The magic cards I made are absolutely flawless!

Frata and Dekan met eyes, a sinister smile playing on their lips.

"Just wait until I completely control you, consider this a lesson for you."

Frata chuckled and said.

Then three cards shimmering with a crystalline purple light appeared in his hand, summoning three Tier 5 summons!

Three imposing undead armors stood beside Frata.

Their heavy black armor exuded a chilling aura, and their greatswords struck the ground with a deafening roar.

If it weren't for those flame-like, deep blue pupils, it would be hard to believe that these were three summoned creatures.

"Flata, surely not?"

Some people in the audience couldn't help but say this.

"This guy is really rich. In order to deal with Dekan, he specially went out at noon to get three countermeasure cards."

Frata summoned three [Undead Armor] cards.

[Undead Armor]

[Category: Summoning Card]

[Grade: Purple Rare]

[Class: 5]

[Effect: When this summoned creature is defeated, it cannot be defeated without receiving sufficient fire/light/holy damage and will revive after 15 seconds, becoming even stronger.]

[Note: I refuse to back down!]

As non-living beings of the undead type, they cannot perceive pain.

Even if you forcefully attack Dekan, he will not lose his combat ability due to the pain he feels in response to Dekan.

Moreover, the Undead Armor possesses extremely high defense and durability.

Even if Dekan brought the strongest Tier 3 spell cards, he would not be able to break through it.

Even if Dekan pulls off some amazing maneuvers and manages to take down the Undead Armor, he still won't be able to completely destroy it.

It's fair to say that Dekan had virtually no way of dealing with these three undead armored warriors on his own.

[The duel begins.]

The countdown ended, and both were ready for battle.

Frata first took out a [Pain Shield] and cast it on himself.

Meanwhile, Dekan also used a spell card with an unknown effect: [???].

This spell card seems to be somewhat special.

Even though Dekan clearly triggered it just now, Frata couldn't interpret its effect using the Identify skill.

Logically speaking, even a third-tier card that has been encrypted should not be able to escape the identification of a fifth-tier Frata.

Frata felt a sense of apprehension and did not choose to attack Dekan rashly.

On the one hand, we don't know what spell card Dekan just used, and on the other hand, we're not entirely sure if Dekan has any other cards that reflect damage.

He first focused his attention on directing the three undead armors to attack Dekan.

The safest way to deal with Dekan is to use a Tier 5 summon.

This is also the most reliable way to dominate weaker opponents.

Back in the Demon Academy, Faceless Man's strategy for dealing with Dekan was absolutely correct.

Unfortunately, the Faceless One did not anticipate Dekan's heart-wrenching attack, nor did he carry any cards that could block pain, nor did he possess any summons like the [Undead Armor].

"Nice card. I wish I could give you a Sun God card."

Dekan sighed as he watched the three undead warriors charging toward him.

Whenever there are three monsters on the opposing team, Dekan feels an itch to help his opponent sacrifice those monsters as offerings to the gods.

Unfortunately, Dekan is far from being able to produce cards of that caliber.

However, he had anticipated that Frata would use targeted high-level summons to overwhelm him.

He also had a plan.

Dekan produced three equipment cards and tossed them out gently.

Instantly, three streaks of pitch-black light attached themselves to the [Ghost Armor].

A dark and menacing mask grew from the armor of each suit of armor.

Frata's heart tightened, and he quickly assessed the effects of the cards Dekan had used.

【Cursed Soul Mask】

[Category: Equipment Card]

[Grade: Blue Rare]

[Class: 2]

[Effect: Can be equipped on the opponent's summoned creature. The equipped creature cannot be unsummoned, and its mana cost is doubled.]

[Note: Summoning should be done from beginning to end.]

Seeing the results, Frata felt much more at ease.

He was initially worried that it might be one of those unreasonable control cards!

Generally speaking, it is difficult for Tier 2 equipment to control Tier 5 summons.

Unless the quality is extremely high and the conditions for achieving it are very demanding, it is impossible to achieve a state of complete control.

Fortunately, these are three meaningless junk cards.

"Hehe! Just..."

Just as Frata was about to taunt Dekan, Dekan activated another spell card.

Temptations in the mortal world

[Category: Spell Card]

[Grade: Purple Rare]

[Class: 2]

[Effect: Within a 100-meter radius, both players' mana consumption is doubled. Maintaining this card's effect will continuously drain the user's mana.]

[Note: Is this what a duel in the mortal realm looks like?]

Suddenly, the small island seemed to float with the light of fireflies, or as if a group of light fairies had descended and were playing there.

Frata's face instantly turned as black as the bottom of a pot.

Now his magical power is overflowing like a floodgate being opened!

Frata began to panic.

He knew he had to end this battle quickly!

Fortunately, as long as the three undead can reach Dekan.

One strike! Enough to take down Dekan!

However, just as he was thinking this, he saw Dekan grinning at him from across the room.

It was an incredibly sunny smile, seemingly devoid of any malice.

Is there still a surprise in store?

Frata felt a chill in his heart, and his eyes became anxious and uneasy.

Just as the three [Undead Armor] were about to hit Dekan, Dekan unsurprisingly pulled out another spell card.

Frosty air filled the air, and Dekan's body was instantly encased in ice!

He was like a puppet sealed inside an ice crystal gem!

063 Wouldn't Dekan target mages?

"Are you an animal?!"

The people of Frata were dumbfounded.

He could only roar at Dekan, who had turned into an ice sculpture.

The last card Dekan used was a spell card that Frata, as a mage, was very familiar with.

Although the price is high, many mages choose to bring one.

It is a crucial life-saving card.

[Ice Barrier]

[Category: Spell Card]

[Grade: Purple Rare]

[Class: 3]

[Effect: Freezes the user, granting them a Frost Armor that cannot be broken by attacks of tier 7 or lower for 30 seconds. During this time, the user cannot attack, move, or cast spells. Cannot be cast again for 1 minute after the effect ends.]

[Note: This can also be used as a life-saving trick in the summer.]

This was borrowed by Dekan from Chloix.

Although Dekan could buy one or make one himself.

However, it is not necessary at the moment.

This card is worth about 300 gold coins on the market, and buying it directly will deplete Dekan's savings.

If you want to make it yourself, Dekan needs to spend time studying the card's production steps first.

In addition, since Dekan was not good at creating cards using human magical scripts, he had to make significant modifications to this classic card designed by an ancient great mage before creating it.
