The magic cards I made are absolutely flawless!

"Then I'll wait for you to come and redeem your things."

Dekan picked up his suitcase and prepared to leave.

How can I find you?

The black-haired youth asked, head bowed.

Dekan feigned a moment's hesitation, then looked earnestly at the black-haired youth and said:

"You are both a respectable opponent and a formidable opponent that I fear. I never imagined that there would be a man of your caliber in the world today."

Upon hearing these words, the black-haired youth looked up at Dekan, and his eyes seemed to regain some sparkle.

Dekan understood immediately upon seeing this reaction.

This guy is just like Alice; you should praise him to death to ruin him!

Then Dekan continued:

"If you want to see me again, you need to swear an oath—"

"Whether fate makes us friends or enemies, you will not use force or coercion to take back the bet you lost to me."

"I believe in your magnanimity as an unparalleled expert! If you are willing to make a promise, you can contact me anytime in the future, and I will be there for you to the end!"

The black-haired youth smiled with relief and nodded without hesitation.

He swore:

"I swear to the gods who hold the power of fortune and destiny, I will not..."

“I don’t believe in gods, but I’m asking you to swear an oath because I believe in you. Please swear by your real name.”

Dekan interrupted him.

The black-haired youth was taken aback, but without questioning Dekan, he renewed his oath:

“I, Clay Volker, swear that I will never take these bets back from you by force or coercion, whether you are an enemy or a friend in the future.”

Dekan: "Okay, my name is Morion. Come find me when you have money."

"Mollion..."

Clay frowned slightly as he muttered to himself.

He seemed to have heard the name Morion before, but couldn't quite place where.

"Consider this card a loan to you; you can use it to contact the two of us."

As he spoke, Dekan returned the [Extreme Long-Range Communication Magic] that he had won from Clay to Clay.

Just now, Chloix used her [Long-Range Communication Magic] to link with this card like Kree.

Clay nodded and accepted the card without hesitation.

"By the way, Clay, since we've met, let me give you a little hint."

Dekan seemed to hesitate for a long time before finally deciding to tell Clay something before parting ways.

"how?"

"You may be facing a bloody disaster soon, and you may also attract some unknown evil spirits in the future, causing you to be plagued by nightmares. To avoid all of this, you must do good deeds and accumulate merit, and find your destined savior."

"What do you mean?"

Clay's tone was clearly unhappy.

He hates it when people say such unlucky things.

"I did a little divination for you, but it might not be very accurate. Ultimately, your destiny is determined by yourself."

Dekan picked up the box and left without looking back, saying this.

"...Who exactly are you?"

"I'm just a traveler who studies divination and fortune; you can choose to forget what I just said."

With those last words, Dekan and Chloeux completely disappeared outside the VIP room.

Clay, sitting in the VIP room, fell silent.

He was somewhat bothered by Dekan's words.

This guy is really mysterious.

......

Kroix and Dekan emerged from the underground club.

"Dekan, who exactly is this guy that you'd go through all this trouble for?"

Chloeux, who had been listening nearby, felt sorry for the guy named Clay.

Although Chloeux wasn't quite sure what Dekan specifically wanted to do.

But he knew that nothing Dekan had said was superfluous.

They practically wanted to completely swindle this guy named Clay!

"He is the mad bishop of the Church of the Resurrection."

Dekan replied calmly.

He had previously seen the seal he had won from Clay.

The mark above corresponds to the most arrogant and deranged bishop I had seen at the synod.

"You're not kidding?!"

Upon hearing Dekan's words, even the usually composed Chloeux couldn't help but experience a dramatic change in expression.

"Of course, if I'm not mistaken, Clay's purpose in coming to the Kingdom of Landil this time is to deal with us."

Neither the northern kingdoms nor the Church of Resurrection would let go of the golden opportunity for Dekan to leave the Kingdom of Norton.

Moreover, Dekan remembered that at the bishops' council, the Mad Bishop had made a threatening statement that if Dekan dared to leave the Kingdom of Norton, he would definitely come and kill Dekan.

Unfortunately, Clay is a gambling addict.

Before they even started anything, Dekan had completely swindled them out of everything.

197 Dekan was once again mistaken for a demon.

"So we spent the whole afternoon playing with the Mad Bishop?"

Chloeux felt like this afternoon had gone by in a daze.

Back at the manor that evening, they told Cornelia and Mia about their amazing adventure, but they probably wouldn't believe them.

"This was just an unexpected bonus. Actually, our main achievement this afternoon was doing something really good."

"what?"

Chloeux remembered that they helped Tata around noon.

All they did in the afternoon was make money.

Dekan: "We prevented a major heist from happening."

Chloeux: "Are we stopping ourselves?"

Dekan: "Of course!"

Chloeux: "..."

To be honest, Chloeux hadn't expected them to have such a peaceful afternoon.

"If Clay finds out you were lying to him, won't he be so angry that he'll come after us and fight us to the death?"

"What's there to be afraid of? It's all Morion's doing, it has nothing to do with me."

Dekan is now in Morion's form and giving the name Morion, so what does it have to do with Dekan?

Chloeux nodded.

He has always supported the idea of ​​sabotaging Morion.

The thought that Clay might go to the southern kingdoms and cause Morion a lot of trouble in the future made Chloeux quite amused.

We'll see if Clay beats Morion to a pulp or if Morion takes over and tricks Clay.

Either way, it's quite entertaining.

So Dekan and Chloeux put on masks, found a clothing store, changed into new clothes and removed the disguises Mir had given them, and then headed toward the carriage that was waiting for them.

It was getting dark, and their journey to the center of the capital would probably take another hour or two.

So Dekan and Chloeux bought a lot of food from a roadside shop and brought it back to the carriage.

Upon opening the car door, Dekan saw Tata sitting quietly inside.

Dekan just heard from the Knight that this little girl has been staying in the car without saying a word since she arrived.

They didn't get off the bus even once.

It's estimated that they were worried about missing Dekan and Chloeux's return, and then being mistaken for absconding with the money.

"Sorry to have kept you waiting, we can go home now."

Dekan's cheerful voice caught Tata's attention.

Although she knew the two people had finally returned when she noticed the commotion outside the car, she still had a sullen face and had no intention of paying attention to them.

However, when she saw Dekan's face clearly, she couldn't help but widen her eyes.

Why are you so surprised?

Dekan observed Tata's expression and asked a question he already knew the answer to, with a smile.

He had already been surprised, now it was Tata's turn to be surprised.

"Is this your true appearance?"

Tata heard Dekan's voice again and was finally convinced.

Despite the change in appearance, this guy is still the same bad guy who helped her before.
