There’s Absolutely No Problem With The Magic Cards I Made!

Chapter 119: Dekan's Great Compassion For All Beings

"Wuu, wuuu!"

Isabel let out an angry sound, but she couldn't even curse properly.

Although she had heard about Dekan having a card specifically for disrupting speech functions, experiencing the disgusting effect of "gag" first hand made her truly understand how vile it was. She also realized that Dekan, this annoying guy, enjoyed messing with people's mental states, deliberately intervening at the crucial moment.

What made things worse was that now Dekan knew the complete effect and usage mechanism for the "Blood Pact Incantation."

The denizens of the underworld weren't frightening; what was frightening was when they saw through all your secrets.

The sense of crisis turned into a chill, instantly running from Isabel's tailbone to the back of her head. She didn't dare to immediately use purification magic to lift the gag spell; instead, she remained vigilant observing all directions.

Dekan must be lurking nearby!

If she dispelled the gag spell too easily, she might not even finish saying the last word before getting hit by a spell similar to "Your Granddaddy’s Gag." Then, she would be deceived into wasting a purification spell.

Dekan's uniquely created abnormal status, "gag," had a low cost for its imposition. Spells that interfered with the throat and vocal cords were simpler than most poison spells. However, in general, few people in the world would focus on researching such malicious spells.

Apart from guarding against Dekan, there was another troublesome guy to watch out for.

In theory, Dekan shouldn't be able to evade her detection as she was a tier 7 assassin. He must have high-tier helpers.

Before Isabel could thoroughly investigate Dekan's whereabouts, suddenly, the ground covered in frost began to reflect a bright light.

Isabel didn't even have time to close her eyes; the entire world had turned into light!

It was the "Solar Flare," Dekan's specially crafted blinding light magic.

"Wuu, wuu, wuuu!" Isabel roared in anger.

Due to Isabel's early use of "Pain Nullification," she couldn't feel the stabbing pain that should have come from her eyeballs.

But she knew her eyes were uncontrollably tearing up.

For the first time, she realized how troublesome it was to fight against denizens of the underworld.

This super flash couldn't have a significant impact on her scouting abilities since she had already used her perception skills for reconnaissance, and searching didn't necessarily require eyes.

Now, she finally found Dekan's hiding place based on the direction of the Solar Flare.

These two bastards; they had actually used invisibility magic and wind magic to hide in the sky just now!

Even someone as excellent a scout as Isabel wouldn't be bored enough to investigate invisible units dozens of meters above!

As soon as she locked onto the two in the sky, Isabel felt a powerful surge of magical energy.

This magic came from Dekan's accomplice!

However, she couldn't immediately see the appearance of Dekan's companion with her eyes.

Firelight shimmered in the sky.

As if the sun were about to fall.

The flaming spear, suddenly appearing where Croix's staff pointed, descended like thunder and struck the ground.

"Wuuuu!"

Isabel instinctively withdrew, avoiding the incoming magical attack.

However, she wasn’t able to bring the Ice Princess with her.

Blood Pact Incantation’s ritual was forcibly interrupted.

The intensity of the recent magical attack made Isabel’s heart beat rapidly.

Even if it was only tier 6 fire magic, in terms of accuracy and power, it exceeded tier 6 category.

If she took it directly, Isabel might not fare well.

However, the target of this attack seemed to be aimed at Ice Princess!

With her severe injuries, the Ice Princess couldn't possibly survive.

Isabel glared at the chaotic ground covered and burning with flames where Ice Princess lay. She wanted to roar but couldn't speak.

She hadn't expected Dekan to be so ruthless.

To prevent her from capturing the tier 8 special class card maker, he killed the Ice Princess without hesitation as soon as he appeared.

Now Isabel could only look up at the sky, at the two figures, with hatred.

Dekan and Croix stood with their backs to the sun, and behind them, it seemed as if a divine light was shining down from the clouds.

They descended to the ground as if two celestial beings had gracefully landed.

What was particularly strange was that both of them wore sunglasses, and their sacred and majestic figures carried an indescribable arrogance.

Especially Dekan, his outfit had a touch of style that resembled a person with great power.

"Namo Mafia Godfather Bodhisattva, great compassion saves all beings," Dekan calmly uttered words that Isabel couldn't understand as soon as he landed.

He took off his sunglasses, gazing at Isabel with a somewhat compassionate look.

This made Isabel's eye twitch.

Were they looking down on her?

Since "Your Granddaddy’s Gag" was only a tier 2 magic spell and Isabel was a tier 7 assassin, it wasn’t able to control her for a very long time.

She felt like she could finally speak.

"You two, pay attention. With the death of the Ice Princess, the freed Destruction Demon Lord will destroy Tristin City! It will be you who personally massacred everyone in Tristin City! All of this is your fault!" Isabel shouted in a slightly frenzied manner, pointing in the direction of the Ice Princess.

However, not far away, within the engulfing flames, Ice Princess, with closed eyes, although enduring pain, looked strangely serene.

Even though she didn't know what happened that caused Isabel to interrupt her ritual declaration at a crucial moment…

Even though she didn’t know who had attacked her with this soul-burning fire magic…

She was grateful to the person who could end her life.

Allowing her to die by her own will.

And granting her release.

She had lost.

She couldn't protect the people of Tristin City...

But now that reinforcements had arrived, there was still hope.

The last thing she could do was to use the last traces of magic in her shattered body to suppress the Destruction Demon Lord for even one more second.

Then, she would bid farewell to this beautiful yet cruel world...

One second passed.

Two seconds passed.

...

After several seconds passed, Ice Princess gradually felt that something was off.

The fire was painful, but why did she feel that her condition was recovering?

Confused, Ice Princess propped herself up, looking around like a girl who had just woken up.

Not far away, three people were all looking at her.

Isabel's expression was as if she had seen a ghost.

Meanwhile, Dekan and Croix were looking at her with a contented smile, as if two physicians who had just finished a successful consultation.

"It's you!"

Ice Princess looked at Dekan, and in her clear and bright silver pupils, it seemed like a radiance was rippling.

She had thought that the most regrettable thing in her long life must be ignoring the seemingly absurd advice from that young man.

In what she believed to be the last few seconds of her life, she contemplated repeatedly.

If she had spoken a few words with that young man this morning, would the outcome change?

But she knew it was all futile.

Not only did she abandon her own hope, but she also pushed away the person who wanted to save her.

Unexpectedly, at this darkest moment, the one coming to her rescue again was that mysterious young man.
