Dekan felt that this card had some serious issues.
However, the next second, Dekan was pinned to the ground by a knight.
Dekan: “???”
How could Dekan endure such humiliation?
Cornelia immediately came over and pinned the knight down.
“Enemy attack!!”
Suddenly, the entire city gate was on high alert, a tense atmosphere prevailing!
“What’s going on with you all!!”
Knight Commander Gavin hurried over to stop the knights.
Originally, he had planned to wait inside the city for Dekan and the others to pass through.
Who would have thought the first to go through security, Dekan, would be stopped?
“He didn’t pass the security check, and his accomplices attacked us!”
The Gate Knight shouted to Gavin, hoping he could subdue these thugs.
“How could that be? He is Dekan! It’s impossible for him to be mocked by Captain De’Erkan!”
Saying this, Knight Commander Gavin took out a card of Captain De’Erkan allotted to him by the kingdom and presented it in front of Dekan.
Even if Dekan now had a strong suspicion of being disguised by someone else, the cautious Gavin would not dare lay a hand on Dekan, not even a suspected Dekan.
Let’s remain reasonable; everyone must not fight.
However, this time, Dekan showed no reaction to the card of Captain De’Erkan.
“What’s going on?”
Not only did the Gate Knights look confused, but the Beautiful Soul Squad was puzzled as well.
“Wait. The problem is with this card of Captain De’Erkan just now.”
Gavin frowned and looked at the card in the Gate Knight’s hand.
Dekan also stared at the card, his expression very strange.
“Can I take a look at it?”
Dekan asked.
“Oh, oh, okay.”
The Gate Knight quickly handed it over to Dekan.
Dekan furrowed his brow, examining the card of Captain De’Erkan.
Now that he had dispelled the mocking effect, he quickly identified what was wrong with this card.
It felt like this thing had a slightly crooked mouth!
But it seemed even more arrogant.
“When did I ever make a crooked-mouth Captain De’Erkan?!”
Dekan couldn’t help but smash the crooked-mouth Captain De’Erkan to the ground.
The group of Gate Knights still didn’t know what was happening after seeing Dekan’s reaction.
Dekan quickly took out a legitimate card of Captain De’Erkan and handed it to the Gate Knight.
“Can I trade this card of Captain De’Erkan for the one in your hand? This one I made myself; it’s not a mass production.”
“Of course! I apologize for the earlier misunderstanding, Mr. Dekan!”
The Gate Knight quickly canceled the soul binding on the crooked-mouth Captain De’Erkan and accepted the legitimate card Dekan had given him.
“Could I trouble you to add a signature?”
Dekan: “…”
He was no longer in the mood to be a celebrity.
The crooked-mouth Captain De’Erkan was giving Dekan a headache.
“No problem.”
Dekan still pulled out a pen, swiftly signed the card, and handed it to the Gate Knight. Then holding the crooked-mouth Captain De’Erkan, he asked the knight:
“Where did this card come from?”
“Uh…”
The Gate Knight seemed troubled, as if he was afraid to say it out loud.
Dekan noticed that this guy must have something he didn’t dare to mention in front of Knight Commander Gavin.
So Dekan pulled the Gate Knight aside and whispered, “Just tell me, I won’t say a word to anyone.”
The Gate Knight hesitated for a moment, as if he felt there was no way to hide it and dared not conceal it from Dekan.
He gritted his teeth and replied:
“Actually, I accidentally lost the Captain De’Erkan assigned to me after being ambushed by a goblin last time. Since reporting it would require compensation and penalties, I went to the black market to buy a cheaper Captain De’Erkan card.”
“Ah?”
After hearing this, Dekan felt that this city was truly filled with hidden talents.
The goblin that could steal cards couldn’t possibly be the Bandit Goblin, right?!
Was this even pirated?!
To reverse-engineer Dekan’s demon language, even if it’s just Dekan’s lowest-level work, one would have to possess a highly talented card-making skill.
Moreover, it required mastery of nearly forgotten demon language.
The most critical factor was that one must have physical adaptability.
