There’s Absolutely No Problem With The Magic Cards I Made!-Chapter 83: Dekan's Card For Show Effect
Although ordinary people wouldn't intentionally self-hypnotize before entering the Shadow Worlds, Dekan wanted to try if it was possible to snatch the identity of a rebel challenger. He always liked to be well-prepared in strange places. This often brought unexpected surprises to enemies.
Like this time.
He thought trying wouldn't hurt anyway. So, before entering the Shadow World, he kept hypnotizing himself: "I am the world destroyer, I am the messenger of doom…"
Who would’ve known, he happened to encounter a confrontational Shadow World this time.
As expected, the Shadow World judged him as someone who wanted to cause disasters to the world. He obtained the qualification to become a rebel challenger. Plus, with his Criminal Duo attribute, he had a higher probability of getting the evil faction's identity.
So, Dekan forcibly took away the witch identity that should have belonged to the twin sister right at the beginning. It was like locking in victory before even entering the game.
Dekan shook his head with a smile and stepped back.
Then Cornelia continued to step forward and hit the door.
With every blow, the healer sister's screams grew louder. Each strike brought the door closer to breaking and increased the terror in the healer sister’s eyes.
The healer sister's helpless appearance resembled a lost lamb. Her face was streaked with tears, as if she had lost her last shred of hope. Her complexion turned pale, devoid of any color.
"You! You shall die with me! Hahaha!"
It seemed the healer sister had made her final decision. She screamed and cast a light magic spell through her chest.
If caught by those two, it wouldn't be an easy death. So, why not sacrifice herself, summon the vampire, and let the vampire kill those two!?
They had no chance to escape back to their room on the second floor!
Afterward, her vitality rapidly dissipated. Her hands slumped to the ground, her pupils dimming.
Blood trickled from her mouth, yet her expression was one of release.
At the moment of the healer sister's death, Dekan felt a terrifying surge of magical power. It was as if the entire mansion trembled in response.
The death toll reached 6.
The most terrifying entity hidden in the mansion was finally about to resurrect.
"Well, let's hurry and get to the final boss. The sooner we finish, the sooner we can go home."
Dekan sighed and summoned the Ruined Poet, ordering it to approach the living room but not to enter. Dekan hadn't bothered trying to use mental interference to prevent the healer sister’s suicide. Even if he could control her a little, Cornelia might not have had time to rush in and suppress her.
Furthermore, capturing this tier 4 healer, who was determined to die, might result in injuries to Cornelia.
It wasn't necessary.
Dekan had already set up traps with the vampire.
They had already placed the assassin sister's body next to the hexagram array.
The assassin sister's body was covered in blood and that blood was filled with a colorless, odorless poison.
Dekan was a seasoned hunter.
Once the vampire drank the blood, it would become a toy for Dekan and Cornelia.
Of course, to ensure the vampire took the bait, they needed a card.
Dekan calmly took out a spell card.
In the three weeks before departure, he had developed three new cards.
The first one was the new and improved version "Extremely Poisonous Spike 3.1," created with Mielle.
The second one was "Solar Flare," a card he had wanted to make during the tier 3 cardmaker exam.
The third one was a spirit-type spell card he created by combining the latest techniques taught by his master with his own modifications.
[Rampant Desires]
[Category: Spell Card]
[Rarity: Purple Rare]
[Tier: 3]
[Effect: Causes a surge in desires for all individuals within a certain range. The size of the area determines mana consumption.]
[Note: Dekan's first tier 3 spirit-type magic! Experimental version, still in the process of developing an advanced version!]
This card could amplify the desires within an enemy's heart. For instance, Viscount Augustine, just released from years of seal, must have an intense craving for blood. When this desire became magnified, he would uncontrollably, irrationally absorb the assassin sister's blood.
This ensured that Dekan and Cornelia wouldn't have to work overtime later. After all, a tier 6 vampire was still a bit challenging to deal with.
"Why does Dekan's new card cater to the demon race's preferred type of magic again... It doesn't have much impact in straightforward combat, but in manipulation and inducement... it's too terrifying."
Whenever they saw Dekan create a new card, students from the College of Alchemy would start a series of discussions.
"Demons like using these kinds of cards for sure..."
"Regardless, the effectiveness of such a card depends entirely on the user."
"It's a pity that demons are almost extinct in this world and only a few ancient demon cards are left."
"Come to think of it, Dekan's card archetype seems to lean toward demon cards. He couldn't really be a demon, could he?"
Although there were doubts, they felt it was impossible.
After all, the racial identification during the entrance test clearly stated that Dekan was human. Even when the Cardmaker Association later tested him, the result remained the same.
...
"Rampant Desires" had a very high upper limit if used properly.
But it had a severe side effect.
It ignored friend and foe; everyone would be affected together.
So when using this spell card, Dekan had to ensure he didn't have any strong desires within himself. Otherwise, it might lead to serious mistakes.
He emptied his mind, silently reciting Buddhist scriptures, trying not to think about anything, avoiding any desires from being magnified.
"Meow!"
However, despite Dekan's instructions, Teacher Cat couldn't resist and jumped out of Dekan's shadow.
"Dekan! Give me your little treasury right now, meow!"
"I want to eat delicious food, meow!"
"I also want a handsome cat to meow with! Dekan, transform quickly!"
Teacher Cat had gone completely mad, bouncing onto Dekan's shoulder and rubbing against his face.
"..."
Seeing Teacher Cat's reaction, even Dekan started to feel a bit frightened.
I considered you a pet, but you want...
It seemed this card's power was even greater than he had imagined.
Dekan quickly glanced at Cornelia.
While Cornelia initially seemed normal, her body gradually began to tremble. She appeared to have lost control, abruptly turned her head, and stared intensely at Teacher Cat. In an instant, her gaze frightened Teacher Cat to the point that its fur stood on end.
"Meow! Help!"
It instinctively jumped down and started running, now fully awakened by fear.
"Let me hug you!"
Cornelia, however, rushed toward Teacher Cat, determined to catch it no matter what.
"Both of you, stop it! If you end up running into me, I might die right there!"
"You damn cat, get away from me! Don't run around me!"
"Cornelia, calm down for a moment! When we get back to school, I'll have Lil Gray accompany you!"
