The magic cards I made are absolutely flawless!

“He used my likeness to do this... How am I supposed to live in the capital after this?”

Tata sobbed as she spoke.

The current Dekan undoubtedly looks like her future self.

Although she knew that her brother was not a living person.

I've also heard about his deeds in the underworld.

But seeing his true demonic nature in person was far more terrifying than I had imagined.

It was even scarier than the devilish fairy tales that Dekan told her!

and.

Even Tata couldn't tell how much of Dekan's performance—sometimes crying, sometimes laughing, sometimes with a blank expression—was genuine and how much was fake.

It's just like a capricious villain.

"...Tata, think positively."

Flora patted Tata's head to comfort her.

She also has a brother who is a real handful.

So I can really understand how Tata feels.

"Ok?"

Tata wiped away her tears, turned to Flora, and asked:

"Will he... will he tone it down a bit later?"

Flora shook her head, giving a regretful smile:

"He's only just getting started."

Tata: "...??"

Flora: "But if you stop caring about reputation from now on, you'll be the little devil of the capital! From now on, you'll have to protect me! I'm going to follow you!"

"Waaaaah..."

Tata finally burst into tears.

She was just a child.

I can't handle this kind of thing.

Because Tata's pitiful crying appearance was almost identical to Dekan's crying on screen earlier.

The nearby spectators were trembling with fear, thinking that something terrible had befallen them.

He wanted to run but dared not, so he could only pretend he couldn't see Tata, like he was in prison...

……

Inside the interrogation room at this moment.

Dekan held his head in his hands.

"Ahhh, my reputation!"

He thought he had been extremely restrained this time!

Everything they did was to do good deeds and accumulate merit.

Unexpectedly, the old scholar's surrender completely destroyed his good deeds.

Is he really a demon?

He was clearly doing the work of an exorcist saint!

Dekan was deeply conflicted and walked out of the interrogation room, looking somewhat lost.

He wanted to leave the first level of the demonic prison that had caused him so much pain.

What a lousy, godforsaken place this is!

Although Dekan could still capture another demon to torment.

But his body couldn't take it anymore.

Let's set aside the issue of mana consumption for now.

After more than ten emotional attacks and mental clashes, he himself was in a somewhat dazed state.

After all, it puts a considerable burden on one's heart and brain.

You need to rest for at least a day before continuing; otherwise, if you force yourself to continue, you will either get injured or, even if you make it to the next level, you will no longer be at full strength.

While staying on the first floor for a few more days might be a good option for racking up points.

But with each additional day he stayed, his companions might be in greater danger.

Chloeux should be able to protect himself without any problems.

If Cornelia and Nyanko-sensei are separated, things are probably quite dangerous now.

He needs to find it as soon as possible.

And there's something that Dekan cares about a lot.

The problem is that he doesn't know the map of the entire Demon Realm.

Besides rescuing the Dark Saintess and escaping from prison, another challenge lies in whether they can successfully escape the Demon Realm within the allotted time after escaping from prison.

We must allow as much time as possible.

After thinking it over, Dekan decided to head to the second floor as soon as possible.

However, before using the portal on the first floor to travel to the second floor.

Dekan decided to go buy some things first.

He returned to the warden's office on the first floor and found the guiding demon.

The guiding demon appears to still be busy with official duties.

I don't really want to talk to Dekan.

"Can I use Demon Points to buy things from you?"

Upon entering the office, Dekan got straight to the point and asked.

Dekan could sense that this demon was very strong, probably at the eighth level, and he definitely couldn't defeat it alone.

Even if you bring your teammates, it will take a long time to plan how to sabotage this guy.

There's no need to cause trouble anymore, tear down shops, or beat up owners.

Let's hurry up and buy what we need before heading to the next floor.

"can."

The guiding demon raised his eyelids and glanced at Dekan before replying.

It seems this new demon has earned some demon points, and is now spending them all.

He was naturally happy to do such a thing.

But how long did this little devil go to work?

He probably only has two or three hundred demon points at most.

Thinking of this, the guiding demon smiled with a hint of disdain.

"I want to buy a map of the Demon Realm, as well as information about the other layers."

"Dekan said."

The guiding demon finally put down his pen and frowned as he looked at Dekan.

"A map of the Demon Realm costs 100 Demon Points; you can't afford the intelligence."

He understood the jailer's purpose in buying information from lower-level officials.

After all, for ambitious prison guards, this devilish prison is also a kind of training.

If they can survive all the way down, they will truly become pillars of society that even the Demon King would value.

But that's too early for a new demon.

"Please tell me the price first! What if I can afford it?"

Dekan said somewhat angrily, sounding just like an arrogant and ignorant office idiot.

"hehe."

The guiding demon shook his head with a cold laugh, saying in a mocking tone:

"I only have a small amount of information on the second-level warden and the warden here. If you can buy them now, I'll give you a discount of 200 demon points and 1000 demon points respectively. Do you want them?"

The guiding demon seemed convinced that Dekan couldn't possibly have 1000 demon points after only a short time.

So even if the information was something that 1000 demon points would not have been enough to buy, he reported it for 1000 demon points.

"I want them both."

Dekan smiled and handed the demon bracelet to the office worker.

The guiding demon: "???"

You've already got over a thousand Demon Points in just a few hours?

Did you steal it?

221 Dekan was reminded of fond memories.

The guiding demon awkwardly produced a magical device and scanned it across Dekan's demon bracelet.

Payment successfully deducted.

This guy actually has over a thousand demon points!

The guiding demon looked at the instrument with a bewildered expression, then resignedly put it away.