Otherwise, it would be detrimental to one’s health.
If Dekan hadn’t witnessed it with his own eyes, he would not believe that someone could produce counterfeit cards.
Now that he had seen the counterfeit card, aside from its poor quality, it also seemed to have some flaws in its functionality!
Even Dekan’s true self could be affected!
Dekan examined the crooked-mouth Captain De’Erkan.
Since it was a card he personally developed, he was thoroughly familiar with its structure.
In a short while, Dekan completed a full analysis of this card.
Captain De’Erkan (Crooked Mouth)
Category: Summon Card
Grade: Blue Rare
Level: 1
Effect: A summoned being made in Dekan’s chibi style, possessing ordinary single-target taunting function and applying a “confusion” state to the taunted target. The stronger the target’s hatred or affection for Dekan, the longer the taunting duration.
Note: “A grin from De’Erkan leads to unpredictable outcomes!”
Although it was a poor imitation of Dekan’s legitimate card, it had indeed successfully copied Dekan’s core skills.
Its basic taunting ability was far inferior to the genuine Captain De’Erkan.
After all, the taunting of Captain De’Erkan was “highly effective.”
This card’s taunting was “ordinary.”
However, its effect had changed accordingly; even those who had a good impression of Dekan would have their taunting duration extended!
“Damn it!! If you’re going to pirate, why make a crooked-mouth Captain De’Erkan?!”
Dekan held his head, and the more he looked at this crooked-mouth Captain De’Erkan, the more he wanted to punch it.
He had thought that the only person who wouldn’t be affected by the effect of Captain De’Erkan would be himself.
Little did he know that one day he himself would be caught in its effect!
“Which bastard did this?!”
Dekan roared.
If one were to say this person had talent, it seemed only to be a little bit.
If one were to say this person lacked talent, it seemed they were indeed exceptionally talented!
“Hahaha, Dekan, you have your day too! Come on, let me see how crooked its mouth is! Hahaha Dekan, can you imitate it?”
Mia was the first one unable to contain herself and laughed out loud.
“……”
Dekan looked back at his good teammate while holding the crooked-mouth Captain De’Erkan.
Except for Cornelia’s expressionless face, Teacher Cat had already turned around, and its trembling back seemed to indicate it was laughing hard; meanwhile, Chloix covered his mouth, seeming unable to hold back any longer.
Dekan’s face instantly turned as dark as a pot.
Was this crooked-mouth Captain De’Erkan really that funny?
“No way, I have to find out which bastard made such a ridiculous card!!”
The angrier Dekan became as he thought, this not only infringed on his patent but also invaded his portrait rights.
If one day the crooked-mouth Captain De’Erkan spread throughout the world, then the beautiful world Dekan had originally envisioned would turn into the worst world!
“A Preemptive Release of My Feelings of Failure”
Ouch! It hurts too much!
The endless monthly votes are my infinite, boundless sorrow!
Which of the following is the most painful?
A. Kaneki Ken
B. Fuyue
C. Obito Uchiha
D. Dog of the Fourth Place Yippee
Actually, my July “Monthly Vote Rewards” lasted a whole month. The monthly votes from the readers have either been exhausted by me or hit the limit. Whether for me or everyone, we’ve really done our best.
But please think carefully, failure runs through life from start to finish; this is life.
Even if I miss the top three, I still hope I can accept this outcome with a smile and express my gratitude to everyone who voted for me.
At least if I can bring a little joy to everyone, that’s still good. After all, today’s monthly vote rankings are quite surreal.
To be honest, if I were not on this monthly vote list, I would be really happy. I want to see a few supreme battles to the edge of the universe, and the monthly vote rankings would vanish.
But I just happen to be on this list! It feels like I’m being roasted over a fire!
Wuwuwu, as soon as I mention this, I can’t laugh anymore. I can already foresee the future where I end up in fourth place on the monthly vote list at 24:00 today.
Is anyone out there to help me find a way to get into the top three of the monthly votes? Wuwuwuwu! I’m crying so loudly.
I don’t want to be the funny guy anymore! Wuwuwu!
