There’s Absolutely No Problem With The Magic Cards I Made!

Chapter 108: Dekan Accidentally Discovers A Complete Counter

Tristin’s lord stood nearby, listening attentively to the conversation between Dekan and the prisoner.

In his heart, a storm surged, but he dared not show it on his face.

No wonder Dekan had advised him on the way here — regardless of what information was extracted during the interrogation, he must manage his expression well.

The lord knew that Dekan was deceiving the prisoner.

But he didn't expect that Dekan would start with such an absurd answer.

And the result? He actually guessed it right?

The Resurgence Church was scheming for the Ice Princess?

How dare they!

The lord became anxious and uneasy for a moment.

Interrogating key information was undoubtedly a good thing, but the problem was there might be serious trouble.

Since the Resurgence Church dared to plan like this, they must be confident.

The key now was the extent to which the Resurgence Church intended to go.

If they only wanted to steal the Ice Princess's card, it might not cause a significant incident.

But if we boldly speculate a bit more—

What if the Resurgence Church wanted to somehow seize a masterpiece of the Ice Princess?

Then the security of the city-state could be seriously threatened.

While the lord was contemplating, the Resurgence Church's prisoner had already begun to confess.

The prisoner looked at Dekan very honestly and said: "The three of us only came to abduct you; we do not know the specific plan and arrangement for abducting the Ice Princess."

Upon hearing this, the lord immediately turned around, walking quickly out of the prisoner's line of sight.

This time, the lord truly couldn't control his expression; he could no longer maintain composure.

Abduct the Ice Princess?!

What kind of international joke was this?

Did the Resurgence Church want to flatten Tristin City?

The lord felt a chill down his spine.

Cold sweat began to bead on his forehead.

However, the lord noticed that Dekan, standing in front of the prisoner, remained calm and composed.

It was as if he were not surprised at all.

The lord couldn't help but sigh; this young man's on-the-spot performance and mindset were indeed as stable as his performance in the Shadow Worlds, frighteningly so.

"..."

Actually, even Dekan fell silent for a split second.

His heart couldn't help but start to complain.

This was the first time Dekan felt he had underestimated the Resurgence Church.

Regardless of whether their plan was realistic or feasible, for a group of cowardly individuals who only played dirty tricks, their courage was commendable.

Dekan even thought about giving them a little red flower as a reward.

"What is your purpose in capturing her?" Dekan asked.

"...It’s obviously so that she can make cards tirelessly for us under the condition of not dying from exhaustion," the prisoner replied, feeling that Dekan's question was a big waste of time.

Capture an tier 8 card maker and not allow her to make cards at high intensity? Were they going to make her cook and clean? Any person with half a brain should be able to guess their purpose.

But the prisoner, thinking that this might be Dekan's test, decided to answer honestly.

Dekan nodded at the response.

He thought the Resurgence Church wanted to capture the Ice Princess to make her a maid. Unexpectedly, it was for card-making.

It seemed the Resurgence Church was still as vulgar as ever.

"Well, tell me everything you know, no matter how big or small the information is. Start with the important ones," Dekan instructed.

Afterward, he stared at the prisoner with an unchanged expression, neither fierce nor gentle. However, to the prisoner, Dekan’s calmness seemed terrifying. He knew that individuals in such a state turned hostile the fastest.

It was possible that if he said something wrong, Dekan would instantly transform into his most terrifying nightmare.

“...It is said that it’s an epic card obtained from a Shadow World that can capture Ice Princess. However, we do not know about the details of its effects.”

“It is only after we obtained that card that we started planning on capturing Ice Princess. Likely, it is capable of enslaving an enemy when certain conditions are met.”

“The Cardinals dispatched one of their trusted aides as this mission’s operator…”

...

"A while ago, the Church put in a lot of effort to investigate the Ice Princess's full name, race, and even tried to determine her gender. Although she does appear very flat-chested, the extent to which the intelligence investigation went is indeed puzzling..."

...

"The Resurgence Church's revenue situation showed a deficit for the first time this year. It was only during the recent annual audit that internal problems were discovered. His Holiness, the Pope, was furious, but the direction of the funds still hasn't been traced."

"There's a rumor that we have a Cardinal who likes to cross-dress. Of course, it's just hearsay, and I never dare to say it randomly."

"Some time ago, a new term ‘inhuman’ became popular from somewhere. It can describe both cards and people. Several card makers in our association got angry because of this term. However, their reason for anger seems to be that someone pointed out they are 'not sinister enough' compared to a certain truly sinister card maker."

…

Listening to the prisoner's confession, Dekan nodded calmly.

Although the later information gradually became less substantial but since someone was speaking, he continued to listen.

"Master, have you heard of a spell that can forcibly enslave enemies?" Dekan sent a thought, calling his master.

"I've heard of a similar spell in a certain Shadow World, but the restrictions for such sealing and contract spells are quite significant," Dekan’s master quickly replied to Dekan's question.

And her tone was relatively gentler than usual.

The last time Dekan humbly sought advice like this was back in the Demon Academy.

"Such as needing the target's true name, race, and the like?"

"Yes, for example, in that world, the magic that seals the undying ancestor of the vampires, the most crucial part is declaring its true name."

"I have a rough understanding now. Thank you, Master."

Dekan felt that he had basically guessed the approximate effect of this card.

He was just unsure of its specific mechanism and judgment details.

Indeed, it was an excessively powerful spell card.

This kind of forced, complete, and permanent enslavement was more terrifying than any form of torture.

If the Ice Princess was truly captured by the Resurgence Church, what awaited her would be an incredibly tragic fate.

Of course…

If Dekan had been kidnapped on the magic airship earlier.

Then Dekan would have been an alternative card maker to bear the brunt of this enslavement spell card.

This tragic fate would have belonged to Dekan.

"Hehe."

Thinking about the Resurgence Church's plan, Dekan couldn't help but want to laugh.

They had stirred up trouble on his turf.

Moreover, doesn't this tier 7 epic spell card seem to have a fatal weakness?

If you want to successfully use it, you must declare some crucial details about the target…

Such as the target's name, race, gender…

So......

Dekan silently took out one of his cards, deep in thought.

Isn't this epic spell easily countered by my “Granddaddy’s Gag?”

If you can't even speak, how are you going to make a declaration?
