The magic cards I made are absolutely flawless!

Dekan's tone gradually softened as he spoke.

"...?"

This surprised Baron Batchell.

Cornelia nudged Baron Bachcher's head with a hammer.

It means: Hurry up and thank Brother Dekan?

"Thank you, thank you!"

"No matter what, I will not kill you. I promise you, I swear to you, please rest assured!"

Dekan squinted and gave a warm and gentle smile.

It was as if the glacier between him and Baron Batchell had melted away in an instant.

He reached out his hand to Baron Bachcher from afar, like an angel, as if to offer him salvation.

Bachcher felt like his brain had completely shut down.

What's going on here?

Is this high-ranking demon really that kind?

Impossible, absolutely impossible!

Could it be one of those legendary demons that are not meant to be killed?

A demon that can completely control its killing desires is far more terrifying than a demon obsessed with its killing instincts!

This is a quality that only the highest-ranking demons can possess!

Baron Batchell felt even more fearful.

However, it seems there is hope for me; the highest-ranking demon has no reason to lie.

His oath should be valid.

Just as Baron Bachcher received Decan's promise and was about to breathe a sigh of relief.

Dekan continued, "So, swear allegiance to me, or live in endless torment? Tell me your answer."

"......ah?"

Baron Bachcher's mood was like a rollercoaster.

Is this what it means to be alive?

For you, killing is actually a form of mercy?

Baron Bachcher looked at Decan's chilling smile and felt the cold, blunt weapon on his head.

For the first time, he understood what it felt like to feel fear that came from the depths of one's soul.

"I...I choose to submit to you..."

The noble and elegant Baron Batchell finally succumbed completely, giving a trembling answer.

"very good."

Dekan sat in his chair, looking down at Baron Bachcher.

"Now I'm going to tell you a secret, so please listen carefully."

Then Dekan took a deep breath and said in a serious tone, "Actually, I am not a demon, I am human."

"Impossible!! You are a demon! A demon among demons!"

Baron Bachcher cried out in alarm.

This was the most outrageous joke he had ever heard in his life.

"What? Say that again?"

Dekan raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised and angry.

This was the first time he had ever been called a demon by a demon.

Dekan admitted that sometimes the cards he made might be a little bit weird, but that shouldn't be taken out on him personally!

"No, no, no, you are human! You are not a demon!"

Noticing Dekan's expression, Bachcher quickly changed his tune, trying to salvage the situation.

"You're just trying to fool me. Don't think you can fool me about anything. You have to genuinely believe that I'm human."

Dekan's tone suggested he was genuinely angry.

This filled Baron Batchell with immense fear.

Does Dekan have mind-reading abilities?

Baron Bachcher couldn't help but begin to have such doubts.

His brain was working at lightning speed.

Although he couldn't reach a conclusion immediately, he knew that even if he had to frantically hypnotize himself, he had to do it according to Dekan's wishes.

Because Dekan's requirements were very clear: he could not lie, nor could he deny what he said.

Baron Bachcher began to frantically deceive himself, and finally shouted to Dekan with unwavering conviction: "Yes, you are human!"

[Mission Objective 3: No more than 3 imposters whose human identities have been exposed; currently, 5/6 of them are still in disguise]

Dekan looked at the changes in the notification interface and nodded in satisfaction.

Although he couldn't read minds, he could tell from the quest log whether Baron Batchell truly believed he was human.

Since the mind of a demon can be manipulated, then... hehehehehehe.

Dekan couldn't help but laugh out loud.

022 Dekan begins military training, the devil.

“Good, Baron Bachcher, you’ve finally been honest for once.”

Dekan clapped his hands and praised.

This confirmed Baron Bachcher's belief that Decan could read minds!

No lie matters to him.

He can distinguish between his true feelings and his own emotions!

"Okay, so your attack just now frightened me and caused irreversible damage to my fragile heart, so you inflicted cruel torture on me, do you admit it?"

Dekan continued to ask.

Without much hesitation, Baron Bachcher once again frantically deceived his own conscience, answering, "I...I admit it."

He suspected that Dekan was testing his loyalty, trying to use lie detector magic to subtly influence his upbringing.

Even if Dekan's words were absurd, he had to go along with them.

Dekan then asked, "Next, Cornelia tried to rescue me, and you, being kind-hearted, decided to let me go. So she successfully rescued me. Do you approve of that?"

Baron Bachcher: "Approved, approved."

[Mission Objective 2: Rescue at least three humans, current progress 1/3]

Dekan's smile grew even brighter: "Finally, you suddenly forgot that I'm human, didn't you?"

Baron Bachcher: "Yes, yes!"

[Mission Objective 3: No more than 3 imposters whose human identities have been exposed; currently, 6/6 of them are still in disguise]

The task interface was changing just as Dekan had predicted.

“Very well, Baron Bachel, you are now an honest devil, and it seems you have finally opened your heart to me.”

Dekan looked very satisfied and didn't hold back in praising Baron Bachcher.

Baron Bachcher trembled, unsure how to respond to Dekan's words.

To be fair, even now his fear of Dekan outweighs all other emotions.

The phrase "open your heart" is still too much.

But he dared not refute it, and could only keep hypnotizing himself: I have opened my heart, I have opened my heart.

Only after confirming that he had even developed a certain admiration for Dekan did Baron Bachcher finally dare to answer: "Yes, I have opened my heart to you."

"Ruzi can be taught!"

Dekan slapped his thigh and stamped his foot, standing up from the chair.

We finally succeeded.

He was pleased and continued to instruct Baron Bachcher: "Very well, then I'll have to trouble you now. Do you still remember our conversation and your thought process perfectly?"

"what?"

Baron Bachcher was stunned.

Dekan frowned slightly: "Don't you remember? Do you need me to help you recall?"

Baron Bachcher instinctively shuddered: "I remember, I remember!"

"Very well! Baron Batchell, repeat your thought process a hundred times, and shout it out loud!"

Dekan's expression turned serious as he gave the order.

Baron Bachcher: "Yes!"

So Baron Bachcher began shouting to Decan, “You are human! I tormented you! You were rescued! I forgot you were human! I opened my heart to you!”
