The magic cards I made are absolutely flawless!

With this level of skill, how can you be so arrogant?

Are you kidding me?

You actually don't know anything at all, do you?

Facing imminent death, he decides to wholeheartedly enjoy the food?

Baron Bachcher looked at Dekan, who still seemed completely unfazed.

He felt like he had been tricked.

What about your fear, your despair?

That's the best seasoning I deserve!

With that look on your face, like you've just finished enjoying your meal and want something else to drink, do you really think this is a restaurant?

"Hehehe, this is the first time I've ever seen a student like you."

Baron Batchell was furious, yet he laughed in exasperation.

"I've made up my mind. I'm going to chew you up in my mouth! As punishment for not satisfying me!"

With a somewhat annoyed voice from Baron Bachcher, his neck stretched out again, and his entire neck reverted to its monstrous form.

This time, however, he had no interest in admiring his prey and opened his mouth wide to bite Dekan!

Just then, Cornelia suddenly sprang into action, a hammer appearing in her hand. She stepped onto the dining table, leaped forward, and smashed it down hard on Baron Bachcher's outstretched neck.

"boom!"

The loud sound, like metal clashing, was exceptionally clear in the otherwise quiet classroom.

Sparks flew as Cornelia's warhammer clashed with Baron Bachcher's scales, and a faint smell of gunpowder, like that of a foundry, filled the air.

Baron Bachcher's neck was slammed into a bizarre angle by Cornelia's blow, sending him flying backward.

Cornelia was also thrown back by the force, and it took her two hard stomps to stop herself, but her eyes revealed a long-suppressed excitement.

Finally, we can fight without restraint.

Only she could understand what Dekan had just said.

It means: "Cornelia, I've poisoned him. When he's about to eat me, you should ambush him."

At the same time, black fog spread.

Dekan had retreated behind Cornelia and summoned the Broken Poet.

Baron Bachcher tried to sit up, looking annoyed.

He was at his weakest point when Cornelia launched a sneak attack.

Besides the lingering pain deeply etched on his neck, he also felt an increasingly intense, inexplicable cramping pain in his abdomen.

However, he had no chance to think about anything, nor had he had time to organize a counterattack against Cornelia and Dekan.

As black mist filled the classroom, the pain in Baron Bachcher's body suddenly intensified tenfold in an instant.

He lost control and fell to his knees, spitting out a mouthful of foul blood.

The carpet stained with blood instantly began to emit wisps of smoke, as if it had been corroded.

He coughed a few more times, as if trying to cough up his internal organs, and spat out several oddly shaped small spikes.

"Ahhhh!"

"What, what have you all done?!"

In shock and rage, Baron Batchell twisted his neck and roared with all his might.

This pain was unlike any feeling he could describe with experience or language; it was a continuous torment that transcended the extreme.

He lay on the ground, writhing wildly, as if something was tearing him apart from the inside out.

"Behave yourself."

Cornelia leaped off the long table, landed on Baron Bachcher's back, and pressed a hammer against his head.

It seemed to have calmed him down a bit.

"Humph."

With a soft laugh, Dekan dragged a chair out from the long table.

He placed a chair in front of Baron Bachcher, sat down, and rested his chin on his hands, fingers interlaced.

"You are not qualified to ask questions. This is my interrogation time."

Dekan looked at Baron Bachcher, who was lying on the ground, with a hint of mockery in his expression.

020 Dekan wanted to win people over with virtue.

The reason Baron Bachcher was poisoned was actually quite simple.

As soon as Dekan entered the cooking class, he secretly slipped three [Poisonous Spikes] into the devil student's pocket.

Moreover, it is the latest version that has been continuously improved by Dekan.

【Highly Poisonous Ground Spike 2.4】

[Category: Spell Card]

[Grade: Blue Rare]

[Class: 2]

[Effect: Inflicts a continuous poison and bleeding status effect. This spell can be triggered at a distance.]

[Note: The current version is 2.4, which has fixed a bug where poison could be removed by second-tier purification magic - Developer's Diary]

When Decan heard Baron Bachel's opening remarks, "I cordially invite you to my dinner party,"

He had a hunch that the loser of this game would likely become Baron Batchell's dinner.

After all, it was Baron Bachcher's dinner party.

What does Bachcher want to eat?

It was clear that he saw three little devils in his bloodthirsty eyes.

In that case, as long as Baron Batchell eats that devilish student, there is a high chance that the poisonous nails will successfully enter his stomach.

Using the [Poisonous Spikes] to hunt large magical beasts is a stunt that Dekan has consistently used since his time in the Kuran border region.

First, capture the small wild animals that monsters like to eat.

Place highly toxic spikes inside the bodies of small wild animals.

Then drive them to the vicinity of the large monster's habitat.

After confirming that the large monster has captured and fed on a small beast, summon the Broken Bard from the shadows and then trigger the Poisonous Spikes.

As long as Dekan continues to supply mana, the poisonous spikes will not disappear.

Most importantly, Decan softened and strengthened the flexibility of the highly toxic spikes, and applied a special anti-acid corrosion coating.

Once this card is swallowed by the prey, it can continuously trigger poisonous spikes in its stomach.

The prey can be killed without bloodshed.

The only downside is that retrieving the cards is a bit of a hassle; it's likely that the three cards in Bachcher's stomach won't be retrieved.

But it's not a big problem; it's time to develop a new version.

"Cornelia, help me tie him up."

Dekan was in command.

Cornelia nodded, put away the hammer, and took out another card that Dekan had given her.

Steel wire rope

[Category: Equipment Card]

Grade: Common White

[Class: 1]

【Effect: None】

[Note: It can also be used as a weapon.]

This is Decan, which maximizes mechanical properties and geometry. It is made by twisting steel wires together in a spiral shape according to rules, plus a rope core and lubricant.

Despite being a Tier 1 blank card, once it was tightly bound by steel wire, even a Tier 4 warrior could not break free by brute force.

Cornelia quickly and tightly bound the convulsing Baron Bachcher, then stepped on his back again to keep him still.

"All right."

"Thanks for your hard work."

Dekan slowly raised his right hand, and the broken poet transformed into a stream of light that gathered between his fingers, turning back into a card.

Bachelet felt like he had been reborn.

The agonizing pain that had been eroding him diminished dramatically in an instant, as if a curse had been lifted.

It took him quite a while for his consciousness to fully return to his mind.

Although he was still tormented by pain, the air he breathed now seemed sweeter than before.

"Are you in the mood to talk to me now?"

Dekan leaned forward slightly, looking down at Baron Bachcher and asking.

"Die!"

Baron Bachcher had only one thought in his mind.

That is: get rid of this guy quickly.

He is the root of all evil!

Baron Bachcher's eyes were filled with a bloodthirsty light. He used all his strength to try to break free from the rope, which did not look too thick, but found it to be exceptionally strong.
