Chapter 116. Will Dekan Tolerate a Villain's Grandstanding? (1/2)
Viscount Lampard sat in the carriage, listening to the conversation of the Beautiful Mind Squad trio.
He felt that something was off no matter how he looked at it.
Aren't you guys here to defend Tristine City?
Why does it feel like you're really here for tourism?
Е n̈ u̇ m а
And you're even tourists who came to join in the fun during the celebration.
The lord wanted to say something, but he held back.

He had heard of the fame of Dekan's team before.
But no matter how Dekan and Cornelia ran rampant in the Demon Academy and the snowy mountains, that was all in the Shadow World.
This was the real world.
Are you guys still so lacking in a sense of urgency?
W е̂b̊n о v̊ е_l̇ Е̇ ń üm.а̀
Combat in the real world and the Shadow World could be said to be worlds apart.
If a major crisis was encountered, the real world was far more dangerous than the Shadow World.
The most obvious point was—
The Shadow World would have reasonable mechanisms for protection, which did not exist in the real world.

Besides providing certain information and instructions, the strength of the enemies in the Shadow World would also be within a certain range.
To ensure that the challenger could not fall into a dead end from the very beginning.
W̌еb̄ñо́ v̄ е̊ ľ Е̌ǹū m а̄
Even the final powerful enemy of the Shadow World could have its approximate rank deduced from the Shadow World's level.
At the very least, even if things went south.
The challenger could still hold out until the time limit ended and be teleported back to the real world, thus resolving the crisis.
Someone like Dekan could even completely cast off his moral burdens in some Shadow Worlds and do whatever he wanted.
And in the real world, Dekan couldn't completely let himself go.
Many of his actions in the Shadow World would lead to him being imprisoned directly.

For example, the great deeds he did in the Demon Academy.
"Dekan, are you confident?"
Viscount Lampard hesitated for a long time before asking Dekan with some worry.
The closer it got to the critical moment, the more he found himself out of sync with the state of the other three.
He felt more and more nervous, and even had strong heart palpitations from time to time.
Although the situation seemed excellent at the moment.
E ñù m̆ а̇. іd
But.
Perhaps very soon.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
The Resurrection Church was about to reveal its true ultimate move.
If what arrived at that time was an irresistible disaster, everything would take a sharp turn for the worse in an instant.
Perhaps not only would the Ice Snow Princess be captured.
The entire Tristine City would also be destroyed to pieces.
Е nǔ_m а̃
If there was an opportunity to massacre the city, the Resurrection Church would probably not let it go.
Dekan and Lampard's series of actions must have thoroughly angered the Resurrection Church.
Looking at the lord's worried expression, Dekan couldn't help but laugh.
"Don't worry, as long as it's not the Pontiff of the Resurrection Church who comes, I should always have some way."
Baca cerita ini hanya di situs resmi Enuma.id!
He patted the lord's shoulder.
Dekan's favorability towards the lord was still very high.
Ẇ е̄b̆ n о̌.ve l̇ Ёnû m̃а
This reliable lord had also helped him a lot.
Most importantly, the lord's attitude towards Dekan made Dekan very comfortable.
What he liked most was this kind of person who made him feel at ease and relieved.
So Dekan decided to give the lord a rough idea for the time being.
Dekan was not an arrogant person.
He was very clear about the difference between the real world and the Shadow World.

Once you get into big trouble in the real world.
You could encounter an enemy several ranks higher than yourself at any time, and then be instantly killed.
After all, the plot where the protagonist is 3rd-rank and the enemy just happens to be a group of 4th-ranks to send experience is simply unreasonable.
It would only appear in that kind of brain-dead novel.
Dekan had long wanted to complain about many of the novels he had read in his previous life.
Putting aside whether the villain team had a clear understanding of the threat level of the protagonist.
W еbn̄ ӧv е̃ l̀ Еn̆ u mа
Even if the protagonist encountered enemies randomly.
He shouldn't always happen to meet ones that are just a little higher level than himself, right?
Baca cerita ini hanya di situs resmi Enuma.id!
From the perspective of statistics and probability, it was unreasonable.
So Dekan was always prepared to face enemies several ranks higher than himself.
Even if one day he returned to his dormitory and found a Cardinal from the Resurrection Church sitting on his sofa, he wouldn't be too surprised.
If he really encountered one, regardless of whether he could win.
Ēn u m а̃. і̄d
At least Dekan had seriously considered how to fight.
Opportunity always favors the prepared old schemer.
But for now.
Dekan believed that the situation in Tristine City would not be too bad.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
The Pontiff was certainly restricted in some way and could not personally take action.
Otherwise, there would be no need for much planning, and there would be no need for that group of elite Resurrection Church cultists to cause trouble.

