The magic cards I made are absolutely flawless!

Instantly.

Pain surged through Fahim's limbs and bones like a tidal wave. The excruciating pain felt as if his internal organs were being ripped apart and his bone marrow was being pulled out. Even his nerves felt like they were being torn apart one by one. The pain was so intense that Fahim's screams became incoherent.

At this moment, Fahim finally understood the feelings of those he had harmed before they died.

With his gradually weakening roars, he finally lost all hope.

……

Those outside the shadow barrier swallowed hard as they listened to Fahim's shrill and desperate screams from within.

Although they had no idea what was happening inside the barrier.

However, no one present did not feel a chill.

They never imagined, nor could they have foreseen, that the final outcome of the duel between Dekan and Fahim would be like this.

It was a hundred times more terrifying than any scenario they had ever imagined.

"Is he... really not the Bishop of Pain?"

"No, stop talking! Even if he is, you'd better play dumb if you want to live!"

211 Dekan's victory celebration

Two weeks later.

Tonight, a banquet is being held in the royal palace of the Kingdom of Landil to celebrate the great victory in the war to protect the nation.

Of the four bishops sent by the Church of Resurrection, the corrupt bishop Fahim was killed in action, the mad bishop Clay fled, and the third bishop, who had never appeared, was also confirmed by the astrologer to have left the Kingdom of Landil.

Only one bishop remains, presumably lingering near the border of Landir.

However, this is a normal phenomenon and there is no need to worry.

It wasn't until yesterday, when the astrologers confirmed the whereabouts of the three surviving bishops, that the Kingdom of Landil finally felt certain of the outcome of the battle and was able to relax.

Therefore, a celebration banquet was held tonight, and Dekan and his entourage were invited as the most distinguished guests.

In addition to the nobles of the country who came to witness the ceremony, there were also foreign envoys, such as other teams participating in the seventh-tier assessment, as well as reinforcements from other countries that came to the Kingdom of Landil.

At this moment, the Beautiful Minds team is traveling to the palace in the same luxurious carriage.

It was a specially made carriage that looked a size larger than the surrounding carriages. The carriage body was painted with flowing gold powder, and the lanterns on the carriage were made of polished immortal crystal.

Compared to the vehicle that initially greeted them from the outskirts of the city, this one was clearly upgraded to the highest standard that the Kingdom of Landil could offer.

The carriage was getting closer and closer to the palace along the palace path.

As the carriage passed the row of carefully pruned cedar trees lining both sides of the road, the carriage was about to arrive at the palace.

"Look ahead, meow."

Following the meow of Teacher Cat, the Beautiful Minds team saw a wide square ahead, not far from the palace, already filled with all kinds of luxurious carriages.

The members of the Beautiful Minds team had all seen a lot, so they were relatively calm.

Only Tata, seeing the various badges on the carriages, was both curious and somewhat dazzled, and couldn't help but rub her eyes.

They couldn't leave Tata alone at home to come to the victory celebration.

Of course, the considerate king knew that their team had kidnapped a child after arriving in the Kingdom of Landil, so he made an extra mention in the invitation that they could bring their relatives and friends.

"Tata, if you don't want to talk to strangers later, just hide behind us."

Dekan looked at Tata beside him and said.

"Ah."

Tata nodded seriously.

Arriving at the royal palace, she felt both joy and a little scared.

Although she has now tied her horns into the shape of hair ornaments and put on a pretty little hat, Mia has also helped her disguise the color of her right eye.

But she was still worried that her demonic features would be exposed.

Dekan seemed to understand Tata's feelings and said with a sly smile:

"Don't worry, with your looks, no one will dare to mess with you. Just enjoy the banquet."

"Ok."

Seeing Dekan's face and hearing his words, Tata gradually felt at ease.

Suddenly I felt like I had a powerful backer.

Moreover, there's no need to actively bring out your backing.

With just her face, people would assume she's Dekan's sister.

……

As the carriage approached the palace, a group of attendants strode up. These attendants were tall and strong, but all were very polite.

They had exceptional respect for the Dekan group.

Although Dekan was just a commoner from another kingdom.

However, the current level of hospitality is at least equivalent to welcoming princes from other countries.

Moreover, on the way to the palace, everyone, whether servants or nobles, showed reverence for Dekan.

Of course, respect might account for 10%, while fear might account for 90%.

If Dekan's reputation is known to everyone in the Kingdom of Landil, especially in the capital.

Have you ever heard of the Painful Bishop?!

It can stop a child from crying at night!

However, no one dared to jokingly call Dekan the Bishop of Pain; they only dared to think so in their hearts.

Although most people have very mixed feelings about Dekan.

but.

At least the appearances must be done well!

Just offer a toast in front of him, and that's it!

Regardless of whether Dekan is a hero, a true bishop of suffering, or a fake bishop of suffering, "don't mess with Dekan" has become common knowledge among the people of Landir.

Otherwise, Fahim's fate will be sealed.

Before they even reached the palace gates, the king himself came out of the palace to greet the group who had just alighted from their carriage.

After exchanging pleasantries, Dekan found the King of Landil to be as approachable as a friendly neighbor.

Back in the border town, it seemed that this was the attitude his neighbors all had towards him.

Have you decided when you'll return to the Kingdom of Norton?

The king asked as he led them into the palace.

"Let's go the day after tomorrow. We can tour the capital a bit more tomorrow, and then we should go back to school, otherwise most of the semester will be wasted."

Dekan thought for a moment and then said.

Although they thought the Kingdom of Landil was a good place.

But they've had enough fun.

We can't let ourselves sink into this state.

The reason Dekan and his men stayed in the Kingdom of Landil for two weeks was that the Kingdom of Landil relied heavily on Dekan's defenses until the crisis was over.

After all, after killing Fahim, he could be considered the number one person in the world who would lead a reborn church.

Despite the fact that Dekan itself is extremely dangerous.

But in the midst of the crisis, the king preferred to trust Dekan.

In recent decades, there have also been heroes who have defeated bishops of the Church of Resurrection.

But there has never been a record of defeating two bishops in such a short period of time.

In a sense, Dekan did manage to repel the mad bishop Clay.

The King said, "Very well, please let me know if you need anything. You are welcome to come again."

Dekan: "...Yes, thank you, Your Majesty."

Dekan increasingly felt that the king was like the uncle next door.

When Dekan left the town, the uncle next door looked similar.

She seemed to be hoping he would leave quickly, but dared not show it.

Dekan was used to it and didn't care.

Norton Kingdom is his home.

They don't care about other places either.

……

After entering the banquet hall.

Generally speaking, as the main characters at this celebration banquet, there will be many people of various backgrounds trying to curry favor with them.

However, the current reality is that, apart from a few bolder groups, such as those from the southern countries, who dare to come and have a friendly encounter with them.

Everyone else kept their distance with great politeness.

Whether out of politeness or some other emotion, everyone in the banquet hall was praising Dekan's achievements.

He proved with his abilities that even without the title of Pain Bishop, he was a true Pain Bishop-level figure.

If it were the last time in Tristine City, many people would think that Dekan and Chloeux were the support, while the main force that defeated Evans was the eighth-level special-grade card maker Ice Princess and the Holy Knight Judith of the Sun God Cult.

This time, everyone realized that it was Dekan who truly destroyed Evans.

Clearly, he managed to deal with the two bishops this time without relying on the assistance of any eighth-tier powerhouses.

He is an extremely terrifying and demonic man.
