The magic cards I made are absolutely flawless!

He was truly terrified of this beast's methods.

If there were any other methods, he really couldn't imagine what kind of nonsense this devilish priest could come up with.

"Alright, congratulations on reaching the final stage."

"Do not!!!"

As the Marquis had expected, Dekan's amused tone indicated that the Marquis's punishment was far from over.

Amid the Marquis's lament, Cornelia quickly revealed the answer to him.

She then dragged a grill from outside and placed the coffin over the fire to roast.

Although the coffin that sealed the Marquis could withstand physical and magical attacks up to the eighth rank, and was even waterproof and airtight.

However, it likely lacks temperature insulation functionality.

Time passed second by second.

The coffin was gradually charred black, but it showed no signs of breaking down.

Marquis Roderick actually fell silent.

He enjoyed a rare moment of peace.

They don't even call out anymore.

He seemed to think, "That's it?"

After all, he was a vampire marquis. Although temperatures of several hundred or even several thousand degrees were torture for him, they were far less deadly than the torture of hunger.

However, Dekan simply smiled.

This marquis is still too young.

After confirming that the temperature has risen to its limit.

With a smile, Dekan summoned his trump card, [Ruined Poet].

This amplifies the Marquis of Roderick's pain tenfold.

Suddenly, the Marquis of Roderick's pitiful roar echoed throughout the entire church once more...

"Then let's torture him like this, taking turns."

Cornelia spins the Marquis, while Dekan and Morion whet his appetite, and they roast him while the three of them rest.

This process of three groups per course of treatment is repeated in rotation.

To prevent the marquis from developing patience for any of the tortures.

After two rounds.

Marquis Roderick seemed to have no strength left to make a sound.

"You three... never mind, the school's disciplinary assessment is hopeless..."

Teacher Cat feels tired.

These three living devils, doing such things, could still happily play with Dekan's deck of cards in the church.

They are truly not guilty at all, and are not afraid of being watched by the gods.

If Teacher Cat weren't certain that this method wouldn't kill vampires, she would have suspected that Marquis Roderick in the coffin was already dead.

Even if the Marquis manages to break the seal and escape now, he will probably be mentally unstable and have basically gone mad.

"Meow meow meow, Dekan, why are you torturing it like this?"

"Teacher Cat asked, puzzled."

Even if we follow Dekan's usual tactics, trying to increase the enemy's hatred towards him as much as possible in order to achieve the infinite control of [Captain Dekan].

Torture one marquis is enough.

However, it seems that Dekan's current intention is to torment the Marquis to the point of complete breakdown.

De: "Of course I have a brilliant plan. I'm not the kind of guy who enjoys tormenting others."

Cat: "Are you sure, meow...?"

162 The Legend of the Fastest Clear of Dekan

"Marquis, let me ask you a question: do you still have even the slightest hope in your heart?"

After the coffin was cooled down.

Decan, unusually merciful, granted the Marquis a brief respite.

He walked up to the coffin and asked the Marquis of Roderick a question.

"..."

The Marquis of Roderick remained silent.

Perhaps they felt that any communication was meaningless.

It's also possible that they genuinely didn't have the strength to speak.

“You are expecting your people to rescue you and then return these torments to me a thousandfold.”

"It's truly remarkable that your clansmen were able to partially break your seal."

"It was so close, but unfortunately High Priest Kevin stopped it, wasn't it?"

Dekan continued asking.

"..."

The Marquis still did not reply.

“I can’t bear to extinguish your last glimmer of hope, Marquis.”

Dekan wore a playful smile, seemingly quite sympathetic to the Marquis.

The Marquis felt that Dekan was just trying to scare him.

After all, it was impossible for Dekan to kill him.

It may torment him for a while, but it won't torment him forever.

Once the seal is broken, he will take everything back.

"Hmph, I love seeing the reaction of someone like you, clinging to a sliver of illusory hope as your spiritual pillar, when you finally realize the truth."

As he spoke, Dekan placed his hand on the coffin and temporarily cut off the live stream.

Then he used the magic within his body to activate the [True Word Blood Pact] he had formed with Isabel.

The soul imprint formed by the master-servant contract slowly appeared on Dekan's hand like a curse mark.

"Marquis, do you recognize this spell?"

The moment Dekan finished speaking, the Marquis's devastating roar echoed throughout the church.

"No!!! Impossible!!! We clearly killed everyone who knew this spell!!! It shouldn't be here!!!"

Marquis Roderick's voice was filled with endless resentment and despair.

He would never mistake this forbidden magic created by the most wicked human wizard—the Blood Pact of Truth.

Specifically designed to enslave high-ranking vampires who are difficult to kill.

This is a nightmare that the entire vampire clan can never forget.

"Marquis, now you know, right? I've been playing along with you all along."

Decan was very satisfied with Marquis Roderick's reaction.

According to the records of the Holy Ritual Church, it was because a wizard developed this spell that the vampires came out in droves to fight a decisive battle against humans.

Although humanity ultimately won a Pyrrhic victory, the vampires only stopped after slaughtering all the humans who possessed this spell.

The Blood Pact of Truth has since become a lost magic.

However, as the holder of the contract after the [True Word Blood Pact] took effect, Dekan would naturally lead Marquis Roderick to mistakenly believe that Dekan had mastered this spell.

So they were completely fooled by Dekan, unaware that it was actually the result of the magic cards.

"So, Marquis, I have been waiting for your kinsmen to come and release you as soon as possible. What you thought was hope is actually the true beginning of your despair."

"You've been tortured to this extent by me. Even if the seal is broken, will you be able to lift your hand? And your real name, your race, your gender—I don't need to say more, do I?"

The activation condition for 【True Word Blood Pact】 is that the enemy loses the will to fight or the ability to fight.

The required declaration content, real name, race, and gender have already been clearly stated.

"Oh my, my future slave, I really want to have you as soon as possible."

Dekan's tone was full of pleasure, as if he had already gotten into the swing of things.

The priest persona always seems to fit surprisingly well with various dramas.

"You, what exactly are you...?!"

Marquis Roderick could no longer maintain his composure; his words were filled with terror and despair.

"..."

Dekan smiled and remained silent.

He has already ended the live stream, showing little concern.

He moved a little closer to the coffin, his pupils shimmering and gradually turning golden.

"This world is doomed. We demons will eventually rule the entire Holy Kingdom, and you vampires will be our slaves forever."

He delivered that final boss-like line in a voice full of mesmerizing charm.

Dekan's clear blue eyes quickly returned, a faint smile playing on his lips as he resumed his benevolent priestly demeanor and gazed at the coffin.

Awaiting the Marquis of Roderick's reaction.

After a long silence, the Marquis of Roderick finally spoke.

"You...you guys have finally come back after all...?"