He could just come and capture the Ice Snow Princess directly.
From the interrogated information, the main force sent by the Resurrection Church this time was only a trusted subordinate of a Cardinal.
In other words, the highest combat power of the enemy this time was likely 7th-rank.
Even the Cardinal could not personally come to deal with the Ice Snow Princess.
"Just believe in our professional team."
Dekan said.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
"I believe in your combat ability. Following you, I feel incredibly at ease. But what I'm worried about are the citizens who cannot resist the destructive blow."
Lampard lowered his head somewhat powerlessly.
As a lord, he had too many things to worry about.
He knew that Dekan's combat ability was difficult to measure by rank.
After all, Dekan's unique system meant that as long as Dekan could execute a combo, he could inflict strong control that ignored rank differences.
What the lord feared most were the Resurrection Church's bottomless tactics.
Е n u m̆ а̀
"Don't worry, the civilians will basically not be threatened much."
Dekan spread his hands and explained rather relaxedly.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
"If I'm not mistaken, the Resurrection Church probably wanted to use 5th and 6th-rank elites to attack the key facilities of Tristine City on a certain night."
"For example, attacking the lord's mansion and the magic energy station, kidnapping students from Tristine Academy as hostages, or directly blowing up the prison."
"Then they might also threaten the Ice Snow Princess, putting her in a position where she has to fight with her hands tied."
"And create a period of time where the knight order and security forces of Tristine City cannot come to support the Ice Snow Princess."
Еṅ_ūm а. і̂ d̀_
"Finally, the enemy's main force would find a way to defeat the Ice Snow Princess under these excellent conditions, and then take her away."
"But we have now very smoothly dealt with the elite Resurrection Church cultists, so regardless of whether the Ice Snow Princess is safe or not, you don't need to worry too much about the civilians."
"Their subsequent means are likely prepared countermeasures against the Ice Snow Princess. They probably don't have the spare capacity to harm the civilians."
Dekan slowly finished his explanation—as an expert, this was how he judged the Resurrection Church's action strategy.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
The lord was stunned as he listened.
You speak so logically, how does it feel like you've personally seen the Resurrection Church's plan?
Wе̊b n̂ о̌ v̆ ё ľ Ӗ ń u ṁ а
…
Tristine Cathedral.
In the empty and spacious cathedral, there was only a single nun with a gentle temperament sitting.
Sunlight penetrated the cathedral's glass, refracting and emitting a faint glow, illuminating her side as bright as day.
She sat in an inconspicuous position, her palms pressed together, as if a devout believer was praying for something.
However, she seemed to feel something, and her body trembled slightly twice.

It seemed to become gradually difficult to maintain her composure, and she clenched her teeth.
Her expression gradually became ferocious.
She had just used a scout-type spell to investigate the situation outside.
The entire Tristine City had become a hell for the Resurrection Church cultists!
The masses were hunting church members??
This absurd scene, which wouldn't even appear in the Shadow World, even made her suspect for a moment that there was something wrong with her investigation spell.
Еn̊ ũm ǎ
"Heh… heh…"
She placed her hand on her chest. Dekan's wave of underworld planning made her a little angry and anxious.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
A great humiliation!
Especially for her, the commander who was leading this operation!
Originally, she had already considered avoiding Dekan.
She didn't expect this kid to actively walk into the line of fire.
Wе̇b̆ńo v̄ е l̆ Е̂n̆ŭ mӓ
And he even successfully disrupted their plan.
"Dekan, you will regret this!"
Soon, she adjusted her state.
Shadows coiled around her body, and when they dissipated, she had already changed into another appearance.

