083 Dekan’s Showmanship Card
Although most people wouldn’t deliberately hypnotize themselves before entering the Shadow World, Dekan wanted to try and see if he could steal the identity of the Rebel Challenger.
He always liked to prepare thoroughly in strange places, often bringing unexpected surprises to the enemy.
Such as this time.
He thought that trying wouldn’t hurt, so before entering the Shadow World, he kept hypnotizing himself: I am the destroyer of the world, I am the harbinger of the end…
Who would have thought that he would encounter an antagonistic Shadow World this time.
As expected, he was judged by the Shadow World to be someone who wants to cause a disaster to the world.
Thus, obtaining the qualification to become a Rebel Challenger.
Combined with his Sinful Companion trait — an increased probability of obtaining an evil-aligned identity.
That’s how Dekan forcibly took away the Witch identity that should have belonged to his twin sister at the start.
It was like locking the victory before even entering the game.
Dekan was laughing and shaking his head as he stepped back.
Then Cornelia continued to pound on the door.
With each hammer blow, her sister’s screams grew louder.
Hammer by hammer, the door was gradually being broken down under her sister’s terrified gaze.
Her sister looked just like a lost lamb, her face covered in tears as if she had lost all hope, her complexion pale without a trace of blood.
“You! You will die with me! Hahaha!”
The sister seemed to have made her final decision, screaming as she cast a light magic spell that pierced her own chest.
If caught by these two, it wouldn’t be something they could easily get out of.
Rather than that, she would sacrifice herself to summon a vampire and let the vampire kill these two!
They had no chance to escape back to the second-floor room!
Subsequently, her vitality quickly dissipated, her hands collapsing on the ground, her pupils fading.
With blood spilling from the corner of her mouth, her expression looked relieved.
The moment the healing sister died, Dekan felt a terrifying surge of magic, as if it made the entire mansion tremble.
The death count reached six.
The most terrifying existence hidden in the ancient house was finally about to awaken.
“Ah, then let’s fast forward to the final boss. The earlier we finish, the earlier we can get off work.”
Dekan sighed, summoning the Ruined Bard, ordering it to approach the living room but not to enter.
Dekan was also too lazy to try to stop the sister from committing suicide using mind interference.
Even if he could slightly control her, Cornelia might not have had enough time to rush in and subdue her.
And capturing this fourth-tier healer who was determined to die might actually cause Cornelia to get hurt.
Not worth it.
Anyway, Dekan had already set a trap for the vampire.
It didn’t matter when to release it.
They had already placed the assassin sister’s corpse next to the hexagram array.
The assassin sister’s body was full of blood containing a tasteless and smellless poison.
Dekan was an old hunter.
When the vampire drank this blood, it would become a toy for Dekan and Cornelia.
Of course, to make sure the vampire would definitely take the bait, they still needed a card.
Dekan calmly took out a spell card.
Three weeks before setting out, he had developed a total of three new cards.
One is the new version 3.1 Poisonous Ground Spike created with Mia.
The second is the Sun Fist he had wanted to create when he took the third-tier card maker test.
The third is a mental magic spell card created with the newest technique taught by his master, combined with his own improvements.
【Three Corpse Frenzy】
【Category: Spell Card】
【Tier: Purple Rare】
【Class: 3】
【Effect: Causes the desires of all individuals within the range to surge. The size of the range determines the mana consumption.】
【Note: The first level three mental magic card by Priest Dekan! Experimental model, still in development!】
This card can amplify the enemy’s inner desires.
For example, Count Augustine, who has just been released from a long seal, must have an incomparable desire for blood.
When this desire is amplified, he will be unable to control his desire to drink the blood of the assassin sister, ensuring Dekan and Cornelia don’t have to work overtime.
Otherwise, the sixth-tier vampire would be a little bit difficult to deal with.
“Looks like Dekan’s new card is again a type of magic that demons like to use… It doesn’t have much use in ordinary direct combat, but in seduction and temptation…”
“When we see Dekan release new cards, the students of the alchemy institute always launch a series of discussions.
“Like a Succubus would definitely enjoy using this kind of card…”
“Anyway, it all depends on the user how much these cards can be utilized.”
“Unfortunately, there are almost no demons left in this world, and only some ancient demon cards passed down.”
“Upon reflection, Dekan’s cards seem to all lean towards demon cards, he wouldn’t actually be a demon, would he?”
Even though there were such doubts, they still thought it was impossible.
After all, the racial assessment during the entrance test clearly identified Dekan as a human.
Even when the card maker’s association tested him again later, the result was consistent.
…
If used properly, the card 【Three Corpse Frenzy】 has an extremely high upper limit.
However, it has a severe side effect.
That is, it disregards friends or foes, everyone will be affected.
Therefore, when using this spell card, Dekan must ensure that his heart doesn’t have any strong desires.
Otherwise, he might mess up badly.
He emptied his mind, silently chanting Buddhist scriptures, and not thinking about anything to avoid any desires getting amplified.
“Meow!”
However, the Teacher Cat, despite being warned by Dekan, still couldn’t resist jumping out of Dekan’s shadow.
“Dekan! Quickly hand over your treasure room! Meow!”
“I want delicious food! Meow!”
“I want to be together with the handsome kitten, meow meow meow! Dekan! Quick! Turn!”
The Teacher Cat was completely crazy, jumping onto Dekan’s shoulder and rubbing his face.
“…”
Seeing the reaction of the Teacher Cat, even Dekan started to feel a bit scared.
Considering him as a pet, it was actually thinking…
It turned out that the power of the card was even stronger than expected.
Dekan quickly glanced at Cornelia.
Although Cornelia seemed normal at first glance, her body was gradually trembling.
She seemed to be finally unable to control herself, turning her head forcefully and staring at the Teacher Cat with a stare that instantly made it scared and its hair stood on end.
“Meow! Save me!”
It instinctively jumped down and fled, regaining its senses due to the shock.
“Let me hug!”
But Cornelia rushed towards the Teacher Cat despite everything.
It seemed that she would hug it even by force.
“You two, stop! If you ruin my plan, I’ll die on the spot!”
“You damn cat! Go far away! Don’t run around me!”
“Cornelia, calm down first. I’ll ask Little Gray to keep you company when we get back to school!”
