The magic cards I made are absolutely flawless!

"I'm doing this for your own good; I want to save you."

"If you had left Phantom Canyon so rashly, you might have really died."

"Do you remember the spell card I used at the start of the game?"

As he spoke, Dekan took out a spell card.

Show it to Frata.

This was precisely the spell card that Frata was unable to identify successfully at the time.

"Quickly check the effect of this card."

The moment Dekan finished speaking, orange ripples appeared on the card, causing Frata's heart to pound.

Pain Spreads

[Category: Spell Card]

[Rarity: Orange Epic]

[Class: 3]

[Effect: Inflicts the "Pain Spreads" status on the enemy, which cannot be dispelled. The enemy will not feel any pain until the status ends; upon its end, all pain experienced during the status's duration will erupt instantly.]

[Note: Old lady! I bet you won't see this card!]

"Waaaaah!"

Frata's eyes widened, and he shook his head frantically in terror, desperately trying to speak but unable to utter a sound.

"I know you're thinking you can avoid this deadly pain by maintaining [Pain Shield]. But have you even read the instruction manual for the Shadow World Activator?"

"The moment you leave the artificial shadow world, all your states will be cleared."

This includes pain spread and pain shielding.

In other words, the moment Frata left the Shadow World, he would have taken the hit without any pain shielding, no matter what!

"I mean, hypothetically, just a scenario. What if, in a little while, there's a down-on-his-luck poet waiting for you outside?"

"Waaaaah!" (Impossible!)

Although Frata couldn't speak, Dekan could read the fear and struggle written on his face.

"Who says I only have one Poet of the Broken Age? Look at the one I've summoned now, isn't it a little different from my old one?"

Dekan pointed to the dilapidated poet behind him.

Compared to the previous all-black attire, it now has an added touch of blue glow.

“I already gave Chloex a broken poet card, and he’s standing outside, ready to summon you as you come out.”

off the field.

Everyone looked at Chloeux, who was sitting in the audience.

Chloeux: "???"

Suddenly becoming the center of attention, Cornelia next to her was so startled that she dropped the popcorn in her hand.

Chloeux was also completely bewildered.

At this moment, everyone understood.

Dekan is in Hufrata!

There is no second one!

Dekan simply used his card-making skills to give the Broken Poet a new skin!

Inside the Phantom Canyon, Dekan slowly paced around Frata.

"Hehe, let me test you. When I summoned the Broken Bard, I already inflicted a 60x Heartbreak attack on you. So how many times will you suffer a Heartbreak attack when you leave the instance?"

"Whoosh!!!"

In Phantom Canyon, there is only 1/4 pain, so the 60x pain that Dekan just applied actually has a 15x effect.

However, if this damage is recorded by [Pain Spreads], and then Vlata is affected by the Ruined Poet outside the arena when he leaves the Shadow World, the damage will be multiplied by 150!

His heart might just fail!

Even if they are lucky enough to survive, they will probably spend the rest of their lives in bed.

Do you regret what you did to Chloeux?

Frata was on the verge of tears. He wanted to apologize to Chloeux off the field through the screen, but he couldn't get the words out.

"Alright, don't worry too much. I always repay evil with kindness and won't make things difficult for you."

"The choice is yours now. Do you want to admit defeat?"

Dekan asked with a light laugh.

Frata nodded vigorously.

Dekan turned around and spread his arms wide towards the sky: "Classmates, Frata has conceded defeat. According to our bet, he can no longer cause trouble for Chloix."

At this point, Dekan stopped talking, then turned back to look at Frata, smiling without saying a word.

"Waaah!" (Please help me stop this spreading pain!)

Frata's expression was now filled with anxiety mixed with fear.

"Hmph, when did I ever say I would help you get rid of it?"

Dekan finally couldn't help but let out a smile that was about to bloom on his face.

It's like the mastermind behind a hugely successful prank.

Frata finally understood what Dekan meant!

If Dekan leaves Phantom Canyon at this point.

Although the artificial world will rule against Dekan, Frata has already acknowledged and surrendered to Dekan in front of everyone!

Their bet has a definitive result!

Regardless of whether the outside Chloex truly has a "Ruined Poet".

If Dekan gets out first and summons the Broken Poet outside, Frata will definitely suffer 150 times the damage from the Heartbreak attack!

He was deceived by Dekan.

They rashly agreed to Dekan's surrender offer.

Now we're truly in a dead end!

"Waaaaah!" (No! You can't do this! You'll get expelled from school!)

"Huh? What are you talking about? I don't understand. We signed a waiver of liability, what do I have to do with the inherent risks of the artificial shadow world?"

"Waaah!"

"I'm leaving now! You can leave Phantom Canyon whenever you're ready!"

"Waaah!" (No, don't go, please let me go!)

"I, being kind-hearted, never intended to harm you, so why would I let you go..."

With those words, Dekan's figure disappeared into Phantom Canyon.

Only a desperate Frata was left lying on the ground, staring blankly ahead.

The duel ends when one of the duelists leaves the arena.

To give duelists time to recover, they will not be forced to teleport away.

Duelists may choose to leave once they are ready.

......

After leaving Phantom Canyon, Dekan stretched.

Just like I came back from a walk.