A suit of pitch-black leather armor was covered with scale-like steel, shining with a cold metallic light under the sunlight.
A hint of coldness was revealed in her eyes, as if she could freeze a person's soul.
Е̊n ǔ m а̊
She was precisely the trusted subordinate sent by the Cardinal—Isabel.
In the original plan, she had absolute confidence in defeating the Ice Snow Princess with a set of countermeasure cards without any interference.
However, a variable had now appeared, and she would not have the opportunity to fight the Ice Snow Princess one-on-one.
Fortunately, this unexpected situation was still within their tolerable range.
Even if that group of elites was hunted down and restricted in this city, unable to move a single step.
It could not change the fate of the Ice Snow Princess being captured!
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
The church had a perfect plan, with more preparations than Dekan could imagine.
Even for countermeasure cards against Dekan, Isabel had prepared several.
If Dekan still insisted on meddling next, she would not hesitate to get rid of this fool who didn't know his place.
But the most important thing now was to first report the current situation to Lord Cardinal.
So Isabel triggered a spell card.

Isabel: "Lord Cardinal, Dekan has managed to root out our elites hidden in Tristine City and is gradually increasing the difficulty of our activities in the city. I need your support to capture the Ice Snow Princess as soon as possible."
E̊n ŭ m а̊ . і̇.ḋ
The other end of the communication seemed a bit noisy, but a voice soon came through:
"Okay, support will be there soon. Get ready to move."
After speaking, the other party cut off the communication.

At the same time.
In a small town in the province adjacent to Tristine City.
Ẃѐb n̆ о̌ vе l̂ Ӗ n̈ u ḿȧ
This small town was on the border of the province, only a few hours' carriage ride from Tristine City.
It was currently lunchtime, and the sounds of laughter and clinking glasses filled a small tavern.
"Oh my, interesting. It seems Isabel has run into trouble."
A red-haired young man with a gentle temperament sat at the bar and lamented with a smile on his face.
He was dressed in clerical attire, his gaze calm, seemingly possessing a maturity that did not match his appearance.
"Father, what were you muttering to yourself just now?"
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
A diner nearby asked him.
PART 2
The priest had just been chatting and laughing with the strange diner next to him.
After a brief exchange, the surrounding diners all found that this priest was a very cheerful person.
"Ah, it's nothing. The church has encountered a little trouble. It seems I'll have to be the one to bear the burden."
He sighed helplessly, but his expression was actually still very relaxed.
Wӗb̆ñ о v̊ е l Ẽ n̂ ù m̂ а
He seemed to have the composure of an absolute powerhouse.
"Then, Father, is there anything we can help you with?"

"You guys? Hmm, let me think. I'm afraid not, but thank you very much for your willingness to help me."
The priest smiled and waved his hand.
As if rejecting the other party's good intentions.
And as if saying goodbye.
W ėb n̈ оv̈е̃ l Èn̊um̈ a
"Well then, goodbye."
Along with the priest's final words.
A burst of flame accompanied by an airflow swept through.
Soaring flames rose, and the entire tavern and the nearby houses were blown away.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
The priest's spell was used too suddenly, too quickly.
The surrounding civilians were vaporized in an instant before they could even feel the pain.
Ĕǹ ǔ m̆a . і̇ d
Amidst the sea of fire and ruins, only the figure of the red-haired priest stood leisurely.
He had a faint smile on his face, as if he were admiring his own back garden.
At the same time, a huge deep red flame shadow rose into the sky and headed towards Tristine City like a comet at high speed.
The priest raised his hand to his forehead and watched this flame shadow depart, as if he found the sunlight a bit dazzling.
"Struggle for me, little Special-Grade Card Maker Dekan."
He said to himself with a smile.

Afterward, as he was about to walk out of this ruin, he seemed to sense some movement.
"Oh, so fast?"
He muttered to himself, and a strange magic book with a red and black color scheme appeared in his hand. Without turning his head, he activated a spell.
Instantly, a translucent deep red flame vortex surrounded him.
The moment the flame appeared, the air in the entire area suddenly boiled, and the scorching energy spread out in all directions at an indescribable speed.
At that moment, it was as if even the ashes would be reignited.
Ѐ n ŭ m̀ȧ.і́ d
The spreading flame collided with a sword light that came from behind him.
"Boom!" a muffled sound erupted.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
The huge impact and the force of the rebound swept around. The entire ruin seemed to have been hit by a storm, and rubble and dust scattered.
The priest still stood motionless in his original spot.
But the figure that had just attacked him from behind retreated several meters before stabilizing.
"Ho ho, haven't had lunch?"
Е n̆ù mа. і̇ ď
The priest squinted his eyes and said with a hint of playfulness as he turned his head.
A female knight with golden hair and silver armor, holding a longsword, was standing behind him.
However, instead of looking at the female knight, the priest's gaze seemed to be fixed only on the longsword in her hand.
A dazzling golden light flowed on the blade, like a sacred and inextinguishable flame.

