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

Chapter 109: Dekan Prepares To Camp

Just like that, after extracting information from this prisoner, Dekan prepared to deceive the second prisoner.

If the confessions of the two prisoners were consistent, the intelligence would be generally accurate.

Of course, it was all for safety purposes.

Tomorrow, he could also use the "Little Sunflower Mama’s Truth Serum," jointly produced with Mielle, to verify.

However, this potion's effect was outstanding only when the enemy's mind was extremely fragile due to torture.

Otherwise, the enemy could resist the potion's illusion with their own mental will.

"Brother Lampard, I’ll hand you two portions after returning, please have someone re-interrogate these two prisoners.” Dekan looked at the lord and said.

"Okay, no problem."

Viscount Lampard, the lord, nodded solemnly.

Originally, neither Dekan nor the lord had the intention of interrogating in violation of regulations.

But at this point…

Even if they completely ignored the rules for dealing with captured felons. They had to thoroughly investigate.

As for Dekan's promise of "not torturing the prisoners."

Indeed.

Tomorrow's interrogation wouldn't be conducted by Dekan.

He was only responsible for handing the potion to the lord, who would naturally send someone to interrogate.

"By the way, what kind of potion is this? How should it be used?" The lord suddenly asked.

Dekan: "Ah, it's called the Little Sunflower Mama’s Truth Serum. If your child keeps lying, just give them a beating. Tomorrow, send your men to beat up the two prisoners. Then, inject them with the potion when they're in a confused state. Afterwards, you can begin interrogating them."

Lord: "..."

He didn't know how to evaluate the potion produced by Dekan.

This is pediatric medicine?

Viscount Lampard even felt that the laws of the Norton Kingdom were just too lenient for Dekan to not have been thrown into prison by now.

Not long after, he led Dekan to the confinement location of the second prisoner. He had an ashen expression the entire journey.

He couldn't help but want to rush back to the lord's mansion overnight and seek help from the capital through communication magic.

But, his rationality told him to confirm and verify everything first.

Otherwise, it would be challenging for the capital to believe.

After all, this was simply too absurd! -- Both the Resurgence Church’s mysterious plan to capture a tier 8 special class card maker and their epic tier 7 spell card with an unknown effect.

The interrogation went as expected.

The results of the confessions from the two individuals, apart from some irrelevant chatter, were mostly consistent.

The Resurgence Church did indeed want to use that epic spell card to enslave the Ice Princess!

"What should I do, Dekan? What should I do?"

The lord was anxiously pacing and stomping in place.

It seemed he didn't know how to explain to the capital.

Now he could only rely on Dekan.

After all, all this intelligence was brought out by Dekan.

Only Dekan could fully understand the lord's predicament.

Dekan's expression didn't change much. He rested his chin, contemplating something.

"Don't worry, there’s no need to panic," Dekan smiled at the lord.

It seemed he wasn't concerned at all about the imminent actions of the Resurgence Church.

Lord: "If we don't seek help from the capital soon, it might be too late!"

Dekan: "No need to go to the capital."

The lord said breathlessly, "I must seek help from the capital! Lady Ice Princess must not have any accidents!"

If the Resurgence Church was confident in kidnapping Ice Princess even with the city's defenses fully prepared, the city's defense forces would undoubtedly be unable to stop the imminent attack by the Resurgence Church!

The lord felt like a sword was hanging over his head.

The Resurgence Church could strike at his doorstep anytime.

It could be now at the earliest or within a week at the latest, that was the time frame they obtained from the confessions.

The lord also knew the importance of Ice Princess to the Norton Kingdom and the potential harm it would cause if she were enslaved by the Resurgence Church!

In the worst-case scenario, besides Ice Princess being captured, the people of Tristan City would suffer ruthless attacks.

As a lord, he couldn't just watch these things happen.

Dekan pressed the lord's shoulder and said: "If you hastily seek help from the capital, you will only alarm the enemy. Then, we'll lose the advantage we've just gained in intelligence."

"After the disappearance of three hijackers, the Resurgence Church should already be in a state of suspicion and fear; they will be afraid that the captive will reveal crucial information."

"The Resurgence Church has a more detailed intelligence network in the capital than you can imagine. If you choose to urgently seek help, they will detect abnormalities and act in advance. At that time, the capital's support could be enroute here but the enemy may have already achieved their goal of capturing Ice Princess."

"Give me some time to prepare; I guarantee the failure of the Resurgence Church's plan. And, I will find a way to minimize the losses for the city and its residents."

After saying this, Dekan released his hand from the lord's shoulder.

The lord's expression flickered with complex emotions as he looked at Dekan.

He felt what Dekan said made sense; after all, Dekan was an expert in dealing with Resurgence Church members.

"I trust you. Whatever assistance you need, just ask, and I'll fully cooperate with you."

The lord's attitude remained as humble as before, but now it carried a sense of supplication.

Trust in Dekan, receive his blessings.

"If you're willing to trust me, then there's no problem."

Dekan responded with a light laugh.

As long as there was critical information and ample preparation time, the enemy would be easy to deal with.

This time, Dekan hoped to make a big move.

...

The next day.

In the capital, the morning at Hevenlit Magic Academy was as peaceful as usual.

Arnold Zerlett, the vice dean of the Knight College and also the homeroom teacher of Dekan's 1-A class, headed towards the school building after getting up, washing, and changing.

On the way, he bought a cup of coffee and a copy of the "Norton Morning News."

"Although I'm quite worried about Dekan, there shouldn't be any problems for at least these two days. Even if he really ended up provoking the Ice Princess, it will probably take a day or two to reach the news."

Arnold comforted himself. Even though he would likely have a headache in the future.

What had to come would come, and there was no need to guess.

At least for these few days, he could temporarily enjoy a peaceful life.

"Let me see what's new."

He took a sip of coffee and picked up the newspaper.

However, the headline of the newspaper caught his attention—

"Resurgence Church Hijacking Incident, Fortunately, All Passengers Returned Safely."

"Magic airship speeding, suspect already arrested by the Tristan City security forces."

"Pfft!"

Professor Arnold sprayed coffee out in surprise.

He hastily looked through the newspaper, momentarily forgetting to use a handkerchief to wipe off the coffee.

Even though Dekan's name wasn't mentioned in the headlines, Professor Arnold knew, without guessing, that this had something to do with Dekan.

"It's only the first day..."

Professor Arnold shook his head, feeling disheartened.

He was already feeling hesitant about buying tomorrow's newspaper.

In the end, Professor Arnold stuffed the newspaper into the trash.

It doesn’t matter anymore...

He felt that even if Dekan pulled off something in the next few days, it wouldn't affect his mindset anymore…
