained during the interrogation, he had to manage his expression well.
The lord knew that Dekan was deceiving the prisoner.
But he never expected that Dekan had guessed such an outrageous answer right from the start.
And yet, he guessed correctly?
The Rebirth Church had designs on the Ice Snow Princess?
How dare they!
The lord suddenly became anxious.
While obtaining key intelligence during the interrogation was a good thing, the problem was that it might lead to serious trouble.
Since the Rebirth Church dared to plan this, there must be a reason for their confidence.
Now the key question was, to what extent does the Rebirth Church plan to go?
If they merely planned to steal the Ice Snow Princess’s card, it might not be too bad.
Nothing too serious would happen.
If we make a bolder guess,
What if, the Rebirth Church planned to somehow snatch one of the Ice Snow Princess’s masterpieces?
In that case, the safety of the city might be seriously threatened.
While the lord was pondering, the prisoner from the Rebirth Church had already begun to confess.
The prisoner looked honestly at Dekan and said:
“In fact, we three who came to kidnap you didn’t know the specific plans to kidnap Ice Snow Princess.”
Upon hearing this, the lord immediately turned around and quickly walked out of the prisoner’s line of sight.
This time, the lord really couldn’t control his expression. He could no longer remain calm.
Kidnap the Ice Snow Princess??!
What kind of joke is this?
Are you planning to level Tristin City, Rebirth Church?
The lord felt cold sweat dripping down his back.
Cold sweat began to form on his forehead.
However, the lord noticed that Dekan standing in front of the prisoner remained as calm as ever.
As if he was completely unsurprised.
The lord couldn’t help but marvel at how steady this young man’s ability to perform under pressure and his mental state were indeed as fearsome as his performance in the Shadow World.
“……”
In fact, even Dekan was silent for a moment.
His heart couldn’t help but start criticizing internally.
A-Fu, you guys are truly surprising.
This was the first time Dekan felt that he underestimated the Rebirth Church.
Regardless of whether their plan was realistic or if it could succeed,
For this group of Rebirth Church followers who only play dirty tricks, this was already very commendable.
Dekan even wanted to give them a little red flower.
“What is your purpose in capturing her?”
Dekan asked.
“……Of course, it’s to make her tirelessly make cards for us without dying from overwork.”
The prisoner thought Dekan asked a redundant question.
If they go to the trouble of capturing an eighth rank cardmaker and don’t make her work hard making cards, would they have her washing vegetables and cooking instead?
Any reasonable person should easily figure this out, right?
However, thinking it might be Dekan’s test, the prisoner still gave an honest answer.
Hearing this, Dekan nodded.
He thought the Rebirth Church wanted to capture the Ice Snow Princess to make her a maid.
Unexpectedly, they wanted her to make cards.
It seems the Rebirth Church was still as vulgar as ever.
“Hmm, tell me everything you know, regardless of the significance of the information, start with the important ones.”
Dekan instructed.
Then, he stared at the prisoner with an unchanging expression, saying nothing.
His eyes were neither fierce nor gentle.
However, for the prisoner, this was an extremely terrifying state.
Because the worst thing about such a state is how quick it can change.
It’s possible that just one wrong word could instantly transform Dekan into his worst nightmare.
“……According to rumors, there is an epic spell card obtained from the Shadow World that can be used to capture the Ice Snow Princess, though we still don’t know the specific effects.”
“It was only after obtaining this card that the plan to capture the Ice Snow Princess was devised, the effect is probably the ability to forcibly enslave enemies under certain conditions.”
“The Cardinal has dispatched a close confidant as the key to the entire mission…”
…
“Recently, the church has gone all out to investigate the Ice Snow Princess’s name, race, and even tried to confirm her gender. Though she’s indeed rather flat-chested, the extent of the intelligence gathering is indeed quite perplexing…”
…
“The Rebirth Church for the first time this year incurred a deficit in revenue. It was only during the annual accounting a few days ago that an internal issue was discovered; Pope was furious, yet the flow of funds still remains unknown.”
“They say we have a bishop who likes to dress as a woman, but of course, I just heard it, I never dare to say anything…”
“Recently, a new term ‘yinjian’ has been circulating somewhere, which can describe cards or people. Several card makers in our association got really angry about this. However… the reason they got angry seems to be because they were told they weren’t ‘yinjian’ enough compared to a certain truly ‘yinjian’ card maker.”
…
Listening to the prisoner’s confession, Dekan nodded calmly.
Although the later intelligence gradually became less and less useful.
But since someone spoke up, he might as well listen a little longer.
“Teacher, have you heard of a spell that can forcibly enslave the opponent?”
Dekan diverted a strand of thought to summon Master.
“I’ve heard of similar spells in some Shadow Worlds, but the restriction requirements for such sealing spells and contract spells are quite significant.”
Master quickly answered Dekan’s question.
And compared to usual, the tone was relatively gentle.
The last time Dekan was so humble in seeking advice was when he was in the Demon Academy.
“For example, does it need something like the real name, race of the opponent?”
“Yes, for example, the key part of the spell used to seal the immortal ancestor of a vampire clan in that world was the declaration of his true name.”
“In that case, I guess I roughly have an idea. Thanks, Master.”
Dekan thought he had basically guessed the card’s approximate effect.
But he was uncertain of its specific mechanism and judgment details.
It was indeed an excessive spell card.
Such a forceful, complete, and permanent enslavement was more terrifying than any torture.
If the Ice Snow Princess really got captured by the Rebirth Church, she would face an extremely tragic fate.
Of course.
If Dekan had been abducted on the magic airship earlier,
Then Dekan would have been the backup cardmaker to bear the enslavement spell.
This pitiful fate would belong to Dekan as well.
“Snicker.”
Thinking about the calculation of the Rebirth Church, Dekan couldn’t help but laugh.
This move is truly defying the authority.
Besides, doesn’t this seventh-rank epic spell card have a fatal weakness?
If you want to use it successfully, you must declare some key contents to the target ——
Like the target’s name, race, gender.
Then……
Dekan silently took out one of his own cards and pondered thoughtfully.
Isn’t this legendary spell countered by My Silencing Art?
If you can’t even speak, how can you declare?