Even without appraising it, the priest could recognize it as a high-rank epic weapon.
"You insane bastard, why did you kill these innocent civilians?!"
Е̄ n̊u m̈ а̇. іd
The female knight pointed her longsword at the priest, her cold face unable to hide the murderous intent.
"Hmph hmph, if there are civilians around when we fight, you'll also be very constrained, won't you? I've given them a painless release and allowed you to fight with confidence. You should all be grateful to me. This is my greatest kindness."
The priest still held the book with one hand, his back straight, and smiled calmly.
"Beast…"
The female knight stared deadly at the priest,
"Ruin Bishop Ivans! I will definitely bring judgment upon you today!"
Baca cerita ini hanya di situs resmi Enuma.id!
"Oh my, how scary."
The priest said so, but he didn't look panicked at all, and just summoned more summons.
In an instant, it was as if a demon army had gathered around him.
As the two 8th-rank powerhouses approached again, a fierce battle broke out completely in the small town.
Even though Ivans had sent his trump card far away, he was still calm.
He unilaterally suppressed the female knight.
Е n ů ma
It might take another 8th-rank powerhouse to be on equal footing with Ivans.
But this was precisely Ruin Bishop Ivans' mission—
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
To hold back other 8th-rank powerhouses who might go to support Tristine City.
The Kingdom Federation had an astrologer who was a huge headache for the Resurrection Church. She could roughly calculate the activity range of the Resurrection Church's Cardinals every certain period of time.
If several Cardinals suddenly gathered together in a short period of time, it would trigger the highest level of alarm from the Kingdom Federation.
For example, once it was detected that all the Cardinals were approaching the Norton Kingdom.
W̆ ėḃńó vе l. Е̂ ñ.um̄ а̊
It would directly expose the Cardinals' intentions, and then they would be surrounded and annihilated by the combined forces of the 8th-rank powerhouses from several surrounding kingdoms.
So the Cardinals did not dare to gather all their members to capture a certain Special-Grade Card Maker.
They could only try to maintain their normal movements to confuse the Kingdom Federation.
And the only Cardinal who often moved around near the Norton Kingdom was Ruin Bishop Ivans.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
He was the only Cardinal who could provide some support to the Tristine City plan without alerting the Kingdom Federation.
If he was outside the country's borders, the Norton Kingdom generally would not actively seek trouble with the Cardinals.
Е.n̊ ü m̆ а̄
Because these bishops were too difficult to deal with, and their methods were extremely insidious.
But once a Cardinal entered the borders of the Norton Kingdom, the kingdom would have 8th-rank powerhouses who would hunt down and surround the Cardinal at all costs.
So when Ivans entered the borders of the Norton Kingdom, he had been hunted by 8th-rank powerhouses all the way as if he had a built-in taunt effect.
Right now, only one female knight had caught up with him, which he could easily handle.
But it wouldn't be long before more 8th-rank powerhouses arrived.
At that time, he could only fight while running.
Baca cerita ini hanya di situs resmi Enuma.id!
But that was fine, this was precisely Ivans' purpose.
Right now, even if these 8th-rank powerhouses weren't looking for him, he would find a way to stop the 8th-rank powerhouses who were going to support Tristine City.
Otherwise, even if Isabel could capture the Ice Snow Princess, it would be very difficult for her to successfully leave the territory of the Norton Kingdom with her.
…
On the plains of the Norton Kingdom.
A deep red flame shadow streaked across the sky.
W ёb̈ n̂.о̌ v́ѐ_l Ě n u_mа
Wherever it passed, it was as if it blotted out the sun.
The temperature seemed to make the cold winter a little warmer.

However, this was an abnormal temperature change that made any living creature uneasy.
It was as if as long as this flame shadow descended, everything would turn into a scorched-earth hell.
Tristine City.
The Ice Snow Princess put down the cup in her hand, stood up abruptly, and looked out the window.
W̃ e b̊ ň ӧ v̌ е̄l Е́ n ūṁ а
She felt that something terrifying was getting closer and closer to Tristine City.
She looked into the distance, frowning, as if trying hard to appraise something.
【Demon King of Ruin - Zesterli】
【Category: Summon Card】

【Effect: Immune to all control effects. Will be resurrected immediately after death, with a 1-hour cooldown. Each resurrection will cause a large-scale destructive damage.】
【Note: Destruction! Rebirth!】
Soon, the Ice Snow Princess got the appraisal result, and her expression became extremely solemn.
She did not hesitate to use wind magic to fly towards the direction of the attacking 【Demon King of Ruin】 outside the city, leaving a frost-like afterimage in the air.
At the entrance of Tristine Magic Academy.
Dekan stuck his head out of the carriage and raised a pair of binoculars to look at the sesame-sized black shadow in the distant sky.

Without appraising it, he roughly recognized it.
This was the trump card held by one of the ten Cardinals of the Resurrection Church, the Ruin Bishop.
"No way, Ah Fu, are you being a sore loser? How the hell is the Ice Snow Princess supposed to fight this thing."
Dekan put down the binoculars and returned to the carriage, frowning tightly.
Immune to control, which crippled the Ice Snow Princess' greatest strength.
Resurrection, the low-output Ice Snow Princess couldn't wear it down at all.
W̊ е b̃_nov е l̇ Ěn̊_ů m̃ а
And it could also blow up the field. The Ice Snow Princess couldn't fight it in the town and had to go out of the city to intercept it.
To be honest, Dekan was now a little tempted to just go back to the Royal Capital and attend school.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
He might even be able to catch the last class of this afternoon.
Ice Snow Princess, just die.
Besides this 【Demon King of Ruin】, there was also a Cardinal's trusted subordinate who could fight against the Ice Snow Princess hiding in the dark.
The Cardinal's trusted subordinate held that epic spell card that could enslave the Ice Snow Princess, ready to defeat and enslave her at any time.
Е̌ n ü m a .i d̀
It could be said that it was already over for the Ice Snow Princess.
If only the Ice Snow Princess wasn't so aloof and arrogant.
If she could have cooperated with Dekan's preparation plan even a little.
Things wouldn't have been so troublesome.

It could only be said that this woman's brain was also made of ice.
However, Dekan still wanted to try to save her.
Ĕn u m а .і̂ d
Because she was not bad.
The Ice Snow Princess chose to go out of the city to intercept the 【Demon King of Ruin】 at the first moment.
If she was really indifferent to everything, there was no need to fight so resolutely against an 8th-rank epic summon she had no chance of winning against.
"Dekan, what should we do?"
Seeing Dekan's troubled expression, the lord also panicked.
It was the first time he had seen Dekan with "annoyed" written on his face.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
"Right now, I can't say for sure if I can save the Ice Snow Princess, because it depends on whether my companions are willing to take the risk with me."
Dekan replied.
Then Dekan looked at Cloix again and asked:
"Cloix, do you want to go for a big one, or should we just run away with the lord?"
Cloix: "Is going for a big one very dangerous?"
Dekan: "If we go for a big one, we two good brothers might end up together. But if we succeed, the king will at least have to personally host us."
Еnŭ m а̇
Cloix: "You're not thinking of taking out this 【Demon King of Ruin】, are you?"
Dekan: "Be bolder."

Cloix: "Then… you still want to capture that Cardinal's trusted subordinate alive?"
Dekan: "Bolder still."
"…"
This time, Cloix was silent for several seconds.

A terrible possibility gradually formed in his mind.
He asked tentatively:
"…You can't be targeting Ruin Bishop Ivans, can you?"
Dekan nodded:

"I always feel like that guy is grandstanding from afar. I can't stand it. I have to punish him."
"…"
W̆ e̊ b.n̈ ov̈e̊ ĺ Е̄ň u m̃а
At this time, the lord who was sitting next to them listening to their conversation had his mouth wide open in shock.
He was dumbfounded.
If it were anyone else sitting here, they would definitely think that Dekan was a madman!
Is Ivans an enemy you should be worried about right now?
And so you weren't frowning because you were troubled.
But because you can't stand someone grandstanding??!
